Is not true brother , as an Yoruba man, I believe we don't have a name for TELEPHONE, bcoz our language is incomplete

You dead wrong there bro. The Yoruba language so beautiful and well completed, every language on earth larks the name variant for the invention of other people it is either you adopt the original name for the invitation/word or you create one for it.

OCTAVO:
Yoruba - Ẹ̀rọ ìbánisòrò

for the Yoruba, here is the correct name of a phone be it mobile, land-line or fixed wireless. Yoruba don't have the name variant for varying phone gadget like some people are arguing. OCTAVO is quite right on point,

Èro means Machine

Ìbánisòrò means Conversation or Communicate.

Àgbéká or Àlágbèká means Mobile.

Hence Èro Àlágbèká means Mobile Machine which in turn can be any tool not being specific.

While Èro ìbánisòrò means a Communication or Conversation Machine (telephone of any kind). A mobile phone in turn would be 'Èro ìbánisòrò Àlágbèká.'

Divay22:
Before it was BB and now it's iPhone
She just disgraced herself and the phone wasn't even given to her..something she would have being able to afford few years from now and even go for the best..

You are just right fixed on point, the bb day was worse menacing mayhem such that the way ladies were destroying their life over bb made me hate the gadget till date (even if given one won't accept let alone appreciating it). nobi just to make call and browse? even the cheapest android can do such.

Everyone is just wanting to become an overnight online celebrity. Nairaland is now awashed with trash.

Anyone with this stock please let's know.

Feminism have been on for long in Nigeria, otherwise what is the meaning of "Iron lady"?

do you mean addressing a woman as an "iron lady" is feminism? I'm taken aback, just speechless.

Bar1941:

So addressing a woman as "iron lady" is about feminism? I can just believe this.

If this were to be in Nigeria we would blame it on Nigeria, poverty, iPod, afonja, bh or the ultimate Buhari. who do we blame this on? Trumpet or whom? cracking my brain can someone help with an answer?

For the past days, drama between Wizkid and his Babymama has been ongoing, he has been called out for not owning up to his duty. The recent was done by Shola, his first babymama who exposed Screenshots of chats she had with Wizkid concerning the welfare of their son.
However, a lady who thought she reasons well enough has taken to her twitter handle to address the issue, according to her tweets, she is a lady and fully supports the attitude of Wizkid towards his babymama, she advised Shola to go get a life and fend for her son.

Read full tweet:

I’m a woman and I support wizkid,
Women should learn to fend for their seeds , my father died four years back, even before he died my mother has been the one fending for my family , and boom � she was not in our lives the way a mother should but right now I’m grown and I truly understand why
So y’all can hate wizkid for treating her like a useless girl but he’s a man and the only connection binding them is Tife . Imagine something bad happens to shola today (God forbid) Tife will be with his daddy and not her family .
Since Shola is bothered about wizkid not being there for his son , why not grant him the role of a baby daddy so you can feel the emptiness from wiz side , at least you’ll be the one having a life like wizkid while he looks after your child
You love your child dearly but the circumstances surrounding your child requires you has his mother to put yourself aside and put your child first all because you’re a baby mama, be at peace with your soul
Get a life shola , give wizkid custody of his son so the boy can enjoy the benefits of having a star boy dad! You are his mother and will forever be ! Move your son out of 2million house to a better life, your son First
Don’t be jealous Zion is the one getting all the goodies , you as well should put out negativity, you’re a beautiful woman and you deserve happiness.

Little will I be surprised what the girl is putting up on the socio-media, a girl with a useless father like the naughty kid everyone is now debating over (if at all, what she said about her father is true), that left his wife and children at the mercy of God. this lady is bittered over her past so all she pray is for everyone to enjoy the same bitter pill her father has given them to swallow.
No matter what Sola deserves the best like any other one is. We all make one wrong turning or the other in life but there is always room for coming around and rewriting our steps.
She wanted love, she got hurt
She wanted love at a tender age, ended up with a child, all the price for that is lay her life for the child to be loved and she's willing to do that (God bless her), I love and appreciate her for this (the epitome of a true mother). if all her outburst is for the love of her child, then she deserves a standing ovation.
Why do we the MEN folk go to bed with a woman we no we don't love?
Why lay a woman you can't cohabit with?
Why chase after a woman not you taste?
so many questions like the 21 questions that would never get an answer.

And we are all, at the end of the day africans....

I quite agree with that.

theoldpretender:
Russia is partly in Europe and partly in Asia.

Infact, Russia is a very diverse and multi ethnic country. And it includes many ethnicites that are 'Asian' like...Tartars, Mongols, even Koreans!

(When the Soviet Union existed,it was even more diverse!....Kazakhs, Uzbeks, Kirgizs,etc...and many of those former nationalities live in Russia too).

Even many of those European Russians have a bit of Asian in their ancestry.....just read about the Mongol invasions centuries ago.

That Russia seems European is thanks to Peter the Great in the 18th century modernising the country.

you are wrong. just like saying the Yoruba speaking Benin. Republic, Igbo speaking Cameroonian or Hausa speaking Niger are Nigerians, it's a no. even their brakeaway splinters still claim Europe.

#TeamChrome.

Don't get it wrong you be came a #teamchrome as result of your addiction to google/android apps/devices. all time respect for Mozilla and it's Firefox crossboard and all platforms. give room for those that know to confirm it.

damiloladuke:
Why do all these Asian Police love snapping photos with Nigerian criminals caught in their country. Seems they need it for promotion.

Same with your Nigerian police. even here in Nigeria they will tell you fraud but you end up seeing guns lined up in front of fraudsters. we thought them to do this you think they don't watch your news?

Where is idiroko border ogun state?

I tire. If you never mention idiroko border for ogun state chei e nefa complete o. na dat one we rep o.

I can t just believe or imagine this article is not hitting the "frontpage." but check there you find so many dumb non-educating, uninformative, undeveloping post adorning the wall. Nairaland has become awashed.

Google Photos is not the most secured anyway. As long as your Google account can be hacked (even with dual authentication features), you are at the mercy of the hacktivists and your laxity online. I personally do not recommend Google Photos

which do you then recommend?

does kogi have the kind of money lagos have, or you want him to fail the way fashola failed as minister for power and works.

It is not about money but the willingness to use your little resource to achieve more.

The usual name callings, which is often an after effect of huge egos ruggedly battered will soon start making the rounds.



They won't have a shame joining the not too young to rule movement if they feel their thieving ambitions would be realised from there.



Shameless and lacking in integrity and morals...


Ghost-mode, dem no dey see we....their firo miro

Readily some of them has started claiming the #no_too_young_to_rule# mode in the name that the young ones sent them to contest order than sponsor one young one (satanic_saraki).

This news is a lie. nothing of this nature happened in Abeokuta, first there is no amusement park in Abeokuta, the two fun centre in Absolute is just meters away from each other. Beside I live not far from them.
