How does poverty correlate with elitism though?

That part isnt clear.

Noblezone


If someone puts made in nairaland on an object, should that connote anything?

This interference is what is causing the high casualties in law enforcement and fueling the lack of respect for authority which is endemic in nigeria.

One report said the police were instructed to hold back in troubled areas in order to avoid conflict with civilians.

Overseas, when you enter police wahala, you don enter be that and if you're lucky, your lawyer can save you.

Biafra4tharmy: the Ladys' handbag is part of the campaign . The bag carry an inscription *made in Biafra* the rally was meant also to showcase Biafra innovative prowess and production of Handbags both male and female as well

But such things are not new, whats so unusual this time?

Even when i was young, there was imported stuff and locally made stuff.

E full market.

utumunta: As this story unravels, facts are beginning to emerge that they are a political creation, deployed to secure victory for the incumbent governor at the last polls. They are asking him to honour the one-term agreement reached with them and that is what has caused us these men.
I hope this does not become another boko haram.

I wonder why, in that country, every single thing is directly traceable to politics?

talktimi: niger delta militants killed 19 police officers doesn't mean MEND pulled the hit, I've told you before, stop talking about things you know nothing about. Ask politely if you need information and stop exhibiting your daftness.

PS ; I never said anything about killing the Egon or any other peoples, but your blind stvpidity is hiding the fact that you're actually the bigot here. Well, what does one expect from someone who only has b*alls behind the security of a computer screen ?

Killing of police officers is more associated with mend elements, stop lying.

That looks like a bulletproof vest, but nigerians will call it charms.

i dont know why people like to draw a line in the sand and dare others to cross it.

for goodness sake, there is a middle ground and stop disturbing folks all the time!!!!!

this is why nigeria does not progress.

all this unnecessary aggravo and constant irritability is an effect of outside exposure i'm sure.

^do you have some issues which need addressing?

you're quoting me why?

abi nkan se e ni?

tintingz: we are talking of school assembly, these one is saying boko haram

Do you even know what 'boko' 'haram' means?

Did you not finish school or you're still seeking admission, you seem to have time on your hands.

tintingz: Shouting ''in Jesus name'' like lost sheep should be ban during assembly period...

Imagine from monday to thurday claping and screaming Jesus Jesus Jesus!! It is only on fridays we hear Allah's name

Shouting God like Allah or Eloim or Olorun name is general and better.

I think you are exaggerating anyways.

In any case, returning schools to their respective missions may be the only way forward, and in addition, will raise the constantly falling jamb and waec scores.

As per your last sentence, the song father abraham has many sons, a common song in nigerian schools, is Jesus mentioned there?

I dont know why some of you like to play oversabi as if you're wiser than those who went before you.

^ i'm not following you.

The thread is about soyinka's gods, yet you're differentiating between religion and non-religion.

I assume your specific grouse is with the christian religion, since the original post features totems of a religion.

the figure is probably higher than that.

God bless their hearts, some of us had forefathers who learned under trees and in mud huts, yet they still went on to be great achievers, eschewing all the permanent bad belle and self destructive behaviour so endemic around here these days.

solomon111: The FCT is a federal govt domain.
Unlike the niger-delta which is a collection of states,the FCT is our seat of power and should reflect all Nigerians.

well, too bad if you feel it does not.

deal with it.

so?

what are you going to do about it?

na your papa land?

some of you are better off stuck in sexuality section, for real, waanking off to the myriads of p.ornography there. At least you'll be too busy applying your vaseline, to disturb others with your personal issues!

Monicasque: wow i am soooo shocked at my self. i can't blv i am the one who just wrote all this. i actually never understood how i felt until a moment ago. wow and i am suddendly so calm. thanks nairaland for helping me see that i have a problem. i am really going to seek help. wooooow. now i hope you guys can see how important this forum is as for some of us its eye opening and life changing. thank you guys . from the bottom of my heart

yorubas say ibi ere l'ati nmo ooto oro.

meaning even though you may feel you're typing in jest, or to get people riled up, it doesnt change the fact that you have a deep resentment towards whoever you consider a father figure. Vice versa goes for the women-bashing males.


at some stage, it will be certifiable, just saying.

^what you and the s.tupid coward who took the so-called pic, need to do, is pack your useless selves and get out of the country.

is someone forcing you to stay?

go to ghana and claim refugee.

scholarships for the kids please, up to college level.

militants are being sponsored overseas, assist the aforementioned kids first before you start awarding choice plots of land in abuja to kidnappers and armed robbers.

in addition, if the leaders would fast or drink garri occasionally, the savings on that N1 billion monthly food bill would be quite significant.

Ijaw people, for God's sake, assist your brother to have a good governance.


all these shrines and all sorts of devilish activities are not the way to go.

Nigeria is a third world country, you are adding to the constant suffering with all this demon worship.

stop comparing yourselves to abroad- they are different from you!


If gej is the best you can produce (as evidenced by his being the candidate you put forward for Aso rock), then help him improve your image!

^ if you had paid attention under the tree (same tree your mates attended school and yet still made something of their lives today, unlike you}, you'd know how to start a thread for any rubbish you feel a need to engage in.

babyosisi: The mods should be happy
See how the thread has grown and you are here too
I should be thanked for giving life to a moribund thread

Ok make una continue

you seem very happy, like the cat that got the cream.

are your fellow cowards planning another "ambush"?

I see you're now opening mouth to address me anyhow, you don get wings.

interesting.

Monicasque: tooooo much. the dude decided to die when i was 5years old and lv my mother to struggle so i hate him very much for all that i went through in life. if he would have stuck around and see me grow, i would not have soo much anger in me. i even got to an extend where i looked for the father figure in romantic relationships bcoz the bastard who gave birth to me was not around and not there for me growing up so sue me for feeling the way i do. i hate men period and its even worse coz all these bastard seem to just know how to make kids and lv the baby mommas to raise them alone. men will always be dogs to me and nothing can change that

Women who do not hate their fathers, generally do not hate men.


Women who PREFER to hate males, generally have issues with their present or absentee fathers.

Anybody who feels the armchair chatter on nl can replace the research done by trained professionals who were in a closer time frame to the events under discussion, is probably a terrorist, armed robber or other type of trained criminal trying to feel funky and grab land.

Doesnt new rule# 1 say dont derail or tribalize threads?

Are the moderators sleeping?

Nobody cares who or what these people are.

The fact is all these little, large or medium groups should stop disturbing people with their petty or major grievances which lack beginning, end and coherence.

Any group which isnt happy with nigeria should pack their bags and migrate elsewhere, after all, did your forefathers not migrate to your present location from somewhere?

Ghana, kenya, tanzania, south africa, gambia, cameroon etc are all more developed than nigeria, why not move to those places.

holy sina: Babyosis and berem, you guy have got me laughing seriously. But de man's name is funny in Igbo language, wait o, is that his real name! Aturu Olaniyi!! Lwkmh

You will soon laugh out of the other side of your mouth, so laugh very well.

pato station: Yes ooo! I almost got killed by those bastards for snapping them while harrassing okada drivers. My lawyer even told me to thank my stars that it was a public place. Otherwise they would have wasted me instead of protecting me.

I thought okadas were banned?

So, you're saying the police didnt lock you up for snapping them without their permission.

Typically nigerian, everything is left alone, what a pity.

Ijaw people, for God's sake, help your brother have a good government now?

He is the one representing you up there, do not allow his legacy to enter the annals of infamy.

^ do you hate your father?

Women.
