Biafra was named after a coast called " the Bight of Biafra" now called "the Bight of Bonny"... The word itself has no particular meaning, its just the name of a place... Ok, for example, what is the meaning of France?

Its called wèrèpè in Yoruba land. Once it touches your body, prepare for a crazy dance. It makes some one scratch his or her body till it peels.

White wedding shouldn't be valued above our own precious traditional wedding. White wedding is brought along with colonialism, and we embraced it so much discarding our precious one which shouldn't be like that.

Nice pics

Dis is not a matter of being jobless, its hobby and passion...

I need a review: www.oldnaija.

I really got inspired when I saw a guy taking wonderful pics with a mobile phone though he edited some of them, just changing colours. Let's check out our gift with mobile phones... Add pictures taken with mobile phones...
Pic1- A fraction of my area
Pic2- Another faction of my area
Pic3- Sun rising in Ibadan
Pic4- A fence with a pawpaw tree

Those days are really good. I love them all. Oldnaija.

Do not let us forget our old ways in Nigeria, our beloved country. So share anything you know about then. As for me, I recommend this www.oldnaija. for Nigeria's History, Legends, Places, Culture and Tradition, OLd Lifestyle.

Suggesting: If u need explanation on the Nigerian council of Lord Lugard, Aba women riot of 1929, how the mid- western region was created, history of Nigeria, Nigeria's old and new national anthem and so on, visit www.oldnaija. . You'll be happy you did that.

It would be better if we could all share things we all know about Nigeria's past life dealing with both culture and lifestyle. All tribes in Nigeria are connected together with these things, I dont think a tribe can exist without culture and lifestyle. So let's share them. You can get them (history, culture, lifestyle and so on) from www.oldnaija. and drop them here, but never forget to put the link.
