babyosisi: Why are Yorubas very proud of being babymamas and having children out of wedlock This is just so absurd Virtually every Yoruba actress out there is borning pikin and proud of it Shouldn't illegitimate births be a shameful thing in any decent culture? This is why I tell Igbo girls to marry Yoruba men at their own peril Their idea about marriage and family is totally different from ours Theirs is the only culture I know where a married man will impregnant mistresses and his family members including mother and sisters and uncles and sometimes wives will happily wear asho ebi to go and do naming ceremony and owanbe It boggles the mind how this sort of thing can be acceptable Alu There is hardly any yoruba person that doesn't have comma in their family history Either dem papa play away match born pikins or dem mama Born for other people wey no be their papa The day I heard from a Yoruba person that in their culture once a mistress has your baby,she becomes equated to a wife,I said Tufiakwa I hope non yorubas know this their belief before going in
This hate speech isn't helping us in this country, someone told you something and u believed it hook and sinker? This is why you need to leave ur hometown, go to other regions in nigeria and try to learn. Don't be judgmental and don't rely on market women gossips. With all the hatred you've stored in your mind how can you ever be part of solution to tribalism, ethnocentric and Stereotype problems we face in nigeria. Your comment is unintelligent at all. The hate you have for yoruba is just too much. Imagine someone like you being the president of nigeria...smh
If you perform miracle, its from the devil, Adeboye dey use juju, Oyedepo dey use juju, if you are rich, u did rituals, if you prophesy, na juju u dey use,if you pass ur exam, you must have bribed someone, if are successful, you are dubious, why do you people hate success so much? Trying to pull ppl down won't lift you. They prefer known witches and wizard to any man of God, by their seed you shall know them. Jobless poster, silly thread
llawal: Read dey no go read...why then go expel them...this nigeria gan self nah wayo any sai buhari!!!!!
Bros, academic success doesn't guarantee a successful life. These guyz are potential millionaires if managed well. By God's grace I graduated with a good grade in my first and second degree but I will never look down on such ppl coz many of them are talented, gifted and ambitious, all they need is someone to motivate and help them coz many factors might cause their poor performances, ask bill gates, ask steve jobs, ask ben carson, even ur buhari cant make it to university.
[quote author=Kingspin post=29797525]You bore me with PDP rigging elections. We have seen APC won in an election where both parties participated. When did APC became a saint. Frankly speaking, the two parties do rigged election. Yes the APC and PDP. .[/quote/]
Very correct bro. Ppl see apc as a saint, the only party that will never rig an election...so untrue! Both apc and Pdp are culprit in rigging election but ppl will never admit the truth though bitter. Even before feb 14, we all know the outcome of the election, if pdp wins, the election was rigged and if apc wins, its a free and fair election...that's how some fools started the killing or corps. Members then, what is hapening in your backyard isn't what is happening everywhere, once someone's opinnion differs from yours don't taake such as an enemy, let's try and be objective and keep our mind open, God bless Nigeria
Ppl just jump to reply junks without even reading the whole thing and start pdp/apc e-fight. This is a stale news for God's sake and the confused op is out to even confuse ppl more...this type of ppost shouldn't even apear on NL but these days anything goes on NL. Rubbi-sh post

School fees was increase by over 200% this year, there are unsolved issues wt management, even ooni was unable to help us while fighting for the reversal of the school fees. Some students were killed in Jos of recent...a lot is on ground sis, its not abt party. The point is students are angry @ president, vc and his committee of thieves, sug etc. I did IT in part 2, 3 and second semester part 4, they paid me 15k just ds year. Let him try more, I still remained his fan @ least for now but let him silence his critics.

Imagine paying 80naira for 200secs call. I called their customers care to ask why they stopped 250mb and 500mb on data share and why the number of beneficiary was pegged @ 10, they couldn't come up with a reasonable reason...mtn sucks I swear. Nobody to check them, I'm thinking if there could bbe a way to boycot their service for just a day if only by half of their subscribers
This is really anonying, why should mtn be charging a flat rate of 40k/secs? They manipulated data share just to frustrate nigerians. Personally I'm tired of mtn selfish attituted, they need to be checked, without us they can't exist. I think this is best time to kick mtn out of nigeria to make room for another customer friendly network or at least let them feel our pain #kickmtnout

President Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe is said to have risen to power via electoral deception and fearmongering. There was even one election where he did not receive any votes in a certain province so he orchestrated the killing of over 20,000 civilians by fabricating stories of rebellion and treason. During his time in office over 3.1 million Zimbabweans lost their homes, jobs, and livelihood due to his “land reform program” aka bulldozing any village that voices dissent.
24. Vlad III
Although Vlad III has been deeply associated with stories about vampires and Dracula, Vlad is more famous for being one of the most tyrannical leaders in history not only because so many people were killed during his reign but also because of his delight in violence and the cruel treatment of prisoners and rebels. He enjoyed impaling his victims and supposedly even bathed in their blood.
23. Kim Jong-Il
Recently deceased, Kim Jong-Il had nearly a quarter million people arrested during his rule and is directly responsible for the starvation and deaths of million of North Koreans.
22. Idi Amin Dada
Even though Idi Amin Dada ruled Uganda for only eight years from 1971 to 1979, he took full advantage of his time in command to put his wrath on display. Roughly half a million people lost their lives due to extrajudicial killings and genocide during this time.
21. Vladimir Lenin
Probably no one in history has received more assassination attempts than Vladimir Lenin. Of course, given the fact that he instituted the “Red Terror” or the systematic elimination of millions of people, including members of his own political party, this should come as no surprise.
20. Emperor Hirohito
Emperor Hirohito reigned in Japan during World War II and although the accusations made against his leadership are not as significant as some others on this list, the debate still rages as to whether or not he was responsible for the war crimes committed by his military and how much control he really had.
19. Koki Hirota
Like Emperor Hirohit, Koki’s ability and power to affect the atrocities committed by the military was questionable. Unlike Hirota, however, he was executed for war crimes that included being privy to information that could have prevented numerous atrocities.
18. Leonid Ilyich Brezhnev
Being a communist leader for the Soviet Union, it should come as no surprise that Leonid Brezhnev fit right into the senselessly violent shoes of his predecessors, Stalin and Lenin. His leadership was marred with the blood of genocide against the Moldovans, Volga Germans, Cossacks, Poles, and even Armenians.
17. Chiang Kai-shek
As the successor of Sun Yat-sen, Chiang Kai-shek of China was a very formidable leader whose ideals, goals, and dreams were for the sake of giving China a whole new government, away from the common ground of Communism which had lasted for so many years. He was known as the “White Terror”, purging the opposition for better leadership and country stability. All in all roughly 1 million died as a result of his initiatives.
16. Kaiser Wilhelm II
Kaiser Wilhelm II was the last emperor of Germany up until 1918. Know for his inability to control the military and inept command, he probably wasn’t nearly as deadly as he was incapable. Nevertheless, his time as emperor caused the deaths of millions.
15. Ho Chi Minh
Ho Chi Minh became president of North Vietnam by means of violence and fear. Another dictator who seemed to be trigger happy with his land reforms, over 100,000 people were executed as a result. Others who experienced famine and seclusion in war camps numbered to over 1 million.
14. Yakubu Gowon
Yakubu Gowon was the leader of Nigeria at the time when oil was found in the Niger delta, which was also pursued by Ojukwu of eastern Nigeria. Although both sides signed the “Aburi Accord”, it didn’t really do much in the way of creating peace. Gowon ‘s ruthless military tactics in the ensuing war led to the deaths of over 1 million civilians.
13. Mengistu Haile Mariam
Mengistu Haile Mariam of Ethiopia had no qualms about eliminating anyone he considered to be opposition. When he gave his introductory speech, he announced death to the revolution and to the EPRP (Ethiopian People’s Revolutionary Party). He showed his conviction to his the message by throwing three bottles filled with blood from his pedestal. He also initiated the movement to kill thousands of “Kebeles” on the streets, garroting the resistance to death, and even taxing families when requesting for the return of the dead bodies of their loved ones. Overall, he left about 1.5 million deaths in his wake.
12. Kim Il Sung
Sick and delusional as he could be, Kim Il Sung of North Korea led a nation using force, aggression, and deception. He lossed so much respect from his people that he ended up blaming the US for the nation’s suffering, spreading the news that the biggest superpower has spread an epidemic throughout the countryside. To make it more convincing, he killed 1.6 million of his own people.
11. Saddam Hussein
Saddam Hussein was a well-known leader that instigated numerous conflicts in his lifetime. He instituted mass genocide against the Kurds, Shabaks, Assyrians, Mandeans and other ethnic groups who rebelled against his leadership and fought several wars against Iran and Kuwait, with the death toll climbing to about 2 million in total.
10. Ismail Enver Pasha
Of the many dictators that have killed in the quest for power, perhaps Ismail Enver Pasha was one of the most unique. He was the leader of the Young Turk Revolution and became more powerful as he led the Ottoman Empire in World War I and the Balkan Wars. But despite his experience on the battlefield, he was still very bad at leading an army as he lost battle after battle. What’s even worse is that he killed over 1.5 million Armenians and over 1 million people of other races just to compensate for his shameful loss in Sarikamish.
9. Omar al-Bashir
As President of Sudan, Omar al-Bashir was the ruler that negotiated the end of the Sudanese Civil War by giving in to what the Sudan People’s Liberation Army was requesting. Although what he did was considered fair and noble, the agreement directly led to wars in Darfur that claimed the lives of about 400,000 people due to violence and starvation.
8. Pol Pot
Being the communist leader of Cambodia, Pol Pot had envisioned a country that would be equal by any means. So he thought of sending city people to the farms and the farm people to the city. As expected, he did not get the results he wanted so he then resorted to punishing people and depriving them of their right to education, medication, and nutrition. He even executed about 2.5 million who were not following his ideals.
7. Yahya Khan
General Agha Mohammad Yahya Khan was very active during the Second World War and became the third President of Pakistan. As expected, he instituted martial law and ruthlessly led a war against Eastern Pakistan. His policies left millions dead.
6. Nicholas II
Anti-Semitic, idealistic, and very violent, “Bloody Nicholas” as he was sometimes called cost Russia 3 million lives.
5. Hideki Tojo
When he was assigned to be general in the Imperial Japanese Army, Hideki Tojo was not content with his position so he also assumed the position of Prime Minister, Army Minister, Home Minister, Foreign Minister, Education Minister, and Commerce Minister…talk about a lot of responsibility. He also made ties with the Nazis hoping that he would rise to power alongside Hitler. Due to his relentless acts of attacking other Asian countries, he was directly responsible for the deaths of over 5 million individuals.
4. Josef Stalin
Josef Stalin became the leader of Soviet Union after Lenin died in 1924, and launched government programs that would make the country more progressive. His attempt to move to the new economy, however, led to the starvation of nearly 10 million people. With many intellectuals and activists not in favor of his leadership, Stalin also launched the “Great Purge”, killing every person who opposed him and his ideals.
3. Leopold II
As a colonial leader of Belgium, Leopold II was famous for essentially enslaving and killing nearly 15 million Congolese under the guise of his Congo Free State. Other European powers had granted him the territory in order to improve the lives of its inhabitants. Instead he used them for his own personal gain and committed some of the worst atrocities in history.
2. Adolf Hitler
To most people Adolf Hitler does not need much of an introduction as he was famous for being the leader of the Nazis – a German party that was responsible for the deaths of over 17 million people including 6 million Jews and after leading the entire world into war as well as committing numerous war crimes he certainly deserves a spot on this list.
1.Mao Zedong
Famous for being one of the communist leaders of the Republic of China beginning around World War II, Mao Zedong was a ruler who thirsted for power. In his first five years, he killed about 4 to 6 million by indiscriminately sentencing them to death. His policies also starved about 20 million and on top of that he had numerous enemies of the state executed.
So no leader in eroupe is a dictator? You only found them in africa middle east and asia? Smh may God save us from racist and those who are working hard to fool and brainwash africans. Once you are anti america or eroupe, then you are a dictator. But once you stand firm and refuse to be their stooge then you are blacklisted. Mugabe is a hero, original african hero. Why must american want him out at all cost is because of what he did to their ppl claiming to be african tho they are white. After independence they refused to leave becoz there's more to loot in zimbabwe. Don't let eroupeans and americans potray ur leaders in bad light, we all have our flaws yes, but they should let us be! Enough of having their way at all cost! F*king racists!
