Bahamas95: Everyday you wake up just pray you and your loved ones don't have any emergency that would take you to a Nigerian hospital.
When e happen na grammar dem go blow for your head.
Better still don't be the source of another man's sorrow. Anyone that has involved themself in destroying other people's lives in one way or the other nothing can stop their children from reaping their sour fruits, not even God because God will not break his own laws and principles. The evil that men do live after them, karma is real. The more people are determined to commit evil the more this world is being destroyed Not saying that is her case o, may she RIP. But Karma is real.
kullozone: What type of plant cures lethal snake bite, and can be found easily? It might be harder than you think
Onion eaten excessively will preserve the person's life at least till more help arrive. The person can grind it and drink it if it's too peperish. God forbid
Can someone knowledgeable educate us on remedy for snake bite in matters like this to save life. Be it medically, scientifically, herbally, native ways or otherwise. Thank you in advance!!!
That is why Google is there, she should have googled the natural remedies, ordinary onion eaten excessively immediately and continuously she might not have died, she would have pureed the onion, and drink continuously. I was bitten by a scorpion once and the first thing I did was Google, it was there I saw the remedy. It's very painful thing to have happened may her soul RIP.
essentialone: I have a neighbour whose 4 year old son usually call me "brother", sometimes I will even play ball with him, or teach him how to ride Bicycle. Later, I observed he became withdrawn. His name is Iremide. So, we all call him, Ire.
One day, I noticed that immediately I parked my car and was stepping down, the young champ was running towards me, and the mother screamed his name to come back to her. I actually thought it was because she didn't want him to run into an oncoming car. When she realized I was puzzled, she quickly told him to go inside and eat his food. When he mentioned he was not hungry, then she told him to shaa go inside and do his assignment. As a sharp guy, I took my cue from that, but needed to find out why.
Another day, he was outside when I was just returning from my Saturdays early morning workouts, and I jokingly asked him if he will like us to play ball, his response shocked me.
"No, I will not play with you. My Mummy says you are an Omo-Ibo". In that instance, the mother came out and heard him say it. She didn't know what to say. I just shook my head. I mean I know I could lecture her on the dangers of teaching children ethnic profiling, but how many Yorubas will I go around to teach that? Beyond all the fake smiles from Yoruba friends and neighbours, I have come to know that the hatred and resentment will probably last forever, and I have come to make peace with that Fact.
Everybody will be OK las las.
This is a lie, we Yorubas are too laid back to even think of these not to talk of doing it, we morals to our kids right from childhood not tribalism. Why are we accommodating if we were taught to hate from home. White lies
Max24: So, the Israelites are assistants of God? Be deceiving yourself. No wonder, Jews are said to be wise. They have indoctrinated your minds with their philosophy and their religion and succeeded in making you discard yours. Keep deceiving yourself. God appeared to Moses and children of Israel in thunders, how many times has he appeared to you?
He has appeared to me countless times through signs and wonders like He did to the Israelites, God is real even the followers of those idols will tell you that simple fact. Don't wait until you 'need' God before looking for Him. By the way I'm a Muslim, click on my handle here to read my story of conversation from Christianity to Islam
Max24: So you call the religion of your forefathers idolatry and other imported and introduced religions true religion? Who introduced the concepts of name calling others idolatry and paganism with negative connotations? The whites brainwashed us into deriding our own and branded the theirs as authentic. These are some of the issues late Fela sang about. It's high time we start asking questions too. These imported religions are not superior to what our forefathers did. There is nothing wrong in modernising traditional religion though like the whites and Arabs did to Christianity and Islam.
This is the type of argument you can use to win over a novice or natural man like you. For those of us that have been walking with God for decades we know better. For instance we know all human being are accountable to only one God and there is only one heaven and one hell. The idols our forefathers worshipped were created too and they don't have a separate heaven to take their followers to. Moreover, the fact that God chose a particular tribe to call humanity back to Him is not unexpected nor unreasonable because He cannot call every tribe on earth at once, what matters is that anyone that decided to come to Him sincerely through any of the Abrahamic religion will find Him and realise he or she has come home because all human being came from God.
Max24: Was Alafin Sango of old Oyo Empire a Christian or Muslim? I am a Christian but I believe our culture must be preserved.
Alaafin sango was a traditionalist because there was no other religion apart from traditional religion during his regn. His people too were traditionalist unlike nowadays where the majority of the people are no longer traditionalist and you think it's right for them to be reigned over by an idolater and a king should not have religious freedom. You are a Christian indeed. What will Jesus say.
The stools predate the western religions in Yorubaland and have always been based on our traditional religion.
I am a born again christian.
Jesus said 'Give to caesar what belongs to caesar'
If you cannot be a traditionalist, stay away from the Yoruba thrones.
You are not a born again Christian, when you belong to God you will not advocate for the devil. Yoruba kings from inception was never chosen from among the priests of any idol. They were chosen to represents the people whom are of diverse religion, the fact that they consult the oracle to select and install the king was because there was no other means of spiritual knowledge apart from the traditional method then. Saying that kingship should be reserved for idolaters is saying the land should be dedicated to the devil putting christians and Muslims at there mercy because the land is corrupt. Hausas install their kings using Islamic injunctions, all the kings in the Bible were elected through God why should Yoruba continue to serve Baal even after majority of Yorubas no longer worship idol. Kings should be allowed to serve God too. After all there is freedom of religion in Nigeria. Haba
ChristCee: Mr. Seun and mods of Nairaland, so much for religion tolerance. Just take a look at this number three
3 – Whoever does not regard the Mushrikeen (Christians, Jews and other Non-Muslims) as kaafirs, or doubts that they are kaafirs, or regards their way as correct, is a kaafir.
and his number 2
2 – Whoever sets up intermediaries between himself and Allaah, asks them to intercede, and puts his trust in them, is a kaafir (disbeliever) according to scholarly consensus.
Why is such a post not deleted yet? Would you be okay when Christians start doing the same?
A post is openly disrespecting the freedom of religion, the ideals of peaceful co-existence, national peace, unity and even our heritage (traditional religion and culture) and you condone it? So much for improvements to Nairaland. Please hire better mods.
What you quoted is actually very correct because the bible clearly states that Jesus came for the kaafirs or what do you think Gentiles mean. He clearly said he did not come for those who worship God but the sinners which translate to kafirs, and that is why christians are given grace through Jesus, they will not need grace if they are not doing it wrong somewhere. Islam offers holiness and peace, I used to be a pastor before being called into Islam, it's the only way to holiness without which no man will see God.
MrColdsweat: Spoken like my mom the morn key. Why is there a thug in the first place? Why is it okay for thugs to harass people in your land? I have been to all States in southern Nigeria, it is only your region you see millions of able bodied men, begging in the name of owomida
Online thug, all those ones in the south east motor parks and markets are what, the ones in your region are worst than in any other region, you think nobody goes to your region so you can lie, imagine? No thug in the south east indeed. Your nzogbu nzogbu and uncultured DNA killed that woman not any other thing. You just exhibit same here now.
This is why igbos will always call us coward while we Yorubas know it's just wisdom to not be aggressive and rude. Claiming rights and challenging a mad man will never end well. It's not about cowardice. Killing that tout will not bring back the woman, imagine if she had thought about all her children, husband, her fine clothes, money in the bank, her mother etc, she would realize it's not worth it to argue or drag those mad drug addicts even when they scatter her goods, wisdom is profitable to direct, may she rest in peace and may her killers be brought to book.
The last election has finally blown the cover of the ingrates, their online bull sh*t has been exposed to the world, the consequences will be reverberating and unending, more changes to be expected.
greggng: Why is it difficult to let the igbos go since you guys hate them this much ? A yoruba man will travel to Canada and UK and win elected position there ...An igbo man will do same over there ...but when it comes to Nigeria the tribalism is too much ...This country xanbot move forward with this kind of mindset
Do you think the whites will condone half of the hatred and insults, oppositions and dragging that igbos give Yorubas everytime and still allow the foreign person who are doing all these to be in a leadership position? Answer that question honestly to yourself. When you bite the finger feeding you and insult your benefactors you had it coming whatever happens. Imagine 15 years of opportunity yet they cannot find it in them to support the party giving them such great opportunity. Very bad and thouthless
Happy birthday to you Mr President Sir.i wish you long life and prosperity.God Almighty knows exactly why He allows you to be on that seat but I'm sure it's for the best.
Haters always hating on him senselessly. FYI the first thing I checked when Tinubu became the President is his birthday to determine the type of leader he is according to numerology and I found out he has a life path number of 22. If you look up numerology and read up on the life path number 22 you will realize the birthday is authentic because the qualities befits him and you will also realize he is a great man very rare type of personality and that he will leave Nigeria economy better than he met it. He is a good person.
I will not break it for 200 million dollars. It's not about the money, it's about making a statement and choosing sides. When you break your fast for money you have already rejected Almighty Allah and Islam and subsequently chosen shaitan. You will pay for that in this life and in eternity together with your lineage.
hafeeanubasy: This world no balance yoruba son is the second richest man in the country yoruba son is the president. 4 of 22 richest africans are yorubas yoruba has Nigerian greatest city yoruba has two of the 3 country most populated cities yoruba has the country most industrialized state Yorubas has the country best universities from U.I to convenant,To OAU to unilag has the country Firsts in almost everything highest number of grammys etc Has the most studied Nigerian language abroad
So,on what basis does Igbo actually thinks yorubas envy them?
They are projecting their own envy to yorubas,an hallmark of Narcissts
WATCH this 2022 BBC Global Disinformation Team investigative video documentary right BELOW from start to finish and you will CLEARLY understand why there's been a massive increase in the number of these trolls and fake monikers of Igbo origin on Nairaland, Facebook, YouTube, X, and other Internet platforms spewing FAKE NEWS, toxic hate, including HOW many of these Ipob members including known females living abroad in Italy, London, USA, etc, openly ordered the killings of innocent Igbos in South East Nigeria and operate many online troll farms which are geared towards spreading massive disinformation to incite ethnic hatred and war in order to destabilize Nigeria, spread of toxic hate speech, etc. These heinous crimes are being carried out by Ipob leadership by buying (through legit and non-legit donations from members in different countries) for distribution thousands of free laptops, free mobile phones, and free Internet data for their paid recruits living in Nigeria and many countries of the world. Nnamdi Kanu is also shown in the same video introducing Simon Ekpa and other criminals as members of his the organized criminal group known as Ipob while encouraging his listeners to follow and listen to them.
These Ipob troll farms mentioned in the BBC investigative video right BELOW are definitely part of the several FAKE monikers on NL, Facebook, X, YouTube and other social media platforms derailing threads, planting FAKE news and hate speech everywhere online and offline.
Ipob: biafra 'media warriors' Call for Killings on Social Media - BBC Africa
Igbos on nairaland and other social media platform working really hard to destroy the chances, opportunities, and goodwill that many innocent Igbos across Nigeria can gain from other tribes especially Yoruba. Imagine their vile comments on this thread. Children of hate.
Peter Obi has no enemy except his kinsmen. Many people are deciding right now not to give a certain opportunity to an Igbo person based on what they have experienced online.. But they are too dull to understand the consequences of their attitude.
They keep fanning this ember of discord as if they are being paid to self annihilate and self destroy. They are a single tree who wants to be called a forest. Common sense is not common and wisdom is known by his many children. My advice for every omoluabi is to recognize them for who they are and ignore them both online and offline. Children of hate and enemies of God. You cannot say you love God whom you don't see when you hate your neighbor that you can see.
This is Igbo people hate induced writeup to discredit Yoruba as usual. Blatant and bold, but if it's the other way round even without any hidden agenda they will cry blue murder. They are practically praying and prophesying evil and negativities against Yoruba daily, anything they wish to see happen to Yorubas they declare it is already happening, they don't realize that a curse causeless shall not stand and that's why despite all their efforts to drag us down we still lead them by aeons in everything. They don't even know that because they are not that intelligent.
As per the agbo, it is very true agbo is served in some parties but only by family and friends of celebrants who are into the business of agbo. It is always appreciated and well received at such parties because everyone knows they are medicine and are expensive to prepare. Try and buy herbs to prepare for yourself alone and see the cost. Poverty does not have anything to do with it at all.
It is so obvious that the whole article was tailored to malign and degrade Yoruba it is nauseating . Keep at this your envy and hatred of Yoruba and let's see where it will lead you all. Yoruba lagba.
LegendHero: God sometimes is a God of judgement. These Ibos have been online mocking Oyo kids that we lost lying they went there for food when it was just a Christmas funfair event and no food involved.
Now within few days, grown up adults were stampede to death in Ibo land while begging for ordinary rice. Should we now then mock them back?
Even Peter Obi mocked Ibadan people and had to delete his useless tweet about the event.
Oloriburuku ni won. As long as they keep hating Yoruba and speaking evil of Yoruba karma will always deal with them. It was so sad to see a whole group of millions of people mocking the death of innocent children, this is more shameful, adult fa. Shame on their poverty head.
Ishilove: And this is how innocent ones start suffering from curses brought about by the actions of their ancestors.
These murderous individuals are just so diabolical and should be sentenced to death. They have no business existing among normal people.
It's even likely the one that fell victim is as a result of karma on him for his parental/lineage sin. A child trained with blood money is likely going to pay with his own blood. When many people are walking around with evil debt hanging on their neck no wonder the country is where it is. You cannot plant onion and harvest tomatoes.
Emmanuel900: That's what jealousy and bitterness does to people, a lady from cuba linking her dress to Yoruba make you feel threaten by Yoruba to the extent you started wailing all over the thread. How does a lady linking her dress to Yoruba religion concern Igbo ? any positive media coverage of Yoruba people, culture and tradition pain you and make you feel bitter ? you won't end well if you keep it up.
They are the same everywhere. Come to YouTube and see them in the comment section. They are on an all out war to destroy Yoruba but we don't know. We fine and wine with them but they are our enemies. They are being groomed from the cradle to hate anything Yoruba. It's time Yorubas wake up from our sleep. They are killing us with their mouth and keyboards everywhere. Good thing many Yorubas don't even see them. Sad
ycat: Yoruba need to try and cut ibos to size for self respect. There's nowhere in Africa will a nation be discussing its culture & traditions and another nation will badge in and be abusing and insulting them there on what does not concern them, except Yoruba. It's a matter of time before ypu become the suegbe of Africa. At least do this for your children if you think you will die soon. Stop supporting anything ibos, boycott, ignore and shun anything ibos. Do not extend our Omoluabi to them, whether greetings or anything cultural, stop the weakling smiles and laughter, do it among fellow Yoruba only. The most they will call you is tribalist as they have been saying, but you will be respected again.
True that, those Yorubas marrying them are the worst. Imagine people that cannot display any iota of human civility and curtsy. People that have deep seated insecurity. As if they are still a primitive tribe in the jungle. They are a menace everywhere. They think they will continue to sow wind and not reap whirlwind. Not possible. Let them continue to sow hatred. They claim they are christians but in character they are anything but. God forbid.
You came here to see the dress..but you didn't see your people that cursed the girl initially because her name is CHIDINMA..abi?
What I detest the most about pretentious people like YORUBA is that you are diagnosed instantly from afar
How can you bypass the insults of Yoruba towards IGBos on this thread and you feign ignorance?
Anyway..if Awolowo your idol could do it..
No shaking..it's a generational thing.
Nonsense
I'm very sure Yorubas are too laid back and indifferent to carry the weight of hatred glaringly weighing you down. Any unfavorable response from any Yoruba to Igbo matter is always because of Igbo drawing the first blood. With your deep seated hatred for Yoruba, your name calling and insults. Note that the whole world knows exactly what is going on. Everyone that come across Igbo constant bashing of Yoruba knows who is the problem. Your parents train you to hate us while we never heard anything like that from our own parents growing up.
This is shocking. I came to this thread with a lot of prejudice just to see the so called attire since I hate idolatry in every form. I wasn't prepared for the Igbo world war 3 onslaught on Yoruba with so much hatred and venom. The thread is about the attire not about the contest or tribal competition. That should be clear to every normal person. Even the contestant mentioned Yoruba. Being insecure is an incurable disease. Paranoia and victim mentality. Very sad. I thank God I am omoluabi. ✔️
bdon123: Since u hav google ,why not type disadvantages of using CNG as car fuel around the world.
Is there anything that doesn't have disadvantage, it's even safer than Petrol. Embrace change. Aeroplane and cars were highly critisized too but everyone embrace them now.
