S'awo s'ogberi = impostor. (an awo is a real member of cult, ogberi in a non member, so if someone posses to be a member but keeps quiet in the presence of real members Yoruba says to such a person, S'awo s'ogberi to ba ri awo aadi ogberi to ba ri ogberi yoo di awo).

mekusxxx:
And there is no kidnapping in Yorubaland? Are you current at all? Kidnapping has actually moved back from AlaiGbo to Oodualand from whence it came in the first place. Weting be gbomogbomo again?

gbomogbomo = baby carrier, When Yoruba kidnap children in those days , it was believed that they use them for money rituals, most of them sold to foreigners too, not for ransome as Ibos do. Anyway, both reason are inhuman, criminal and not desirable. You do not have to kill to rule.

Egbe eiye l'eiye wo te e le = birds of the same feather flock together

EzeUche:
They don't even kidnap like we Igbos do. Just ending their fellow Yoruba life.

Yoruba politicians are cutthroat going back to the days of Awolowo.

Who was assassinated during Awo days, Akintola was killed by the 1966 coupist along with Sardauna, Balewa and Okotie Eboh and others.

ULSHERLAN:
y wud u fnk i wil come here 2 post tins dat aint real, aniwaiz as brein said it aint no longer news but wat suprises me most is the commissioner of police promising of unravelin whoeva dat is behind it,

Why are you surprised, that statement is expected now, even if he did not say it journalist should remind him or add it for him in their report. Shameless people. How many have they unravelled, Dele Giwa, Bola Ige, Funso Williams, Dokubo, Daramaola, Fasubaa, Dipo Dina, Omatsola, etc etc etc.

Wild Wild West!!!!!! when will Yoruba ro'nu, this is sad.

Port Harcourt working.

Yes oooo Ojo Madueke for Presidooooooooooooooo, so that we all can be riding bicycle or better, horses and donkeys. That way no more fuel crises, shikena.

I wish both of them a happy union, all the best.

recycling of leaders

That goes to tell you that there certain people who must rule Nigeria. The list has been the same since 1966. Danjuma et al are back, do not be surprised to see grand old Obj back in the saddle for the 3rd time somehow.

Mune:
As the saying goes, the truth may be out there,but the lies are inside our head. What does this issue have to do with tribe? I don't blame the white guy for calling us barbarians,and i tell u,some white people still hold that view. Is think NAIRALAND is full of people with a low sense of intellectual capacity. Some lack basic understanding of issues.

My brother, when one considers that 90% of NL is below age of 30 then you wonder what tomorrow holds for the nation. People are complaning of unjustifiable extortion and multiple taxation all all what come to some people's mind is religious and tribal sentiments.

It is not that simple, more that 500 cows are processed at Agege abattoir alone, daily.

Abagworo:
only five hundred people were killed and all these noise.these same people(both fulanis,biroms etc) killed more than a million igbos and that is seen as nothing till this day.

Pls dont write this way, that is too insensitive. two wrongs dont make a right.

One thing is that Erin Ile would never let Offa go anywhere, they seems to be more comfortable in Kwara, lol. Offa should have been with Osun State but how would the boundary be to place Erin in Kwara. Countries and States creations are not primaly based on tribal or language line, they have to put up better / stronger arguement if not, how many states would be created from Rivers State for instance, (Ikwerre/ Okrika / Ogoni / Etche/Abua/Ijaw/etc, etc) Having said that, I think Offa axis is not doing badly in terms of fair share of development, I dont know what is going on at Kogi ooo.

We should try to view issues devoid of tribal or religious sentiments. Any traveller on Nigeria roads would wonder how Nigeria businessmen make profit, with each local govt mounting road blocks, each police post mounting road blocks, all collecting money. The roads are terrible leading to so many preventable accidents and property losses. Their action should be a wake up call for government to streamline the payment, so that they pay a know amount to registered authority that way they could assess their business performance.

Polygamy, should be done correctly, for Allah's sake only. It should be discussed before hand, if well handed, even the first wife or first two wives, as the case maybe, could be part of the process. Our brothers should be awaken too to the conditions allowing polygamy. What do you say about a brother whose 2nd wife is a non Muslim, who may never get fully converted and could take her children out of the fold of Islam sooner or later.

Suicide Bombers are the true Muslims .[/quote]Lets remember that there were no suicide bombers during the time of Prophet Mohammad so no evidence of him approving their actions, as a matter of fact the first set of suicide bombers were Japanese, the Kamikazes, during the 2nd world war.
