EducationRe: Yobe Adopts Hausa As Language Of Instruction In Schools by johnmattew: 6:03pm On Oct 22, 2019
NNEWIsuper:
that's illiteracy and disease, how can such people compete internationally?..I have no problem with anyone who speaks hausa or other African language but not knowing English means the person will never get to travel or have anything to do with anyone outside hausa speakers
how many Arabs,indians,Chinese,french,Latinos, Italians,Germans can speak English?...

Upon their backwardness?
upon ur inferiority complex??....Chinese,indians and Arabs teach in their local dialet first b4 English are they backward?.even Kenya and east Africans are doing the same

In case u don't know,the northern Europeans or Scandinavians and Dutch all speak English better than asians and Africans but they chose to silent their English capabilities..Ireland have realised the importance of their dialet, Irish,they have started teaching their kids Irish and most of their information are written in Irish in conjunction with English..french Canadians did the same too

Whatever be the case, it starts and ends in Nigeria.

I’ve seen people shouting extradition upandan, if Nigeria extradites him to the US, then know we’ll forever be their slaves.

Personally, I think he must have been arrested for something else. They’ve been in the game too long to make mistakes of money being traced back to them.

The arabs are not known to let FBI or interpol get easy access on their soil or citizens. There must be a bigger plot


Meanwhile, Nigerians are never organized when it comes to clean or dirty money. Too many loopholes, too much talk, too much noise, too much breadcrumbs, too much flaunting. You can drive a rolls Royce quietly and nobody will stress you, you know?

Lol at Mexico, look at el chapo junior, who born fbi or DEA or even government. That’s a perfect example of money being power. *sigh
but Joaquin'el chapo' Guzman is in jail in USA.....u don't even know which about extradition treaty between 2 nations...just last week maina assets was frozen in niger Republica as a result of previous agreement between naija and niger...same with Nigeria and UK on on going extradition process on diezani

I was in Zamfara last week, I saw where smugglers were smuggling goods including rice without any interruption by men of the Nigeria custom.
which country is the rice coming from??....all countries that border norther Nigeria are all landlocked..u think it's easy for smugglers to move their gooods from seme border to niger republic to Nigeria?...isn't that suicidal?

no pictures or videos?....I see this report as a way of discrediting the border closure to make it look as if it's against Southerners...how can smuggling boom when niger republic is landlocked??...the cost of moving goods from coastal West Africa to niger republic is enough for smugglers to desist from the act

Take a look at the London double-decker buses or the European club buses then come back to your comment. City buses are not meant for inter-state travels; hence minimal attention is paid to aerodynamic designs.
London buses aren't meant for high speed travels... aerodynamic effect is negligible

20 years ago,there was nothing like lekki and...in 20 years time,lekki and ajah would be history.with the rate of sandfilling and poor drainage in Lagos State,in 10 years time, mainland will merge with island and there will be no need for 3rd mainland bridge.


the Lagos islanders think they are top in Lagos,in 15 years time,ayobo and mowe might be more valuable than banana island.

Lagos, Houston,Alexandra and Miami could be part of Atlantic and Mediterranean ocean in 2060

Leave road and potholes out of this matter... This is a clear case of poor and dangerous driving culture among our road users here in this part of the world.

If we had better roads, the carnage will be at an unprecedented and catastrophic level... Most Nigerians don't know how to drive. Just enter car and start speeding thinking "Fast and Furious" is not a work of fiction. Mtchewww. undecided

how is her anger?


Esan ladies are known for their anger (e fit boil stone)

but they are also hardworking and would give their all to see the family succeed or go higher no matter what it takes, but if u take them for granted hmmmm OYO is your case
u just made me smile....what u said is 100 percent correct.esan women anger is worse than that of amadioha and sango...they are also powerful physically( some dey beat their husbands sef)..however,they are among the most hardworking,faithful and supportive wives in Nigeria..it's very difficult to see a cheating esan woman.

The woman is yet to be fully recovered. I wasted over 600k in six different hospitals without knowing what was wrong with her. The illness started exactly on the 18th if October last year and we only got to know what was wrong January 24th this year. No one dares Esan tradition and go Scot free. Even the prophetess that revealed what happened to us candidly told us she has no solution . The only solution was taking her, almost dead to my village. Even as an Esan man, i feared what I saw. I never knew some spirit were monitoring my so called wife. Despite her juju and spiritual powers , she succumbed to Esan tradition. But I will never marry another Yoruba again in my life.
just go and perform some traditional rite.. otherwise,u or ur kids could be affected.

there is a reason why mercy Johnson isn't acting romantic movies anymore...thats because she is married to an esan man.


if a man woo or toast the wife of an esan man,she is supposed to let her husband know

my mother lost his cousin some years back...the man and his son had a quarrel and his son told his dad that he isn't his father and also hauled insults at him.fews weeks after,he had an accident with no injuries.doctors did scan on him and nothing was wrong,yet he was sick..few days after he died.not up to a month after his demise,his son became sick..his mother later confessed how his son and his father had a brawl.


just last year,my mother lost his elder sister.she slept and never woke up.we all thought she died as a result of HBP....few months after her burial,a man told her son how his mother went to eat at a party in his ex-husband's home( which is forbidden)


another dangerous one is when a woman insults her husband or draw his peni.s during a fight... consequently,they could lose their kids

no matter how powerful u are ,even if u are a pastor..esan tradition doesn't respect anybody.. sometimes,I keep wondering the enforcers of this traditional laws

I appreciate ur contribution but meeting the family that never got our back isn't an option. They are not going to reap where they didn't sow.

First, we were very young when our parents died. My dad first, then her dad and then our mum.
Second, we don't know much about family cuz from what we learnt, family were against our mum that she didn't allow their son send them financial assistance.
Third, so called family shaved our mums hair and forced her to drink the the water used to bath her husband corpse in front of us, we were just children and the sight isn't good.

Meeting family isn't an option here, we moved on a very long time ago. I just want someone from around to share how things are done, that's all.

Whatever I will be collecting from the groom, I intend sharing your everyone that has one way or the other contributed to our life.

PS: No family know about about whereabouts for over 15 years now. Likewise we don't know where they stay.
my uncle and Aunt did more than this...yet,we forgave them.

u can't avoid her father's people during marriage in esanland.u have no right to give her out...don't toy with esan tradition.the consequences could be deadly

go and meet her uncle.....esanland pride price is less than 50 naira..take some and return the other.we don't sell our daughters.

if she is marrying an esan man,it is forbidden to commit adultery or insult her husband.the consequences could be madness,death or death of the kids...except she does some rites

. As an Esan man, if u don't meet family members now, in the future u and your sister MUST surely look for them. Don't argue, just mark my words. Esan no be Yoruba oooo. I told my ex wife about Esan tradition but she waved it off and went into adultery, but at the end , she knew what she saw.
the adultery aspect is the most unique aspect of esanland.....most millennial thinks it's a joke.

esanland got weird custom and tradition that esan people don't toy with.
