Congratulations 🎉

Happy birthday, Èjírẹ́ ará Ìṣokún

By the time Tinubu is done 'fixing' Nigeria, there may not be anything left to fix again.

Unfortunately...

Sharing a country with shallow minds is a disaster

jmoore:
State police is a recipe for disaster.

Nigeria ain't ripe for such.

That's excellent 👌🏾

Fortunately, your lie does not count in the scheme of things as far as the US intelligence gathering is concerned. There's evidence, ample evidence everywhere to establish Christian genocide in Nigeria.

Met a congressman

Any meeting that's not with President Trump or his Vice is as good as a waste of time and resources.

Wake Tinubu up abeg. Nigeria is bleeding. Nigeria is bigger than his 2027 ambition

Congratulations 👏🏾

Great move Sir. Praying you success.

All right.
But call rates and data charges are still high. When will the Telecom companies implement the removal of the added charges biko??

HEAVEN4444:
I have a question, does isese mean WORK IS DONE ? DDDDD

It means 'The ORIGIN of Customs'
Ìsẹ̀ [from the verb 'sẹ̀' which means to birth or originate] = origin

'ṣe [from the noun 'ìṣe' which means practice, culture, customs, tradition, behavior] = customs

Iṣẹṣe is the origin of our culture, customs, tradition, and practices

One of the most essential tools in weaving is the loom—the device on which fabrics are woven. Among Yorùbá weavers, the looms in use are generally either vertical or horizontal, each suited to different styles and traditions of weaving.

1. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐦
The vertical or upright loom is used for weaving broad cloths that can be up to 25 inches wide—or even wider. This type of loom has only one heddle (Yorùbá: ọ𝘮ú 𝘢ṣọ), which helps in separating and lifting threads during weaving. (Don’t worry, I’ll explain more of these terms shortly.)

This loom is primarily operated by women weavers, and it is especially common among the Ọ̀wọ̀ people of Òndó State. In fact, during the course of this documentation, I have not encountered any male weavers who specialize in this kind of loom. However, both nale and female Ebira weavers in Ìbàdàn use this kind of loom.

Traditionally, the cloths produced on this women's upright loom were called 𝐤𝐢𝐣𝐢𝐩𝐚 [kíjìpá]. These cloths were once considered inferior to 𝐨𝐟𝐢 [òfì], the more highly regarded narrow-strip cloths woven mostly by men using the horizontal loom.

Perhaps the security operatives want to do dirty things to the criminals around that area without getting the indigenes involved

Some day, you'd look back at your defending a heartless government and wish you'd done something much better. If this was your hometown, would you still say the same t.rash?

EleventhWeirdo:
Congrats Prof. So, which West African society had the precolonial glass production technology?

The Yorùbá. He made the discovery around Ife

WOW!

He deserves it. He's an excellent archeologist. I've met him in person. He works at the British Museum in London.

May OLÓDÙMARÈ continue to bless him.

If we are fair to Nigeria then why should any part be neglected? We must do the right thing for Nigeria and not for votes

Are you against an FMC in Southern Kaduna or what? Are you saying the neglect of the Southern Kaduna people should continue? I don't seem to get your stand

haybhi1:
Hire much does it cost?
Where do you stay?

I'm based in Saki. But we do take aso oke to Ibadan to sell.

If you want the one that the Oba wore with the totem design (iṣẹ ọna), a bundle is 55k. You may need up to 3 bundles depending on your height and body size.

haybhi1:
I want to have this kinda aso oke abeeeeg

I can make it for you. I make aṣọ òkè

I know the installation process is ongoing at the University of Uyo.

Sonofgod1990:

Come to stay … how ?

Don’t worry.. events will soon overtake this matter ..

The bill is dead already… except those sections is purged ..

Na time will tell

Dey play. No go tell your givernors to begin dey think about how to make money. The parasitic years are over, bro. Don't sleep on it. Before you wake, the train for don go far o.

This one bill o, it's here to stay. You go wail taya. You dey take South money do terrorist parties. If na una make di money, una no go dey take am do terrorist parties.

PARASITIC YEARS ARE OVER. QED

If a government's achievements sound and read like an academic paper, believe me, it's all lies and propaganda.

The powers-that-be at work again. A country this big has no single working refinery for petroleum.

In a serious country, heads would have rolled.

Balablu bulaba doesn't care about the masses. He's just there to protect the interest of the elite.

If you like, let them freak you in 2027 again

Prophet of doom.

Baba wan make Oshim come dash am some thousand Euros.

Make Oshim no fall for am o. Money wey u go use consult am, use am help children of the poor and see how God will make you shine and outshine in any club.

I am a graduate student at a federal university. I applied for a grant at the British Museum and my application was approved. I was asked to attend a mandatory workshop in the UK early September.

I struggled here and there to gather the money to apply for a Nigerian passport and a visitor visa last month. Unfortunately, the Visa application was refused. I received the sad email yesterday, and since then I've been feeling too bad. One reason for the refusal was a doubt on my credibility, with a hint that I might not want to return to Nigeria after the one-week training. Sincerely, I have no such plan.

Now, I'd like to apply a second time, by next week. But the issue is, I'd spent much of my savings on the first application. I do not have enough money to apply again.

I want to appeal to good-hearted Nairaland members to please assist a brother in need with any amount. Thank you.

Also, if anyone knows how I can secure the visa, please help me.

Thank you.

Don't know why some Nigerians are wicked.

A Hausa okada rider mistakenly transfered 8k to my Opay account a few weeks ago. He called to tell me and I sent it back to him.

In fact I had to download Opay again coz I'd not used it for months.

It's a mistake anyone can make. Let's not do something we won't want others to do to us.

do Muslims and Christians stop people from coming during their own holidays? Thing reasonably for once

They do worse. They incite violence with their songs and dance around town. Muslims block roads on Fridays for Jumat prayers. Christians speakers that disturb a whole community on Sundays.

Sundays are holidays and Fridays are mini holidays.

If anyone needs a reasonable thinking here, it's definitely you.

Good!

Muslims and Christians have their own holidays.

Let no one come here to wail because it's an Oníṣẹ̀ṣe Traditionalist holiday.

The horizontal narrow-strip loom was mainly used by male weavers in Oyo. Women weavers used the upright loom for weaving a broader cloth called kíjìpá.

I like the ẹtù design the woman is weaving sha.
