Culture is always beautiful to the ears when heard in its historical context; and a delight to the eyes when read.

Our regard for the Edo Monarchy is top notch.... and not one which is shown only when it is convenient.
Oba gha tokpere....The true custodian of our traditions.

That is why I am saying that there is no ambiguity in the history of Lagos if we are going to tell the truth. All these people, who have been talking, never mentioned that they paid Isakole but we all know that. It is written in books that they paid Isakole. That was the main reason the Benin came and took Olofin away. He refused to be subservient to them. The Benin came here because it is their territory.

Hehe....but like she said. Everything is just ceremonial and courtesies now.

Oba gha to kpere. Isee. Oba n'ogidigan!

YorubaDemonswag:
We're saying the same thing, Ogiso mean king in Benin, Oba mean light or red, so why are you people lying that Oba is Benin title when in fact we superior Yoruba impose the title Oba on you

I have small time, lemme give you attention.

Ogiso does not mean King, it is a compound word that means "King of the Skies".

Just as in English that you're slightly used to, a word can mean different things in different context. Light means "brightness", just as light can also mean "of little weight"

Oba (long form a...like "aaaah" can be an adjective to mean something is red or bright.
Oba in the context of royalty, means King.

But whatever you say, in Edo, the King is TRULY KING. Till tomorrow.

Time up. I no go answer you again. Lol...Have a great day Epa

YorubaDemonswag:
Point of correction sir, he's Ogiso of Benin not Oba of Benin,he can't be using our title and still be saying trash about us.

Lol...thinking Ogiso means one small name?
Ogiso means "King of the Sky"
The sky is everywhere....so? You see?

Most of you bantering over this matter have never even read history before now.

.

Claiming cultural superiority upandan. Yoruba this, yoruba that. Yet there's nothing really "extra ordinary" about you guys. History is history. We're not living in the past glory if that's how you guys roll.

Yes, Yoruba founded the English Kingdom too in 419BC.
Make una carry.

...Oya....hit us with that survey doings.

If opinions were paid for by one's IQ, You'd be too bankrupt to afford it.
But alas, N25 data and everyone airs an opinion.

Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!

Generating meaningful comment...

Hmmmm....I really join you in prayers for him. I don't know what the rehabilitation was about though. But if after six months he still fell back to his habits, then maybe the main underlying course has not been solved.

Smoking weed could be one of the manifestations of the character defect which he has. I don't know if we have many of such in Nigeria, but he needs to talk to a Behavioural Therapist. Or you guys need to sit him down and really ask him what he wants to do with his life.

If he's not finding any meaning about his life (even with the obvious concern of people around him), then it will be hard for any form of rehabilitation of side effects to be solved. Also, you guys should really show concern (by this I don't mean just sending him off to rehab - he should feel a sense of care and then see a need to appreciate the care he's receiving) about helping him not destroy himself, cos he's on that path already.

Also, for someone who just came out of rehab, I think he has too much unsupervised freedom. If he needs to learn a skill, it should be in the same area where eyes can be on him....and it should be a skill that he wants to learn - irrespective of wether you guys find it lucrative or not - it will help him find a distraction from his bad habits.

Who are his friends? Weaning one off an habit is difficult if they're still within reach of their triggers/enablers.

Work on yourself sir, you can't have all of these knowledge that you claim and yet nothing to do. Market yourself 👌

You've said it all my Chief.

I've come to realize that the best stack eventually is the one you should as a result of you considering its requirements vs your ability... Your time, previous exposure to things related to that field and the resources to learn.

Anyone can give an opinion based on their own strengths or based on general consensus, but you have to do the research yourself and find something out. It's easier to help you decide between three different choices than being blank about what to do.

6 - 12 months . Well....... Answer the above first and you'll get your answer

Your maturity is the star in this story. Unless you left out the part where you probably cut chain 😅.

Like one guy said up there... Na man you be.

All the best Brother. Things will work out for good. Just keep adding value to yourself so that when the opportunity comes, you'll be able to earn it and hold your own.

Ask your school for a signed letter head paper to that effect. Since their staff was responsible for the mis-information, they have a responsibility to do that for you.

But, if no paper works or documentation was done earlier (means culinary school is fancy word ). But that or a call from her should put your sponsor's heart at ease.

History is Beautiful... .African Traditional history free from the manipulative influence of the Colonial intrusion is always a joy to read.

Long live the beautiful heritage of our diverse cultures.
Personally, Oba gha to'kpere, Ise!!! 😊

If the person won't agree to facts, I'd say "I am wrong and you're right, now take your medal and leave me alone."

Depending on the context of who-the-person is to you, this can end the argument but so easily start a war. Lol.

1. It's alright.. And then Keeping quiet can never go wrong....
2. We're both adults, let's agree to disagree on this. If the person still won't stop, then revert to point 1.

"You don't want competition, BUT you hate MONOPOLY."

Hypo...crites innit. The dear girl did no wrong. GWR is nobody's birthright. Records are made to be broken.

I just want them to scrape the ALX foundation and go straight to the main course. Na why I vex. I sabi Networking, Web apps and Malware Analysis Soo stuff like this isn't new.

ALX will humble you. Forget everything you thought you knew about Networking and Web Apps.... They didn't say hard things for beans.

I personally am in SE Foundations....every thing is towards the end goal... To be grounded in soft and technical skills
