biolabee: The point I stated is that prosperity without culture is brutish and akin to barbarism

Any example to buttress your opinion?

Ujujoan: You are a disgrace to the whole yoruba race. You don't even know d difference between a firewood cooked meal and a micro waved one. Chei!

You need to be exported to your village for one month so you can grow some common sense. Oyinbo life don corrupt you finish so tey you can't even tell your right from your left.

I bet I can even cook your ewedu soup more than you. My ewedu broom is ever ready 24\7. Dey there dey form nah, yeeeeye!

Sharap! See why I say you are an OLODO!

Who cooks jollof rice with microwave? You are really a VILLAGE GIRL!

Many women have boasted about cooking skills better than mine in times past. Experience has taught them to shut up and never challenge me again! You are welcome to join the list!!!!

bettymafy: Out already! What is it with you and Uju? Address the issue and stop the empty attacks!

If you don't know how to read the book of genesis, don't come here and be quoting revelations in my face.

Uju is like a daughter. She is wild and energetic but can be tamed!

Ujujoan: Ok, I'll try to stop the yoruba attack. I only do it cos I know how much it upsets them anyways. They were accusing me of being d one with the dirty husband in the other thread and I only just saw d thread today because of gaggi and his aproko.

Don't worry, I'll stop!

Thanks! You are getting there little by little.

Am out of here now.

Ujujoan: This doesn't concern you Pataki. This is between me and dose yoruba iya akpatis who have taken it upon themselves to fight me just because I gave an opinion. If that means insulting their tribe then so be it!

Nobody insulted your husband here. Nobody even insulted your race here. You brought up the diatribe for whatever reasons or suspicions you have.

Deal with whomever you want to insult personally. But to insult a race collectively is what I do not appreciate and it offends my senses.

biolabee: Nice points @pataki on heritage and prosperity but i think its mixed up

Culture is a way of doing things and gives a sense of identity to a peoples be it in their language or food and dressing

Having a way of doing things gives meaning to that prosperity

The clay pots and carvings of yore are used in determining how the romans or nok lived

They cant be divorced from each other

Sorry, but what exactly is your point? How is heritage and prosperity mixed up?

Ujujoan: I pity you and your city boy life. Forming opata like say u no dey sh1t . . . . Yeeeye!

If you've ever eaten jollof rice cooked with firewood, you'll know what you are missing with you fry fry oven baked meals. I spend 90 percent of my life living like oyinbo, if I want to live d other 10 like a village woman then that's my biz.

Be there behaving like a bush man. Na you type dey ise fork and knife drink akamu. Mthcheeeeew!

Sharap I say! What is the difference between cooking jollof rice with gas cooker and subjecting yourself to the torture and environmental health hazards of firewood? I know you are redeemable from this path of stubborn village mentality that you have. Your husband does not share your inclinations and I am most sure, he shares strongly my mentality and opinion in this regards. If you wish to have your village mentality, do not force his daughter down the path you have so chosen for yourself!

I know your type, you would rather use a nkwobi bone as toothpick. Nonsense!

Ujujoan: . .

You are getting way ahead of yourself right now. Keep your ignorance to yourself. For someone claiming that she was taught the basic concept of respect, speaks volume when you lose online decorum and switch on your senseless tribalistic mouth to insult a race that most likely accommodates you and several family members in their region.

Ujujoan: It's not a competition between civilization and culture. You can still be civilized without abandoning your heritage.

Nigerians and their follow follow syndrom tire me no be small.

The day we learn to be proud of our heritage is the day other parts of the world will start taking us seriously.

Stop spewing nonsense!

Follow follow syndrome is when you choose to buy the latest brazillian hair, paint your nails, face, mouth with all the latest and modern MaryKay, Dove, etc and foreign body cream. What happened to your tura, atike, etc? What happened to you using 'igi dongoyaro' as your toothbrush? Why have you discarded them? Why are you not weaving your hair in 'Suku', 'Patewo' etc style? Why is your wardrobe filled with the latest pencil cut jeans?

If you want to be taken seriously, start tackling issues fundamental to human beings in your community. Heritage comes naturally when people dwell in prosperity. If you want to promote heritage in an unsafe environment, ask your husband why he has second doubts about going to the village! SHIOR!

Ujujoan: How are they supposed to 'choose' when they only know one life? Sooner or later they will be all grown up and living their own lives. If they don't experience the life now, how will they know what to 'choose'

OLODO! So many of the life choices you have made, you first experienced it before choosing it?

I am not the kind of person that will drag my child to a village without knowing if he/she wants to come. Especially if it has to deal with parents not being on the same page in regards to going to village.

Ujujoan: That's d beauty of it nah, if yam pounder no work I'll bring out my mortat and pestle and pound d thing to submission I'll cover my peruvian hair with a scarf and go and fetch firewood from the farm. I can survive in both worlds and I'm proud of it.

If I stay for sheraton small, I go go villa sleep for mat small too. Nothing spoil.

Keep living your unfortunate oyinbo life, me I'm cool with my village'ness' .

Sharap! Who are you deceiving that you know how to use mortar and pestle? We all know how spoilt you are, mixed with your alagidi head. Nonsense!

I can just imagine how dirty and black your nails are with your constant handling of firewood. There is something called gas oven, electric cooker and microwave. You hear?

LOL! Who dash you sheraton oh?! Common Anyanwu Guest house, you no mention, na Sheraton, your brain tell you make you type Village girl forming butter......orisirisi sha! Na village you come dey call 'villa'? Mstchewwwwwww! U wan start to dey feel funky abi? It is village people like you who will see ordinary dunlop slippers and be calling it nike trainers.

Keep living your unfortunate village life, me and your hubby are cool with our city boy life.

Such a man has nothing to fear. He freely moves amidst his people. Obasanjo cannot till tomorrow move freely amidst his people in Abeokuta. His house on Hilltop Estate is highly guarded. Jonathan cannot be free amongst his Otuoke villagers. What shall it profit a leader to steal money and lose your peace and respect amongst your own people.......

Bastardddsss In Power (BIP)

alutacontinua: UJU-PAT PATUJU UJAKI PATUJ
abeg, somebody shld help me out...which one fits well

LOL! Uju is too village oriented for me. I don't even think she knows what a microwave is, when her head is full of charcoal and kerosene.

Please don't give me hypertension, by linking me with her.

biolabee: @Pataki.. Let me ask you a question if you may answer

Do you think the coming generation will be as inbred in your culture as you were
If you think YES, then maybe my fears were misplaced

NO! For my upcoming generation, they are FREE to choose if they want to learn of my culture/language or not. I am not going to force a culture upon them which I personally deem irrelevant.

The only time I clearly remember visiting my grandparents village was for a burial ceremony which I had to attend simply because my father was not in the country. After two hours or thereabout there, I drove off.

Ujujoan: See this one oh, you want respect but you no wan respect youself ni! Mtcheeeeew! Respect ko respect ni

Anyways, I've decided to apologize and make up. I'm tired of d whole thing sef, let him keep her in d city and raise her with spaghetti meals, me I'm done arguing!

When next you want to go to the village, go alone! You still need to be taught how to respect your elders, seeing as you utterly fail to respect big Uncle Pataki.

Walai, you are lucky I am not your husband! Anyway sha, I won't even have married a village woman like you. Otherwise, all these your megedefegede arguments with him won't even spring up, upon realizing the danger/near death you subjected my daughter to.

Better quickly go and apologize. And get your head out of that village fast......

biolabee: Yet we did not get the best as a lot of us could not speak the dialect or even knew how the old people lived

That is why we have issues,.. even China and Japan are keeping to their culture while we have thrown ours away

All our young women are ashamed of their natural hair...

Care to mention some of the issues we are having? In this day of modernization and globalization, we might as well throw away all what westernization and development has given to us and go back to the archaic era you so much value. How many agbadas do you have? Do you even know how to use a dane gun? Where is your fila ajaleti? Why are you ashamed of riding your great grandfather's village bicycle, rather you opt for the latest Toyota in town? Why are you living in the city sef?

Ujujoan: What is this one talking about

Even though you are probably high on something, I just want to let you know that I don't 'see him finish' . . . I respect him a not just because he's my husband, but because he's also older than I am and I was raised to respect my elders.

But I'm not one of those yes sir yes sir women who have no say in their home. My concerns have never (and will never) be ignored and I'm not afraid to make my opinion known to the man I married!

If that is 'see finish' for you then you are the one with the problem not me!

You were raised to respect your elders, but you no sabi respect me? Or you think I am not old enough to be your big Uncle?

Why are you so stubborn even to your husband? Having your own opinion in the home is important, voicing out your opinion when appropriate is equally good. But in a situation where you prove your husband to be right, kept specific details of what happened with his daughter from him and you are now obdurate in trying to prove that you have a point with the father of your daughter, you are surely gonna lose!

You are only creating foolish problems for yourself if you think you are right here, and asking whether you should give in! Don't give-in you hear? There are many city girls who are gladly waiting to know that your husband is single and detached from village meeting mentality.

[quote author=Naija_lastborn]Heel Goed en met jou? Ik ben momenteel in Lagos, Meneer Pataki[/quote]Vind het leuk daar? Wanneer ben je terug?

Prima met mij.

Aangenaam.

Uju, do you want to turn your daughter into a stubborn village girl like you too abi?

Hey meneer lastborn,

Waar in nederland woon je? Hoe is het?

OK, LOL! You are very wrong in all ramifications.

You now hid your daughter's injury from her father? You wicked oh! What else have you been hiding from him?

Tgirl....you know me, I am a sweetheart not a fighter.

Whenever the debate is set and ready. For or Against the topic, I am ready both ways. Is Coogar or dayokanu gonna be amongst the judges? Those two can easily be persuaded by the woman power! Keep them away from your list of judges.

Ujujoan: See this one bragging about experience in pre marital sex. Your mates don born finish, you dey there dey 'sample'!

Ain't you like 50?

OLODO! Did I tell you what kind of experience I have had? You see why I keep flogging your redundant head now?

Virgin Uju before marriage! I know your type many years ago - holy sister for daytime, 23 in 1 for night! *Squeezes face*

I hope I won't be paired against you for this debate. I hate to intellectually terrorize small pikin like you!!!

Oh oh the subsidy money those thieves were bribed with has finished?

Phoolish NLC leaders!

[quote author=Efemena_xy]Tgirl, what's the update on this na? Abi na lost cause? Abeg revive this show...

I think a new topic would be better. Something controversial that touches the core family set up, with perhaps, roots in religion and/or politics that is bound to get both camps fired up to the point that even furniture will grow wings (literally)

So say for example, a topic like: Pre-marital sex between couples intending to tie the knot. Advisable or not?

What d'you think?? [/quote]My kind of topic, and one in which Pataki has years of experience on, across two different continents.

If Uju is not part of the judges, bring it on I dare say!

Mavrick2012: OK,now i understand wat u min.pls am so sory if u feel insulted,sincerely am sory

Oh no no......you owe me no apologies sir.

I just feel divorce should never be in your thoughts even at the slightest provocation from your wife. That you detest divorce is good, but you should not have brought it up within your topic and more importantly you should not even use it as a threat against your wife either now or in the nearest future should further provocations arise.

God bless.

Coming soon....shepopotamus theorem!

Mavrick2012: Tanks 4d advice.i didnt say am tinkin divorc,i said i DETEST(dislike)divorc.tanks again

Please don't play semantics with me. You clearly mentioned divorce in your post. Why would you think to such an extreme end of an issue you don't have a full comprehension on?

As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.

Ujujoan: Paranoid much

But on the other hand, if it's just 'platonic', why is she being so cagey about it

na wah . . .


Don't mind him, he finds it difficult to understand simple English . .

Hmmmmmm! Lion like me dey sleep, shey na ordinary cockroach wan wake am up?!

No make me knock sense into ya nkwobi head all over again oh!

Ujujoan: Will someone tell this man to leave me alone? I am happily married and not in the market for a second husband.

Even if I were, I'm sure OP won't mind sharing . . .

Pataki pls find someone else to obsess over ni . .

Mstchewwwwwwwwww

Mgbeke feeling funky!! Who is obsessed over you? Orisirisi sha!!! Pataki is NOT for grabs ya hear?!

Stop loffing another woman's property! Face ya own!!

And if I catch you following any of my posts on this section again! Wetin I go do you ehn......!

kingbang: All Soyinka did was embarrass himself terribly. PEJ right about now must be laughing her butt off at Soyinka's stewpidity the way i am laughing at yours now.

Please snap a picture of the shepopo laughing!
