You might be right about your saying regarding those who call on God in their speeches. I've seen a lot in Nigeria. I call on God to appeal to your conscience to see if it can be resurrected.
Many people I know while in the north were murdered without any person jailed for it. My beloved Chemistry teacher and friend, Mr Ojebisi and his elder brother where killed in their own house by jihadists. The same thing was done to my friends dad- a professional tailor very popular in our area. Before me people were slaughtered like rams and this was before this boko haram's era. No one was punished for it. I have seen blood shed many times and I'm not moved anymore. I'm a Christian and while I was younger asked a question about how to respond to the constant death brought against peaceful Christians in our area. I was told to pray and forgive our oppressors and persecutors. It destruction continued as churches were burnt down businesses razed down and lives cut short. All the prayers and fasting didn't stop the attacks and the government cared less. People who were well to do later became liabilities to others and poverty increased. I couldn't relate with how only prayers could stop the attacks. The best testimonies were of how families survived alive having lost their entire properties. In some occasions some after losing some family members. It was horror. I read a book about Sudan(that was before the country was divided) titled Faith under fire in Sudan. I discovered the entire Sudan was once Christian country but today the Christians faced annihilation with the northern part already lost to the invading Arabs. We all know the Sudan story. Back to Nigeria. I knew we had to do something and to do it fast. However Nigeria's case happened to be very different and difficult. How do we go about it? Religiously or ethnically? It was difficult to categorize. I did stand with northern Christians to defend our territories but if we mention Biafra they get agitated. I asked my self why do they do this. The older ones among them- those who fought the war and are presently out of govt many times shake their heads in regret. A majority of them do tell me how foolish they were to have hated the wrong people. But some of their youth seem to still hate my people. They would insult my people but will run to us for help when the notorious marauders come calling. The confused ones among them are their politicians who will keep mute as their people are decimated while they will be most vocal on how they will spend their last blood so stop biafra. After analysing and extrapolating the situation, I came to a conclusion that my people better seek for a country for themselves and others in the old eastern region. If others too are tired of the evil in Nigeria let them throw their weight behind us and ask for a slot to join. This is my present position. God's willing it shall come. We have suffered enough.

Another thing.. Same thing.. You ended the whole comment with the same slogan. "God's willing it shall come. "

Always calling God and the use of Slogan is usually common.... Reminds me again of the same thing we just read about.. Slava Ukraine, Allahu Akbar, God willing, God's name..The same thing with Nazism back in the day in Germany.. They also had this same type of Slogan..

Can anyone now tell me the difference between the religion of Abraham ? Christianity and Islam or even tell me the difference between a religious war.. Be it jihad or Crusade at any time in history ??

You mentioned Jihad but you refuse to talk about Crusade... Isn't that double standard already ??

YEs, Double standard is in fact the Neocons Tradition.. The AngloZionist EMpire..

After reading everything else, i do agree with you but there is something you are missing here.. I think you need to read this lines how religion is being used as pretext or tool for Division or Succession..

https://www.nairaland.com/2471001/african-accepts-foreign-religion-christianity See pts bellow
"Pretext or Tool for Division or Succession
Religion is also a way or tool to gathering more allies or otherwise potential puppets serving the interest of their host first instead of that of the National interest or the direct interest of the masses. For this reason any African man/woman who accepts foreign religion either Christianity or Islam is a traitor to his or her motherland. That kind of person has already betrayed his or her people. On one condition that he or she puts the host of this foreign religion first before his or her own country. This kind of follower of foreign can be refereed to as a sold out.

Now, the question is, would you rather promote the religion of the land or promote a foreign religion in one's Motherland ?? This is part of the Issue in Africa. Lost or misplaced priorities. Cuba and some other south American countries still practice Ifa and one would never see any of them make such a backward film portraying any religion as good or bad."

You also speak about burning of churches...What about Burning of Shrines being done by both Islam and Christianity.
See photo here..

My last point
Make no mistake, religion is a civilization, either Ifa, Odinani, Islam, Christianity. All share one thing in common and this is fear of thinking twice before doing bad thing to fellow human or even animals in other religions. So what is more civilized in the Western part of Nigeria that is not in the SE or Northern Part.. This is pure religious tolerance and it made it difficult for any outside forces or proxies to hide under this pretext in carrying out it's geo-political agenda..

We know it has never been about religion but always hiding under the pretext of religous conflict or intolerance to carrying out Geo-polication ambition and we saw that happened in Chechynia for example. A Russian Islamic republic when the Terrorist armed an U.S backed organization tried to take chechynia (Islamic republic) away from Russia.

Yes, Russian won that proxy war and Chechynia remains an Islamic republic living together in peace with Orthodox Christians.. Now that is civilization.. The best Civilization in the world.

The one that does not conform to the same western imposition of what a civilized world should be. They believe it should be based strictly on religious principles but not that of tolerance in other words Political correctness.. Meaning what they believe should be the cultur and tradition of an Enclave or by which an enclave is ruled.

The same terrorist were terrorizing the Russian orthodox then but they understood what's happening.
Now see how one of those that should be against such move, a Christian back world, the neocons sponsoring CNN,CIA,NATO and even the Christian world generally..

This is how the Neocons responded to it bellow....Sub-humans.. No difference between these CNN guys in the video bellow and Boko haram or even those burning churches, shrines or mosque..


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=As4xfR3c9sM

Now you will understand we are dealing with the same Enemy and it does not matter your religion.. What matters to this neocons are their control and interest first.. In other words geo-political ambition...

DO YOU WANT TO EXPERIENCE A CIVIL WAR? IT ISN'T AS IT SEEMS.


IF ANYTHING HAPPEN TO THAT DUDE, NIGERIA WILL DIVIDE BY WAR. NOT AS IF HE'S TOO PRECIOUS OR SPECIAL TO THE NDIGBOS, BUT THIS COULD IGNITE A WAR THAT WILL AFFECT A LOT OF PEOPLE.


REMEMBER THAT, SOMETIMES AGO, THE IJAW PEOPLE ALSO CAME UP WITH A TREATY OVER THEIR AMALGAMATION SIGNED YEARS BACK BY OUR COLONIAL MASTERS. IF BY ANY MEANS THIS CIVIL WAR START NOW, MANY STATES WILL FIGHT THEIR INDEPENDENCE. WHICH WILL GIVE AMERICA MORE OPPORTUNITY TO STEP IN AND STEALL OUR NATURAL RESOURCES AS WELL AS RENDERING NIGERIA USELESS.


IN AS MUCH AS I DON'T SUPPORT THIS BIAFRA WAR OR INDEPENCE, I KNOW ALSO THAT EVERY INDEPENCE IS GAIN THROUGH WAR! BUT IF BUHARI IS REALLY A GOOD PRESIDENT, HE'LL HANDLE THIS CASE WITH MATURITY AND LEADERSHIP QUALITIES. THIS IS HOW IT'LL START, TILL IT'LL RESULT TO A BIG ONE.

NNAMDI KANU WILLINGLY GAVE HIMSELF UP. AND THE FG JUMBED ON IT. HOW FOOLISH OF THE FG, DSS AND EFCC?

lol... Nnamdi... hahahahahaha...lol.. Who know am self ? Same Boko haram replay.... A new down. New front.. Two front wars.. I said this before nah and it will happen.. Boko haram front and Biafra front..

To win, it will be very simple self.... The only game changer the Anglozionist empire can never add to it is another FRont from SW.. like OPC front... They lost already.. Watch nah... Like you have in Syria.. Different groups.. DEAsh,ISIL,Al-nursral,....

[b]IPOB Nnamdi Kanu’s arrest – Nigeria’s Biggest Mistake
By amoskalu | Posted 4 hours ago 2K

BACKGROUND
The Eastern part of Nigeria is a made of predominantly Christian population whose way of life is different from their Northern Counterpart that are predominantly Muslims. These two groups of people existed on their own without the other part for thousands of years before the coming of the white men. There were amalgamated in 1914 by the then Governor of the Colonized Niger Area – Lord Frederick Luggard for the purpose of convenience of governance of the area. The amalgamation of the North and the South of the Niger-Area came into force and it was Flora Shaw that gave it the name Nigeria, coined from the word – NIGER + AREA.

After the flag independence of Nigeria in 1960, the crop of leaders that took over from the colonial masters in their effort to gain control of the Nation through undue influence gradually planted the seed of nepotism, hatred, and ethnic division among the worst of all, corruption that has continued to cripple Nigeria to date.

Over time, the notion that the Ibos were domineering people gradually degenerated into hatred that caused the massacre of the Easterners in the North in an effort to curb their presumed influence and abilities as they were the most educated and versatile of the people of Nigeria. The unending massacre resulting from greed and nepotism caused the then Governor of Eastern Nigeria – Cornel Odumegwu Ojukwu to declare a Republic of Biafra in 1967. The declaration brought a civil war when the Nigeria government under Gen.Yakubu Gowan tried to force the Biafrans back into Nigeria, The war lasted for 3years from 1967 to 1970 before the Biafrans surrendered as a result of starvation ochestrated by against Biafrans though total blocked of every rout that food may be brought into Biafra land. Over 1.5million children and women perished as a result of using hunger as a weapon of warfare for the first time in the world, introduced by Pa Awolowo, the first Nigerian Minister of finance and economy under a military head of state.

MANY YEARS LATER
In order to appeal to the ego of the proud Biafrans, the war was declared no victor and no vanquished, but the actions that followed proved otherwise. The Biafrans to date lost all their property all over Nigeria, even in their homelands and they were subjected to undue treatment of receiving 20pound in exchange of any amount you must have saved in the bank before the war. It forced them to resign to fate and their only way out became to join one trade or the other and willing out their children as servants. But over the years, they succeeded and became the most popular businessmen in Nigeria.

TODAY
As a result of the flight from Biafra land occasioned by lack of work and conducive livelihood on Biafra lands as a result of government policies which include making it impossible for Biafrans to run any company that can employ up to 100 workers, impossible to import their goods through their closest seaport some 10kilometers to them and instead have to import through Lagos about 800kilomiters away and paying through en-rout to the numerous Nigeria uniformed officials back to their land.
These numerous ill treatment caused the rise of some opposition to Nigeria from this area. The first of its kind was from the Niger Delta area by Ken Saro Wiwa and his kinsmen from Ogoni, but they were all hanged by the Nigerian government under IBB, Then the Niger Delta boys went militancy to protest the oil spillage that was destroying their lands to date and the government of late Yaradua got wise and gave them amnesty. Other such groups are THE MEND, MASSOB and presently IPOB that is controlled by Nnamdi Kanu.

While the other groups seem to have come only to get money from the federal government, the IPOB has proved to be on a more serious mission to secede from Nigeria. Using Radio Broadcast and very advanced technology to reach the world without control from Nigeria, IPOB has managed to cause a serious nightmare to the Nigerian government.

Nigerian government seriously tried but failed to block the signal of the radio playing into Nigeria, mostly the Eastern part of Nigeria, they resorted to the only method associated with “Black People” force.

NNADI KANU Sets a trap, Nigeria falls headlong into it.
“How could Nigerian Government be so insensitive to fail to decode that Nnamdi Kanu intentionally came down from United Kingdom to be arrested and they played into the trick? He is an educated man who calculates all his moves. Nigeria will never remain the same again after this arrest because this arrest has given more publicity to the Biafran cause than the Biafrans and even their leader Nnamdi Kanu would have dreamed. Now that Amnesty International has talked about it, New York Times and all the News Papers in Nigeria have carried it from the arrest to the bail. I think that is all Nnamdi Kanu needed to go to the next level of the struggles.

Hahhahaha interesting. How many did GEJ killed in Lagos during fuel subsidy before everyone went back to their senses ?? lol.. If you are living in 20th century, please wake up.. PLS pls.. Nigeria Runs like U.S.A when it comes to stuffs like this... Ok.. Let wait and see nah.. As it gains momentum..

Plus this is even an insult to the real Igbos. An insult to their intelligence.

Everything is now making sense! America Sending troops to Cameroon & Nnamdi's recent Visit to Nigeria
There has been speculation that the troops america is sending to Cameroon in helping the fight against "Terrorist" may not actually be what it was reported to be. According to a political scientist, this may be to monitor the sending in of proxies to Nigeria via Cameroon boarder.

It was reported that the propaganda leader of Pirated Biafra Radio visited Nigeria recently and he was immediately arrested. However, he has been released on bail, things may not work as planned here because this is a predetermined move used in so many colour revolutions abroad and by the AngloZionist Empire ( Mainly the Neocons) to start an uprising.

As per the political Scientist Bologun Adesina, " Those backing Nnamdi are western plutocrats, foreign forces. e.g George Soros (AngloZionist Revolution Planners). They already have Plan A,B,C and D in place and also their proxy terrorist forces. I'm suspecting Cameroon will be used to ship in these recruiters, proxies or invaders. And don't be surprised if some of them will be runing from Syria/Libya to Nigeria since most of the ISIL terrorist group are now cutting their bears to run from Russian Air Strikes"

"This group of people are being used by the CIA around the world, and are ready to do the job at the highest bidder or money being thrown at them. Now you have Wahhabi terrorist organization affiliate Boko haram and another up-coming one Biafra. So you are about to see the highest bid winner join one of the two."

He later went on to say, the move by the DSS to release him was a very smart move and to keep a close eye on his crew and particularly the border between Cameroon and Nigeria.

Now adding up the two events that took place recently via the same Cameron and the visit of the Propaganda armed pirate, Nnamdi. One could easy conclude there is something deadly about to happen and confirming from public comment by some of the trolls spreading the propaganda, it may happen as soon as possible.

I am guessing one Igbo boy lol..

The federal government has called for more support from Ukraine in the fight against the Boko Haram insurgency. Vice President Yemi Osinbajo made the request at the Presidential Villa in Abuja yesterday while receiving Ukrainian Ambassdor, Mr. Valerii Aleksandruk.

Expressing Nigeria’s gratitude to Ukraine for its support in the area of security, especially in the fight against insurgency, Osinbajo said: “We hope for more cooperation until we pull down the evil of terrorism.”

The vice president stated that Nigeria would soon expand her diplomatic relationship with Ukraine to explore new areas of mutual benefits to both countries. Osinbajo said aside from their current education agreement, both nations would soon sign bilateral agreements in agriculture and steel sectors. He said Nigeria looked forward to the setting up Bi-National Commission that would deal with the various issues and expand relationship between both countries.

Earlier, Aleksandruk had said there were a number of bilateral agreements waiting to be signed by Nigeria and Ukraine to deepen their bilateral relations.

The envoy, who had also hinted that there were about 5,000 Nigerian students in Ukraine, thanked Nigeria for supporting his country at the United Nations Security Council.

Daily Trust.

For those of you that ask why not quickly embrace Russia for help as to asking Ukraine for help ?
See how a political scientist, publisher and a political public commentator answered the question bellow.

http://ooduarere.com/politics/must-read-to-some-people-bashing-osinbajo-move-to-ukraine-but-not-russia-for-arms/

"Russia under Putin is a game changer always full of surprises and act at the right time. Many of you may not know that a direct move to ask or pivot to Russia will automatically mean a regime change in Nigeria immediately or as quickly as possible or even death.

"We all saw what happened when the president of Russia visited Nigeria back in the day. Though I have nothing to back this hypothesis but facts remain late President Ya'radua started having chronic issues and to silent him finally he went to Saudi Arabia for check up the 2nd time. This is like going to the same enemy zone since Saudi Arabia is now a confirmed ( or has been) permanent Puppet to the AngloZionist Empire. In other words late President Ya'radua died in Saudi Arabia.

I am very sure and hope President Buhari will never make this type of mistake.

Military challenges is absolutely one of the challenges the Ukrainian puppet government feels it's facing. And here the Ukraine has asked Obama for Military supply. " The problem is not military supply of arms but the technical know how to use those arms and even NATO cannot win the SE war in Ukraine as we speak."

"As we speak there is no fly zone(not officially) declared in the Donbass. Meaning nothing can fly in the airspace . This was even confirmed when [b]Tochka U ballistic [/b]missile fired by Ukrainian puppet government in Kiev backed by NATO mercenaries fired it into a well populated Donbass region was shot down by the NovoRussia forces in SE.

"The NATO and Obama know 110% that they can't win the war in S.E by supplying more arms to the Ukrainian government. They even claim some of the arms may get into the wrong hands in the SE. That was a lie, many of the arms were taken from them when their forces were encircled recently that lead to Minks 2 agreement."

And some of the arms are supplied by Russia (this I'm also sure but Russia denies it)
"The puppet in Kiev now wants more Arms from the west. To do what ? To fight one on one. They lost in the Debaltseve encirclement in dobass- lugansk area of Ukraine. A ugly defeat that revealed the polish mercenaries there.

Balogun Adesina -

Allow me to add the following lines!

NATO (and allies) rely completely on air superiority, while Russia does not. Arming terrorists with MANPADS (McCain and Hilary Clinton Pushing for this in Syria.. The same strategy they thought they used in sending the Soviet packing back in the day) will certainly backfire, and affect NATO the most.

I should think the response from Russia to such actions by NATO (or its allies) would be fairly predictable in Syria. Russia may arm Syria, Yemen, and the Kurds with advanced anti-air defense too in order to maintain the status quo. All of the middle east then becomes a no-fly zone for everyone forever.

Russia can give Syria ground superiority, while supporting offensives from the sea with cruise missile strikes. And if Russia really wants to get nasty, it can arm Syria and Iran with anti-ship missiles--that we now know have a 1500+ km range.

Once everyone has anti-air defense, you have a Ukrainian scenario, where a small heavily armed conclave can't ever be defeated. Without air superiority Saudi will lose in Yemen, Turkey will lose against the Kurds, and the middle east will be off limits to NATO.
So yeah. Go head NATO, do something else crazy in Syria.

22yr old Nigerian understudy Matthew Ajibade, (In pic bellow) passed on in police custody after he was kicked and beaten by police amid a booking procedure where he was said to be contentious and fought back.. Also, a week ago, amid a case's trial, stunning footage taken inside the Georgia jail facility where Matthew was left alone after being kicked and punched in the head amid the battle with cop. He was allowed to sit alone for 90 minutes after the violence, and thereafter he was discovered dead. See the video bellow.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ub6aQw7LNKw


Ajibade was arrested on domestic violence charges on New Years day 2015 when the incident happened. In the video above, Ajibade could be seen arguing with the police officers who call for back off. One officer tried to tackle him to the ground and Ajibade resisted. As she tried to taser him, Ajibade grabbed the taser and that was when another officer attacked him. The officer is seen in the video kicking the back of Ajibade's head at which point he stopped resisting. The police officer then used the taser on the Nigerian student and then handcuffed him. He was left there for an hour and a half and when they went back to check on him, he was found dead.

The three former jail employees, who battled with him are now in trial charged over his death. They were charged for policy and procedure violations that prosecutors say contributed to Ajibade's death.

Do you know that one Akinfenwa Sunday Muyiwa, a member of group Ifa University (also a Nairalander), asks: “Of what use is this so called ‘culture’ and ‘tradition’, to a modern man, who lives and dreams technology? Can the believe in them bring any technological innovation and orientation, which can make us surpass the white people, who have done away with theirs?”
Could some people please address his question, PLEASE?

1st Answer
Adébóyè Adégbénró: Before you could have full understanding of anything, you have to be inside of it, not trying to wrap your head around it. There and then would you have full understanding- and it does not stop there. Just like inventions and new innovations in science and what have you, ‘culture’ and ‘tradition’ are not stagnant but have progressions that are still connected to the original source. The mistakes our folks make is eliminating the roots to forge a new move, new light or a new beginning. We all know the result of the river that forgot its roots. My ten cents.

2nd Answer
Shimone Canty: If he knew where the computer came from, he wouldn’t say such things. I will help him a lil… the code of the computer, which you see as color, shapes, sizes, etc on your computer screen is really just ones and zeros. This advanced system came from the Holy Odu printing of unlocking the universe. Yes, when we mark Odu today we use ones and zeros, just as our ancestors did. So, where would the world be today without computers? Where would the world be today without Ifa? We have always surpassed the so called white people, you just need to look from a different angle, the God angle.

3rd Answer (The Best Answer)
Sue Kucklick Arencibia: Ifá is a binary system. The first computers known to mankind are the divination systems. But instead of transmitting stale data, they connect us to the world of spirit and immensities of understanding.

4th Answer:
Fajemirokun Chris: Why is it that you never see any traditionalist in any key post? It is simply because we have gone astray. We need to make ammendments. Ki a ma tan ara wa je, ni didarulko awon Irunmolw ni gbogbo igba. We are all hipocrites!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

5th Answer
Mr. Akinfenwa Sunday Muyiwa talked from the viewpoint of those badly affected and brainwashed by hundred years of the colonialists deliberate system of mental slavery. Emancipated people like Prof. Moyo Okediji now easily consult Ifa on the laptop! Emancipate yourself, fully get at breast with our asa ati orisa, then you’ll have an edge.

6th Asnwer: 2nd Best Answer
Balogun Adesina to Akinfenwa Sunday Muyiwa
You seem to lack the knowledge of how things work. First of all Cultural religion or traditional religion is a civilization so as all kinds of religion is. It’s a backlink to identify with a source of creation in other words your ancestors.
What you don’t get is, there has been physiological attack of this precious identity since the fall of Oyo Empire. Even before then, there were religious viruses attack mainly from the west and east (other religions and mostly Christianity and Islam) against the traditional religion or our way of life.
This has always been my argument. When you subjugate an enclave by taking away their voices(Via all sorts of religious propaganda against their traditional invisible religions), you automatically kill their future and what else could come of a subjugated environment ? If anything good, won’t you attack it the same way you did even to their civilization ?

Let me give you a good example here.. Even in the example bellow.. The man found CTE, despite the fact that he identified with the Christians (non believer of Ifa) he was still attacked by the NLF oligarchs. This is the typical example of the attack against the traditional religion of Ifa and any invention or what so ever that comes out of it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOKvhcBelwQ
Can you now imagine how the picture would look like if the CTE man in the above video was a believer of Traditional religion ?

Conclusion.. Virtually everything in life is like a war zone. Even human beings are in war with millions of viruses. So to defend our civilization so future people like the CTE guy above can feel proud of identifying with his traditional religion/Ifa destiny. We have got to continue fighting the information war against our traditional religion or identity.
Add yours in the comment box bellow.

Na wah for butter children from Lagos and other urban places. Young boy is shown a kerosene lantern for his education and wants to put petrol in it.

No one knows what really happened but everyone helped in to make the smoke stop but everyone tried the best they could. Many people treasure material things in their lives, however the value of a thing could be effectively seen when we lose the thing, checkout this current man’s reaction to losing his Land Rover to fire.

If the man in the video that cried (at mark 1:00) had insured the SUV, his insurance company would replace him with another car (has this ever happened in Nigeria NL ?) or fund him to buy another one. I feel for the guy in the second video. I have a feeling there are viable insurance companies in Nigeria only that people take such for granted. You may also argue that Nigerians don't trust insurance companies because they feel they may be cheated at some point. Imagine a scenario, you are paying every month, about 20,000 Naira for 5 years and nothing happened after the 5th year. How would you feel and do you think it's worth it to insure your car ?

In some countries, a portion of the insurance monthly fee is given back to the owner via filling for a tax refund (on condition that the person makes less income after a year), is this possible in Nigeria ?

A New Year for Adebayo Ola-Smith, Globacom (glo) Manager’s Engineered Suicide, Perpetrators Still At large!

It’s been three years since Mr. Adebayo Ola-Smith, Globacom (glo) Area Manager West 1, was alleged and / or reported by strangers/external Parties to have mysteriously committed suicide as shaped in the public by the masterminds surrounding his untimely death. One of our reporters again got across to Adebayo’s well-wishers to find out if there has been any justice since the Engineered Suicide was reported.
According to one of the siblings of the deceased, “it would appear that the incident was reported on Friday by external Parties and Adebayo Ola-Smith did not commit suicide. The date our beloved Adebayo Ola-Smith was last seen in Globacom (glo) at challenge, Ibadan was 31st August, 2012 during lunch time. It would seem that having received a mobile phone call, he left Globacom (glo) at Challenge, Ibadan. However, he did not return to the office as he had pledged. His Globacom (glo) colleagues and the Nigerian Police Force retrieved his dead body in his home in Ibadan and transferred him to the mortuary. Adebayo was buried without any Post Mortem / autopsy in Ibadan”.

The Nigerian Police Force failed and / or refused to ascertain the cause of death. Also, “University College Hospital (UCH) Ibadan exploited the situation by demanding a fee of N500,000.00 to carry out an autopsy / Post Mortem only because it was Globacom (glo) that brought Adebayo’s corpse to the mortuary. Globacom (glo) failed and / or refused to pay the fee despite its involvement and the fact that it was capable of footing the cost of establishing the cause of death. The option was open for Globalcom (glo) to recoup the post mortem cost from the pay out of the leftover of Mr. Adebayo Ola-Smith’s entitlements (comprising several multiples of N500,000.00) many months later to his next of kin however common sense failed to prevail in the company while the company’s treachery persisted”.


“It is an end of era for me. His death has since left a sudden emptiness that is difficult to explain,” one of the deceased sibling told Ooduarere.
“We are not happy as he died an unnatural death. Adebayo killing was not right for him, he was alive as anyone else and used to hang out with us, may his gentle soul rest in perfect peace and hopefully justice will be served one day however long it takes” said one of his well-wishers.
It was reported that, at the crime scene, documentation was found that identified a Globacom (glo) senior Management staff by name Mr. Lawrence Okpako as a principal actor and / or perpetrator of Mr. Adebayo Ola-Smith’s untimely death. Mr. Adebayo Ola-Smith was survived by his wife; 3 sons; 7 siblings (6 brothers, 1 sister); and 4 half-brothers, several cousins, aunties and uncles.

May the masterminds (including their generations) and executors, of Mr. Adebayo Ola-Smith’s untimely death never know peace, safety, security, good health, long life, prosperity, wealth, guidance et al till they rot away on Earth and burn forever beyond Earth till they all become extinct, Ase/Amin

I was just minding my Business, checking through facebook friends' wall and I came across a post like this. I need advice on whether to delete such a friend from my facebook list or keep him. See the post bellow and lets hear what you think about this kind of Facebook friends.

He claims to be educated and lives in the UK.

"Mr. Buhari has approved the following appointments:
1. Engr. Babachir David Lawal, a Hausa/Fulani, from Adamawa is now the Secretary to the Government of the Federation.
2. Alhaji Abba Kyari, a Hausa/Fulani is now the Chief of Staff to Mr Buhari.
3. Col. Hameed Ibrahim Ali (rtd.), a Hausa/Fulani is now the Comptroller-General, Nigerian Customs Service.
4. Mr. Kure Martin Abeshi, from Nasarawa is now the Comptroller-General, Nigerian Immigration Service.
5. Senator Ita S.J. Enang - SSA to the President on National Assembly Matters (Senate)
6. Hon. Suleiman A. Kawu, a Hausa/Fulani is now the SSA to the President on National Assembly Matters (House of Representatives).
The appointments are with effect from today, August 27, 2015.

Please note that the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), now headed by a Gambari in the person of Col. Hameed Ibrahim, collects Import Duties. Yearly, the NCS generates on the average, N2 trillion. According to the Nigerian Bureau of Statistic, 95% of the NCS revenue comes from the Yoruba South-West region (including the Itshekiri area). South-South region (excluding the Itshekiri area), contributes the remaining 5% of the NCS revenue.

There is no substantial contribution to the Nigeria Custom Service earnings from the South-East, North-Central, North-West and North-East. Nevertheless, in terms of revenue sharing, the three regions of the North combined together, get the lion's share from the Nigeria Customs Service earning and have always produced the Comptroller-General of Customs Service.

The activities of the Custom mainly centered around Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Ondo, Delta, and Rivers states. Yet, only Gambari can be the Comptroller-General. Yoruba are slaves, but do not really know they are slaves."

What do you think, should I delete him or keep this type of friend on my list ?


He gets load of reactions like there from his followers on FB

alonzoiv:
To even think that they were married before and they both are educated. Educated people consulting shrines operated by illiterates. What a shame.

?? Meaning ?? Some people don't know the meaning of illiterate and they use this word as if they are really educated. When you use the word illiterate, it simple means you can't read and write.

Now there is another version of it, computer literate for example means you know some aspect of computer or how to operate it or write programs. The list goes on. If you can read and write Yoruba language or even Arabic Language. You cannot be considered as an illiterate okay.

Going to shrine makes super sense. I did not read the article because it's too long but your comment is really alarming. Plus Education is not until you go to school read and write or pass. Education is having knowledge of what's around you and how to relate to them. Lets stop being one way traffic.

E.g, A tailor that went to a tailoring workshop or school to have knowledge of how to sew is educated in that aspect by the time he or she is one with it..
The same goes for a Mechanic.. The list goes on..

hertz9te:
if you are not in church right now.......what's your best excuse?

I went to shrine instead and also went to Ifa chief priest(Babalawo)... The best place to go anytime to seek guidance into the future. May Ifa show all of you the way.

Ase!!

missKiffy:
Please I would like to know if it's appropriate to add one's primary school education in a cv

U never ready plenty abi..You wan fill up CV space.. lol..
I think it's ok but in most cases not required..

This is another religious marketing of Christianity against traditional religion of Yoruba people. Either fiction or Non Fiction, films like these should be abolished in the 21st century

No Yoruba traditional film will ever attack any religion via movies like this. This is pure propaganda against the culture of the Yoruba people. Beware !

Oduduwa met people in ile ife hence he was not the origin of yorubas.

In other words there are some yorubas that are not from oduduwa.

Oduduwa was an hero that was how he became regarded as the father of all.

In today world yorubas are regarded as children of oduduwa.

Oduduwa -WHose hero ?Who did he fight back then ??You watch too much Nollywood films and Propaganda..

Oduduwa was an intruder that traveled from Medinah or mecca to ile ife. If you check around the world today.. This is still happening.. You hear of ISIL coming from middle east to fight in Nigeria.. Back then it was under the same pretext. When the Oduduwa won the war why he did not return to where he came from ? (Oba sweet am right and Oranmiyan was just looking at him right)

You need to understand the world's geopolitical game to really understand what happened back in the day.. And this is what USA is doing in Europe as we speak.. Under the pretext of protecting EU against Russia. They create artificial enemy with Russia just to justify massive military spending, NATO expansion massive propaganda to mention a few.

The same thing was downplayed in any country US loss control over. It will immediately support one side against that country. E.g Failed Vietnam war.
A successful North and south Korean war. Supporting Taiwan against China after Communist Chinese won the civil war.. Breaking of Yuguslavia that was bombed by NATO forces without UN resolution 15 years ago.

They learned this strategy from the British Empire. The past is surely repeating itself may be in a bit advance way (Covertly and overtly) .

1. AWO YORUBA THE LANGUAGE OF IFÁ GLOSSARY OF TERMS USED IN IFÁ DIVINATION Awo Fa’lokun Fatunmbi Egbe Iwa Pele

2. Introduction In order to understand the oral tradition of Ifa it is necessary to have some grasp of the language of Ifa. The rituals, invocations, incantations and recitations of traditional Yoruba religion are not expressed through conversational Yoruba. The language of Ifa is liturgical Yoruba (ofo ase), a language used among diviners to express transcendant ideas. Many of the words used in Ifa have a tonal resonance used to access the power of Spirit. Physics teaches the idea that all power in the universe is part of a sign wave which is the full spectrum of light. Every segment of the sign wave manifests as both color and pitch. The tonal quality of words used in liturgical Yoruba places the diviner in harmonic resonance with the tonal essence of a wide range of Spiritual Forces (Orisa). The remarkable quality of liturgical Yoruba is that the words used for invocation also carry meaning that reveals the inner essense of the Spiritual Force itself. For example, the word Obatala is used to describe the Force in Nature science calls white light. Ifa teaches that everything in the universe has some form of consciousness (ori). Saying the word Obatala places human consciousness in alighnment with the consciousness of white light. It does while telling us something about the quality of white light. The word Obatala is an eliysian of the phrase; O (Spirit) ba (power of expansion or male energy ie; Baba) ota (stone) ala (light). The word


3. Obatala in the context of Odu Ifa (Yoruba Scripture) means; the Spirit of the expansive quality of light that comes from the eternal stone of Creation (center point of the universe). Olatunde Sproye in his book Yoruba without Tears states there are one hundred and twenty-six combinations of vowels and consonants used as the basis for the Yoruba Language. ba be be bi bo bo bu da de de di do do du fa fe fe fi fo fo fu ga ge ge gi go go gu gba gbe gbe gbi gbo gbo gbu ha he he hi ho ho hu ja je je ji jo jo ju ka ke ke ki ko ko ku la le le li lo lo lu ma me me mi mo mo mo mu na ne ne ni no no nu pa pe pe pi po po pu ra re re ri ro ro ru sa se se si so so su ta te te ti to to tu wa we we wi wo wo wu ya ye ye yi yo yo yu All Yoruba words are a combination of these fundamental sounds. One of the rules of Yourba language construction is that portions of a word can be doubled for a change in emphasis, for example; ba (expansive power) baba (father) babagba or baba baba (grandfather). Doubling a word refers to its source or parent, for example Dada (Spirit of Vegitation) would be the parent of da (create). Repeating the word da (create) suggests recreation or the power of vegitation to continiously go throw the process of birth, growth, death and rebirth.


4. If we double each of the one hundred and twenty-six combinations used as the basis for Yoruba language we get two hundred and fifty-two fundamental linguistic buiding blocks. Ifa scripture is based on two hundred and fifty six fundamental principles. The first four principles represent the cycle of birth, life, death and rebirth. These four principles support the rest of Creation. The rest of Creation comes into being through the manifestation of two hundred and fifty two Forces in Nature. This suggests to me the foundation of Yoruba language has been linked to Odu Ifa from it’s inception. The first Yoruba English dictionaries were prepared by Christian missionaries who had no understanding or desire to learn the spiritual mysteries preserved in the Yoruba language. When Ifa and Orisa spread through the Diaspora it was influenced by non African religions concepts. I believe the best way to uncover the fundamental principles of Ifa as it was originally invisioned is through a study of the liturgical language.

When I wrote the book Iwa-pele I looked up the word Ifayabale in the Yoruba English dictionary in an effort to better understand a metaphysical concept. To me the word Ifayabale is an eliysian of Ifa (wisdom) iya (mother) baba (father) ile (earth), meaning; the wisdom of the fathers and mothers found on earth.

5. This glossary is a preliminary attempt to understand Ifa theology through an understanding of Yoruba language. The words were taken from Odu Ifa as it is recited in Ile Ife and most of the vocabulary reflects the dialect of that particular region. I am sure many of my definitions will change as my understanding of Ifa and Yoruba language grows. This should not be considered a definitive study. Hopefully it will serve as a point of departure for theological linquistic analysis. Bit by bit we eat the head of the rat. Ase o Awo Fa’lokun Fatunmbi

You really believe this? So you believe everything you read from blogs?
Can you even prove these?

"8. Ijebu is the only tribe in nigeria
that has its origin from bible days.

9. According to the Biblical
account;The Jebusites were a Canaanite tribe
who inhabited and built Jerusalem prior to its
conquest by King David


11. The Europeans Observers found them
more intelligent than theother groups in
Nigeria.

12. When Oduduwa was blind, Ijebu King(fifth
Awujale) was the one to provide remedy to
restore the sight.


14. Ijebu was the one to raise
agitation for emancipation from colonialism."

I think you are on indian hemp.. Or you meant the Ijebus were the first to sell out their traditional religion or beliefs to the European in other words saboteurs, puppets and proxies in Yoruba land..

Consultville:
1. According to Yoruba mythology it is believed that life and creation started first in Ile-Ife

2. It is widely believed and accepted that Ile-Ife is the cradle of the Yoruba race

3. In Yoruba mythology it is believed that all dead bodies have a ‘stop over’ in Ile-Ife before going to the world beyond, in some Yoruba burial rites, it's often recited that the dead person should not stay too long in Ile-Ife but proceed straight to the other world. It is also believed that till date there is a path in Ile-Ife that leads straight to the other world which is only accessible by the dead.

4. According to historians, the town's habitation can be traced as far back as 350 BCE The meaning of the word "ife" in the Yoruba language is "expansion;" "Ile-Ife" means in reference to the myth of origin "The House of Expansion"

5. Oduduwa (the widely accepted Father of the Yoruba race) lived in Ile-Ife and was the first Ooni of Ile-Ife

6. The Ooni is the paramount ruler of Ile-Ife and the Custodian of the Household of Oduduwa and by extension the custodian of Yoruba culture.

7. It is believed in Yoruba mythology that there are 401 gods/shrines scattered worldwide, 201 are in ILE-IFE

8. The only speaking deity/god of theses 401 deities is the Ooni of Ife

9. 46TH ADELEKAN (OLUBUSE I)- He was the first Ooni to travel outside Ile-Ife to Lagos in 1903 when he was invited by the then Governor General to settle the dispute involving Elepe of Epe. All Yoruba Kings including the Alaafin left their respective thrones as a mark of respect for the Ooni. They returned to their respective stools after Ooni returned to Ile-Ife from Lagos.

10. It was during ADESOJI ADEREMI reign UNIVERSITY OF IFE now OBAFEMI AWOLOWO UNIVERSITY was established in ILE-IFE

11. The next Ooni will the 51ST Ooni ever ruled ILE-IFE

12. Every King in Yoruba land traces his crown to ILE-IFE

13. ILE IFE is the site of OPA ORANMIYAN stands over five meters tall in Moopa area of the town within a fenced wall. Few symbolic trees are scattered around the staff with some dotted marks, which the custodian says are marks of bullet during the several wars fought by Oranmiyan. High chief Johnson Owoyemi, the Akogun of Ife is the current custodian of the Opa Oranmiyan – a staff that Oranmiyan, the grandson of Oduduwa used to take to war. The staff made of granite obelisk with iron stud stands within the Oranmiyan shrine manned by Chief Eredumi as chief priest who is the link between the dead and the living.

"Oduduwa (the widely accepted Father of the Yoruba race) lived in Ile-Ife and was the first Ooni of Ile-Ife "
This is wrong and Muslim brainwash. That one Oduduwa came from Mecca (If at all if Oduduwa came from Arab country, back in the day, he must be an intruder that came to sell his own form of brainwash that the Yoruba people relocated from Medinah to Nigeria.. Lies.. Propaganda against Yoruba tradition.


Naturally Obatala, Oba tata, Oba tagun tagun was the Irrunmole sent from above by Eledumare to create Ile ife. He was given Ifa as guidance and this is why they always call him Baba ifa. Your illustration of Oduduwa above is Yoruba Muslim brainwash but not that of Yoruba Traditional religion..


The descendant of Obatala became Ooni of Ife. First among equals in all the Yoruba Obas. Ooni of ife is the leader of all Yoruba people and Natually he's a small God any time he puts on his Ade ori, he automatically takes the position of Orisa.


Mind you, orisa is God and there is a say that let the Orisa lives in you.

Thank you and God bless you

As a matter of fact. It is not too late to cry. We can re-investigate our past and fix it. But we cannot continue living in denial, using a foreign identity.
