Pizza does not originate from here...so the local name remains Pizza , that is the name being called from where it originated from

Mylordmygod1:
Pizza as popular as it is today is not an english name, it is an italian name and pizza originated from italy.. But you simply call it pizza!

also, the likes of shawarma as popular as it is today is not an english name, but you simply call it shawarma!

why then call our own 'akara' beans cake instead of akara?

some people will be calling garri cassava flour, calling moi moi beans cake.. A nigeria girl will be ashamed to say she ate eba, because they have not gotten a sexy name to it.. What is wrong with you, why spoil thing for us?

do you think calling it beans cake will make a white man to know what u ate, what is beans cake self?

mctheeew..

Friends! The Undiluted Wrath of GOD that will Hit this Earth During the Great tribulation is testing the Mic on the Nations

Revelation 16:21
And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.

We have the opportunity right now to make our ways Right with JESUS Christ so as to be Qualified to Escape these things that will surely happen.

It is gonna be Hell on Earth once the saints are taken away.
There is no other way of Escape. It is JESUS Christ or Nothing. Time is Running out !

They that has Ears to Hear, Let them Hear.

You Sir are not wise... You talk as though you were born yesterday... If you were wise, you'd know this has been the precedent from the unfortunate Igbo led coup that led to the death Sarduana of Sokoto.. causing divides and animosity between the North and Igbos Down to the systematic genocide of the Igbos in the north leading down to the Civil war.. The Govt today and most agencies.. are led by Northerners.. and whatever they may be accusing Obi Cubana of, it's nothing we've not heard or seen from Arewa.

I'm not even Igbo, but make no mistake.. There's an inherent deeply ingrained animosity towards the Igbo man in this country, that much is obvious

[s]As long as Nigeria is concerned, NORTHERNERS can never be sidelined unless we want to die of hunger.
Rice, onion, pepper, beans and more that we are consuming are from the NORTH, even the cows that become our enemies now are mostly consume by SOUTHEAST and SOUTHWEST..
Most countries in the Western world has NOTHING but depend on AGRICULTURE.
Sweden has no natural resources except WOOD!


Looking at everything, it’s not all together a bad thing for the North to secede from Nigeria.

The North is the only region in Nigeria that practically have everything, yet its people suffer the most, with hope dashed, underproductive young @ & betrayal of the elites.

A Thread.

The North is the single largest supplier of raw materials in all Nigerian industries, from food through agriculture and cloths to shelter through cements and other building materials available in the Northern rocks, including iron ores and ceramics.
The North have Gold, Diamond, Tin, copper, gypsum, coal, magnesium, etc and even uranium all over the area.

A liter of groundnut/cotton oil is more expensive than a liter of oil, and it has long industrial chain value , from pharmaceuticals, detergents etc.

The cows that some few people condemn is over 20M in number in Nigeria, when properly harnessed and utilize, if a quarter of this number can produce a liter of milk a day, it means the North will have 5M liters of milk per day, each liter is N350, much more that a liter of fuel.

This notwithstanding the endless value chain of milk processing in different industries. A cow, from its feeds to all parts of its body including its dungs is a source of value, thus a cow is a wealth in all ramifications. All we need is to harness its value.

The north have river Niger, connecting all the way from Guinea mountains to, over Kebbi, Niger, Kogi and Deltas as it approaches the Ocean where it’s called the Niger-Delta. The North can still reach the ocean through Borgu to Benin republic down to Atlantic Ocean.

More students from the North studied in the Benin universities than the indigenes of Benin and more Northern traders travel to Cotonou than any other Nigerians, hence a trade pact will be easy for the North.
The North can dredge the River Niger through Benin and connect to the Atlantic Ocean or create a super highway through Niger Republic to Guinea down to Atlantic Ocean, thus the North have more ways to access the ocean than all other regions in Nigeria.

The North controls the flow of the river Niger. If the North chose to erect a barricade for the flow of river Niger to the east, all the rivers like Imo river, Onisha river, rivers in the delta with drinkable water and fresh fish will cease and the water flow will dry up.

The North have all the major forests in Nigeria, From Borgu Forests, to Felgore Forest, to Yankari Forest to Gashaka Forest to Sambisa Forest down, which have the longest stretch to Ethiopia, Uganda and Kenya through central Africa. Thus the North have it all.

The North have the river Benue, which flow through practically all states in the North eastern Nigeria to middle belt, flowing from Faro to Gerio to lake Doe & lake Chad, linking Cameroon & Chad to the east, Niger & Benin to the West, one of the longest River strings in Africa.

The North have rivers in almost all the states, from Dadin Kowa to Tiga, from Numan River to Yobe river from River Taraba to River Kaduna, all these makes a navigable and irrigatable river lines that can sustain agricultural activities through all seasons.

Out of the 78 million hectares of crop land in Nigeria, the North have 71 million, thus all food/cash crops can be produced from the North.

The North have global natural allies, from Middle East & Israel, including the United States and Britain, in addition to China and Russia.

I don’t know what the so-called secessionist guys are playing at, their hatred towards the Fulanis and everything North can be their greatest undoing once we pull out of the Union called Nigeria.

Even our religious differences in the North was further amplified by some fiery preachers from South who seek to explore these differences for some political gain. The North have lived for 100s of years with each other, what do you think will happen after independence? Peace!

The North have been a big brother for far too long, because we love Nigeria and we care for the silent majority of the people of the Niger Delta and the South West who love Nigeria equally and understands the value of the North.

So much energy is been wasted by the people of the North trying to make one Nigeria instead of thinking inward and start building its own institutions, industries, media, financial services, professionals etc. If the North chose to do this, the South will suffer most.

Now I tell you this, in the North, after every other reasonable analysis, 90% of the present problems of the North will fizzle away once the North becomes an independent unit.

No single person from the North is afraid of break up of Nigeria. None whatsoever.

And I am not sure too many Northerners are happy with the union either. But as general believers in patience, understanding that in the long run, thing may turn out well in spirit of solidarity with majority true Nigerians within the South, the North chose to stay in the Union.

Trust me, if, perhaps we have constitutional provisions for referendum, any region, especially Biafra, if they chose Nnamdi Kanu @MaziNnamdiKanu than a union of Nigeria, the North will most emphatically welcome the outcome. With a huge relief.

The North have its source of Energy, both artificial and natural through dams, coal, solar, winds and even nuclear, including oil and gas deposits in Gongola Basin, sokoto basin, Lake Chad Basin, Benue, Kogi and Niger States, the North have its source of food, lands for housing.

The North have its own educational system, healthcare systems, political systems, its foreign policy with natural allies etc, all its need is proper economic system away from the cheap and very scarce, poverty inducing oil.

The North have never served as slaves because it has been independent. Thus the north cannot start from the beginning nor the North to ever tolerate some war lord parading as messiahs, because the North knows governance, systems, policies and principles of tolerance and respect.

The North may choose to remain Nigerian, in the meantime! In the meantime![/s]

Nigerians always messing with crime scenes and DNA evidence! Evacuating without protective gears, no gloves, crude evacuation of body! I know these guys are just doing what they can to help, but this should have been done properly to preserve evidence and perpetrators' fingerprints. Naija police can't trace calls, track phones, no street CCTV cameras, no dashboard cams... police investigation in Nigeria is hardly evidence based! Nigeria is just too underdeveloped to be called a developing country!

When arewa Twitter was showing flamboyant wealth stole by their dad from Nigerian treasury nobody harassed them. But simply because a hardworking Igbo man with a known source of income spent lavishly on his mother's burial, all hell was let lose. Selective justice is no justice at all. This country is never one. One country, two laws

You don't need to go into an emotional breakdown. Someone just made a point up there about arewa Twitter. Let me add. Abba Kyari the fashion tailor's brother was known on SM for flaunting wealth and showing off expensive things. Why has he not been picked up by efcc? He even deleted all the pics when the spotlight was on his brother. Yet he's walking a free man. This does not have to do with Igbo alone. Even the Yoruba are not exempted. Naira Marley and Mompha are still being dragged by EFCC. Vigilance should be the price of freedom

Lagos is just an overrated urban jungle I swear, that city stinks to the core, from humans living there to infrastructure to houses to traffic to everything in fact, may their souls rest in peace, it is a tragedy, I feel for the families of the lost loved ones..
