Big lie The Binis where heavily involved in the slave trade. The oba just banned the flinging of Binis by fellow Binis Today nemesis is in full circle with Binis selling themselves knowingly into sexual slavery as pr0stitutes in Europe Karma sh1t rit there AreaFada2: |
Malawian:Yoruba culture was encouraged to thrive by the European slavers to stiffle the outlawed Igbo language, culture and religion. Why? Because Igbos where constanyly planning a rebellion or runnaway in their tongue. Outlawing the igbi language served to keep the yoruba snicth informed and also to break the igbo spirit among the igbo slaves. Igbo women slaves where also discouraged to breed with other igbos inorder to douse the rebellious spirit in the offsprings |
duni04:Google no dey collect money. Igbo uprisings in Jamaica and the surronding caribean greatly influenced abolition of slavery. The Igbos were more than ever to run away and suicide was also rampant among Igbo and Efik slaves who preferred death than slavery. But typical in today's world the Yoruba slave was very much subservient to his or her white masters. In haiti igbos also dominated the rebellion that ousted the French and made Haiti the first independent black nation in the northern hemisphere. So before you beat your foul chest that they speak Yoruba in Haiti know that your people where not trusted among the slaves back then. The only reason Yoruba language was encouraged was to stiffle the rebellious Igbo language which was used by mutious slaves to plan their revolt Slave so when ever you see rihanna know you are seeing Nkechi |
Yorubas are quick to claim Haiti but what they don't know os that Igbos dominate Jamaican culture and history Between Haiti and Jamaica which would you prefer to visit? |
In Jamaica today a slang for fair skinned people is "Ebo". This dates back to the slave era where Igbos were more likely to be light skinned |

OP your opening sentence says a lot about you and your many contradictions. You are Yoruba and believe you are the best people and then you descend into talking about equality among tribes and peoples. That aside, for you to take a time out froyour infinite jobblessness to discus so called myths of other peoples shows how inferior you see yourself amomg this same people! I believe that where Nationalism, race and tribal sentiments are taken as a sense of pride individual such an individual is an irreedemable loser! Racsim, Tribalism, xenophobia and Nationalistic tendencies always take root during socio-economic downturns and depressions. See NAZI Germany, 1933 and modern day South Africa. In modern day Germany, Europe and the US the most racist groups are mainly composed of uneducated losers. This is why Osun with it's teeming ignorant Tajus and Mulikats is the epicenter of Tribalism and they have a voodoo alfa priest cum refrigerator technician as their governor! |
They did not call for sanctions when the APC was in opposition and Goodluck in govt! Now they don't want their medicine served on their illiteraye gerriatic disaster in the making! |
So she should worship Buhari like you fools abi? |
If there is one thing you change chanting zombies share it is pure ignorance! Bala Mohammed was appointed Minister when he was still a serving Senator! No law barrs a serving Senator from occupying a Cabinet role. The "take a bow and go" was for both ex and serving senators! Mumu kolomax: |
[size=18pt]Sister Diana vs. Obama and His State Department[/size] Posted on May 2, 2015 by Dymphna If you ever had any doubts about Obama’s anti-Christian bias, this report by Nina Shea will lay them to rest. Why is the United States barring a persecuted Iraqi Catholic nun — an internationally respected and leading representative of the Nineveh Christians who have been killed and deported by ISIS — from coming to Washington to testify about this catastrophe? Earlier this week, we learned that every member of an Iraqi delegation of minority groups, including representatives of the Yazidi and Turkmen Shia religious communities, has been granted visas to come for official meetings in Washington — save one. The single delegate whose visitor visa was denied happens to be the group’s only Christian from Iraq. Sister Diana Momeka of the Dominican Sisters of Saint Catherine of Siena was informed on Tuesday by the U.S. consulate in Erbil that her non-immigrant-visa application has been rejected. Ms. Shea talked to Sister Diana on the phone and discovered that a consular officer named Christopher Patch gave this as the reason for her rejection: our Muddled East State desk (or their superiors) had decided she was an “Internally Displaced Person” and therefore a visit from Sister Diana would be a risky business for us because she’d claim refugee status once she got here. Sure she would, and would likely try to join the thousands of Christians swarming in?? Do you know what an IDP is? I didn’t either, even though our country bears some responsibility for “displacing” a historically high number of people in MENA, and particularly in Iraq. Ms. Shea interprets this arrogant decision for us: Essentially, the State Department was calling her a deceiver. The State Department officials made the determination that the Catholic nun could be falsely asserting that she intends to visit Washington when secretly she could be intending to stay. That would constitute illegal immigration, and that, of course, is strictly forbidden. Once here, she could also be at risk for claiming political asylum, and the U.S. seems determined to deny ISIS’s Christian victims that status. Don’t you like the straight face Ms. Shea keeps whilst discussing illegal immigration? What she doesn’t say, but I will speculate, is that this decision to keep out the only Christian in the visiting group was intended to be the arrogant insult it is. And I doubt the decision was reached at Mr. Patch’s pay grade; he was simply the messenger. [/spec] Ms. Shea continues [I will use bullet points to emphasize the information she gathered]: In reality, Sister Diana wanted to visit for one week in mid-May. She has meetings set up with the Senate and House foreign-relations committees, the State Department, USAID, and various NGOs. In support of her application, Sister Diana had multiple documents vouching for her and the temporary nature of her visit: Her prioress, Sister Maria Hana, provided proof of Sister Diana’s current employment contract for a teaching position, starting last February and continuing through the 2015-16 academic year. [NOTE: Sister Diana is a Dominican nun. The order she chose to join is dedicated to Saint Catherine of Siena. More on this later -D] an invitation from the Institute for Global Engagement another invitation from The 21st Century Wilberforce Initiative. a letter of endorsement from Congressional Representative Anna Eshoo. (D., Calif). So who is Rep. Anna Eshoo? Her wiki shows that she is the only person in Congress of Assyrian descent and one of only two Armenian Congresspeople; Eshoo is a Chaldean Catholic. She’s served in Congress for over twenty years and her district covers part of Silicon Valley. Her record should be a “safe” one for this administration, given that she first endorsed Senator Obama’s run for the presidency in 2008 and has been a very good Democrat, punching nearly all the Democrat tickets on gays, etc. But she has deep religious and cultural roots that go beyond her Democratness: As one of just two Assyrian members of Congress, Eshoo has worked hard to protect indigenous Assyrian Christians in Iraq from continuing religious persecution and political exclusion. She authored an amendment to H.R. 2601, the Foreign Relations Authorization Act, requesting that “special attention should be paid to the welfare of Chaldo-Assyrians and other indigenous Christians in Iraq.” …a strong supporter of the Congressional resolution recognizing the Armenian Genocide. She also supports closer ties between Armenia and the U.S. …fought strongly against certain provisions of the Patriot Act, particularly Section 215 (Access to Business Records), which gives federal investigators the right to obtain any tangible business record without obtaining a subpoena. …also introduced “Kevin’s Law,” which would have given the U.S. Department of Agriculture the power to close down plants that produce contaminated meat. As an Assyrian and Armenian American, Rep. Eshoo is co-chair and co-founder of the Religious Minorities in the Middle East Caucus. She also serves on the Board of Advisors of The Institute on Religion and Public Policy, a freedom of religion organization. There is more here. Note this last-mentioned position — that Eshoo is part of the Advisory Board at The Institute on Religion and Public Policy. Her service there would be an anomaly for the usual long-term Democrat, since The Institute is part of First Things, a conservative magazine/think tank. However, it appears that knowledge of religious persecution runs deep in Rep. Eshoo’s DNA. Ms. Shea’s digging here is commendable. She says further, Until ISIS stormed into Qaraqosh last August, Sister Diana had a distinguished academic career and had been teaching an intensive course on spiritual direction at St. Ephrem Seminary, as well as English and peacemaking courses. She, along with the town’s 50,000 other, mostly Christian, residents, fled for their lives from ISIS during the second week of August. Since then, the 30-something religious woman has served as a spokesperson for this community, as well as for the over 100,000 other Christians driven into Kurdistan under the ISIS “convert or die” policy. Through this, she has become internationally known as a charismatic and articulate advocate for religious freedom and human rights. Mr. Wolf, who met her in Kurdistan a few months ago, explained, “We had hoped to facilitate her trip to the States so that she could speak with great candor, as is her custom, to policymakers. Perhaps just as significantly, we viewed her as a critical voice to awaken the church in the West to the suffering of Christians and other religious minorities in Iraq.” Check out the sidebar on Shea’s page. She has been reporting on Christian persecution for a while now. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Some background on The Dominican Sisters of the Congregation of St. Catherine of Siena may help in considering the context from her point of view. The page at that link is a template for the “congregation” (a Catholic term denoting a particular order of priests or nuns) she chose. Note that it is a hybrid; the first focus is on Dominic (the patron saint of astronomers) and those who enter the Dominicans usually have a vocation, a calling, to teaching or preaching. Dominic was born in Spain, but he alighted in Toulouse when he began his small congregation: In 1215, Dominic established himself, with six followers, in a house given by Peter Seila, a rich resident of Toulouse. Dominic saw the need for a new type of organization to address the spiritual needs of the growing cities of the era, one that would combine dedication and systematic education, with more organizational flexibility than either monastic orders or the secular clergy [“secular clergy” are diocesan priests who serve in individual parishes]. He subjected himself and his companions to the monastic rules of prayer and penance; and meanwhile bishop Foulques gave them written authority to preach throughout the territory of Toulouse. Obtaining episcopal permission isn’t easy. Any given bishop and his bureaucracy has to see a mission within its boundaries as non-threatening to the establishment. So that was Dominic’s beginning — six men in Toulouse. By the time he died, the Dominicans had spread through southern Europe. [Yes, I know the Dominicans were later to be mired in the Inquisition, but their founder wasn’t one of those for by then he’d been dead and canonized for some time. That’s an argument for another day.] My point here is that Sister Diana, an Iraqi woman in a land of fierce patriarchs, is a well-known Dominican teacher and Christian preacher. To quote Ms. Shea again, Diana “has become internationally known as a charismatic and articulate advocate for religious freedom and human rights.”. Could the State Department be at all fearful that this woman might possibly have some effect on their anti-Christian agenda? Then there is the other half of the hybrid order to which Diana belongs: Saint Catherine of Siena, also a European — an Italian. Any Catholic woman who has spent time exploring beyond her “childhood’s lost faith” knows Catherine of Siena. She is the only woman ever made a Doctor of the Church (though it wasn’t made official until the 20th century). Along with Francis of Assisi, she shares the title of patron saint of Italy: [Catherine] was a tertiary of the Dominican Order and a Scholastic philosopher [“Scholastic” = Thomas Aquinas] and theologian. She also worked to bring the papacy of Gregory XI back to Rome from its displacement in France and to establish peace among the Italian city-states. You have only to read her biography to know she was, to put it kindly, a great trial to her parents. Who wants a girl-child who so publicly goes against the zeitgeist of the neighborhood? In the 13th century, Catherine tacked against it all the time. The life she led was singular in its devotion to cleaning up political life; in her positions as emissary she didn’t always win on points but she often softened up the opposition sufficiently so that what she’d been sent to accomplish won the day eventually. From across the centuries her strong personality endures. One can see why Italian women admired her spunk. It was so…so very Italian. Who knew that Pope John Paul II named a group of six as the patron saints of Europe? She stands alongside Benedict of Nursia, Saints Cyril and Methodius, Bridget of Sweden and Edith Stein. That’s quite a list, and all worth studying. The women in that group exhibit a strong spirit, but Catherine is more equal than the others. Swedes don’t appear to think much of “crazy Bridget” but that’s just the Northern temperament for you: Swedish culture insists that one not stand out of the crowd or ever be less than “nice”. This list of Europe’s patron saints spans the continent and beyond. It begins in the 5th century in Eastern Europe and ends with a 20th-century Jewish woman who died at Auschwitz in 1942. Each of them was the best of the best of her time. All devoted their lives to serving others. And so we circle back to Sister Diana, a teacher and theologian in her own right. Note that as a Chaldean Catholic she still chose an essentially Western Roman Catholic order. She probably knows more Western history and understands Western culture better than the time-servers at the State Department. Secretary of State John Kerry is from Massachusetts; the Catholic Church is still very strong there. Massachusetts’ Catholicism is a paradigm for multi-cultural tensions and an ongoing detente amongst the various factions — the Irish may predominate but they don’t arbitrarily rule the Italians, Portuguese, or the Greek Orthodox contingents. Let’s hope that enough episcopal weight can be brought to bear on Kerry to rule against his Muddled East “desk”. Or did this cowardly decision to ban Sister Diana go higher even than Kerry? Countless mistakes have been made in MENA. We have helped bring formerly sovereign states to ruin and chaos. Sister Diana has survived some of those gross errors, fleeing to Kurdistan with many other Iraqi Christians seeking to escape decapitation by ISIS. In the midst of chaos life still goes on; one of those lives is Diana’s, busy as she is with teaching and preaching. She has a job and lives in community with her own congregation. To label her a “risk” because she seeks to spend a week here talking to NGOs and politicians is, at best, arrogant chauvinism. Her place is with the people whose communities were destroyed by our inchoate “foreign policy”. Perhaps the State Department and the Obama administration that rules over it are both all-too-keenly aware of the power of a “charismatic” preacher coming here, even if it’s just for a week? President Obama is afraid of a nun speaking to Congress?? Imagine that. |
A congressional hearing was schelduled in Washington to determine from eye witnesses in Iraq and Syria the full extent of Islamic State rampage. A lone Catholic nun was elected by the minority Christians in Iraq who have since fled their homes and are now holed up in Kurdistan, to highlight their plight to the American people since Obama sees nothing wrong with ISIS. The Catholic nun was the only Christian voice among the envoy of Iraqis and Syrians schelduled to address Congress. The Obama govt has refused her visas because according to the White House she has been deemed an immigration risk who they claim may claim asylum if she gets into the US. Why is Obama preventing a Nun from speaking up on the atrocities of his Islamic State brethren? Is the US asylum system not designed to help people like the persecuted Iraqi christians? When I say this man is a bastard and a moslem fanatic una go say I am a bigot! Article loading... |
You are not a christian for if you were you will know that Christianity is a way of life emmulating Christ.

This week, on May 7, Saeed Abedini, an American pastor, will "celebrate" his 35th birthday behind bars in a prison for "violent offenders" in Iran, simply for being a Christian. He has already been held in two of Iran's most brutal prisons -- first in Evin, and now in Rajai-Shahr -- for three years, out of an eight-year sentence. According to his official website, "On 28 July 2012, during a visit to Tehran to visit family and to finalize the board members for an orphanage he was building in Iran, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard detained Abedini, asserting that he must face criminal charges for his Christian faith." American Pastor Saeed Abedini with his family, before his imprisonment in Iran. (Image source: American Center for Law and Justice) In an interview with Gatestone Institute, Abedini's wife, Naghmeh Abedini, said that her husband is still exposed to pressures and mistreatment both from the guards and also from different Islamic militant groups within the prison: "The hardliners and prison guards continue to harass Saeed and threaten him with long prison sentences if he does not deny Christ and return to Islam. Recently, prison guards have threatened that even if he serves the full eight years, he will not be released and that they will find new grounds to continue to hold him indefinitely." Mrs. Abedini said that his parents visit him in prison every Wednesday -- this was how she learned about his continued harassment by guards and fellow prisoners. "He also does not get clean water or protein," she reported, "and this lack of nutrition is causing his health to deteriorate. We have been able to communicate through letters. Unfortunately, any letters sent to him by the regular post have been undelivered and guards have lied and told him that he has not received any of the thousands of letters people have sent to the prison. These letters, even if never delivered to Saeed, are important to his cause. The Iranian government, when they review every letter sent to the prison, sees concern growing all over the world. Despite the government's attempt to discourage him, he is aware of the hundreds of thousands of people who continually advocate for his release." Mrs. Abedini added that their two children last saw him in June of 2012. "They miss him and struggle daily," she said. "We watch videos and look at albums of him with them to keep his memory alive. It comforts the kids. It is difficult for them emotionally, as anyone might expect. But they are learning to trust God and have the patience to wait." Other Iranian converts from Islam -- including the Protestant pastor, Youcef Nadarkhani -- were also imprisoned for sharing their Christian faith. Hossein Soodmand, who opened a house church in his basement after converting to Christianity, was executed on December 3, 1990 "for remaining steadfast in Christianity." The Iran Human Rights Documentation Center (IHRDC) reports: Under Iranian law, a Muslim who leaves his or her faith or converts to another religion can be charged with apostasy. In addition, any person, Muslim or non-Muslim, may be charged with the crime of "swearing at the Prophet" if he or she makes utterances that are deemed derogatory towards the Prophet Mohammad, other Shi'a holy figures, or other divine prophets. Both apostasy and swearing at the Prophet are capital offenses. While the latter has been specifically criminalized in the Islamic Penal Code, the former has not been explicitly mentioned as a crime. "It is for his faith – no other reason," said the Reverend Franklin Graham. "If Islam truly is a religion of peace, then why are they holding a man, beating him and torturing him because of his faith in Jesus Christ? If Islam is a religion of peace, then I call on the Iranian President to let Saeed come home to his wife and children and quit torturing him, quit beating him and trying to get him to renounce his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." As Pastor Abedini is held hostage in an Iranian prison, the negotiations regarding Iran's nuclear program continue. Mrs. Abedini said that she is hoping the U.S. government is pressuring Iran for the release of her husband. Shamefully, though, the U.S. government has apparently said that the four Americans held in Iranian prisons -- former U.S. Marine Amir Hekmati; Washington Post journalist Jason Rezaian and retired DEA agent, Robert Levinson, in addition to Abedini -- are not even a part of any of the current negotiations with Iran. Said Mrs. Abedini: "I am expecting that the U.S. government would not walk away from the negotiation table with Iran without having had secured the release of my husband. Saeed is a U.S. citizen. He is a proud American. He has broken no law and the Iranian government has admitted that his only "crime" was peaceful gathering with fellow Christian believers in private homes – and that in their eyes, this act is a threat to the security of Iran. Our government was founded on religious freedom – we must take a strong stand to ensure that this right is protected." "By releasing Pastor Saeed, Iran would make an international gesture of goodwill," noted Jay Sekulow, Chief Counsel of the American Center for Law and Justice. "Why doesn't Iran send a powerful message to the world by sending this husband and father of two young children home?" No wonder the great historian Bernard Lewis says that "America is harmless as an enemy but treacherous as a friend." Even to its own citizens. |
