Career / Re: Eighteen More Days To ICAN Exam by SaiSaraki(m): 5:01pm On Apr 30, 2009
Gettolove:

Get yourself a good tax text. SEYI OJO (Though relatively not up to date) but the principles are still the same.

Tax is always expected to be an easy exam but ICAN shock candidates with theories while most prepare for the traditional calculations.

all the best
I am also writing just this paper. Passed all but that subject in the last diet.
I have not started reading. Work has not allowed me to read. I will crash one week to exams.
I prefer theory to calculations. In theory, I can use idea, but calculation, it's either you know it or not.
Politics / Re: Is Dr. Olusola Saraki Christian Or Moslem? by SaiSaraki(m): 4:25pm On Dec 23, 2008
nuzo:

How hypocritical, stupid and dumb most nigerians can be when it comes to their religions.
Imagine this slowpoke trying everything possible to prove the corrupt bastard saraki is not a christian. He even tried to prove it by telling us that he is usually shown in the dailies when praying in the mosque. . . lol. That reminds me of when Ayo fayose was campaigning for a second term in office; he was shown in mosque praying and wrapped up like a masquerades while another footage showed him speaking in tongues in his office.

Nigerians and religions sha. . . . damn hypocrites!!!!!!!!!
Me, a slowpoke? You are stupid for saying that.
Dr. Olusola Saraki is incontrovertibly a Muslim. This is the first place I'll be hearing/reading Saraki being a Christian, and I have known and followed Saraki for almost two decades.I have lived in Kwara almost all my life and I belong to the Oloye School of politics. That Olusola Saraki is a Christian is the most non-sensical thing I've read in this Nairaland. It is outright lie. You may debate that of his children, but for Oloye himself, he's a confirmed Muslim. Take it or leave it.

Alhaji (Dr.) Abubakar Olusola Saraki, the Waziri of Ilorin, is a Muslim. He attends Jumaat at Oja-oba in Ilorin anytime he's in town. Didn't you guys read papers? Didn't you see him and Bukky's pictures in eid praying ground in newspapers the next day after last sallah? His wife is a Christian from Owo, Ondo state, though.
His children? I know his son, Governor Bukola Saraki, declares being a Muslim, prays the Muslim way, and attends jumaat and eid. His wife,Toyin from Ojora ruling family in Lagos, is a Christian, however.
His daughter, Senator Gbemisola Saraki, is the only one whose being a Muslim many Kwarans doubt. People say she takes to her mother's religion(i.e Christianity). But no official pronouncement about this. Officially, she claims to be a Muslim, but people says she's just saying that to gain acceptance among Ilorin people. The popular opinion is that she's a Christian. A few people also say Governor Bukola is also pretending, but this argument doesn't hold water, as Bukola has confirmed on many occasions that he's a Muslim.
But as regards Oloye himself, there is no controversy about it. In fact, one of the reasons why Laolu, another Saraki son, has not married was that the lady he presented earlier was a Christian and Dr. Olusola rejected her for being a Christian. He appears wanting to stop the trend of marrying Christian in his family.

Stop being jealous of the powerful and influential emirs, when the Obas and Igwes are just 'yes sir' people.

Politics / Re: To Hell With Your Oil, North Tells South by SaiSaraki(m): 9:01am On Nov 13, 2008
DRANOEL, you are not well inform, i spent some of youthful days in ilorin, kwara. we went to school with some of this people children you listed. I would tell you this because a yoruba man has a muslim name does not mean he is fulani. It is an issue of religion. I have family member from kwara and I would tell you this, they are as yorubas as Oduduwa. And they never claim to be fulani. What Dr olusola saraki said at that time, was misquoted by many people for political gain. It was politics.

Olusola saraki is as yoruba 100% as olusegun obasanjo, or chief obafemi Awolowo. only gambari may be 70%

1.TUNDE IDIAGHBON- 100% Yoruba

2.JUSTICE MUSTAPHA AKANBI-ICPC = 100% Yoruba

3.JUSTICE ALFA BELGORE-FORMER CHIEF JUSTICE = 80% Yoruba, I am not sure.

4.GEN. MOHAMMED ABDULLAHI-FORMER CHIEF OF STAFF = I am not sure

5.LATE GEN. ADISA- FORMER WORKS MINISTER = 100% Yoruba

6.THE GAMBARIS = 70% Yoruba ( mix blood)

7.THE SARAKIS = 100% Yoruba

8.TOYIN SUBAIR-100% Yoruba

9.AKANBI ONIYANGI- 100% Yoruba




Many historial record links the Yorubas with the north above the niger are nupe(tapa), some says the the kanuri(it as not been total proved. but you notice the similarity in tribal mark and same story from egypt, but many disagree). May be also the gwari. but I am 100% sure of the Tapas(nupe)


While below the niger but still in the north in quote are Igalla, Igbrra,Borgu,idoma, Tiv, jukuns , which group are trace or link to the yorubas. You would note similarity in words .
Oloye will not tell you he is Yoruba. He prefers to be called Fulani than Yoruba.
There are two descendants in Ilorin-Those from Alimi are of Fulani origin while those of Afonja are of Yoruba origin, but teh Fulanis are the ruling family.
Gambaris are Fulani. tell me, why did the current emir, then Justice Ibrahim Kolapo Gambari, drop his Yoruba name-Kolapo-when he became emir?
They prefer to be called Fulanis please.
The likes of Lawal and maybe Adisa are teh ones that prefer to go with Yoruba
