FreeStuffsNG:
OP, you omitted or carefully removed the part where Mr Obi admitted to breaking UK laws in his rumoured arrest, detention and deportation to Nigeria due to alleged drug crime related issue.

https://www.nairaland.com/7658191/breaking-humans-make-mistakes-did#122604560

It is now official that he has stopped blaming APC and admitted to violating UK laws . Now we need to tell us the whole truth, we need to know what the violation is. It is not like most voters in the core North and Yorubaland know him or care about his case anyways.

Here is his personal and official twitter page
https://twitter.com/peterobi/status/1648419386036981760?s=46&t=xTrf-rFmgIgCZLt-fFLEWQ

With this is admittance of law violation, except he prays hard and fast to find mercy and favour, Mr Peter Obi, may , God forbid, end up in a foreign jail like Senator Ekweremadu.

What a poetic justice that same day his online mobs were cyberbullying and criminally defaming Asiwaju was the same day Mr Obi was arrested and detained for alleged drug crime related issue in UK.

This life ehn! Never do or wish anyone bad o. Only God can deliver Mr Obi from this problem.

His online mob will be arrested and prosecuted for cyberbullying, slander, and criminal defamation to make sure we do not experience their pestilence in 2027.

What sort of perfume do you wear? If your perfume is fruity in odor, then flies are bound to follow you around.

On the other hand, if the above is negative, then seek spiritual help. Sometimes carcass or decaying flesh attract flies. Maybe something has been added to your aura that attracts this flies. I hope you get the drift.

She is not catching cruise. Its the fact. Women get bored of having just one sexual partner in marriage. I have seen it first hand. Upon all my knacks, styles, lasting in bed, big gbola, good loving, helping out in chores, all round support. My wife still went to spend night with a guy, and by chance I got to find out. And after initially trying to blame me for "pushing her", she later owned up that she was just bored and needed a new flame. And started trying to bobo me that there was no sex, that the guy (her colleague in the office) was just a friend. That she just needed a space to clear her head. I said all those na story for the gods. Clear your head from what? when we were all happy and laughing all week, knack Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday back to back cos its ovulation period. Then Friday, you up and comfortably spend the night with another guy, without blinking. You see how DNA problems start? Well, the marriage is done. Its a pity cos she was a nice person. But this crossed the line and I'm no simp.

stopthecycle:
Mr. Festus Keyamo, in this interview with the Time Magazine in the year 2000, stated that Sen. Bola Tinubu destroyed education in Lagos State, bought media houses over, bribed the State Assembly through weird allowances ("Chigaco" allowance) and rendered thousands of workers useless.

My question: What has changed?
What has changed is that Festus Adeniyi Keyamo discovered that his former assertions about Asiwaju Tinubu were FALSE! So, even before the year 2010, he had retraced his steps. Those of us who are older know these facts. Period.

Romance › Re: The Disadvantage Of Being Disvirgined Before Marriage. by XAUBulls: 12:03pm On Apr 18, 2023
NBossConcept:
We hear alot of people saying a guy or lady is not good in bed or one party doesn't satisfy the others sexual desire. Trust me this is mainly attributed to those who never married as virgins.

When two people get married as virgins, there is no way they will have any issues with their sex life because first of all, no matter the size of the guys manhood, that is what the lady's virgina will get use to and their way of sex life is what they will both grow with and add spices to just the way they want it.

Now because so many people these days get disvirgined very early and probably end up being with more than one person before they get married, the issue of sexual satisfaction always arise and this is because of the different experiences one gets to have. In this regard you find yourself comparing one particular persons way of sex to another and when your married partner fails to be like one of those you have been with in the past, it becomes an issue and you start looking for were to get extra satisfaction that will finally destroy your marriage.

Be a proud virgin till marriage and trust me you will be one of those to have a happy ever after married life.
Bump. This is not absolute.

Crime › Re: Lynched Driver, Temitope Olorunfemi, Buried In Ondo (Photos) by XAUBulls:
othermen:
‘Lynched Driver’ ? He is a son, he is a father, he is the husband to another. His statistic is little in being a driver and the motivations behind the mob action is little in him being a driver. It was that he was alleged of being a ritualist or looking better. If he was in a rickety vehicle, his outcome might have varied in spite of the accident that served to introduce him to a tragic end.

That said, about a decade ago, in Unibadan, a student was stripped naked and paraded around the halls. He was involved in theft.

Such was not the norm, however, it was the case then, that a thief will be mobbed and the students leaders or hall elders would endeavor to get the culprit to a secured place so that he can be handed over to Abefele (the school security).
Students can as well put a call through to the school security to avoid an utter descent into chaos. The point however is, in a community of reserved minds molding our society character, such events do occur. Again, If such mob actions could occur in an intellectual community, it can occur anywhere else in the country.

Just some weeks ago, A 500 level student was killed in OAU by his fellow students. He was accused of being a petty thief. While the outcome is isolated, the events leading to the outcome is the norm for those alleged or caught in such misconduct.

Is it up to a year, Deborah was killed in another institution of learning- just because she felt a platform created for educational purposes shouldn’t be abused for religious purposes? There was an endorsement of the disaster she was meted by most on the side.

In Adamawa too, a former VC was stripped naked and mobbed in a case of mistaken identity. They thought he was the INEC official that declared a winner in the gubernatorial election. Many on the social media celebrated such mob action and there has been no outright condemnation from the mainstream media that is busy pandering to a movement where mobbing others for their political beliefs or endorsements or affiliations is the order.

Anybody can be a victim of mob action. In all of these cases, fewer people had the courage to intervene. Anybody can be accused and on the basis of allegations, mobbed. Anybody can also be falsely accused and on the basis of such allegations, mobbed.

In my experience of such despicable spectacles, my interventions have been nil. The orientation I was inculcated was such that, if there is a fight, do not intervene- just walk away, because there are those who have lost their lives in an effort to be peacemakers and that the blessing that Christ in his sermon on the mount assured for such peacemakers is perhaps not worth much than being alive in one piece.

So it has been, if there is a public disturbance brewing, just take the other road or street. And so it has been, if a mob action is taking place in my street, I stay indoor. However, that mob action could be on an acquaintance or a relative. And by refusing to invite law enforcement officers or take any reasonable action, I have contributed to the murder of such fellows.

Let us reconsider our orientations. This incident in Akure would not stop another mob action from occurring in Onitsha. But then, if local community leaders are charged with the responsibility for and rewarded for protecting those at the whip of mob actions, there may be a reduction.

We also have to make a spectacle of capital consequences for those that take the law into their hands, even when the victims of such mob actions are culpable. Finally, we have to as responsible citizenry endeavor to take quick actions such as escalating any event to law enforcement where a mob action is likely to occur. During ALUU 4 , such an escalation was done but the police failed to save the day.

Failures of such reputations has to be met with remarkable disapproval and even consequences for officers involved. There was perhaps a police station in proximity to where this action took place. They should also explain what actions they are taking to ensure a re-occurrence do not occur. The Police should be alert to such events. It’s public , and saying that mob actions occurs in a very brief time is just an admission of incompetence. It is such incompetence of the law enforcers and incompetence of the judiciary that mob leaders have used in justifying their actions and the recruiting of the public to participate in murder.

While such remains a deterrent to concrete actions that may be done to allay the prevalence of incidents such as have occurred with Olorunfemi, we must begin to be courageous and lend ourselves to participating in ensuring humanity is restored on occasions of blind rage.
Nicely put. Your long summations made sense.

This also calls for more defensive driving skills on the part of all drivers to avoid accidents like this.

Before leaving your house daily, check your car tyres, car breaks, and do NOT overspeed. Regular vehicle maintenance at the automechanic is key.
Family › Re: Is Anything Wrong With Husband & Wife Sleeping In Separate Rooms by XAUBulls: 9:47pm On Apr 17, 2023
EriMma1:
Even though some religious settings kick against it, I don't really see anything wrong there. If you truly love and care for each other, it won't affect your relationship.or marriage or even encourage any form of drifting or cheating. After all, when you guys were dating, you were sleeping apart for the most part of it, yet you got married.

I'm big on personal space and privacy especially when sleeping. Most times before I finally retire for the night, Im usually on the phone for hours and this might disturb the other person or means I'll have to adjust and drop the habit which may not sit well with me, like sort of inconveniencing myself. So, I'll rather just be apart.

Another reason I don't really fancy the idea of a shared space is because, some men don't know how to sleep. some just want to use you as pillow, holding you while sleeping and at the end of the day you don't get to sleep well or even sleep at all. That's not bonding, you're depriving yourself of good quality sleep which will take a toll on your health in the long run. If you want to bond, during the day, we could cuddle each other and have our lovey dovey moments ( not sex) It could even be at the beach. So there should be time and space for everything.

I remember the last time I visited my guy. He wouldn't let me sleep and I just hated him for it. He wanted to use me as pillow. Go now oga, he just wants to rest his big head on my tommy and chest. Na so I push am go one corner. Sofri go for ground on cold tiles and slept off like a baby. Next morning baba dey tell me say, "I was just looking at you last night" huh.. I said "and so? Make person no sleep because she come visit you. Abeg park well. Even if we were married, I would have still done the same thing.
I love my sleep!

Lastly, whether you sleep in the same room in each other's arms o, or sleep in separate rooms, person wey wan cheat go still cheat. A man will remove his wife's hand from his body and still go meet Ekaete for her room sleep with her. So why deprive myself of natures beautiful gift for one yeye bonding wey no work? Bondfire!
Lol... Nice anecdotes.

Health › Re: Factors To Consider When Seeking Medical Treatment Abroad by XAUBulls: 6:36pm On Apr 17, 2023
Medvisit:
Medical tourism is on the rise in Nigeria, with estimates suggesting the industry is growing by 15-25% each year. Nigerians travel abroad for medical care for several reasons, the primary one being the non-availability of capacity for treatment of most serious health challenges locally. As long as our healthcare system remains in a deplorable state, people will continue to seek medical care abroad.
However, going abroad for treatment is not all positive. In fact, some Nigerians that travel abroad come worse off than they were before. Thus, if you are part of the increasing numbers of Nigerians who are planning to seek certain treatment abroad, here is a list of important things to do before embarking on your medical tourism.

1. Consult your local doctor
Your doctor needs to be involved in the process. First, he will need to write a medical report that will state your medical history, why you are seeking care abroad, what care you need (based on his understanding) and any other details that will help the foreign doctors understand your needs and design an appropriate treatment plan.
Another reason your local doctor needs to be involved is that for a lot of cases, post-op management is important and this can only be provided effectively by your local doctor if he has details of the treatment given to you abroad. It is also crucial for patients suffering from respiratory, cardiac, bariatric and neuro-surgical disorders who are vulnerable and might require medication and appropriate preparatory treatment for embarking on the journey

2. Costs
The costs of a medical procedure can vary between different hospitals and countries. You should consider and compare the price range of different destinations in order to know which one is affordable to you. Although quality should never be compromised for cost, the actual expenses are, nevertheless, an important factor to consider. Aside from the costs of the treatment itself (which, again, should not be the deciding factor), the accommodation, transportation, and living costs can vary from country to country. It might be in your best interest to opt for a country that is relatively less expensive, as long as the quality of care is good.

3. Research possible hospitals in detail
Before settling down on a hospital, you need to do a thorough assessment of the hospital (s) you are considering. The fact that a particular country has a positive reputation for healthcare quality does not mean all hospitals in that country will be of equal quality. To settle on a hospital, you need to do your assessment on:

Certifications: A good hospital should have local and international accreditation. These are proofs of their staff qualifications and commitment to medical standards. Specific accreditations that you may look out for include JCAHO, ISO, JCI and national accreditations (like NABH for India), etc.
Awards: Any award that the hospital has won is also a reliable indicator of its quality.
Affiliation: Affiliation and research collaboration with reputable medical schools like Harvard Medical School, John Hopkins Medical School, etc is a good point to take into consideration.
Patients’ reviews: If there are numerous positive reviews, you can be more confident in your choice. Please note that reviews/testimonials on the hospital’s websites are not always dependable. You should endeavor to look for reviews from neutral websites.
Staff Pedigree: Aside from the hospital, you should also get to know about their doctors/ surgeons. Did they graduate from good medical schools? What professional body do they belong to How many years of experience do they have? Do they have any medical awards/ certificates?
Language: Communication is key in every human endeavor and medical tourism is no exception. Opt for hospitals & clinics where the staff, especially the clinical ones, can speak English or your mother tongue. Otherwise, you run the risk of miscommunication and failure in treatment. If that is not achievable, make sure there is a qualified translator available to help you.

4. Prepare all the necessary documents
Before going overseas for medical treatment, make sure to bring along the following papers:

Previous medical records: These include documents relating to your medical history and previous treatments, including X-ray reports, immunization records, prescriptions, attestations from your doctors about any unusual drugs (e.g. narcotic-containing drugs) that you may be taking.
Passport & visa: These are essential for you to enter any country aside from your own. As a Nigerian, this is especially a key factor to consider. Most countries will scrutinize your visa application thoroughly. Hence, you should get educated about the visa issuance requirement of the particular country you want to go to and make sure you are well prepared. Also, note that the visa application procedures are sometimes very complicated and can take up to months, so plan this ahead of time.
Credit cards, debit cards, and travelers’ checks: You should always have local currency, travelers’ checks and one or two major credit and debit cards.
As a Nigerian traveler, please note that you have to declare any amount above $5000 you are travelling with.

5. Quality and specialization
You should also think about the specialization of the region and the country you are considering. While most countries do meet the common healthcare standards, they can have a reputation for a certain field or specific procedures. For example, some countries may be hotspots of fertility treatment, while others may have a reputation for organ transplants. In even within countries, hospitals have their areas of excellence.

6. Get ready for an extended stay
In most cases, you will have to stay abroad for some time. This is because you need time for recovery and post-treatment observation. Also, be reminded that the initial treatment plan given to you is tentative based on the medical report you provided, actual treatment might be different depending on what your physical examination and tests reveal. Hence, keep this in mind before applying for a visa, as you may be asked about your expected time of stay in the foreign country.

7. Always consider traveling with an attendant
For most surgical treatments, you will be required to travel with a companion to act as your attendant. In many cases, the treatment that you have traveled for will leave you weakened for some time before being able to function normally again. A traveling companion can provide you with the physical and mental support that you will likely need before, during, and after the journey.

Dear young Nigerians aged 35 and below, I cannot stress the importance of acquiring a second passport from a functional society. In this era of globalization and technology, the freedom to travel without any restriction cannot be overestimated. It doesn't mean that you have to abandon Nigeria totally for another country. It's about having options to make life easier for you. Nigerians often brag that all you need is money and everything else falls in line. That's not totally true. Yes, money helps make life easier but it's not enough. The way foreign countries are treating Nigerian passport holders this days, money is immaterial. They don't rate your money at all. Even Dangote himself, the richest black man in the world, complained a few years ago that with all his money, he needs a visa to travel everywhere within his own continent.

Benefits of dual nationality: With a second passport, you have visa-free access to most countries in the world. No more queuing a foreign embassies and thereby subjecting yourself to rubbish. Being a dual national means that you have an option. A plan B if you like, in case you are fed up with the situation in Nigeria. That backup plan is very important with the state of the country. You can also transfer citizenship to your children and grandchildren thereby ensuring that your descendants future is secured. They will be very grateful for what you have done for them. Many parents in the 70s and 80s didn't take advantage of those opportunities and they are now regretting their actions. Having a second passport is also good for business and career advancement as you can travel anywhere for business, conferences and job opportunities without restrictions.

So, young people, if you have the opportunity, try and acquire a second passport either by JAPA or investing a significant amount of money to get one. Don't listen to people telling you to just focus on making and spending money in Nigeria. These people are short-sighted and are unable to see the big picture. There's a reason why a lot of the 1% are now acquiring second passports from countries such as St Kitts. Most politicians have second passports. You think they are fools? Saraki will never relinquish his British passport in the name of patriotism. Do you think that Ben Bruce Mr. "grow the naira" would renounce his US citizenship for Nigeria? Many rich people envy those with dual nationality as they don't have the same limitations as those without one have.

My point is, people would always migrate as long as the economic reason makes sense for them to do it. They can decide to return or not. This your boss mindset is your personal opinion. Some people are not interested in being entrepreneurs, earn well, and that is enough. I have stated in the last sentence that many would be employees, not employers. This belief that everyone must be an entrepreneur is the reason POS stalls outnumber hospitals in Nigeria. Why? cReAtE a bUsInEsS. I was part of the interview coaching assessment where a man in his mid-30s came for prep to be interviewed at Sahara Group. This man studied at one of the federal universities in the South West and did his MSc and PhD at the University of Georgia. To you, since he is returning to Nigeria, he must start his own energy company. That is not how it is done elsewhere. There will always be more employees than employers. Even the Sahara Group sef was co-founded by a man - Tonye Cole - who japa'd to Brazil to do his MSc in Architecture even though his dad was a one-time ambassador.

BTW, middle age people that came back? The man I mentioned who studied at Cambridge returned and started his business. Others decided to work in Nigerian companies either as expats or Nigerian nationals. Every mallam to his kettle. About Ezra and Shola, they honed their skills and made it. However, their contemporaries are also leaving so that they attain those citizenships and currently work in top firms in the abroad. It is their choice to remain there or not. Whether they become boss or not is their personal problem. Ezra and Shola as they are can decide to buy Grendaian citizenship as they have the money (https://www.aljazeera.com/features/2020/12/10/wealthy-nigerians-buying-citizenship-overseas), but should the next Tom and Harry wait till they blow? Again, Ezra and Shola are entrepreneurs who made it, but what about the numerous others who will be employees? Should they not utilise the opportunity when it is available? Without sounding like a broken record, many will return, give it time. Unless you want to propose a bill prohibiting diasporans from returning to Nigeria. But hey, that bill has to pass through Mr Femi of the HoR, who once studied and worked in the US. grin

Sorry for the late reply - I was watching NBA playoffs.

Yes, I'm pretty sure they know where they're from hence the family has a contract with Delta State government to build a mega city in Asaba. I guess they know their lineage is in Asaba or one of the core Igbo states.

I can't find copies of Sundiata's book online but I'll quote Enrique Martino who referenced his book in his journal and book. When you read, "Touts and Despots: Recruiting Assemblages of Contract Labour in Fernando Pó and the Gulf of Guinea, 1858–1979" (https://www.academia.edu/34998592/Touts_and_Despots_Recruiting_Assemblages_of_Contract_Labour_in_Fernando_Po_and_the_Gulf_of_Guinea_1858_1979_PhD_Humboldt_University_of_Berlin_2016) by Enrique Martino, you'd see that all the Fernandinos (name for creoles in Fernando Po) and Agudas from Lagos were referred to as 'Lagosians'. Interestingly, in the case of William Allen Vivour, he was referred to as a Fernandino but at no point was he called 'a Lagosian'. So, that shows he never settled in Lagos.

However, in the journal, Enrique Martino said William Allen Vivour was a palm oil agent of the John Holt Company, prior to starting his plantation business in Fernando Po.

So, it begs the question: where did William Allen settle after he left Freetown in Sierra Leone? The answer can be found below:

This is a screenshot from Enrique Martino's book where he claimed William Allen Vivour was possibly Igbo (I didn't post the link to the book due to spambot hence I added the page so you can google it)

Awesome!

How's it going Creeper?

I appreciate this feedback. I will do some advanced data mining with the keywords you have provided in your post.

Second the Rhodes-Vivour family must organise a press conference and issue a press release clarifying their real paternal and maternal ancestries which may include a
Yoruba maternal lineage. They will have to take a DNA ancestry test too from AfricanAncestry.com. Period.

I know full well that returnee Efik, Ibibio and Ibo ex-slaves from Freetown, and their descendants settled in Calabar and NOT Lagos Island.

Some returnee formerly enslaved
Nupes (Tapa) from Sierra Leone also arrived Lagos Island with Yoruba returnees from Sierra Leone and settled down, NO doubt because Nupeland shares boundaries with Yorubaland and historically the Nupe area in the Kwara North axis was conquered militarily by Oyo (just like parts of Bariba and Fon), and incorporated into the mighty Oyo Empire.


Thanks again.

This one can never win a political post in Lagos.

He can only reinvent himself as a social commentator.
Lol... I can just imagine him dishing out discordant social commentaries.

Wow! Sagamu is the capital of Remoland.

How is she from Sagamu and still have the audacity to do something sacrilegious?

Eyo is from Iperu Remo hence the chants/incantations have Ijebu cadence. And listening to the chants/incantations - you can’t miss the ‘Osugbo’, ‘Alagemo’ and Ijebu references (I still watched a documentary on Eyo a few days ago when the controversy started). Osugbo and Alagemo are quintessentially Ijebu.

Whilst watching the Eyo documentary - the Adimu Orisha cited iconic Yorubas like Sir. Adeyemo Alakija, Kofo Abayomi, etc. as some of those who have worn the Eyo regalia. So, it shows it isn’t just some festival you can disrespect.

Sorry, but the woman needs to flogged for being stupid. There are certain things you don’t touch, no matter how idiotic your mentality is.
Deep insights.



Cc: Sukkot, what's your take here on the Eyo desecration.
Cheers.
