CelebritiesStop Asking Me For Money, It Is Beginning To Piss Me Off – Annie Idibia by Macopol01(op): 6:59pm On Aug 16, 2018
Annie Idibia has told social media beggars to stop asking her for money as it is beginning to piss her off.

The actress, who must have been bugged several times by fans begging for money, said she can’t satisfy everyone who begs her for money.

She begs to be considered because she is also a human being with challenges. Annie Idibia however said she can help support anyone of them who has a work or business.

Foreign AffairsMeet The 14-year-old Boy Running For Governor In United States (photos) by Macopol01(op): 11:03pm On Aug 14, 2018
Most 14-year-old American schoolboys might be fixated on baseball, chasing girls and dodging their homework. Not Ethan Sonneborn. He’s running for governor in Vermont.

The teenager is taking advantage of a quirk in the constitution of the bucolic northeastern state that imposes no age limit on running for governor. Candidates only have to have lived in Vermont for at least four years.

Ethan, happily for his campaign, has lived in the state for 14. He faces a crowded field of adult rivals in Tuesday’s Democratic gubernatorial primary.

His website proclaims him a champion for middle- and working-class families, with “the right ideas” on healthcare reform, economic development and education never mind that he’s still years from graduating high school.

He identifies with the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, which has been increasingly in the ascendant in the United States since the ultimately thwarted run for president by Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders in 2016.

“I think I’m the candidate who best represents the change we need,” he told a televised town hall event earlier this month.

His rivals include Christine Hallquist, running to become America’s first transgender governor, James Ehlers, a Navy veteran and environmentalist, and Brenda Siegel, the executive director of a dance festival.

But despite praise for Sonneborn’s “maturity” and political awareness, his campaign has attracted calls for Vermont lawmakers to close the loophole.

“I think we should probably take a look at that to be perfectly honest,” Republican Governor Phil Scott told reporters when asked if he thought 14-year-olds should be eligible to run.

“I think you should at least be able to get your driver’s license at the time that you become governor.”

Scott, 60, has been at the helm of Vermont since 2016 and is running for re-election, facing Keith Stern, who runs a fruits and vegetable business, in the state’s gubernatorial Republican primary, also on Tuesday.

PoliticsMUST READ!! 5 Reasons Why Other Tribes Always Respect Yorubas – Do You Agree?? by Macopol01(op): 4:03pm On Aug 14, 2018
Read More Below:

Yorubas Lead In Education
If you don’t know that Wole Soyinka is Africa’s first Nobel Prize for Literature winner, then you are a learner.

No other Nigerian has ever won this award. In science and tech, Engr Ayodele Awojobi remains Nigeria’s greatest ever. Google about him to confirm. In Medicine, Nigeria’s best medical student ever is Victor Olalusi, having graduated from a Russian university with a perfect score of 5.0 CGPA, first of its kind in world’s history. He had previously had best WASSCE result in Nigeria in 2004 and highest post utme score in OAU. In Law, you know Gani Fawehinmi, Femi Falana and others. I can go on and on.

Moreover, the best universities in Nigeria are located in the Southwest. UI is incomparable, you know. Ogun State has the highest number of tertiary institutions in Nigeria. The best private universities are owned by Yorubas and situated in the southwest- Covenant, Landmark, Afe Babalola etc. You now know why other tribes rush to the Yoruba land like it’s paradise?



Yorubas Lead In Entertainment
Music is now big business in Nigeria. Historically, the greatest African musician who ever lived was Fela Anikulapo Kuti.

The world’s greatest award in music is the Grammy Award. The only 3 Nigerian musicians ever nominated for the Grammy are Femi Kuti and Sunny Ade & Wizkid. None from other tribes.

Even the MOBO, top black music award, has been dominated by acts like Tuface, 9ice, D’banj, Wizkid and Davido, from Nigeria. Only Tubaba is the non-Yoruba here. Psquare NEVER win am o, before una start to dey argue.

Every artiste now tries to sing in Yoruba, Even Rugged sef go steal Yoruba baba song diss 9ice. Lol. Yorubas rule the Nigerian music world.

In movies, Omotola remains the most celebrated having been listed in TIMES magazine of 2013 as one of the most influential human beings on earth, a feat her close competitor, Genevieve is yet to achieve. Respect Yorubas!



Yorubas Lead In Leadership/Politics
Love him or hate him, Obasanjo was for many years the most powerful person in Nigerian politics. He remains the first person to have ruled Nigeria as both military and civilian presido.

Since the 2011 general elections, the most influential person has been Bola Tinubu(love him or hate him). Historically, the most celebrated Nigerian politician ever is M.K.O Abiola. Do you know that Odumegwu Ojukwu greatly respected Obafemi Awolowo? During the civil war, he said this about Awolowo, ”one day, the Yoruba nation will tear apart from Nigeria without firing a single shot. And it will be through Awo’s legacy.” If Ojukwu could respect Yorubas, who are you not to? Lol.



Yorubas Lead In Religion
I for no bring religion come here but as e be sey na major role religion dey play for Naija, I say make I bring am. The largest church in Nigeria is the RCCG, founded and led by a Yoruba. MFM, Deeper Life, Gospel Faith etc are all founded and led by Yorubas.

Funny thing is, those wey dey beef Yorubas full these churches o, lol. Have you been to SCOAN? Love TB Joshua or hate him, people troop into that church from all over the world, even professors and people who are more educated and exposed than you are. Yes, you! Top non-Yoruba church founders like Pastors Lazarus Mouka and Oyakhilome have their churches’ headquarters situated in the Yorubaland.

Others are still scrambling for spaces in the Yorubaland, lol. Yorubas welcome and accommodate all of you o. Just respect them!



The Southwest Is The Business Centre Of Nigeria
Oya tell me why you carry your business come do for Lagos and you no do am for your village. Business no go move abi? Can you tell me the region in Nigeria where Banana Island, Lekki, Ajah, Victoria Island are situated. I know you wish to live for these areas, shey? Dangote is the richest man in Nigeria, right? Ask him which region most of his investments are situated and why he chose that region.

Ask Psquare if they fit sell their house wey dey Banana Island, go buy another one for Aba. Lol, so you see?

I never said Yoruba is the best tribe o. Abeg no misquote me. These are just very few of the reasons you have to respect the Yorubas. I envy them a lot. They deserve every hype they get.
