maclatunji: It is true that Solomon (AS) banned all idolatory because he was a Muslim.

Oriomhon lga,so all that is 20mins? Why are you crying,because we seek to be called ika,not igbon or benin.. If you are reasonable enough you will respect that,but am not surprise,you and ur kins are showing off what ur tribe is known for.

phoenix33: Who Loves An Alpha Male?


He is so cool. So suave, so confident and so bad ass. When he walks into the room, everyone stops to notice. Men like to hate him, women, well; they would just give anything to date him.

It’s not very hard to spot him in the crowd. In fact it’s really very easy because everyone wants to hang out with him. It’s that ‘thing’ about him that draws all eyes and attention; the unmistakable characteristics, the leader-of-the-pack appeal. Welcome to the world of the Alpha Male. Check.

And that’s all fine. Alpha Males exist. They are real. And they are the ‘IT’ boys who can turn tables with their infinite capacity for charm. True Story.

And guys, really, which one of you will not aspire for such ‘IT’ appeal? Such ‘It-ness’ is all-season demand. We get that.

But here’s the catch. There are these few things, an Alpha Male NEVER does. In the world of Alpha Male-ism, these things are strictly anathema. And if per chance you are exhibiting any of these symptoms, you know that whatever else you may be or not, a thick red cross has been drawn over the Alpha Male option!

Getting on with the not-an-alpha-male dead giveaways: (Girls, be paying more attention that the dudes!)
You Bully People:

An Alpha male is a fighter. True. And he will take on bigger, bad asser, chunkier foes if the need be. But Alpha Male be no bully. Bully-ism isn’t something that Alpha ‘It-ism’ is made of. Alpha Males do ‘real’ fights.

You Betray Others To Get Ahead:

Oh no. Bullshit Alarm. Alpha Males don’t abandon their pack; they don’t betray their pack. Alpha Males don’t believe in walking all over others to get ahead. They fight honorable fights and they fight hard. Underhanded, scheming? Not so Alpha Male in our opinion.

You Lie:

Alpha Male may be a lot of things. But he isn’t a liar. He doesn’t lie to his boss, to his friends, to his girlfriend. He doesn’t feel the need to. He knows what he knows. And he does what he does. He’s got his facts straight, and his priorities right. He doesn’t get himself into situations he might need to slither past, or wriggle out of. Lying, isn’t his thing. If you lie a bunch, dude, being an Alpha Male isn’t your thing!

You Blame Others:

Does blame game too much, too often? Douche Bag Alarm! Certainly NOT Alpha Male at all!

You Act Before You Think:

So you think it’s funny? Snapping into a reaction before putting much thought? We think not – not funny at all. Alpha Males are ace, cool, composed thinkers. You can hear their brain ticking and isn’t that just so attractive. Cool, methodical and calculated. Not rash, jumpy and reactive.

You Panic In Crisis:

Know this – the more severe the panic, the cooler an Alpha Male will be in responding to the crisis. He doesn’t panic. He doesn’t let others panic. In-Control – SO ALPHA!

You Gossip:

And that’s just girly! And you gossip about your friends, your girlfriend, your colleagues and your boss. And everything else in general. You pick out people’s weaknesses and shred them and think that makes up for a good, lasting, heartening laugh. True, if you do this, you may be bagging one ferocious bout of laughter, but that’s all you’re going home with, douche bag!

You Suck Up And Seek Approval:

And Alpha Male doesn’t suck up, he doesn’t seek approval. Let’s put it this way: He is sucked up to, and he dishes out approval to others. Check.

You Don’t Do Apology Even When You’re Wrong:

An Alpha Male is very clear about this. He can be wrong. He makes no claims about being infallible. And since he can be and is wrong sometimes, he has no qualms in manning-up and accepting his mistake and apologizing for it. In fact this is one trait that raises his hotness by like a thousand notches!

You Let Your Girl Pay For Dinner:

So really, it has less to do with notions of gender equality and rah rah. It’s more about how an Alpha Male operates. He’s got gentle manly written all over him. Even if his girl offers and reaches for the cheque, he gently plucks it off her hands and calmly, not facetiously, goes, ‘Hey, I’m handling this.’ And that’s that.

So dudes, you can go through this check list, like carefully. And tick off the traits and decide for yourself what your real Alpha Male quotient is. If you’ve managed to spare yourself of even eight out of these ten So Non-Alpha Qualities, We SEE POTENTIAL!



Peace out!

puffpuff: THE 4 BASIC LAWS OF DEMAND,SUPPLY AND PRICE

1)If demand increases and supply remains unchanged,there will be increase in price
2)If demand decreases and supply remains unchanged,there will be decrease in price
3)If demand remains unchanged and supply increases,there will further decrease in price
4)If demand remains unchanged and supply decreases,there will be increase in price.
**1&4 means scarcity. This can be as a result low production,govt policy, hoarding or artificial scarcity.
**2&3 means surplus(or glut as defined by Dangote). This could be function of competition,change in taste,govt policy etc

From the foregoing,it could be seen that Dangote is against PRICE REDUCTION.

Shutdown decision is an economic sabotage which our govt(apostle of local content and export)should rise up against. Better still,let the market be fully saturated with locally and globally produced products. This will leads to mass competition thus reducing price. Nobody will force him back to business when his aim of creating artificial scarcity becomes futile.

Allow economic principles to work naturally and we become a better country and citizens

yuzedo: Yeah, that's the only place i've ever faulted his stance. And it is unfortunate that our most trusted public servants (Fashola, Oshiomhole, and co) were also agitating for the subsidy removal at that time without PROPERLY laying down the terms/blueprint. Was disappointing.

But honestly? SLS is presidential material anyday! He's too damn intelligent and honest, with balls of steel necessary to take tough decisions and a cosmopolitan, relatively detribalized personality. Fashola + SLS in 2015? Naija don wake up be dat, forget Muslim/Muslim situation, tell me you wont vote that ticket.
Make Ibos go siddon for now, we never arrange our home! (yes, i said it, abum nwa-nri)

kingoflag: Eh, whatever.

In the future, lets all not also forget those that forced GEJ down our throats....The god-fathers and the "98%" vote riggers.

dafman10: My broda pls ignore Achi from Ebonyi state jare. U knw Ebonyi is even regarded by d mainstream ibos as an outcast state. So d guy gats fight hard to be noticed n pitied in d long run. Nonsense.

N.B: divide and rule tactics can never work on us again. I blv in the Niger Deltan and Biafran nation(s) under peace and love. So help me God.

sanb: Oh dear!!! Well, I’ll like to say don’t date either of them but on the other hand, I wouldn’t.....one thing you need to remember; they are friends; and this’ll certainly disrupt their friendship (saying this from my perspective as a woman) and I might be right or wrong. If I look at it from another angle, then you’re better off with the 2nd lady cos she seems to know what she wants and goes for it and I’m not saying cos of that, then she’s cheap; cos she ain’t.

The 1st lady was forming too much and now she’s got to pay the price; she probably remembered that this is the 21st century and she has suddenly woken up to smell the coffee. If she throws a tantrum, ignore her as she didn't know what she wanted from the start. Let her know you’ll rather remain as a friend which was what she wanted from day one and she displayed this for at least a full year.

But remember, it could turn really ugly and nasty; “TRY NOT TO DATE BOTH LADIES TOGETHER; WHETHER IN THE OPEN OR SECRETLY” cos “HELL HAS NO FURY LIKE A WOMAN SCORNED”....IMHO, I’ll say stick with the 2nd lady but let the 1st lady know the reason why you’re dating her friend. All the best and be careful ..cos we ladies sometimes hmmm I’ll say no more....

Abagworo: As a matter of fact Igbos in the Southeast never used that Igbo world to address themselves as can be seen in my list above. Nobody listed Igbo. The only Igbo group that had several sub-groups was the Isuama and they knew themselves as Isu and not Igbo. Also Etche.

Look at the list of the tribes. Among these are several people considered today as Igbos(Only one tribe was labelled Igbo-"Igbo Nduri" and some in Rivers like Isu-Etche, Osusu Etche and Osusu Omuma.:

Abalo, Acocuá, Agro, Apapá, Bibí, Bogre, Bogre
Isuama, Abate Singlava, Brícamo, Ecunaso, Ibo Induri, Isicuato, Isiegue, Isuama, Isuama Aballa Ocuite, Isuama Ibi, Isuama Isiegue, Isueche, Oquella, Ososo, Ososo Eche, Ososo Omuma, Oxó, Ugri, Unigini, Aballa
Otopa, Isuama Umofina, Isuama
Osulerisna, Orú, Elugo, Orate, Bané, Yudusi.

Bezed: according to an article i read once in wikipedia, a fraction of equatorial guinea, speaks a certain kind of igbo
