hmm interesting but it will lose its prestige, that wait for four alone makes it special,when it finally arrives,u wont wanna miss any moment, cant wait for next years` already

But African nations cup hasn't lost it's shine despite being held every 2 yrs.

flokii:
Oh.. I forgot to add clout chasers like Dj sWITCh too were there..

You talk of Police brutality, have you heard of or seen what happens in the US with their Police? at least you heard the popular case of George Flyod. Did Americans go about violating rights of others and denying people movement like Dj sWITCH did at Lekki?

It's like Nigerians have gotten accustomed to lawlessness that most don't even know what is right from wrong. Violating a curfew declared by a sitting executive governor of a state is tantamout to an insurrection against the state which was the case for Dj sWITCH and her hoodlums. Let her go and gather people in Canada or wherever she is to block movement and see if she won't land in jail.

There was massive protest after the murder of George Floyd incl in front of White House.
Go and sit down one side.
Instead of u to come out and confess u hustling for your daily bread even if at the detriment of your children.
At least people on nairaland will understand and show some empathy to the rubbish uve been writing since the report came out.

Lobatan!

tollyboy5:
Let me say this bro. We Yoruba's are hypocrite and heartless people.

We only care for immediate neighbors and what benefits us.

Yoruba politicians and governors are useless and selfish morons.
They only aspire for public office for personal gain. Any other thing is irrelevant.
Carry your problems go meet then n see how they will ignore u.

unshakablejihad:
[s]his ethnicity was never in doubt not even for once . [s]Yorubas never had any form of a writing system, your ancestors were irredeemably too daft to raise a pen. u can only fool the dumb monkeys from the west with such malicious lies.

Your comprehensive skill is poor. read to digest before you start wanking off and displaying your shallow ignorance.

u either educate me on the Yoruba man who could write and read before him or you shut up till eternity.
[/s]

Go and learn Yoruba ajami script b4 talking daft n stupid.

Whoever said yoruba has no written language before advent of coloniasim is simply ignorant.
Islam arrived yorubaland in the 16th century and by 19th century places like Ede already has strong Islamic community.
Yoruba was written in ajami script long before Samuel ajayi developed the romanised yoruba written system.
Ilorin musicians were writing waka songs in ajami script by mid 19th century during Ramadan period to wake up faithful for prayers.

This distorted view that Africans had no written language b4 colonialism is daft.

Written language developed independently in just 3 places..china, Mesopotamia and India. Whatever language written elsewhere originate from the 3 above...incl all European language.

Ovie56:
Ok, this whole situation is the fault of people who goes to another country illegally in the name of freedom. Stay in ur own damned country until you are permitted to go legally

They are refugees mainly from war torn countries like Yemen, Syria n Iraq.
Yeah...guess who started the crisis.
They have every damn right to invade the western nations that wanted to spread freedom n human right by fire by force.

Differentiate:
But why is it only Nigerians.?
Chinese immigrate same as Indias , Mexicans and all other race . and they abide by the rules and regulations of the country they immigrate to. With their families and loved ones without any palava of he brought me in and he's demanding for the money I work for .
Honestly black races is a very special being. Everything about us is disorganized.

Indian women too dey change am for their men, especially if him no hold correct pepper and wants to be trying all those indian culture bullshit.
Pakistani women and women from strong Islamic culture have been intimidated to submission tru fear and sometimes violence. They sometimes get killed by the men if they become too troublesome.
Chinese women hold their own end tight within the family setting. Beside Chinese men are not too domineering.
Latino women don't take bull.shit from their men and they could be violent except for the ones with strong catholic background.
Don't kid yourself bro, here if u treat women like in naija...u simply asking for what's coming to u.

System202:
So what If u are Muslim. U are hypocrite muslim that asslick those cronies that is why they made u slave and mouth less in ur own land. If u like Value them like Gold, those bigots will always see u as shit

U no get sense one bit.
There's no family in yorubaland that doesn't have followers of both religion as members. None except for maybe ekiti people.
Mad people everywhere.

Bombastically00:
[b]She explained that she conspired with her husband to kill two of the children due to poverty, while they dumped one child around the Osogbo Technical School area.

She what tinubu appointed governors like Aregbesola has turned southwest into..with their recklessness n greed.
When the wicked rule, the people suffer.

Yet when we oppose tinubu's presidential ambition, some APC miscreants will claim we denying our own.

theamazonguru:
Hey listen to me.
Don't waste time. Pack your load and go.
You have nothing to be afraid of.
An acquaintance of mine got a $10,000/ month Job with Amazon in the US. He was even asked to choose between working form home, anywhere in the world or at the head office. Guy chose to work from the head office because he wanted to face all the challenge possible and of course enjoy networking.
Note: The job was not what he has any knowledge of, but he was trained on the job for 6 months and dude is doing great now.


Are you afraid of facing new challenges?
Then you ain't ready to move to your next financial level.
Leave your comfort zone my dear.
Go and maximize your God given potential.
Be strong and courageous. Go and take over the land.

Congratulations.

Did he get the Amazon job from Nigeria.

franchasng:
I stated that it's applicable to study in US, go back and read again boy.


Most professional jobs in developed countries require you to register with the professional body, this is applicable in my engineering field, in my wife's medical field.



I stated it clearly that most professional jobs.



I wonder the job a Canadian company would need to hire a foreigner without the foreign professional not being screened to know if his or her education and experience matches that of Canada to show he can deliver on the job according to Canadian standard.



Maybe you can enlighten us so I can learn you know

Most IT jobs don't need certification. Once they realise u are good n have the necessary skills, they will hire u.
But I agree with what u said about the visa processing.

flokii:
Yes we need restructuring but we also need a good strategy to achieve that part of which is winning the presidential elections.

The real concern now is why only igbos attacking Yoruba leaders in Yoruba land.. what exactly could be giving them such mind if not 'see finish'. They need to be checkmated fast before war or something will breakout on their heads.

Ibo ranting only end in nairaland or twitter. In real life, they know their lane and they don't cross it. They are not our problem. Beside we both want the same thing- economic freedom and restructuring.
The people who will truncate tinubu presidential ambition are not ibos. Stop looking for none existent enemies.
Just like one of the Yoruba monarch said couple of days back, we should stop living in past glories and focus on the present or we risk lagging behind.
Now what is tinubu or osinbajo doing about the above? Nothing, the present yoruba politicians installed by tinubu are the worst to have ruled in Yorubaland. So greedy n selfish.
Tinubu is simply using the yoruba camouflage to achieve his presidency goal, he has no genuine interest for the yoruba.

flokii:
Oh so you observed too.. they can't go North to attack their leaders there but they are all over Lekki toll plaza and Ikoyi looking for every means possible to attack prominent Yoruba leaders relevant in politics.

Yorubas matter don tire me.. Awolowo was humiliated and jailed for crimes he didn't commit. M.K.O and his wife Kudirat were murdered in cold blood over election he won.
Now they are gunning for Tinubu, Sanwo Olu and PYO yet some Yorubas are still forming indifferent to the evil script enemies of SW are playing. All I know is that their plot will fail.

Those yoruba leaders u mentioned should demand for what the people actually want- restructuring.
U will be surprised how people will rally round them n fight for them.
Just what ibos are doing for nnamdi kanu.
For now, Tinubu n co are just fighting for their pockets not for yoruba interest. I wouldn't waste my resources or time on them.

thesicilian:
It is not okay for adults to dress in pants and bra (call it bikini if you like) in public, that is the point.

Well I don't know about bikini being a decent dress in some public area.
But I can assure u they will continue to wear it in 10yrs to come in public. Nothing will change..its brasil.

thesicilian:
It's astonishing the kinds of dressing and behaviours that have come to be widely accepted as normal and woke.

I shudder to think how it will be in ten years time.

Calm down..brasil has always been like that. People are just becoming more aware due to internet n social media. Go and watch the movie called city of God n learn about life in basil in the 80s n 90s.
But I can't say same for Nigerian girls though.

babyfaceafrica:
This is a blanket statement, just say many people don't care.. Some do

Nobody cares except immigrants who have imported their backward and primitive culture into these advanced countries.
I repeat, native population don't care.

Una carry women virginity for head as if it solves all problem besetting the society n family.
U guys won't advance for the rights of women like equal inheritance, laws protecting women from vulnerabilities and oppression. Africa remains one of the worst place to be a woman.
U continue to defend a primitive patiarchal system that see women as lesser being.
Black men are so weak mentally they can't reason beyond the present circumstances to see the bigger picture.
See this one using the Bible to justify the curse of a woman. A book written thousands of years ago. Yet the book had clearly stated that Jesus has lifted the curse off every being.
With the kind of men we continue to produce, the black race is in serious trouble.

mixta140:
If you don't like Nigeria comot ooo...
Nigerians too like complain...
Person wey no dey contribute go dey complain our money up and down....
Masses sef get for body...
If you dont like the app leave am now...
Simple instructions many people no dey follow ... na to dey claim I go school up and down...
If the app ain't useful for you leave am...
Some is even saying up there "we go bring am down" aswear Nigerians deserve its leaders...
Even your uncle or Aunt for abroad no help una life ... na Buhari wey no sabi you ... you go dey cry ontop... and many no dey contribute to the progress of this nation.. many always wanting what they dont deserve...
Ordinary App ... see as una dey complain... since them don born some people here how much you don pay as tax sef...
Na to dey collect una like ... contribute na lie... govt no be saint... same with the masses ...
Many dey vex cus no be them dey chop the money

All this epistle u wrote will only make sense if your father is among those chopping money in this govt.
Otherwise this nonsense is from someone that lack sense.

alphaNomega:
Black refers to the colour of your skin and place of origin. As a Yoruba man, you are black. Have you seen a white Yoruba man?

Let's call a spade a spade and leave all these petty "wokeness"

There is a thread celebrating a gunboat designed and built by Nigerian Naval Shipyard whatever... this is a black nation military wing creating something that cannot match the British navy from 100 years ago.

U have shallow knowledge of your history and it explains the lack of self confidence u displaying.
One guy up there even said white man brought clothes to Africans. FYI, Africans taught white people how to bath with soap.
The guy is right if he wants to identify as Yoruba man. Enough of all this painting Africa with one brush.

I don't understand how someone will just decide to financially empower his enemy and still continue to do so even in the face of imminent danger.

China was dirt poor until western nations decided to move their factories and manufacturing capabilities to China. This move turned China into a humongous economic power within 20yrs with financial resources to invest in advanced military weapons n sophisticated defence capabilities.

What did western countries get in return from the deal? Absolutely nothing of except for more wealth to the already rich.
It's obvious greed and stupidity lies not only with African leaders.

Is that not the exam for investment bankers?
The exam na die, I'm not even sure they have a centre in nigeria. It's also very expensive.
It's worth it provided u have the time and strength. It takes an average 4 yrs to complete the 3 level of exams.
Pls chop well b4 u commence the program. All the best.

Empiree:
Get lost. The point is made clear. You guys denied you do flog. Don't tell others what to do.

Pls don't quote me again. U this irredeemable fanatic. Despite your education, you remain an unrepentant Islamic extremist.
Sebi u claim u live in a developed country. Try such nonsense with your daughter or anybody's child in the mosque u attend, and see if u won't spend the rest of your life in jail.

Empiree:
This is from your fellow christian.. Second comment is from a Muslim's experience in the Eastern part of the country

This guy is very funny. Bringing up irrelevant issues to justify abuse.
I condemn any flogging going on in churches in the name of deliverance. I expected u to do likewise as regards the video. Thats what education does to the mind.

Tareq1105:
The MURIC man would share with us one day what transpired during his daughter wedding last year or so.

Abeg gist us

Empiree:
Are you done with epistle or you have more to say?. This that you described doesn't seem to regulate those Church doing ridiculous things. Such as beating up alleged witches. Does is it?

Church discipline is within what the law permits. Beating up people due to witchcraft is assault. Such religious leader will get arrested and prosecuted. CAN won't come to your rescue. Ask reverend king who's waiting for the hangman's noose.
Even, bishop oyedepo had a taste of his own high handedness when he was dragged to court for slapping a girl.

Empiree:
how does it concern you?. Whatever shortcomings the institution has we will work on it. It is none of your business to tell us how to run the show.

U asking how it concerns me? That school is a breeding ground for hardened and criminal minded islamic fanatics. What goes on there is indoctrination of terror.
When they join boko haram, become bandits, killer herdsmen or full blown terrorists; then they become everyone's concern.
Besides such acts as in the video is a recipe for domestic violence and abuse.
The only lesson I can learn from this video is that it's ok for husband to beat his wife, the wife must accept the punishment and suffer in silence.

Arabic schools ( ile keu) in nigeria have always been known as a den of terror ever since I was a child. Every Muslim child fears the alfas in charge, they always have gory tales to tell.
I can't really blame the malams because they don't know any better. They are not educated and they simply perform the role as was handed down them.
But what I don't understand is why the elite n educated among u has failed to do anything about these schools but continue to cover their atrocities. It says a lot about the religion itself.

Empiree:
my daughter would not violate institution protocols. It seems you didn't read it hear full story of what transpired. So go back and research several online statements made by Muslims before you jumped the gun

Oga your daughter is not a saint. No child is a saint. They make mistake and should be corrected. It's part of growing up.
Yes children must be disciplined but there should be a clear dermacation from abuse.
What did she do? Drank alcohol...and the punishment is violation of her dignity.
It's funny how u guys boast u live abroad, but haven't learn anything from your new environment.
Tmrw now, they will invite u to take up a top govt role in naija hoping to see changes only for u to make a make a mess of yourself. When u guys don't learn.

Empiree:
where did he change it sir?. This stupid excuse that you Christians use is outdated. Talk something else. Here in this Bible Jesus whipped the Jews in the temple and not only that, he violently scattered the temple in the name of correcting misdeeds of the Jews.

John 2:15


Problem is that you Christians have shamelessly abandoned your religious laws because you don't follow Jesus. If you do you would applied his laws.

The Book of Matthew 5:17 is enough

Jesus was restoring order, discouraging chaos and enforcing discipline in the house of God. Nobody condemned what he was doing incl religious leaders because they knew it was the right thing.
They only questioned his authority which was inconsequential.

And we still do it. Order is enforced in churches via ushers and security guards.
The case of sowore's boys who brought political protest to Dunamis church in Abuja is still fresh. They were rounded by church security n handed over to DSS. The church is not a place for political stunt.
If u attend church service in an inebriate state or u start constituting public nuisance within church premises, u will be kicked out. Members are expected to be sober and orderly in church.
Security officers patrol church premises during service or crusades to enforce discipline or prevent people who might want to engage in immoral behaviour. If u are CAUGHT, u will be detained and possibly disciplined. The church is not a venue for illegal activity.
So we still follow our Lord's commandment as stated in the verse u quoted within the ambience of the law of the land.

Now to that video...what's going on there isn't discipline but a barbaric act carried out by primitive and illiterate teachers of law and their students.
How can 4 men descend on a defenceless lady in such manner. That's extreme abuse n violation of her right , body and dignity.
And it's unfortunate that the educated ones among u support such behaviour all in the excuse that's it's an internal affair. I'm sure u will NEVER allow your daughter be treated in such manner.
The above is the reason why most peple have contempt and disregard for Islam. The silence of the moderate majority in the face of violent behaviour by the extremist minority is worrisome.

TheSupleemLeada:
But OP....at the end of the day, on the flip side of things.

Look at which region has experienced more peace compared to other regions in Nigeria.

North is dealing with banditry and terrorism.

South east is dealing with unknown gunmen and ipob.

South south just finished dealing with militancy not so long ago.

With all their clannishness and agenda what has it brought them except for sorrow, pain and tears. The only downside is the increased in flow of economic migrants into our region. Yorubas just need to learn how to balance the liberalism and conservatism, be more logical, politically aware and tribally conscious.

can we then restructure this country?
I have no business with Peter Obi looting the commonwealth of the Anambra. If the ibos are happy with him, its their headache not mine and shouldn't be yours either.
But I have a big problem with Tinubu or any other Yoruba politicians looting southwest states into poverty. That's my commonwealth and the Yorubas are my people. Their prosperity is my joy.

The issue of overlooking the corruption of your politicians is what is holding this country back. The obsession with controlling the centre has made lots of reasonable southern Nigerians become stupid and this cuts across all ethnic groups. We now make ridiculous attempt at redefining corruption on social media, making excuses for politicians that should be languishing in jail.

But can u blame them? The David Hudeyin report showed the north have taken the south for a fool far too long than what is permissible.
The answer to this nonsense is to restructure the country, and every region should decide how they want to hold their politician accountable.

Tdoctor:
The way tribal abuse goes on in nairaland, you begin to wonder if there is hope. When Peter Obi is questioned, Igbos rush out with brickbats to defend him. If Tinubu is mentioned, torrents of abuse rain from the Yorubas. If Buhari or Dangote is mentioned, the Fulani/Hausa flood the space with insults. Yet nothing is changing.

Yoots of today. Hypocrites of tomorrow Mtschew

Ironically, if u say let's go our different ways, some we say no...we are better as one.
