Nigerians have revealed their surprise following the obituary poster of a man who is said to have died at the age of 170 (1848 - 2018).

The deceased identified as Pa Monday Agwalogu from Osisioma Ngwa local government area of Abia state, passed away in May 2018 after a brief sickness. 

The man who is believed to be the oldest in his village before his death, is to be buried next week Thursday and Friday (November 15th and 16th) in his community. 

Nigerian internet users have been wondering how possible this is - with some asking whether the family did the right calculation with the old man's age. 

The oldest person ever whose age has been verified is Jeanne Calment (1875–1997) of France, who died at the age of 122 years, 164 days.

This is a lie. From the poster, he doesn't even have greatgrandchildren. If he lived to 170, they probably took this picture of him 100 years ago and he probably started having kids at 100 years old. I doubt this man was up to 80. Nigerians lie about old people's age all the time.

Typical afonja and ranting nonsense out of envy. Michelle Obama is a Negroid Black not an African Black. Negroid blacks, who are black hebrews that migrated into Africa, whether men or women tend to have more testosterone/muscles than African Blacks, which is why they dominate sports wherever they are, whether in Nigeria or America. Who are Negroid blacks? Igbos and other Biafran tribes(Efik, Annang, Ibibio, Some Edo plus Igbanke in Edo, Agbor, Udoni, Ogoni, Igala, Idoma, Ijaw, Urhobo, e.t.c.), African Americans, blacks in Caribbean and other Hebrew tribes scattered around the world. African blacks usually have very low testosterone, that's why Hausa-Fulani and Yorubas men and women rarely have muscles, and rarely play sports because naturally they weren't created for hard sports or work. That's also why during slave trade, slave traders prefer Biafran tribes, and rarely touched Hausa-Fulani and Yorubas. What women dominate sports in Nigeria? Igbos and SS mostly. Which women have more muscles in Nigeria? Igbo and SS women. Coincidence? No, I just gave you the reason. Same in America and Caribbean, African women and Caribbean women also dominate sports there. Not all blacks are the same, white people know this fact, which is why they are against Biafra rising!

Hilarious.

IamPatriotic:
So it is true that the woman is an hermaphrodite, no wonder, she looks masculine.

Having a child through IVF = being a hermaphrodite?

Brilliant.

Dangote With His Investments In Nigeria, Running Into Tens Of Billions of Dollars, Spanning Oil, Gas, Cement, Sugar, Transport, etc employ only about 30,000 Nigerians.

MTN With Investments Of Over 10Billion Dollars employ about 8,000 people.

First Bank, Zenith Bank and GTB with capital base of over 3Trillion Naira combined, employ about 35000 Nigerians...

Then a Crook, with hidden assets in rogue countries, who can only boast of a Fruit Juice company and one elite University in a dusty town of Yola in Adamawa State, claims that he employs 100,000 Ghost People.

Does Atiku thinks the rest of Nigerians have limited and very low IQs like his brainless ipob pigs supporters?

It depends on what he's into. Some businesses are labour-intensive. I'm not saying he's not lying or not. I'm just saying your examples don't prove anything.

#1. Charging Your Phone Under The Pillow Overnight

Charging your phone under the pillow is one of the life threatening things people do every day. As a matter of fact, charging your phone under the pillow overnight is as risky as leaving your gas cooker on all through the night. When the charger gives up the heat, it usually has nowhere to go as there is no ventilation. This will automatically set the pillow on fire.

Bolded is dangerous?

Admin401:
Where are the atheist on Nairaland? The guys that know how the universe was built, and are very, very sure that nothing like spirituality lies within. Let them come and tell me how this story is false, I love listening to their coping mechanism.

Lol at "coping mechanism". This story doesn't amount to "proof" no matter how loosely defined, though.

prodam:
I wonder why a senator in Nigeria will still need destinies to be transferred to him? What kind of assertion is this.

That's what I don't get. Being a Nigerian senator means you've hit the jackpot alreaedy.

That's right. Guy is darn good.

I heard most of the buses are driven by chicks. Did Autojosh investigate that?

Darkseid:
They were not junk then but how about now. Ask yourself, when was the last time you went to a museum or do you even know anyone that has gone to a museum before to see art, I know I haven't. The few museums that we have here are all turning to rot.

Your assessment of the level of appreciation of art among Nigerians is accurate. But in the end you make an argument similar to the one being made by some white South Africans today that at the time they stole land and restricted black people to a small fraction of the country the land was mostly lying fallow. The fact is that those who owned the art works kept and care for them in the palace. They had no books - those artworks contained their history and folkways. Then they were stolen. This is why they must be returned. It does not matter that the generality of Nigerians don't appreciate art. The Binis certainly do. The British are welcome to buy our artworks if they want but what was stolen ought to be returned.

TAO11:

Conclusions like this is borne out of our usual assumption that the whites generally are naive and they don't have juju.

Oga the whites had juju and gun (The Greco-Roman civilization with its withes, wizards, gods, etc. quickly comes to mind). In fact, I read somewhere long ago about a time in the history of the British people when parliament passed a law banning any further practice of witchcraft. There would be no point banning it if they never practiced it for real.

We had only juju and cutlass, etc ... with no anti-bullet juju back den oo, because we needed to have guns first before we can come up with any invention of anti-bullet juju.

They had juju, guns, and whatever we had. So tell me how they won't colonize us.

So the British used juju on Benin - I guess that's why all the human sacrifices the natives made to ward off the invaders failed. Wonderful.

Darkseid:
Return wetin? Those things are better off where they are currently, at least they are being appreciated there. Bring it to Nigeria and watch it become junk in less than one year. How many museums in Nigeria are functioning let alone being up to standard

This is nonsense. Why do you think the people that made the art works do not appreciate them? Those things were not junk when the British looted them; they were well kept in the Oba's Palace. We are not against the export of art, but they should be properly negotiated and paid for, not stolen.

Bukasint:
That's why I was happy when I heard they Soliders shot them dead. They don't deserve to live at all.. Most of them needs to die. If it's possible we fan organize international day to arrest jobless youths in the north who doesn't have certificate and harvest their organs for those who desperately needs them, organs like kidney,heart, liver,etc....

Do you have sense at all?

GudluckIBB:
You all Politicians should learn from Anenih's death that no matter how much power and wealth you may have today,The very day Mr death will come knocking at your door,you are taking nonthing along

Anenih was a former Workd minister
Anenih was a former BOT Chairman of PDP
Anenih was the former SDP Chairman
Anenih Manipulated election results and gave people who didn't even contest elections victory

Anenih should have nothing less than 20 billion naira before his demise but today they all Vanity

cc
saraki
buhari
Tinubu
Ekweremadu
Okorocha
and many others should learn from Anenihs death and be kind to the people they were elected to serve

Thank you, my brother. I doubt Mr Anenih was buried with a single spoon of gold. Yet the country he played his part in ruining is here for his kids and grandkids.

DonFreshmoney:
The guy enter one chance.

Perhaps he was dealing with the devil before kasala burst

I doubt it. I know him. Tony's as gentle as a dove - would never hurt a fly.

deomelo:
You can not separate the VP's performance and competence from the President simply because the VP functions at the pleasure and direction of the President so this is actually the President performing.

In Public Administration, it's called delegation of duties.


Incompetence is when many of you can not apply basic common sense, simple logic and civic education about your government and how it functions.


With many of you as the so called Nigerian youths and leaders of tomorrow, Nigeria is in for a rough time.

I'll ignore your insults since you NL kids can't do without it especially when defending those who wreck your country.

You're spouting theories. Congratulations on your grasp of public administration. But what we have seen in the last three years is that Nigeria actually sees governance whenever Buhari goes on his sick leave or wherever it is he goes and Osinbajo is in charge. Once he returns, we return to ungovernance. Let's try this for your common sense and logical thinking skills: Of the seven points listed in the post I responded to, tell me which one is a specific action that was taken by the VP when your delegator-president was around.

yerokunphilips:
This man is the most active,most outstanding ,most knowledgeable ,most educated ,most handworking and and most efficient VP since 1999 . He's in the class of Gen Tunde idiagbon ,in the history of Nigeria VP .
Osibanjo is too intelligent to be PMB vice
1 Stop naira from falling and forced it down to 360 when it was going close to 600 to a dollars
2 ) Talk to both the youth and elders of Niger Delta and the bombing of pipeline stopped
3 ) Sack DSS boss
4) Order the restructuring of SARS
5)In charge of N Power ,the only program that is working fine in this administration .
6) He have interacted more with all tribes than any VP in Nigeria history .
7) Very loyal to his boss
How I wish is the one contesting for the one seat .
God Bless PYO .God bless Nigeria

I agree. Unfortunately, it's Buhari, the personification of incompetence whose brief is to take Nigeria from misgovernance to ungovernance, who's running for president. Sad.

adioolayi:
Queues seen at most filling stations... some shut!
why are we doing this to ourselves for God's sake
Just because of an envisage strike and the PMS dealers are back to ripping off Nigerians. Do we call this PMB's problem or problems created by cabals ...God help this country!

Fuel is not immune to market forces. I'm not even sure there's a legislation stipulating that fuel is a security commodity that can't be hoarded. Blame the governors for imposing this strike on Nigerians.

seunmsg:
God bless this professor. At least, nobody can accuse him of working for APC. The ASUU strike is totally uncalled for. They are just trying to use the current political atmosphere to blackmail the Federal government into submission. All men of good conscience like this professor must condemn ASUU for their selfishness and insensitivity.


Cc: lalasticlala, this should be on front page.

Well, you don't know he isn't. Just saying.

What's IBB's electoral value in modern day Nigeria?

I wonder. I can't figure out why they won't stop visiting the old recidivist.

Thank you, Adieza

Buhari? What's the House of Assembly doing?

Olalan:
The father isn't telling the true story behind his absurd action

Possible. Could also be there's no good reason. Might just be a show of na-me-be-this.

LuciferYaweh:
Did I not say this dude might be innocent?

He probably ran away out of fear because he knows he has no one to defend him and it will be pretty hard to convince anyone of his innocence.

I still feel the wife was involved in this.

She most likely hired the assasins knowing it would stick more on the cook since he was just employed.

Reason why his life was spared too.


The wife has a hand in this.

Good post. But how this matter take consign feminists?

crossfm:
Their is always two side to a story.sometimes their is morethan two sides to a story.I pray the police do their home work well.

Nigeria police? Well, pray hard. But he's lucky this is already out in the open. Should make unworthwhile for the police to torture him into confessing. Poor kid.

Lifestone:
But bro why do you wear shirts, T shirt and suits (if you do) which are English wears? and not only native attires. Sometimes we over dramatize things.

I agree op's dramatizing a bit. But those colonial relics called wigs should have no place here in 2018.

Pomposity. I guess they think it'd rob them of the some of the "efisy". It's "kolo mentality" at its best.

Sagay212:
lol...so while placing a call with the stones flying in from different angles and the vilolent protesters getting closer, what do you do? leave the vehicle containing the ammunition and run away to call police to use non-lethal force. The protesters that are not scared of gun shots fired to the air will be scared of non- lethal force. Do you know what will happen if the shiite protesters manage to catch just one soldier or are able to get hold of the truck of ammunition? Shebi you are in your father's house eating indomie and browsing. You think it is beans to face a bunch of mad people or you did not see a video of the police man that shites murdered.

[quote author=Sagay212 post=72635561]You put it well in bolded. When people are not scared of bullets, there's only one sensible thing left for you to do - non-lethal force. Or have you ever heard that you're firing tear gas or hot water or pepper at people and they kept coming? No. They disperse. We turned Boko Haram into what it is today by killing them when they were not yet killing us. That is exactly what we are doing with Shiites now. But I know this will fly right over your head. The only thing your type understand is shoot 'em up. You people will enjoy the mess you're creating.

And what's your point about the policeman who was killed? That we should withdraw the police from our streets and deploy the army? You've obviously heard of the word reinforcement but it seems you don't know what it means.

APC and Buhari did a very bad job. Hasty and Messy piece of work.

How can he pass and fail a subject in one exam?



Make una compare

Which subject did he pass and fail?

Sagay212:
everybody keeps running their mouth. if they give you uniform and gun to maintain peacd and you try to ensure peaceful protest but protesters start throwing stones at you, biko what will you do? You have amunition to guide and deliver to a particular location. will you leave the ammunition and run away, will you wait for them to injure and probably stone you to death? Instead of blaiming the NA and forming human rights, please tell us what you will do as a soldier in that situation.

I'd place a call to the commissioner of police to send policemen to disperse them with non-lethal force.
