i think its quite obvious the child resembles tuface, unless people have no idea what tuface looks like. How can you tell after just 48hrs of child birth? Samblance only comes after a year darling. It's a myth that one can tell samblance of a child to the parent just after birth.sometimes the face can change as the baby grows, but no hard and fast rule. |
I was in a mall with my wife and my 6 year oldshouldnt she be arguing over toys and not makeup. anyway, I would throw the stuff in the trash later, assuming you dont want to cause a scene at the store. what kind of makeup btw- full war paint or just kiddie nail polish. |
the picture was taken immediately after birth [na wa, how did it get on the internet], and in the US, all babies have an ointment applied to their eyes immediately after delivery. not sure if this is also done in nigeria. this could explain the substance observed, though i'm not sure. |
the child resembles tuface. |
@ topic others have said it all. the african mentality na wa. lord have mercy. |
^males take note. |

Islamic arts museum, Doha [dont know where that is] https://homedesignsinterior.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Modern-Architecture-Islamic-Arts-Museum-Doha-01.jpg https://www.hellotravel.com/sites/default/files/museum-islamic-art-.jpg [img]http://2.bp..com/_vE18FYzrOqs/TOtH4MjMULI/AAAAAAAANOc/ZzV2XsXeT18/s1600/museum_islamic_art_imp081208_1.jpg[/img] |

I love those pictures from the North.i think the drier air of the north might be one of the reasons why their ancient buildings are better preserved, thus allowing for the transferring of basic design principles, across generations and also enabling them to better incorporate ancient designs with a modern touch, or into modern buildings. the atmosphere down south is wetter and more moisture-laden and this might make it a bit more diificult to preserve grand structures from olden days. |
tpia, why do you think the museum fits here^^the museum was built to showcase archeological findings from a 10th century Islamic palace and site in Cordoba, Spain. It incorporates the principles of Islamic architecture into it's design. More info on it's concept and background: Medina Azahara (Arabic: المدينهُ الزهراء Madīnat az-Zahrā, meaning "brilliant town", "beautiful town", or "the town of Zahra" ) is the ruins of a vast, fortified Arab Muslim medieval palace-city built by Abd-ar-Rahman III al-Nasir, (912–961) Ummayad Caliph of Córdoba, and located on the western outskirts of Córdoba, Spain. It was an Arab Muslim medieval town and the de-facto capital of al-Andalus, or Muslim Spain, as the heart of the administration and government was within its walls. Built beginning in 936-940, the city included ceremonial reception halls, mosques, administrative and government offices, gardens, a mint, workshops, barracks, residences, and baths. Water was supplied through aqueducts.[1] The main reason for its construction was politico-ideological: the dignity of the Caliph required the establishment of a new city, a symbol of his power, imitating other Eastern Caliphates. Above all, it demonstrated his superiority over his great rivals, the Fatimids of Ifriqiya in Northern Africa.[citation needed] Legend also says it was built as a tribute to the favourite of the Caliph: Azahara http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medina_Azahara the archeological site in question, is right beside the museum and I believe findings from the site are taken directly there for analysis and display. |

^yes, they are. |
the Madinat al Zahra Museum in Cordoba, Spain. Situated in a palace city, the museum acts to display and interpret archeological findings from the tenth-century. The building, designed by Sobejano Architects, blends seamlessly into the site and the surrounding farmland: a series of rectangles composed of walls, patios and plantings which, taken together, seem more like a landscape than a building; something that would have to be experienced to be judged. Either way, it shows how the Islamic influence actually does spread beyond the Middle East, throughout history http://www.architizer.com/en_us/blog/dyn/2794/khan-looks-east/ |

https://islamicartsmagazine.com/images/uploads/05_Chandgaon_S.jpg [img]http://ahmadladhani.files./2010/05/06_chandgaon.jpg[/img] The Chandgaon Mosque in Chittagong, Bangladesh, offers a modern take on the Mosque that maintains the essentials. The building contains large circular openings above that let in light during the day and light out at night, becoming a “beacon” for the area (most overused architecture word ever!). Of course, this fulfills the community criteria, as it is an integral gathering space. And unlike many socially minded projects, it’s pretty. Designed by Kashef Mahboob Chowdhury in 2007, the building uses light as its main architectural feature, moving away from traditional ornamentation. Here the Islamic influence is a bit more direct. http://www.architizer.com/en_us/blog/dyn/2794/khan-looks-east/ |
most of these are from Kano, i think: [img]http://3.bp..com/_TVZzV61jies/SfnWkj5tntI/AAAAAAAAAGY/hpYUS-a93aA/s1600/Taditional%2BHausa%2BArchitecture%2B1.jpg[/img] https://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/01/a9/b8/d4/outside-the-quarters.jpg https://static.newworldencyclopedia.org/thumb/7/78/Kanogate.jpg/180px-Kanogate.jpg |
^^that sounds like misinformation imo. in any case, i opened a thread on this same topic last year but i really cant be bothered digging through this but who i like or dont like isnt really important since my opinion isnt supposed to be what people base their lives on. regardless what my personal preferences are, i dont think anyone will see me endlessly knocking others because they arent what i regard as "my personal ideal" since God wasnt s.tupid when He created everyone different. He has his reasons, which I respect even if i dont understand them. whether dark, light or medium - character carries more weight than the outward appearance, else AA males would be second to none when it comes to dating and relationships. i'm overfamiliar with light, so that's why light doesnt trip me that much, but it doesnt mean i knock all light skinned men. And neither should it mean someone should take my opinion as gospel wthout considering context. |
can they please stop sending non-indigenes to these areas for goodness sake. didnt we go through the same scenario the other time when they said they didnt want a non-indigene as uniben vice chancellor? ![]() abeg put their own people there and let us hear word- who has time to be reading recycled news every day? whoever is in charge of these things should use wisdom in such cases nah? Is it by force to send outsiders there? |
how do we know these men are in fact, nigerian. its quite possible some of them arent. but in any case, they're getting far too much publicity imo. na dem sabi- after all some are even marrying men in a bid to get out of wherever they say they're from. its their life. |
