my people and tribalism.

Why don't you call it 'deviance' instead of shortcomings?
Every functioning society has its workplace culture that works well for them. Our cultures if properly harnessed could lead to greater efficiency.

The govt doing the clampdown is also guilty of the crime against the masses.

No source?

Isn't this terror attack?

Custom officers should check her well, hard drugs must be inside her under. Anambra people are wonderfully blessed in their field of hustle, pilot in day, carrying something else in the night, Madam Abike Dabiri said. she knows what going on in the country and outside the country

politics apart, let's give it to Ibos, even though I'm not one. You can't see their women hawking unapproved and harmful substance like Agbo, carrying basins in Lagos markets to covey things for buyers. If at all there is something called gender equality, they are closest in the continent to achieving that, as well as above global average.

As a Yoruba, I'd recommend we solve the myriads of challenges in our region such as the looming hijab civil war, uncharitable attitude of the northerners we are hosting, Benin camping of our fleeing sons and daughters, as well spate of criminality among our youths. If we don't solve these problems while talking about Ibos, it'll look like we are obsessed with them.

Oduduwa republic will be a spectacle. May God deliver my people.

mvem:
but ESN said they re not the ones killing policemen and burning stations

I never said so either.

Is the killing of the ESN commander not a Pyrrhic victory? can someone tell me the strategic benefit of such act.

The current presidency is incredibly gifted in starting things it can't finish.

Why do we Yoruba's clash with all our neighbours and visitors. This is too bad

This is an old news I guess.

My people this was how boko haram started. Very soon our peaceful southwest will turn to borno

Others are fighting war of independence and our heartless youths are stealing people's hearts.

I won't recommend any marriage between our sisters and Ibos, until our sisters explain why we Yoruba guys can't marry them.

If I comment on the last pix now they'll say I'm racist.

You sound like a land grabber though you might not be totally wrong. Historically, Lagos has never been part of the western region and has never been under Yoruba control. From crown colony to protectorate, to capital city, then to a state. It's somehow a shared city, which is why some people call it a no-mans-land with limited validity.

very good. we move!

Proud to be Yoruba for once!

The op must be demented. It's like saying Jews called themselves Israelis instead of Jews.

or we Yoruba's prefer oduduwa to Yoruba

She even described her purported marriage to alafin, Yoruba second in rank as perturbing to "family friend and colleagues"

We know a fine lady like this cannot accept to marry alafin but this is actually humiliating to the Yoruba race and Oyo people in particular.

Righteousness2:
Your wife is your Family!
What is Most Important Is to stand for the right and Honest Course!

You are wrong!

The basic duty of a wife is to be a destiny helper of a man. If an irresponsible man gets married, a good wife has a way of making him more responsible. If a man is at war with his family, a good wife reconciles not furthering the war! Remember, the gift of God bringeth joy and addeth no sorrow.

Be a musician, a prince, a king or any noble professional, a loyal wife should only be judged by how well she helped his husband get to the apogee or top of his destiny.

A man must strongly defend his wife, if a woman has a goal or fantasy which fundamentally alters the general interest of the man and his family, the woman is a bad seed that must immediately be uprooted and thrown away. If a man falls from royalty to commoner like harry or falls from stardom to a whiner like peter because of their marriage, then such marriage is not of God. Delilah and Jezebel are not bad examples for nothing!

It is an abomination for the tail to wag the dog. She is married into a family not the other way.

I believe that the biggest problem facing marriage today is the 21 century conception of love brought by the whites. Anybody who "feels" any attraction for another calls it "love". They get attracted to evil creatures and marry them.

Wives are help mates. That is why God demanded submission and loyalty from them, not love! Real love is not attraction, it is more of goodwill. That is why only Superiors love subordinates. God loves man, Man loves wife and parents love Children. The only way for a subordinate to love a superior is to obey him. Children are called to obey their parents, wives are called to submit to their husband while God told us that those who love him are only those who obey him and keep his commandments.

You cannot separate a man fro his own family and claim to love him. Never!

Monogamy:


Peter had problem with his mother not has...

A good mother would have moved on and support his family which I think his mum is doing...

stop coming off as senseless.

No, a good mother wants the best for her son. And it happened she rightly believed Lola wasn't good for him. Not just his mother, his senior brother and his own twin brother were all against her. If, in any way, you think they would have allowed a stranger destroy their son, then you need to check how you were raised. No good and well raised lady separates a man who relates well with his family when she marries him. Any good girl would have left the marriage. It's not worth the fight.

BTW, the word in bold should be 'supported' , Mr prof.

Monogamy:


What's your definition of abandon? Are you saying Peter don't have any contact with any of his family members?

Peter's grudges is mainly between his twin brother Paul... Which I believe they both have their reasons for keeping the grudges that so long.

Should Peter have married an Igbo Lady, what difference would it make?

What do you mean by "mainly" between his twin brother? peter has problem with every member of his family, including his mother!

Now, that's a prodigal son.

We Yoruba's are handling it with sophistication and maturity.

My people, it is such a shame that a major ethnic group like ours no longer mind fleeing from their homeland because of the unbridled lust for aso rock by our corrupt leaders, and we are being incredibly docile about it.

Which ethnic group marry their own women the most?

which ethnic group have the most successful married women career wise, in corporate world, business, entertainment etc?

Which ethnic group has the most family oriented culture that also gives women a place in decision making?

-- all Ibo! Ibos love their women the most.

Hausa do too but they are too clingy and see women as a prize they own. That's why you hardly see their women in the highest level of the career ladder. But they are far better than our people Yoruba's.

Out of the major ethnic groups, we Yorubas marry our own women the least. There was even a time on twitter our guys joined Ibos to troll our own sisters. It was even Ibos that defended the Yoruba girls at a stage. a Yoruba guy's first priority is to marry Ibo girl, if it fails as with most cases, he tries calabar, then Edo or delta. they only marry our sisters when they fail at this. Our guys are easily polygamous, even when the wife gives him enough children, and in many cases allow the woman to to provide for the family.

Obalatule:
So what do you hope to gain by being loudmouthed and bringing this information to Nairaland?

Fulanis are burning down our villages and we dissipate the few energy we have on Ibo threads. Something is wrong with we yorubas, really.

where then were these ones called Fulani?

Statement made!

seunmsg:
Congratulations to her. When we unite for a common purpose as a country, not even the US can stop us. Kudos to the Buhari administration for coming through for her. We hope she leads the organization well and show Nigeria’s exceptionalism to the rest of the world.

did our people support her?
