[quote author=Ileke-IdI]This girl just won Miss USA a few months ago.

When did they start dating?

Is a "Miss" award now a criteria for marriage? Na wa o, the rest of us don suffer [/quote]Actually she is from Angola and she won Miss Universe. I am also asking when did they start dating to be engaged already. She barely speak English, I guess speaking English is not a criteria when you are pretty and a Miss Universe lol

Kenyanstar: Nigerians are the most ignorant nation despite their espoused number of graduates churned out by 3rd rate universities. I thought education was meant to help assist humans distinguish between fiction and facts, realism and imagination and truth and lies. The o.p is one guy i doubt his intellectual capacity to reason before writing. Most of this individuals propagating illuminati nonsense are mostly either unschooled, ignorant or plain stupid. This in medical lingua is acute personality disorder. The o.p is preying on peoples successes to abdictate his own failures. If you are a lazy slob and guilty about your failures just shut and work hard.

Education has nothing to do with the bullshit people believe in, so Mr Kenyanstar you have just displayed your own ignorance by putting all Nigerians under one umbrella. Hundreds of people in America believe in this Illuminati crap. What would you say about them?

bambuzz88: didnt get your point, what of the case of jay, wayne, pac, jackon, and so on, they re all blacks......well weda it exist or not ,its not an issue to investigate, but evil do exist in the industry ,thats one thing clear to me with all the lyrics of songs, the nudes, drugs, hatred, moni rain....there is a source for the inspiration and motivation which isnt Godly

Evil exist everywhere, it is in the human heart. Illuminati is a secret society and if it exists then it will remain a SECRET society. Those who rap about it are just talking, and they love the fact that people talk about their association with this supposed secret society. If I were you I would not buy into their crap. Then again people believe all kinds of nonsense in this world.

Illuminati is an American conspiracy. Even if such a secret society exists today, I doubt they will invite black people. So poster, focus your energy on something else.

you sound ridiculous!

May her soul rest in peace!

nitusa: I will respond to you in bullet point and I want you to answer my questions while I await your responses ASAP:
Do you know how much NID send home to take care of their family and friends at home if they don't care?
Are you telling me I should send my kids to Nigeria when I read the Nigeria newspapers online of carnage everyday?
Do you know Nigeria in diaspora invest in Nigeria more than you know?
Do you know many Nigerians in diaspora excel in the field they take up except few who want to act like your govt(419)?
Do you know you are very ignorant?
Do you know majority of NID do not have any problem with Nigerians in Nigeria except your so called dumb leaders that destroyed your morals?
Do you know that NID gives back and ready to give back whenever needs arises?
Do you know for so many years we live out here we don't pay bribes and we are not ready to pay or be involved with bribes?
In your right senses will you take the known for the unknown?
Are you really saying this or you just want to promote your blog?
I am waiting for your answers and I will provide you 200 more questions for your homework.

Thanks

I couldn't have said it better myself.

The idea that Nigerians in Diaspora owes Nigeria something is baffling to me.

Calabar food is great and not overhyped, the poster was just eating from a person who cooked bad period.

mystikal:
Margaritav, Maybe my eyes are doing me in, but that looks very much like Aniekan Ido in one of those Efik Weddings, that would be amazing as I haven't seen that dude in over 10 years

I don't know Aniekan Ido. The wife is Efik, my mum told me about the wedding, she is familiar with her family

[quote author=Ileke-IdI link=topic=478074.msg7096557#msg7096557 date=1289150265]^^^ there's no long hair in the pix.

Anywaz, if black women used to have that kind of long hair, goes to show how westernized products have affected our hair growth [/quote]@ Ileke-IdI to answer your question about their hair being woven in or a wig. Hair is very important in the Efik tribe. That is why you will find a lot of hairy Calabar (Efik) babes. In the days of old the Efik women regarded their hair as a symbol of their femininity; therefore, they cherished their curly locks and were forbidden to cut them.  Efik women inherently had very long hair (before perm & relaxers was introduced). The only time that their hair was allowed to be cut was in the event that punishment was being met out. The severed locks were then braided to the ends of a bride’s hair thereby giving it the long lengthy. Golden combs are used as a final decorative touch. Nowadayes, they just use weave to capture the same look

ibibiogrl:
There are many differences between Efik and Ibibio, difference in dressing Efik wear a gown and Elaborate hair dress etc. Ibibio tie 2 wrappers with a blouse, like most south easterners but without coral beads. Also difference in marriage traditions, Efik coach the bride to be in fattening rooms and they're ceremonies before the actual marriage, ibibio don't. Efik tradions is rule by Ekpe secret society, Ibibio don't have Ekpe, different traditional gods and different greetings. There are many other differences, the only similarity between Efik and Ibibio is the food and language; although most young ibibios growing up in Akwa Ibom will only understand a little Efik in the future, since Efik language isn't used in Akwa Ibom.
   The most similar ethnic group in Akwa Ibom to Efik is Oron. Please refer to this websites  http://emewedsdestiny.com/efik.asp  and   http://www.namywedding.com/dream-weddings/22  for pictures.

I agree with you that Efik and Ibibio are difference. Other Nigerians refuse to acknowledge it. The Brides in your reference websites are both Efik.  Therefore both weddings are Efik traditional weddings, so that was not a good example
