please ignore him, he is one of those traditional bigots, when the western world are developing, some set of idiots are still doing oro, in "2015". He doesn't even know how to give constructive points, he just keep insulting, I already told him to return to 1865
It's sad. Ask the head hunter what oro has contributed to humanity he doesn't know because there is none. I don't know why he quoted my post--seems we're not allowed to feel revulsion at his types anymore.

Mr . Man if the punishment for a crime is a death sentence imposed by the state who is vested with the authority by the people , should the set punishment be set aside because of you?

The yoruba people have no problem with the rules around the oro. ..its law. . Even as we are in Nigeria. ..customary law is recognized
So again am telling you that you have no case. ..if you come out during oro whatever you see you will bare on your own.

If you don't like that, stay off the land
You are quoting the law like a fool who never saw the four walls of a classrom. The constitutional and moral right to life supercedes your traditions. The Criminal Code supercedes oro. Oro is not a law--even it once was that law was invalidated by the the law that set up the first Nigerian court in 1863 which abolished any customary law that was "repugnant to natural justice, equity and good conscience." There are court rulings in Nigeria finding people guilty of murder for traditional killings sanctioned by evil cults like Oro. Talk to your lawyer friends and get educated on the matter.

And you really should stop invoking Yoruba. Countless Yorubas have moved into civilisation and have spoken out against the practices. You are speaking for yourself and those elements who will rather remain the caves and progress with the rest of humanity.

Obviously you lack knowledge and worse, good comprehension.

If you think you are superman break the law of coming out when oro is underway.
You first response to me was an attempt to deflect - "Where did you see human sacrifice" or something like that. That shows the moral part of you know it's WRONG. But your slavish adherence to what you perversely consider your tradition won't let you speak truth to the matter. That makes you a moral dwarf who is beneath a worm. You argument has been shown up for what it is, now you have resorted to the refrain of daring me to go out during oro as if that is what this is all about.

They once sacrificed people in Europe. You know when they did it last? Many hundreds of years ago. But Macof says it's okay in 2015 as long as it's ignorant people who get caught. Shame.

Obviously when you meet urself in a foreign land best you mind your business and obey the laws. . Staying away from the oro is law
If you feel you are invincible and hard headed break the law and deal with the consequences

Everybody knows there are limitations to rights like movement


Again in ur stupidity you accuse yoruba traditions of human sacrifice without given a good example of one. . Mr. You have no case
I have not labeled Yoruba traditions and insults don't make you smart. Law? You say there is a law anywhere in Nigeria that allows you to ask people to say indoors and nip off the head of anyone found outside? Some of you should ask your schools to refund your fees.

And who talked about being invincible? You can't articulate an argument if your life depends on it.

See how stupid you are? I ask for examples of human sacrifice not sentence to a crime. .
The same oro practitioners Annonce the commencement of the ritual before time and order people to stay away. ..

If you think you own the land more than the landlords come out and surely when you break the law you get punished. ..ignorance is no excuse

Customary laws are a bit of the constitution btw
So it's about land ownership now. I see you even know know the constitution. It's okay to send out the town crier to announce that people should stay indoors at night in a supposedly free society against constitutional provisions for freedom of movement. Then people passing through the town at night and aren't privy to such announcements and even residents returning late from work can be relieved of their heads--against constitutional provisions for the right to life. I am citing the constitution because I suspect it might fly more with you than any appeals to common decency since you feel no revulsion at murder if it's sanctioned by tradition.

But you already answered me: you said ignorance is no excuse.

I don't know why you quoted my post anyway. I said decent people everywhere will look down on you with this your yeye tradition - why does that make you feel bad? You are a proud practitioner of these cults that carry out human sacrifice of people who get caught by ignorance which is no excuse; why not, at least, permit the rest of us our prerogative to hold you in contempt?

Are you sure you are OK? Where did you see human sacrifice?
Why do you people like to lie against african traditions?
What is Oro? Is it going on at Ife now? Why did the Hausa community rise up in anger at Shagamu years back after one of them was murdered by Oro practitioners with some "chiefs" coming out to defend the practice on TV? Why do you people like to lie about African traditions? Are you a civilised person or you and the murdering cultists of Ife and Shagamu and elsewhere should be consgined to caves where you seem to belong?
Politics › Re: Ooni Of Ife: Oba Sijuwade’s Body Arrives Palace From London – Premium Times by JuanDeDios: 10:23pm On Aug 01, 2015
The body, our sources said, is now lying in a secluded part of the palace called Ilegbo, a sacred place where all Oonis commune with their ancestors.

Ilegbo, we understand, is the place where highly-prized rituals [read HUMAN SACRIFICES] take place within the confinement of the palace.
It is also the place where the Are beaded crown, worn annually by the Ooni, is kept.

The Are crown is usually worn through the back because it is forbidden for the Ooni to see the inside of the beaded crown. And when it is worn, the rain must not touch it.

Our sources said only the monarch’s male children and highly ranked priests and chiefs are allowed to access that innermost recess of the palace and sight the Ooni’s remains.
In 2015. When the civilised world sees us as retarded children we make noise. When Jesus Christ or Mohammed or Gandhi or Mandela died nobody was sacrificed. Yeye people.

And is there a government in that country? What are the SSS and the police doing to secure Ife and protect citizens? What is the president doing?

These men deprived elderly Nigerians of the fruits of their long days of labouring for a secure future, out of nothing but pure greed and selfishness. Despite their huge salaries and allowances for things as trivial as newspapers, these self appointed tormentors of the Nigerian masses still had the inhumanity to dip their sticky fingers in the pensions of old workers, left to live what's left of their lives in pain, misery and unearned ridicule.

Orosanye should be made to pay fully and heavily for his crimes if found guilty.

EFCC is kicking...Change promised...Change delivered.
Trust the present EFCC at your peril. Until I see one of these big men in white prison boxers I won't. If Buhari wants to fight corruption he has to overhaul EFCC first and the judiciary has to sit up.
Health › Re: I'm Dying Of Social Killer(bad Breath) by JuanDeDios:
olad99:
Hello, am writing this with a saddened heart, am a young guy at the early
stage of my life and a student to be precise. am faced with a social death
disease(halitosis) I have been battling this for about 6 years now but all to no
avail.

here are some of my ordeals;
just about 4years ago(just finish my secondary education then), i met a
dentist, was advised on washing, in which i did it but seems the condition
remain the same. i was advised on regular wash every 6 month but couldn't
met the condition due to cost #5000/wash. Little did i know that this is just
the beginning of my social arrest.

in about two years ago 2014, i visited one of the government dental hospital @
Ibadan(Oyo state), was placed on dental routine, tongue scrapping
mouthwash, sugarless gum Among many option. I tried all this round but
seems none work for me. A year ago visited another private hospital @ Ibadan
was asked to pay for #3,000.00 card fee, what a gorgeous amount in the mind
of low income student but i manage to pay it (borrowed) for the sake of my
social freedom. to my great surprise they only recommend most of mouthwash
and mouth spray i have once used before. what a disappointment, it seems
they let me down even with their huge card fee.

I have no option other than to take to online solution to my problem it's then
that i now discover that my problems lies on group of bacteria that reside @
the back of the tongue that produce bad smelling chemicals (sulphide)
through online consultation from THERABREATH.COM . a renowned US based
dental organisation. I was recommended their product (therabreath
mouthwash) and their toothpaste which is fluoride free. Now the problem lies
in getting the mouthwash which is (#42,000) equivalent in naira with shipping
cost. No doubt it would work for me due to a lot of people's testimonies.
Right now am on hydrogen peroxide, which do not only suppress for FEW
hours(2) but with a known side effect( corrotion and lung irritation). as i write
now i don't even know what next as a solution to my problem.

i'm excluded from social gathering, don't have money to do the necessary, in
fact this has become an every seconds of my thinking.

IF YOU ARE A DENTIST READING THIS SAVE SOMEONE SOUL, I DON'T MIND
BEEN OFFERED A FREE SERVICE/ SERVICE @ GREAT DISCOUNT. OR IF YOU
ARE A PHILANTHROPIST SAVE MY SOUL, CASH OR DRUG DONATION WOULD
BE WELCOME.

I pray Almighty Gods makes you not witness this social killing disease. Amen

Politics › Buhari Euphoria Fades One Month In As Investors Await Direction by JuanDeDios(op): 3:00pm On Jun 29, 2015
Buhari euphoria fades one month in as investors await direction

June 29, 2015 | Filed under: Exclusive,main story | Author: PATRICK ATUANYA & ODINAKA ANUDU

11
Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari, who was sworn-in amid hopes of unleashing the country’s economic potential is marking his one month in office with little economic policy direction and infighting among party members.

Lawmakers on Thursday engaged in fisticuffs in parliament, during attempts to fill principal leadership positions in both chambers of the Nigerian legislature, with the Senate announcing an adjournment till 21 July.

With the recent setback, it means the president’s ministerial list may be delayed for another four weeks, pushing back movement on vital power, oil and gas, agriculture and tax reforms.

“The elections have derisked Nigeria and there was initially a lot of excitement from Private Equity players and other investors,” said Femi Olaloku, executive director, treasury, at tier –one lender UBA.

“People want to know the direction of government so they can participate.”

The delays characterise a month in which the initial euphoria that greeted Buhari’s election into office has steadily faded as the reality of governing a diverse nation of 170 million people and an economy reeling from a slump in oil prices dawned.

Nigeria’s benchmark NSE All Share Index which hit a five month high of 35,728 points on April 02 (the first trading day after presidential elections) has since given up 7.8 percent of its gains to close at 33,121.65 on Thursday.

Buhari, 73, emerged as president against most odds, three months ago, when his All Progressives Congress (APC) party won an election that became the first transfer of power to an opposition party from a ruling party in Nigeria’s 55-year history since gaining independence from the British.

After the elections, Africa focused Investment Bank Renaissance Capital, said “a Buhari win implies reformist policies,” while Jim O’Neill, former chairman of Goldman Sachs Asset Management, said former President Goodluck Jonathan’s loss would be viewed “positively” by foreign investors.

BusinessDay findings however show that a lot of investors are restraining from investments, pending when Buhari announces ministers or unveils a clear blueprint.

Ede Dafinone, chief executive officer, Sapele Integrated Industries Limited, recently told BusinessDay that he spoke with an ambassador from one of the European countries who plainly told him that a team of investors from his country said they were awaiting Buhari’s ministers.

Between May 29 and today, this restraint has persisted, as investors seem uncertain on whether the policies of the previous administration as contained in the National Industrial Revolution Plan, would be retained or jettisoned.

“I would not say that Buhari is slow, but one would have expected him to have unveiled his agenda to know the direction the economy will be moving,” said Muda Yusuf, director-general, Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry ,in a telephone chat.

As Nigeria reels under crude oil shocks, the mantra is economic diversification and non-oil exports. But non-oil exporters have no incentive as obtains in China, Brazil and other countries.

The only incentive meant to drive non-oil exports, called Export Expansion Grant, has been removed and exporters believe only a settled-down government can restore this incentive to help shore up foreign reserves.

Meanwhile, power is available to industrial zones for a maximum of only four hours in a day.

“Cost of power is enormous and could lead to massive shake-ups in existing factories,” said Frank Udemba Jacobs, president, Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN), in an interview in Lagos, adding that manufacturers spend N73.12 million on alternative power monthly on the average, while 40 percent of production costs also go in the same direction.

“This could hinder potential investment in the sector, as majority of manufacturing companies are under SME category,” Jacobs said.

Many Nigerian corporates have announced a slashing of their FY15E Capital expenditure (Capex) plans with Flour Mills, a blue chip consumer goods firm, planning to halve its Capex.

Growth in the first quarter of 2015, slowed to about 4 percent, on an annual basis, compared with 5.9 percent a quarter earlier, as the oil sector shrunk by 8.2 percent, the Nigerian Bureau of Statistics said.

The ongoing dollar shortage and lack of clarity on fuel subsidy payments have also constrained manufacturers and the business outlook.

“A guide on policy direction and the appointment of ministers are overdue. It is a “wait and see” approach by investors presently, as uncertainty trails the economy and financial markets,” Kayode Omosebi Team Member, Research, at United Capital Plc, said.

TV/Movies › Democracy And The Rule Of Law By Dotun Saseyi On Galaxy TV by JuanDeDios(op): 4:10pm On Jun 28, 2015
Nigeria's number one political programme, Dotun Saseyi's Democracy and the Rule of Law, came back on air today after a two weeks hiatus. I did not watch it from the beginning so I don't know if he offered any explanation but he had not deigned to inform his listeners before going off.

It is just as well that he brought back a good panel today, for I was becoming worried that my beloved programme was degenerating into a beer parlour-grade one. Doton Saseyi has a knack for getting the best analysts - Jiti Ogunye, Bello Aidelojie, Liborous Oshoma, Gbola Oba, Achike Chude - but of recent he had deviated from his own track record, making the programme lose its steam. On the day of the edition on Buruji Kashamu, for instance, I had stared round-eyed as my beloved programme quickly devolved into a panel of low intelligence and conspiracy theories, but Achike Chude came in and restored sanity to the programme.

Where is Jiti Ogunye? Mr Saseyi, bring back Jiti!

He, however, described their death as two less the number of criminals operating in the state.

Anambra would then become a crime-free state, as desired by the state government and law-abiding citizens,” he said.
