Good one. Baba Seyi is working. I 100% believe una, No need for video or pictures or interviews of the rescued victims.

100%, No venue should be used for illegal activities. Baba Seyi is on his way to fix Nigeria

Oya come and swear him in let me see na. Abeg Nigerians should wait, Baba Seyi is on his way to fix things.

But he's not running for Nigeria. It seems he is representing the UnitedStates. Impressive but unfortunately he is not patriotic

Emeka Ike think sey he fit do that nonsense wey he do for Actors guild of Nigeria? Waka well o.

This no be Segun Arinze matter, this na national issue, he should be guided.

Raalsalghul:
If you’re going to go into an interracial marriage, expect the bold. It’ll be hard for a mixed race child to procreate with an African given our standing in society: they do exist don’t get me wrong but are few compared to those that procreate with whites.

A very good example is Nigerian Footballer William Troost-Ekong, go take a look at his kids: he procreated with a white woman. This is one of the reasons I’m pro black unions.

Osaze Odemwinge is another one and also Leon Balogun

Go home. Not in shame never in shame but in the full, unhurried dignity of one who has finally remembered their own name.

You came with your gifts wrapped in ambition, your hands carrying centuries of ingenuity that built civilizations long before they had a word for civilization. You arrived not as a beggar but as a contributor, not as a shadow but as a source of light. Yet they placed you under fluorescent lamps in cold offices, asked you to spell your name again, to explain your country again, to justify your presence again. And now, emboldened by the shamelessness of a leader whose ignorance wears a suit, they have dispatched uniformed men to remind you that you are unwelcome in the land you helped build. Do not waste your tears on them.

Do not be humiliated by a man who reads from a script he cannot understand, whose contempt for Africa flows not from knowledge but from the hollow arrogance of one who has confused loud words for wisdom. He who denigrates a continent of 54 nations, a billion souls, a thousand tongues, and the oldest human footprints on this earth he does not deserve your rage. He has earned only your pity. But pity is a luxury. Your time is more valuable than that.

Think of what you left behind. Not the poverty they zoomed into in their documentaries to justify their superiority but the real Africa: the laughter that spills out of open windows at midnight, the market at dawn that smells of groundnut oil and fresh possibility, the grandmother whose soup is a philosophy, whose hands are a library. Think of the red earth that knows your blood because it has held the bones of your people for ten thousand years. No American suburb, no matter how manicured its lawns, can offer you what the land of your origin holds in a single fistful of soil.

They will tell you their country is the greatest. Let them have that story. A nation of volcanoes and tornadoes, of mass shootings in schools and prayers that change nothing, of a healthcare system that will bankrupt you for having the audacity to fall ill this is the paradise they are guarding with such vigilance? Let them guard it. You were never meant to be kept anywhere. You were meant to move freely across a world that, at its bones, belongs to everyone.

They have no real food only the borrowed bread of other people's cultures, pressed flat between two halves of a bun and called civilization. No jollof rice smoky from an open fire. No egusi that took all morning to make. No suya wrapped in newspaper at the roadside, eaten standing up, which is how the best things in life are eaten. What they call cuisine, we call convenience. What they call fast food, we call the absence of love.

Remember Wole Soyinka that great lion of Aké, that Nobel laureate whose pen has always been sharper than any sword they could forge who looked at America and its careless talkers, its men who reduce the world to slogans and the slogans to insults, and simply said: no. Not with a fist raised. Not with a press conference. But with the calm, devastating authority of a man who knows his worth and refuses to negotiate it. He packed his conscience and his genius and he came home. And home received him as home always receives its children without condition, without paperwork, without asking him to prove he belonged.

Africa is not waiting for you with pity. Africa is waiting for you with need the urgent, electric need of a continent that is rising, that is building, that is tired of watching its finest minds water other people's gardens while their own soil goes unplanted. Your engineering, your medicine, your art, your business mind, your stubborn refusal to be diminished bring it home. The soil will know what to do with it.

They stole our gold and called it trade. They stole our labour and called it history. They stole our art and placed it in their museums under foreign names. Now they want to steal the one thing we have left our people. Do not let them have even that. Not by force, not by the slow theft of exhaustion and humiliation. Walk out on your own terms. Turn your back not in defeat but in the sovereign indifference of one who has found something better.

You are not leaving because you failed. You are leaving because you are finished with them. There is a difference as wide as the Atlantic that same ocean your ancestors crossed in chains, which you will now cross in a plane, with your passport and your pride and your future folded neatly in your carry-on bag. Let that crossing be a reclamation.

Let your departure be as deliberate as Soyinka's. As quiet as dignity always is. As final as a door closed gently not slammed, for slamming is for those who are angry, and you are not angry. You are simply done. Done with the cold weather that never agreed with your bones. Done with the food that has no memory, no ceremony, no love in its making. Done with proving yourself to people who decided before you arrived what you were worth. Done with a nation that has made enemies in every corner of the world and cannot understand why.

Come home to Accra's golden corridors of ambition. Come home to Lagos, that furious, magnificent beast of a city that never sleeps and never apologizes for its hunger. Come home to Nairobi's skyline lifting itself taller each season. Come home to Dakar, to Kigali, to Addis, to Abuja, to Johannesburg and her complicated, beautiful soul. Come home to the village too do not be ashamed of the village for the village is where the roots go deepest and where the stories are truest.

Their America was never yours. You leased it with your labour and your loneliness and your Sunday phone calls home and your silent endurance of a thousand small degradations. The lease is up. You are not renewing. Collect yourself. Collect your children. Collect your name say it the way your mother says it, the full version, all the syllables, without apology and walk.
Walk the way our elders walked out of their colonizers' offices: slowly, deliberately, with the knowledge that history is long and the last word has not yet been spoken. Walk knowing that the same sun that rises over their skyline rises first over ours earlier, warmer, and with the full approval of a sky that has always loved Africa best.

The continent did not forget you while you were gone. It kept your place at the table. It kept the fire low, but burning.

Leave their America. It was never yours to lose.
Africa calls her children home and she is not asking twice.

Soyinka that has been begging to return to the United States?

helinues:
There are lots of people who have turned things around with this government policies and reforms.

So if you want to be part of the generational naggers, the choice is yours

All those billions borrowed only to rely on a single individual to help the national economy. Tufiakwa for una

Stephen0mozzy:
Hehe... It depends. On a scale of 1 to 10, how superstitious are you?

If above 8, you supposed dey kabash "die by fire" right now. Na arrow from fada abi moda side naim day break meet so. Be like village people nor dey change to bat again, na tortoise now. And mehn your spiritual life must be very low o, for them to send tortoise to you - dem reason am say, spiritually, you nor fit even outrun a tortoise.


But, if you nor believe in iberiberism. Na just ordinary tortoise wey miss road.

Tortoise miss road come enter pesin house? 2 gallons of olive oil go finish that day

But an innocent lady got raped and killed in your region. Not even the handwork of the terrorist but by people who are expected to be normal. You know what that means? There’s chaos everywhere not only in southwest or northern part of the country but in the world generally.. when things happen in southwest which yes everyone knows it’s abnormal. Some certain set of people like you will be quick to react to and politicalized the situation.. meanwhile a lots of terrorism are happening in your region which no one is politicizing it.. recently a video of people slaughtering fellow human being surface online. No one politicize it. Get your fact right Mr. Terrorism started not from this regime of government and hopefully soon in future someone from your region will be President we you will get to understand a lots about this country..

You do realize THIS was the message I originally responded to, right?

Openyamind111:
On behalf of the entire Obidense.. we are waiting for our darling wanna be President AKA (Agbotikuya) to say something to this..

THAT was your response to this situation, right? don't throw stones if you live in glass houses, You can't play the political and ethnic game and then hold your hand when that same card is played back to you. So I repeat, the joke is on you for electing a man who cannot save his own people from being decimated in their own land.

Openyamind111:
Jokes on you.. but when Buhari was the President you guys were angry with Buhari. Started sit at home.. you can remind us of numbers of people who lost their lives because they refused to obey the order. That’s if the order is still not active… funny how those are killing their loved ones because they are mad a particular President are saying they don’t play politics with lives..

Joke is not on me bro, your person is the president and he's people are being slaughtered on their own land. That's one of the worse deals ever made.

Openyamind111:
On behalf of the entire Obidense.. we are waiting for our darling wanna be President AKA (Agbotikuya) to say something to this..

Say what you will but NDIGBO are very PRO-ACTIVE. They don't play politics with lives. No be matter of kidnapping students and teachers and everybody still hold mouth because of one dead mandate. Dem comot pesin head and people hold mouth, dey wait for mandate. That one is never happening, after next year yekini is returning to the swap he came from.

iichidodo:
The same subgroup exists in Kogi, anywhere there's a heterogeneous mixture between the northerners and indigenes as well as a cultural and religious assimilation between both sides, you have a base where external actors from futta djallon or as far way as Mali or Libya can call home and perpetrate such heinous crimes against the locals....Who would blame them? If I was a hardened desert fighter from Mali, affiliated to one of these Jihadist groups in the Sahel region looking for fortune, loot and booty. The sweet, vast green land of the Yorubas populated by a docile people will be prime real estate to establish a niche for my group..

Very informative and well explained

iichidodo:
Nothing will happen if there's an assimilation of terrorism in Yorubaland...The people will just learn to live with it.

There's already a very large Yoruba-Fulani subgroup in Kwara and Oyo, similar to Hausa-Fulani group.

Terrorism? One bag of rice for everyone.

But, but but but Israel...Our arab brothers would never do that to black people especially black people who pray 7 times a day just like our arab brothers. The Ummah is one...something something something Bilal
