This cultism self. really what's the benefit

Do they pay them salaries or allowances

Seyitosino:
It is

Seyitosino:
It is

With due respect, it is not.

Acha/Fonio/Hungry rice is grown in Nigeria specifically Plateau, Southern Kaduna and Southern Bauchi and some parts of West Africa. My mother has cultivated it in the past and I've worked on the farm. So please I'm talking about what I know personally, and I always have it in my house.

The picture of the Acha/Fonio crop is the grassy plant below

On the other hand Quinoa is a plant that is not grown in any part of Nigeria and research shows it can not be cultivated as the climate here is not favourable to its cultivation. "...quinoa cannot be grown in Nigeria since the country's climate and soil are insufficient for quinoa production. Typically, quinoa is grown at altitudes of 8,000 to 10,000 feet in South America's Andean highlands." the quote above is extract from a site I researched

The picture of the Quinoa crop is the herbal/shrub plant below.

I hope I've been able to convince you now that they are not the same.

Peace

Who is she apologising to

Why is she saying you people

She should be apologising to the traumatized victim not to the public

Olorilolo:
This is Acha or Fonio( aka Hungry Rice)...

I'll tell you a quick story about this grain.
I work in the Health sector and I must say from my experience that one of the most difficult thing to control is the diet of a Diabetic patient. No matter the Nutritional advice offered and the consequent crisis, they are mostly non compliant. Can you blame them though, Food is life.

I saw this grains for the first time with my Mother-in-Law, she's been diabetic for the past 18 years and apart from the very first few years of her diagnosis, she's never had a single crisis. She swears by Acha.

It can be boiled and eaten with stew like Rice, blended to powder and used as swallow, used as flour for Bread, Akara, Moimoi, Pan cakes... Name it
She's living the life honestly.


Has anyone else heard of this grain? Please share your thoughts.

You actually don't have to blend it to make swallow with it, but last last it's your preference that does it though.

Acha is the food anyone looking to lose weight should go for, it can prepared in so many different ways and recipes.

It's truly grossly underrated, Nigeria should be exporting this staple, but alas a lot of Nigerians aren't even aware of such a wonder food let alone growing in commercial quantity. .

In addition to Plateau and Southern Kaduna, It's also grown in Southern Bauchi.

My house always has Acha in stock, I've introduced some Delta people to it

Seyitosino:
I think it is

It is not please

PressMyButton:
Most idiotic statement ever. 8 out of 10 times when this man talks infront of a microphone, he vomits trash. It is like saying, you deliberately serve people a plate of stone rice because you want others to be provoked and deliver clean rice to the masses. Worse of all, he was saying this in the palace of an emir. I wasn't informed of northerners write him a letter to come dig boreholes for them neither is he the first southerner to donate projects in the north. When we talk about how mediocre he was as Governor, some ignorant folks would start kicking themselves to the floor. He has confessed with his own mouth how shameful and disgraceful that he couldn't deliver an ordinary borehole.

Wow so wow, you won't use the same energy to pressure your non performing politicians to do what you elected them to do o. It's someone that is using his personal money to help the poor that you are flexing your muscles to denigrate o.

Ask the people there if the borehole is not producing good water for them which their politicians have failed to do over the years.

These kinds of mindset are the very reason this counts will never move forward.

nlfpmod:
Tony Elumelu has hinted at plans by Nigerian billionaires to buy Nigerian league clubs. This he revealed while reacting to a post by a social media user, Adedayo Mustapha, suggesting that.



Adedayo Mustapha



Tony O. Elumelu, CFR

I duff my hat for this guy for his genius idea, see as it about to bring a revolution in Nigerian league football. With the response Elumelu has given I'm sure something good will come out of it.

Imagine Dangote picking a club and turning it into a world class club instead of chasing Arsenal that isn't giving him any chance.

The investment will be massive, as it will be run as a business not some state government parastatals as the case is with most of our clubs

Some of the most disgusting things you will see today being celebrated

This only buttresses the fact that you can't touch Israel and go scot free.

The more they (Iran) come for Israel the more they will collect

LocalFARMERS:
A man dressed in mufti threaten to killa DPO and also threaten other police officers. The reason for his action is not known. But the man is seeing carrying a Knife and a Stone.


No matter what, we must respect our Police at all levels


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGg_DAWRQeE

It appears the man making the threats is a soldier, probably on pass, the police might have arrested his or a relatives bike and the soldier's intervention is not yielding fruit. Probably disagreements escalated to the soldier being threatened with arrest thereby prompting his reaction daring any of the police officers to come close to him.

This probably happened somewhere in the north.

This is my humble observation and analysis of the brief video

Sultannayef:


It’s very competitive get a fully funded scholarship. But if you get it, you should go!

Yes that's what I was looking at, honestly I love Australia and would like to get an opportunity to migrate there.

Usefulsense:


I am not a Migration agent and may not be able to advice.

However, when I decided it is time I leave Nigeria with my family, I looked at my age and saw I have already passed 44.

My wife was much younger and I decided to send her while I stay back with the children.

So, if your wifey is younger than you, you may consider sending her. That I what some men I met here did.

Thanks for your kind response, yes my wife is much younger than me, I should consider that more. But I also feel I might stand a good chance with a fully funded post graduate degree scholarship too. Well will try and weigh all the options

Maybe the road network in Abuja is what ramped up the North Central number cos I'm like where are the roads

Unless they are talking about the totality of roads whether tarred, paved and the roads that are yet to be constructed, even the non maintained roads. Cos there's a non existence of good roads in Benue, Kogi and some virgin never touched federal roads in Plateau State.

This report should be clear about the nature and state or status of the condition of roads there're talking about.

Usefulsense:


Australia really humbled me. Imagine a financial controller in Nigeria now picking and packing cartons in warehouses in Australia.

I'm closely your age mate, last year 2023 I strongly contemplated the move to Australia. A primary school classmate studying in UK posted a link on securing fully funded scholarship in Australia for Africans and I got interested, I did some research on what it would take, I discovered that IELST is necessary to actualize the dream so I started gathering materials for the exams. I even contacted a University in Adelaide and was told it wasn't yet time for admissions, I was told to contact some agents that will help with the admission process and all.

I started watching and downloading videos on YouTube about life in Australia and stuff, researching on other available options aside the fully funded scholarships.

In fact I have done a lot to get myself acquainted with life in Australia, but I have a wife and 3 kids and I've been pondering of late whether I should continue exploring the possibilities.

I have eyes only for Australia in terms of moving abroad. Please advise me, is the fully funded scholarship a good option for a family man or there are better options for people like me

Bullfallo:
Once they denied in a hurry. Knows its true.

The beans they are cooking in south south will soon done.

Tinubu need to call them to order

The story those villagers are spurring are CAPITAL lies. There's no way the soldiers would have opened fire on the community simply because the Chairman refused to go with them.

They should find other reasons

Itiskdg121:
I'm not in support of the said lady, but what type of man is your friend's cousin to start with?

Women are always the ones that suffer in situations like this.

That his classmate or friend that came to reveal the ladies past, isn't he guilty of the same offence for doing 3some with her yet got the audacity to ask someone not to marry her?! What if it's the other way round and he's the one being exposed for doing 3somes, orgies and all sorts of immoralities and his fiancee is asked not to marry him based on his past?! How will he feel?!

While I'm not saying the lady should be absolved completely, I feel if the guy wanting to marry is a good guy and never engaged in such magnitude of immorality as his to be bride is being accused of he should carry out a very good investigation to verify the allegations then confront the lady with it. A genuinely repented person will always start any serious relationship by coming clean through revealing their past first, if their new partner is meant for them they will see the genuineness of their hearts and give them a chance.

I strongly believe that guy that made that expose actually deserves to marry a lady like this one if she's truly guilty, cos how will you do nonsense with some girls and feel you deserve reserved, innocent and godly wives?!

He's quick to judge her and forgot he was part of her immoral past.

Talk about removing the log in your eye before trying to point out the speck in another's

ROTTWEILER007:
I asked a friend who resides in plateau what happens if the court up turns the victory of the current governor. He was quick to say "we die here". He swore that with the current happenings in plateau, they will never allow APC ever govern the state again. He claimed that those who wants the APC to return are only a few minority and their opinions does not count.

Biggest lie, nobody dies anywhere

PDP got 525k, APC got 489k which is even contested and you say few minority?!

Dey ment

Gentino:
Nigeria is a funny country where an honest and truthful person will languish in prison for telling Truth while crooks, dishonest and criminals are rewarded with luxury and political power.

Woman thank God that you came out alive because many people have gone to the world beyond without committing any crime.

Have you not heard of an athlete that was jailed in Nigeria for winning a race

This country is a real mess

Why are you referring to him as her

WealthyNigerian:
He found this and was advised to post it on Facebook so that those that knows much about treasure stones and minerals would help him identify it. But unfortunately, non of the comments has ascertained what exact treasure or stone this is.

I know that there are many greatly knowledgeable People on Nairaland that would be able to tell us what this is and it's value. I'm sending this Thread's Link to him immediately now so that he would follow the discussion to know it's value for certain. And so that he would take the necessary security steps in guarding that his Landed Property for the massive natural Wealth which this may indicate is abundantly there.

I'm sure that we shall be able to get our assured confirmation here. So, great Nairalanders, what do you think this is and its value?

On a serious note, you are supposed to snap this rock from different angles to enable people have a proper look to research further and help identify it.

Sadwaste:
No single African country was listed, not even South Africa. Yet North Korea appeared on the list.

So, with a the noise about Lagos and Abuja, Nigeria does not even have up to 10 skyscrapers??

Nairobi Kenya has more skyscrapers than Lagos

I'm surprised Egypt and South Africa are not on the list

And Africa do have some very beautiful cities though, Cape Town, Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cairo, Nairobi, Dar es Salaam, Lagos and and a few others.

SweetBuns:
They say that "beauty is in the eyes of the beholder", but honestly speaking there are certain calibres of men I will never go near no matter how hard they try.

To get straight to the point,

1. Short men
Oh my God.... I don't just know what to say about these sort of men. If I'm taller than you as a girl, then sorry but I can never see you as my second piece. You'll always be like a younger brother to me. No hard feelings.
Short men also have this irritating attitude whenever they see girls around, as if they're trying to compensate for their low height. And some even go to the gym and gets muscles.... But it just makes them look shorter like a 5 litre jerry can and irritating
Also, why in the world would I pick a short guy over a tall guy? I literally feel so protected and safe when I'm with a guy that is wayyyy taller than me (I'm 5'2 so my height is kinda average)... So ofc I'd want a tall man and not a mini man.
Imagine hugging a man and he's hugging your waist cause he's short ugh.
I wanna stand on my toes whenever I kiss him and strain my neck just to look at his face. No more no less.
Tall men also stand out more, they're far more attractive and I also want taller sons and daughters.
Who should the short guys date then? I dunno... But not me.
The bar starts at 6'0, but If you're like 6'2 or 6'3... I want your babiesss

2. Bald men
The only age where I think baldness is acceptable as a man for me is if he's like in his 50s or 60s. But if you're in your 20s-30s and you're already going bald.... It just irritates me low-key in a inexplicable way... Like why will a young guy have a hairline that receeds all the way to the middle or back of your head? Where did all your hair go? Gross
I also read somewhere that early balding is genetically inherited so that means my children too will suffer the same fate? God forbid.
My man ought to have a head full of hair well into his 60s, then we start talking about hair loss.

3. "Oju yo Bo" people
I didn't know the English term for this so I had to Google it. It's a Yoruba term for people whose eyes pop out of their sockets like that of a wall gecko. This is also something I don't like in my man.... I want his eyes to be like that of Henry Cahill... Neatly tucked inside and having small slit like opening.

Addition: so I just googled it and it's called prey eyes. I prefer the hunter one since it gives my man a piercing gaze and I just wanna hug him immediately.

4. Eyebrows
A man MUST have thick eyebrows. If you don't, I can't take you seriously

5. Men with bad posture

6. Men who supports man U

That last one was a joke but I'm dead serious about the rest. And I'm sure other girls will agree to some up there too.

At 5.2 any man shorter than you is a dwarf

I have known girls like you that disturbed everybody about "I want only tall men" but ended up marrying men shorter than them, some even dated the tall men but married shorter men.

Besides most of the supposed turn offs you are claiming is what you'll end up with, it's better you keep quiet and hope for the best than to brag about what you'll end up not having.

They forgot to mention Plateau State whose almost a decade of unresolved issues led them to not having a constitutionally recognized structure which has led to them loosing every contested position in the elections since 2019.

Two factions exist in the state and they've not been able to unite and hold a legitimate congress that will enable them to vie for, win and maintain their positions.

People would rather be emotional about it than face the truth and do the needful.

This is to show you how foolish this man is

Was/is Obi President?!

Did/does he have state powers to manipulate things?!

It is rather Tinubu that should be learning from the Liberian elections

The exercise is a very key part of it, but it's only one part o. He should make sure he attends to the other key parts too, if not he'll discover at the D'day that it takes more than physical exercise. I admire their commitment to this Godly venture and hopes it turns out as expected at the end

Actually the rate of divorce in Northern Nigeria is so high Nigeria would have been on the list above but this has balanced it out with a very low divorce rate in the Middle Belt and south.

It's no surprise almost all the countries on the list are Muslim countries, cos Islamic divorce laws allows it to be done as much as possible. It's why a typical northerner might marry as many as more than 10 wives in his life time while not being married to more than 4 at a time

Who want join military when bunkering and yahoo dey pay wella

Exactly the way terrorists operate

Una go explain una nonsense woke theory tire on why it's no longer woke to be chaste and disciplined.

If she wants to be commended for having sex she should go and do sex marathon and win GBR

No dey come SM dey shame those who have chosen to be disciplined. And that method the other people wey dey cry victim but soon turned bullies have been using this method without success

Wawelexy:
After the abolition of slavery, his master paid him off with a piece of land where he got married and gave birth to 9 children with his wife. he died in 1958 at the ripe age of 130 years.


Imagine having over 300 orgasms in one lifetime, including the semems that didn't reproduce and yet still lived a healthy life till the age of 130.. This man is a German Machine

If this man sees a hot chick that can give him a nice B.J at age 129, I'm sure papa will still have erection... Old soldier never dies

Baba was a legend, his descendants said he lived this long because he was well taken care of while he did his job

otipoju:


How can you enjoy sex...knowing that the children you bear will never be yours name , hold or train, but will become bounded by chains and made to slave for another man.

I am sure he did not know what exactly he was being used for. Perhaps it was presented to him that his master just liked watching him have sex with different women.

Because if na me, after a while, my duck no go rise again.

He might enjoy some and might not enjoy some, it was actually a crime against humanity what they did to him. They treated him exactly the way you will treat your Poultry or other domestic animals for business purposes.

Moreover, slaves had no choices or rights. Of course he knew what they were making him do but he had no rights whatsoever to object or resist unless he wanted to die

On the whereabouts of his offspring it's been believed that his descendants make up about 30% of the inhabitants of some Brazilian communities

GanagiBitrus:
I know, many Naija men will gladly accept to render stud services, especially if the pay is good.

As a slave he was not entitled to any form of payment, he was just lucky that his job required that he should be strong, healthy and he might have enjoyed a lot of the times and his master didn't slack at it. He was Angolan I learnt, and as per Nigerians there are some enjoyments wey you go enjoy so tey you go tire e go come they pain you o
