it depends on the rich person, if he is old money forget it, they dont care about appearance,they have seen it all, it is the new money aka Nouveau riche that care alot about appearance.

You are right to an extent but some old money still make an effort to look neat and wear well-coordinated, high quality clothes. People seem to think only people wearing bright or elaborate clothes care for themselves.

Nouveu riche can be trashy and overindulgent in their appearance but some of them don't care either. Mark Zuckerberg they were yabbing just yesterday doesn't care whatsoever

The guy that disowned his mother, that her juju nearly killed him.

I wonder if it was true That was a crazy story

It used to be part of "female" chores like cooking, cleaning but I think that idea is kind of obsolete now

Either maid or machine because it's too time consuming

BLUEJAYY:
In their defense, the hard work wouldn't let them have time for such trivialities. I guess that excuse is acceptable to all even though the rich Dog actually really has a poor taste of fashion or stuff.

Yes, but what people don't understand is that there are plenty of wealthy people who take pride in their appearance. Like you said if the person doesn't care, it's because he really doesn't care and not because he is wealthy

If the person doesn't have money now they will yab him forever so I don't get it

This is how people shield others from the truth because they think he has money

Omoluabi16:
That's a whole lot on his neck. Let's see how it all unfolds.

Yes oh..too bad. The most important thing is to get justice for the poor souls that died

Omoluabi16:
Yes oh. But not as severe as the murder charge he's currently facing.
Money laundering? I think trafficking or smuggling would be the charge.

Go and check, he has been charged with conspiracy to traffic people, manslaughter, money laundering and conspiracy to assist unlawful immigration

All those can be undone except if they find funds relating to transporting those people in the trailer.

That would mean he was involved in it and he knew they were inside there

Unless the money laundering charge is not related to this particular incident. But if he was trying to clean the money for transporting those people and they prove it, then that's it

BLUEJAYY:
Sure. Nobody would give them stick for that.

Yeah. Actually you will see people doing the opposite

Every time a millionaire is showing wearing a bad fashion or looking somehow they will say that caring about such things is for poor people, which sounds crazy to me

Omoluabi16:
If indeed innocent, then the driver has no worries. He will be off the hook. But he has a whole lot of questions to answer..he will be key to unraveling this whole drama.

The one that's pointing to his guilt is the charge for money laundering.

If he took money to transport the trailer because it had migrants inside he is in very hot soup

EmptyCoconutHead:
they have a good character and a good attitude when compared with the useless Benin and Igbo sisters.

There is nothing useless about either place, you're the only useless person here.

EmptyCoconutHead:
omo na the same question I wan ask o.
besides the only Riverine community in Aks is Oron, Ibeno and Eastern obolo, the rest especially Uyo the capital city is landlocked.

Lol is akwa ibom the only riverine place in the world... I was talking about riverine communities in general

Yahman1:
Like I said, Such perception is baseless, To say that AKS women are the best in bedmatics is not only baseless but sounds Childish, Sex that is done Worldwide. Ur Akwaibom guy says that cos he has not gone outside his locality, there are lots of non-AKS Women that have sexual prowess. If Supposing I visit a brothel and find out that majority of hookers there comes from a particular tribe, Would i be right if I now say all the Women from that tribe are Prostitutes?
This is what Nigerians do, Using their encounter with a particular tribe to Label the rest which is bad

Yeah you have a point there. I am not for labelling but I do acknowledge that particular practices in some places can give rise to both positive and negative stereotypes

Gaggi:
Ignorance is bliss, please stop spreading wrong info as people with SS should be very wary of malaria as they are more susceptible to it and can easily die from it. The only group that has some level of immunity are AS. Please be advised.

Yes you are right, I've modified. Thank you

Yahman1:
I don't have a Problem with ur Assertion, my problem is the wrong perception of Calabar/AKS women as sex Machines. It's so baseless, Personally I have had an encounter wit a nymph before and she wasn't even from AKS or Calabar

Well I still think there must be a reason for the perception even if you don't particularly like it.

You would have to compare the attitude to sex in the state to other states before you will get the answer as to why people think such

It's annoying to encounter stereotypes about your place even if they are not totally baseless. It depends on how the person expresses it because cultural observations can be sensitive

Youve reminded me of an akwa ibom guy I met who said himself that this perception is true...but you will still meet plenty of examples to the contrary, so who knows...

alexmakaay:
dear, even me wey talk am can say exactly why. I have this feeling it has smth to do with the invisible ..but that too I can't say exactly.

Strange...

Lesbian or bisexual? Is she attracted to you at all?

Well you'd better forget it, she seems to have too many issues. She may just be using you to cover up

Omoluabi16:
If they can do a thorough analysis of when that dying victim sent a text to her mom, that could at least give a clue of the times they all died. But I think they were already dead before that truck got to the UK.

And they didn't show their corpse..which is comforting in a way.

Exactly. You are reasoning logically and not jumping to conclusions, that's all anybody can ask for

They will also use forensics to determine how and when those people died

They will find out who dropped the trailer at the Belgian port

Yeah it's against the law to show the corpse. I doubt most people in those countries have even seen one unless it's part of their work

Lol

Sorry about it, please try again ... we aren't all like that

She sounds kind of trashy though, are you sure she's up to your standard? You are probably lucky that she revealed herself early

Yahman1:
Really, so what are Hausa, Yoruba and Igbo women known for?
Talks like this makes it look as if other cultures are of lesser quality, and mind u most cultures share similarities so the Fattening Room in AKS culture could be something else in another culture

Of course, it doesn't. If a child is neater than his classmates won't you praise him? I don't understand your reasoning at all

Calabar itself is a clean respite from the dirt and grime of a lot of Nigerian cities. Is it a problem I don't think so, it's just something to be aspired to

I don't think pointing out a good or interesting quality about somebody should make anyone else feel bad except they are insecure in themselves already

Not taking the other person's feelings into consideration when doing something

There are plenty of role models but the issue is that the wrong people are elevated and for the wrong reasons

Yahman1:
Thank God u said women preparing for Marriage and not all Women besides it is not only done in AKS, other cultures does same, the Mother of an intending bride lectures her on all those things including on how to maintain her home

Lol, you can't equate what people prioritise in each culture, all of us are different

You can't compare that fattening room stuff that is an organised part of the culture to other places where the burden is just on a mother who may do what she likes

When they say calabar/akwa ibom women are known for being neat and homely will you also try to scrub that one??

Acknowledging differences between our cultures is not the same as tribalism

wow

Did she really give birth to all those full-sized specimens

She looks great! She should tell us what she eats

Does eating "Usi" make you people appear younger??

youngds:
I might agree with you based on "original", but right now eh China ti take over

Yeah the OP asked what the honeymoon is for so that's what I posted lol

Yahman1:
That's true, but in my opinion the Fulanis have the most beautiful women, their skin glow alone is a beauty to behold and surprisingly many of them don't make use of creams

Lol yes and you've said that's your opinion. So why do you bristle when other people state theirs? I guess OP finds the beauty of akwa ibom girls superior to that of the Fulanis

Yahman1:
On the issue of Akwaibom girls being the best on bed, except u want to sound Foolish and Tribalistic, that has nothing to do from your State of Origin, u can't sit in your end and write made up stories as if other women from other States are not Good in bed yet they keep marrying and giving birth. [/b]

You have a point but I doubt it's as simple as that. These perceptions arise from observing cultural behaviours and practices

Would you compare a culture where sex isn't discussed much at all to one where women intending to marry are given orientation on how to please a man?

I was told that akwa ibom women are given such training by their elders as part of their tradition. I think it's part of that "fattening room" process (though I'm not sure if they still do the force-feeding).

I don't see the insult in acknowledging cultural differences if they're clearly true. As long as you don't do it in a vulgar manner

Yahman1:
there are beautiful women all over Nigera, have u been to the North before?

Of course there are...I was just wondering why riverine women have this mystical kind of beauty...

alexmakaay:
people born in Riverside areas tends to be beautiful.

Yes! I wonder why...

Iykenuwa:
When you're hooked on and controlled by CNN

I didn't watch CNN to see his vulgar speech so what are you saying

fulli16:
Does it mean Sicklers don't get malaria?
Cause I'm confused o... Malaria no dey fear anybody for this country na.

They get it worse than AA but being a carrier, AS is protective against it

The abnormal protein in their blood cells doesnt allow the malaria parasite to thrive as easily as in normal people

So in areas with high malaria, carriers of the defective allele (AS) are more likely to survive. Thats why the gene is common around here

Its called "selective pressure"

sgtponzihater1:
Its truly inferiority complex to abandon your primary appellage, dentist, and start fighting hard to make people accept that BDS is an extended and metamorphosed MBBS when its fact not. A Dentist has picked that complex problem and made an article for his colleagues to maybe read and learn from.

Thanks for posting part of it too

No need to thank me, the conversations I had in here were needlessly confusing and annoying at that!
