the most corrupt politicians in Africa are in SW

Who is the mumu that wrote this statement? Which kind nonsense is this?

Nature exist as a paired opposite.

God created man in His image - Male,Female.

The male/female pair is a balance for manifestation of life.

The father/mother pair gives manifestation for reproduction.

The good/bad pair is a balance for virtue.

The heaven/earth pair is manifestation for the cosmos.

The blessing/curse pair is a balance for Divine grace.

So the psalm is indeed an earful, but out of that comes Grace.

The word "Allah" itself is a paired opposite. "Al" in arabic connotes affirmation or a 'yes"; "la" connotes a negation or "no". In the combination of the two - yes/no - we have a SUPREMACY of Being.


On a different topic, I didnt know the two of you are sisters. The two of you paired with this Negro is a completion.

bs!!t

Hausa is an Afro-Asiatic language

Thats why a lot is shared between the two - both of Afro-Asia origins.

Igbo origin is not indigenous. . . . you guys are lazy and not bothering to do root search on your origin, preferring to lump yourself with Jewish ancestry instead.

For some fees I can do a root search and tell where Igbo is from.

oh sorry, that was dayo. Dayo, o kare o. . .na who appoint adviser on comedy?

Seanet, youself like palaver. Who appointed special adviser on comedy?

Guys,  we should spend all these spits and speeches in praising and hoping for good outcomes for our people and success and well wishes unto one another.

There was the news recently about Onitsha port getting commissioned soon.  Thats good news and we need to hear more of that.  The success and progress of one is a shared progress and success of all.  Lets look around us and find what is working good and what is doing well to report and discuss on for improvement and progress.  Leave this war thing alone and let it stay in history, we have our lives to live and it should be lived in the now and future.  There is no war now and hopefully not in future but we have bad roads now and we have abandoned projects that need completion, we have single women that are getting old and need husbands and children.  C'mon guys get off this war talks!!

LOIUS or LOUIS?

Anyway, let AWO rest! Leave it alone!!

@Negro,Are you using style-style to call me a dog?

lolololol . Jesus said, " you have said so". . I no talk o heheheheeeee I priced some more trouble

Tayo,

Abeg dont mind Pres., he is instigating. i misspelt, it should have been "dogg" as in snoop-dogg! doggy dawg!! Anyway, whats going with your gf Sarah Palin?

but I certainly hope you have been above and beyond well and chopping a huge piece of the national cake like no mans bizniz

JeSoul, who needs the sour national cake when a delicious and delightful apple is right here in my backyard?

JeSoul, I no lie. I am yet to find a man, Nigerian or not, that will turn down the offer of four women. Particularly Nigerian women and their paraphernalias. lol.

posted by Beaf:

I want to marry four wives.

As for you, first quit MEND so you can liberate your desires. You automatically get four wives upon joining BOKO. If 1000 virgins are more appealing to you, QAEDA is recruiting. lmao!!!

^^^^^^

Jobless Mind, If I replace congressmen with "Senators" will that satisfy your query?

Lets not jump to foolish conclusions because this incident may very well be an act to settle scores between feuding parties. Why was that particular shop targeted when there are countless other shops operated by Igbos in the market? Unfortunately, we may never know the truth because of our incompetent criminal investigators.

ndu_chuks,

Regardless of the undercurrent issue, do you see recitation of the Quran as some sort of civic-based test to legitimize presence in the North?

Jason, you deserve a chieftaincy title from the soil in recognition of your positive attitude and promise to the development and progress of Lagos State. Keep it up, we are watching!

We marry four women because they are beautiful and irresistible, divine and loving, loyal and honest, caring and accomodating, but more important because our nature is dependent and we always need their b.r.e.a.s.t to soothe our troubled souls.

you can add tayo to the list(except that i believe tayo is a real xtian) he he he heeee, i have asked for trouble now

Presido, u love to snatch a napping dog by its tail.

@OP, what's going on JeSoul? Glenn Beck is eyeing congress in 2014. His presence on the evangelical talk circuit is two-fold - (1) to rally grass root movement for tea baggers, and consequently for GOP; (2) to come out of 2012 Presidential as a King-maker and earn credibility for his own run for congress in 2014.

I miss you dear

@OP,

You are just as useless as the congressmen for bringing the issue here to us.

Killayuk or wetin he call himself, let me hear you yarn nonsense one more time about any territory in Yorubaland.  Idiot!  Whats your real name, David Gray?  Wan come claim land from Ifagbemi. Ah, nonsense!

They should go and claim land in Lisbon and London.  That's where their ancestor originate. Bastards!  

Get real DUde. How are you goin have a white name like Tom Briggs and come tell us what we are or aren't? . . .Check yaself nicca!

Na Potugi be dem papa, followed by Oyibo.

tpia, please knock it off! The Yoruba commonwealth or nation does not have "Ijaw" as a sub-tribe. There is intermarriage between Yoruba and Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa. . . . . should we start saying Yorubas are Hausas or are Igbos?

We have Ilajes - riverine peoples - but we do not have Ijaws.

Under Sharia law, both rape and adultery (male or female) can be punished by death. It is zina.

In the Quran there are two different main types of crimes, Hadd crimes and Tazir crimes. Their punishments are spelt out in the Quran. Hadd crimes are specifically forbidden and are considered universal crimes. Tazir crimes are crimes that aren't given specific punishments in the Quran, and in those cases, the punishment for the crime is left to the judge's discretion, who's supposed to take into account local and societal factors.

Examples of hadd crimes: Murder, theft, adultery/rape, robbery, defamation.

Hadd crimes are considered especially serious in Islam, especially because they have fixed punishments. So, there are safeguards for people accused of those crimes. Specifically, a person accused of a Hadd crime can only be convicted if he or she confesses or if two witnesses testify. (There are other restrictions, the person has to be free, not a slave, an adult, in his right mind, commit the act willingly, know that it's a crime, etc)

Sexual crimes, like adultery and rape are taken so seriously, there needs to be a confession or four witnesses. Rape is punishable by death, adultery by a married person is punishable by death. Adultery by an unmarried person is punishable by corporal punishment.

tpia,

the only thing Ijaw is mixed with is Portuegese blood, take Yoruba out of that equation.

The boys should be made to face a Sharia Judge for prosecution. They want Sharia in every other aspect of living, this atrocity should be included within that jurisdiction.

Physics,

Im glad you are knocking sense into these people that find joy in insulting the Bini throne. If its not the Igbos one day, its the Ijaws the next.

Kiri kiri, Olodi  are example of  Ijaw name  settlements

Killayut, u dey smoke something wey potent pass hemp sef.  Whatever it be the spirit don posess you.   My grandmother is Awori, I visited Ilashe, Ilado and the sorrounding coastal water ways from Kiri Kiri back to the border with the Atlantic Ocean and into Republic of Benin in those waterways.  Ijaw is a non-entity in Lagos.  

Stop confusing people who are unlearned about history with this your stupid nonsense.  There is no people in Yorubaland called Ijaw.  This your claim is becoming popular by the day because as is customary, Yorubas are making dangerous concessions by not refuting and redressing online historians like yourself.  Everyone make claim to Yorubaland and our lack of historical persepective has handicapped most of us to know what is accurate and what is false.  

I repeat, we do not have Ijaw in Yorubaland!   Go to Iboland to find Ijaw territory.

Her ambition is beginning to show itself. We shall see. . . .

Killayut,

There is no Ijaw in Yorubaland, period! Yorubas have water people but they are called Ilaje and not Ijaw. Ijaws are migrants and not land owners.

So, Igbos are importing terrorists into Nigeria to help destabilize the North,abi?.

No, the fighters are of Igbo origin, Nigerian govt was not doing anything to rescue and bring them home. Their people in East heard their cries and sent Ekene Dili Chukwu to bring them home.

001: And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD.

002: And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.

003: And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.

004: And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering:

005: But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.

There are many interpretations to this story. I respect and love the literal meanings in scriptures but I am particularly attuned to their mystical messages. Between verses 1 to 5, we also see the reversal of the seniority of birth, which later became a tradition with the children of israel, particularly with the episodes of Esau and Jacob when Jacob took the birthright of Esau from their father Isaac; Manasseh and Ephraim were brought by their father Joseph for blessings and where Jacob (now called Israel) again reversed the birthrights in his grandchildren. When Joseph attempted to correct him he explained the spritiual tradition to Joseph - the consecration of the first born to the Lord! That tradition continues with children of Israel till today.

In another translation, it also gives the independence and inter-dependence of duality in nature - everything is independent but nothing is self-sufficient!

I cannot discuss the topic here but suffice to say that illuminated mystics will tell you that GOD's presence is dual.

There is GOD, and everything else which is not GOD. In other words, - a "HE" is; and a "HE" is not.

We should pay close attention to duality of nature, it is the primary force of balance and order in the cosmos and all forces of nature subsist on it.

@post,

There are two interpretations to this question; one from the letter of the message and the other from the spirit of the message.

1. Literal interpretation.

Tpia is correct in the following where Cain was forecasting the future.

His question was in the future tense.

Back then people lived longer- up to 900 years.

The population was increasing and could be expected to increase more hence his apprehension.

My opinion.

2. Spiritual Interpretation.

The atrocity or crime was committed by the EGO. This is the post-EDEN state of being and of rebellion against GOD. In physical meaning it is the actualization of MAN. The confession and apprehension was the HUMILITY or state of repentance. This is the pre-EDEN state of being and the point in which ADAM was awakened or initiated into the cosmos and he was giving names to things. Here, he realized his own vulnerability and weakness and recognized and acknowledged the SUPREMACY of GOD. In Mercy and Forgiveness, GOD covered him against any danger. This is the stage of SUBMISSION - a reconciliation of matter (MAN) with the spirit (ADAM) and resulting in TRUTH or GOD.


This spiritual interpretation is represented also in Islam. During the five daily prayers, a muslim stands upright - symbolising EGO; then he/she bows - symbolising HUMILITY; then he/she prostrates and touches the forehead (the inner spirit ADAM) to the ground or soil (matter from which MAN was created) - symbolising SUBMISSION TO GOD.
