@ all

idris is an arabic name, but in nigeria it would most likely be more specific to certain regions. ie more common there.

eg if you meet a nigerian named jimoh, the person is likely to be yoruba or midwest, while maimuna almost always is northern. Fatai would be yoruba-a maybe 95% chance.

though it seems yorubas are branching out of the traditional names now and taking other cultures' own.

Interesting a Nigerian Father, Wow Nigerians lay their seed everywhere. Lol
true shocked

he doesnt look very nigerian however.

he resembles his mum i guess- perhaps their genes are stronger. She also might be mixed, or maybe not.

anyone know where the name idris is from in nigeria? Kogi? huh

or the north? huh

its usually those areas whose biracial kids dont look nigerian. ie the kids tend to take after the non-nigerian side more.



with the long faces and all.

blazay, blazay give me your answer do.
I have kolo crazy finish and entered Aro all for the love of you.
It won't be a stylish marriage,
I can't afford a carriage.
But you'll look sweet,
Upon the seat,
Of a bicycle made for two.

fstranger, ystranger, here is your answer true.
I'm not crazy all for the love of you.
There won't be any marriage,
If you can't afford a carriage.
'Cause I'll be switched,
If I get hitched,
On a bicycle built for two!"

if i were to adopt, it would probaby be yoruba, tuareg or someone from a coastal region, perhaps.

still thinking about it.

i've been pressuring my mum to adopt someone but she's very reluctant because of her health and past experiences which werent too good. sad

hard working means working hard, as in, doing a lot of legwork and actually getting into the nitty gritty of things.

not just signing papers.

so, when comparing someone to fashola, show him actually interacting with the regular folks same way fashola is doing.

and btw do not insult either governor with meaningless chatter.

not saying rochas isnt trying however. [btw are there any photos of him available? huh]

however, a closer look would cast some doubt:

ababda:
Well, they are not Asian Tpia! They consider themselves simply Melanesians, and being simply themselves according to their customs, lanuage and tribes. There are many of them on line with their own forums, and creating their own youtube videos, so i suggest you converse with them, you may learn a great deal from them, i know i have.
melanin+asian = black asian or melanasian.

having a darker skin colour doesnt make them[b] not [/b] asian.

some indians are darker than they are.

asian doesnt only mean chinese.

i get your point though and they probably would not like being called simply asian due to various reasons.

in polygamous societies, a woman has no societal support in the event of a divorce, and as such, may go on to other polygamous marriages.


because her position is very precarious without a man.

though your grandma's story is very recent, if it was the 90s.

was she not old because my own grandmas would have been >75 at that time.

in my posts, i was referring to younger, unmarried single women who have never experienced polygamy personally or directly when growing up.
