Family / Re: 6year Old Boy, Burnt And Stab By HIS Mother For Stealing Soup! by ManOfThePeople(m): 11:11pm On May 26, 2013
Yes I blame the government. It may sound silly but I do. I don't expect most Naija-based folks to understand.

Nigeria is rich enough to help poor parents take care of their kids. Even countries where high wages are paid and poverty level is generally low, they still give social benefits to poorer families.

It is for the good of the child, not the parents. Even 5k child benefit per month would go a long way.

If this boy now suffers constant violence, is there any reason why he would not inflict violence on other people (molester, armed robbber etc) as a grown up?

If this boy gets proper warm food for lunch at school, he might have no need to steal soup. The UN is only just urging Naija to provide school lunch.

Abeg my brother put a more realistic price tag on this ride, less than that 220k.

See people are pricing 40K.

good thread
Politics / Re: PDP Governors Reject Amaechi's Election by ManOfThePeople(m): 5:02am On May 25, 2013
Are they telling us that 35 governors cannot conduct a free, fair and transparent election among themselves just to elect a common unconstitutional, ceremonial representative?

Chai!

Kudos to INEC then.
Politics / Re: Oba Ovonramwem Arrested And Taken-Out Of His Palace (Picture) by ManOfThePeople(m): 11:50pm On May 24, 2013
bokohalal: Three fallacies here.
The Oba was not arrested in His Palace as the British already burnt it down.
Oba Ovonramwen is not the LAST Oba of Benin Kingdom. There is a reigning Oba .
The Yorubas are not from Benin .
.

Good that you made these observations.

Yorubas are not Binis and Binis are not yourbas. I happen to be a hybrid. But in many parts of the world royal families are related. This can be through marriage, conquest, inheritance etc. For example all Eurpoean royal families are related to Queen Elizabeth of England.

Ododuwa did not found the Yoruba race. Yorubas (as they are called today)existed for milllenia before Ododuwa came barely 1000 years ago.
Ododuwa more or less united many people via ruling houses of his descendants.
Not all yorubas are "biological" descendants of Oduduwa. Political, spiritual descendants yes. And there are direct Ododuwa descendants in Western Igboland and many parts of Niger Delta via Benin royal family and ruling houses of Benin Royal descendants. I am one of them.

The people of the SW were not even called Yoruba then and spoke many perhaps related but not really mutually intelligible dialects. You were Awori, Oyo, etc, then.

I think people should ditch all these supremacy nonesense. I cherish all my origins and none is superior to the other.
