Why are they always running. Even if they bring the patience in a stretcher, you are a professional for goodness sake. Were they not trained to handle this? Do they not use protective wears? Phewm.
You can volunteer, inwhich there won't be any of the equipment needed for COVID 19 situation because our Nigerian government refuse to upgrade our medical sectors so no need for you to say oh I'm not a doctor , neither I my a nurse because you will go through training and will be employed as an assistant, I'm waiting to see how brave you are.

Egun is careful this time around. I can't blame the doctors and nurse for running, but that still doesn't go hand in hand with the ethic of the job and even I would advise they should be sacked..... But on a serious note, there's no point attending to someone with covid 19 when you don't have the necessary equipment.
so they should stay and get infected grin grin, what about you, will you stay with the dude that have coronavirus base on your so called ethics with lack of proper equipment is this bravery or stupidity or foolishness.

You have no proves lemme break it down


Egusi soup is most eating in southern part of nigeria, in d southern part of Nigeria only part of yorubas, edo and igbos claims egusi soup though it a general food eating in southern nigeria the other part of the yorubas dont lay claims to having egusi soup, just the eastern part of yorubas close to edo
The edo and the eastern yoruba eat almost same meal drom black soup to egusi due to cultural ties, the igbos are the aliens here they both dont share any cultural link between the edo or yorubas the nearest neigbours to the east dont even lay claim to egusi if its true they had been eating egusi since inception they might have influenced thier neigbours from niger delta region

Egusi is never an igbo soup so drop it


If it was never original to the edos then they will never use it for religious purpose in edo
Boy stop all this noise, as Benin boy that your claiming you should be thanking the Portuguese for bringing yam and melon to Benin because if they didn't grin grin grin grin grin grin grin that means no pounded yam and melon (egusi soup) for you. Benin and Igbo have a different history and origin of things.

Guy am edo,

I will invite you to were the Benin offer food to his ancestors and you will attest that egusi and pounded yam is a benin food

The benin people have three original soup unique to them fortunately one became generalized egusi and pounded

Egisi soup
Black soup
Cotton soup

Cotton soup have been aborted from the edo food it just remaining the other two

And do you know the people that eat thesame soup as the edo people are the ondo people
I was surprised wgen i went to ondo last year and they told me they have black soup(bitter leaf soup) and egisi too

Like i said the only people who are entitled
To claim egusi is edo and eastern yoruba people

Igbos should forget it, it was never thiers all our cultures in benin have been generalized atleast what we can get is acknowledgment to the benin people, egusi maybe an igbo world for the soup but it does not connote it origin of any kind to the igbo people we call it melon soup and the benin word ogi, its foreigners that call it egusi soup here


Egusi
Based on your logic, all right of ownership should go to the Portuguese and not the Benin since according to you that every thing that has to do with yam and melon in Benin started with the Portuguese introducing it to Benin people also from your logic, without the Portuguese doing so there won't be any egusi and pounded yam for your gods. grin grin grin grin grin this gregyboy wonder shall never end.

Is there no info about crops indigenous to west Africa?
Based on the articles that gregyboy keeps throwing up and down, it means the answer to your question is No, according to gregyboy our lands where only made up of trees, grass and vegetables, this means our ancestors were only eating fruits and vegetables until the coming of whites eg Portuguese, introducing seeds to blacks (west Africa) inwhich they teach blacks eg pre colonia southern Nigeria how to practice farming and also introduce tools needed for farming I guess, to stretch it a little they also introduce blacksmithing, grin grin cheesy grin grin angry angry lipsrsealed lipsrsealed embarassed gregyboy write-up/articles are nothing but an Eurocentric view and also gregyboy is a student of Eurocentric school of thought.

Mere claims

Our forest are made of tall trees and varieties of vegetables
But most food crops ventured into africa by contact with the europeans those tales of africa as an acient civilization holds no water on this article
People migrated into uninhabited lands were they meet food crops. They necessarily dont always go with food crops to plant because before thier arrival the plant may have died along the way they would usual go with abundant food supply

Even European are not left out if you read the articles you would see the benins introduced plaintain to Britain ,probably it didnt grow in thier region thats why you dont see it in Britain today

Do you still wonder why most europeans eat leaves(vegetables) because they were just like africans who really had no food crops but dwell on vegetables all food crips in european countries and even america are imported till today becuse thier vegetation cant grow th

The Portuguese on the other hand bought all this food crops from asia and traded them around the world for money , the Portuguese happen to lived in an environment that suported the growth of this crops ( Mediterranean region)

The crops were mostly brought from asia and south america especially brazil

Little wonder why the asian population grew becausr of abudant of food crops

Thank you

My brother this a very nice message you have in your video, we've lost a lot because of white people's colonialism in which I always laugh at some of my Igbo brothers and sisters who still believes that Christianity was brought to our Igbo land peacefully and Igbo people accept Christianity at of their free will No No the white men brought Christianity in Igbo through war, conquest, subduing and dominating Igbo ways of life including our traditional Religious believes. I believe that this set of Igbos can still known more if they study Igbo/British interaction in the 19th century because this was the time Europeans shifts from treading only to full-time colonialism thing started, among the first set of Igbo/Igboid speaking areas they ( British empire soldiers/colonialists) came in contact with were from rivers areas up to Ndoki and Ngwa, Ngwas people in 19th century were based on farming and treading inwhich various confederations that made up Ngwas land allied with other Igbo people eg there where various confederations in Ngwa know as the pro Opobo they were predominant, followed by pro Aro then comes pro Bonny which use to be the predominant but loses it (the tread/ business alliance) to King Jaja of Opobo, the pro Aro and pro Opobo in Ugwunabor, Obingwa, Osisioma and Își alangwa area of Ngwa land where the one's that fought the British starting around 19th century with the help of Aro confedrational soldiers but there's likely to be other Igbo people that fought the white colonialists around 19th century, it appears the Igbos that fought the British in 19th century understood the situation that awaits them in their present day and their future generations to our present day generation year 2020 which is why you are taking your time preach this gospel in book's, social media and video.

CyynthiaKiss:
Ever since Amokekun issue came up, SW Muslims have directly and indirectly kicked against it without considering the reactions of some of us Christian Yorubas..

SW muslins have once again proved to us that religion plays a very strong role in Yoruba land.. They will always tell you that Yoruba is Yoruba if things are going their way, but quick to bring religion when they think that things are not going the way they wish ..

To average SW Muslim on the street, religion goes ist before tribe instead of the other way round. If not not tell me why SW Muslim formed an alliance with fulanis and objected the formation of amotekun because they perceive it as a Yoruba Christian agenda ?


Average Yoruba Muslim is desperate to integrate with Fulanis in order to stop anything that could give rise to Oduduwa nation because they believe that if Oduduwa is achieved, their so called spiritual leader sultan won't be there again to do what they see as spiritual work during Ramadan as if nobody is capable of doing that in Yoruba land ..( Slavery is a disease)

Some of us Christian Yorubas saw this coming, but we were insulted and called a lot of unprintable names..
SW Muslims are ready and eager to do anything to sabotage Yoruba land in order to please the caliphate..

1.. Apart from MURIC, why would another religious body like Nigeria supreme Sharia council interfere in Amotekun saga even when they have no business with SW political issue ?

2.. Why would Yoruba Muslim.s online and offline kick against Amotekun despite the insecurities that are facing SW
3.. Why are South West Muslim.s hell bent in mixing up with Fulanis ?


The answer is Religion ..

"Yoruba is Yoruba" was coined by SW Muslims to deceive the gullible ones not the progressive Yorubas.. Some of us Christian Yorubas are wiser, its no more business as usual..



Yoruba Christians wake up !!
Our enemies are within ..


Enough of this madness !!


Yoruba Muslinzz are free to express their frustration as usual on this thread..
