jpphilips:
Anybody who can afford a cable subscription knows that IPOB is a sect of people whose IQ best represents Autistic behavior, they have learnt their lessons, most of them are currently enrolled in adult education institutions. I totally align with you on this. Catalonia operates a regional government and their leaders are fully representing the people by fighting to want out of Spain. Britain pulled out from the subtle confederation of the EU because she aligned with her people. Iraqi Kurds have powerful people who want out just as their people and while it would take a lot of time to see this happen, it would eventually. The IPOB thought it could insult its way into freedom but met with a light force which has rendered them useless. Until their politicians represent their interest at the very top, they would only scream and shout till thy kingdom come. |

Efewestern: I think this Kurdish stuff won't work, Iraq already threatened to strike , where is UN when you need them most?.
come to think of it , Iraq operate a good system of true federalism, what's your view on Catalonia referendum? The Kurds are in trouble and might implicate others in their quest out, particularly Iraq. I was watching Aljazeera over the weekend and I could remember the news concerning Catalonia and another referendum coming up. The people are riled up but the Spanish government arrested a whole lot of their regional government officials and released them temporarily after slapping them with 'financial misappropriation'. The Catalan referendum would hold but it would not mean a thing like the first. Worst still, Catalonia would experience another form of maltreatment which would transcend onto the football pitch as always. Sadly, the UN backs out of secession calls and tend to play dumb because she does not want to annoy anyone. While the UN claim right to self determination and association, she would readily pretend to calls of war and violence over secession until genocide plays out. South Sudan comes to mind. |

jpphilips: Those illiterates called IPOB have no clue that illegal referendum isn't easy anywhere in the world. Thank God for Buhari and Python dance that tamed those fucktards. Don't be too sure. I would have problems expected that you point out the clownish behaviour of Kanu's strange love with a Turk who promised him that Turkey would stand with Biafra when they are trying to beat down a secessionist group just like Buhari did. The IPOB has the tendency to become violent and might take up arms which would further broaden the unrest at hand. However, brute force would still be adopted. No country greet secession with open arms. |

Mynd44: Erdogan will always Erdogan Not really Erdogan alone. Every country in the world treat secessionists as rebels and wouldn't mind suppressing them using brute force. I saw the referendum take place on Aljazeera few minutes ago and despite the fact that the Kurds are excited, claiming the moment is historic, Turkey has made it known that the result of the referendum (most likely to support the secession of Iraqi Kurds) is not binding and does not hold water. Iraq is hyper already and the U.S. is scared because this would divert attention from the dreaded ISIL. Sadly, Erdogan's moves are greatly similar to Buhari's and it is no surprising because every world leader out there would protect his or her interest. |

Iranian news agency IRNA said Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani had called Abadi late Sunday to reiterate his support.
But Barzani said the Kurds’ “partnership with Baghdad” since the ouster of dictator Saddam Hussein in a 2003 US-led invasion had failed.
He however said the vote was “not for defining borders or imposing a fait accompli.”
“We want a dialogue with Baghdad to resolve the problems, and the dialogue can last one or two years,” Barzani said of zones such as Kirkuk. https://www.timesofisrael.com/erdogan-threatens-military-action-over-iraqi-kurdish-referendum/ |

The nonbinding vote, initiated by veteran leader Massud Barzani, has angered not only Iraq’s federal government but also neighboring Turkey and Iran, who are concerned it could stoke separatist aspirations among their own sizable Kurdish minorities.
The United States and other Western nations have also raised concerns, saying the vote could hamper the fight against the Islamic State terror group in which cooperation between Baghdad and the Kurds has been key.
Left without a state of their own when the borders of the Middle East were redrawn after World War I, the Kurds see themselves as the world’s largest stateless people.
The non-Arab ethnic group number between 25 and 35 million people spread across Iraq, Iran, Turkey and Syria.
Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi on Sunday pledged to take all the “necessary measures” to protect the country’s unity as his government urged all countries to deal only with it on oil transactions.
Abadi said the Kurds’ unilateral decision to stage a referendum affected both Iraqi and regional security, and was “unconstitutional and against civil peace”.
Hours later, the Iraqi government called on all countries “to deal only with it on matters of oil and borders”.
The Iraqi Kurds export an average 600,000 barrels per day (bpd) through a pipeline running through Turkey to Ceyhan on the Mediterranean. https://www.timesofisrael.com/erdogan-threatens-military-action-over-iraqi-kurdish-referendum/ |

Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim also commented on the Kurdish independence referendum, saying his country is considering closing down its airspace as well as a border gate to northern Iraq.
Yildirim said on Monday that officers and experts from Iraq’s army would join military exercises that Turkey launched along the border in an apparent warning to the Iraqi Kurds.
The Turkish premier said Ankara would from now on “enter a strong” dialogue with Baghdad, saying it regarded the central government in the Irai capital as the legitimate authority over border crossings, airports and oil trade in the Kurdish region.
He said Turkey had received a formal request from Baghdad requesting the closure of the airspace and border crossing. Yildirim also suggested that Turkey would take action if the Turkmen population came under attack or if Turks encountered “obstructions or problems” at the border crossing.
Despite the threats from Turkey, Iraqi Kurds went ahead with their independence referendum Monday, defying warnings from Baghdad and their neighbors in a historic step towards a national dream. https://www.timesofisrael.com/erdogan-threatens-military-action-over-iraqi-kurdish-referendum/ |

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan threatened a military intervention in Iraq in response to the Iraqi Kurdish region’s referendum on independence from Baghdad.
Erdogan, speaking at a conference in the Turkish capital of Ankara as Iraqi Kurds voted in their region on Monday, said that Kurdish independence was unacceptable to his country and that this was a “matter of survival.”
He pointed to Turkish military exercises currently taking place on Turkey’s border with the Iraqi Kurdish region.
Erdogan said: “Our military is not (at the border) for nothing.” He also added: “We could arrive suddenly one night.”
He also said Turkey would take political, economic as well as military measures against Iraqi Kurds’ steps toward independence and also suggested that Turkey could halt oil flows from a pipeline from northern Iraq.
Erdogan said: “Let’s see where — and through which channels — will they sell their oil. We have the valve. The moment we shut the valve, that’s the end of it.”
The Turkish leader said a border crossing with Iraq had been closed in one direction and that Turkey would shut it entirely.

The naive congregation even wait for him to do the beat..
Well we wey sabi sabi, because Obesere has been my only music since JSS 1. This happens more with drummers who play with talking drummers. They tend to sync and often times find every reason to introduce their syncopations during interludes. |

I felt that way when I started playing the keyboard. I definitely can't say the same now. Younger instrumentalists and choristers tend to start out with the mindset to wow someone or everyone in church. It changes with time. |

Family › Re: Deleted! by Sanchez01(m): 9:51am On Sep 24, 2017 |
sisisioge: Really? Well the bride price makes him the owner. Other components of a dowry such as yams , wines etc might have been brought too. Abi you think he probably brought just the money? All those yams, oil, wines, etc aren't components of a dowry? We Yoruba still collect Biko...the ones groom's family brought. I understand you perfectly and I understand the Yoruba culture like the back of my hands even though I'm not one. However, the yams, oil and so many other items brought forward by the groom and his family to his would-be-bride's family are items required by tradition during rites. When it comes to dowries, we refer to money paid by a bride, and, or her family to the groom. Example of this can be seen with Indians. It explains why I said we don't pay dowries here. |
Family › Re: Deleted! by Sanchez01(m): 7:32am On Sep 24, 2017 |
sisisioge: No...she's all yours now since you've paid the dowry. He paid the bride price and not dowry. I doubt if any ethnic group pay or receive dowries in Nigeria. We often take one for the other but they are not the same.  |

aieromon: When did an MTN staff double as a criminal investigator?
Whether he is a VAS engineer or an MTN staff or simply an unemployed tout (his post history shows this) looking for innocent souls to scam, do not contact him to resolve any criminal issues. He could if he has the portal to check up lines at his disposal. He would scam those he would scam, without a doubt, but that does not take away the fact that he is privy to a portal some people don't know existed. Whoever contacts him does so at his or her own risk. |
Phones › Re: See What Scammers Sent To Me Today by Sanchez01(m): 9:29am On Sep 23, 2017 |
aieromon: Read up his post history before making that assumption. The portal looks like an MTN CCR portal and he might just be a staff. It is always easier for people who work in the telecom sector to run a check on other people's lines but publishing them is a grave offence. OYERINDEJ, you'd want to do well to take those pictures down before you get into trouble. |

Both are English words and one is more popular the other. It is no surprise that the least popular corrects the most popular word. |
Politics › Re: Nigerians Divided Over Proscription Of IPOB by Sanchez01(m): 6:58pm On Sep 22, 2017 |
Mekus68: During the apartheid in South Africa, the ANC was branded a terrorist organisation and Nelson Mandela a terrorist. But to today, the ANC is the leading political party in South Africa, which has as well produced several presidents, including the current president; Jacob Zuma. So there's no cause for alarm. What is happening now would be one of our victory stories that we will tell our children, grand children & from generation to generation. The formation of the ANC was political from the outset. The IPOB claimed it is not tied to politics and has refused to partake in partisan politics, feeds and live off hate and propaganda. You cannot even compare the formation and the intelligentsias of the then ANC which was made up of black, educated middle class folks to that of the IPOB whose leader does not even have a roof he calls his and his members are bunch of uneducated, unemployed folks whose only weapon of resistance are sticks and stones coupled with caustic tongues. |

While I am displeased with the PK tussle with Cavani, Messi has done far worse than Neymar ever did. The thing is, the latter doesn't do his publicly. Neymar seems to be influenced by his father who is no doubt a bad influence on him. So long he plays at the top level every week, believe me, the world would look past his arrogance and reckon with him. |
