Culture / Re: Pictures From 2024 Ojude Oba Festival In Ijebu by TossTos: 3:04am On Jun 19
haybhi1:
Did you know that if Oluyinka Olutoye was an American, he would garner about as much recognition as Ben Carson?

I'm so proud to be a Yoruba, I swear. Class, elegance, growth, success, grit, social, vibes, hospitality, and strength are what our story represents. Big ups to you, if you're a Yoruba. You're the only of your kind. Keep marching.

Some of the most successful African alive have our blood and roots; Adenuga, Soyinka, Awolowo, Ogunlesi, Fela, Sade Adu, Anthony Joshua, Isreal Adesanya, Akintola Williams, F. R. A Williams, Funke Akindele, Folorunsho Alakija, K.S.A, Ayinde Barrister, Wizkid... just inexhaustible list.

Let me not mention football, 2023 UCL semi final had Yorubas on 3 starters of the 4 teams; Alaba, Akanji, and Fikayo; 2024 final has Adeyemi,... Musiala, Saka, and so on. Other sports nko? Adesanya Isreal says hi.

Did you know it's impossible to write the history of Africa without recognizing our important role in about EVERY of its facet, from Oyo empire, to slavery, to richest woman in Africa, to one of richest cities in Africa, to the first subsaharan to receive a noble prize, to a vanguard role in tech (Olugbenga Agboola and Tope Awotona)—it's an endless list.

Thing is I'm surprised how some Yoruba allow some things other people say get to them, unrealizing they're and have always had potentials to be bigger.

UI, Yabatech, OAU, first subsaharan Nobel Prize owner—chai, this education thing, leave am gve us(the cradle of west African education)—first stadium in Africa, first African TV station, first Nigerian club to win international competition, first professor in Nigeria, first teaching hospital in Nigeria, >½ of all Nigerian professors made in Yoruba land, tallest Nigerian building; inexhaustible list of Yorubas achievement.

Look, if you're a Yoruba, and you haven't thought about and walked the path of making yourself, your immediate environment better, then you're wrong! I make bold to say that.

Forget your natural disposition, you could be anything with and make a thing off it—see Portable (3 years ago, he was absolutely a guy you might call urchin, today he's everywhere and progressing with his demeanor), see Tems (as cool as a dove, yet making money and impact off her talent regardless). Do something for yourself, you're a Yoruba, have you forgotten the line of blood your forefathers stem from? Greatness is in you. Countless if your Yoruba likes are found in US and UK government. Wake up, do something.

That you're a female isn't an excuse, we're arguably the tribe with most successful women in Africa, from Azizat Oshoala, Funke Akindele, Mo Abudu, Tems, Tiwa Savage, F. Alakija, to many of female bank CEOs of Yoruba origins, and so on. Nothing is limiting you, you're a Yoruba! No dey dull, legally!





Damn, I just wanna make so much dough, be influential, marry a classy, beautiful, and educated Yoruba babe, attend these kind functions with her, and give this man a run for his swag(in my old age), as Omoluabi wey I be. grin cheesy

Olodumare a bukun fun o lopolopo ...

Give this man too a run with his tobacco..
Don't forget, Skepta is a yoruba too ..

Politics / Re: Atiku: How I Saved Tinubu’s Political Career by TossTos: 12:26am On Jun 10
Eriokanmi:
You can say that again. My love for Nigeria is indescribable but I'm sad with what I'm seeing today. The majority of those tribalists here on NL have not done half of what I had done for my people in donations through my partners in Lagos alone. I don't have to mention one. Unfortunately, this generation of youths are so glued to sentiments which always inform their weird decisions 99% of the time, which would later haunt them in life. Presently I'm in America for another batch of donations to the less privileged in the society, especially in Lagos where I belong. There's one of our partners who is into sports, grooming young Nigerians across tribal lines on how they'd find their place at the global stage , through scholarships and all.

But I chose not to support this man called Tinubu for a lot of reasons. Those living here, who used to be his supporters are so disappointed right now but I told them last year during my visit that it's not enough to rely on propaganda. They need to come and see things themselves at home. Had either fashola, ambode or even osinbajo contested, I'd have supported him with my might and main. The moment I realised this man wanted to get there both by hook and crook, I decided to back off and then I suddenly became an omo ale to the tribal bigots who share in his fake ideology...Tinubu knows the number of his children, wondering how I can be an omo ale by not supporting him. Democracy is a choice but not in Nigeria.

Yoruba would say, ęję ka tibi ishana kiye soogun(which literally means, we should observe the efficacy of a charm by just imagining how the matches ignite, when you strike it) . You said you're Mr magic who built Lagos yet you lost in same Lagos. The 2023 election ought to have been a means of reciprocating your kind gesture in Lagos if you truly deserved our votes. Instead, you started intimidating people with your thugs cos they didnt vote you. Some myopic minds said he lost in lagos cos of the Muslim Muslim ticket however, in alimosho, the largest local government in Nigeria by population and where yorubas constitute over 95% of the population whom are both Muslims and Christian massively voted a non-lagosian was a proof he's not what he's claiming to be..

When they realised that the muslim-muslim ticket they claimed didn't hold water, they now said its ibo votes that made him lose lagos. It's ibo votes but yorubas won the LP seats in Lagos where ibos live...imagine how myopic they are in thinking. 2023 is just a tip of the iceberg. I pray we all witness 2027 in peace. I reserve my comment on Northern votes for the apc.

Sir , I am a real omoluwabi that need means of survival , I will be so grateful or your assistance anyways you can ...

Business / Re: Sent Money To A Wrong Account. How Do I Get It Back ? by TossTos: 3:30am On Jun 01
Sapasenator:


You can never transfer 80M by mistake. No online transfer would allow that so your assumption is moot on arrival.

However, if you walked into a branch and transferred 80M to the wrong account, then the amount is large enough to warrant spending resources to recover. You have to realize you can never charge the recipient with any form of crime as they never broke into your account to take money, you willingly transferred the money to them. No crime has been committed. You cannot even take them to court or charge them with anything.

There is no guarantee that you will get your 80M even after spending all the resources in this world. I will go to police HQ and give 10M out of the 80M to bribe the police ogas. Nothing you can do my friend. I worked in the bank for more than five years.

Now this is an interesting topic of discussion and answers to this topic represent the difference in mindset between rich and poor people, The poor are always full of emotions, and they never reason rationally, like most responders, nobody has even bothered to ask the pertinent question, what can I do to prevent this kind of occurrence in the future? Everyone is hung up on the negative emotions of how to fight and recover the money. The rich are rich because of their mindset, always careful with their money, and will never send money to the wrong. Every week, I transfer money to more than 10 accounts and i will never make the mistake of sending money to the wrong account because I fully understand the implications that I may never get my money back.

You see, no one has access to the account of the recipient, not even the banks are allowed to transfer from recipients account without their consent. There has to be proof of the commission of a crime before the law can go into the account of the recipient to look for the transfer. In this case, there is none.

I can bet money, OP will still send money to wrong accounts in the future.

I so much believe you ..
But please , what can i do in terms of an unauthorized transaction
One of my sister's phone was stolen and her palmpay account was logged into and 499k was transferred to a Kuda Bank before we could reach a customer care agent or try means to suspend the account..
we told the agent to escalate the transaction and she did . But nothing positive has come from it , I keep calling and calling the palmpay for mail to be send to Kuda to know our next move .I messaged Kuda ans the said , they awaits palmpay's mail first ..
