Abeg who sabi the pidgin version?


Is "I gbadun you" correct?

The OP is right. I agree. Please and sorry, are the hardest two words to say for most people.



Let's see How the thread will look like. Folks are still sleeping

angela98: Why not? Guys can be faithful if they establish a strong principle of sense of self and exercise self discipline to resist the natural forces of sexual attraction...

All these things plenty nau. The grammar alone fit Make person unfaithful.


On a serious note, yes, millions of men are faithful

abdulahi001: This is my thought!!!
When soup is heated, there is vibration between molecules of C-H bond in the oil e.g(palm oil) which weakens the cohesive electrostatic forces between the oil and keep it fairly fermented, therefore retain it's warmness very well, but when opened reverse of the aforesaid is the case.
To me those saying bacteria/fungi are wrong because at a very high temp. of 393K or thereabout, no fungi/bacteria can survive living when trapped inside.

I will like to know the soup that is being cooked at 393 Kelvin.

delishpot: God bless you. Then my obly dream was to become a moslem when I grow up. My sis even had a hijab, he couldnt wait to get older, convert and starz wearing her hijab. But now she still covers her hair and dress modestly. Our moslem friends inspired us. Large familues came together during feasts, friendl and happy chei gone are the days. When moslems and christians exchanged food during celebrations.
Miss the good old peaceful days.
Well, a brother here adviced me that evil moslems are just spoiling the religion which I have come to believe. Evil minds have polluted the minds of many of Gods followers.

Thank God you understand. Those festive periods were the bomb. There was no eid maloud (baban sallah) that we didn't have at least 4 rams in my backyard. When dad complained that He prefered he-goats, these Muslim men changed the rams to goats. Mum wooed them with isi - ewu.
I even got kaftans free.

Bro, them days are over!

Heard that one Igbo man has already been killed. In park road PZ

One report I heard was that the military men were blocked by the procession as they were on their way to the army barracks. And a soldier was shot in the leg.

Abeg, versions plenty. But the Igbo man own na confirmed one. An electronics dealer in park road.

Bros, If them sack me ehn? Laugh wan finish person here

Muslims have a whole lot of work to do. The media, isn't helping them one bit. I was raised in northern Nigeria, I knew how peaceful and tolerant we all lived in the early 80's. Imagine a young Christian child going into a mosque to nap after playing football with his Muslim friends on Saturdays. The imam will wake me up to go home when it's time for 4pm prayers.
Sometimes, I just sit and wonder How bad things have turned. In my secondary school, I had Muslims beating me in Bible knowledge and we joked about it, even my sisters were given Muslim names by our neighbours at their birth, and my dad called their kids Christian names. Musa was Moses etc.
We did sadakha (alms giving together).

Extremism has really polluted Islam, and nobody is going to fix it for you guys. The onus rests on you squarely.

Since no be football, no expect beta coverage from media....
If I was president #wyclife jean

Ayekotoo: Governors Commission Housing Estates, Opon Imo, Mono rail, Light rail, Skyscrapers, Industries etc but all want Uduaghan could think of was Swimming pool in this 21st Century. Diaris God o!

True, the thing get as e be for ear. Gov commision swimming pool.


If I be governor, I won't commission anything lesser than a stadium. All the commissioners will do that. Roads,bridges, housing estates, classroom blocks, water tanks etc

1stUnique: I just wan use that one step down my intestine before major farm work go start..

Step down ke? Your intestine na transformer? Abeg na farm we dey o, no kill me with laugh.

Jahnissi I'm following

priscaoge: Lol,but people around that area are still living in fear.

That, my dear is the main aim of terrorists

IjogzK: Eko ni Ile... Though it's most likely gonna be super expensive.

With Banana Island, Lekki, Eko Atlantic, This new one, hopefully most of the wealthy guyz staying in GRA, Magodo and Co can move there, while we at Alagbado Crossing, Okokomaiko and Agegunle can move to their former places.

All na growth.

Crazy world? What concerns the footballers and IDF with Gaza

Has anyone wondered why:

Israel said they have blockaded Gaza, even Egypt has closed the rafah pass too. I wonder Where over 2000 missiles reportedly fired by Hamas came from?

Same way BH moves with impunity in military controlled zones in Nigeria.

The same way I heard that terrorism started with the Jewish zealots

The only thing of worth is that gold stool.

Buhari should rather check his household. Who sold him out? How did these terrorists know about his travel itinerary?

talktimi: Trained snipers do not miss their target especially when its so slow moving through city traffic. By the way, I thought snipers use guns instead of bombs and from a distance sef ? El Rufai is trying to incite a problem he wont be around to douse since he probably has assorted visas to his name. Lets pray for Nigeria against dangerous bigots and their mechanisms. We know what Nasir is insinuating, can he back it up face to face ?

Thank you bro.
I get sickened when all talk about the explosions in kaduna is about buhari.

People died for crying out loud! Are they not equally important?

markpenk: I wonder why we need all these public holidays. We're a poor country with intellectually impoverished leaders. Yet we're going on holidays all the time when we should be working our a*s*s*e*s off to become a significant country that matters in the scheme of things. The BRICS nations met a few days ago to set up a bank that'll effectively compete with the IMF and World Bank. South Africa was one of those nations. Are we not in the same Africa? Only the wealthy nations should be able afford the luxury of rest and holiday. They've earned it. Not the poor, impoverished country with a doubtful future called Nigeria. I shake my head in pity for this country!

Bros, no vex. You fit go work on 28th and 29th.

winiwini: YOU ARE SERIOUSLY WRONG. MAKE UP WILL JUST GIVE YOU A SHORT TIME LOOK, HE WILL APPRECIATE YOU FOR SHORTER TIME AND REALISE HOW UGLY YOU ARE LATER.....BE REAL GIRL!!!!

winiwini: YOU ARE SERIOUSLY WRONG. MAKE UP WILL JUST GIVE YOU A SHORT TIME LOOK, HE WILL APPRECIATE YOU FOR SHORTER TIME AND REALISE HOW UGLY YOU ARE LATER.....BE REAL GIRL!!!!

Abegi make we hear word. There is a huge difference between the makeup of Nikki minaj, lady gaga etc and that of Sinach


Don't be So shallow minded.

Make up isn't all about Brazilian hair and plastic nails.


Queen Esther, Queen Sheba, Queen Nefertiti are huge examples.
Oh! Plus all my sisters, mother and grandmas

revolt: no the question should be " Have YOU TRAVELLED PAST THE WEST"?

COS I'm sure well travelled.

Have you travelled more than George W/H Bush?
Osama, Shekau, Hitler and all these people who though are widely exposed still refuse for see beyond their self-centered opinions about others?


I schooled in one of the best secondary schools in one of the North-Central states...

My school had the best WAEC results for years...

Funny thing was the students "tearing all these A1's" were not even from that region, some were refugees from the Serialone, Liberia and even Muslims...

But who took the award? The Anglican Bishop did. It was a missionary school.

dozzzybaba: Yes.

ANAMBRA IS NO MANS LAND !!
and the oil does not belong to the igbos. I trust my Ibaji warriors, we'l roast those Aguleri cowards

....and we all are saying let's separate and go our various ways. We are not even separate yet and all this disputes are happening...
I saw malnourished kids in south sudan yesterday on TV...

It started this way

revolt: how many yorobz school in da east or hausas?..
The bulk of results in the east are predominantly nwafors .

Have you really traveled at all?

That tree is scary

bennie224: Shameful!why does she have to play d role of a slave?It's like telling tom cruise to come play d role of a slave in a Nigerian movie,,Nollywood is a mess,,if i was given d chance to run d NGR movie industry,,i'ld have long gotten rid of people like this.

You and the person that liked your post, pls tell me Where you have reached in your field of endeavour.
Una just dey run mouth anyhow.

Do you know what the exposure would do for her career?

The pics alone is a huge differential with our nollywood

Happy birthday nadiasa1

revolt: U knw the beauty of truth? It never lies.

This years results will still show!! We r not scared of competition and don't need to garner positions and figures via propaganda, I can bet my whole life imo, delta, or anambra will still come out tops. I wonder how anambra even beat us(imo), it used to be an impossibilty. Well were all the same breed no shaking.

So only Igbos school and teach in these states? Same breed indeed?

Same goes for those who scream Yoruba supremacy, when we hear reports from Lagos. Etc


Some folks suffer from acute tunnel vision

iwonbaoko: Well only the deep can call to the deep.Pearls are nothing but swill for swine

Johndwayy you no dey hear word abi? Na TKO you dey find?

Abajosax007: i can speak hausa to some extent(i stay in zaria), and also speak yoruba fluently, i speak english but i understand words in my dialet(owe) but i just cant speak them out...though i have improved. I am learning the language to teach my children also.

#Team kwangilla

iwonbaoko: I doubt very much that you can speak even English very well judging from your lazy spelling.
The main beauty in Languages lie in artistic forms; verse,poetry song and performance. Proverbs and idioms are the substance of any language and are learnt by native speakers whether literate of not with little effort.

The kind of effort required to be an expert user of English is intense and unnatural for most Nigerians. Very few Nigerians master the English language enough to understand its subtleties nuances clangs puns etc and so the usage among Nigerians is often purely technical, limited to basic communication but artistic elements are totally lost on many. Another dimension is worship but that is a debate for another day. If you observe Nigerian children under the age of 10 they have an extremely limited English vocabulary and this of course would stem from their parents' limited vocabulary.
e.g ask any Nigerian child in this group to give synonyms at least 5 for ; food,eat,seat,house,shoes,shirt, and most would struggle just like many of their parents. English then acts to disenfranchise the thinking of a whole people who lose their own language without gaining English
How many new nursery rhymes,children's songs,stories etc are developed in Nigeria. Certainly our own children's stories always have an accompanying "soundtrack". And what about our drumming are we now to start drumming to English rhythms?
There are patterns of thought that are native to a particular language,idea forms that are native and cannot be translated satisfactorily. We see some of these in "Nigerian English" but then Nigerian English has not been standardized. Expressions like "fly wey no hear word na him dey follow dead body enter ground" or "use your teeth to count your tongue" have pure resonance in their native forms and are stilted and unnatural when rendered in English. In Nigeria and other Asian culture indirect speech i.e the use of idioms proverbs is considered a very high art in contrast to the "direct" approach of English. I think these all reflect the richness of the human mind in sharp contrast to the simpleness and poverty of a mind that produced your "offering" above

Bros! You wan kill johndwayy? Sumall sumall nau
