This is really interesting and so on point.
Although the National Anthem is more like a mere song to most people than a sort of prayer....Where 80% of educated Nigerians don't even know the lyrics.
I'm not kidding, just test yourself.

Op, SAY NO TO RACISM!

Reporter? N20 million?
Their background check strategy is too weak! You guys better release nwoke mmadu biko.
I wish him a safe return.

Good people, great nation.
More good news on the way.

"But when the bride removed her veil and smiled for the camera, her new husband leapt to his feet in disgust"-This line is already making my morning awesome

Especially comments like 'I don't know because I schooled in France' and 'pishure or adonbelivit'. They always get me rolling.

It means 'Daddy in the Lord'. Just like 'sister in the Lord' and 'brother in the Lord'.
Age is not a factor and I don't see anything wrong with it.

u gat to watch the boondocks

Right? I'll try and download it.

This is 21st century. Ojukwu's will or 'Deed of Gift' should be respected and upheld by the court; even if it was in favour of his dog. These people should stop denting the image of this great man.

Mine are Spongebob, the last airbender and SHREK. Shrek remains the most interesting cartoon I've ever watched!
No longer enjoy Tom and Jerry like I used to.

#BITG

Busted! I bet you mistakenly included your normal siggy "BITG".
Now, you've confirmed your ever debated identity....All hail the great troll!
You're funny though.

Rhinoceros

Too cheap. 90.

bigfrancis21:
It stems from an anient land tussle between Onicha people and Obosi, which turned out to be unpleasant, and is now used as a warning sort of to prevent something unpleasant that is to happen and its equivalent in English would be 'to forewarn is to forearm'. For eg, 'jee mee ife afu mama gwalu yi mee, jee ozi niine di n'uno, sachapu efele di na sink tupu o na-anata, a di ama uma Onicha gwalu Obosi'.

Interesting, thanks a lot for the explanation. Still wonder why some people (probably ndi Onitsha) don't like hearing it, hence the short form "O gwalu O".
Your example is classical too...okwu a na-agwa ndi isi agbo ncha

missberrypop5:
But what happens now? If anyone sees you digging left over yam in your farm here in imo, they call you a thief. The udara own deh make me cry, when i was little, and we travel to our hometown we deh do competition who go 1st pick Udara for morning, but nowadays people now plug it from the trees and sell them, and you hardly see sweet udara now.
We're killing our culture.

I agree on the udara part. It has totally lost its value.

Wise indeed! It's also practised by almost all the communities in Enugu state and I guess this practice extends across the whole of Igboland.
.
Way back then, the yam-searching spree was best enjoyed barefooted. Lol

bigfrancis21:
O gwalu O, you mean? A di ama ama Onicha gwalu Obosi?

Exactly! Though what I usually hear is "gwara" or "gwalu". Anyway, what's the origin of the saying?

Beync:
There's no such thing as sucide bombing here in England, we give on nigeria.

Is that the new format for "I schooled in France" This isn't some kind of joke.

Deltagiant:
.

Historians, please I'd like to know the origin of the saying "A di ama ama Onitsha gwara Obosi". I heard some people find it offensive, so my aim of asking is strictly for educational purposes. Thanks.

And where would be the venue? I'd like to meet people like Andyb..laze, musi...wa95, space..goat, yung...wizzy, etc.
Great guys.

adedayourt:
I cannot categorically tel u the origin or the star or the gulder

Reason bcus I schooled in France

Lol....there you go again!

keyzid:
Lol. Bruh, you funny gan. I also got attached to that expression since I found it funny

What is 'gan'? Please pardon me because I schooled in.......

Never heard of Zik's son(s). Meeting him won't make any difference as regards his presidential aspiration. I wish him good luck though.

keyzid:
Who is frank edwards? Who is Sharon Ohyakilohme? I don't know this because I schooled in..................

Bro, please what's the origin of this "I schooled in France" expression? I don't know why but I laugh so hard whenever I see the various ways people use it here on NL. Lol

Scamfender:
Like if you did this





The hard way of course

I don't get you.

I got 33 squares.

Waiting for more. These questions are too cheap though. Go harder!

This news isn't found elsewhere on the web except on Nigerian websites, blogs and forums.
Seems legit.

GreenBobo:
He declined shaking hands with the assistant coach when he was substituted! I like him because he pours out his heart when he plays for the S.E's. I believe that he's a dedicated player and all that... He's just out-of-form.... I hope he'd start scoring goals pretty soon!

I wish him luck too and I hope he doesn't grow wings like others.

I agree to an extent.
Especially the practical aspect of courses like Engineering.
No research work whatsoever is carried out in our universities. We still trust in God though.

I noticed that of Emenike but I thought he was reacting to a fellow player's criticism. If it was towards Keshi, then that was disrespectful and totally uncalled for.
