I'd advise you to post your prices here for all to see. If your prices are attractive, you'll get more than enough calls. Not posting your prices is only arousing suspicion

Thanks guys for the answers. I really appreciate your contributions. But I'm still not satisfied with the answers. I perfectly understood the explanations given about Sango, but I would like a more practical examples about real life people and not deities such as Sango. Questions 2, 3, 4, and 5 haven't been answered yet
CultureRe: Some Historical Terms In Yoruba. by Ryabcool(m): 3:21am On Oct 28, 2013
This has been plaguing me since the beginning of this year and has caused me to come seek enlightenment on this forum with the hopes knowledgeable persons in yoruba traditions and cultural values will be able to shed extensive light and thereby broaden my horizon.

Early this year, a close relative came to visit we had a few important discussions. Just as she was leaving, she turned and said "all these things are happening for a reason. The signs are too obvious. Shey o mo pe akanda omo ni e?"... I being poor in yoruba couldn't grasp the meaning but pretended to understand so as not to be seen as dull in front of my other family members. After she had left, I asked an uncle what “Akanda Omo” meant and all he just said was that it means a special person. I didn't find this answer satisfying but I kept shut and didn't prod further.

This leads me to ask the following questions;
1. What does Akanda mean?

2. What are the factors that can make someone be called an Akanda?

3.What relevance does it have upon the life of the person being called Akanda?

4. Is it a good or bad thing?

5. Any stories that could shed more light on it and enable me further grasp?

I sincerely hope my questions would be extensively answered in the shortest possible time. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks a lot..

I think I know what's going on... They just wanna give Jonathan sleepless nights. Those governors don't want the VP slot, it's all a chess game. These governors shouldn't be underestimated at all. This is intellect playing here, be sharp or be outsmarted. I await the true agenda in its eventual emergence to the eyes of the public
PoliticsRe: The Jonathan Disaster: Hard Facts Vs. Sentiments – By Frisky Larr by Ryabcool(m): 1:08pm On Sep 10, 2013
Jonathan could have pushed this agenda as well if he had – for instance – groomed a credible Easterner as a successor had he allowed decorum to take center stage and kept his promise of just one term. But poor achievements compounded by a very bad personal image nourished by poor television outings with gaffe after gaffe has endowed President Jonathan with the image of the world’s most unintelligent President that major world leaders avoid.
nothing could be truer than this... I actually wouldn't have minded an Igbo president so fr he could deliver. But as it stands, he has no hope of redeeming our his image. It's also a pity about the world leaders avoiding him part is also true. What a dense president

Christianity EtcRe: Ten Lies The Church Tells Women by Ryabcool(m): 5:57pm On Sep 09, 2013
Okija_juju: Whats a lie about this?!

According to Apostle Paul..


I Cor. 11 – 8 “A Man is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man. For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man: for neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man. But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ: and the head of the woman is the man: and the head of Christ is God.”

Refer...








And whats a Lie about this?!

Titus 2:5
English Standard Version (ESV)

5 to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.




Okay... So are you calling brother Timothy a Lair?! angry

1 Timothy 2:12 ESV
I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet.






1 Cor. 11:7-10

"For a man ought not to have his head covered, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man. 8 For man does not originate from woman, but woman from man; 9 for indeed man was not created for the woman’s sake, but woman for the man’s sake. 10 Therefore the woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels."


1 Corinthians 11:3
3 But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman, and God is the head of Christ.





Ephesians 5:23

23 For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body.







5 For this reason I left you in aCrete, that you would set in order what remains and bappoint celders in every city as I directed you,

6 namely, aif any man is above reproach, the bhusband of one wife, having children who believe, not accused of cdissipation or drebellion.

7 For the 1aoverseer must be above reproach as bGod’s steward, not cself-willed, not quick-tempered, not daddicted to wine, not pugnacious, enot fond of sordid gain,

Acts 2:17

17 ‘aAnd it shall be in the last days,’ God says,

‘That I will pour forth of My Spirit on all 1mankind;

And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,

And your young men shall see visions,

And your old men shall dream dreams;









1 Tim. 2:12-14

"But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet. 13 For it was Adam who was first created, and then Eve. 14 And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman being quite deceived, fell into transgression."







2 Corinthians 11:3

3 But I am afraid that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, your minds will be led astray from the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ.









Erm... DUH!!

Shey na the strong Leadership qualities of Jezebel make her go barb Samsom head from Dada to mohawk!





Summary:: The Bible has nothing to do with new millenium or Y2k compliance.. You either obey the word of God or you become an unbeliever.. You women should simply obey the bible and be submissive.. Its this type of behavior that landed Mankind in the problems we are suffering today. You women have started again. Why wouldnt you learn from your ancestors Eve & Jezebel.. angry

RomanceRe: She Had An Affair With My Landlord.. by Ryabcool(m): 5:29pm On Sep 09, 2013
Since when did a landlord have the right to dictate on how a full grown man should live his life and handle his personal matters? Haba!


Even the OP is spineless and a weakling. Since when did the landlord's opinion count in your life? His business is to manage his house and collect his house rent, not poke nosing.

I do not concern myself with the personal affairs of my tenants. Neither do I expect them to interfere in mine.

See such statement! See how bold he was in making such incriminating statements that normally would have him detained by security agencies in a sane country...

With this utterance, it is VERY clear these militants have the backing of Jonathan as they normally wouldn't be bold enough to say such things if it were another person at the helm of government. Jonathan directly and indirectly sponsors these people, quote me anywhere!

IBnatty: In the light of the new development, Raybcool, silent don and co. Shame on you.
you don't get it, do you? I never said you were lying or FFK was right, what I was asking for was enough proof to give Ūя̲̅ talks a real footing. I asked u to provide facts to support your name smearing, you couldn't... The fact that FFK retracted his statement before you could convince me that he was lying is a HUGE failure on your part. Next time, provide facts if you ever wanna be taken seriously by people. U can't spread mere speculations in a court of law, the judge would demand for evidence before you can be taken serious. That's all I'll say on this issue
PoliticsRe: The Real Femi Fani Kayode We Know. by Ryabcool(m): 6:23pm On Sep 06, 2013
IBnatty: I must be naïve to think You are FFK or one of his NL attack dogs. You are definitely different from him. See how you edited my comment and made it look like I am nothing but shittt. Thats exactly the way I go about spreading speculation without proof, turning facts into absurdities. Abnormal speculator.. Thats wat I am.

Dude, I need not give you a prove on this Bianca, kayode issue because the prove is there, you dont need to have x-ray vision to see it.
FFK say absurd tins just to get attention, that's wat he has just done. If you get that plainly, you need help urgently.
you need not prove anything on this FFK/Bianca issue? Then we need not believe anything you say too... Simple
PoliticsRe: The Real Femi Fani Kayode We Know. by Ryabcool(m): 12:25am On Sep 03, 2013
IBnatty: Gbam..
you just said 'gbam' to the other person's comment of "he can't keep a secret". Doesn't this show your acceptance that FFK indeed had something intimate with Bianca? I now see your grouse; it is the surprising fact that a yoruba man first entered what ikemba held in high esteem, secondly that he actually said it and Bianca's late denial only showed that she was trying to desperately save face. It so pains you, you then resorted to attack his personality in order to pacify yourselves. Pity!






PS; I'm still waiting for your evidence that Bianca and FFK were never intimate. Rubbish
