• If you are 1 in a million in China, there are 1,300 people just like you! • China will soon become the number one English speaking country in the world! • The 25% of India’s population with the highest IQ’s is greater than the total population of the United States – India has more honours kids than America has kids! • The top 10 in-demands jobs in 2010 did not exist in 2004! • We are currently preparing students for jobs that don’t yet exist; using technologies that haven’t been invented in order to solve problems we don’t even know are problems yet! • The US Department of Labor estimates that today’s learner will have 10 – 14 jobs by the age of 38! • 1 in 4 workers has been with their current employer for less than a year while 1 in 2 has been there less than five years! • 1 out of 8 couples that got married in the US in 2007 met online! • As at 2008, there are over 200 million registered users on MySpace! • If MySpace were to be a country, it would be the 5th-largest in the world! • As at 2008, the number one ranked country in Broadband Internet penetration is Bermuda, number 19 is the United States while the number 22 is Japan! • We are living in exponential times, as at 2008, there are about 31 billion searches on Google every month, whereas in 2006, the number of Google searches was 2.7 billion! • The first commercial text message was sent in December of 1992! • Today, the number of text messages sent and received everyday exceeds the total population of the Planet! • It took the radio about 38 years to reach a market audience of 50 million! • It took the T.V about 13 years to reach a market audience of 50 million! • It took the Internet about 4 years to reach a market audience of 50 million! • It took the IPod about 3 years to reach a market audience of 50 million! • It took Facebook about 2 years to reach a market audience of 50 million! • The number of Internet devices in 1984 was 1,000! • The number of Internet devices in 1992 was 1,000,000! • The number of Internet devices in 2008 was 1,000,000,000! • There are about 540,000 words in the English language, that means about 5 times as many as during Shakespeare’s time! • It is estimated that a week’s worth of the New York Times contains more information than a person was likely to come across in a lifetime in the 18th Century! • It is estimated that about 4 exabytes (4.0×10^19) of unique information was generated in 2008, which was more than 5,000 years ago, how much more now (2012)! • The amount of new technical information is doubling every 2 years, for students starting a 4-year technical degree; this means that half of what they learn in their first year of study will be outdated by their third year of study! • Nippon Telephone and Telegraph (NTT), a government owned corporation handling telecommunications in Japan has successfully tested a fiber-optic cable that pushes 14 trillion bits per second down a single strand of fiber, which is equivalent to 2, 660 CDs or 210 million phone calls every second, it is currently tripling every six months and is expected to do so for the next 20 years! • By next year (2013), a supercomputer will be built that exceeds the computational capabilities of the human brain! • Predictions are that by 2049, a $1,000 computer will exceed the computational capabilities of the entire human species! • In the course of reading this piece, an estimated 67 babies were already born in the US, 274 babies were born in China, 395 babies were born in India and about 694,000 songs were downloaded illegally!

As they say, 'he who fails to plan, is planning to to fail' but the game of life is well beyond that, life is about taking risk and the rest is history, whichever one comes first can be taken but it depends on the dictate of your spirits at that time, many ladies are aging (and remain unmarried as a result of strategising for the right guy, job or whatever), the best you can do is seek for counselling from those who know better but as for taking one first before the others I cannot guarantee the end results. Life is enshrouded in one great Mystery that must be unraveled by us as we take those risks we love to fear! |
In as much as Calabar is in Nigeria, I don't know of any safe place in the country! Nice and very informative post, good job OP! ![]() |
[quote author=Okija_juju]NONE!!! Cobras are highly venomous and there is no community in Okija or Anambra in general (To my knowledge) that reveres the cobra... Secondly, I dont even think cobras can be found in our parts of Nigeria.. So my Answer is NO!! No Igbo tribe worships the Cobra.. Ask for the python, Its understandable as Pythons dont carry poisonous venoms and rarely attack humans.. I have seen many of them in Anambra State crawling around majestically like they own the town. Its nice to see humans and serpents living in harmony.. My Yoruba friend almost pissed his pants at the sight of one in Obosi. [/quote]That's my field (Wildlife) of course there are cobras in the east, I remembered my stay in Abia, of course they are not as plentiful in Yoruba land, we have enough cobra species in the west! Thanks for the response, wao Iwould love to see the symbiotic relationship between the Idemili people and pythons, I have always maintained that where 'wild animals' are shown love and care they are known to be docile! |
@ Okija, is it true that there is a particular community at Okija where cobras (naja naja species) are reverred? Just asking and I believe you can do justice to that! |
[quote author=Okija_juju]https://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mamrsyN26I1qfmwi0o1_r1_500.gif My Advice to the man would be to divorce her immediately.... She is capable of killing him.. [/quote]Somehow you're right, at least she is a legal wife to the man, she shouldn't have gone that far in the name of 'performing her civic duty' anyway your attention is needed urgently on this thread, appear asap I' ll be waiting for you; https://www.nairaland.com/1102850/mystery-idemili-culture/2 |
If this 'Gorimapa' can fork out those huge sums to purchase those 'wonders-on-wheels' as member of our 'hallow chamber' in a country where 70% are managing to live above 1 dollar a day, then Nigeria has already been hijacked, what a shame on this 'clown'! |
No one knows what will happen in the next mins, if only they had an inkling of what is about to happen they would have put a stop to their deaths, .....what a world we live in? The dead mourning the dead!!! We all owe death and we all must pay death with our lives! May the souls of the dead REST IN PEACE!!! |

ezeagu: The python seems to have spiritual value in many cultures, since this snake is believed to be the boys husband or wife in the past life and they have a shrine for it.Of course, to every culture there is a spiritual attachment, that was why i created the thread! How I wish this can make the front page so that more meaningful contributions can evolve! I wish andre uweh can surface, i need him. thanks odumchi |
Chineke @Ezeagu wetin be dis? That is a Burmese (a member of the python family) playing with that boy! I have stated earlier, any where wild animals are shown love, they tend to be docile in regardless of their wild nature! |

dayokanu: And buying properties means what? Omo Igbo oshi?It simply means you are indirectly mortgaging your future while they are thriving, that is one thin we don't do in my place (Ondo) we are totally different from you (Ogbomoshos) |
Rocktation: BOREDOUTTAYOURMINDO (bord ouro yor myn doh) n. a condition characterized by lethal feelings of boredom and creative illusions. |
