If we are still talking about tribe during the elections in this country then that tells how learned we are. I think the Yorubas claims to be educated. Let's stop the politicians from dividing us for their selfish gains.
The last time I checked, all tribes in this great country is cohabiting very well. Only our greedy politicians divides us.
Let those supporting Yoruba candidate know that asiwaju won many senate and house of rep in Igbo land.

Which kind of government is this for goodness sake. What is then the gain for this suffering inflicted on Nigerians? Just to rig election?
The cbn policies under emefiele is the worst Nigeria has ever had tifiakwa

LP has come to stay in Enugu state from top to bottom. If not that pdp is not shameful, should they be campaigning in Enugu state with all the backwards, deceits and harm they brought upon enugu state.

My dear sister, forget all this it is not important.
Women don't inherit property in Igbo land. If the man dies, and have female children, the property goes to the nearest brother to the man. Even though a court of law has on several occasions ruled again that. But na the jazz wey go dey involved for the dragging of the properties be the Koko.
Secondly continuation of family name.
It is assumed in Igbo land that the generation of the man that has only female children ends the day he dies.
Technology is helping now in the determination of the sex of a baby. You can consider that to make your marriage settled. Some men will go have the child outside of marriage without the wife's knowledge but only the family will be aware.. And e go clear the woman for eye if the man dies because all the family will join hands in making sure all the properties goes to the biological son even if it's out of the marriage. If the female children are not married and maybe in school arrangement will be made for their upkeep until marriage and also the wife if she still want to be with the family. That is the tradition. Anybody trying to tell you anything else is just apply modern culture. Some families are considerate though but it's rare.

The reason for this is because the woman may decide to marry another man and the family of the man will not let her take the property to the new man. If they won't accuse the woman of killing the man.
A female child has no inheritance right in Igbo culture. Only male children. My uncle had 4 houses when he died and had a boy and 4 girls. Na the boy inherited both the landed the house . Na only the gift given to the female children when they were marrying is all they got.

Fake news

Ekweremadu should have known that he was dealing with an abakaliki man . Those who know can tell

Did you ask your parents which state you really came from. Even an osun man will claim Lagos as if to say that if Lagos is left for them it won't look like a ghetto. Visit where Yoruba people predominantly live and see for yourself how they would have developed Lagos. Sic...

North no dey joke with their own no matter how corrupt or bad. Don't be surprised how kwakwanso will mobilize his voters to vote for atiku. Na elrufi you wan trust? Apc is dead except God wants Tinubu to win. Politicians in the South should be reasoning like the north but they prefer to align with the north for selfish reasons let's see how the outcome will be.

Enugu North is for Labor party.

Don't underestimate tinubu. He is a master in the game of politics. Don't be surprised that this scarcity of money and cabal thing is APC plan though crying fowl. They know that they won't win if normal politics is played because of their failure. Let's watch and see.

I don't think that this is an issue of over attachment or protective of an only child. What your mum sees seating down, even if you like climb a tree, you won't see it for now. Women are great in observations but love won't allow you to see now.
Ask her to tell you clearly her fears, there maybe other observations that she wouldn't want to tell you. Marriage nobi joke ooo

Try also to find out from another party of close family member why your dad abandoned his family. Clear your eyes make u no go enter bad marriage, it is the worst things that can happen to any man. Marriage is not only about love because love dey die ooo when bills begin to come

I dated this unilag babe for 2 years. I never knew she had two phones. Each time she is coming to me, she comes with only the phone I bought for her and special sim for me and her few close friends that I know.
She made me believe that I can't come to her house cos she stays with her parents though.
She leaves the phone for me and nothing. Naija babes are smart. Na her friend she had issues with burst the bobble to me. She was a hook up babe. That guy don collect number, the rest will be story. Naija babe be say if u wan marry, just close eye to collect one zipped bag. As you open am, anything you see you take. If you are lucky e fit be nice one.

The op is not wrong in his assertion. But to me this is a cultural thing. In the time of our fathers it's men that get married not boys. Because just like the bible said it, a man should leave his father's house to make his own family. Unlike most tribes that get married while still fed and in his father's house. No responsibility. Marriage cost is even contributed by family members and friends. In gbo the man should be capable to bear the total cost both ways of the marriage. So you must be ready and capable to take responsibility before diving into marriage. Maybe the reason for late marriage of the men.

For the women, if not westernization, women don't work. They don't even go to the farm. Their husbands call them oriaku meaning the one that eats my wealth. All responsibility of taking care of the household is of the man. In other tribes apart from Hausa I think it is not the same. Maybe it's part of the reason why Igbo men are industrious. So the women sees any man that cannot comfortably provide for them as a weak man and not worthy.

When a family is poor and have many mouths to feed they tend to push their girls to go marry. This makes them have no option than to take anything that comes. It's pervalent in other tribes. A 19 years old Yoruba guy is already thinking of marriage with no source of income while a 23 years old Igbo guy is thinking of what to do to be stabilized financially. Most of the Igbo guys marrying from other tribes are mostly the ones with no balls just like a Yoruba girl leaving a Yoruba guy for another tribe. She has no choice or better offer.

In all money has no tribe. Every woman wants a man with statues which money provides. Abi you want your sister to marry a poor man? Who love help

He is stupid with the wife because he feels he has family to fall back to. You guys should allow that guy grow. Falling and rising on his own is part of allowing someone grow. Let him carry his cross jare. It will make them evaluate every business decisions seriously before going into it next time. When you overpet a baby you make him/her weak to face the future and realities of life. No give shishi and no guarantee any loan.

Saving doesn't make one rich. Advice him to invest. 200k last 3 months is not same value this month.

It's better the poor benefit than the subsidy money stolen as always by our wicked leaders

SmartPolician:


This has nothing to do with protests.

Let's stop deceiving ourselves in Nigeria.

Petrol subsidy needs to go because we are losing so much to it.

The government just needs to come up with paliatives to cushion its harsh effect.

You are a big fool. The rice you suppose give to your dad, you shared to an ungrateful greedy girl that doesn't care an inch about you. For her you are the maga. How sure are you that the rice was not sent to her real boyfriend. Mumu

You had 8 good years opportunity to do that. All na scam. Apc style of promise and fail

Have you check why you are not making it? An adulterous wife brings the man down financially. Very soon you will turn to a bigger. Sleeping with another man while 5 months pregnant is the height of it all. Run for your life my brother. That marriage will never end well..

Sanwo-olu deserves a second term. He has done very well in Lagos state.

I like this guy. He is doing a lot for Lagos state. He deserve a second term

Buhari is right on this one.

If naa your daughter dey eat for house, will you complain? See her as your daughter and correct her as your would to your daughter. With your message she is not a spoilt child but likes food. We all know that times are hard. Let your wife do the correcting.

The begging is because after one year or soon the rent go expire and who will then pay if the good boy is allowed to go. Mumu

I think she is talking about some of those Caribbean countries passport not Nigerian passport. You must have above 150k dollars to invest for the citizen / passport. Not for everyone. It is for high profile politicians or individuals.

The north is selfish and thinks only about themselves. The northern leaders are the worst thing that has happened to nigeria. Their military leaders then created states and local governments to favor them. This makes them kill any law that wants them stop exploiting the south and equity. Their nepotism no get part two. Go to any federal institutions since buhati came to power and you will understand what I mean. Nations develop when there is equity and justice for all

These guys are shameless

The problem is mostly because Kaduna state headed by elrufai a Fulani gave over 78000 kilometers of land for Fulani settlements. 99% of the Fulani's that is settling there is foreign fulanis. They are the ones terrorizing Kaduna state. States in the south especially hope uzodinma should know that these guys takes land by force and are planted to perpetrate evil and to win elections for their Fulani politicians. They are the terrorists (sorry) bandits. Nigeria never see anything. The level of hunger from next year no go get part two. Farmers are displace and govt does nothing. The nepotism is foolish to me. I weep for my country.

May God grant him eternal rest. He touched lives.

I never see this kind of government. Just like someone that the house is on fire and he doesn't care... Peace can only thrive where there is justice and equity. I was in a Nigerian embassy in the US for the renewal of my passport. See crowd struggling to be attended to. All officer of the Nigerian embassy are Hausa Fulani... Na only them be Nigeria? How will you preach peace in this kind of injustice, cheating and nepotism... Buhari knows what to do to bring back peace but his agenda is very clear to all. Fulanize and control Nigeria. Its too bad....

Not when the ass licking speakers is still holding sway... Any motion to that effect dies without being debated and effc will come for whoever raised the motion as they all have skeletons in the cupboard. They don't care but one day all of then will care. These people should do the right thing for goodness sake. Our democracy is a joke. How can all this be happening in a country and nobody cares. I think anybody that has ever held a political position in this country should be banned from a further elective office. Let us try some people else. We can't just continue like this. Selfish crooks.

How many jobs wey this Twitter headquarters go created self wey person no go here...
But when you have a hoe and does not know how to use it, another go borrow am for his farm and not yours. Na wetin our mumu leaders dey cause. Selfish leaders
