Some times i wonder why africa recipes are in not internationally accepted,just like chinese and indian menu?I guess it is ,as usual lack of promotion and prejudice.We ve got great recipes.

How will our foods be internationally recognised when we are ashamed of being seen with our foods? You date a chic in Lagos and she will turn up her nose if you take her to a bukka to eat correct pounded yam and efo riro. Rather they want to go to Mr. Biggs to eat cake, meatpie and hotdogs!

tnaidaR:

PTH, get off the grass

just helping a sister here. Her faceless husband to be is probably tired of packing greek shit and wants to return to Nigeria.

Abeg hismichele relocate joo. Dont mind the shit packers on this thread. Nigeria is a developed country with too many "fancy jobs". There is nothing like corruption, we recently celebrated 100yrs of uninterrupted power supply, our airports are not cattle sheds and our politicians are angels.

Sell your house and assets, pack your daughter and relocate to Nigeria to meet an igbo man you have never seen. What kind of love can be better than that. Did i also mention that igbos are perhaps the most upright people in the world?

tnaidaR:

Never seen that. But seriously, Naija rough die. I mean, someone feeds off the coins he gets from pushing wheelbarrow? How on earth is that possible?

you are here debasing a "fancy" truck pushing job which is far better than the shit packing and corpse washing we all do abroad. Abeg dont insult our hardworking Nigerian brethren.

tnaidaR:

Subhuman condition in slave camps? damn!

you've never seen those air conditioned prison cells called factories?
I tell you Naija is more developed than foreign countries. . .

that your "fancy job" is a very poor one, what can beat working 18 hours in subhuman conditions in Chinese slave camps err sorry factories producing rubber slippers and plastics.

lol shit packing was back breaking today.
How i miss the "fancy jobs" in Nigeria.

Uloh:

my own case is settled.

@ doyin13, the moors have today to rejoice.

doublehark:

@ n-guage, iya aje,PTH I think you all did not get him well.I DONT THINK HE IS SAYING SHE deserves praises, all he is trying to say is its kind of swell that our mother tongue could get that far.Face it, How many millions speak Yoruba? can you compare the number to d number of people speaking the 2 world most spoken language? Let's not let hatred cloud us, i was equally suprised the 1st day i heard Yoruba on Encarta, its simply fascinating and i am proud to be of Yoruba origin.

there are more than 50million people all over the world who speak yoruba, far more than speak hebrew and yet the jews dont devote an entire thread anytime an African manages to sing a song in hebrew.
this attitude of "feeling proud" anytime you see yoruba in encarta or see a white woman singing in yoruba smirks of inferiority complex to me. It is not hatred, i dont need to see white men singing in it or find it on google before i show how proud i am to be able to speak yoruba.

kanz:

hi darling missed u loads nd loads.

awwwww that's a hug for u!

kanz:

@ PTH dnt mind them dey r jst h8ing.

u bet i'm not paying them any mind.

Orikinla:

PTH,
Let me e-mail Mr. Olumhense first before posting it.

thank you, i'll appreciate that.

orikinla, pls can you reproduce Sonala's article here pls?

k9ine:

Very funny indeed. Let's get realistic
In current Niaja, where a com. asks for a min age 26, 1 thing they forget is
current fresh graduate, lets say just finished their NYSC;
*At the time they entered pri sch, they where 6[/b]years( if your didnt touch the ear on the opposite ear, no adm.)
*[b]6[/b]years in primary school
*[b]6[/b]years in sec sch
* [b]1[/b]yr for JAMB
*At least [b]4[/b]years in the uni. most probably you get addtional 2yrs due to say 1. student strike 2. ASSU strike 3. complete labour strike( as in Frank Kokori's case - June 12)
*[b]I yr NYSC
*lets say 1[/b]yr to search for jobs in Nigeri's mass level of unemployment
Putting all the years together - you get twenty six
I ve been very fair in making this assessment. For you to make 26 years, you either; [b]schooled abroad, your father was rich - then attended a private uni, and some other variables.
So, you see

This is inherently a flawed argument. I did not school abroad, did not have a rich father and attended a public university. I finished NYSC at 23, my younger brother finished at 22 and several other friends i know of.

BABEELOVE:

----------denex, I miss you oh! use another name take come back now!!! What are you waiting for See as political section just dry!!!!

yeah, it gets dry when we have empty heads like you disrupting the flow of threads you have the misfortune of stumbling into.

Bankole01:



All this tok about Nigerians abroad na so so jelosi jelosi. Hao pesin wey be dokter or lawyer go begin smoke crack.

Nigerians at home are worse let me tell you. I have seen families with children unable to speak their native language. The family pretend to be like Americans or other and speak only Enlglish to their children.
We end up with little brats who don't listen to their parents and parents afraid to discipline their wards.

Now tell me who is the maradona, eroding their heritage!!!!!!!!

I have to agree with you here. What really is the Nigerian identity? yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Itshekiri, Ijaw, or Urhobo? How many Nigerians home or abroad identify themselves FIRST by their ethnic origins and Nigerians second?
We dont even have a unifying national identity in Nigeria, every attempt to do so is jeopardised by useless government policies like Federal character designed to keep us forever in remembrance of the fact that some Nigerians are more equal than others.

We have private schools were speaking the "vernacular" is banned or frowned upon. Children are taught to speak English like American or British citizens and we blame those abroad of trading away their identities? What identities are they trading away?

i tend to agree with some of the comments here. Wales tends to give the impression that we should be eternally grateful that a white goddess could descend from her throne to sing songs in yoruba. maybe we should be kissing her feet too.

darfur:

chai!!!!!!!!!!!!!this war don end? oooooooooooooooooooooooh abeg a[b]ny hope for those of us wey miss the war[/b]?

spoilt:

she has disappeared. where art the virgin?

Militia alias babeelove alias baby glow is so ashamed of her attention-seeking disgrace of a thread that she has chosen to go hang her head in shame.

+osisi:

This is cheating O.
How can you be half Igbo and can't speak simple Igbo?

Abeg, if my mother sees this she may start crying of shame. Kelelchi happens to be my igbo name.

sambie:

might most likely be a delta name (maybe itshekiri) don't know for sure

U got that right, she was itshekiri.

I long for the day someone would boldly put up a thread about the genocidal maniac called Muhammad without the fear of a ban.

Its easy to put up threads to thrash christianity and disparage biblical characters, when its done to islam it is quickly dubbed islam bashing, the muslim threads are fully protected and anyone who dares question mohammed is treated to serial bans! May the Lord have mercy.

Doyin13! How many applications will you tender on this board?
Take am easy, the Lord will provide.
