She won't be convicted for Murder, she will get Manslaughter.

Really? Even at that there's a life sentence for manslaughter

RecentHistory:
See that one with bigi belle too going to look for trouble. Her face is already swollen with prolonged crying.

She will birth that child in the prison and if she is lucky, she will spend 7 years in jail.

7 years jail term for murder? Where is it done?

One Kobo cannot be cashed out from that ticket. My condolences

Betting na ur mate?. Leipzig and arsenal both dropping points at home. Can never stake any games beyond 5hundred naira. No game is ever sure. Omoh.

Which Leipzig?

LeopardX:
Guy rest. You're sounding like a clown at this point.

There will always be different kind of people in every society, with varying interests in politics, business, religion, academics, entertainment, sports, etc.

Now since you generalized by saying ALL Yorubas are only interested in political patronage and appointment, don't you see how that sounds? Like so naive and clownish. Maybe outrightly stupid sef.

It's just like saying ALL Igbos are only interested in doing buying and selling business. Wouldn't that be so wrong?

Very funny way of thinking honestly.

My friend this is not about me. Your statement only affirmed what the Yoruba writer said.

LeopardX:
Few reasonable ones Abi those who missed out on juicy appointments and are bitter.

I remembered when Jimi Disu of Nigeria Info fm, was always referring to certain Yoruba people in places of power as cousins, ex-classmates (in king's college), licking ass and all.

Immediately after 2019 elections when nobody looked at his direction, he began to attack all of them in his show.....till today sef.

You may call that patriotism, being reasonable and speaking up.

But many of us know that it's the bitterness of missing out of the national cake that is paining them.

You may be a neutral patriot, but trust me, they ain't.

This is the same mentality the writer is speaking against... Yorubas have jettisoned hard work, creativity and enterprise in favour of looking for political appointments and patronage.

What a shame!

Seun and Mynd44, is this thread not worthy of moving to the front page?

Creeper:
This gorilla is either gay or one of those lazy and ugly Yoruba bastards that depend on Igbos economically to survive.

For Yorubas to survive in Nigeria - they have to practise self-preservation and be more conservative. And that’s non-negotiable.

I think this guy needs to get a job and be more useful to himself and his family. No grown man should be depending on others for survival or getting fcked in his arse. And Chinedu isn’t Yoruba - he’s Igbo.

See them!
Awolowo must be turning in his grave looking at this generation of Yorubas.

Can Tulumbu lace Awolowo's shoes let alone parading himself as the political leader of the entire Yoruba race?

Is Tulumbu the best Yoruba Nation has to offer Nigerians?

Ola9ja23:

Insecured of IPOB 😂😀😀

See one of the insecure tramps Omoluabi Kola was talking about. Go and face Kola Odetola, a true Yoruba son. Wetin concern Mr Odetola with IPOB?

Kola Odetola, a true Omoluabi... God bless all Omoluabis and Sango to destroy every Af0nja disgracing the Yoruba race by eating corn and supporting a demented, frail, sick and old druggie to rule over him and his household.

The Yorubas are becoming an insecure, frightened and second rate nation..Kola Odetola
——. —— —— ———

No woman likes a clingy, insecure man.
But that is what we , yorubas , are becoming, a frightened, insecure and second rate nation.

*So fearful that we cant even accept one of our own because his mother is ibo* despite the fact that the Yoruba race is Patrilineal.

There was a time when the word swagger was synonymous with the yoruba, Reflecting self assurance and confidence of the race .

We exuded self belief.
The Ibos secretly admired us.
They adopted our clothes and music.
They flocked to our churches…. The big Pentecost non-Orthodox Churches , which were mostly founded by Yoruba Pastors… Redeem ,Living Faith, Mountain of Fire & Miracles , Aladura, Apostolic Church , Cherubim and Seraphim, Four Square Gospel Church , etc, all founded and headed by Yorubas !

*We accommodated strangers because we were so sure of ourselves, of our standing in the world, our stature, our swagger that we knew our guests were not a threat.*
Now all that has drained away.

We are now like the insecure man who marries a pretty woman and is secretly consumed by self doubt, fearing he is not good enough for her.
He therefore tracks her every movement, obsessively going through her phone, hates her male colleagues because he is petrified she will leave him for soneone better.

Is this how low we have fallen that we now fear those we once used to regard as culturally inferior to us?
We once said the ibos could not dance, could not dress, lacked poise and polish, were not as read as us.
*Now, we work ourselves into a frenzy about them taking over a Yoruba city ( Lagos) hundreds of miles from the nearest hamlet in the south east.*

One of the greatest ever yoruba leaders *Adekunle Fajuyi ,allegedly , once gave his life rather than live with the dishonour of handing over his Ibo guest ( Ironsi) to those who wanted to murder him.*

We now compete with each other to denounce our ibo guests whose only crime is trading and living in our midst, ideologically handing them bound and foot to the caliphate who hate and distrust us as much as they hate and distrust them.

*We look for wild statements of a few ibos to justify our fear of all of them and in doing so , demonstrating not our courage, but our fear, our insecurity, our deep rooted inferiority compkex* towards a tribe who have outmatched us and outpaced us in almost all spheres of life … business acumen , education , tenacity , can do attitude , and many more .

A tribe who rose from the ruins of a war in which they lost 10% of their population but refused to break or, to be broken and made to beg or ,to wallow in self pity, to feel sorry for themselves, did not fear those who beseiged their land, but went forth and conquered their land through commerce those who had conquered their land with bombs.

*They bought our property in Yoruba land while we frittered the proceeds on women and easy living.*
*Then , having wasted our inheritance , blame those with greater foresight and discipline of taking over land which we freely sold to them.*

*They take care of their relatives, training them in the family trade while we turn ours to house helps and drivers.*

*They pool their resources together while ours is used to tear our families apart.*

*They build businesses, while we chase every lowly special adviser job , looking for government jobs and contracts.*

*They have learnt to thrive when marginalised , that is, even when deliberately excluded from government largesse , they still have a lower level of poverty than we and their killers of the 1960s.*

It shows in sports.
In the 1980's the national football team was split down the middle between ibos and yorubas , with hardly any Northerner in the team , with the yorubas dominating the more glamorous and creative roles in the national football team .

For every Okala, there was an Odegbami, every Chukwu a Muda Lawal, every Stanley Okonkwo a Fekix Owolabi.
But *since the 90s and 2000s, the roll of honour in our national game has been claimed by rhe ibos. Who have the yorubas produced to match the profile and performances of Jay Jay Okocha, Emmanuel Amuneke, Kanu Nwankwo, Mikel Obi, Vincent Onyeama.*

When ability, fortitude, resilience, drive and determination is needed we see the ibos.

But when patronage, easy living and dissolute lifestyles are on show enter the yorubas and other groups in Nigeria .

*We cant even plan coups properly.*
*The most incompetent coup ever planned in Nigerian military history was the one plotted by yoruba officers in beer parlours over pepper soup and big stout against Abacha leading to its most senior officer grovelling (late General Oladipo Diya) before the dictator pleading for his miserable life.*
The coup before that planned by ibo and delta officers - the Gideon Orkar ( a Tiv Officer) putsch in 1990 saw the prime movers defiant to the bitter end, facing death with honour.

How did we end up here?
Twenty five(25 ) years of flirting with power at the centre, of living off and chasing unearned income, of prostrating before the caliphate has turned us to feudal retainers.

*Men who have lost their manhood.*
We are *cowed into silence when state sponsored gangs rampage across our lands raping our women, burning our farms, slaughtering our youth.*

The few who find the courage to fight back we disown, we call them ruffians( Sunday Igboho) .

When our Youths protest against injustice as they did during the EndSARS , we attribute it fittingly to an ibo plot.
At the same time , we failed to see the qualities needed to organise and execute a protest so well executed it captured the international air waves and imagination of the world for days and required courage, initiative and drive.

Qualities *we are now so enfeebled, so morally vacous and lacking , we happily agree courage and sagacity belong to the ibos and not us.*

A *fish rots from the head.*
Our legacy was built by giants like Fajuyi, Awolowo and to a lesser extent Abiola.
Men who gave their freedom and their lives rather than surrender their principles.
But what have we now? Bola Tinubu who, with his dubious background would never have been employed by any of us , if he had come to us for employment with such a history and background and who keeps quiet when millions of ibos are put at risk in his city by vicious tribal bigotry and ethnic baiting because of his lust for power.

Bola Tinubu who buried his head when his own people were being gunned down in churches in their own land at Owo by gun men under the protection of his fulani bosses.
In the halycon days of the founder of the modern Yoruba race , the closest Bola Ahmed Tinubu would have got to power would have been organising security at UPN party conferences.
Today he is the acknowledged leader of the Yoruba race.
How low have we fallen that we are proud and openly accept Bola Tinubu , with his background, as our leader .
Would Tinubu have laced AWO’s shoes ?

We have these last few weeks of eternal shame revealed our weakness, our insecurity, the spiritual barrenness that now lies like a void at the centre of our world.

We fear a yoruba man because he has an ibo mother?
Are Yoruba now matrilineal?
Thats how supine, how fearful we have become.

We forget the Yoruba killed in their hundreds last year by state protected fulani gunmen because we are desperate to be awarded office by those who defile our women and pillage our land.

*Principle counts for nothing.* We are *up for sale and not for very much.*
This is how far we have fallen.
We have won an election but lost our soul, we are in office but not in power.
We are now Pound Land ( that is, Cheap) land, okrika wake version of the fulani elite who inspite of their monopoly of power at the centre feared the commercial acumen and success of the Ibo for 5 decades , so much they turned on them whenever they felt threatened by their own inadequacies as we have done the last few weeks.

We are now a pale imitation of the Fulani, a frightened, insecure, tremulous and second rate nation clinging like leeches to power we seek at any cost because we have nothing else to offer..

The *Ibos have not held power for 60 years and thrived.*
We have just won it for the 3rd time in the same period and still like the fulani fear them.
This is how low a once great people have fallen.

tammie24:
Ibo people already calling for his arrest cos he blasted their yes daddy 😂

E still nor send una

Very predictable people

Ibo people like N3TRAL. Shame no dey catch una?

If the thug committed an offense, he should be made to face the consequences of his actions

Worst government in the the annals of state in Nigeria. 🤣🤣🤣 Abians una duh

I can guarantee you that Okezie Ikpeazu did far better than whoever your Governor might be. I'm sure you will never be proud enough to mention the name of your State Governor

RoyalBlu:
It's been over three weeks now I lost my younger sister to death. I'm still finding it really difficult to get myself together.

The pain of losing her so untimely has shaken me to my roots. The tears won't stop coming.

I've been told to try and move on and be strong. But how

The pain is unimaginable... But time heals and you'll definitely move on. Just continue to be strong

Ohislee:
The elections is come and gone and we have a president elect in Tinubu. A lot of Nigerians do not believe he his the right man to lead the nation forward while there are other group of people with a contrary opinions.

As a Nigerian, what are your expectations for Tinubu's first 6months in office?

I would go first!

In Tinubu's first 6months in office, I do not expect much difference from what we have experienced in Buhari's administration for a number if reasons.

1) 40% of his cabinet would likely be those already existing in Buhari's administration. These are the same set of people that have destroyed this nation in the last 8 years and are regrouping under the leadership of Tinubu. The lobbying is already going on.

2) Due to the elections, Tinubu have not been able to pay adequate attention to his health, thereby making him struggle health wise. After the inaugurations, I expect Tinubu to be in Nigeria max 2 weeks before he jets out to Europe for further treatment of his ailment. This might take 3 - 6months. Guess who will be handling the affairs of this nation? Kashim Shettima.

3) Islamic extremist like Shettima would not prioritize nation building, his number one agenda is the expansion of Islam. I foresee insecurity increasing.

4) Corruption: There would be an increase in corruption among those that are in the corridors of power like never before in Tinubu's administration. The fight against corruption would cease. Any attempt to fight it would be countered by blackmails. After all , they all know each others secret. Corruption can not fight corruption.

5) Development: In a nation where insecurity and corruption is the bane of the day, where would development come from?? In a situation where the money meant for development is continuously been stolen and citizens don't feel secured enough to be productive. For example people don't feel secured going to their farm lands or working late nights. Issues like these would drastically reduce any nations productivity.

We should just forget about development and progress. If there is any, it would be at snail pace.

There's not going to be any first 6 months for the old druggie. God forbid such evil befall Nigeria and Nigerians

yarimo:
hehehe is that all

The type of curses following you around no be here... You need help

Ekundayo7574:

Samantha124:
In every tribe, there are dark and light skinned blacks.

Yep, the languages are similar.

Yvonne Chaka Chaka belongs to which tribe? She was an extremely beautiful damsel in her youth...

Samantha124:
1. And lastly, the indigenous people of SA, the Khoisan.

The God's Must Be Crazy people, I assume

Samantha124:
8. Your favorite tribe, Zulu..

I've always known about the Xhosas and the Zulus... I guess both should be the largest tribes in South Africa. By the way, I thought the Zulus are usually pitch black in complexion. Your pictures suggest otherwise.

Meanwhile I notice there might be some language similarities between the tribes... Am I right?

IyaebeTheGreat:
I'm actually 60+ and when I was your age I was off Nairaland pursuing a better life and strategising on how to marry a very rich man and I got all I wanted. You need the advise most

I'm yet to encounter a more foolish 60 year old... Mental retrogression appears to be the case here. God forbid you're 60+

IyaebeTheGreat:
Yen yen yen yen yen

I heard you're almost 40... Find a husband, make a family and start doing productive things with your life. Spending all your life defending an extremely corrupt drug kingpin is the worst thing anybody can do to themselves. Auntie you need help

IyaebeTheGreat:
Why can't you bypass my comment without responding with bitterness? Carry your wahala and leave

Bitterness will always attract bitterness. Change your life

KiNg0G:
Will you blame me? Just this year alone I have slept with 28 girls all prostitute and I did it raw with some of them.

It started last 2week lymph node appeared at the back of my head. While streaming on TikTok they say it's the early signs of HIV. Since Thursday I have been feeling fiverish.. with muscle pain it keeps recurring. I got discharged on Saturday but ran back to the hospital this early morning because I couldn't sleep at night. The doctor was forced to do a general test on me, at first I wanted to insist because I know my yansh will open because have already concluded I'm HIV positive with all this symptoms but I had no choice.. I'm still here in the hospital fixed on drip and the test results just came in to my surprise the nurse said my sugar level is good and I'm HIV negative

This is the same status I have been avoiding
to check because I have made up my mind I'm infected.
I have been thinking how to go for HIV program and the antiviral drug

Your hands aren't looking like someone in good health. You need to redo that HIV test again after 3 months

You do know there's a war going on in Sudan, right?

How do I put this now, if your house has ever been on fire, I guess you would have time to get your passport from the building ?

You remember to pack your bags and other personal belongings but never your international passport And how do you intend to cross the borders of Sudan without a passport? Do you guys think at all or are you programmed robots?

IyaebeTheGreat:
Nothing good ever comes out of this state. I hope otti will change the narrative

You're sound a mentally deranged person.
