adaptor4all: Do yorubas prostrate to images or elders..*just asking*

Do yorubas worship elders? Just asking too ..

bbpreye.:
I guess u're catholic! The instruction was don't make any! Don't make any! The truth is bitter ooooh! Don't make, don't bow! Simple english.

Image of what if I may ask? Get your facts straight first. And, yes, I'm a proud catholic
Read Exodus 20. God says we should not represent him with any image in earth or in heaven and we don't.

agabasam: no1 sees d image of God d fada.....we all see that of God the son.......

Tell them my brother. It is wrong to make God's image cause no one has seen God (Only the invisible father). That is only what the bible disapproves.

When yorubas prostrate to salute, do you call that worship? Don't say what you do not comprehend, rather seek for clarification. I don't want to argue religion though.

U bn dey hope 4 which title? . . Chieftaincy, I guess

Kenya's government plans to ban bride-price payments, legalise polygamy and consider couples co-habiting for more than six months to be legally married.

The controversial proposals were approved by the cabinet, but will not become law until passed by parliament.

The cabinet said the bill aimed to offer legal protection to all forms of marriages in the country - Christian, Islamic, Hindu, civil and traditional.

It is intended to give women and children protection under the law.

'Come-we-stay' relationships

The BBC's Muliro Telewa in the capital, Nairobi, says the decision to stop the age-old custom of bride price is one of the most contentious of the proposals to harmonise the East African nation's marriage laws.

Bride prices are commonly paid by most of Kenya's more than 40 ethnic groups.

Current customary law stipulates that a marriage is not considered legal unless a bride price has been paid, usually in the form of cows.


The proposals are intended to ensure that women with children get maintenance after a break-up
Even couples married in a religious or civil ceremony will often not be considered bound in the traditional sense by their families unless a payment is made.

Under the new proposals, co-habiting couples in what are known in Kenya as "come-we-stay" relationships will be considered married after a six-month period.

Our correspondent says many couples, among them college students, are in such relationships.

In most of these cases, people live together for convenience and can decide to go their separate ways without any future commitment, he says.

However, in some cases men have been known to walk out if children are born.

If the proposals became law, in rural areas chiefs would have to register "come-we-stay" relationships by issuing marriage certificates and ensuring that in the event of a break-up, maintenance is paid to spouses and any children.

'Against tradition'

The proposals on legalising polygamy are intended to bring civil law - where a man is only allowed one wife - in line with customary law where some cultures allow for multiple partners.

Despite allowing polygamy, the cabinet says men and women should have equal status within all marriages with regards to property and inheritance.

Gay marriages would not be allowed as they are banned under Kenya's constitution, and the proposals would not affect communities which allow women to marry each other if the older partner is infertile, as these partnerships are usually to do with property inheritance.

Our reporter says the proposals have caused a big stir on social media sites because many people say some of the changes go against traditional and religious values.

As 90% of MPs are men, their past performance on issues of custom and tradition suggests they are likely to oppose sections of the bill, he says.

Rubbish!! Almost everyone knew it was going to be close. Where is the prophecy in this? It is prediction not prophjecy abeg.

BarexB: Don't unlaminate it now. Make a colour Photocopy, take the call up letter to camp and when NYSC officials ask U to unlaminate it, do it in their presence. They will surely ask you to unlaminate it.. Don't panic and do something stupid now, just chill. Its part of being an otondo... Goodluck

Don't try coloured photocopy, it is of no use. The callup letter will be scanned to see if it was forged. Photocopying it will make the whole thing look suspicious. Take it to camp like that.

Fine babe with fine nyash.. But why u dey vex Is it ur nyash

The only one who can make the kingdom of God is THE ONE THAT GOD SHOWS MERCY. Whether u are a christian, muslim, buddhist, hindi etc doesn't matter. It is written " It is not of he that runneth, or he that worketh but of God that showeth mercy". We are also meant to know that no one is righteous enough to see God. It is by the mercy of God that u can enter the kingdom not ur religion. And u can obtain God's mercy by keeping christ's last and new commandment. "And I give you a new commandment, LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOUR AS YOURSELF. Period!!

Quite thoughtful of you Mr Governor

It is discontentment or greed in another form. Predominant in the female folks. I've had some of it, it's fun somehow but not for really matured people.

You can also free memory on your bb by clearing ur data log by holding alt then press lglg. This brings outyour phone log, then from options select clear log. Hope it helps someone.

I restart my bold 9700 @least once a day. Before updating from os5 that came with the phone to os6 it didn't need restarting on a daily basis. I found out that most unofficial os release (those downloaded from other sites other than on rim's website) have memory leak problem. You will observe your device memory (not memory card) moving up from 52% usage to 100%, then the phone starts hanging. Solution is; if u must do an upgrade use the official firmware from blackberry.com, it's free.

Most corrupt nation in the world - my own rating. Soon they'll start buying land in mars

What does this man expect? You want Trace to give preference to Nigerian songs when they have their own citizens to promote. I don't blame them at all. Why can't our country setup a music channel that will be recognized globally since we've got talent. Always depending on SA; MTN, DSTV. Mtcheeeeeew!!

Clear case of selfishness or rather misplaced priority. What is the purpose of acquiring an aircraft that cost a fortune when there are pressing issues that are unattended. Shows the level of our leaders' insensitivity and some clueless citizens are comfortable with it.
