anonimi: Was it Arabs and Europeans that organised intra communal clashes here in order to raid slaves for sale
What is partially incorrect about what I said?
Guy, abeg rest. Argue with your phone if argument sweet u. You're wrong and that's it and if u don't want to accept that then ease off and stop this distortion of history.
anonimi: They were enslaved first by their own Yoruba kindreds, who SOLD them off to Arabs and Europeans in exchange for alcohol, tobacco, mirrors, fabrics etc.
Sold off in slave markets like Badagry.
Did we not insist on continuing the criminal trade after the whites changed their minds and abolished slavery
You're right but not totally. Some were slave who are sold to the Portuguese by their masters then, but not all. Intra communal clashes also play a major factor in born free been sold as slaves then.
Dantesi: Everybody come and see the "Peak Comedy" happening in Nigerian football! If you thought we had seen it all with the 4-3 penalty heartbreak in Rabat last November, then you are a "learner." We are currently witnessing a double dose of "premium drama": on one side, we are begging FIFA for a "technical victory" over DR Congo, and on the other, our coach is asking for a salary that can buy half of Lekki Phase 1. It is officially the season of "Shamelessness" and "Greed," and the Super Eagles are the main characters!
Shehu Dikko, Chairman of the National Sports Commission (NSC), has reaffirmed his confidence that Nigeria will obtain a favourable verdict in the ongoing eligibility dispute. Imagine a whole nation waiting for a boardroom miracle because we couldn't finish the job on the pitch. We are claiming DR Congo used "ineligible" players with European passports. Even if it’s true, is this how we want to go to the World Cup? Through "petition" and "Big Grammar"? We have become the "Sore Losers" of Africa!
The Super Eagles lost 4-3 on penalties to DR Congo in the final 2026 FIFA World Cup African playoffs last November. We had the chance, we had the players, but we lacked the "liver" to win. Now, the NFF has formally lodged a complaint, challenging the eligibility of several Congolese players based on their national laws against dual citizenship. We are basically playing "Legal Football" now!
“It is what it is," Dikko told journalists after meeting President Tinubu. He says we have a "good case" and that they noticed these breaches even before the playoffs. If you noticed them before, why didn't you stop the game then? Why wait until after the "premium tears" of a penalty shootout? It feels like we are just looking for a "one-chance" lifeline to save our faces from the shame of missing another World Cup!
While we are fighting FIFA, our Franco-Malian tactician, Eric Chelle, is busy fighting for his pocket. Reports say he has submitted a 19-point proposal seeking a salary review from $50,000 to a staggering $130,000 per month (approximately ₦174 million). ₦174 million every month? For a coach who just lost a playoff? The "Greed" is truly legendary!
The proposal doesn't stop at money. Chelle wants an official SUV with a chauffeur and security, housing in a "secured environment," and flight tickets for his family (Business Class for him and Madam, of course). He even wants his Personal Assistant included in the bonus structures! It’s like he thinks the NFF is a "Money Doubler" scheme. Sir, this is a football federation, not a billionaire’s charity!
One of the most hilarious points is his demand for 24-hour uninterrupted electricity at his residence to "support training analysis." My brother, welcome to Nigeria! Even the "Senior Men" in Aso Rock use generators. To ask for 24/7 light in this economy shows that Chelle is living in a "formatted" reality. He wants to live like a King while the fans are crying "Sapa"!
Chelle is also demanding "full autonomy" in player selection and the authority to choose international friendly opponents. He wants the NFF to sign a "Working Contract" for his staff and pay them on or before the 30th of every month. He’s basically telling the NFF, "Pay me like a CEO or I go to Marseille." The ego is currently higher than the Burj Khalifa!
The NFF has reportedly rejected the salary leap, citing "financial realities." Of course they did! Where will they find ₦174 million monthly when players are still asking for their 2024 bonuses? Chelle’s demands are "outrageous" and show a lack of respect for the current budgetary constraints of the nation.
Back to the FIFA verdict,we are literally begging for a "re-entry." If FIFA awards us the win, we go to the intercontinental playoffs in Mexico next month. But if we go there and lose again, what will be the next excuse? Will we petition the weather? Or the grass? The "shamelessness" of relying on a courtroom to reach a World Cup is at an all-time high!
Nigerians are currently "suspended" between waiting for a FIFA email and waiting for Chelle to lower his price. It’s a "wicked" combination of uncertainty. We don't have a stable coach, and we don't know if we are in or out of the World Cup. Our football is currently "lagging" worse than a 2G network in a rainstorm!
Chelle’s agents are playing a "dangerous game" by linking him with clubs in France. If he wants to leave, let him go! No coach is worth ₦174 million a month in this period, especially not one who couldn't beat DR Congo in 120 minutes. We need a coach with "liver," not just a coach with a big appetite for dollars!
Oya, Nigerians, are you "Team Petition" or "Team Move On"? And as for Coach Chelle, should we pay him the $130k or just cancel his contract and hire a local coach?
molatoro: I caught my wife with a drug dealer in a hotel room with a drug dealer (who happens to be a son to our maid when we were kids), she left home for 120 days!!!. Before I tracked her location. Women and betrayal. Only God will judge between us..
Thank God for your life, when God has shown you your enemy you're free indeed.

floss: Assuming they sell sniper 500k naira and only obtainable from government outlets , suicides through that means will reduce drastically
For those quoting me, who made the young girl fear for her future ?
According to Yarimo “it’s obi and ADC that kept Nigerians this way “
I don't agree with you on the notion pertaining to sniper. Suicide can be committed through lot of other means and sadly so. I believe more emphasis should be on human mental health and need for us to speak out when we need help. Let us politicizing every topic, politicians are not worth fighting for. May her soul rest in peace.
TrioVibes: THEY HID THE TRUTH FOR 20 YEARS. TODAY, IT CAME OUT.
For two decades, the media told you Donald J. Trump was friends with Epstein. They showed you the photos. They pushed the narrative. They lied.
Today, The New Yorker a left-wing magazine published an article confirming what we knew all along.
A newly released FBI report shows that on February 16, 2006, Donald J. Trump contacted the police to report Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes.
Think about it.
Not the Clintons. Not the Bidens. Not the Hollywood elite. Not the global leaders.
Only ONE man went to the authorities. Twenty years ago.
Why did the media bury this? Why did the FBI sit on this report?
Because it destroys their narrative. It proves Trump was never one of them. He was always the threat, trying to expose the rot from the inside.
This isn’t just another story. This is the story.
The one they never wanted you to hear.
It’s all coming out now. All of it.
NOTHING can stop what is coming.
You're hilariously nut. Trump is a paedophile and a knucklehead whom lies and deceit will be revealed for all in due time. FBI is covering his tracks now, but not forever.
mine3112: FIFA has ruled in favor of Nigeria, declaring them the winner of the Best Losers Playoff Round and awarding them a spot in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. This decision comes after Nigeria's protest against DR Congo, alleging that six Congolese players were ineligible due to recent switches in international allegiance. The match, initially won by DR Congo 4-3 on penalties, has been officially recorded as a 3-0 win for Nigeria.
RenewedHope001: Off the coast of Brazil, about 90 miles from São Paulo, there's a small island that looks like paradise from a distance. Lush green forests, rocky cliffs, beautiful coastline. It even has a cute lighthouse perched on top.
There's just one tiny problem: it's absolutely crawling with some of the deadliest snakes on Earth.
Welcome to Ilha da Queimada Grande—better known as Snake Island.
How many snakes are we talking? Estimates say there's one snake for every square meter. That's right. Every single step you take, there's potentially a snake under your foot, next to your foot, or hanging from a branch above your head. Some scientists think there could be as many as 4,000 golden lancehead vipers living on this tiny 110-acre island.
And these aren't just any snakes. The golden lancehead is one of the most venomous vipers in the world. Their venom is so powerful it can melt human flesh. One bite can kill you in under an hour.
So why are there so many snakes crammed onto one island?
Thousands of years ago, rising sea levels cut this island off from the mainland. The snakes got trapped. With no ground-dwelling prey to hunt, they had to adapt or die. So they evolved to hunt birds instead—which meant developing super-potent venom that could kill quickly before a bird flew away.
No mammals. No predators. Just snakes, birds, and more snakes.
The Brazilian government has made it illegal for anyone to visit without special permission. Even fishermen stay far away—the waters around the island are off-limits. The only people allowed are researchers, and they go in with doctors on standby.
The lighthouse? Abandoned since the 1920s. Legend says the last lighthouse keeper and his family were killed when snakes slithered through the windows one night. It's probably not true, but honestly? On Snake Island, you can't blame people for believing it.
Sometimes nature creates a place and then hangs up a giant "STAY OUT" sign. This is one of them.
AMINDA: Game on! Aproko cho cho cho. We know it's all snake oil from Fayose but I smell fear nonetheless. Seyi Makinde is a big boy and he isn't scared of anyone. Tinubu lackeys say 30 governors will deliver 30 states to Tinubu but tell them that Makinde will deliver Oyo to ADC and watch them begin to froth in the mouth. Seyi Makinde will be bringing more than just funds if he defects. He'll also be bringing the authentic and larger faction of the PDP to the fold. This also reduces Wike's leverage against Fubara and Tinubu because it is now in his own best interest to ensure neither Atiku nor Makinde emerge. Tinubu no longer needs to promise him much to get him to get to work.
Na in front of your lappy, u dey do all these political calculations, dey play sho gbo.

Biodun556: Why should US send F35, a 100 million dollars fighter jet to shoot down a drone less than 20,000 dollars with missiles close to 1 million dollars?
If US has to send f35 to defend the aircraft carriers, it means sworm of Iran drones will render the ship useless.
LagosOrigin: If you Tell this APC wicked souls to pay Nigerian workers a good living minimum wage, they will say no that the economy is struggling . But here they are flexing an imported woman in a private jet and rubbing it on our faces.
Tinubu and his wicked souls in APC must be kicked out in 2027.
Shimu, dey play my fans. Na the same people who dey complain now, go still vote the party again. It's more of a curse than a course.
