PoliticsTerrorist Friend Says MI5 Asked Adebolajo To Work For Them by NSNA(op): 5:14pm On May 25, 2013
Could there be a conspiracy?

In this CNN interview Adebolajo's friend says MI5 asked him to work for them.

http://edition.cnn.com/2013/05/25/world/europe/uk-terror-arrest/index.html?hpt=hp_t1

After the interview given to the BBC, the friend was arrested according to CNN.

Could it be that he knew too much?

PoliticsIf Jonathan Should Be Impeached What Should Happen To Obama? by NSNA(op): 11:28pm On Mar 25, 2013
After reading that article from some busy body American journalist about impeaching Jonathan because in is opinion Nigeria is the most corrupt country.

https://www.nairaland.com/1233137/gej-should-impeached-la-times

Apparently some 17 ambulances were packed in front of the Presidents office.
In the Highest Office of the land, where they most have hundreds of staffs and visitors is that enough?

Now there is great amount of corruption in Nigeria, but that is not what i want to highlight here.

I suggest that Mr Joel Brinkley of LA Times to mind his own business and look closer to home

That is for a country that is in debt of trillions of dollars

CultureRe: Why Did Yoruba Culture Survive In Latin America And Not Igbo Or Others by NSNA(op): 12:18pm On Mar 24, 2013
TheBookWorm: As someone of African American descent, I can help explain this conundrum.

Slavery in the British colonies was far different than slavery in the Portuguese colonies. The planters (plantation owners) made a concerted effort to make sure that they mixed up the tribes on their various plantations. They did not want members of the same group to be on one plantation, because they feared a slave rebellion which was an ever present fear. Read about Nat Turner's rebellion. Igbos were mixed up with Akan, Woloof, Fulani etc. Plus, drumming, speaking their indigenous language, and any other cultural expect was forbidden.

The enslaved Africans found in Brazil did not have to be subject to this, because the Portuguese planters did not care if members of one group could be found on one plantation. That is why many aspects of Yoruba culture can be found in Brazil as well as in the Spanish colonies.

If you look at the former British colonies, you can still see the African presence, but it is nothing compared to what is seen in Brazil. There is a reason for that. I hope that helps.
best answer yet
CultureRe: Why Did Yoruba Culture Survive In Latin America And Not Igbo Or Others by NSNA(op):
This isn't to say that one culture is more superior to the other - Yoruba culture is just deeper in the lives of most people of Yoruba descent - it's like an in-born thing... Heck.
true that, Youruba people don't even shy away from their language, in various countries you will here Yoruba speaking their language in public.

I watched a film 'Kori Kotok on Youtube.

As i was impressed with the poetry and culture i decided to search online hoping to get more info.

Surprisingly all i am getting are stories from various Latin American websites.

What is it about the Yorubas that the culture has survived in almost a dozen Latin American countries simultaneously?

Brazil, Cuba, Uruguay, Argentina, Haiti, Venezuela, Trinidad and Tobago, and the United States

http://www.howard.edu/library/reference/cybercamps/camp2002/YorubaFaith.htm

Some of this countries even practice some of the lost cultures in Yoruba land itself.
