Iyoocartel:
Iyooooooo cartel

Before fulani cartels wasted this innocent man and his wife yet his people won't stop asslicking the fulanis.
What a shame!

You are the people ass licking the Fulanis.

Even as we are discussing now, about 80% of the people shouting Atiku 2023, I am Atikulated' and Atiku Kawai online are people from your Geopolitical zone.

ORBLIGHTS:
WON SE BOLA TITAN.... OLA KU SE'YIN. DINO DINO. 1M no too much na

But if na APC member buy this car,you wouldn't have said this.

Ghostmode2two:
Were Funsho Williams to be alive then there would have been hope for PDP

So the hope of the PDP depends on a politician that died in 2006?

Seerade029:
Lol, testing popularity.
Tho he has every right to contest.
But this nation won't move forward if these old recycle people keeps contesting.

He should support Fashola or Osinbanjo in 2023.

We need as many people to join the presidential race to fully reap the democratic dividends.

Even if perceived bad people want to contest, let them do so. They will eventually cancel each other out

Ominira de fun ipinle oduduwa.
the experiment called nigeria has failed, it is time for us to go our seperate ways

It's like this Oduduwa Republic guys are gaining converts daily o

chrisxxx:
Most Yoruba people do not support this. Their reason is that they will war against themselves. Are Yorubas barbaric or kindergarten that they can not govern themselves?
Nigeria exist today because of Niger Dleta oil. Any day it dries up or becomes worthless peacefully everyone would go to their tents.
To the one organising Oduduwa Republic my message to you is to publish your would-be constitution. Gather like minds and formulate constitution so people can read and decide either to key in or out.
IPOB should also do this. Who knows if those in control of Nigeria can see it and have a change of mind for a change in the present constitution? Nigeria can not continue like this. Those who want the country to remain one must ensure it is a habitable place.

What about the Tiv, Nupe, Ebira, Eshan, Efik or Anabuta ethnic groups?

AlexBells:
You welcome, I'm also learning Hausa, I used to work in my family farm in Enugu where we employ some northerner who speak Hausa language, they had been teaching me, I wanted to learn yoruba but since most Yorubas here are fluent in English and most of them can speak basic Igbo we either communicate in English or Igbo, for the northerners working for us, they are like three to four so they prefer to communicate within themselves in Hausa, since they were my age, I usually get along with them and I'm forced to pick up some few and basic housa, northerners live more like in a cluster here, so they won't drop Hausa for Igbo but once in a while they try to learn, but since most of them are not ethnic Hausa but other northerners they find it hard to pick another language while still trying to perfect their Hausa, some come from as far as Cameroon. what tribe are you.

I am a Yoruba man who has traveled and been to many parts of Nigeria but unfortunately haven't been to Alaigbo.

If Nigeria is serious about being a Nation, we need to build 'wealth creation centres' in each of the Geo-Political zone which will draw many people from far and near to live and work there.
In the process, they will learn the languages, cultures and world views of the native peoples.

In the 1960-1980s, many Agatu& Igede came to do farm works in the S/West and today the descendants of these people understand Yoruba language fluently and many have even inter-married with our people.

The Hausas don't mingle well with Southerners and prefer to live in their own enclaves called 'Sabo' within our cities because their worldviews is too different from that of the Southerners.

IamD18:
The hardest political goal in the world is to fight Tribalism in Nigeria.

Why?

Don't be deceived, Tribalism is more of a problem of the elites.

The ordinary suffering masses of Nigeria have no business with Tribalism.

AlexBells:
Amaka means good or beautiful, Igbo Amaka means Igbo is beautiful or Igbo is good, as for your friends babe back in UniLag, definitely her complete name could be Chiamaka meaning God is good or God is beautiful, it could also mean Ukamaka meaning church is good. Anything + amaka means that thing is beautiful or good. Buhari Amaka will mean Buhari is beautiful but ochichi buhari Amaka means Buhari's administration is good or beautiful, though I hope you know that in translation some taste of the language maybe lost so there could be some details to the Amaka that you will understand if you are more fluent in Igbo

Thanks bro for the explanations. It has also deepened my understanding of the Igbo language (one of the 7 languages I hope to learn very well).

I sometimes watch Africa Magic Igbo so as not to forget the little I have learnt.

Excuse my ignorance on this matter sir/ma.

Are BBNaija housemates supposed to be musicians/entertainers or they are suppose to transform into entertainers after the programme.



*I am not a fan of BBNaija and I only watched it last four years ago and it was largely due to pressure from my spouse.

AlexBells:
At the bolded, Abeg I'm Igbo, Biko Nwayo Nwayo, What is the meaning of the bolded, let's start there, we will come back to the Tribalist part letter, mentioning mods like if mods are angel from heaven, even Suen use to Sing Yoruba amaka in his bathroom

Excuse me sir; I have been hearing Igbo Amaka Igbo Amaka on social media especially Nairaland.

I also join them to say it (and sometimes add Nigeria Amaka) but I am not sure of what it exactly mean but I think it should a good thing.

The only Amaka I know well was a pretty young lady in UNILAG many years ago who was dating my friend.

SirMichael1:
That No. 10 spoilt it.

You need a good lady to marry , preferably between 27-30yrs.
This will help you greatly in making great achievements on record time.

stonemasonn:
We can still achieve secession through dialog among ourselves Christians, Muslims and Traditionalists. We may need to change the name of the proposed country and also remove the Oduduwa image on the flag.

Why changing the name? What's wrong with Oduduwa as a name?
Why removing Oduduwa symbols?

It's far better to identify with and promote our heritage than identifying with and promoting any foreign religion.

1) Go out now and look for any construction site in your town.

2) Wake up by 5:30am, pray for 10mins and ask God to uplift you ,bless the works of your hands and remove reproach &shame from your life.

3) Go straight to the construction site and join the labourers. They normally finish by 4 pm. Continue to this work (3days work, rest on the 4th day)

4) When you get your first pay (it's usually daily pay) buy a wine/whiskey for your dad if he drinks or a plate of pepper soup if he doesn't.
Just say you bought something for him out of your hustling today, don't say anything else

5) Join a contributory thrift scheme (Ajo/Esusu). Avoid Gambling, womanizing or drinking for now.

6)After a week, branch at the market, buy 10Kg bag of Semo or tubers of Yams +5 litres of red oil and give them to your mum.

7) Continue on the job while looking for other jobs/business that suit your taste/interests.

You may not have the luxury of time/energy to be going out to watch Football matches because the little time you will have when you reach home will be to eat, bath, relax with your family , listen to news and sleep.

9) When you get you get your contribution from the Esusu/Ajo, go and buy a wheel barrow, digger, headpan and shovel and start renting them out .
With time, add sales of nails, roofing sheets, cement and other building materials

10) Look for a good lady to be your wife.

11) Watch as the family respect you more especially when you must have rented or build your own apartment.

12) Thank me later.

NaijirianKing:
There are certain local governments where, due to close proximity and a thriving economy, may Yoruba from the SW have migrated to the area in search of greener pastures, some travel to Lagos, some travel North. Many Igbo live in Uyo, Kano, and Lagos, however that doesn't make those places Igboland.

There's no denying that there is a high presence of recent migrants from the SW, but Kwara is a northern state with mainly northern elements. Logically speaking, if these people were truly SW elements, they wouldn't allow themselves to be grouped into the North. This is just the reality.

S/West and North are Geographical terms and they don't denote any ethnic group.

You can learn about the ethnic demography of Kwara State by asking the citizens of the state across board or go to the State's website or better still live for sometime in the State.

KingAzubuike:
The pussies of those househelps are very magical. They have turned so many families upside down.

Nothing magical about it. It's pure human psychology at play.

1) House helps, no matter uneducated, uncultured, poor or ugly they may be are also humans.

2) The nature of their jobs may provide shelter, foods, money and meet most of their needs but conspicuously silent about one important need- sexual needs of the househelps!
Where, when and how the housemaids are supposed to have sex aren't factored into consideration and are mostly repressed.

3) Househelps can't freely bring their B/Friends home or take permission from their employers to go and visit their BFs. In fact, most employers frown seeing their H/helps with BFs.

4) To solve the problems, H/helps easily accept sexual advances from men around them e.g The Master, driver, Maiguard, Cleaner, relatives of their bosses.
Sometimes, H/helps sexual abuse the young sons of their madam.
One guy once told me that when he was around 7years, their H/help once made him to lick her vagina , telling him that it will turn to ice cream in his mouth.

JOACHINpedro:
Nice question but I don't think it'll ever gonna be feasible.

It's possible.

Kano State HISBAH Board has just arrested some youths for immorality and they are now in full gear to stamp out fornication & Adultery, Gambling , consumption of alcohol and petty stealing from the State.

Alexis11:
This is just the truth.

Even those that are born and brought up in some parts of Kwara are guilty of same.

You have to keep reminding them that they are not in SW almost all the time.

Even people in the core North don't regard Kwara as part of the North.

When I was working briefly in Kano State and one of my colleagues was trying to let me know he understands greetings in Yoruba language. Then I asked him how did a Fulaniman from Kano learnt how to greet in Yoruba and replied that he served in Yorubaland. So I asked you were posted to Ibadan? He said no, he served in Ilorin.

Apart from the ruling elites in Ilorin who (correctly) have partial but distant Fulani ancestries and try to connect to the POLITICAL Fulanis for Gov't patronage/protections, most Ilorin people see themselves as part of the S/West.

Onepeople:
what is your point if I may ask? If an entire region is not comfortable about how and where they where carved in, don't they deserve the right to ask for they feel is right for them irrespective of what the Hausa,fulani or yoruba think about it?thank God you did not say is a section of igbos. Oga respect regional rights and opinion that is only way we can exist as people. Don't cajole any region into what they feel is not right for them.

No body is cajoling anybody and I am 100% in support of the rights to self determination of the Igbos or any group to identify as anything they like.

However, it's wrong for some Igbos to always come online and be blaming the Yorubas as the reasons why Ikwerres-Ogba-Aniomas deny being Igbos.

Onepeople:
brother most of us knows all this, but a system that needs restructuring is decaying and those who have the power to make a genuine change has continued to promote divisions among us, the people are left nothing but hope which has no direction. I believe is as a result of failure of leadership that has made most people continued to support divisions.

Why is it that it's only Igbos that always wail online that some people are creating division among them?

The Fulanis are carved into NW, NE and N/Central.
The Tivs are carved into Benue,Taraba, Cross-River and Nassarawa.
The Nupes are in Niger, Kwara and Kogi States, the Igalas are in Kogi and Anambra States and we don't see all these people wailing that the Hausas and the Yorubas are responsible for their fragmentation.

Onepeople:
we are saying the same thing, if you go through my post you will notice that I am in agreement with the yorubas in Kogi & kwara state on their request to be part of the south west,but the issue I raised concerning some set of people who will go as far as condemning the igboman when such is done from their own end, I am an advocate of justice for all, the hatred exhibited by igbo speaking tribes within the Niger delta region against their brothers from the east is based on the lies and fallacies carried by the same people that are willing to accept a certain people as their own, for example their is a media gang up against the fulanis in nigeria , most of the stories are exaggerated, no Nigerian will like to be referred to as fulani man that is the same fit igboman has suffered.the west cannot be exonerated from all the propaganda against igboman in Nigeria. I just hope u understand where I am coming from.

Oshiko Bunkum!

Who told you that nobody will like to be referred to as 'Fulanis in Nigeria'?


The West has no business with Igbos-Ikwerres-Ekpeye-Anioma relationship.

About 98% of the Yorubas don't even know that there's anything called Ikwerres, Ogba,Ekpeye or Anioma. We just call everybody after Bini, Omo Igbo (Igbo Person)

I only got to know about these people because I am bibliophic and like to read widely.
Even at that, I only learn more about this Igbo denial stuff from S/East people complaining about it on social media.

franchasng:
Another senseless Lagos boy spotted.


Ikoyi is mostly made up of 90 - 99% non indigenes of Lagos. It was an empty Island, most part of it was waterlogged and bought and rebuilt by rich folks who are mostly not from Lagos state.


You young people of today should try and learn, stop being educated illiterates.


You don't know Ikoyi more than Forbes magazine.


Of course several millionaires and billionaires from the same Nnewi town live in Ikoyi, but they are talking of indigenes.

If you want to count Ikoyi, then also count Maitama, Asokoro, etc.....



Learn and stop arguing blindly!!

Guy, stop spreading fake news.

The real Forbes Magazine NEVER published such junk.

I challenge you to post the page (with dates) in the REAL Forbes Magazine and not some Blogs imitating Forbes.

franchasng:
You don't have sense, sorry to say that.


Most of you are teenage boys and girls without knowledge


Whenever you hear billionaire you think it starts and ends with Dangote, Otedola, Adenuga and the ones u know.


Go ask Forbes Magazine to name them for you.


I am not from Nnewi, but I must agree with Forbes that Nnewi is the richest community in Nigeria that have the highest number of millionaires and billionaires, go and find out.


They didn't say the community that has the richest person in Nigeria which Dangote's community in Kano will be the answer, they said richest community with more number of rich people.


Travel out of your place, stop living the normal life of your fathers and grandfathers who lived and died in their hometown and maybe a visit to Lagos and London and that's all. Learn to travel.


Before I turned 27yrs, I have visited 10 states in Nigeria and 3 countries in Africa, and by the time I was 30, I have visited 4 countries in Africa, 2 in Asia, 1 in Middle east and 2 in Europe, and 28 states in Nigeria; including all states in southwest, all states in southeast, all states in southsouth and few states in the north. That is the lifestyle of an average Igbo man for you and reason we know much more than those with PhD that refused to travel out of their state.

Mind you, I didn't travel to most of the Nigerian states to live and work or do business, I went out of curiosity to know more. I know Yoruba communities more than most Yorubas, so when I talk about Yoruba land, most Yoruba youths cannot challenge me because a traveler is wiser than a grey hair person.


You Yorubas need to learn to travel stop being cowards scared of dying if you visit other regions, of course that is what will make you brave and famous.

If not that Fulanis refused to modernise and accept modern lifestyle, they are the number one tribe that travel so far and wide and know every nook and cranny of all regions of Nigeria and reason they are fearless and brave.


Learn to travel and stop staying in your comfort zone in Ikirun, Ilesa, Ijebu or Lagos and be asking stupid questions

Why abusing the guy sir?

All this epistle for just a single line question; name those billionaires.

CalliDora1:
This is wonderful. But won't it affect her Chances of getting a spouse?

How will the spouse be to do doggy style with her nau?

Obichukwuu:
It will be Peter Obi/Kwankwaso for PDP, Orji Uzor Kalu/Bangudu or Zulum for APC. Ibos and yorubas will vote for Peter Obi, while Northerners and Middle Belt and Niger Delta will vote for Orji Uzor Kalu.

if yoruba don't want it this way, they can choose between Peter Obi and Orji Uzor Kalu and vote their choice. if they still don't like Ibos, they can relocate to Kenya and dwell there.

I guess you are the Chairman/CEO of both APC and PDP?

proeast:
Ndi landlock and padlock should come and discourage them too because it seems they have no coastline

They have a short coastline

WoundedLamb:
No, it's failing cause Africans have not mastered structured systems of leadership. What historical ties do the people's in the US have? What historical ties do Canadians have? But these countries have put in place some structures that make each region responsible for their own growth. We need to borrow a leaf.

Misleading analogy.

Those who started the USA/Canada were largely Western European settlers who had so many things in common (and they weren't in their TRADITIONAL homesteads) plus substantial African slaves which they used to build the economy of the new Nations.

People from Asia, Eastern Europe and other parts of the world are recent migrants who just relocated to the US/Canada to meet already established systems.

makinson2865:
Awww, that feeling when you d****k two IPOB pretty women.

Ibo women and yoruba d****k are like 5&6

Guy, stop this tribal bashing jare.

Men from anywhere can bang women from anywhere if the conditions are favourable.

It doesn't matter if the woman is from Israel and the man is a Palestinian or the man is a deeperlife member and the woman is a hijab covered Fulani babe.

Kwara1stson:
everybody na thief, but some thieves are more compassionate than others... Peter Obi na thief, Osibanjo na thief Akinwumi na thief but them Betta pass that burdillon thief

You didn't answer my question sir.

Which other thief are you going to vote against since you most hated thief is now off the radar?

BigSarah:
Lol...the day that mushin boy bragged that tinubu has won all his elections very well, that day I knew his record will be rubbished... Las Las it's the masses that keeps getting humiliated not politicians

Was Tinubu a candidate in the Edo Governorship election?

Tinubu contested elections in 1992, 1999 and 2003, all of which he won squarely.

Kwara1stson:
am a Yoruba but I will happily vote for a northerner than that burdillon thief.

So which other thief will you vote against if the Bourdillon thief is not on the ballot or do you think there will be no more thieves in Nigeria if the Bourdillon thief quit the presidential race?

Philipponzaghi:
Please pull this news down from Nairaland.

There is no Godfather in Abia, it’s only in Lagos.

The Orjis are just Satanfather and the PDP plundered the states and made it a model of infrastructural failure because we the people of Abia love dirty environment and infrastructural decay.

We love the scenes below and we will make sure we liberate Lagos from Godfatherism to look exactly like Abia roads below!

Stop embarrassing the developers of Lagos.
