ritababe:
his descendant became oba of Benin because he himself is from Benin.


there are facts and the Oba of Benin said it himself during coronation and also the Ooni also said so.

If he was banished from benin then he shouldnt have anx ties with the kingdom..are you from benin?

dederocs:
The Benin empire was the strongest and most formidable in the whole west Africa, only parts like Ashanti tribe of Ghana and Timbuktu in Mali can be compared to it.

Hence it is never feasible that a man or Prince from Nigeria will go conquer a nation like America and take over their Kingdom...

I still dont get...never heard about oduduwa having benin root but instead otherwise...

ritababe:
oduduwa was a banished prince from bini

For where....thats an irrational claim..if oduduwa was a banished prince how come his descendant(son) became an oba in benin?

IamaNigerianGuy:
I will ignore your tone and respond to your points.

Ekhaladeran was no ordinary man or common citizen. He was by all accounts a bini prince who led a major rebellion against the Oba. He had soldiers, supporters, wives and sundry followers in his retinue.
Due to the determination of the palace to find and subdue him, he wandered through many lands and for many years before settling far away in what is now yorubaland.
He would not be the first to fotc
If you read Samuel Johnsons book on the origin of the yoruba.A passage of the book shows that Ife was founded by a rebel prince and he was accompanied by many followers.

Make a valid historical point or rest your case. I am open to learning new things so should you

My brother if an oba existed before your prince left benin,then that means ife and the yoruba race existed before then because the first oba of benin or so was a descendant of oduduwa.thats why benin also use the title "oba"

Annoying thing is most people believe in this juju for whatsoever reason they deem fit. Nollywood is the major forerunner in making people believe that hanging one piece of sh*t makes you immune to bullets fired at you.

Omo dont say that,the way technology is advancing is the same way jazz is also....his jazz is sub-standard...but i must admit there are some weapons u gat no choice but run from cause jazz or no jazz na still death....ask anini,oyenusi etc

God using a Muslim to rule Christians
I haven't seen thread on Muslim prophecies on nairaland, have you?
Share me a link, I promise to read it comprehensively

I support you on that...i haven't seen one also...but there is nothing God cant do

haulagehandlers:
If I may ask you this,putting on a three piece suit and a fedora or bowler hat to the beach is fantastic kwo? perhaps when I want to go to the gym or football pitch I should just put on my starched agbada? many many fly dey chop shiit that nah mean say shiit na beta tin. different different cloth for different different occasions, if you dey church,e get wetin you go wear. if you dey go club e get wetin you go wear.even na moshalashi e get him own dress code. we no go come because we want make yanga person go come carry face of wound wey dey under leg dey match ground,no impossicant. let's do everything accordingly, "decency is not pride,its a way of life".

My bro decency knows no occassion...if you want to be decent you should be 100%...but i get your point tho

[quote author=9jakohai post=54295873]Full disclaimer..... I own a pair of jeans, which I once wore to church

OK.... The fashion question.

The question Christians should ask before wearing any clothes is whether they are glorifying God or.self.And yes, you can glorify self by dressing in sensible clothing.... (because nothing says I am a better Christian than you are in a sober black suit, or deeper life dress).
If you are out to glorify self, if you are out to look good, if your motive is not to glorify Christ,don't wear that piece of clothing..whether shredded jeans or sober black suit.
That said, most churches have a dress code... because some weak Christians may see a worldly dressed Christian, and think that they are free to do all the things that come with the worldly lifestyle. And if wearing jeans will cause my weaker sister to.stumble..then I better not wear jeans. As my responsibly as a sempai to my kohais in the church (animespeak ).

Remember jesus didnt come for the righteous but for the gentiles which is applicable to non-christians

Nigerian gods of men and lies re inseparable!



All of them combined cannot pray for ailing economy to miraculously boom but re always the very first to predict doom!

Not all tho...just be careful the way you talk about prophets..even with all the miracles and signs jesus gave they still didnt believe in him..

Is speaking fluent English synonymous to being intelligent?

I know a guy who graduated with concessional pass (CP), but cimmunicates in english fluently, how about this one?

Am not disputing the fact you are right in all what you have said...thanks cause u just dont understand the message i was trying to pass...

kabrud:
@ the emboldened, really? Even for a graduate who identified a Civil Engineering graduate that "cannot communicate well"? And did Julius Berger complain of not understooding this Civil Engineering graduate who "cannot communicate well?
Even in Pidgin, do you spell proper nouns with initial lower case letters? Or does Pidgin permit arbitrary compounding of non compound words?
Describing others derogatively doesn't in anyway place you ahead of them, it doesn't work that way. If you are truly ahead of them, it will be visible to the blind and audible to the deaf, you need not make noise about it.

You dont even understand the message i was passing through...someone talked about northerners been illiterates and am making him see that its not about english...then you came into the scene lambasting me

How is this news

kabrud:
Just imagine who is assessing the 'wellness' of another person's English. Boy, a good jss 3 pupil writes better than this.

Just chill....atleast you understood me....and that wasnt pure english,it was mixed with pidgin

slurryeye:
I believe Buhari is still alive. But as a concerned citizen of Nigeria, all I'm asking for just like any well meaning Nigerian, is for the president to do a short video addressing the citizens so as to clear this air of doubt. I don't think this is too much to ask for

I concur...just something to make wailers shut up...we all ar worried.

The conductor didnt conduct well....rip

officialJP:
Hausa winning award am still surprised i no dem as illiterate maybe is a......

Not all tho...quite a few are literates...but i must admit them no try at all...but them they get connection o...i know a northerner that graduated from unimaid(civil eng) he cant communicate fluently in english but now working with julius berger..

So to be an in-law to the president warrants an award and to be an enemy to the president warrants court case....its so funny how things work out in this country..."The day you know your problem is the day you are healed" but we dont want to accept we have a problem because of ethnicity an religion..yoruba will say "tiwa n tiwa" ,ibo will say na my blother,hausa go commot dagger...

bignero:
didnt get what you said...

but the collapse was a ''felled building'' style ie to say it was controled demoltion and brought down by explosives...theres too much evidence to prove this,the building collasped like it was taken down,not the way a normal colllapse will occur, the war plane was probably the control center...if you get data,i belive the video is still on youtube,go and see for urself

Yes i agree with you...i thought you meant it was the movement and vibration of the helicopter that caused the collapse

tribalistseun:
Church business in Nigeria na big business. So that PASTOR should please come and explain to us, out of 400 channels on dstv, what is he doing on channel 198 (bigbrother). That Pastor might be watching the show when his wife had gone to bed

He doesnt even needs his wife to go to bed....may be he caught his children watching it..
