I think the only thing to solve this is just to end it all. I know if I let them have their way I can never be happy. What's the essence of life without happiness. They are thinking my woman used the pregnancy to trap me. They have sworn never to see me with her. Even telling me to ask her to leave my house while I rent it out and then be continue staying with my sister. This I can never allow it. I prefer to die.

And if you die, they will make the life of your woman highly unbearable. They may even accuse her of killing you, and who will defend her? Pls just marry the girl and move out of your home. After a few months or years, your family will come to their senses!

No need to kill yourself bro'. These issues often get resolved over time. Be strong! Tell your pastor to join you in prayers. God can change the situation.

In 1988 or 87 I know Cyril married fellow broadcaster Efunseke Merryman-Johnson. I never heard of her all these years. She left NTA. Is it that she died or they divorced? Pls someone help me here

Exactly! I have been trying to remember the name of Cyril Stober's wife. What happened to that lady? She also used to work for NTA, didn't she?

billyG:
then where d hell are they from?

Then why da heck don't you do your research, before typing crap? Segun Arinze's real name is Segun Padonou Aina. His father is from Badagry in Lagos State, and his mother is Igbo.

Olu Jacobs is from Ogun State. He is a full-blooded Egba man.

Lai and crew wish this bad news cycle to just go away.

Per this report, it appears his major concern is not the wanton destruction and barbarism of the deaths but how it really paints his disaster of a principal in terrible, pathetic light that even his lying, over-worked propaganda can't keep up with.

"When God wants to judge a nation, He gives them wicked rulers." - John Calvin

This news will not go away. It will be repeated, reposted and replayed on every single medium, so that the entire nation and in fact, the whole world, can see what is happening in the entire Middle Belt.

Fulani herdsmen have taken the law into their own hands, yet the security agencies as well as the federal govt, are powerless to reign them in, and put a stop to their wicked antics. We say "No More." Let this evil come to an end. If the killings do not stop permanently, then the media should NOT keep quiet or watch silently! It will never be well with those Fulani terrorist herdsmen! Never!

Ayodele Aderinwale - Justrite stores

Adeshina Adeola - Addide stores

Justrite has been profiled on page 272 of this thread, but I don't think Addide stores has been featured, yet.

vertueptime:
So every crime is now fulani? Militants kidnappers armed robbers have now changed tribe to fulani

Go and check! They are responsible for the arson and killings going on in most Middle belt communities. They are terrorists!

vertueptime:
Come and beat me, some people killed them and they retaliated. Thats the fact. Now that everyone has suffered, let a truce be signed

Are you a kid? Go back and check the history of killings carried out by the Fulani herdsmen! They started it in the middle belt years ago, and they have always been the aggressors. In fact, on two occasions when the Middle belt indigenes retaliated, the army was deployed against them, in support of the Fulani people. Are you so clueless?

their girls are easy going they relate with friends i know about four nigerians who are married to turkish women with kids,and forget that islamic shit,turkish people islamic belief is not like our own people in nigeria,when their girls see blacks they even say hi,they will want to know where you are from,i have nieghbours who are females,when i had issue with my home internet they offered to help me out and even came into my appartment,which girl in nigeria will go into a strangers appartment ?

So are you currently living in Turkey? And are those your Nigerian friends who are married to Turkish women, also staying in Turkey? The country is big, and the other poster who said Turkish girls do not like blacks, may have stayed in a region different from your own.

safarigirl:
Stephanie Linus is not an actress these days, she is an activist who happens to be affiliated to the United Nations through her many humanitarian works.

This particular trip, like many others she has gone for recently, was sponsored by the organization that invited her, so, she is not using her money to globetrot.

She is a smart girl. She has multiple streams of income. Don't forget that she also runs the New York Academy Film Training courses in Nigeria, with the support of her husband and various sponsors.

Threebear:
Celebrities are just used ceremoniously.
They look good, dress good but affect no real social changes, just brought in place for their name value. Tell me how a woman with zero experience and training is going to speak on an issue she knows absolutely nothing about.

Well, there is something called the internet, so she can read up about it and also conduct research into the subject. She can also speak with those working in the field, and survivors of human trafficking, in order to get a first hand experience. That is what celebrities abroad do. Human trafficking, is not rocket science. It is a reality. There are documented real life experiences, of those who have passed through it. Don't forget that she is married to an Edo man, and there are reports of people from that region who have been involved in such things, so she has probably had access to victims of the scourge.

aerodee:
I was stopped sometimes back at Lagos-Ibadan express by over 8 guys, 6 of them were carrying AK47 and other machine guns with two holding cutlass (note my precise description in numbers and identity), they are lean and did not cover their face. I heard their language (Distinctly Fulani), now ask me that question again.

She saw them, heard them, stayed with them a while, only a few of them if any understand pidgin, please be more objective when in public, cos it is very easy to betray your level of reasoning.

In fact, I wonder how people reason. Fulfude is a very distinct language, which is quite different from Hausa or Kanuri or other Northern languages. My younger sister used to braid her hair at a Fulani woman's place many years back. The woman's husband was a security guard for one rich estate, like that. I used to hear their kids speaking the language, and even though I didn't understand what they were saying, the intonation, the way they rolled the words etc, was quite different from anything I had ever heard before.

omoboy110:
about their women and blacks,do you also live in turkey?

And have you lived in Turkey before, for any length of time? If you do not believe him, then kindly list out the reasons why you believe he is wrong. He has spelt out his own reason, what is your own reason for not believing him? Do you know many Turkish girls who are married to Nigerians in Turkey? Do you know where they live? What is the percentage of such interethnic marriages? Those are the things you should be highlighting to prove if he is right or wrong!

I actually thought she had married long ago

She had actually gone to a registry a few years back to marry the father of her daughter. This present ceremony is just the traditional wedding they were unable to do, way back then!

baralatie:
that is a good question!
but I remember that a young Nigerian boy in 1976 as recorded in luth records was saved by the then prof olujini.I would then love Nigeria to have many more prof of med to be available in all local govt of Nigeria

Wow!! You remembered what happened to a young boy in 1976??

stane007:
Few days ago, there was a viral report that 'If you ask me' crooner, Omawumi will be tying the nuptial knot traditionally today with her husband, Tosin Yusuf, who she already has two kids with at her hometown in Delta State.

Here are first photos from the ongoing wedding in Warri, Delta State.

Recall that in a quiet ceremony on January 16, 2015 at Ikoyi Registry, Omawumi got married to Tosinn Yusuf who had been her longtime boyfriend and baby daddy. The marriage came after the singer got engaged to her baby daddy, Tosin Yusuf in late September 8, 2014.

No be Kalabari outfit she wear so? I thought she was Itsekiri....

Both sides have refused to sheath their swords with the pastoralists flexing their federal-backed might on the poor, defenceless people of the "food basket".

The effrontery with which the pastoralists advance their gazetted grazing route in the 21st century Nigeria is perplexing to say the least.

A repeal of the anti-open grazing law will only lend credence to the bullying tactics of the herdsmen and further embolden them in their quest to have a domineering say in our affairs.

Dele Momudu succinctly expressed our frustration thus:

"A government that rode into power on the supersonic jet of goodwill of the people is barely struggling to survive a swim in the gutter of ill-wind."

Professor Wole Soyinka equally irked by the impunity with which the pastoralists operates Said

"These herdsmen, arrogant and unconscionable, have adopted a scorched-earth policy, so that those other producers – the cassava, cocoa, sorghum, rice etc farmers are brutally expelled from farm and dwelling.

This question is now current, and justified: just when is terror? I am not aware that IPOB came anywhere close to this homicidal propensity and will to dominance before it was declared a terrorist organization."

Stop using the massacre of the Middle belt people to compare the proscription of your chest beating IPOBs. If you have nothing logical to say to the people of Benue, go hug a transformer with wet hands....

This thread is about the impunity and killings being carried out by the Fulani herdsmen, not about your verbally abusive, illogical IPOB group!

Wey di price??

No picture of the interior and exterior? No picture of the mileage? Na wa, o!

Milonis:
I don't know how she or anyone know they were FULANI HERDSMEN...Fulani herders don't abduct and release, they don't even abduct, they kill.

They probably spoke Fulfude in her presence, and that was how she was able to detect their tribe.

Emmysteve:
yes I love her so much. In fact we love ourselves. I am 28yrs.

Apologise to her family for impregnating her, and go ahead and marry her in a registry. Talk to your pastor or imam to follow you to the woman's house, and also go to your family, to help broker peace. You can also ask an elderly friend of your own family to intervene, and help you beg your family for disappiinting them. Then convince all parties, that once your finances improve, you will do the traditional wedding.

I know a couple who got married in a registry because they were broke, but two years later God helped them, and they were then able to have a lavish traditional wedding. It is your call.

cerowo:
At least she's beautiful than his other two babymamas...
Igbo Amaka

She is just as senseless as the other two baby mamas. The love shacking Davido will soon fade, after he has had her fill of his body, and then she will be dumped just like the others. Na on top NL, the gist go circulate just like it did with the other two. I give both of them maximum of 11 months.....

Harrynight:
i wish sense not bannana will fall on her to tell obo no baby mamaism... he shud cum pay her bride price

unfortunately she will become a motherfucking golddigger and widespread her legs jus to give obo A BOY which she aint sure of delivering and dump her pride n selfrespect if she even hav.

You are right! Na for here the gist of their break up go land soon....

Emmysteve:
The issue is very complicated. The family I come from is the overprotective type. The lady I am going out with has taken in for me. The pregnancy is getting to two months now by the end of January. When her mother found out she disturbed her to leave the house. I just started working about three months ago and managed to get an accommodation tho my family is not aware. So I told her to pack in. She stays in the house while I visit from time to time until recently when my family found out about the house. My brother found out the whole thing and is very upset with me but he didn't tell any body. He said he is not in support and that no body will support me. My woman is already thinking of aborting it and moving on with her life (and I don't blame her). I don't think I can ever be happy in myself. This for me is not worth living for.

How old are you exactly? Do you love the woman? Is she a good person? Why not go to the registry and marry her? You won't spend more than 20k max for that. Then when things improve, you can do the traditional wedding. If she dies in the process of abortion, you will be blamed. If she develops complications during the abortion, and is unable to get pregnant in the future, you will be blamed. Think am well, o!

Permanent solution is the most important thing. As long as government doesn't take over your family's land, you've got no reason to attack Bello.

People have every reason to attack Bello. He has never meant well for any part of Kogi state, and has not implemented any people-oriented project, that benefits the masses of the state. He collects monthly allocations from govt, but has nothing to show for it. He fails to pay salaries, and has failed to execute any meaningful project or infrastructure, that would improve the fortunes of the state and benefit its citizenry.

Bello would score a capital 'F' for his failure in governance. And now he comes up with this 'grazing reserves' nonsense, which is a potential recipe for conflict? Dem don swear for am, true-true!
