MrsChima:
I have inlaws that are married to Yorubas (3) out of 8 and they tells me the men are very romantic and skilled with words.

are your in laws Igbo?

have several Yoruba friends...romance seems to be a desired passover with them...not sure if it is a tribal thing but it's noticeable.

in what way?

I think most Nigerian men are sweet talkers, as in while dating, but then, are other males not also the same way?

Nigerian men don't even do all the flower and chocolates stuff as much as non Nigerians.

Unless being very direct about romping in the hay is considered romantic.

it depends on what type of demographic they are looking for, or which demographic they want to reach.

it seems somewhere like google, for example, hires mostly younger, single and maybe nerdy/party loving types.


however, the movie I watched recently, showcased an employer who was looking for someone with a high debt profile, family oriented and mature.

so, it depends.

pepper soup has other things besides pepper though.


you can add seeds, etc.

there's this long flower that people use to make stew (in its dried form), I cant remember the name, does anyone know it?

what are the different types of peppersoup and mode of preparation.

I don't think federal universities are that expensive.

private universities cost more.

what at Goat mea, ponmo, intestines like saki and co, are they lean meat

I thought these were considered leaner than beef.

Do you call that humour?

Youpele52:
"The blacker the berry the sweeter the juice"

It's a line from Kendrick Lamar rap song "The blacker the berry"

Think it's a typo or he probably missed it

Its not a typo, its cultic language.

He can't spell juice?

ogb5:
The agitation for delta state did not start during the Babangida regime as postulated in this write-up.

The land procured at Osubi for the creation of the Delta state capital is still state government property till date.

Request for a Delta state, with a capital around Warri/ Effurun and Osubi axis was already in existence in the 70s.

The Itsekiri's opposed the the citing of the state capital at anywhere near Warri, fearing it will reduce the dominance of the Olu and also force them to lose land to the state.

And for correction, Babangida chose Asaba as state capital because his wife was from Asaba, that was the genesis of the bad blood towards Asaba. A place like Kwale would have been far better than Asaba as state capital.

Did he say his reason for choosing Asaba was because his wife was from there?

So. . . . . . . . . .

What's funny about it?

The lack of humour on these boards is actually a cause for concern.

So many dry jokes and unfunny anecdotes, one wonders what is going on.


Is humour a lost art?

Why is the op switching between genders?

Very bad and humourless joke.

I see nothing funny in a security threat.

Joblessness.

Why so many criminals and ne'er do wells on nl?

Do we blame gej for this?

Rubbish.

do you mean how many of the man or woman's partners have passed on?

could also be referring to the island of reunion i guess.

Plane crash in Kano marks the beginning of a decade of plane crashes in 21st century Nigeria.

Sibrah:
Record shows that the average fed uni is more expensive than private uni.

i dont see how that's possible.

do you have any evidence?

T3Amo:
. . . . . .

are you in an interracial/inter-ethnic relationship?

your user id suggests that, and in addition, you have some topics about such.

remsonik:
Well I gave two scenarios up there.
I only wanted people to share their thoughts on the workability of this types of marriages in this part of the world

your choices are yours, you dont really need anybody's opinion for your decisions insofar as you are not violating any ethical or moral codes.

live and let live.

Kachisbarbie:
.

All that matters to him(the older man) is that they have a beautiful/intelligent woman to call their own.
They would practically do your bidding.

this is rather insulting though, are you implying such older men lack sense despite being older?

their only reason for marrying someone would be because of beauty and cunningness of which the former can be found in practically anybody with a makeup kit?

we all know the state of the black family.

lord have mercy.

francizy:
There is this friend of mine that two of her sisters are married to Yoruba men. Now what do these guys see in the Igbo women? Ain't they scared that the Igbo women will help them get poor easily? Don't they feel like they may end up living in a parsimonious state just a few years after marriage? Or is it that these men are just naturally attracted to fair ladies? But if that is the case, then why do some still wanna date or marry the dark Igbo women? When you have answered all these questions then you may come to terms with the reasons why you guys like Igbo women.

don't say things you don't know because you saw just two Igbo people doing something and then you conclude all Igbo people do it.

isnt that what you just did only the other way round?

Another thing you must know is that Igbo women love Igbo men more and the stressing on the fact that Yoruba people are not restricted to marrying a particular tribe while other tribes are is just another myopic observation from someone else on this your thread. Igbos are free to marry other tribes as long as the man or woman in question is from a Christian home

in Igboland, your social status is closely linked to your marriage choices (for men).

It is very pronounced there, more than in the southwest.

stop trying to twist things plz.
