faith, which is the spiritual aspect manifested in or by works.

works are physical, dealing with earthly things.

I can still remember waking up crying in the middle of the night.

hmm, i'd check the family background for a history of depressive illnesses.

he might have needed professional help, imo.

The "hard truth" is if Igbo people had a decision to domineer Cross River they'd do it

dont be fooled by the smiley faces and "gentle" demeanor you think you're seeing over there.


if they havent been dominated by igbos before now, what do you think prevented that?

meaning if they're so easy to domineer then why hasnt it happened yet.

sometimes people can think they're the hunter when in actual fact they're the hunted.

Majority of the shortest males usually open threads over there.
It would be hard to find them anywhere else.
Lmao.

And where is it written that only hausas can be northerners?

^I'm not sure women drive in afghanistan.

I mean after ten years of dating then marry her regardless if you're doing so out of pity.

Of course if you date someone for ten years then you should marry her but in actual fact very few men do that.

And a woamn should also not let a man date her for more than two or three years without marriage, if she's the marrying type.

Thread should be in romance section btw.

Wow that's amazing.

@ topic

is delta also having an official mourning?

his mum was from there- not sure which town. 

i'm guessing probably asaba or ogwashi ukwu because those areas have strong igbo links.

might be tricky sha, due to the interpersonal or intra-ethnic dynamics of the region.

^^you know very little about nigeria so i'd advise you to stick to learning about your hometown instead of putting mouth in things that dont concern you.

hmm, well the fact remains they all lived to a ripe old age despite the many curses nigerians rain on them. . . . . . . . .

^^when are we going to see your photo so i can tell you if you likely have some non-nigerian or non-black relatives somewhere.

@ topic

well, maybe, maybe not.


sounds like the secession had been in the works for sometime, or how did it happen so fast after the pogroms.

would there still have been a secession without the pogrom?


there was some intense intrigue chess playing going on at that time which is yet to be figured out.

obviously a lot of nigerians have mixed ancestry which they may or may not be aware of, but i believe the incidence is higher as you head towards the east [includes midwest].

northerners also have mixed ancestry but i dont think they're unaware of it for the most part.


the southern one is probably from white/arab/non-black males in times past, hence the silence.

if the non-black admixture were from the mother, it would be more acknowledged.

^^really.

@ photo

i suppose some will say philip effiong's wife isnt mixed?

another black nigerian of unacknowledged mixed ancestry?

and effiong himself wasnt mixed?

seriously, the number of non-blacks and mixed people involved in that war was astounding.

that olokun head looks very nice with the blue background.

quite apt imo, since olokun is linked to the sea.

@ topic

why are women allowed to drive in some muslim countries but not in others?

what exactly in the Koran addresses this issue.

note- there are two questions, not one.

at the age of 25years, when many at his age were busy carrying catapult, chasing birds and rats

sounds like some nlers wey no know say na small pikin of 4 years suppose do that kain thing.


most of these bird and rat chasers are in romance section.

**rant over**

i dont understand the write up.

did gov peter obi leave office for uwazurike? Why is he delivering messages for him?

who exactly is making the pronouncements on ojukwu's death, or is there a power struggle going on.

and where is the governor's trained PR representative to make statements on the governor's behalf.

i really dont know why seun the site admin is just bent on constantly giving nigeria a bad name by allowing these types of threads.

and he knows its not only nigerians browsing nl. Most non-nigerians are silent- they just read and dont post.

what impression are you nigerians giving others about yourselves when you continually display this mentality?

Banjo refused to follow his instructions to the latter but choose to bargain with Yoruba leaders

is banjo not a yoruba name?

did muritala the northerner not come down in a huff to liberate his hometown during that same period?

i could be wrong, but i think the link anthropologists of that time were looking for, was the one between ancient egypt [or africa] and the new world civilizations [ie the pyramids, calendars, religion, etc].


now, its possible the link in question was from africa, but it could also have gone through asia.

or run concurrently.


but there was a theory back then, about a proto-atlantean civilization somewhere between the west african and new world coasts.

of course, like the city of gold and the alchemists' base metal, it was never found, but there could be another explanation.

cant really understand the overall game plan here.

how many "republics" was nigeria going to be broken into?

up to 10?

neither do i see how nigeria's neighbours on every side wouldnt have just stepped in and snapped up annexed whichever portion was closest to them after yall had decimated each other to the necessary levels.

^^if you need more instances where yorubas are being attacked and bashed while folks of your ilk conveniently look the other way, i can supply you with some relevant threads.

^^

1. reread the first sentence of the original post. I think you meant to address the op.

2. never heard of dawodu being a title. I'd need some more solid evidence besides wiki and the one link.

3. anyone who is aware of such should please let the rest of us know.

Do you know who shot the nigerian soldier that killed nzeogwu after his capture

always the same story with "revolutions".

leave no trail aka evidence.

they even claim that naija men are even ugly

and so?

if you're not ugly then that shouldnt bother you.

since it does, then connect the dots.

dont nigerian women get more bashing than that from various frogs, baboons and gorillas around here.
