To your question yes I lived and worked all over Nigeria not just Yoruba land.

Adeleke is a goner, 2026 governorship election will end Adeleke political career. It’s a known fact. Pelumi that brought Oke to his kneel and almost crumbled Oke during 2015 election. He had to beg olajengbesi to step down for him which he refused. Olajengbesi is loved by the youths and elderly people. Oke's time is up |

kettykin: This is where the story started and ended. The lecturer has no rights whatsoever ever to reach out for her phone or seize it. The university is not a military school or some fraternity. And this is not the 90s where a lecturer can slap a student for little reasons like he refused to greet him.
The case will be long and the girl will graduate while the case is still ongoing. Parents please work on your children to know how to treat elders with respect and sanction over reaching elders respectfully. Dey there make pampers dey wear you She may graduate 3 years after her mates have graduated. Take that to the bank The tone of her own side of the story is just like someone making plea and admitting to being wrong. She's in for a long ride regardless of her mum influence in that school |

Very sound and intelligent right from day one. I’m happy she made me proud, mind you, she comes from my state which is Kogi state. I also graduated with first class also during my uni days. She really worth more than that. GOD bless you my dearest ex-student Mary Omachi on this great feat of yours Thank you Rev. |
Education › Re: Oluremi Tinubu Donates ₦50M To JABU Best Female Graduates by Oloniyan(m): 8:44pm On Dec 06, 2024 |
Zenzu01: You all are obviously missing a vital point here. Instead of spending the whole 50M this year on the best graduating students, the Pro-Chancellor decided to spread the funds across 10 years.
This means that the possibility of spending just 5M this year and pocketing the remaining 45M is very high.
After all, nobody may even remember to ask about the money again next year. You don't know Jabu Nothing of such will happen It will be spread as said |

Education › Re: What's The Meaning Of The Proverb "Ekuro Lalabaku Ewa by Oloniyan(m): 10:24pm On Oct 16, 2024 |
MightySparrow: It is a deep Yoruba Proverb with an occurrence to interpret.
The ewa is wrong, it is awa. However, where called together in a sentence, it sounds like ẹ̀wà (beans.
When you visit cocoa farm or kolanut farm this giant rat (òkété) always digs out some soil, and with it is the soil, (awa). Everywhere you see the soil (awa) you must see the ekuro. Because ekuro is the rats delicacy that it packs inside.
So when two lovebirds are always seen together, this Proverb is used
The equivalent today is 5&6.
Thanks You're actually wrong with the interpretation of the proverb Ewa in this context means beauty and no matter how long a palm kernel exist it will still be beautiful hence the proverb èkùrọ́ lalâbákú ẹwà |
