Thanks for the Education Metaphysical.

One of the two houses built at the Bar Beach in those days belonged to Dr. Maja. The other one belonged to a familia family since we used to go for picnic there.

All the Brazilian houses at Gbamgbose and the Da Rocher Water House or others houses like that of S. B Bakare and Abiola are in bad shape.

Did you mention Government declaring them historical sites? The same people who scam their families to buy family properties at prices unheard of. Otherwise, send Government workers to mark them for demolition.

Well, I cannot blame you since we or most of us wish for the best. But reality?

I like Peter Obi better than the other two Presidential candidates.

This only shows how far Nigeria has sunk low chosing between evils.

Buhari fooled us and we saw a terrorist.

Jonathan fooled us and we saw a Biafran surrounded by only Igbo in the most powerful positions in his cabinet.

Peter Obi needs to sue those who claimed to be his drug mules.

I will rather vote for an activist.

Sometimes it is best to leave ignoramus unanswered.

But this guy pretend to be educated and create a reputation against African cultures by looking for the worst in our traditional family values in order to justify those who indoctrinated Africans to call them Saints in Churches and Mosques.

Is the worst form of Africa's blemishes in the past worse than your foreign rituals of sacrificing Blacks in broad daylight for organs, promotions in their constituted Police, clans and Armies for trophies? Not yesterday but still going on today?

These are the same guys that justify Structural Adjustment, open liberal markets unknown to any other country including those of his masters.

How far and when are you going to stay out of Africa's business since that is how you make a living.

He hardly see anything good about Africa except advice on how to sell us for profit. How far has Nigeria gone down the tube on your educated ignorance?

mrvitalis:
I don't understand why people think they can police morality , there is absolutely no static morals

African family system that married out children ?
That's enslaved people ?
That beloved in human sacrifice ?

Did indigenous female child really cover up ? Before the white man came ?

Be careful what u wish for

Morality has never been our problem ...never

Nobody should make any comment on Igbo unless you want to encourage their hate against everyone including themselves.

Where has all the hate, fake statistics and blasting empty vessel taken you?

You went from highly respected throughout the world, to what?

This is why prominent folks use different name to be anonymous.

Any comment from Seun, no matter how innocently made brings out bile from those jealous of his success.

Tell us how some of you come to the conclusion that he has no intellect or otherwise, that he is tribal because he mentioned your god?

Yet these are folks that can never see or say anything good about other other ethnic groups.

If any of you have a tenth of his common sense or intellect, individual contributions could have saved the jobless Youths in this country.

At the end of the day, they want him to sell Nairaland in exchange for ritual, 419 and drug money. Why can't you start your own endeavors and compete with him, losers?

Seun, next time go anonymous!

The image of Igbo was not built today. They had people most Africans admired and proud of.

Somehow they squandered everything inside and outside Africa.

We all need to go back home and rebuild from the ground up.

After leaving school and you start earning, spend less than you make unless your pay cannot take you home.

Saving is a habit just in case you get into worse situation. Shiitt happens, be prepared.

Pray for Tinubu to live longer watching others but him becoming President.

Funso Williams and Pa Dawudo tormenting him from their graves.

Pray that he does not die because Lagos State has a lot of money to recover.

I don't care if he dances naked.

It is not only Danjuma that said the same thing Bishop claimed.

Obasanjo said the same thing and went further to accuse Buhari.

Invite both of them for questioning.

Fulani and U.S Republicans like 5 and 6.

in Nigeria, na $100.000.oo we dey give.

In Zimbabwe, di moni dem give you na fake dollar. Di car sef na stolen ones from Canada. RCMP go catch up with you.

Self-hate from another Black girl to Black.

The same people that proudly claim you outside the Country will kidnapping you for ransom if they spot you at home.

My fileagee go beta.

Do you want an epistle or one word?

Liberal market to those that refused to liberalize theirs because we want whatever they touch.

Israeli nationalists chant racist slogans in Jerusalem march

Israeli nationalists chant racist slogans in Jerusalem march

JERUSALEM (AP) — Thousands of Israeli nationalists, some of them chanting “Death to Arabs,” paraded through the heart of the main Palestinian thoroughfare in Jerusalem’s Old City on Sunday, in a show of force that risked setting off a new wave of violence in the tense city.

The crowds, who were overwhelmingly young Orthodox Jewish men, were celebrating Jerusalem Day -- an Israeli holiday that marks the capture of the Old City in the 1967 Mideast war. Palestinians see the event, which passes through the heart of the Muslim Quarter, as a provocation. Last year, the parade helped trigger an 11-day war with Gaza militants, and this year’s march drew condemnations from the Palestinians and neighboring Jordan.

You sound and echo your master's voice.

If gun doesn't kill people why use it to kill?

The people that sound like you are interest groups that facilitate the culture of violence against their opponents.

They declare that only mental people shoot people so that their militia groups can get light punishment while those committing less crimes rot in jail or shot on sight.

Ndi Iberibe.



This article proves three things:

1. Gun laws doesn't stop criminals from shooting people;

2. Good people carrying guns are the best way to stop criminals from shooting people;

3. Violent criminals who use their agency to take away others freedom should be locked up and lose their freedom.

How much more can anyone get from a dead horse? They just won't leave Nigeria alone. They claim it keeps on giving.

Those of us that think you cannot do much with a dead horse do not realize Nigeria has another value.

Using the country as a collateral to borrow foreign money against the new generation of Youths that are running out instead of facing their enemies.

Good points. The reason Neanderthals disappeared from the world.

I think some of their recessed DNA traces may reappear though.

RedboneSmith:
No.

There's still a little controversy about how Neanderthals should be classified. They are generally classifed as Homo neanderthalensis , which would mean that they are a different species [since their species name, neanderthalensis, is different from ours, which is sapiens.]

Other taxonomists however classify them as Homo sapiens neanderthalensis, which will mean that they are the same species as us, Homo sapiens sapiens, but not the same subspecies. In contrast, all modern humans are the same species and the same subspecies (Homo sapiens sapiens.

Whichever taxonomy you go with, Neanderthals are not exactly the same as modern humans. But this raises the question: how come many modern-day Europeans have Neanderthal DNA? Because Neanderthal DNA among Europeans means that Homo sapiens sapiens played hanky panky with Neanderthals the natural way, and produced viable non-sterile offspring. If we say that this is only possible with animals of the same species, then it should mean Neanderthals and us are the same species.

Well, not exactly. Genetic studies have actually shown that relations between humans and Neanderthals only rarely proved successful and that in cases where they were successful, the offspring was often sterile. Virile Neanderthal-Sapiens hybrid were not as common as one might think. See this study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4072735

Also, and perhaps more important than the previous point, Neanderthal DNA has been sequenced and compared to the DNA of extant human types. We are actually very different from them on a genetic level.

I cannot believe some Africans that supported Structural Adjustment then can still boldly come out now to justify the killer of middle class in Nigeria in particular and Africa generally.

This is after IMF has come out to state that they were wrong since they did not take the cultural and blah blah into consideration.

They got their way anyway. They can now by Africa or Nigeria for a dollar.

Of all the problems in Nigeria, Seun is your problem?

Without Nairaland, your problems and Nigeria problems will be solved, abi.

Even if you include all the social media and print papers at home and abroad, your devils will not leave you. They will love your distraction.

Ndi Ara.

A master piece by Ganjude.

Yes Igbo love money. But whose money is it in the first place?

Please note that the one million naira given today is less than 20 pounds given by Awo.

They will soon skata when their Presidential candidate is announced and he is not guess who

What a crap article but good for leftovers.

Since the Ijaw share the same name as Adimu or Adumu, it will be interesting to see their take

I must add that the Ijaw are also original Oru all over the South, they share "origin" or are part of major ethics groups.

This is why they speak some dialects other Ijaw cannot even understand. Just as different Yoruba dialect.

I stand corrected!

Looking for relevance and attention as usual.

IMF the killer of developing countries.

The devil trying to resurret one of its victims to avoid blame.

The state of of Ndi Igbo today should be a lesson to other Youths. These are people known and well respected inside and outside Africa.

The new generation Youths squandered the goodwill on arrogance, ostentation and money by any means necessary, now a Nigerian thing.

Youths everywhere, never overestimate your prowess.

What an insult. One penny never leaves America. They just create market to their farmers and get something useful from Africa in return, like rights to uranium, bauxite, gold etc.

But wait o! Why are countries frozen part of the year feeding the most arable land in Africa?

Na who go cure our Mumu?

suicide!

I do not think Op is that bitter, he just put it the wrong way. Otherwise parents would be seen as jealous of their children.

We always pray that those coming behind us would be greater than us.

On the other hand, I think theses Youths have been robbed of their future. You cannot use the lucky few as example of Youth success. What you probably mean are the Youths with connections. It does not depend mostly on merits like your days.

Just think about what the lucky Youths spend their money on, you will pity them. Their money comes fast, they spend fast and go broke once they loose their connections.

Even in Western countries where there are still opportunities, minority children still languish after graduation. There is no way you can compare minimum wage in the days of their parents to minimum wage now. Those that make good money still have problem buying houses in Nigeria or overseas.

Yes, you may envy them, it is part of all of us but please do not be jealous. Just pray that they use the money judiciously. Think about the percentage of them that are that lucky compared to your time.

Marriage and children are no longer what you thought when you were growing up.

People with children that worked hard and spent all their money on children have been disappointed. Work to take care of yourself in your old age. As long as you can take care of yourself, children, grandchildren and relatives or caretakers will not be far from you.

The biggest disappointment today are children that are more consumed by their own families than their parents. You cannot blame them for that. You can always adopt as you indicated but do not expect them to be different in your old age than your children.

As for marriage, it is becoming irrelevant. Focus on good relationship. Your good and best friends last for ever regardless of marriage relationship.

There is nothing wrong with you. Your mental health is just readjusting to today's realities.

Don't set yourself up for failure. There is nothing as everlasting as good health and mutual friendship.

President of Iragbiji o to 'ara.

Oponu.

It used to be busing as their vote getter.

Then abortion by those who refuse to feed babies.

Another one is crimes. These are people who shoot and go scot-free and produce more mass murderers than any group.

Immigration is their problem now. Though they came as vicious migrants themselves reducing the populationof their host to little.
