Yes, these are larva sourced from waned raffia palm tree which later metamorphosed to a kind of beetle found mostly in fresh palm wine. The Igbo name for this type of beetle is 'Akpakiri'. The other kind of larva is sourced from withered oil palm tree which metamorphosed to rhino beetle that you referred, Igbos call it 'Otugbu'. However, both are edible and nutritious.
it is called rhynchophorus, the one that metamorphosed to rhino beetle is called oryctes

Politics / Re: The Notable Difference Between Jonathan And Buhari's Subsidy Removal by marnboy(m): 12:47pm On May 13, 2016
989900:
For the title of your article, you've done justice.
And it seems GEJ sympathizers have forgotten that subsidy payments going from N300b to over N2 trillion was why sane people got mad, and at the end of the day, subsidy was actually partially removed.

Subsidies are actually a good gesture, governments naturally subsidize the populace in one form or the other, but for the bastardization of the good gesture, we all basically agree subsidy must go, but at the right time: when we no longer depend on imported fuel, or have greatly reduced our dependence on imported fuel.

That said, on the overall, after almost a year in power, I'm not going to make excuses for Buhari's government's inability to tackle pipeline and oil installations vandalism, and cross-border smuggling, nor am I going to make excuses for its inability to have the old refineries working or modular refineries chipping in their bits. The APC won the election in March 2015, enough time for preparations.

As it is now, what we have is a cosmetic solution to a fundamental problem: if we do not get refineries (old and new) doing their thing, should oil prices sell for around $70/barrel, or the Naira continues to free fall, then pump prices will go north, or reversal to paying subsidies.

Our only 'get-away' is to find a way to make the Naira stronger, and drastically eliminate importation of refined fuel.

bros among all your comments on nairaland, this is the best, kudos:
enough of this Apc/Pdp shit and lets reason like adults because until Nigeria dis-integrates its still our only home for now!

I just came back from a ban concerning this fulani issue. Them say I insulted d tribe, no wahala we are all observing. Have u all noticed these days that u will hardly find adults herdsmen but u'll rather see little children moving about with the cattles. The big question is were are the adults? I think they have all gone on a killing vacation somewhere. This issue is not APC VS PDP, its all about the survival of Nigeria, majority of the people up north are highly political wise than most peeps down south. Let's keep fighting ourselves like mumu while these blood suckers over run us, but God forbid. Igbos are the only tribe that can not be deceived by propaganda. All other southern tribe wake up and shine ur eyes. Moderators hope I didn't insult any1 again?

Bro, very your own brodas from the south will soon come brand you an ipob tout!

Buhari is truly a hypocritical dullard.

Didn't he say Abacha didn't steal??, Why then is he expecting money looted by Abacha


Note the statement "illegally taken" not stolen, if it where to be GEJ it will be "stolen"; the southerners will start to applaud him. I am not in support of looting, but i don't believe in PMB's integrity. He is too hypocritical and bias for a national leader!

But after disputing, go thru all the coments above and draw your own conclusion. PDP or APC, DSS or EFCC or ICPC, No one cares about you other than their PRINCIPALS.

Politics / Re: Army Condemns Cowardly Attitude Of Soldiers Who Fled From Bokoharam by marnboy(m): 9:08pm On Oct 11, 2015
dearpreye:
Until you're seated on that seat at Aso Rock, you have no idea what battling hard and murderous terrorists mean. That was why we condemned the APC propaganda machine when it was boosting the morale of the terrorists by abusing GEJ and posting pictures online that destroyed the morale and bravery of our courageous soldiers. I pray we overpower and wipe out these infidels.

I'm not an expert in International relations and diplomacy but I do know that the Bush administration of the US goofed on its Middle East policy. The consequences are still there and may still be there for the next decades.

But since Obama took over I've never read or heard him openly attack former President Bush over his own policy on Iraq and Afghanistan. These guys are so intelligent and wise to know where politics and propaganda ends; they know government is a continuum. And they know every President will soon become a former one. That's how great nations handle their game.

Of course PMB and his party pandered to the erring emotions of their zombies. Now the reality is getting brighter and brighter. All of a sudden their two month talks of ending the insurgency has been pushed forward to December.

This is why everyone must support the government of the day- either by being it's core supporter OR its genuine critics. You need not pull down another to climb up.

Only Third World nations play politics with national security.

you do not need to go too far, how many times did gej castigate obj who is now the hero of the apc today? To the best of my knowledge none, yet we all know what obj did to the country! Gej is not a saint, but he is a guy in a million, nobody should compare him with buhari.

Politics / Re: Ministerial List: Buhari Begs PDP Senators - Vanguard by marnboy(m): 11:58pm On Oct 06, 2015
Built2last:
PMB is not out of order. It is called Lobbying in politics. Obama had to personally call almost all the congress men for Obamacare to sail through. Obama also lobbied the congress especially those in opposition for the bail out package after the recession to sail through. It is a norm in politics for the president to approach his opponents where he senses great opposition to his plans.

Dear Nairalanders, our democracy is growing by this act of Buhari. Checks and balances will be more rigid and no leader will take us for a ride. Indeed, i will prefer that any minister with proven acts of corruption should not scale through so that my generation who have plans for politics will watch their way ahead and shun corruption. Consequently, Nigeria will be better for it.

Finally, you are politically incorrect and outstandingly naive if you want PDP to die completely. That is not politics. Democracy thrives in opposition. Checks and balances which bring the needed change lies with the opposition because each party knows they will have to present their scorecard after four years. If you ask me, we need PDP to check the excesses of the ruling party, after all PMB was in the opposition for 16 years. So the wailing of PDP members is good.

One party system will keep us on a spot. How i wished PDP shared national assembly 50-50. Political lovers and observers would have had a swell time in the next four years. However, the current number means the take a bow and go will not work. All the ministers that took a bow in the past and went never delivered.

Guys democracy is hear...lets make it work and argue constructively not destructively.

Built2last said so.

This is the simple truth, making rubbish of people before employing them simply shows he doesn't have true faith in them. Well its not really to the ministers but Buhari believes he is the only upright person (holier than thou attitude) well guess he shares it with baba Iyabo.


The only comment i have seen here so far; there is a limit to what a presiden of a country should say in public. I may not be a Jonathan fan but i do respect his manner of speech in public. Pls someone should ask our dear presido to look for qualified and experienced SAs and media officers before the image of the nation is dented more.

easy4beno:
Firstly, I would like to say that I don't base my judgments on one side of a story, and I also have to say that your husband MAY be doing the wrong thing which I am made to believe that something must have triggered a man to go to that very extreme length.

However, from what I have read so far about your illustration, I think you are using the very wrong approach to handle an already wrong situation. They say two wrongs do not make a right and I think he's wrong and you are as well wrong with the curses you have been raining on your husband..

Now to my question, I want to believe that a man would not just wake up in a day to marry someone else, the question is, what has been happening all these days without you being sensitive to? Who has your husband been rolling with in terms of friends lately? Now to you, I want to believe that the marriage hasn't been working for a while now and you refused to do anything about it, for your husband's family to wake up one day to unseat you shows that you have not had a sound relationship with them for a long time, for crying out loud, this is someone you have given birth to three children for, so any forces from relations to crumble the marriage MAY be baseless because this is africa where you have to give birth to children for your in-laws to be pleased with you..

So my conclusion is that you played a significant role in pushing your husband out to another woman's hands and now I guess you are paying for it dearly, I understand that I may be wrong but something tells me I'm being just and fair with my conclusion. Now my advice for you now is to just be seeking the face of the Lord, pray HARD for God's direction, miracle may suddenly happen and it may also mean that you may have to move on with your life and children because dragging the kids to this kind of matter may be harmful to them and to their future..May two cents for you, I hope that you will take the right step!
Rational mind; u know one when u see one! I wonder when i see some kind of comments, u can't just get up one morning and break a marriage of ten years. D only advice that we can give her as u said is just prayers so that both of them can have a change of heart not curses.

The sectarian bigot op failed to realize that the north he now refer to is the same one he expect to reelect his clueless boss and is composed of not only Hausa and Fulani whom he lives to hate but many ethnic group. But the biggest blow comes from the fact that the article exposes gej as a greedy clueless drunk who lies, cheat and decieves the people he leads, why is he smuggling mischief into what has been agreed upon? Why does he abuse his power only for evil? Why doesn't he smuggle the chibok girls back to their parents? Why is he so bereft of goodness? What sort leader of sows secessionist rubbish from the very place that is suppose sow unity? True Nigerians would tell such a man no enough of the cruelty and wickedness go back to otueke!
