FamilyWhat Is The Responsibility Of The Nigerian Woman Towards Mixed Marriages? by tpiar(op): 5:47pm On Dec 24, 2015
huh

when a Nigerian man marries/dates a woman from a different tribe, ethnicity, race or country than his, what is supposed to be the responsibility of other Nigerian women towards the wife? huh

imo, I dont see why I should be involved in people's personal lives per se, but it seems couples in the unions expect something of the women of their husband's ethnic circle. I'd have thought the husband's friends or associates should be the people involved with their union, not the general public even if they are from the same place or area or tribe.

what are your thoughts or rules of conduct here?

I have also noticed a general attitude, sort of accusatory, whereby the non Nigerian spouse seems to project some kind of blame on the husband's ethnicities who are female. Likewise, the husband sometimes attacks other females with the accusation they do not want him to date elsewhere.

I am often baffled by such, would like to hear from folks.

Not saying there are no people who are not seriously against inter marriage even within the same ethnicity o.

I didnt know youvhad to be a linguist to show interest in Yoruba language and culture or to comment or ask for information from those that know.

If thats the case the Cubans and Puerto Ricans and Bahians should first get tutoring and be certified in linguistics before they can explore why they share similarities and cognates in culture and rites with Yoruba. Do you disagree?

A Deacon, Mr Ogunyoye...i forgot his first name, i think Modupe. who posesses credentials in all those fields you listed, plus more.....wrote a book, not mentioning various scholarship articles and appearances made by him, confirming your fears. Stop being afraid, no Arab can Islamize Yorubaland and no Hebrew can turn us into Jews. Even DNA research concludes that Yoruba has presence in Eurasia...

Are you more knowledgable than these researchers? Arr you more knowledgable than Mr Oduyoye? If you are please Id love to learn from your scholarship. Whats the name of your book?
why dont you allow non Yoruba ethnicities to discuss and define their own history, unless you are one? huh

Yoruba religion is different from Yoruba as an ethnicity.

EducationRe: Aaua's First Class Graduates Offered Automatic Employment by tpiar: 3:57pm On Dec 24, 2015
Fynestboi:
The Executive Governor of Ondo State, Dr Olusegun Mimiko has today announced automatic employment offer to willing best graduates of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba Akoko.

During the conferment of Degrees and Award/Prizes at the 6th Convocation ceremony of the institution which held at OBJ Hall, the governor who is an alumnus of Obafemi Awolowo University admitted that it is the duty of the government to encourage graduands with brilliant academic performance and as such offered the First Class students automatic employment. He further stressed the need for the graduands to keep aiming high even as he wishes them well as they go into the labour market.

"Its is the responsibility of government to encourage achievements of brilliant minds. I am happy to announce automatic employment to willing best graduates to Ondo State Civil Service.

"I congratulate the graduands and i wish them well as they go into the labour market."

It will be recalled the Obafemi Awolowo University Vice Chancellor, Prof. Bamitale Omole in what seems like a contrasting decision announced the stop of automatic employment for graduands who make First Class honours from the university.

You claim not to know he is ungodly?

He is a fellowship leader yet impregnated you before marriage and you still believe he was godly. Either you are deceiving us or you are deceiving yourself.

Your parents had a reason before they told you it is not compulsory to marry him because you became pregnant. As usual with the youths, you neglected the wisdom in their advice.

I'm not blaming you for anything, only opposed to the fact that you want us to believe you had no idea he was ungodly despite committing fornication without repentance with you.

number of children was 6 to 7 children
there's actually no accurate way of calculating the number of children.

Girls were not mentioned, for example, and all male offspring.

however, Adam was either still alive or had just passed away during that time.

I'm not dismissing your claim but it sounds untrue and concocted.

With the rate at which guys buttlick women, as evident on nairaland and with the growing number of sex starved guys out there, why would a lady go through all these hassle just to conceive. I mean a good looking lady can easily bed any of her numerous admirers without protection thus conceive.

maybe the admirers are bus conductors, etc.

LiteratureRe: Post A Quote From A Book You're Reading or Have Read. Include the Book Title. by tpiar: 2:12am On Dec 24, 2015
There have been some ancients and some moderns who have maintained the contrary view about mathematics, condemning it as completely useless and as contributing nothing to human life. Some people attack mathematics thus : ' If the end for whose sake philosophers say we ought to study it is useless, much more must the study itself be vain. Now about the end all who are thought to have attained the greatest precision in mathematics are pretty much agreed. Some say the end is the knowledge of injustice and justice, of evil and good, which they think akin to geometry and the kindred sciences ; others think the end is wisdom with regard to nature and the like — the kind of wisdom introduced by the schools of Anaxagoras and Parmenides. He who is to consider these matters must therefore not fail to observe that all things
good and useful for human life depend on use and action, not on mere knowledge. We become healthy not by knowing the things that produce health but by applying them to our bodies ; we become wealthy not by knowing wealth but by possessing much substance; most important of all, we live well not by knowing something but by doing well ; for this is true well-being. It follows that philosophy too, if it is to be profitable, must be either a doing of good things or useful as a means to such acts. Now, that neither philosophy nor any other of the aforesaid sciences is a doing of actions is clear to all ; that it is not useful as a means to action can be seen from what follows. We have the best example in the
difference between the sciences akin to philosophy and the doctrines that come under them. Take the things that geometers study by way of demonstration ; we do not see them capable of doing any of these things. Land-surveyors can divide an estate, they can by virtue of experience deal with all the other properties of areas and regions ; but those who concern themselves with mathematical proofs know
how they ought to act, but cannot act. The same is true of music and of all the other arts in which the role of knowledge is distinct from that of experience. For those who have studied the proofs and syllogisms about harmony and such- like matters are (like the philosophers) ccustomed to speculation but take no part in practice; if perchance they can handle any of these matters practically, when they have learned the proofs they at once, as if on purpose, do their jobs worse. On the other hand, those who do not know the theories, but have become habituated by training and hold sound opinions, are altogether superior for practical purposes. So too with regard to astronomical subjects — the sun, the
moon, and the other stars — those who have studied the theoretical explanations know nothing that is useful to man- kind, while those who have what these others call the navigational sciences can foretell for us storms, winds, and many other phenomena. Thus such sciences will be completely useless for practical purposes, and if they fall short of correct practice the love of learning misses the greatest goods.'
