EducationRe: Blind UNN Student, Nnamdi Daniel Evicted From Hostel After His Criticisms by Ogurube: 12:13pm On May 01
Stop talking nonsense.
Humans need to be governed by rules and regulations, otherwise they’d do whatever they please.
Students must not be allowed to make adjustments or abuse the fixtures located on campus, especially electrical and plumbing installations.
Most importantly, in designing and building high-traffic structures, such as schools and markets, thorough diligence must be done in who the contractors would be, to ensure long-term quality and easily-maintainable facilities. More so, there should be a well-stocked and -funded maintenance department ready to clean and fix things before they get out of hand. Let’s stop being primitive with all the education, divination, and travels our people possess and boast about.

Yet, these cowardly idiots don’t have the cajones to fight and scatter Peter Obi without resorting to criminal subterfuge, much less ordinary bandits and terrorists. Sadly, they are failing woefully in carrying out the executive, legislative, and judiciary duties they were desperately rigged in to perform.

CultureRe: Childhood Plays Of The 80s & 90s That Are No More by Ogurube:
Ol’boy, I play well well o! See the games we played in the early to late 80s.

11. KPAKIN: shooting udara (agbalumo) seeds into holes by flicking fingers at the seeds from a distance.
12. KALO KALO: street slot machine played by depositing udara seeds into a perforated kpangolo (Milo can) and spinning it with the aim of winning seeds that fall out.
13. EGUNGUN: played around Christmas, were children moved about in masquerade dance/musical groups to sing funny and vulgar songs while the masquerade dances in demonstration of the songs’ lyrics.
14. BORIS CARTS: making and riding carts built with wood planks, ball bearings (boris), bucket handles, etc.
15. FLUTE: challenging each other to play familiar tunes.
16. WORDING (yabis): making jest of each other with funny and vulgar tropes. Parents were not left out. Eg., Your-mama jokes.
17. EGBON: kids entered verbal contracts in Pidgin English to own whatever they can hit out of each other’s hands, with the exception of things belonging to parents, other adults, or siblings. Dis one go make you cry and become enraged with vengeance.
18. SCORE and KEEP: football played with one goal post, one goal keeper and 4 or more players. Whoever dribbles the others and scores becomes the new goalie…LOL.
19. POPI! YES!: Played when one person wearing a blindfold yells out “POPI” while seeking for and reaching to touch others who respond with “Yes?”, all within in a small space. Care must be taken not to be misled by mischievous ones towards the gutter.

PoliticsRe: People Of Katsina Central Return The Rice Senator Abdulaziz Yar'adua Gave Them by Ogurube: 3:26pm On Mar 13
There’s nothing like “talk more”; it is much less. “Talk more” generally refers to increasing communication or engagement, while "much less" (often used as "let alone" ) emphasizes that if a small task cannot be done, a larger one is impossible.

Then, their leaders should start dressing and reasoning like Igbos, to neutralize the stereotype. They are the ones giving themselves a bad name to be dragged and hanged.

EloquentMedia:
This is a case of giving a dog a bad name to hang it. If this came from an Anambra senator you would have seen it as playing politics but because you grew up with the single story that Ebonyians are not that smart you only look for things consistent with that belief system

That's how the human mind works and that's the genesis of xenophobia and genocide. Beware the root of hate is already sprouting in you
PoliticsRe: ₦14.83 Billion Earmarked To Feed Over 91,000 Prison Inmates In 2026 by Ogurube: 6:27am On Feb 12
Hopefully, that number (91k) doesn’t include ghost prisoners. Trust Nigerian Civil Service leaders at your peril.
Also, economy of scale (purchasing large quantities and inmate labour) should make the cost per meal + snacks to be about #100.


GanagiBitrus:
14,800,000,000÷91,000÷365
=445.58 per day for one inmate.

That's less than ₦150 per meal.

Damn too poor.

How is Lagos on the list? Places like Lagos Island, Eti Osa, Ajeromi Ifelodun (Ajegunle), etc., don’t have potable water, given the brackish ground water and contaminated water ways. The water isn’t safe enough for human consumption, cooking, and hygiene, having all manner of pathogens and contaminants.
FashionRe: American Woman Says Nigerian Fashion Has Colonized US Prom (Video) by Ogurube: 3:35pm On Jan 26
All the Italians, Germans, Dutch, French, Japanese, etc, who moved to the USA lost their languages over time and adopted English to survive in a hostile environment.. You have to be monolithic, prosperous, self-sufficient, needed, ubiquitous, and united to not give up your native languages. The US federal and most state governments would even translate official documents to accommodate your people. The Jews, Armenians, Chinese, Persians, Koreans, Filipinos, Vietnamese, and Spanish have been able to preserve their culture. NIGERIA is not monolithic, prosperous, self-sufficient, needed, and united. We are ubiquitous, but need to stand alone. Igbos, Yorubas, Ijaws, Hausas, Efik, Ibibio, etc, would have to dominate certain areas and be needed enough to be desired for our fashion, food, masquerades, festivals, culture, products, and services. If any one of the tribes can create their version of the trending ceremonial dresses and delicious meals like Egusi, and keep improving upon it, tney’ll have their towns, like China Town, Little Armenia, Filipino Town, etc.


musicwriter:
Of course, those are Africans but called African-Americans.

And there would have been much more cultural exchange between them and Africa if we didn't give up our native languages in exchange for European languages.

The most powerful tool would have been taking African languages there and having them speak it.

If that were the case, you could have easily stumbled on an African-American in the street of New York, California or even black Europeans in Europe speaking fluent Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Gikuyu, Zulu, Swahili, etc. If we were in our right state of mind, this would have been one of the main goal of true African literature.

But Chinua Achebe, Wole Soyinka and co in their naivety said no, and with the patronage of their white masters, they created the mess we live today

Forum GamesRe: Who Dies First If "E" Pushes The Stone? by Ogurube: 7:20pm On Aug 26, 2025
PERSON B!

EXPLANATION.
Person D will live by lowering his/her height and the rolling ball will roll over the small gap.

Person C will live because the rolling ball is not a free-falling (vertical fall) object that gains gravitational momentum enough to force the LEVER downwards. Rather, the ball rolls along the INCLINE PLANE with a frictional force that might slow the ball’s momentum and lowers its weight. Hence, it lands on the LEVER with a tangential and weakened force, with insufficient EFFORT to lift the LOAD of the bigger ball resting on the other side. So, Person C will be saved.

Person B will die because after the rolling ball lands on the lever, the wedge on the lever with serve as an incline that will send the ball into a PROJECTILE motion, causing the ball to fly into the air towards Person B or Person A. But, given that the force on the flying ball will be ATTENUATED by gravity, the ball will land where Person B is located. Also, given that the pit where Person B is standing is wider than the DIAMETER of the flying ball, Person B will be crushed.

Person A will live because the rolling ball won’t get to where he/she is standing. Moreover, Person A has ample space to move and avoid the rolling ball.
Forum GamesRe: Who Dies First If "E" Pushes The Stone? by Ogurube: 7:08pm On Aug 26, 2025
WRONG! The rolling ball is not a free-falling object that gains force due to mass and gravitational acceleration. In this case, as the ball which has less mass rolls along the incline with a frictional force that might slow the ball. Hence, it lands on the LEVER with a tangential and weakened force, insufficient EFFORT to lift the LOAD of the bigger ball resting on the other side. So, Person C will be saved. Meanwhile, after the rolling ball lands on the lever, the wedge on the lever with serve as an incline that with turn the ball to a PROJECTILE, causing the ball to fly into the air towards Person B or Person A. But, given that the force on the flying ball will be ATTENUATED, the ball will land where Person B is located. Given that the pit where Person B is standing is wider than the DIAMETER of the flying ball, Person B will be crushed.


A305:
The answer is C due to momentum from acceleration otherwise known as gravitational force from the rolling ball. And this will only happen if the mass of that rolling ball is greater than the mass of that stationary ball on the other side of the swing.

The energy in the speed of the rolling ball has to go somewhere, hence, centrifugal force will make it bounce back and the stationary ball might change direction to join it to press down the swing to kill that unfortunate fellow.
