Literature › Re: Do Nigerians Read/Buy Comic Books? by tpia5:
marjo: Most don't as already stated. Does anyone remember Asterix and Obelix, Tintin, Archie, Safest Hands in Soccer (a footie mag) and all the marvel comics to mention a few. i read them all.
i know asterix and obelix [i have a few copies of these somewhere for nostalgic reasons], did the rounds with archie as a kid [i still see the comic books every so often in stores].

marvel comics were almost like gold in the day. Very valuable reading, we were always eager to catch the upcoming issues.

not familiar with the soccer thingy, but i know tintin.

Acidosis: ...forseen evidence.
Sorry to interrupt, but i think you need to use the word "some".

I hardly ever send pms, dont even know how the thing works.

I suppose YOU use it a lot, but still doesnt make for generalization.

Rich men can also be just as ruthless as poor ones.

These things depend on personality, environment and individual upbringing.

He was tired, obviously.

Btw, what did he do, i never did bother checking.

And, he's probably in the pool of future presidents, most of them usually spend some time in jail beforehand, in nigeria. Not sure why.

ferhyntorlah: Thank you very much for this statement. I'm want to believe the babe never even step foot for Nigeria.

To me, she's Nigerian only by name and not by Nationality. She's 100% Filipino, just darker.
I doubt she knows anything about nigeria.

Her dad was away for 30 years and it doesnt seem like he ever took his kids there, i assume.

The lady didnt even put her yoruba name, maybe her dad didnt give her one.
Fashion › Re: Victoria Oke Is Philipines' Miss Dinagyang 2013 by tpia5: 9:50pm On Feb 02, 2013
OkparaIgbo: Ok I couldn't really bother going through all that however I based my judgement on her looks and her names Emily Victoria seeing that the Igbo's have been always accused in this forum of giving their kids english names.. wink
Ok, we hear you, you are funny, anything else?

Since abeokuta is supposedly igbo anyway, if her dad is from there then she's igbo, not so?

Just shut up!!!!!!

Whichever name anyone is bearing, how does that concern you or add value to your pathetic life.
Nairaland General › Re: ....... by tpia5: 7:44pm On Feb 02, 2013
Your name, like your life, is whatever you make of it.

You people should stop opening threads to attack or mention people's names anyhow, or else may satan your master deal with you in a way you will learn from.

As per beauty pagaeant winners, he who pays the piper dictates the tune.

OkparaIgbo: I haven't seen any evidence to say she is of Yoruba decent and I will like someone including the person claiming facebook to provide one. However I guess Oke is a universal name and so could easily be claimed by any tribe and also as already said here she looks Igbo, lil wonder I thought she was. cheesy In anycase my Igbo sisters are known all around as beauty peagant winners and should keep repping.! One Igbo son is definitely very proud of you lot. wink If she turns out to be from somewhere else then Kudos to her.. smiley

Reminds me of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sozwdHBC8mU
Her dad is yoruba (olufunso oke). Olufunso is a yoruba name.

The mixed look is typically identified with igbos, yet you folks keep insisting you're not mixed.

Usually, i've noticed igbos dont really like to acknowledge foreign input when it comes to appearance, meaning someone who has mixed heritage ( and looks it), will most likely simply have to be identified as igbo only as per facie.

It might be a general thing in nigeria, i guess.

Is she a nler?

If yes, she should reveal her handle plz, unless its not advisable for her to do so.

Nigeria the worst place to be born indeed.
Fashion › Re: Victoria Oke Is Philipines' Miss Dinagyang 2013 by tpia5: 6:11pm On Feb 02, 2013
OkparaIgbo: My beautiful Igbo sisters representing.! smiley Ndi-Igbo hails you, Nigeria hails you too.. wink
Her dad is yoruba so technically, she's of yoruba descent.

However, she does look igbo, so i can see why you thought she was.
Fashion › Re: Victoria Oke Is Philipines' Miss Dinagyang 2013 by tpia5: 5:34pm On Feb 02, 2013
Yes, she does look somehow igbo in the photos, yet you folks claim you're not mixed.
Fashion › Re: Victoria Oke Is Philipines' Miss Dinagyang 2013 by tpia5: 4:47pm On Feb 02, 2013
She kind of looks like a typical nigerian, in most of the pix.

Most of these competitions usually go to mixed people if blacks are slated to win, its a showbiz thing.

[quote author=Wise-talk]Goodnews! From grass to grace. She is not too popular, but I guess she is connected. In life, you don't need too many people, you just need one high flyer to lend you some wings to ascend to somewhere.[/quote]Many of the people we see on tv, are actually from connected families.

Most times, its NOT a rags to riches story, never mind the intention of the media to make it appear that way.

So, you're right.

No free gift, its give and take, otun we osi, osi we otun, oun lowo fin mo.
