Aregesola mismanaged the economy of Osun state but he has given the infrastructure of the State a face-lift.

This is Actually a 2016 report that's just been published in March,2018.

George Moghalu himself is an igboman and a one time governorship aspirant.

PointZerom:
As if your own people are not suffering in Nigeria of today.


Stupidity fall on you

President Buhari has failed abysmally to take Nigeria out of the woods but majority of the people that are opposing his re-election are doing so out of emotional hatred for the president( mainly because the president is not from their ethnic background or practice their religion) rather than genuine altruistic reasons to see a better Nigeria.
This will make it very difficult to defeat him in 2019.

I am sure you have basic cognitive skills challenge why can't you read and beg those who understand to break it down for you.

How many Nigerians are good people?

Few wicked men controlling a good country.

Okay, we have heard everything you said, now clap for yourself.

The truth about Awolowo's death, how and why he committed suicide [A] Obafemi Awolowo contested in 1983 for presidency but failed. He later died in 1987. [B] Assuming Awolowo was unhealthy, that means he would have died in his 4th year as president. [C] However, Awolowo contested because he was not sick and not too old, health-wise - he was healthy. [D] In 1987, he was questioned by IBB after evidence came out that he plotted to overthrow his government. [E] IBB gave Awolowo 3 options as punishment for the plot: Death by firing squad, Life imprisonment, or go on exile. [F] The Awolow family and friends pleaded for forgiveness to IBB,but he remained resolute and the please went on deaf ears. [F] Awolowo was later found dead in a room from an overdose in medications.

This writer must a very naive young man with little understanding of politics (especially Nigerian politics).

In real politics, every zone is important and politicians try to win peoples hearts in ALL the Geo-political zones.

Why introducing tribalism into this beautiful thread?

ConAir:
Nice one from the great Yoruba race.

Represent Nigeria positively
One love to all my Eastern people

If you believe this propaganda, then you can believe anything.

So if some Christians urinate by the road sides or support urination by the roadsides, it means Christianity support such acts?

python1:
The person I responded to is a Christian and he obviously support the dressing with exposed boobs. He even prayed for more of such cases while the Muslims are obviously against it.

I don't do intertribal e-wars.

you will never see a conheader in this thread

Stop smoking Shisha, its not good for your brain.

Pope22:
Nigeria has 36 states, buhari and ojukwu altogether has 12 letters. 1960 was Nigeria's independence and there are 6 days from monday to saturday. Remove the 6 from 1960 and add it to 52 weeks in a year and see that biafra has 6 letters. Now, since buhari and ojukwu has 12 letters, it means each has 6 letters. Obama has 5 letters, which means USA when added to Ojukwu will give 6 letters. Yoruba and Hausa has 11 letters together, 52 weeks in a year minus 1960 gives you East and North which means buhari will give you 6 letters while ojukwu will give you 6 letters also. From all these calculations, by the time you realise you are just wasting your time, you must have wasted your time reading meaningless things because you see buhari and ojukwu in it.

Remember, ojukwu has 6 letters, buhari has 6 letters, so

Leave the girl alone!
It was her wedding day,not yours and beside i didn't see her smoking anything.
There is no part of the Quran or hadith that condemn smoking.

This story doesn't add up.

1) You walked into your wife's room and sat on the bed... Do you and your wife live in different rooms?how many bedrooms flat do you stay with a salary of #50k?

2) Why telling your wife it was you who called her?...So you mean you don't know each other's voice?

3) You don't know whether to quit the relationship?... Are you in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship or marriage? Is quiting a relationship the same as divorce?

Tribalists and racists have this flawed assumption that members of a particular (their own) tribe/race are superior to members of other tribes/races which is not backed by any scientific or rational reasons.
A person may be better than another person on Individual basis but NOT because they belong to one tribe/race.

All TRIBES HAVE INTELLIGENT AND HARD WORKING members as well as lazy, dull and wicked peoples.

DonDiego:
You're actually busy here wasting your talent as a writer of fiction. Maybe you should further hone your skills at Chimamanda Adichie's workshops for potential novelists.

And while at it, why don't you go on and spin another fabulous tale about how Zik wangled Eni Njoku in as pioneer Unilag VC.

As for what you gleefully posted as your pejorative of the Igbo, I Go Before Others actually sums up the finest pioneering qualities of the people.

Such useless traffic are limiting the growth of Nairaland which has made many serious minded people to leave Nairaland or just merely reading posts while avoiding registration as members.

There are many creative ways of generating traffic (just like quora and other enlightened forums) with positive effects on Nation building than promoting intertribal e-wars.

imhotep:
Seun needs Igbo threads to keep NAIRALAND going.

Igbo amaka

Why must every thread on Nairaland turn to Yoruba Vs Igbo tribal e-war?

Seun needs to find a way to regulate this forum to minimize this dangerous and silly features of Nairaland.

Not exactly.

BankeSmalls:
Professor Kenneth Dike from Anambra was the first VC in this school abi?

He is now in 200L in UNILAG.

Which Agricultural students provide foods for you?
How many Agricultural students have a garden of just one plot to feed himself?

mrMeen:
then what of agricultural students that provide the food that the oh so "next God on earth" dine on to have the necessary energy to carry out their practice can we then call agricultural students "providers of humanity" or what.

I know all you have said but merely reporting the matter to police will teach them a lesson.

Even if the case will be settled out of court, they they will spend money to Lawyer/police and be rattled.

On a more serious note, I think it is best to forget about the family and move on with life.

LaudableXX:
Take it easy. It is his word against hers. The girl can deny that the baby (or babies), belong to him. Secondly, she can say she had a miscarriage, and received treatment for it, within that hospital. He never followed her to the hospital, where she did the so-called abortion. Neither did he say he knew the place, where the procedure was carried out. If the girl has a good lawyer, it will be thrown out of any court at the first hearing. Too much conjecture dots the whole story...

This is quite ridiculous.
OBA is a general term for a king in Yorubaland but each town/kingdom can have a special/specific title for its king to differentiate it from other kings.

1) The holy Bible was translated into Yoruba language about 150 years ago and throughout the book, the word KING was translated as OBA,not Eleko, Alaafin, Olu or Owa-Obokun.

2) Before Oduduwa got to Ile-Ife, several kings reigned in Ile-Ife and many of them have the word 'OBA' as a prefix before their names e.g OBAtala, OBAlufon, OBAlufe etc.

3) Thousands of Yoruba people have the word 'OBA' as a prefixes to their names (including ancestral names) e.g OBAfemi Awolowo (1909-1987), OBAdare, OBAsanjo,OBAlolu or as suffixes e.g Tobil'OBA, AdeOBA etc.

4) Before Oranmiyan got to Benin (he actually named the town, Ile Ibinu which was corrupted to Bini and later to Benin by the Europeans), there was no body called OBA as the previous rulers were called Ogiso, not OBA.

5) Urhobo, Ishan and Afemai are off-shots of Benin empire with close cultural heritages, yet none of them use the word OBA for king.

http://ipnnews.info/oba-of-benin-greater-than-any-yoruba-monarch-esogban-of-benin-replies-alake-of-egbaland/

"For instance, the one they call the Oba of Lagos, these are recent adaptations. In the 50s, there was no Oba of Lagos, what we had was the Eleko of Eko. That is the title of the King there. In Ibadan, you have the Olu Ibadan. You come to Abeokuta, you have the Alake of Egba land. You come to Oyo, you have the Alaafin of Oyo. In Ilesha, you have the Owa-Obokun of IIesha. So no Yoruba monarch had as part of his titles the word Oba except the Oba of Benin."

The guy was cheated period.

I hope you know that in some families/culture, its a spiritual taboo to abort (especially your first born)? and some spiritual cleansing/atonement need to be performed to prevent repercussions.

1000 of the girl can't abort my first born and go scot free (anyway, I never had a pregnancy outside wedlock).

alstacs:
My other worry is, arrest them for what?
Was the pregnancy terminated? Even it was, how would you proof it was not a miscarriage?

Even if it actually aborted, you will arrest the mother as who? As the husband of the girl you impregnated? Or you will represent the state and arrested them for procuring abortion? You don become government be that oh.

How can you even proof you are responsible for the pregnancy?

Point of correction sir,in Nigeria FORNICATION between two consenting adults may be seen as immoral by many (mostly hypocrites) but IT IS NOT ILLEGAL.

If you aren't a virgin man or lady on your wedding day, you are also guilty of fornication. Virtually ALL of us have engaged in fornication before and nobody is holy.

WORDWORLD:
"It is the PROBLEM of the parents........" well head or tail, IT IS A PROBLEM. "Fornication, though may seem immoral but really illegal" ABORTION IS A CRIME! Thank you for your mention.

Even Yemi Alade is half Yoruba, half Igbo.

Sharplakezy:
these Igbo people, there is nothing you can spell correctly

Wales is a constituent part of the UK and have
made their schools, road signs, most official documents and the media bilingual in English and Welsh languages.
South Africa's foremost university, the university of Cape Town run most of its programs bilingually.

igbodefender:
Caution should be applied in this because Lagos is a cosmopolitan city.

Irrespective of the circumstances that leads to his/her birth, every child is legitimate in the eyes of God and the LAW.

Fornication , though may seem immoral but not really illegal and it is a problem of the parents NOT the children.

WORDWORLD:
If the unborn were not product of FORNICATION (sex before marriage) it most likely wouldnt have ended in such a crime, the MURDER of those twins. One evil begets another evil. Another man may think murdering her, and her mum will be the best thing to do and not to arrest. And only God knows where it will lead to by arresting the mum, well most likely MORE PAIN to all. Such ILL DEED while sowing the seed is now affecting everyone. PAIN AFTER ILLICIT PLEASURE. Him better arrest him preck well, well, cuff am to him balls.

Report of Ultrasound scan done by the Op and his GF which showed she was carrying a twin pregnancy is a sufficient evidence and if the hospital where the abortion was procured is known, the police know how to get 'evidence' in such matters because that is one of their commonest means of getting money.

In Nigeria, formication between two consenting adults may be seen as immoral but not necessarily illegal, however abortion is a criminal offense.

miqos02:
can the op proof there was a pregnancy in the first place? is there a legalised relationship between the op and the girl in question? these are the facts you have to present before the police

Abortion,though widely practice is still illegal in Nigeria and the GF, her parents ,the abortion doctor and all those who aided and abetted the abortion can be arrested.
Even if they aren't charged to court, Nigeria police will use the opportunity to extort huge amount of money from them.
The Op has the right to take the matter up to teach them a lesson.

greggng:
This your story no add up. But if you are actually saying the truth then cut off all relationship with that family and move on with your life after all you both are not married. Arresting them for what? You are not legally married and what charges are you gonna press..?
