its getting too frequent now.

^^well, compare the number of males in general on nl, to the number of females before drawing conclusions.

majority of the sections are male dominated.

including romance.

the only place with more females is maybe fashion.

bright007: Oh!beautiful story.
Pls on what foothold did he hang d chain?
Also where is d chain now?
chains signify slavery ie the chains used to bind the slaves.


therefore, the foothold would be one of the states supplying the slaves, or else the areas manufacturing the chains.

shymmex: Denied visa from a country I don't need a visa to travel to, how ignorant can you be?

I guess it's mid-life crisis, oh hag...smfh.. grin

Have you taken your ritalin dosage? grin
unlike you, i wasnt raised by a monkey.

hence, you'll notice i edited my post where i spelt out your baboon lineage for you, since you felt you're a chimpanzee.


i wont derail the thread even though your frustrated life and decrepit old age makes you mental. wink

i do pity your old hag of a mother though- the way you curse her out online speaks volumes about your impotent character. grin

always fighting all over nl- are you sure you're male because you seem more like a s.hemale cheesy

i think you have some foes waiting for you in romance and culture sections- why not go and face them or are you scared.
Romance › Re: Suffering For The Sins Of Your Parents. by tpia5:
lawrenzoo: My Brother, years back, my mother fell in Love with a guy so deep and they both loved themselves, they were at the peak of their wedding plan until the whole thing got scattered by my father who used charm to force my mum to bed and married her which is a sin. That is why I am so scared of my present relationship right now, she is a good girl and I am a good guy. I believe in a faithful relationship and my heart is so much in it but the question is, I hope the sin of my father will not be visited on me by allowing someone else to take her away from me.
few questions for you:

1. who told you your father used charms to marry your mum? Not saying it doesnt happen, just asking where you got the information.

2. How long did the marriage last?

3. what happened to the first guy? Did he go on to marry someone else?

4. was he okay with whoever he married eventually, or did he remain bitter at your father?

5. whoever told you such- what was their motive in doing so?

6. How many years after the incident of charms, were you told of it?

7. Give more details on how the charms were used to force your mum into bed.

8. what was your mum's relationship with your dad before he used the charms to get her. Was he a friend, stranger, boyfriend, what exactly?



your answers would be much appreciated.

I need to have more information before i can give an opinion on this matter.

bily: Biblically, curses or punishment for sins could be generational, typical example is the curse upon Adam and eve. So this is the general trend of sins perpetuated by our parents or typical bloodline.

Having said that, the Bible makes it clear that there is a new covenant that supersedes the old system. in this new system, we have an understanding that "cursed is He who was hung on a tree (Christ)" meaning HE has taken all the curses on our behalf. We also understand He gives us a clean slate by making our "scarlet sins as white as snow".

When you begin to walk in the light of the new system, u are called BLESSED just like the story where a king told a prophet to curse the Lords children and when the prophet was about to curse them, he came out and declared "these ones the Lord has BLESSED and I CANNOT REVERSE it"

So with this I believe the sins of our parents will not have generational effect on us if we are in Christ. This is Africa and especially in Nigeria any little challenge in life people will say you should go for deliverance that someone somewhere or one dead ancestral curse is worrying you.Christians have given so much power to the devil and Africa magic is not helping maters and it now seems like God is less powerful.people actually fear evil more than fearing God.

In this life they'll always be UPS and downs cos there is a time and season for everything doesn't necessarily mean a curse is in effect.

does that then mean we should live a careless life? No life is about creating a balance that is why "wisdom is the principal thing and it's profitable to direct. Christians are not perfect(but striving towards it by His grace) and we will make mistakes or sin from time to time andwe should be ready to accept responsibility for our actions but not that person go now dey live in fear cos of Werin ya papa or grandpa Don do wey you no even sabi, Dat one Na Lie Abeg!
you're right but the issue is two, three or more fold.

there's a spiritual aspect, and there's a physical aspect dealing with our physical lives.

there's no vacuum in nature, and sins of the past have a way of catching up with the present.

God makes it rain on both the just and unjust, and this shows its not everything that we humans can understand.

Romance › Re: Romantic Ladies by tpia5: 6:21am On Aug 08, 2012
[quote author=Adeniyi A.]i've noticed that ladies are always more clinged on to d romance section than any other sections.
on the contrary, when u get to the politics section, na my guys u go see 'halaring' ,rarely will u see ladies.
just thinking loud, are ladies more romantic than men?
What is bn 'romantic' itself?[/quote]you're wrong.

the ratio of men to women in romance section is about the same.

politics section is dominated by men but there's still maybe 30% women there.

actually, its possible there are more men than women in romance section.

ladeeinwaiting6: This is how he got me. He said his father was from Trinadad and his mother was from Florida. So I figured it would kinda be like myself, my mother is from the northern states and my father is from the southern states. My father had an accent even though he lived longer in the northern states than in the south. I picked up the accent just by being exposed to him so I went with his theory. Since this man had an accent and he was convincing with it.
trinidad accent is different from the african one though.


and if your dad was black [ie AA], his accent would still reflect the same- the black accent is a southern one regardless of location.

here's a nigerian accent @ 0.10:

The Ebiras have traditionally and historically been linked to the Uthman Dan Fodio Jihad movement. They (Ebiras) were conscripted from Chad as mercenaries in the Islamic expansion of northern and central Nigeria. After the Jihad slowed down (due to a lack of effective strategy in expanding further south due to thick jungle and tse-tse fly) the Ebiras were settled in their current enclave by the caliphate.
your claim actually makes sense (explains their looks), but most sources i found, dont really mention any chad links. They claim kinship with the Attah of Ida instead.





can you post more info on where you got yours from.



the Ebiras were settled in their current enclave by the caliphate.
the caliphate or the british?
