Ikinternational:YOU OKORO PEOPLE ALWAYS THINK EVERYONE IS STARVING IN THEIR HOUSES EXCEPT YOU. YET IT'S YOU THAT FLED YOUR BARREN REGION IN YOUR MILLIONS TO GO AND LIVE IN THEIR LANDS. IT'S YOU THAT WOULD STARVE WITHOUT US. DEPENDENT IDIOTS FEELING FUNKY. |
Azzik:THANK YOU. GO AND SERVE WITH PETER OBI'S GOVT. OR BETTER STILL, SIMON EKPA, YOUR REAL LEADER. EMERGENCY NIGERIANS! TRAITORS WHO HATE NIGERIA WANT TO LEAD NIGERIA. COME CARRY NAU! DREAMERS! |
atiku4President:CRY, CRY, AND CRY SOME MORE. DEMON. |
casualobserver:BECAUSE THEY ARE THIEVES AND CRIMINAL LOOTERS. THEY HAVE NO PRINCIPLES EXCEPT ''IGBO AMAKA''. THAT IS THEIR PRINCIPLE. |
Kaybeth:And have you been ''joIning them'' sInce they said that? Have you not been abusing them night and day since the election? ANIMALS. |
LordIsaac:Which one is ''there is no Nigeria''? IPOB outcast. Emergency Nigerian. |
Na wa o. Last week it was Poland, this week Indonesia. It seems like something is brewing in this Abia state of a place. ![]() That state could become the fulcrum of our Industrial Revolution. |
KingKO22:Don’t mind the demons. Only happy when a project is in Igboland. Anywhere else, they trash it. These are the animals that want to lead Nigeria? Never in a million years. We’ll rather die of starvation than be led by demons who hate us. Nasty, repulsive things. |
G00dharddick:You are an absolute imbecil.e. IPOB TERRORIST OUTCAST. What are you even doing on Nairaland? Who asked your opinion? Get your dirty tramp self out of this place, you stinking animal. |
Where’s the road, let us see if is open gutter and no walkway. Don’t show us women dancing. Show us the road! |
In these 5 countries, you will be THROWN IN JAIL for going on YouTube. China North Korea Iran Eritrea Turkmenistan So be careful if you enter those countries. In North Korea the punishment could well be EXECUTION. So be careful! |
yewit37486:Oh please stop this nonsense. Betting is part and parcel of football. It is even small scale in Nigeria. In Europe and the US, virtually EVERYONE bets in all kinds of sports, not just football. If you are good at it, you can pocket good, hard cash that you can use for business or whatever you want. Betting has saved many guys, so just chill abeg. |
Guys, meanwhile, use style to enjoy some career highlights of Super Eagles, Real Betis, and Ajax Champions League winning legend, Finidi George, known as ‘The Gazelle’ at Ajax for his elegance and composure on the ball, and to Super Eagles fans, simply as ‘Finito’. In his heyday he was rated the best attacking right winger in the world (No. 7). Legendary Brazilian and Barcelona left-back Roberto Carlos was once asked which player he feared the most in La Liga. His response, “Figo and Finidi”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2BvwbYMAZ0?si=rINrIZtBYRCSH2-Z https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-d4p4X1ME8?si=I8ItmbFp_s_2Ohxm |
alimiadedayo1:Oh, so all the other countries on Earth have a ''reason to fail'', except Nigeria? Do you think it's only Nigeria that has resources or oil or whatever it is you think makes you special? Rubbish. If the world is experiencing an economic downturn, don't expect Nigeria to be unaffected. Nothing special about you. |
OVB123:SHUT UP. How many of the 54 African countries can you even name, not to mention knowing what is happening there? Many African countries are progressing fast, so just shut your face there. Ignorant thing. |
opes:VERY WRONG QUESTION. The white coaches you worship were given that first chance by their own countries, which made them to blow. SO GIVE YOUR OWN TOP LOCAL COACHES THE SAME CHANCE TO BLOW. Who else will give them the chance if YOU don't? What did Jurgen Klinsmann achieve as a coach before he was made national team coach of Germany in 2004? NOTHING. It was his FIRST coaching job! |
Interesting appointment. So she was Obi supporter before? ![]() This country ehn? Chai!! ![]() |
Watch this video to cure your colonial self hatred, ignorance, white worship, and racial inferiority complex. “Will Africa Return To The African God?” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSb8TswXoyo?si=Sjs1nqntPunLciBd |
Rexymania:I was a deliberate programme of colonial brainwashing after the military invasions with firearms. It started with their forcing their christian religion on us. They did this by seizing the resources of the land by military force, and then insisting that access to those resources was possible only by graduating from their English missionary schools, and getting a job as a clerk, teacher etc. To be admitted into the schools you had to relinquish your religion, get baptised, and get an English name. Eventually the most powerful chiefs and merchants felt obliged to send their kids to the schools, so they would not midd out in the new dispensation, and their kids went there, and were forced to abandoned their traditional knowledge, technology, religion etc, which was subjected to the most vicious vilification and slander in those schools, such that anyone who attended them began to look down on everything African. Till the point we are at today, where anything suggestive of ancestral intelligence and knowledge is scorned and dismissed by ourselves. Pure colonial brainwashing. These ancestors we are talking about did not see God as a white person. They did not see their 'saviour' as a white man. God to them was BLACK LIKE THEM. When you have that kind of mindset, how can you lack self belief or feel inferior or incapable? Anything you want to do, you will just do. |
Ddeliverer007:Because I just read about Obi making a statement to the effect that ''people in government steal more in one day than Yahoo boys steal in one year''. So I was wondering if this saintly, righteous man called Peter Obi - this Angel Gabriel of our times - ever called out his boss, General Sani Abacha for his grand looting, criminality and blood lust, EVEN AFTER his boss passed away. Has he said ANYTHING AT ALL about General Sani Abacha, whom he served FAITHFULLY for several years? |
Ogiame:''Oh look there! Don't look here, where I stink!'' Try another trick. |
Has Peter Obi Ever Condemned His Boss, General SANI ABACHA For Looting Funds and Executing Pro-Democracy Activists? Peter Obi, the military dictator Gen Sani Abacha appointed you Chairman of Tin Can Island Port, Lagos, at a time when Tinubu and others were in NADECO risking their lives in the fight for democracy, and fighting the dictator, who had executed Ken Saro Wiwa and other activists. Abacha's loot is known to have been in the billions of dollars. Have you ever ONCE condemned General Sani Abacha for killing Ken Saro Wiwa and other activists, and jailing many others unjustly, and even causing many to flee the country? Have you ONCE condemned General Sani Abacha for looting the treasury, Mr Peter Obi? |
''EVERYBODY IN GOVERNMENT IS A THIEF EXCEPT ME, EVEN THOUGH I'M A MULTIMILLIONAIRE IN DOLLARS WHO WORKED FOR DICTATOR SANI ABACHA AND WAS STATE GOVERNOR FOR 8 YEARS, AND CANNOT ACCOUNT FOR MY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. BUT TRUST ME. I AM A SAINT.'' -THE PHILOSOPHY OF THIEFER OBI |
Godfullsam:He is satanic. That's why he reasons like that. |
Shawnnn01:That man blows too much grammar instead of working. |
The town of the discovery of one of the largest glass factories is called Igbo Olokun. Very interesting name. I read that there were places in Yorubaland that were once settled by ancient Igbos. Is this place one of them? |
Dronedude:Indeed, my brother. We have so much to learn about our past, it's unreal. |
kestolove95:WHICH AFRICA? This is GHANA. Leave 'Africa' out of your rubbish please. Ivory Coast that is next door to Ghana just held the AFCON which was perfect in its execution. So this is all about GHANA. Leave ''Africa'' OUT of it. Rubbish. |
The 13th All African Games in Ghana is embarrassing Ghanaians before the entire Africa, and the people of Ghana are not smiling at all, as the games keep getting marred by POWER CUTS. An entire stadium was plunged into darkness for 30 minutes, as contestants from across Africa struggled to find their way in the pitch darkness of the stadium! Not just power cuts. The top Ghanaian biker in the cycling category has had to use his own personal bicycle for the event, because the Ghanaian sports authorities did not provide their cyclists with bicycles as is the norm in such tournaments. Just total mismanagement and disgrace throughout! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adUWqP8NPCw&ab_channel=LucasTrendz |
I always laugh when I see these colonial brainwashed Nigerians looking down on their ancestors, simply because of how the British colonialists misrepresented and slandered them. But our ancestors knew chemistry. You cannot produce glass without a deep knowledge of chemistry. How many of you now, if you were asked to produce glass, would have the slightest clue how to do it? This is is why I have decided that EVERYTHING our ancestors did in the past deserves full respect and investigation to see if we can LEARN something from it. INCLUDING THEIR RELIGION, which we were forced and brainwashed to abandon, in order to worship a white man we now call our ''saviour''. TUFIA KWA. Because if our ANCESTORS were smart enough to build paved roads, glass, and even beautiful, crime-free cities with streetlights, underground drainage and multi-storey buildings as was reported by European visitors to 15th century Benin, then THEY MUST HAVE KNOWN WHAT THEY WERE DOING WITH THEIR RELIGION and SYSTEMS OF ADMINISTRATION AS WELL. Oh, one last thing. Our ancestors built the largest man-made structure existing on EARTH today. Only visible in its entirety from OUTER SPACE. The Benin Wall and Rampart system. It was recorded in the 1974 Guinness Book of Records as being 4 times longer than the Great Wall of China, and consuming a hundred times more material than was used to build the largest pyramid in Egypt, the Pyramid of Khufu. https://www.theguardian.com/cities/2016/mar/18/story-of-cities-5-benin-city-edo-nigeria-mighty-medieval-capital-lost-without-trace Today, we are prominent in the Guinness Book of Records for winning the longest cooking contest in a kitchen. Just to show you the heights from which we have fallen. ![]() |
THEY KNOW OUR HISTORY, BUT WE DON'T, AND DON'T EVEN SEEM TO CARE. WHY? .......... Independent Newspapers UK Glass was Made in Africa Centuries Before Arrival of Europeans, Says New Evidence Chemical analysis of beads found at a site in Nigeria reveals a composition entirely unique to the region Josh Gabbatiss Science Correspondent ''Glass was produced in sub-Saharan Africa long before Europeans arrived, according to scientists studying beads found in Nigeria. Chemical analysis of glass found at a Nigerian archaeological site revealed a distinct composition entirely unique to the region. The finding contradicts a long-held assumption that glass was brought to sub-Saharan Africa by traders from the Mediterranean or the Middle East...'' https://static.independent.co.uk/s3fs-public/thumbnails/image/2018/01/19/17/glass-beads-africa.jpg Igbo Olokun, the site where the beads were discovered, is in the north of an ancient city and regional centre of power called Ile-Ife – the ancestral home of West Africa’s Yoruba people. “This area has been recognised as a glass-working workshop for more than a century,” said Dr Abidemi Babatunde Babalola, an anthropologist at Harvard University who led the research project. The abundance of glass beads found in Ile-Ife has been associated with the many shrines and sculptures historically located there – however, archaeologists have presumed they were evidence of trade with distant nations. “The glass-encrusted containers and beads that have been uncovered there were viewed for many years as evidence that imported glass was remelted and reworked,” said Dr Babalola. There have been suggestions over the past decade from researchers that the glass production in Ile-Ife was in fact an entirely local affair, but evidence for such an industry was lacking. Now, the beads and glass working debris found and analysed by Dr Babalola and his collaborators appear to resolve the matter. “The Igbo Olokun excavations have provided that evidence,” Babalola said. Of the 12,000 glass beads found at the site, the researchers analysed 52 and found none matched the composition of glass produced anywhere else. Two groups of glass were found at Igbo Olokun, one with high levels of lime and alumina, and one with low levels of lime and high levels of alumina. Both were identified as unique to the region, and Dr Babalola and his team noted their composition reflected the local geology and raw materials that were available. Notably, the glass found at Igbo Olokun was also dated to between the 1100s and 1500s, centuries before Europeans established trade networks in West Africa. “We are now confident beyond reasonable doubt that both the high lime-high alumina and low lime, high alumina groups of glass represent a glass produced in early Ile-Ife using local recipes, raw materials and technology,” wrote the researchers in their paper documenting the findings. Their results are published in the Journal of Archaeological Science. The occurrence of similar beads in other West African societies, as revealed by other archaeological excavations, indicated the glass produced at Igbo Olokun was part of a wider regional trading network. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/glass-africa-made-before-european-arrival-colonialisation-advanced-technology-a8168601.html |
