An electronic dealer at Alaba International market, Lagos State, Darlington Oleunne, has been arrested by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency for attempting to export 450 grammes of methamphetamine to Malaysia. Oleunne, who was arrested at the Murtala Muhammed International, Airport, Ikeja, was said to have ingested the drugs. NDLEA Lagos Airport Commander, Mr. Hamza Umar, who confirmed the arrest, said, “The scanning machine revealed that the suspect ingested drugs during screening of passengers on an Ethiopian Airline flight to Malaysia. During observation, Oleunne excreted 450 grammes of substance that tested positive to methamphetamine.” Oleunne, however, said, “I was assured that I could make a profit of N5m if I invested N900,000. It was a trial business for me because it is my first time. I also did it because of financial predicament.” Chairman of the NDLEA, Mr. Ahmadu Giade, called for stiffer punishment for drug traffickers. He said, “Stiffer punishment would help in reducing cases of drug production and trafficking. We shall prevent drug traffickers from using the country as a transit point for their illicit business. It is sad that a businessman will prefer to invest in criminality when there are countless legitimate businesses. “I am glad that Oleunne was arrested in Nigeria because of the capital punishment for drug trafficking in Malaysia. His arrest abroad would have added to the number of Nigerian drug convicts in foreign prisons.” Source - punch ng |

uj_sizzle: If we go by what movies portray then Yorubas are diabolical, Igbos are ritualist/cultists, Nigerians are fraudsters, Americans are psychopaths, Russians are terrorists, Indians are suicidal(i hear that's true btw), Chinese all know martial arts, Earthlings are morally and technologically weak and some day Aliens will take over. True but infact a certain percentage of these nationalities/tribes are infact involved in these things. Even you will attest to it.ofcourse not the entire populace but a percentage of them engage in these activities. So in as much as movies might e satirical or just pure entertainment, it also reflects what happens in the society. So my question - is it a true reflection does not cover the entire race/tribe. Atleast I'm Yoruba and I'm not diabolical. |

martronilla: unless u wanna come and hawk gala in the traffic because therez no job for u hereOMGosh this had me laughing so hard tears were dropping. Hahahaha Hawk gala...lmao Here's my advice tho, take a month out to visit the country...it's a short stay but you can have a feel of what the situation is like. Everyone saying there are numerous opportunities are speaking from their own experience and knowledge. Every man's situation is peculiar-you might get here and not make in the alleged business where others are taking millions. I'll advise you to come have a feel yourself especially if you haven't been home for a while. If you have a family, might not be a good idea to bring me just yet. Hope that was able to help. |

I am really curious to know if Yorubas and truly very diabolical. I've taken my time to study the movies shown on DSTV's AfMagic Yoruba and have noticed that in every movie you must see some guy or lady going to meet a traditionalist; what is popularly referred to as "babalawo". I know it is just the media (movies) but aren't these movies a reflection of what goes on in this society? The other day a friend told me her close friend sleeps with the son of one of the high politicians in the South West (name witheld for safety reasons) and this happens only when she's menstrauting as the guy has insisted that he sleeps with her only during her monthly menstration. Of course he pays her handsomely after every encounter (millions). So with the revelation of such story, it makes me want to believe that such things happen in society a lot...all in the name of money...and later power. Now back to my question...is this propagated in mostly Yoruba movies because it happens a lot within this tribe?even Yoruba comedy movies are not exempted. For the record...this is not a tribal slur. I am full fledged Yoruba with both parents from the South west. Just bothers me if this is a true reflection of the Yoruba tribe. |
