FKO81:YORUBAS HAVE BEEN CIVILIZED EVEN WHEN IGBOS WERE COVERING THEIR BLOCKOSS WITH BARE HANDS.... As of the 7th century BCE the African peoples who lived in Yorubaland, were not initially known as the Yoruba, although they shared a common ethnicity and language group. By the 8th century, a powerful Yoruba kingdom already existed in Ile-Ife , one of the earliest in Africa south of the Sahara-Sahel. The historical Yoruba develop in situ, out of earlier Mesolithic Volta-Niger populations, by the 1st millennium BCE. Oral history recorded under the Oyo Empire derives the Yoruba as an ethnic group from the population of the older kingdom of Ile-Ife. The Yoruba were the dominant cultural force in southern Nigeria as far back as the 11th century. [28] The Yoruba are among the most urbanized people in Africa. For centuries before the arrival of the British colonial administration most Yoruba already lived in well structured urban centers organized around powerful city-states ( Ìlú) centered around the residence of the Oba. [29] In ancient times, most of these cities were fortresses, with high walls and gates. Yoruba cities have always been among the most populous in Africa. Archaeological findings indicate that Òyó-Ilé or Katunga, capital of the Yoruba empire of Oyo that flourished between the 11th and 19th centuries A.D. had a population of over 100,000 people (the largest single population of any African settlement at that time in history). For a long time also, Ibadan , one of the major Yoruba cities, was the largest city in the whole of Sub Saharan Africa. Today, Lagos (Yorùbá : Èkó), another major Yoruba city, with a population of over twenty million, remains the largest on the African continent. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yoruba_people ## IGBO HISTORY Aspects of Igbo culture such as construction of houses, education and religion changed following colonialism. The tradition of building houses out of mud walls and thatched roofs ended as the people shifted to materials such as cement blocks for houses and zinc roofs. Roads for vehicles were built. Buildings such as hospitals and schools were erected in many parts of Igboland. Along with these changes, electricity and running water were installed in the early 20th century. With electricity, new technology such as radios and televisions were adopted, and have become commonplace in most Igbo households. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igbo_people 1 Like |

Ritchiee:low life are you among social almajiri in Southwest [b]Kindly read Emerging trend of social almajiri in Yorubaland By Hakeem Jamiu There is a social malaise which is gradually creeping into the lexicon of Yorubaland and this is the ugly spectre of hungry children begging for food and alms at social events. Older women are equally not left out in this ugly but strange practice in Yorubaland. It is strange in Yorubaland because the concept of almajiri which simply means street urchin is common in the Northern part of the country. Yorubas use to refer derisively to anybody soliciting for arms in Yorubaland in the olden days as almajiri. The almajiri of the North are usually children between the age bracket of 7 and 20 in most cases. Almajiris are so desperate for food that any unsuspecting visitor to the Northern part of the country who goes to a restaurant to eat but mistakenly left his food to wash his hands is likely to lose such to waiting almajiris before he comes back for the food. I first noticed this ugly trend at a ceremony I attended a few months ago at Ayetoro Ekiti. Elderly and middle aged able bodied women from Kwara, Osun and Oyo states invaded the burial ceremony uninvited and were embarrassing guests who refused to give them money. Also noticeable were children with their begging bowls who thronged the venue of the ceremony soliciting for left over food and alms. The children were a pitiable sight. Poverty was clearly written on their faces. I have attended many social functions after that and the same trend was noticeable. But I became worried a few days ago, when I attended the burial ceremony of a friend's father in Ilesha , Osun State . They came in various groups and employ different methods in soliciting for alms. There were the elderly women who were busy harassing guests in the name of praise singing and would not leave until you part with money, there were the men with their public address system which they use in praise singing but which is disturbance and yet, there were Yoruba children in the mould of almajiris with their begging bowls scrambling for left-over and at the same time soliciting for alms. Fellow guests on my table at the event who were also journalists expressed their concern in unison about the growing trend of almajiri of various categories in Yorubaland. They all agreed that it has become a social problem. We started discussing and realised that the culture of begging in the mould of almajiris is alien to Yoruba culture. In those days before the advent of the British, the Yorubas are a proud people known for their hard work and industry. They practiced hoe agriculture and were well known as traders and for their crafts. Yoruba artists have produced masterpieces of woodcarving and bronze casting, some of which date from as early as the 13th century. Many of Nigeria 's best-known artists and writers are Yoruba. Other occupation of the Yorubas at that time were drumming and masquerading which would now be called showbiz. They engage in all the foregoing occupation but a Yoruba man or woman (able bodied) would not beg for alms as it is considered shameful and something akin to a curse. The Yorubas cherish their oriki (folklore) which is a poetic version of eulogizing the exploits of their progenitors which is an incentive for them to excel and even surpass their progenitors. The Yorubas have harsh words for lazy people. Such people are objects of ridicule and butt of jokes in the society. With this background, it is understandable why we became worried with the array of beggars at the Ilesha ceremony. After leaving the party, I reflected on the scenario of the almajiris in Ilesha and I was able to draw a relationship between Political almajiris and social almajiris. I discovered that social almajiri had its root in the advent of the politics of do -or-die introduced into the political lexicon of Yorubaland by apostles of mainstream politics especially ex-President Obasanjo. The grand Patron of political almajiris who recently passed away was Chief Lamidi Adedibu. Many have argued that his death has led to the proliferation of almajiris in Yorubaland. This is because those he hitherto dole handouts to must look for other means of survival since he is no more. These political almajiris are ready to exchange their mothers for few coins. A new political class of men without integrity and anything goes was created and they became political almajiris who survive on crumbs from their masters. They would rig, kill, maim and do all sort of things to acquire political power. With the ascension of these men in power, good governance became a thing of the past. Our collective patrimony was squandered by these political almajiris. Nigeria has never been so blessed with petro dollar with oil selling for $156 dollars per barrel but Nigeria has never been so poor with a chunk of the population living below poverty line. So versions of the political almajiris are the social almajiris that now invade ceremonies in Yorubaland. With these children begging for alms, a ready made market for thuggery and other social vices is assured. The activities of the beggars are not limited to parties. At bus stops in our cities, it is a common sight to see women most of who are still in their mid thirties, who would strap a baby at their backs and approach men with stories of despair to solicit for alms. Many of them would end up in bed with such men. This is another brand of alamajiri and these are Yoruba women. A violent version of almajiri but which is gradually being tackled in Lagos is the 'Area Boys' syndrome. These are Yoruba street urchins who are semi- armed robbers. The underlying factor in this new trend is failure of the Nigerian State on one part and the laziness on the part of these women. Most of them don't want to work, In those days, when everybody's occupation was farming you dare not beg. You must find something to do. But these days, our women and children are too lazy. It is either they steal or beg. In most cases a mother and child become almajiris at social events. So the question now is can a Yoruba man now refer derisively to a Hausa beggar as almajiri when we have many of them now in Yorubaland? The answer is no! This trend must be arrested before it goes out of hand. The almajiris in the North these days engage in novel forms of drug abuse like sniffing of gutter water to get intoxicated, sniffing of adhesives and other drugs so that they are ever ready to unleash terror on the rest of the society whenever they are called upon to do so by the political wing of almajiris. I strongly recommend that guests at public functions must stop encouraging almajiris by giving them money. But can government which itself owns the political wing of almajiris arrest this trend? Time will tell.[/b] 1 Like |

Those pictures doesn't change the fact that Ibadan is biggest slum Three high rises in middle of slumb RESIDENTS FLAY OYO OVER FILTH, THE DESTITUTE IN IBADAN [b]Residents of Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, have blamed the state government for its poor handling of the destitute and lunatics who have taken over major streets and highways in the city. A cross-section of respondents, who spoke with our correspondent on Tuesday, noted that the present administration in the state was not doing enough to improve on the state of the streets, which they described as too dirty. Investigations by our correspondent reveal that destitute, most of who are physically handicapped, besieged major streets in the city as early as 7am, harassing residents, especially those who are caught up in traffic and others on their way to work. It was learnt that they took off every morning from Saabo, Gege and Ojoo area of the city where they had their own leaders and chiefs and returned later in the evening. A member of staff of a new generation bank in the Dugbe, Mrs. Dupe Siyanbola, told our correspondent that the large presence of the lunatics and the destitute on major roads portended great danger to residents. Siyanbola noted that the carefree attitude of the state government towards the menace was uncalled for as the situation portrayed the state in a negative perspective. A cab driver in Mokola, Mr. Bayo Busari, alleged that government was probably encouraging the destitute and lunatics with its perceived non-chalant attitude towards the threat they could pose to the lives of innocent residents. He said, “Each time passengers are inside the vehicle and we are calling for more, the destitute will just rush towards the car and they will start disturbing the people demanding for money. “The point is that they are too many. Government is not doing anything to resettle them or send them back to their states of origin.” A non-academic staff of the University of Ibadan, Mr. Femi Fawole, urged the state government to copy the Lagos State Government in its handling of the destitute. Fawole alleged that the state government’s insensitivity to the welfare of the citizenry informed its lack of attention to rid Ibadan of filth and the destitute.

Ritchiee:Showing Ibadan in 60s doesn't change the fact on ground, my friend the real Ibadan [b]Ibadan house of horror: ritualists fake madness amid Gov Ajimobi’s alleged complicity Ibadan horror house in the thick forest of Soka Latest investigation by the Nigerian police have revealed that a large number of “lunatics” roaming Ibadan street are actually human body parts dealers who waylay their unsuspecting victims, snuff life out of them and auction their remains to the highest bidder. The Oyo State Police Command said, Tuesday, that two mad men they arrested in connection with the Ibadan house of horror have now confessed to be sane men who only try to heck a living from the sale of human body parts. State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Mohammed Indabawa said: “We have rescued 42 lunatics or presumed lunatics from the streets so far. Two people have been killed. Investigation, like I said, is ongoing and out of the so called lunatics, two of them have confessed to be looking for human body parts, but they are not yet related to the Soka incident. “That place has been there for a very long time, perhaps about 10 years. It was initially used by a construction company during the channelisation of Ogunpa River and after then the site was abandoned.” The police launched an investigation into the role the presumed lunatics play in ritual killing and human body parts dealing after a slaughter house was exposed in Soka, Ibadan in the fall of March. The investigation’s finding that those most of those insanity-feigning humans are actually human body part dealers may not be the only revelation as The City Reporters have now gathered that the current Oyo State administration led by Senator Abiola Ajimobi may be implicated in the despicable practice. The Ibadan house of horror is a bye product of a policy the Ajimobi-led government of Oyo state initiated after the administration, while attempting to aesthetically improve the environment, allegedly commissioned a certain Engr. Ibrahim Gbadamosi to rid the streets of destitute and the mentally-challenged. The task was simple: Get these people, lock them up in a government-owned property and starve them to death or so it seems the details of the contract specified. With the reported active connivance of the state government, Engr. Gbadamosi took the blind, lame, mentally challenged and destitute to the Soka forest in Ibadan. He put them in a building owned by the state government and left them to die a slow, painful, hunger-induced death. Governor Abiola Ajimobi’s bid to distance his administration from the gory killing of the destitute the state tried to “help,” has even fallen on angry ears. “If the governor had no prior knowledge of the house of horror, why did he not call on the police to conduct a proper investigation before ordering its demolition?” That was the question a social commentator asked in one of the columns published by The City Reporters. “Little wonder he was pelted with stones by an angry mob when he visited the scene. I suppose his continual denial of his government’s culpability comes under the heading of inspiring leadership. The leadership manual drafted for him by his godfather in Lagos.”http://thecityreporters.com/ibadan-house-of-horror-ritualists-fake-madness-amid-gov-ajimobis-alleged-complicity/[/b] |

Ritchiee:[b] S-West is Nigeria’s kidnap capital — Report Read more at: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/10/s-west-is-nigerias-kidnap-capital-report/“A result of a recent survey it conducted shows that you are more likely to be abducted in the South West than any other region in Nigeria.” Contrary to the perception that kidnapping is more prevalent in the South East and South South geo-political zones, a recent survey shows that people are more likely to be kidnapped in the South West than any other region in Nigeria. The 2013 National Crime Victimisation and Safety Survey conducted by CLEEN Foundation with support from the United States based Macarthur Foundation shows that the South West has the highest incidents of kidnapping with 5 per cent of the respondents from the region saying they have either been kidnapped or attempts have been made to kidnap them. The South South and the South East closely follows with a 4 per cent kidnap rate. The region with the lowest rate of kidnapping is the North Central region with 2 per cent. Rape and Attempted Rape With a 10 per cent incident of rape or attempted rape, the South South region is the rape capital of the country followed by the North East (6 per cent) and the South West and North West (4 per cent each). The South East is the region with the lowest propensity for rape with just 1 per cent. The survey also shows that the national incidence of rape almost doubled from 3 per cent in 2011 to 5 per cent in 2013. Most of the respondents who claimed to have been raped said they were raped in and around their homes. Thirty-three per cent said they were raped nearest to their homes; 19 per cent were raped in their homes while 13 per cent of cases of rape occurred in schools or places of work. Robberies IGP-Solomon-Arase The survey shows that cases of robbery rose 1 per cent from last year nationally. Kaduna recorded the highest cases of robbery with 43 per cent closely followed by Akwa-Ibom 42 per cent and Cross River 39 per cent. Jigawa and Kano States recorded the lowest cases of robbery with 5 and 3 per cents respectively. The survey shows that more needs to be done about security in and around homes as 63 per cent of respondents said robberies occurred in homes or near to home. Physical Assaults South East states recorded the highest rate of physical assaults, the report showed. Enugu State had the highest cases of assault with 84 per cent, closely followed by Ebonyi (77 per cent) Rivers (58 per cent) and Anambra (50 per cent). The cases of physical assault in Abuja rose from 15 per cent last year to 24 per cent. However cases of physical assault dropped drastically in Niger State from 68 per cent in 2012 to 6 per cent this year. Also physical assault dropped from 23 per cent in 2012 to 8 per cent this year in Jigawa State. Meantime, an Akure Magistrates’ Court recently remanded a 25-year-old man, Taiwo Ebenezer, in prison for allegedly kidnapping a 21-year-old, Olayemi Olatunji. The Chief Magistrate, Mr Sunday Adedapo, who handed down the verdict, said Ebenezer should be kept behind bars at Olokuta Prisons in Akure pending advice from the State Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP). According to reports, the court did not take the plea of the accused in spite of efforts by his counsel, Mr Ademola Abemkemo to secure bail for him. The accused, whose address is unknown, is facing a two count charge of conspiracy and kidnapping. The prosecutor, ASP Pelumi Adejuwon, had earlier told the court that the accused with others still at large, kidnapped Olatunji. Adejuwon said the accused and his accomplices were armed with a gun, cutlasses and some other dangerous weapons when they committed the offences. According to him, the accused committed the offences on May 7 between 8.00 a.m. and 6. 00 p.m. at Ayeyemi Street, Ondo. He said the kidnap was, however, foiled when the victim raised an alarm which attracted passers-by who apprehended the accused. The offences, Adejuwon said, contravened Section 516 of the Criminal Code, Laws of Ondo State, 2006. The offences also violated Section 3(1) of the Special Anti-Kidnapping and Anti-Abduction Law of Ondo State, 2010. The case was adjourned till June 22 for mention.

Ritchiee: This pained mofo don take his crying to a whole new level. News companies well known and even used by his peeps to whine is now owned IPOB . Hilarious enough, I know one of the media used,aka the herald is a USA company. the herald alone has more than 100 outlet worldwide, Nigeria is one of them, you pained nigga but that does not remove it's originality. Nigga as I said we know you're pained.....if you are a LOSER Noone toots your horn for you, you have to toot it yourself case in point you. Why you think not one igbo is posting igbo achievement to your painment. Why should we compete with people BENEATH us? Unlike una, without self acclamation, the rest of the world have noticed igbo achievement while una well still competing with us (at least your people can say they have you talking about them) The loser competes with the winner, not the other way around. It's demeaning to even lower ourselves to una level. We've passed Nigeria level.....hell we've held the educational statistics of that zoo for years (while una still dey do I get am before), now we are competiting with the rest of the world and they are noticing. When those above us in education like Asia starts a comparison fight, that's when we'll engage but when an AFRICAN group that Noone talks about and we've defeated repeatedly even in their own tuff regarding education wants to start a comparison fight, it's a complete insult to demean/ lower ourselves to people not even remotely on our level. Hell I'm even ashamed FKO81 decided to join you in your wailing. He should have just given you space to cry like rest of us are doing Cry on Nigga cry....take my advice and call up those news outlets and cry to them as well. Staying on NL only to cry isn't going to help the media know how pained Yoloba are that Igbo are named as the smartest African group by a USA study Finally, Yoloba are known AS THE CRIMINAL DEN OF NIGERIA. If the igbos were known as that FBI wouldn't have confused an urhobo as Yoruba, it would have been Igbo but alas, it was the other way around. Hell FBI changed their list for Nigeria criminals they looking for and yet again, majority on that list are yoloba. There's only been 2 igbo wanted by FBI while the rest have all been YOLOBA.

Ritchiee: I want even going to comment on this but you know what, to help you cry some more. .I'll comment on it. I ain't like the rest of them that take una statement hook line and sinker, I research Nigga. Yoloba were documented by Shaw and several others as a CANNIBALS as well. Not only that, unlike the rest have left it in the past, Yoloba are still the only set practicing cannibalism as well actually have a market for human meat. Read and behold Inhabitants.?—?The population of Nigeria is estimated at 15,000,000. The Europeans (mostly British) number about a thousand, and are civil servants, soldiers, traders or missionaries. In the delta district and the forest zone the inhabitants are typical negroes. Besides the people of Benin, the coast tribes include the Jekri (Itshekiri), living on the lower part of the Benin river and akin to the Yoruba, the Ijos, living in the delta east of the main mouth of the Niger, and the Ibos, occupying a wide tract of country just above the delta and extending for 100 m. east from the Niger to the Cross river. South of the Ibos live the Aros, a tribe of relatively great intelligence, who dominated many of the surrounding tribes and possessed an oracle or ju-ju of reputed great power. On the middle Cross river live the Akuna-kunas, an agricultural race, and in the Calabar region are the Efiks, Ibibios and Kwas. All these tribes are fetish worshippers, though Christian and Moslem missionaries have made numerous converts. The Efiks, a coast tribe which has come much into contact with white men, have adopted several European customs, and educated Efiks are employed in government service. The great secret society called Egbo (q.v.) is an Efik institution. Each tribe has a different ju-ju, and each speaks a separate language or dialect, the most widely diffused tongues being the Ibo and Efik, which have been reduced to writing. In general little clothing is worn, but none of the tribes go absolutely Unclad. In colour the majority are dark chocolate, others are coal-black (a tint much admired by the natives themselves) or dark yellow-brown. Cannibalism, human sacrifices and other revolting practices common to the tribes, are being gradually stamped out under British control. Trial by ordeal and domestic slavery are still among the recognized institutions. The Encyclopædia Britannica: A Dictionary of Arts, Sciences ..., Volume 19 edited by Hugh Chisholm Sanctions tend to vary according to the perceived offenses but details about the sanctions such as the type, the mode and the enforcement are scarce. If blood was spilled in a fight, the fighters would have to pay a fine and provide animals for sacrifice. If a wrongdoer denied a charge against him, he would be compelled to declare "If I am innocent, I will come to no harm. If I did the thing they are inquiring into, may I die in two days" (Ibid., 366). Most Ogboni rituals involved the sacrificing of animals, but according to Morton-Williams, some rituals used to include forced suicide, poisoning, human sacrifice and cannibalism . For example, if an Oba embarked on a course of action of which the Obgoni disapproved, he would have been coerced into committing suicide (Ibid., 367). If someone in the Obgoni cult broke the code of secrecy, "the Ogboni will try to poison him, or to paralyse him by casting a spell on his footprints" (Ibid., 370). A Tribe called Yoruba is indulge in the human flesh trade and even there are reports of cannibalism in the Eastern Nigeria where enjoy having human meat. Body parts and its trade are booming in Nigeria because of high rate of superstition and demand by witch doctors. Bodies which are unclaimed or did not found any place in cemetery or left partly cremated contribute majority of the volume of this flourishing business. There are open markets where one can buy fresh or stored human meat and its body parts. Here are the details from which one could have an idea about its norms and existence Lagos – A Nigerian man has been arrested after he killed a woman and ate her stewed intestines in a bid to cure an abnormally persistent Attention, police said on Wednesday.Funny enough, the article was written after you shameless Sahara reporters tried to spread rumors of a restaurant in Onitsha selling human body parts hence his inclusion of Eastern Nigeria.

Onenaira1:Choi! Choi!Choi! says Mr Ebede.That headline was influenced by a criminally inclined IPAD if not where is the report.Mr Ebede report:THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE KNOWN FOR ALL OVER THE WORLD: Leader of the Nigerian Igbo Community in Europe, NICE, Chief Chris Ebede, has faulted reports circulating in the United Kingdom and some countries in Europe which describe South-East Nigeria (Igboland), Anambra State in particular, as insecure and a no-go area for visitors. According to him, the claim that the South-East is a haven for armed robbers, kidnappers, advanced fee fraudsters and ritual murderers is untrue and unfortunate. He pointed out that the reports circulating in the United Kingdom and some countries in Europe had led to a steady degeneration of social and economic infrastructure in the south-eastern states, coupled with the neglect of the zone by the Federal Government and secondly by the poor and dishonest leadership and governance style of the governors in spite of bogus claims of achievements. “Another negative report was abysmal lack of employment generation facilities especially for youths in the zone which has exacerbated the rate of crime in the zone which, in this case, was true in the recent past in Anambra State, resulting, among other repercussions, in our people residing outside the state,those in diaspora not visiting home to contribute to the development of the state,” Ebede, who led a delegation of NICE on a fact-finding visit to Anambra, stated. He explained that the reports, which did not go down well with Igbos in diaspora and, therefore, were tabled at the organization’s biennial annual conference/convention and, consequently, the conference resolved to send the fact-finding delegation to the South-East to investigate the situation on ground. He added that due to some logistic challenges, the organization restricted its first mission to only Anambra, using it as a pilot project. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/03/europeans- wrongly-believe-igboland-region-criminals-ebede/ |
