I once read of how he married two sisters, so I became curious... I'm not active on Instagram, but I have a secret account there which I haven't posted anything on...

So I used the account to follow one of the sisters just to check how she's like being a sister wife to her own sister... It seemed like nothing much was happening in her life aside her being a seamstress... So I later unfollowed her.

yes he indeed married two sisters, I don't consider being a wife of the king as exciting, I don't even consider the monarchy as exciting enough, I don't know ,maybe the siblings see it as an achievement or something, but they make enough money 🤑 the monarchical structure in Africa provides money and influence to some extent for them.

DarkLover:
Hmm, Laycon is right. There are many of them on here who earnestly wish for this country to fail, you’d see them rejoicing on every bad news thread here. They never pray & work for this country to get better.

I wish Nigeria to fail so much, do you know what I did, I voted for credibility, for change, I voted based on competence, and character and I always criticize evil, I am so unpatriotic, while you wish Nigeria to succeed so much you voted for the very same criminals who made your nation the poverty capital of the world you are so patriotic that you supported your candidate based on selfish and ethnic reasons, you are so patriotic to Nigeria that you support the govt borrowing so much in the name of helping the poor just to turn around and use that same funds to buy exotic cars for themselves can't you see how patriotic you agbadorians are.

seunmsg:
Obidients are not normal people. They are people whose brains have been damaged by the traumatic loss of their gbajue candidate. They no longer reason normally.

let me get this straight in your 🧠 the very one who elects criminals into power are the patriotic ones, the ones who criticizes the the criminals being appointed into power are the unpatriotic ones, in your brain also you can appoint criminals as far as you wish them well they will perform, be your logic the reason Nigeria is facing it's present economic challenges is because Nigerians have not wished Nigeria well.

Samantha124:
Wait, is that Benin King from the Bini tribe?

yeah the very same, we have a strong tradition and history.

Samantha124:
Seems like I'll need to consult with Google...

😂😂😂 thank God for google, I was 99 percent sure you know nothing about the bini people.

Samantha124:
What's your native language? Who knows? I might know few phrases too...

I'm bini by tribe, I doubt you have heard the language before, this is not Mo ni fere 😂😂😂

Samantha124:
Well, that's South Africans for you, we love learning other languages.

How many languages can you speak?

just two English and my native language, I know you are multi lingual which is great.

Samantha124:
Most part of the song was also in Tswana, the artist's home language.

Why do you make it seem like it's a taboo to sing in a foreign language

nah I don't think it is a taboo to sing in a foreign language, i appreciate the art. I just think there is always a backstory or a reason why an artist would sing in a foreign language, most especially one that is not so popular, except you are a featured artist, or you are sampling a popular lyrics, like I can't imagine Nasty C rapping in Hausa or Urhobo when he is neither being featured by a Nigerian artist or sampling a song, I don't think it's wrong to sing in a foreign language, I am just curious, what the inspiration is, their thought process, how they come about the idea of this language out of thousands of other languages.

Samantha124:
Why was SA artist singing in Yoruba? It's not like the whole song was in Yoruba.

If I asked why was Burna boy singing in Zulu in the song Jerusalem, wouldn't I be accused of being xenophobic by Nigerians?

well burna boy was a featured artist, I get it that just a part of the song was in Yoruba, the major reason I asked, often times when artist sing in foreign language they always sample a very popular song from that language.

Samantha124:
Whaat?😲😲😲 You must be joking... Funny enough, as a child there was this song by an SA artist titled mo ni fere, we used to sing along it without knowing the meaning of mo ni fere... She would say mo ni fere and then say it in English, but we just didn't pay attention.

It was only when I was in my late teens that I asked this other Nigerian for the meaning of I love you in Yoruba and she said "mo ni fere".

why was an SA artist singining in Yoruba, for me personally I listen to Yoruba songs often times this songs are hardly subtitled in English, we just sing along anyway without understanding what it means, interesting enough the last song I googled the interpretation was jerusalema, I loved it so much that I became curious, because it sounds like she was telling a story, popular songs in Nigeria are always mixed in English and indegenous language so you get what the singer is talking about by just listening to the English part. Btw Mo ni fere truly means I love you just checked it right now, atleast I learnt something today.

Samantha124:
I also know that in Yoruba when you say "I love you", you say "mo ni fere"

Yorubas should correct me if I'm wrong...

I don't even know if that is correct in Yoruba, how did you learn this one?

Samantha124:
That's because you guys value English more than your indigenous languages.

maybe true.

lazkizz:
if it's real, then I will personally call this a miracle.. because his financially down and this will go a long way in solving some of our financial issues.

be very careful bro, alot of scam updates are out.

Samantha124:
If you pay close attention to our languages, you'll realize that most of them are related... Let me give an example of when we say "I love you" in some of our languages.

In Sepedi, we say "ke a go rata"
In Zulu we say "ngiyakuthanda"
In Xhosa we say "ndiyakuthanda"
In Tsonga we say "ndza ku randza"
In Swati we say "nyiyakutsandza"

They all rhyme and if you're the patient type, you'll learn them just fine by just associating with the people of those other tribes or by just listening to their music and watching their telenovelas or any TV programs... Because as you read the subtitles, you'll learn a thing or two... That's how I learned Zulu and a bit of Xhosa... I also used to think that Tsonga and Venda are difficult until I started listening to their music and learning their lyrics... So far my Tsonga is much better now and my Venda is still getting there...

this explains a lot, I can see the similarity in the language structure, we have sometime similar though,but I can hardly make a sentence out of any other indegenous language, only some words and phrases.

Samantha124:
We don't have a general traditional language, most of us understand each other's languages.

even in writing? How possible is that for someone to understand over a dozen language, I see it alot on the internet south Africans writing in traditional language, I always assume it is to be understood by only members of their tribe. So how does every south African understands each other's language, are the various languages taught in schools? Or you pick them up yourselves by association?

Samantha124:
Sepedi dance of course, why? Because I'm a Mopedi.

The Sotho dance isn't difficult too... As long as I can move my shoulders, then the rest is nothing.

And again with the Swati dance, all I need is a large kitchen knife and a shield, their dance steps don't seem difficult.

And with the Tsongas, I'll first need a xhibelani to test if I can shake it...

if you are mopedi, does SA have a general traditional language that all the other tribes understand? Because I noticed sometime ago in a different topic you communicated with another nairalander from south Africa with traditional writing.

DeLaRue:
She lacks experience.

However, as for your comment...what blowback?

Does the UN feed Nigeria or pay your electricity bill. So the UN is beyond accountable.

What power does the UN have over Nigeria.

Many Nigerians quake in their boots at the mention or sight of whites.

it is not about if the UN feeds us or not, or Nigerians quaking in their boots when they see white, the UN is a reputable agency to a large extent, their method of operations may different from what we have, now if the account of donations does not reflect, she ought to have met with the UN country director to seek clarification, then if they can't provide justified account of the funds then you can cry out, you know just how corrupt our system is, these funds might have been distributed through other means or agencies and ministries, like through the humanitarian ministry or even through NAPTIP

LegendHero:
Lol confused people.

Support Israel to continue to exterminate Palestinians and displace them from their home, then use another hand to give them aid so as to look like they are also pro-human right.

In this world, the only thing you need is to have “Power” as a country. You need that power or one day you will wake up to see that you are being swallowed up because NOTHING like human right.

I wish Palestinians the best but I also have Nigeria problem to think about. I guess their own destiny in this life is to be oppressed.

which problem does Nigeria have? I thought we now have tinubu the master strategist, the man who fought the Atlantic ocean.

karzyharsky:
Lagos Blu film city for $100m .... that's too much

not too much if it will be state of the art studio like those in Hollywood then it is not too much, a great initiative.

Honestly we deserve better than tinubu

AbuAeesha:
Please point of correction 🙏 its writen as "Qur'an"
The Israelites of today are trying to base their claims that the land is their ancestral home (this is not disputed) but in this modern era if everyone is to go back to their ancestral home you might have to leave where you occupy today.

Americans today will have to leave.
Australians today will have to leave.

Both Qur'an & Bible doesn't recommend the Jews and the Jews don't even believe in these 2 scriptures.

Ever wondered why Hitler treated them the way he did?
You can find out the speech he made about them on January 30 1939.

by your account if you agree that historically it is their ancestral home, then they have a right to lay claim to that land, considering the fact they have no other place to call home and as an ethnic race they deserve a place, the best solution is for the two to share.

fatherjesse:
It is the worst and nothing will change that.
When we started to talk on the hardship occasioned by PMB government, they labeled us IPOB and wailers that it was still early days and that it would eventually get better. It will only get worse with this drug lord that is only out to compensate those who helped to rig him to power.

I swear the one reason why I can and will never believe anything this Apc and it's supporters say, for the single fact they supported buhari even to the very last day, even when it was obvious he was leading Nigeria to hell.

soullove1881:
FCT is big enough bro and it's understandable.

no it is not, TSA does you limit access to your funds neither does it have a limit of intake or withdrawal, it just promotes transparency, so why would the govt make this move, for what purpose?

Kusu12:
Obidots must turn every thread to wailing thread, people that believed Buhari was cloned, who takes such characters seriously, bunch of losers and dullards.

Reno who believed buhari was a clone is now y'all hero.

IvarTheBoneless:
If Nigeria wasn't given a single vote....

Obidients would have been all over Tinubu like rabid dogs.

At least we got 3. By end of Tinubu's tenure, we will be unanimously elected in.

ivarthebrainless

Maize247:
Obi is not qualify to be local government chairman. He has absolutely nothing upstairs. He will just crame one or two figure and download it and nothing meaningful after

at least he is still better than a brain dead leader whose brain can't even retain any information, WTF is a town hall different from balablu?

Corrinthians:
First it was his remarks on Gaza war that had him in their cross hairs, now this.

We have long predicted this god-servants relationship between this resplendent oaf and his servants (AKA Obidient IPOB) would come to a crashing end soon, with both entities turning sworn enemies, just like they did with Reno.

A this point, some of them would have seen the truism of that prediction and would go easy on gobbling on every sputum he discharges. The clarity of the handwriting on the wall is undeniable.

When you make a god out of an idiot, and make him feel himself infallible and beyond reproach, this is what you get. Obidients are too phucking dull upstairs.

for the record the dumbest folks in Nigeria are tinubu's supporters, Reno omokri is now your hero, when it is obvious to the blind that the idiot just needs relevance, you see how stupid agbadorians are anyone who just wants to catch this idiots all he just need to do is just criticize obi and the dumb oshodi under bridge balablu supporters will automatically begin the ass worshipping.

Mynd44:
Tambuwal and Okowa started it with their betrayal.

Wike is the most disrespected "Leader" in PDP. He has been funding the party for years only for Ariju to come back in 2019 and 2023 to get the ticket because he has money.

You people forget how many times he has bailed Wadata Plaza out or how many PDP governors he helped out in their elections (most recently Obaseki) yet how do theu treat him? Disrespect and betrayal.

Well, disrespect only beat disrespect

while I agree that wike really bailed out the pdp and stood for pdp candidates, you can't also because of your contribution become dictatorial to grown men, he doesn't understand diplomacy or how to address issues just because your supported a candidate does not mean they automatically become slaves to you, this is wike's problem.

SoNature:
I am not a Tinubu's fan and will never be. However, Tinubu's case and Mmesoma's case aren't the same.

While the former didn't FAKE anything about his result (because the school acknowledged that he finished from there), Mmesoma upgraded her result to win an award.

The little girl is a criminal and nobody should defend her criminality. Criminals like Mmesoma should make Nigéria consider having a juvenile prison.

what makes a document fake is the authenticity of the document the purpose of acquiring the fake does not justify it, I have been in a position where I could have faked a document because of time often times people may travel and forget their document at home and forge a new one just to save time and cost of traveling back home, isn't that forgery, the law that governs Nigeria does not consider the purpose of the act to judge if it is a crime or not, the act itself is a crime.

omoh...........i no dey take dat kind risk again ooh


the tin dn do me once,i no gree cash,and the game later cut.


i nearly cry.

😂😂 I have experience this kinda stuff too, e dey pain Sha

byteem:
What do thes guys have on Tinubu
. Why is this man still GMD.. This is d most important role in Nigeria after chief of defence staff .. Why is the guy still there

i have been thinking about this too, like what do they really have on tinubu? Because when he came in he changed every key sector personal to his personal cycle except the NNPC and we all know the NNPC is the cash cow of the nation. There seems to be more to kyari still being the NNPC chairman

englishmart:
For where? Money wey sportybet don credit me?
I don dey use flexing finish myself like this
