Olosi omo ale

starlingleanets:
We judge every word with the Bible.Sorry bro the Scripture disagree with ur vision.

Really? Kinda support ur argument with Bible passages...I am curious

ROSSIKE:
''Your father, Abraham''? How is ''Abraham'' your father? Colonized goat.

Lol is this not Africa of today? Where a man doesn't know his Great grand father but knows the Great progenitor of Israel and can trace his seeds down to 21 generations

Slaves and bastards that wat African Christians and muslims are

chimerase2:
I believe u
I had a similar one wen I was sick and I gave up the ghost I saw ma self in a place inshort is a long story

U had a near death experience caused by low oxygen in ur brain

Almost everyone has that at critical health situations

UyiIredia:
Fool!

wat do u mean calling him fool?? Is the OP not more foolish than a person who asks for pictures of him in heaven?

If heaven can have beds and mirrors, streets and gold, garments and mansions it's only expected that cameras with 100mega pixel are available to take pictures as evidence

tolusaliu:
I give glory to the Almighty God who gave me the privilege to share this great experience. But surely not all people will believe my testimony,but blessed are you who believe the word. I was right on my bed lying down to take a sleep when i saw myself in the spirit been carried away by chariot of horses with different colours ( white, black )and i was on the chariot moving in the atmosphere, taken away in the sky outside the earth and as i was going i saw outside of the earth, the sun and also the stars, moving in speed with the chariot of horses. And it got to a point when i got to a place where the chariot now stopped which i then stopped and came down a and behold i saw a mighty gate before me which is whiter than snow written on top of it "city of angels"This gate was opened and i saw the street very clean and also whiter than snow and of a sudden i saw angels moving to and fro in speed in white garment as people so busy with what they are doing and immediately i saw an angel stood before me to attend to my presence, and we begin our journey while he began to show me several places in heaven. He showed me father Abraham's house in heaven.......this house is really a mansion which i cannot compare anything with it and he also took me into a mansion that is so beautiful which i saw several things in that house with the living bed too that no one has ever seen before and also a standing mirror with golden design and is glass was so clean and clear like a crystal which made me to move closer and touched the glass and as i touched it with my finger the glass was now soft and moved in as if i touched a cushion and it moved in and also came out back when i removed my finger and i was scared immediately because have never seen anything like that before in my whole life.
Beloved, i must confess there is nowhere you can compare heaven with on this planet..............ohhhhhhhh,what a lovely and beautiful place. And the angel that stood beside me now made me realise that i will have to return back to the earth which i refused that i was not going to return but of a sudden he showed me the earth where i saw a whole lot of crowd calling my name to save them, and as i see this mighty crowd i began to have compassion on them.......... immediately i found myself back on my bed on earth.
Brethren please i beg you in the name of JESUS CHRIST don't let anything make you to miss heaven.Give your life to JESUS today and he will save you,
Say after me, dear JESUS am sorry, pls forgive me for all my sins, i confess to you today that am a sinner pls forgive me.Am born again.Thank you Lord, in JESUS NAME, Amen.

When we all going to be praising and singing for all eternity non-stop when would we have time to enjoy mansions and glass cushion

Liveair:
Not surprising.
Any religion that refuses to Update its beliefs in consonance with verifiable facts faces ultimate extinction with time.

True but christianity in Africa would most likely not change due to the fact that African Christians and muslims are puppets, even if the meccan authorities say Mohamed was a fraud they would not believe because the Quran didn't say so, same for Christians who want to be more Christian than the pope who brought christianity to them

ojimbo:
I love this man, too. I never thought
that the Pope would have more
enlightened and liberal views than
many Republicans in the US. What is
happening to africa?

What is happening to Africa is mental slavery. Africans would still argue that the pope is wrong and call him anti-Christ

As if u are closely to the Christian God than the Christian supreme head himself.

Rubbish and useless. There's no such thing as a typical Nigerian, a man is only typical to his tribe/ethnic nation.
I don't even do up to 5 of those shit on the list

dein77:
You should have stayed away.....You're derailing the thread. However, that's ur opinion.

Wat do u mean my opinion Can you refute anything I posted? No! Because it's nt jst my opinion but fact

FrancisTony:
1) We are talking about biblical figures not fictional characters.

2) She carried our Lord saviour Jesus christ in her womb. Even Elizabeth testified, She ain't worthy to receive the mother of our Lord.- Luke 1:43

3) Who else watched her son die? Her one and only son.

By the way, I didn't say she is the only one.

Biblical characters are fictional characters, anybody who doesn't have proof of ever living besides tales are classified fictional to a very large extent
Not any more real than American TV characters

Btw jst as u hold Mary dear for being mother of Jesus ur god, so do buddhist hold Maya dear for being the Virgin mother of Buddha, Bacchusians(cult of dionysus/Bacchus) hold Semele dear for the same reason. Even Romans before reinventing Christianity worshiped Semele and Isis for being Virgin mothers

FrancisTony:
My favourite character is Mary.

Mother so pure, chaste etc.

No woman can endure her sufferings.

-First and only woman to conceive without having sex.

-Carrying a baby in her womb for nine month.

- Her son was killed on the cross of calvary and handed over to her.

-Crying as her son was being wounded and humiliated.

-Not doubting Angel Gabriel during visitation and being a Virgin till the rest of her life.

-Understanding her son in the Wedding of canann.

Oh well!

Lies and lies.

Mary isn't the first, Isis- mother of Horus, Maya- mother of Gautama Buddha,
Samele-mother of dionysus. and many other mothers of demi-gods like Hercules and Persus

All mothers carry a baby for 9months, some even carry triplets and more

Mary isn't the first or last to lose her son, or watch him suffer.. you should know that

modhream:
Following their twisted logic,my grandmother was Benin royalty too.She was named Obajiaku afterall.
Nonsense n ingredients.

but wait a minute! Does Oba mean anything in Igbo? One would think names like "Obajiaku" was inspired by Bini

Godditex:
A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut
and his beard trimmed. As the barber began to
work, they began to have a good conversation. They talked about so many things and various subjects.

When they eventually touched on the subject of
God, the barber said: "I don't believe that God
exists." "Why do you say that?" asked the customer. "Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize that God doesn't exist.
Tell me, if God exists, would there be so many sick people? Would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there would be neither suffering nor pain. I can't imagine a loving God who would allow all of these things."

The customer thought for a moment, but didn't
respond because he didn't want to start an
argument. The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop. Just after he left the barbershop, he saw a man in the street with long, stringy, dirty hair and an untrimmed beard. He looked dirty and un-kept.

The customer turned back and entered the barber shop again and he said to the barber: "You know what? Barbers do not exist." "How can you say that?" asked the surprised barber. "I am here, and I am a barber. And I just worked on you!" "No!" the customer exclaimed. "Barbers don't exist because if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair and untrimmed beards, like that man outside." "Ah, but barbers DO exist! What happens is, people do not come to me."

"Exactly!"- affirmed the customer. "That's the point! God, too, DOES exist! What happens, is, people don't go to Him and do not look for Him. That's why there's so much pain and
suffering in the world."

Hope You Gain Something From This!

Ok. But like a dirty bearded man can go to any of the millions of barbers in the world.
I guess man can go to any of the millions of Gods in the world

vdGeist:
Aren't igbos generally fair?

Can we really say "generally"

ican2020:
[size=14pt]Oh you were thinking of evil Mohammed that died longtime ago
The father of boom planting[/size]

Wats my business with an Arab pedofile? Pls say something interesting

zeemahn:
I beg to disagree. Those creatures above are actually mythical but the write up is trying to explain what makes them a household name especially in movies.

You didn't read ur own post

Mogidi:
I hope you say the same thing when Buhari goes to Mecca to worship stone.

Stone worship is worse than dead jew worshipping. Buhari is fulani
Not to disrespect fulani people but it's disgusting that most of them worship a black stone in Mecca.
As independent Africans we should find God in our land and stop looking to the middle east or Europe

Radoillo:
"Most parts" is definitely an overstatement.

Meanwhile, history fabricators have been at work. The earliest recorded traditions of Enugu-Ezike people say nothing about the Bini (though the Igala are mentioned, as well as the Nri in some accounts.) This whole Benin thing appeared fairly recently, and is clearly the work of revisionists.

Someone noticed that the eponymous ancestor of the Enugu-Ezike people was called Ezike Oba (sometimes also rendered as Ejige Oba) and leapt to the conclusion that the 'Oba' in the name indicates Bini ancestry. Needless to say there are no grounds at all for reaching that kind of conclusion.

Oh! I see. I always thought Benin empire did a good job on igboland

Anyway I understand this. African history has been so distorted recently...we have to be careful with the kind of things thrown to us as history

joywendy:
really op no one is focusing you to do a white wedding.
just say you don't want to do it, than coming here to rant that it's unafrican. There is always a court marriage which is way much cheaper and faster, if that's your problem.

the trad marriage does it offer a certificate to prove that you are both married? i think not correct me if am wrong. that the most important thing in a wedding the marriage certificate.



There are many things we do in Africa that's not a part of our culture from the beginning. you may as well throw your college degree in to the bin since it's un African. you may as well stop typing in English and start typing in your native dialect because every other thing is unafrican. you may as well stop wearing western attire because its unafrican. you may as well drop your religion and go back to the African religion of sango and all because its unAfrican.

if you claim you want to boost the African culture.


ladies who tend to just be normal and don't apply facial makeup are seen as members of the s.u. when she does she is suffering from cultural slavery.
The generalization in your post irritates me.
i know some ladies who prefer trad wedding to the white one.

everyone knows that the white wedding isn't from Christianity. so what exactly are you blabbing about?

inferiority complex
i laugh in Swahili ain't you part of those Africans?
who discriminate others who are trying to continue the old culture by referring to some of things done has barbaric? you will be the first to point fingers at people who decided to wore bare on their feet and tie wrapper.

#smh

hypocrisy at it's peak.

white wedding is purely useless.

A wedding should be done the african as independent Africans...the English man would not do his wedding the African way
We are not slavesbut if u choose to be a slave, don't come here deceiving people about certificate because you can get marriage certificates from traditional weddings

DisGuy:
wow thats a good list, but you will notice its still not upto the 250 everyone is bashing about. It's not even upto 100

Exactly! ethnic groups in Nigeria are probably just 30. When you talk about tribes you can say 250+

In South West we have only one ethnic group which is Yoruba...well we could consider the egun people members of the Fon/ewe ethnic group

But when talking of tribes we have about 16

mohadana:
ijaw-River state
Esan tribe- Edo state
Bin(Edo)-Edo state
Tiv-Benue State
itsekiri-Delta state
Idoma-Benue state
Nupe?
Isoko-Delta state.
more to come later.

ijaw, tiv and nupe are ethnic groups not tribes

@op so are Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa

Bolt3:
If you are talking about light skinned Nigerians then yes. This is so because apart from our light skinned we don't have any white feature like slim noses an less curly hair. If we were mixed with whites we would look more like Ethiopians. The only people who might be mixed are the fulanis.

True. I have seen mixed and they look more North African, Cushitic

AmunRaOlodumare:
I'm familiar with Obenga's work. If you read the document more attentively, you will see that Obenga does NOT say Yoruba, and the African language groups cited (Hausa, Oromo, Afar, Mande, etc), are direct descendants of Ancient Egyptians.

Consider on the document, p108 (p11 on the pdf), the "Egypto-African Common Stock"

If you look at the hierarchy of the Egypto-African common stock language, which is a very old language, older than 10 000 BC . You will notice that modern African languages like Cushitic, Chadic, Niger-Congo(aka Niger-Kordofanian) as well as the Ancient Egyptian language are descendant of a common parent language called 'Egypto-African common stock' language in this document.

We must understand by this that at one time in history, before 10 000BC, there was a group of people speaking the language we could call proto-Egypto-African who would later separate and migrate toward different directions in Africa. Starting the proto-Egypto-African language differentiation which would lead ultimately to the various African languages spoken today.

If you read Obenga's other work, you will see he situates the origin of this Egypto-African common stock language before 10 000BC, possibly in the region around Sudan/ethiopia (which is where Ancient Egyptians come from, after the Green Saharan desertification along with other regions like Nabta Playa, in search of greener pastures).

So basically, Obenga's doesn't say the African people cited in the document are direct descendant of dynastic Ancient Egyptians. It's more like both Yoruba and Ancient Egyptians, as well as other African language family like Cushitic, Chadic and other Niger-Congo speakers, are descendants of a common language (thus possibly common people) well before the foundation of Ancient Egypt (but later than the OOA migrations of course).

Excellent and brilliant. I don't know why people keep trying to force an Egyptian origin on Yoruba

Wats to say Egyptians didn't come from us?

podosci:
Any foreigner in Nigeria is treated differently, they are treated with prestige, not withsanding the country the person is from,,,,,people from lebanon, India, bangladash are treated like Gods and come to Nigeria to make money since they know they would get preferencial treatment.. when in there countries thy are ordinary citizens, they struggle like every other person there and there is equal competition in there country but The reverse is the case when Nigerians go to other. countries..........You cant realy blame them,,i blame the successive idiots who have ruled us since 1960,,,they reduced our national pride to zero and now even Ghana is talking nonsense about deporting Nigerian.....#ThereWasACounty,,,,Egyptian Airway: recently mistreated a Nigerian Teenager and toee is Nigerian Passport,,what did the Nigerian Govt do? set up a commitee to look into the issue,,,,blloody idiots

I blame religion as the grand factor for this. When we already have Africans who consider white folks as God's people, the people who brought God to them wat else do u expect?

victor1464:
for ur information igbo,yoruba and hausa r not d only tribe n nigeri.they r other minorities..so u igbos should stop lookin 4 where to classify other people under this 3 major groups because all dis triber r already registerd.u beta learn them now b4 u fail ur xams on current affairs

You illiterates don't read and learn

Yoruba, igbo, Hausa are ethnic groups not tribes.

These are way to large group of people to be referred to as tribes
I hate it when people call Yoruba a tribe

EzePromoe:
[color=crimson]All I know is that Nigeria has only 36 tribes, stop mistaken dialects or ethnic groups for tribes. E.g Itsekiri is an ethnic group but when it comes to tribe it's grouped under Yoruba. Kalabari is an ethnic group but when it comes to tribe, it's grouped under Ijaw and so many more.[/color]

U missed the words "tribe" for ethnic group bro.
Ethnicity is a group of tribes, tribes a group of sub-tribes and clans

Itsekiri is a tribe under the Yoruba ethnic group

Nigeria is just too unserious and lacks a cultural structure probably due to the large diversity people don't even know how to organize this list

Are you egba, ijebu or yewa??

That's wat matters not ur state

zeemahn:
I've done so but still don't get you. Kindly expanciate.

He means black science - voodoo, juju etc. should be given a chance.
These men know more than we all can imagine
