Culture › Re: Most Plausible Reason Why Some Binis and Igbos Have Fairer Skin Colour by tpia5: 2:35am On Jun 19, 2012
PhysicsQED: I actually wanted some specifics about "who" "where" and why you thought they looked mixed. Not "some places here and there" and not an assertion of "obviously mixed" without any elaboration on what's so "obviously" mixed about them.

The fact that the group in that area that seems (from available evidence) to have had the most interaction with the Portuguese - the Bini - is darkskinned on average and rarely light compared to some other Nigerian groups should tell you that the OP's theory has basically nothing going for it. And as I said before, there are blacks in other places in Africa such as southern Sudan who seem to be clearly darker on average than some allegedly "unmixed" black groups in West Africa, so we already know that there's a natural variation in skin color among black populations independent of mixing with non blacks and we'd need to base conjectures about groups being mixed on something more than just skin color.
the op specified light skin, but it doesnt mean light skin is the only indicator of non-black dna. Its just the easiest or most visible evidence, that's all.

Abagworo: If you are a Nigerian and you aren't stuck to your locality, you should have known Uromi and Ubiaja are towns in the Esan speaking part of Edo State. Up in the Northern part of Edo in the Etsako area, you might get some Fulani mix but that is all. Maybe you met one of such Fulani mixed families and concluded that Edo people are mixed.
are etsako and esan the only places you know? huh

chains typically are symbols for slavery, or capture.

so the chain legend probably means that.

Loveangel: Dnt be surprised no one actually askd.if u were single,wuld u marry her for any reason??
i doubt she absolutely could not find a young, single guy to marry her?
Celebrities › Re: Agbani Darego To Marry Timi Alaibe by tpia5: 2:05am On Jun 19, 2012
I know many single career ladies who earn up to N1m/MONTH that are seriously searching for a single guy
wow, this is serious. undecided

it cant be that they cant get a single guy- maybe they're searching for someone in their class.

being older doesnt mean a man will be a good husband.

i think the elephant in the room here is property, or inheritance.

same rationale behind young guys and their grandma's agemate, or whatever weirdness one sees these days.

now, having said all that, i think the op's story is a lie, as is typical here.


After he left, i discovered that he took 6 pieces of my jewelries and sold them
didnt you lift this from that k soul story?

the wife said he took her jewelry.

i just hope single and/or young ladies are learning to keep their legs closed, after reading these various horror stories that abound on nl.


are you seeing glimpses of a future which, God willing, can be avoided and may people not knowingly walk into a lion's mouth is my prayer.

everybody has good and bad photos.

bittyend: She doesn't look Nigerian. A naija girl will never be that good looking in this lifetime. Nigerian girls can't even win against ghana, ethiopia is on another level.
you obviously have no clue what a nigerian looks like.
Fashion › Re: Miss World 2012: Meet The Africans by tpia5: 8:49pm On Jun 18, 2012
there's something nigerian-ish about the face.

miss ethiopia looks nigerian.

what's with that weird pose and can we see other angles because its as if she or the photographer are trying to hide something.
Celebrities › Re: Agbani Darego To Marry Timi Alaibe by tpia5: 8:35pm On Jun 18, 2012
i just googled the man and saw all sorts.

hop she knows what she's doing if this is true?

hard to believe in the whole of nigeria, there was no eligible man for her to marry.
Celebrities › Re: Agbani Darego To Marry Timi Alaibe by tpia5: 8:30pm On Jun 18, 2012
wouldnt he be married if he's a politician?

where are his single brothers, cousins, relatives, etc?
