Abujalandlord:
congratulation,

recently watched her interview on TVC news, she confirmed her weekly wages of 12 million ....and still single.
Asisat's TVC interview.

Some of the reasons she moved to China

1) The Asians are among the best in the world in women's football.

2) She wanted the experience.

3) The pay is much better.

4) The support is greater (more fans, more media attention).

You should see the way they interact on Twitter. Most times it's as if they are already married, then sometimes (like today) she'll be a little bit distant.

Asisat Oshoala Wins Chinese Super Cup.

Nigerian star striker Asisat Oshoala can't stop winning titles. She won the Chinese Super League this season with Dalian Quanjian and was the highest goal scorer in the league with 12 goals.

And now she has won the Chinese Super Cup. Dalian Quanjian defeated Shanghai 5 - 3 to win the Chinese Super Cup with Asisat scoring two goals and providing two assists.

Asisat has won club trophies on three continents. She won the Nigerian Women's League in 2014, the Nigerian Women's FA Cup (the Federations Cup) in 2013 and 2014 and the English Women's FA Cup in 2015/2016.

She took to Twitter earlier today to celebrate the victory.

I can't believe that I forgot to include this great song earlier (that last "Nepa song" reminded me of it). This should have been one of the first songs that I posted.

There was once a time in Nigeria that power outages didn't last long. Usually they would restore electricity within two hours.

If there was a power outage and it lasted for 6 hours or more then it meant that there was most likely a fault somewhere. We would turn on the radio and they would announce that there was a fault, tell us what the fault was and tell us when electricity would be restored. And they usually restored the power at the exact time that they said they would.


I remember listening to Radio Nigeria until midnight or 12:30am on those days that there were blackouts and I remember the songs they played. This was one of them.


One day somebody asked what they were pushing and I couldn't answer him grin


One Way - Push (1980).

Afam4eva:
Those names are actually Cathjolic names though the history f the ames may have come from elsewhere. That's why most people that bear them are most likely Igbo and Catholic or atleast one of them.
Chommieblaq:
I think I get what naptu2, is trying to say. These names are old English, Latin/Roman names.
Yes, most people that bears such names are Igbo Catholics, then parent give it to their kids. They weren't educated but having Catholic missionaries among them influenced these name and giving their children these names makes them feel "sophisticated and enlightened". Now parent don't give their kids Paulinus, Romanus etc
The reason why people are getting confused is because there are a lot of Igbo Catholics that bear those names (probably because some Catholic saints bore those names). That's not the same as saying that the names are Igbo or Catholic names.

It's like saying that the name Julius is a Nigerian Christian name (because many Nigerian Christians bear the name) despite the fact that Julius Ceaser was neither Christian nor Nigerian.

Professor Claudius Daramola is from Ondo State and he is a Methodist, yet he bears the name Claudius.

Istifanus Kaura is from Zamfara State

Claudius Oyedele is from Oyo State.

And there are many more examples of people from around the world who are neither Igbo nor Catholic, yet they bear those names.

You'll be surprised how popular Latin and Classics was and how much influence it had in society. People who did not study Latin, tried to speak Latin (despite the fact that they did not know what they were saying). It was seen as a sign of high education and everybody wanted to "belong".

In fact, its influence was so strong that we still have people who mix Latin and English today. Take a look at Patrick Obahiagbon.

I bet most people who named their children Linus and Paulinus were Catholics who did not understand the antecedents of these names.
It didn't have anything to do with religion. Like I said, many of them studied Latin and Classics and that's what inspired them. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classics

Ehen, are you serious? huh shocked

Sisisioge, my oga has given us the proper meaning. cheesy
Most of those names that people think are Nigerian names are actually old British, Latin/Roman or Nordic names (names like Zebrudiah, Paulinus, etc).

The names that end in "us" are usually Latin/Roman. Remember that our parents studied Latin and Classics and speaking Latin was seen as a sign that you are well educated.


Claude = Claudius

Roman = Romanus

Adrian = Adrianus

Paul = Paulus or Paulinus
