Foreign Affairs / Re: Donald Trump Complains As Result Tilt Towards Biden's Favour by scholes0(m): 5:35pm On Nov 04, 2020
codemaniacs:




elvictor comment is the reason why some Nigerians and some Africans support Trump... leisuretym comment below is the reason Nigerians don't want b:iden to win....

Trump's ignorance of Africa is what has helped reduce t:error attacks in Africa...

If a U:S president is not going to support Africa's development then that president needs to ignore Africa which is what O:bama should have done.... instead of helping turn African countries to war zones and refugee camps....

b:iden winning is bad for African countries.


Oga there is very minimal difference between democrats and republicans when it comes to the internationall policies of the USA.

Which countries did democrats 'destrroy' in Africa that republicans won't do same?

Has anything like the Arab spring which led to the eventual US interference in Libya happened under Trumps time in office?

Have you forgotten how bush invaded the Middle east under the pretence of looking for weapons of mass destruction which they had?

Always complaining always blaming everyone but himself.
Michigan and Wisconsin have flipped, Arizona and its 11 electoral college votes which he took in 2016 are safely in the Dems sack.

That is the end.

Nigerians religiously supporting Trump are some of the most ridiculous black people to ever exist.
Una no even get shame... if we were in the mid 19th century, Trump as a US lawmaker would vote against the abolition of slavery. As a mtatter of fact, if he could have his way blacks in the US wouldn't have been 'allowed' to vote in this election.

Anyways, bye bye Trump! undecided

Lagos state can't be turned into a FT (Federal Territory)

Maybe Eti osa and Lagos Island can follow, but definitely not the greater part (80%) of Lagos state which were all part of the defunct Western region before they were brought to become a part of Lagos state in 1967.

Culture / Re: Some Untold Facts About Bayelsa State. by scholes0(m): 11:49am On Oct 15, 2020
mosdii:
Bayelsa state is the only homogeneous Ijaw state in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria.

Bayelsa is the acronym of the then 3 local government areas in old Rivers State namely; Brass, Yenagoa and Sagbama (BALGA, YELGA & SALGA).
Present day Bayelsa, has 8 LGA's namely;
1. Kolokuma/Opokuma
2. Yenagoa
3. Southern ijaw
4. Sagbama
5. Ekeremor
6. Ogbia
7. Nembe
8. Brass

In the old Rivers State, Brass LGA comprised of Ogbia, Nembe & Brass respectively.
Yenagoa LGA comprised of Kolokuma/Opokuma, Yenagoa and Southern ijaw and
Sagbama LGA comprised of Sagbama and Ekeremor.

Bayelsa state is predominantly ijaw with other sub and ijaw dialects.

These ijaw dialects includes;
1. Nembe: This ijaw dialect is the second most spoken ijaw dialect in the state after the more conventional ijaw dialect.
It is spoken in two local government areas; Nembe and Brass who are similar to the kalabari people of Rivers State.

2. Ogbia: This dialect is the third most spoken ijaw dialect in the state. This dialect is synonymous with the Abua and Odual dialect in Rivers State.
The Ogbia, Abua and Odual people are said to be from the same roots.
The Ogbia dialect is spoken by people of Ogbia local government area.
Former President GEJ is from this area.

3. Epie-Atissa: This dialect is spoken by the people of Epie-Atissa in the state capital of Yenagoa.
They are said to be an offshoot of the Edoid descendants of Oguan.

4. Urobho: This dialect is spoken by the Ofoni people in Sagbama LGA of Bayelsa state.
They are synonymous to the Urobhos in Delta state.

5. Okordia: This dialect is spoken by the Okordia people in Yenagoa LGA.

6. Biseni: Spoken by the Biseni people in Yenagoa LGA.

7. Zarama: Spoken by the Zarama people in Yenagoa LGA.

The last three dialects are synonymous and they are known with the acronym OZB.

Your opening statement and your number 4 fact are contradictory... No?

Honestly, I really blame some of the Anioma people who doesn't understand the implications of allowing such insult by these guys to stand against them.

People are relying on myths and legends to claim being superior to another group of people that are totally different from them.

Of what benefit would associating with Benin offer to the Anioma people when they're even more populous, more educated, and more endowed in terms of human and natural resources than the said Bini, a minority group with nothing to offer?

Chaiiii
Gregyboy see your life? See how bini was totally and utterly disgraced! c’est dommage grin

Culture / Re: Yoruba Gbagyi Relation? by scholes0(m): 12:21am On Aug 29, 2020
NubaVertigo:


I'm curious though, also. Could there be any link with the fact that Nok art is found near their site and Esie (Yoruba sculptures) and other forms of Yoruba art look like Nok art? They also speak a language which falls under the Volta-Niger cluster -- "Gb" consonant and "kp" consonant

Note that they also see that head as sacred, but treat it moreso as such than the Yorubas do.

Just asking questions. (note: I think Nok is actually found in the Atyap section, but they live immediately close to Gbagyi)

Their reverence for the “head” might just be co-incidental with that of the Yoruba, Furthermore- there is no proof per say that the makers of the ancient Nok works of art were the direct ancestors of todays Gbagyis, and even if they were, I am sure there are other populations descended from the same stock as well.

Yes I am familiar with their language , it sounds very much like Nupe.

Gbagyis? Nope..

Yorubas don’t mention them in our history even when Nupe (Tapa) is mentioned severally and is very well known. There are even towns in Yorubaland founded by Nupes.

Gbagyis are more like the Nupes without a strong culture/history- and we don’t really know them.
