When will corruption end in Nigeria?
Think our politics need an overhaul.
Lootocracy indeed!

^^^^ they are nt kids but grown women. And though ur statement is funny, I find it difficult to laugh. Hope pple open up 2 discuss this issue b4 it becomes endemic.
I will share some real experiences later. Enjoy ur day.

GboyegaD: I have heard this many times but a lady who doesn't have any relationship in the university, should she force herself on guys around her

My point is, be positive whenever you are entering a relationship, regardless of the age and prevailing circumstances. Reminds me of a popular saying; "may I not treat my future husband as ordinary boyfriend". My hearts bleeds each time I see 'balanced' bachelor getting married to non-Nigerians while our sisters are remaining single @ home (Nigeria)hence no child, no family, impaired life fulfilment. And these countries (beneficiaries) still see and clasify ALL Nigerians as rogues and criminals.
I mean this cry of lonliness is a modern phenomenon, which I believe naturally should not be coming from a country such as Nigeria. We are not Iran, SA, Europe that are either suffering from shortage of men or high proportion of irresponsible ones. A typical Nigerian man thinks of raising and making life comfortable for his family, his financial status notwitstanding.
My advice again: Please ladies be serious with your man as long as he has a future and you share same values. And make it early cos most 'ready made' guys are either engaged or married.

Nigerian Economy! The exodus of naija men 2 further their studies & career is responsible for d suitor shortage being experienced. Naija women are now @ d mercy of other Afro & Euro women (4 real).
Advice: be VERY serious wit ur man while @ d varsity.

just wanted 2 giv more room 4 ur rants. Havin studied outside naija I can say intelligence is no birthright of any tribe or nation (Inc USA). But really yorubas arent bothered wit ur investigative journalism. No one is calling 4 d head of moderators here!

We yorubas appreciate ur findings, as we dont suffer frm psyc insecurity. I suggest we even employ u as PI so we can flush our system.
This however doesnt change d fact dt we are d brain of Nigeria.
Thanks again & goodluck wit ur future investigations.

Nigerians shd be logical & not emotional in thinking. Though I can never support Buhari presidency, a NATIONAL party that will break d hold of pdp is much desired. Rigourous screening of all office holders must however be its top priority. No more crooks!

What!!
Corruption, Tribalism, Nepotism, Terrorism, kidnapping & now XENOPHOBIA?
@ OP, sure u dont want us to add this to d ills already plaguing us.
Solution: Nigerians must start loving one another, respect & value shd also be placed on human life.

Journalism in Nigeria is a sorry case. They leave more questions than answers in articles. Though Lagos govt shd be commended, this reporter did a poor job....many loopholes. Professionalism needed!
However, its a miracle those kids are still living.

Im nt a fan of TB, but truth must be told, the man has a massive following in Southern Africa. Most pple (whites inclusive) av interacted wit want to visit Nigeria cos of 1 thing: TB Joshua.
Agree wit shymex on this, Nigerian govt. shd see investmt.

It appears our security operatives need serious training. Rescue operation is more of intelligence than force. Can't they operate at nite using advanced technology, & 'stunning gas' as d US did wit mr. Osama?

^^^Thanks revolva.
Thanks alh harem.
Years back, drummers used 2 praise my family with d name each time we visited villag @ xmas, though we 'r frm Osun.
Learning ones ancestry cld b interestin... ges we r all related.
Our diversity of shd b celebrated.

Pls wat does 'Tapa' mean? any relevance to 'Igala'?
Really want 2 know.
Thanks NLers!

Seems pple dont know wat cowardice really means. So, failure of America to attack Iran is cowardice?
Yorubas are thinkers & very diplomatic.
Terrorists (e.g BH) shd rather b called cowards for killing harmless pple, & nt pple who never act on impulse.

Hmmm Nigeria is indeed at CROSSROAD, things can only get better or worse. But I still choose to be optimistic.
Obviously, God is not happy with Nigeria & I believe it is time 2 act. This nation is indeed @ d centre of God's agenda 4 d world!

I apologise to Igbo brodas for wat akigbemaru wrote. But ur sensitivity & spontaneity amazes me. You shd av allowed the cultures involved exchange historical facts in peace.
And to all Yorubas, pls lets maintain d diplomacy u'r known for. Thanks.

The contention now remains who begat who?
I av bin enriched by info (e.g d ogisos) on dis thread, but wat hurts me is d comments frm pple dt av no biz wit d cultures in disicussn. Alh harem even provided more sensible analysis.
I enjoy history.
