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.

The History of the Owu Yorubas is intertwined with Cotton production from which they got their name even before Oduduwa ruled Ife

It was because Oduduwas daughter married into the Owu Royal Family and her son with his descendants became the Olowu that they are Considered the oldest Yoruba Clan

Wow! This is interesting.

Thank you very much. I'd like to read more on this. Any books or links to read?

Thanks so much

Cotton is not a Surprise the Owu Yorubas were already Growing cotton in the 10th Century and according to Oral History their Forefather Obatala who Oduduwa fought at Ile Ife was both a Cotton grower and a Cotton Merchant that was why his descendants through Iyunade Oduduwa's daughter were called Owu people

Owu means Cotton in Yoruba
Oduduwa later gave Obatala his daughter as part of a peace agreement at Ile Ife and her Son and his descendants became the Kings of the Owu Yorubas

Hello,

I'm going to send you a DM. I need more information about cotton and textile in Yorùbáland.

Thank you.

i googled uses of wheat. and all i can find is wheat is primarily used for making flour

so the question is - what would they have been cultivating wheat for, and why has that food not survived to this day?

all our staple meals from crops we cultivated in the past are still around.

so if we cultivated wheat, whatever we cultivated it for should still be with us to this day

They might have used it for something entirely different from solid food like bread. Maybe they used it for making drinks, alcohol.

The name of the place already tells you the level of IQ those residents have

Fūck them and their neighborhood

Your comment already shows that your level of education doesn't in any way reduce your high level of IDIOCY.

Adeyemi is in ONDO STATE, not Oyo State.

Who is this ?

After looting the country, they want to win over some clueless people by means of religious blackmail.

I wish the Nigeria judiciary will at least this once disoense justice and send this man and his daughter to 30 years in prison. When they come out in 30 years, they can appoint them prophet and prophetess in their religious sect.

Anyone who understands the piece should please answer my question. Does it apply to Opay and Moniepoint too? Let me know where to move my money.

What in D's name is Cyber security fee?

Brown said, “I went to Nigeria in 2007. I went to Lagos and I fell in love with the country. Two years ago, I went back and once again, I toured the country. Anytime you visit Nigeria, you’re saying to yourself, ‘When can I go back?”

He stated that he was “blown away” by the nation’s movie industry, Nollywood.

“There’s a lot of love for Nigeria in my city,” he said.

This is not to praise or de-praise Tinubu. But 'I went to Lagos and fell in love with the country (Nigeria)' means I went to Lagos and fell in love with Nigeria by reason of what I saw in Lagos.

If you want to criticize the Agbadorians, you can only do that from the angle of he didn't praise Tinubu. But definitely, the Mayor praised Lagos. However, what he saw in Lagos was left unsaid, could be the buzzling life of the city, could be entertainment, could be the culture, could even be the okpekes he saw.

I never knew this before o.

Thanks so much for this educative post.

And that music is better than our constitution?

Better than the constitution, YES, WAY BETTER. But it does not supercede the constitution. That's why anyone who sprays money, whether it's a Bobrisky or an Nkechi, should be arrested and prosecuted.

I just gave you the earlier submission to clear your doubt coz you felt there's no such cultural practice among the Yorùbá.

Bacteria8:
Because it is culture doesn't mean it can't be wrong

We once had a culture where Twins were killed
...until Mary Slessor came onboard.

And who were the 'we' that once had a culture of killing twins? You've been fed lies. Twins were sacred children in Yorùbá cultural practices. Twins' parents even had to make occasional feasts for the twins as the twins continued to grow. The feast is what is known as 'ẹ̀wà ìbejì' (twins bean feast). If they had been killed at birth, as you believed, would there be any need to make a feast for them later on?

Zonefree:
In your Yoruba culture, what is spraying money called?

There's a Yorùbá phrase for money spraying, and it's 'owó níná'. Go listen to classic Yorùbá musicians such as Ayinla Omowura, Barrister, KSA, and Chief Obey, you'd hear lyrics about how so-and-so 'ná mi lówó' (sprayed me money) while singing the praise of the so-and-so.


This money spraying culture must have been borrowed from the Yorùbá practice of touching an Òrìṣà (deity) with money on the forehead during consultation.

SensualMan:
It's perfectly in order. The indigenes gas to raise revenue for the communities.
The CORNmaster increased the price of petrol, LNG, electricity to raise revenue for his pocket so what these people are doing is in order to balance the equation.

The only people feeling the heat are the CORNtree people who stood on the mandate, they are gnashing their teeths in pain, screaming g Ebi n pawa every now and then.
Stupeed CORNtree people.

This was the same thing that sent oil companies away. Let them continue. When nobody uses the port again, they'll come to their senses.

Do you know what a Form A is or you just open mouth waaaa and scatter fingers on keyboard.

mmadu4:
see this stupid government. busy fighting senseless fight while the real fight is still waiting to be fought..

they need to wake up and tackle hardship . insecurity . electricity and so many more challenges in Nigeria,
binance is not our problem now .

this government stupid eh. i wish i can just cast a spell on all of them to drop dead and die

The joke is actually on you, and it's rather unfortunate that you don't see it.

The Govt must have perceived that terrorists used the platform for funds transactions. The top 100 people need to be investigated. QED.

IF YOU'RE NOT HAPPY WITH THAT, RELOCATE TO NIGER REPUBLIC

What's wrong with this?

We used to go help our teachers with farm work and house chores when we were in secondary school. I used to help a lecturer of mine fetch water back in my undergraduate days.

I carried out a study on one traditional occupation of the Yorùbá and I had to enroll as an apprentice under the Ọ̀gá (Master). I needed to help her with some things that were not related to what I went there to learn. It's part of the learning.

Is there any network that offers 20gig for 3k?

His rant already shows what he'd do if he is given an appointment. He sees appointments as an opportunity to national cake. That's the mindset of most politicians anyway.

Let them try it with two or three trains first to see if it works as planned

Hypocrite! What then are you looking for in the SW again. If what you said was true, you'd have relocated to the fast-developing SE.

You make a post that bounces back on you. I'm sure, you'd not want to relocate to the fast-developing SE that's built on facts. You'd prefer to stay in the SW that's built on propaganda. You think everyone is out of intelligent thinking as you are.

She was brought to the limelight by Yorùbá movies. I hope Yorùbá movies will stop giving her roles so she won't have to drain and hurt her nerves any longer.

I hope she knows her acting is more draining and hurting.

Nigerians, always using ambitious greed to spoil things.

I hope everyone can now rest, mbok
