. . and it was a grievous crime to go school without your cutlass on inspection day I re-read this and it's amazing to think that we (10-15 year old kids)actually took a potentially deadly weapon to school almost everyday with no major trouble. na wa o |

dayokanu: My mom used to teach in a public primary school and I follow her to school though I wasnt a pupil then because "my hand couldnt touch my ears" Damn, I remember farm labour! they actually gave us a plot to cut all through the school year.

Beaf, no mind Alhaji jare. You have made your case with enough satellite-grade pictures. Look, me I get important questions for you: So how can One become a Delta State Citizen? Is it by marriage or by selection? or nah by invitation ni? I want to come and enjoy these good things you are writing about jare. |
Culture / Re: Ifa Foundation International by Kilode1: 1:49am On Apr 27, 2012 |
Thank you very much for the valuable information. I've always wondered about these creative images myself, but I don't think one should sweat it. People are dynamic, Your Ori is different from mine and your Orisa can speak to you in a way that is different from the other person, so people can have different interpretations for what they feel and see in the course of their spiritual or philosophical journey. I like your concluding remarks also "things change" It's always nice to see people express their Ifa faith beyond colour and cultural boundaries. As long as they pay homage to the source. |
Culture / Re: Ifa Foundation International by Kilode1: 1:26am On Apr 27, 2012 |
Ptolomeus: This is an interesting theological question. My understanding is that Iyanifas are recognized as babalawos, I've read Wande Abimbola ( Awise Awo Agbaye) express this fact, and it is practised as such in Yorubaland. Yoruba religious culture rarely discriminate against women, except when it comes to specific Oro's with special traditions regarding the participation of our women folk. The idea of two-ness is a central theme in Yoruba Philosophical worldview, So I will be surprised if Ifa is against the "Ordination" of female Babalawos, now, due to the syncretic nature of Yoruba Religion it will be very easy for many to adopt and fuse of their own unique cultural and social beliefs with their interpretation of Ifa. Having said all that, I must stress that Yoruba Social Culture is another thing entirely, the contemporary social culture has elements of what can be termed "discrimination" depending on who you are speaking with. Although many conservative Yorubas will argue that these so called "discriminations" are just socially enforced expressions of different or dual purposes. |

tpia@: I suspect "Keeti" in Ilaje/Ikale usage means "How is it" or "How are you doing?" OR "Bawo ni" in Regular Yoruba I may be wrong though. |

You said you dont understand Ekiti? Wait until you hear AKOKO, fear go catch you. True. One of the most diffcult Yoruba dialect for me. |

Ilaje44: Give me a break! This is not Alhaji Harem. This is so true, plus Irele. And from the Owo side, if you go down a little bit towards owanland especially the Uzebba, Sabongida axis, actually up to Esanland (Ishan). The word similarities and usage are so familiar it's difficult not to see the connection. |
Politics / Re: Abacha's wife interview - her own words (translated from hausa by Negro_Ntn) by Kilode1: 5:05am On Apr 26, 2012 |
We did not get too far on this one. Then we opened women universities. Many of us women, particularly of Northern origin, were not allowed to enroll in co-educational schools of higher learning. So we opened this school since in America, England and everywhere in Europe they have universities for women only. We did our research on it very well and read up on it, but then Southerner women opposed it saying why should we segregate the genders that this is our problem in North, we are illiterate and why should we create a university for women. But now they have created open university in which people can learn and study remotely from home. I am hoping it produces great results. What is Maryam saying here? When did this opposition happen? Any other evidence to corroborate her story? There are Women only schools in the South and in many parts of the North too, they've been there before Nigeria got independence, even before Maryam was born, many are still flourishing till today. I don't buy this tale. By the way, many of her tales point to the problem we had with leadership in Nigeria, we still have those problems. These people build institutions and ideas around themselves without creating the strong framework that will enable those institutions outlast them. All these "We built this, we built that" cannot last if you don't systemize them with strong policies, robust laws without personally profiting from them. Negro_Nations, Well done my brother. |

5. The probe of the oil Sector has raised so much dust from certain segments of the polity such that it became clear that the intention was to frustrate it. For those who regard the oil sector as a secret society or sacred cow, I wish to state without equivocation that it is not. All public agencies in the oil sector are the creation of Acts of the National Assembly and this Honourable House has no powers to legislate for the creation of secret societies. |
Politics / Re: Subsidy: We Are Fighting Against Greedy People, They Fight Dirty -Tambuwal by Kilode1: 2:12am On Apr 25, 2012 |
10. I have heard all kinds of insinuations, including the one about anti-graft agencies waiting for a ‘harmonise version’ of this report before taking any action. Let me quickly say here that this is at best an excuse that can not stand after all the same agencies accept and investigate petitions from individuals, how much more resolutions of this House, there will be no such document so they should just go ahead and do their job and where they find any person or body culpable, they should proceed in accordance with the law. So EFCC is wait for Consitiutional Amendment and United Nation resolutions before they can investigate these gross allegations of graft and massive public theft ?? Funny people. And we are fighting corruption ? |

Make no mistake folks, the owners of Nigeria will work hard to spin this probe away. Be prepared. Let me also remind you that we are fighting against entrenched interests whose infectious greed has decimated our people. Therefore, be mindful that they will fight back, and they do fight dirty. Just do your job. Nothing favors my people better than when you all eat yourselves up. |
