Celebrities / Historical Pix: Meet The First Nigerian To Record An Album by yeman05(m): 12:01am On Oct 07, 2017
Meet Jesse kuti , Fela Kuti's grand father is the first Nigerian to record an album.
*Josiah Jesse (JJ) Ransome-Kuti (1855-1930) – the singing minister*
Fela’s grandfather was an Anglican priest who attended the Church Missionary Society Training Institution in Abeokuta. He was musically talented and saw music as a powerful means of attracting people to the church. He was one of the first West Africans to begin translating Christian hymns into Yoruba, one of Nigeria’s major languages. He also composed new Christian songs in Yoruba, understanding the potential for music to increase awareness of Christianity. Some of his compositions were recorded by Zonophone Records in the UK in the early 1920s.

Education / 11 Words You Perhaps Didn't Know Were "Portmanteaus" by yeman05(m): 10:42pm On Jul 02, 2017
For the uninitiated, portmanteaus (or ‘portmanteaux’) are words which combine the sounds and meanings of two words. For example, motel (a combination of motor and hotel) or brunch (a combination of breakfast and lunch).
Whilst browsing a list of different portmanteaus and blends, I noticed a number of words that I use fairly regularly, and I had no idea they were formed from two different words. As a result, I thought it would be nice to summarize some of these in a list.
1. endorphin
This word’s roots have so far been traced back to the 1970s, as a blend of the words endogenous and morphine. It means ‘any group of hormones secreted within the brain and nervous system and having a number of physiological functions’.

2. moped
Oxford Dictionaries has found evidence that this word comes from Swedish, with its earliest example cited in the 1950s. It is a roughly translated and abbreviated version of the phrase ‘trampcykel med motor och pedaler’ which means ‘pedal cycle with motor and pedals’. The word ‘moped’ is assumed to have taken both its parts from motor and pedal.

3. napalm
Made famous for its use as a warfare weapon, this word takes its name from two of the ingredients required to make it. Naphthenic acid from crude oil and palmitic acid from coconut oil.

4. modem
Comprising the words modulator and demodulator, two devices named after the actions they carry out. A modem does both of these things in order to send and receive data.

5. dumbfound
A great word to describe the shocking moments that amaze or astonish, this word is, rather unsurprisingly, made up of the words dumb and confound.

6. chortle
The earliest noted example of this word is in Lewis Carroll’s Through the Looking Glass. It is assumed that it was made from a blend of chuckle and snort. It was a popular word used in the Beano magazines when a character would try to hide their laughter.

7. bash
This word has many different definitions, but it is assumed that it was made from a blend of bang and smash.

8. hassle
A great word, meaning ‘to pester’ as a verb, or ‘an irritating inconvenience’ in its noun form, it was probably made from a combination of haggle and tussle.

9. pennant
Usually meaning a kind of flag, this word was made from a blend of pendant and pennon. In this instance, our research suggests that ‘pennon’ was used to mean the same thing, before it evolved into ‘pennant’.

10. testosterone
Well known for its purpose in the development of male sexual characteristics, this word is rather unusual in the sense that it has made use of three words. It is a blend of testis, sterol, and ketone.

11. cambozola
A popular German blue cheese, and one of my favourites. This cheese is named by using parts of the names camembert and gorgonzola, as it shares textures, flavours, and aesthetics with both of these cheeses.

Politics / Re: "Omoyele Sowore Demanded Bribe From Saraki" - Dino Melaye Claims by yeman05(m): 1:14pm On Jun 15, 2017
Pls , can anybody give me tips on how to stop reading Nigeria politics news or anything that has got to do with Nigeria government. Cos all these happenings are giving me serious concern and worst lost of total hope in this present administration. I could remember during their campaign before the last election, what PMB emphasized on the most is to kill corruption. How has he not fail on his own campaign promise and persona motive. Automatically if he is to fair and sincere as he claims to be, his administration has failed before even before the last half of it term.

Crime / BOKO Haram-my Children Will Continue War Against Nigeria If I Die..-shekau by yeman05(m): 9:13am On Jun 11, 2017
DAILYPOST
Boko Haram, under the leadership of Abubakar Shekau has said that it was responsible for Wednesday’s attacks on Maiduguri, capital of Borno State, that killed over 15 people.

Shekau said if he died, his children will continue war against Nigeria and the West African region from where he stopped.

Sahara Reporters on Saturday said Boko Haram claimed it was in possesion of uniforms, shoes, ID cards, arms and ammunition the group claimed their fighters seized from the military during the attack.


The factional leader of Boko Haram stated that the group was determined to fight on and that there was no room for any dialogue.

He cited Somalia, Afghanistan, and Syria where Islamist groups had waged long standing wars.

Shekau also condemed those who have been claiming that the Islamist group’s war around Lake Chad was over

“Our kids and grandchildren will continue from where we stopped,” Shekau vowed.

Sports / Arsenal Football Club In Negotiations To Sign Nigerian Forward by yeman05(m): 6:11pm On May 23, 2017
Arsenal have begun discussions to sign KAS Eupen striker Henry Onyekuru, according to Sky sources.

The 19-year-old is the top scorer in the Belgium domestic league, notching his 20th goal on May 20, and has been in demand with SSN HQ reporting last week that Everton, Southampton and West Bromwich Albion were keen.

The forward's representatives have already told Sky Sports News HQ he wants to play in England and talks with two unnamed clubs were understood to be progressing recently.
Sources close to the player said they were confident the forward would play in the Premier League next season.

It seems the Gunners are now in the driving seat to acquire the services of the Nigerian forward.

Onyekuru, who has a £6.8m release clause in his contract, has already turned down moves to Belgian giants Brugge and Anderlecht.

Celtic are also understood to have come close to signing him in January but Eupen refused to sell him during the winter transfer window.

Onyekuru made his debut for Eupen in 2015 as a 17-year-old and helped the club achieve promotion to the Belgian top flight in his debut season.
