Why do you need to know?

Nigerians and waka about.

colly227: False information.....they should investigate this thoroughly. It didn't just add up.

True that, lord have mercy.


Not sure if nigerians are aware apes are using ipad overseas, this story is highly questionable.

MetaPhysical: There is not a Greek influence in Yoruba language. Let me us paint buckets to explain it.

We represent Egypt with Blue, Canaan with Red and Mesopotamia with Green.

We know Greek stepped into each of these buckets. In its different stages of civilization it was a collocator in Mesopotamia, Egypt and later Jerusalem.

Yoruba is a commonwealth of people who were raised from sister States, some came out of Green, plenty from Red and some from Blue.

So today we look in Yoruba and we see that its Green matches the Green in Greek/Latin/Roman... Does this mean the Green was transplanted or donated by Greek?

You are right in that greek is generally used in a meditteranean context.

Is the op nigerian?

yellowpawpaw: I don't know why this is a problem. His mum's family r supposed to make him part of them. Treat him equal with no discrimination.

Constitutionally in my place,a lady that gave birth out of wedlock is the sole owner of the child even if the father is her next door nebor.
And I lv such constitution.
Makes things easier for boys and gals.
No randy ediot will come to reap where he did not plant.

Afer carryin preg with d stigma associated with it,puttin ur life on hold for ur baby, training him or her to become an adult,then one okoro will come and reap where he did not sow bc of some stupid culture.
Tufiakwa!!!

The op said the mum doesnt even remember or know where the dad is from.


Therefore the dad is to all intents and purposes, unknown, maybe she said that to discourage the son from asking questions, its very likely the actual father is probably closer to home.

I didnt read the write up but yes, family background is important.

Equally important is the person's attitude towards the family background.

He should contact people to help him find a SO, if he's still single.

Are they nigerians?

When is he getting married, or has he married already?

Same applies to his friend.

after considering this issue again, there seems to be a greek influence, as others have stated before.

possibly from before the 11th or 12th centuries, not certain.

the list will soon include all 36 states if care is not taken.

wow, i must say its very exhausting interacting with people who are only on the lookout for negatives to say about you, regardless of the context or appropriateness.

judgemental folks seriously kill the mood wherever they are.

i dont think igbo/calabar marriage is so unusual.


even the culture is very similar.

i think aros [igbo] are descended from a mixture of igbos and efiks or ibibios.

Somehow, something nudges in the crown of my skull and the message Im decoding from it is that at one point in ancient times Yoruba had an intimate contact and experience of Christianity and Jesus as a spirituality and far much earlier than its re-introduction as a modern religion into Yorubaland by missionaries of mid 1800s.

true, this has been discussed before.

clearly, it seems like there was some exposure prior to the modern one we know now.

i originally placed it in the middle ages [before the portuguese contact], however, i'm not too sure since there are also influences from before then eg the romanic ones.

could be sudanic i guess, or northwestern african.

"B" is a multiplier effect, reproducible.

likewise M

gb can imply weighty, ie something of importance.

It doesnt really matter how anyone looks- nigerians will marry anywhere they find themselves.

The joblessness on nl is phenomenal.

I dont think its so unusual.

Akwa iboms are calabar people, to the rest of nigeria.

TheMadame: Maybe or maybe not. Doesn't make fornication or adultry right does it?
Ese has written letters to every one from Jesus to members of the public but has she written an apology to Mrs Fatoyinbo for sleeping with her husband?
Pastor Fatoyinbo on his part claims God has ordered him to say nothing while preparing his robost defence.
My point-The person really sinned against-Mrs Fatoyinbo has recieved no apology from either of the main actors in the saga or
empathy from members of the public.
We must spare a thought for this woman because she and not Ese or Pastor Fatoyinbo is the real victim in this case.

Apologies are only in order if the accuser can prove the "relationship" existed outside the realm of fantasy.

In short, she may not feel a need to!

So what next?

Okija will bring photos from his "mission" there?

Afum4ever will start typing jargon as backup?

I wonder why she is timing her "appearances" to match those of a certain other individual also in a he said she said situation.

Who is pastor J and why cant he reveal his full name?

He shouldnt remain anonymous when the person he's accusing, isnt- thats cowardice and besides, he should prove he's not simply an online monikor cooked up by the usual internet crooks.

Op dont run away, we still need your input.

Why your sudden silence after starting the thread.

The op derailed her post by blaming her doubts on the lack of physical attraction (what a reason).


She probably just cant pinpoint exactly why she's hesitating, she needs to figure that out first, could be something to do with her herself, not necessarily the guy.
