YorubaNinja:Do you actually move around with this manner of hate and bile in your head? I don't have any advice for you Mr. but hatred of the mind is a poverty mentality that leads empty pockets.... |

YorubaNinja:. You know, you will be expecting me to start bickering with you. But i will pass. I just know you are filled with bitterness and envy. So long son, I won't dignify you with another response as this will suffice. |

YorubaNinja:MKO actually won in Anambra and got ober 45 percent votes in other SE states despite an Ogbonna Onu "their Son" being the running mate of Tofa....stop misleading people Now this is not counting the igbo votes across the federation. My parents voted MKO and many of my relatives then Now to why MKO won in the north...the facts are already out! It was a deliberate move by the power brokers to counter IBBs boy Tofa from succeeding IBB. The opposing northern anti-IBB forces wanted "MKO to win" so that the northern consesus of not giving power to the south will override that southern victory and that way they will have done away with both IBB and a southern presidency in one fell swoop. And they got it. Put in a front yoruba ING president to calm the polity only to kick him out through Abacha. Politically Notherners got no love for any southerner so stop fooling yourself. |

YorubaNinja:Hardworks? If there is "hardworks" then there is 'feedbacks' and 'staffs'. |

tot:Well, since you need to be lectured, I don't mind doing some. Hardworks from this context is utilized as a noun NOT as a verb. As a result, it can be pluralistic in nature. ![]() Thank me later. ![]() |

YorubaNinja:Hardwork is a plural noun, deal with it. Why would "hardwork" be used as a verb? Do you know what a verb is? |

Praktikals:Yhu see, we have problem with unenlightened mind like yhu. Honestly, only a fool like yhu will make statements such as these. I have been betrayed and defrauded more by some Yorubas yet I will never come to say Yorubas are fraudsters or whatever. I still live and do business with the Yorubas and I have enjoyed so much loyalties and everything good from them than I have from my own people. Yhu idiots should travel and be enlightened than sit yhur ass down somewhere and making silly comments. Stop all these fallacies. Stop generalising. Don't be so slow. |

YorubaNinja:Instead of admitting he was wrong, see him trying to deflect. Anyway, now you know there is nothing like HARDWORKS. Shikena. |

Respect to a literary Legend. I love your works of art and yes its really inspiring. I wish you were still alive to see how things have indeed fallen apart. I love the lines in things fall apart. '' A voice one's heard is to be heard no more '' May God bless our heroes and keep them in the safest place. |
