Chai, see zifiapain. You must be one of those Pastors. How many times have the brides and her friends done sleepovers at your place?

Which one of them sweet pass?

Reminds me of prayer sleepovers of those days at Pastors house of worship praying for miracle to get pregnant.

If ai catch you, what happened to eunuchs that watch the King's wives will happen to you.

Danduruwa!

TicketGreen:
You are an ignorant foool, If the village has no hotel and the groom is unable to find a proper place it's common for certain northern Churches to provide accomodation for the bride and her friends... In most cases the bride's family doesn't stay in the village so the have to give them cover... You don't understand anything you are typing trash

A private home, estate, even a car or phone cannot be invaded without just cause.

But eh, this is Nigeria. Anything goes!

Do you know who I am mentality as someone pointed out.

Was he going in on official duty or a personal visit?

Power, power, power ehn.

These Personal Assistants can not hide themselves

danigbo:
Giving lagos this man as governor is the best thing to come from Tinubu !

Just discovered this old article

You mean those with C of O did not pay for the land in the first place. If the Lagos State Government have to settle them, fine.

But people are just tired of paying for the same land two or three times.

babaolofin:
It seems you or your father has a property in that place. There is no way he will not blame past government. He inherited liabilities created by the military government. That place is a GRA and most of the residents have C of O. Shangisha Landlords Association have no case with Magodo residents but with Lagos State. There is no any amicable settlement other than for Lagos State government to pay the Shangisha Landlord Association . What the Shangisha Landlord Association actually wanted is the normal thing that always happened under this scenario, that is for each Magodo GRA Resident in the affected plots to renegotiate and buy the land again from the Shangisha Landlord Association at the cost to be determined by the Shangisha Landlord Association. That is business. Magodo residents are aware of this, but who bears the cost? Each resident with C of O?

There are so many problems in Yoruba land. There are so many crisis. This is why majority of people and elites must support Emeritus Professor Akintoye.

TicketGreen:
It's a common tradition in the north for the bride and her friends to sleep in a Pastor's house especially if the bride is not domiciled in the area

Common tradition my foot!

Like the tradition of Catholics priests with the Nuns and Alta boys. Like the tradition of Imams and Aisha.

Is it still not obvious that many of these sexual deviants cover themselves with the cloak of religion?

The bride went to pay her last due to pastor in case her husband would not let her out again. Some of these religious scams must be challenged.

How to know Honey Mouse Trap?

When they come out of nowhere and declare a crush on you.

Their first statement, they have their own money and don't need yours.

No wonder there are so many poor that cannot find a crush!

I support Daddy Freeze on this. Religion in Africa is an Opium worse than Mao, Hitler or all "what about" or drugs that attract death penalty in their countries.

Nothing has dominated Africa and make them docile as slaves up 22nd century as religion.

If God is everywhere, why not in your home, village or Africa. Shey Jesus and Mohamed came from your village?

Even the pastors and Imams are drugged on religious opium before they recovered and realize they can become rich on it.

Typical Nigerians: how about Atiku, Saraki, Buhari, Dansuki, Jonathan.....?

The parasites killing the Country, States and local governments with impunity.

Did he deny it? No, he did not. You ever hear of impunity and boldface crooks ruling?

This can happen anywhere but not in Lagos. But when the majority of the people in Lagos are not Lagosians, these are the slaves that support the biggest Mafia since creation of the State.

Those parents that said money does not grow on trees have never seen Money Rain o!

Until men learn how to avoid that trap, they will be humbled no matter who they are.

You cannot and should not cage anyone. If they want to be with you, they will walk in. Let them out if they want to.

I empathize with the position Ooni finds himself.

Have you ever been called Arokian Bogie

Do you know the difference between his own money and blood money

Telekinetic:
In your life never you teach another man how to spend his money. Make your own and spend it as you like!

Intolerance and fanaticism led to Crusades and Jihads.

Religions instill fear of God to sinners against fellow man, not fear of man. This is why they are losing members in their countries and gaining members in Africa.

So that makes Nigerians illiterate?

You mean mischievous, don't you

People like to fool themselves.

Is there any place in the world without the main overrated city or class accent?

You want a good job outside your local area, modify your accent unless you want the lowest classes of jobs.

Just ask those traveling out. In the US, if you open your mouth with USA Southern accent, even with the best education, you will not get that desired jobs in many cases.

Even Presidents like Lyndon Johnson, Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton from the South had polished accent with their Southern draw.

Most people just do not have the patience to listen carefully to an accent they are not familiar with. So you are advised to speak slowly.

Broadcaster accents in all countries is a different game altogether.

In those days as a little boy, I use to watch Richard Akinjide's colleagues laugh at him with his perfect English at Bar but he could not drop the "sh or s" like a New Yorker.

There is another guy who would not speak Yoruba, always expressed himself in English except when with people who know him closely.

Come to find out the reason was that his Ogbomosho Yoruba would catapult a dead body!

tiger28:
I have lived in NY for more than 30 yrs........Your head dey there jor!!!

Thank you sir, one has to come on social media and argue with someone who claimed he was born and raised in New York but does not know the difference between Brooklyn and Bronx accent. Not to mention Southern accent.

He even used the word "primitive" for those who know the difference and got likes!

Let them keep on fooling themselves.

I was shocked that most foreign universities teach both Oyo and Lagos Yoruba.

If you want to show class, learn and speak Lagos Yoruba.

helinues:
The Lagos accent is becoming universal in SW and outside the region

This is my last reply to you on this. Even if you are born there, you are still green.

Accent is a big deal in America. Forget about foreign accent for now.

Southern accent are laughed at or derided the way we laugh at people from hinterland or rural accent here or anywhere.

Americans try to blend or change their accent to the region they move to. In an interview, a New York candidate for School board head said he would never give up his accent for Boston accent.

London accent change from class to regions. Magret Thatcher British PM had a low class accent, married into upper class and changed her accent.

No need to argue this, most informed people here know this. Don't come here telling us you were born there. If you are, stay put in Bronx or Brooklyn (with local distinct accent) without knowing your surroundings.

Even then, you should know better.

Ofodirinwa:
I was born and raised here and live here right now lol. Will you listen?
New Yorkers have a distinct accent but you're not going to make anyone laugh (in the US) by having a different accent than them. My post is stating that Americans don't play politics with accents the way Nigerians do. Read slowly

You are still wrong sir. You have not lived in US long enough.

New Yorker have distinct accent obvious to everybody. Their pronunciation of "sh or s" is closer to Ibadan accent.

Ofodirinwa:
Nobody in New York or London will laugh because someome has an accent lol. I live in the US and that's extremely bizarre. In a place like NY you will spend your entire life laughing because the average New Yorker will hear at least 5 accents from all over the world daily. I promise you this is only a Nigerian mentality born out of abnormal thinking, low self esteem and under-exposure.

Nigerians that come to the US newly think accents are funny, or laugh about how people pronounce things, but after a year they usually realize that mentality is low and adjust. Its usually ppl that have never travelled or people who haven't been outside of nigeria for a consistent year that carry the mentality.

If you tell 10 Americans that an Anambra man says Lefridgator 9 won't even know you're trying to tell them something funny. The remaining 1 will say 'well its not their first language'. It is like laughing because someone used their left hand.

Unless that is not what your saying.

Kai, Lagosians cannot even understand Ijebu accent.

Aphrygian:
What pple termed Eko accent is actually ijebu accent of the Yoruba language

Finally.

Imagine if they had involved them since Eko Bridge.

Instead of Berger or Cappa etc those names could have been Nigerians with student internships from local universities.

If I may agree in part and disagree with you.

Attitude about Eko accent is the same worldwide as in Jamaca, London, New York etc.

I completely agree that whatever accent you utter in those places, you cannot win.

I personally, get jealous maybe even more when Kora speak perfect Oyo dialect.

Ofodirinwa:
Nigerians in general have a primitive mentality about accents. Jamaicans, Spaniards, Americans and British people are using their own accents to make income. In Nigeria if you have accent they laugh, if you don't have they laugh, if you have their own they will fight you, if you have own, fight. Forming up and down to no gain.

not just a yoruba problem. everything in nigeria is an excuse to discriminate and hate

MICHEALADEX:
Shot your mouth...there are good people everywhere even among robbers

Among robbers!

Since they pray before and after operations?

Hard to believe but some people confessed that they could not socialize until they acquired Eko accent.

Boiboi doctors working any and odd hours in rural areas they reject in Nigeria and getting paid less than nurses.

Don't tell anybody o

meobizy:
Only? I expected more. Since their country doesn’t need them they can work where their services will be highly appreciated.

Look at diversionary tactics that have nothing to do with the topic just to prevent people from being informed.

Congratulations

When you don't have money, you do not know where your next meal is coming from.

So when you see awoof, ifa abi freebi, na wackie and die (FELA nor lie).

Bodi know say, next meal is not sure.

Unfortunately, this is why poor people get fat in rich countries. Fat is storage against hunger.

Can you please come up with the study you rely on instead of your word of mouth?

By the time you come up with anything, you and your followers would be dead and gone.

Maybe with 42 virgins in heaven or hell.

Skepticism in Science is good, that is why there are peer reviews. Otherwise people like you would be selling holy water.

Righteousness2:
Nobody carries land to Eternity.
But if you live by the word of GOD the Holy Bible, it does not Matter what you don't have, Heaven is sure.

Typical African Pastor or Imam. Is that what foreigners who have been to heaven or hell tell you?

While they are losing believers in their countries, they are still gaining grounds in Africa because of people like you.

Jesus and Mohamed lived next door. Na your cousins.

Israel and Saudi make money from from pilgrimage but Jews do not believe in Jesus.
