lucky Don: My broda no be lie oh...after doing many sacrifices and fetish things,they still visit the holy land.They are not even afraid of being struck dead or with madness instantly.Anyway,I don't blame them because our God is a merciful God.They are just deceiving themselves

Rexyl: God loves a sinner but it is sin that He hates, and what is sin? It is anything against righteousness of God, and not the righteousness of law except the law embraces godliness. If I am doing God‘s work I must avoid what is against Him. You know God warns us not to have any other gods beside Him. He is the Holy one - I am that I am. Glory be unto Him.

MEILYN: hehehe, ona no go kill person with laff 4 nairaland.

Rexyl: Nobody needs that here. I am committed to all gospel and fulfilling the master‘s mandate... go ye... and teach the word. Matthew 28: 18-20

Alfa Seltzer: What's your vote please?

Divepen: THAT MEANS THERE IS ON SATAN?

okeyxyz: Christianity is not the problem(I speak as a christian), rather it is our low self esteem and racism on the part of the world leaders/elites that has reduced us to this level of self hate. If you are deprived a lot in terms of good education, economic empowerment, cultural identity, ownership and pride, then it's only natural that you end up hating yourself and trying to identify more with the white man than with your own attributes. This inferiority complex is what led to the misuse of christianity, besides the misunderstanding of it. The same misunderstanding and misuse of religion you guys are doing here by attacking the shadow(christianity) instead of the substance.

One very typical example: Put a picture of a black girl besides a picture of a white girl, at least 95 percent of black men will say the white girl is more beautiful. Even on occasions where we might agree that a black girls is beautiful, then all here features must be white and only her color is black. What has this got to do with christianty? Nothing. Rather it is our low self esteem has made us hate anything resembling us. Our music artists now feature white girls in their videos and majority of us praise them for making beautiful, "world class" videos, we tell ourselves the lie that it is because we want a global appeal and that is why we feature white girls. Only i.di.ots who don't think(which happens to be about 80 percent of people) believe this line.

bola4dprec: you never know anything indirect rule continue take for instance Henry Okah and James Ibori matters for instance whether you like it on not Fulani is the strongest lineage in the whole world try to pick up sensory faculty

bola4dprec: Kwara own better now what about this ? Eko was the land area now known as Lagos Island where the king's palace was built. Modern-day Lagos was founded by the Benin in the sixteenth century. All the Kings of lagos were buried in Benin. They passed on taxes to the Oba of Bini until the British came and explained that there was no need to send taxes to Benin anymore especially as the Benin themselves were paying taxes to Britain. It was during his reign that the direct influence of the Benin on Lagos ended. British came all the way from Europe to rule over southern and Northern protectorate no complaint filed, why cited Ilorin as a case study I hate some Igbomina people.

twosquare: Aole cursed the Oyo chiefs against d popular notion that he cursed the Yoruba race....No person have d authority or power or might to curse an entire race...Aole doesnt have such pedigree... .not with the use of potion and magic....And Alaafin Aole is not a good person according to history. His leadership was mega-crap!!!

Ranchhoddas: emm...private jet no follow for things of the world?

9jacrip: At the first bolded: this is what I'm saying. Different oral history from different souces - some detailed, some not so detailed due to overtime embellishments or how well our sources are privy to information. You not ever hearing oduduwa engaged Obatala/ife in conflict shows you need to do more findings because if we begin to go in the line of core oral history then I'm afraid there are/would be so many things you have never heard that you would start fighting and protesting against as you have done so far.

When did Olubuse discuss oral history as being fulfillment of prophecy with you? And who are your sources of oral history? Oduduwa family compound? Ile Olorisa? Obameri compound? Or at least regular Ife indegenes?

If you have not gone to gone to ife to do a one on one interview with either of this compound heads with regards to Oduduwa advent then permit me to completely fault your claims and ask you to speak less on it because you are apparently distorting history.

If saburi, akinjogbin, falola, ade-ajayi classed yoruba history as spirituality then we might as well not have historiography on Yoruba - abi you would have preferred we continue to propagate oral history that is fast withering away in this new age of 'westernization' where most people do not want to be attached to culture, which they think is barbaric?

Divepen: where did devil come from

axion: Maybe Lucozade

It's obvious that you don't know the meaning of the English phrase "in a way of speaking".
