humandroid:Even if, the SW would reflect more numbers, so such a technique didn't happen.. |
alizma:I want insight into it. Thanks |
But does the north really control the country? Who is the north? Are Hausas and Fulani the same people? Aren't Fulani and Kanuri even further apart? Are Nupes not similar to Yoruba anymore? Do Fulanis control the country? Who are the Gbagyi? etc |

LeOstrich:Ugh please stop with these conspiracy theories. They do more harm than good. There is no outsourcing of evil to some top-down illuminati system that can overshadow the fact that we are a planet of confused kids trying hard to figure things out.. |

revontuli:This is what I think: Oyinbo is used for people of Caucasoid groupings. Oyinbo pepper is like the slay queen of the Oyinbos, ok no lol Oyinbo pepper just means a westernized person. Slay queen is someone so fabulous, you're slain. Juju means Yoruba magic. It is also used to refer to foreign magic in a way Yorubas would understand. So.... Caucasoid = Oyinbo. Oyinbo pepper = random term used in hyping people up by implying they are more westernized. Juju = Yoruba magic =/= Voodoo, but a Yoruba person without an awareness of things beyond the Yoruba world would also call Voodoo Juju. My opinion lol |
I don't think they're tough. Not by international standards really.. I can solve them in my head |
Bede2u:The marks of angels. Stop hating lol. |
Congratulations bro. You killed Physics |
BlackAdam55:Nice try Hausa boy |
Adamummya:Yes I agree, every tribe is beautiful in its own way... except igbo women shaa |
Black people taking over this sh*t. Arts and sportsmanship are our contributions to the world. <-- That's the straight up version. The long version --> People are dying to see something exotic. Africa is a continent that is slept on. It's the reason why Avatar made so much money. This is real-life exotic. The Eastern exotic has been frequently displayed. Add this to that black people are good at hyping things up, and eagerly anticipated and hyped the heck out of the movie before its release. I know black people out here that are going to see the movie 3 or 4 times lol. That makes other people want to see what this is all about. Since it's a good movie in itself, they get caught in it and impressed. There is also a sense of urgency in not letting an opportunity given to a black director/producer for such a big franchise go unsupported (among black people in the U.S. ) and so people are out here supporting like they boycotted the city bus during Rosa Parks time. The Black Panther Character made a stunning appearance in the Civil War movie, and so people wanted to see his own world too. Marvel loyal fans also watch to remain loyal. The movie also addressed racial issues that are best addressed in a work of art since it will likely reduce the stress involved. The biggest thing is probably that the trailer was absolutely jaw-dropping and black Americans didn't let their anticipation for it rest. |
Lol, my sister just sent me this link: https://www.instagram.com/p/BgJ1-S-l2Vb/?hl=en&taken-by=badgalriri The original video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZL6vHDMAJ_c Dancers: DreamcatchersDA I'm loving it! |
Firstpage:Another northerner shouldn't mean 12 years of northern rule (ugh.. please use the word "service" instead lol) As ipoblogic correctly stated, the tacit acknowledgement is not in our constitution. If it makes Nigeria more workable then fine, but we can't make constitutions on the go now can we? What I'm saying is.. if we elect a southern leader that is a clear idiot, why can't we replace said leader with another southern representative for the next four years. We have to remember, in Nigeria when people graduate to the presidency, we are not doing them favors, they are SERVING the country. NOONE is entitled to 8 years... this is not a monarchy |
ipoblogic:Don't get me wrong, I don't think Buhari should stay.. but Fulanis have suffered casualties too |
Firstpage:Why not another northerner instead of Buhari ![]() Because more Buhari might just be more these things: ipoblogic: |
Okay, to rectify the supposed quote I posted before, I just found this online and have to say it does seem to put that quote in a bad light... the quote is probably false or just regarded as banter http://www.gamji.com/article9000/NEWS9621.htm I understand the present uprisings in certain muslim countries around the world can cause us to be really scared in the southern half, and perhaps we suffer a little bit from an inferiority complex from being previously paired with a northern half that came with a relatively advanced muslim civilization, at the time..which we have allowed to scare us into concocting doomsday theories... but honestly, northerners usually do seem pretty level headed and less prone to emotional outbursts regarding policy. Yo, if anything starts to go sour in Naij, hit me up |
“This New Nation called Nigeria, should be an estate of our great grandfather, Uthman Dan Fodio. We must ruthlessly prevent a change of power. We use the minorities in the North as willing tools, and the South, as conquered territory and never allow them to rule over us, and never allow them to have control over their future” .... What the h*ll is this?? |
Why do the Fulani have this power lust? Can the Hausa stop associating with them? The Kanuri seem to be more level headed in dealing with them. Pls, for the sake of all things peaceful... The Fulani came all the way from the Guinea region, everything was peaceful until Mr. Fodio wanted to do this Jihad thing... Hausa never attacked Yoruba and vice versa before. This whole thing is a mess.. Not trying to rail on Fulanis, but want them to do some introspection while I do mine.. I'm kinda removed from the country... bear with me as I try to understand things from a distance |
One thing I've usually seen as a positive side of colonization is that it gave us (black Africans) a common language, while I see many negative effects of colonization too. But, we are united under European languages and I strongly believe that language form influences culture, thinking and worldview.. Would it be a good idea, now that we are more exposed to a world scale knowledge of our place in it, as Africans, to keep our undoubtedly beneficial language unity but instead honor our own African languages per region? For example, in the AU recognized region ECOWAS, what African language should we make official for all the region, so that our own African languages represent our unity and why? The most spoken native languages are, in order, Hausa, Yoruba, Fula, Igbo, etc according to wikipedia. For instance, while the francophone and anglophone african countries keep French and English as official respectively, what regional African language can we use to bond the Anglophone and Francophone through a common regional adoption? |
Okay, on a serious note. I've been looking online and realized Yorubas have 93.x% E-V38(e1b1a) frequency and 4.x% R1b frequency. Our neighbors, the Ewe, who I've always considered to be extremely close to the Yorubas have like 98% E-V38(e1b1a) haplogroup. Anyway, I wonder if R1b1 is the Oduduwa contribution in our history. Nobody really knows where he was from but who knows, that little genetic grouping might prove the oral history... As far as the actual topic here, yeah I agree with Nobody and JikanBaura... people be trippin |
Hey just curious, why are you hausas white people? Genetically speaking. I'm Yoruba and that sh*t is weird. R1b1, Afro-asiatic. Who the hell are you people?! *cries* |
