Geepee77:
After all set and done about my former caucasian(female) Viola which didn't turn out well, I ordered for another one all in the name of quality, I ordered from Jos and after payment, lockdown started and for 3 months I couldn't see what I ordered for and I gave up cos I assumed they have scammed me, what kept me going is that, anytime I call the guy he must pick and give status report, so I kept calm and waited. Along the line he said those my puppy's had been sold because of the effects on the lockdown and to avoiding feeding the dog because no one knows when the lockdown will end.
To cut the long story short, I've not heard from him in a while and I called him as usual for status report and he said he has only Male caucasian that's why he hasn't called, so he said I should wait a little that after selling all the male, he will let me know when female is available and I agreed. On a second thought, I said to myself instead of waiting for only God knows when, why don't I accept the male. I called the guy and he said this male set is more expensive than what I paid for and after much persuasion he agreed. We did video call and he showed me 5 male and asked me to select my Choice, they were all 6 weeks old. He has spent one week now with me.

Crime / Re: Suspected Nigerian Drug Peddler Stabs Police During Arrest In India by igbesachick: 8:32am On Nov 12, 2021
Goel:

I don't deny. Rural regions of Nepal and eastern portion of India still has lot of poverty.

the human rights protection in india is horrendous.

1) in china, my gay colleagues dare hold my hands flirting with me. during my India trip, i have
spot gay ppl several times (including Hegiras) . i even ventured to a gay park according to wiki sex . but all of them were shy and pretending not (or maybe no pretending) speaking english? are gay ppl all drop-outs from school in india?

2) in china, say, in my neighborhood , we have a bear bar, a gay sauna and a gay dating park. they are all within 20 minutes walk from my home. and i am living in a humble corner of the city, not even in
Shanghai . and my neighborhood is not a homo one.

3) in china, if a guy robs a gay of his money, the former will be convicted by heavier punishment . say, a robbery will put a guy in jail from 3 months to 7 months, then he gets 7 months. in nigeria, if the same happens, the robber will be punished , but the gay will be tied with a tyre and burnt to die. where does your india fall in this gay-human rights- spectrum?

4) leaving gay ppl aside, your india raping situation is so old and cliche, that i dont even bother to remind you of.

5) ALL we chinese are atheists , we have only 8 million caucasian muslim (xin jiang muslim) in china. the chinese muslim (Hui ) are fine. the caucasian West cares nothing of them. look at you, 210 million muslim and you are religionists too. dont make yourselves funny by saying atheists hate muslim. in our eyes, muslim and christianity are no more than desks and chairs. we have no emotion and no understanding to them . this is not a metaphor, it is litterally so. will you die for a flower or a chair because another says he likes oranges only ? in our chinese eyes, to classify a country by a religion is like to force itself to live in a 2 dimensiomal world while it is actually in a 3 dimentional one. we chinese are superior to you, we are above your religions, and we are not brainwahsed by any of your sermon spiels. we will kick the ass of any relogionist if he dares cause trouble in china, i mean, the terrorism and public preaching are both illegal in china. only stupid guys will kowtow to an elephant with monkey face or a white Jesus or a hairy Allah. It is a face-losing thing to believe in religions in china, while you guys even think we need to "brainwashed" to NOT believe in. come on, which sane person will kowtow to a white guy or an weird animal ?

6) you (plural form) simply can not understand chinese. you project your own images to china. between moral and immoral , there is amoral. and neither moral nor immoral knows the meaning of amoral and they both denounce each other with this amoral and say this is what the other is. china is not muslim-loving or muslim-hating. china is "a-muslim". china is "a-democratic" , "a-tiananmen", "a-racism", "a-indiaphobic", only the guys who care these issues think the "concerned party" think too ! so, that is why each indian and the most guys from poor countries, are "china experts".

7) you guys talk about Jack Ma and evergrande...... all these big shots that we chinese have no (if not negative) interest in, as if you are more concerned than we chinese . actually, Jack Ma is ridiculed by most chinese for his rigging and monopolizing retail market via Taobao , etc. and the evergrande is a postprandial issue (giving that not even a chinese economic university student can make sense or gain inner info for that) . you beggars like talking about rich country / ppl/ company.

cool finally, we come to your NE ppl. their lands were joined to india by the Brits in the colonial era, which means, they were not and are not part of india. even your best Olympic athletes come from NE. this clearly says, their body physique is obviously different from you guys' . they are superior, they are the kins of east asia, a part severed from Burma. you indian disgust us chinese by treating the NE ppl like animals. if we chinese are not as strong as right now, the NE ppl will suffer more from your undisguised contempt. when i visited India in 2018, i chanced on 2 NE ppl. they were humble and not as confident as i was (being a chinese in india). i felt sorry for them. but of course, we chinese will NEVER take them back to china. who wants poor population ? they had better stay with you. the same with Dalai Lama, that piece of old wizzard shiet better rot in India, a poo dropping in its own cesspool. the visas and chinise citizenship to returnee tibetans are more and more difficult nowadays, we dont even give a shiet to the poor basterds who wish to leave india and back to china and collect their wellfare in tibet . go see the long queue waiting for the tibetan return permits in china embassy. anyway, it is better for Dalai Lama to stay in India, instead of the West . in India, he is harmelss to china .
Culture / Re: The Reign And Death Of Last Hausa King Of Kano, Sarkin Kano Muhammadu Alwali II by KingOKON: 9:00pm On Oct 18, 2021
DanZubair:
Muhammadu Alwali
Muhammadu Dan Yaji, known as Muhammadu Alwali II (died 1807) was the last king of the Kano kingdom. His reign coincided with a period of upheavals in Sudanic History that saw a series of wars waged by the Fula People. In 1807, after a protracted struggle with Fula clans, Muhammadu Alwali was ambushed and assassinated at Burum-Burum in modern day Kano. His death marked the end of the Kutumbawa line of Hausa aristocrats in Kano and the fall of the 800 plus year old Bagauda Dynasty.

Muhammadu Alwali was the son of Sarki Yaji II and Baiwa. In 1781 he succeeded his brother, Dauda Abasama to become the third successive son of Yaji II to ascend the throne of Kano.

Reign
The Kano kingdom was consistently at war to maintain hold of trade routes and his reign came at a time when famine was a regular occurrence. These factors coupled with increased taxation by the aristocracy saw dwindling fortunes for the kingdom. Traders were abandoning the state for more favorable conditions in the Sahel. When Alwali became King, he immediately collected grains of sorghum and millet to prepare for war and famine. However, a famine devastated the city soon after.

Dirki
Dirki was a fetish object that was held sacred in Kano. It was made of a Quran covered in multiple layers of goat skin or cow hide introduced around the 16th century in the reign of Muhammadu Zaki. Alwali was asked to provide forty cows as a sacrifice to Dirki but he refused. He went as far as attacking the object with an axe and exposing its contents. The people then murmured that he will be expelled from Kano just as he as expelled the Quran from Dirki.

Ciroma Dan Mama
Over time, the Kano royal family had been divided into multiple factions. Since the first civil war in 1565, internal strife had ravaged the Kano royal house. a second civil war broke out after El Kutumbi’s death in 1648.
Alwali’s father Yaji, endured a bitter relationship with his brother, the then Sarki Muhammadu Sharefa and his sons who succeeded him. Yaji was exiled to a desolate life of penury. During this time, he heavily relied on a local farmer and tobacco seller from Katagum. When Yaji ascended the throne after the death of Alhaji Kabe, he adopted this figure as his son and gave him the prestigious title of Ciroma (Crown Prince), and entrusted the resources needed for the ascension of his sons in his hands. It is believed that this figure or his son, called Dan Mama was stripped of the title of Ciroma during Alwali’s reign who instead gave the title to his son. The deposed Ciroma, though scorned, continued to play a role in the Sultan’s court and would later play a pivotal role in his downfall. Tradition relates that his treachery sealed Alwali’s fate.

War with the Fula

Background
Alwali was already facing a struggle in securing his throne and the ascension of his son against the faction loyal to the lineage of his uncle Muhammadu Sharefa and another faction that contained the remnants of the Rumfawa in Kano. Unbeknownst to him, a more serious threat was looming. When Shehu Usman Dan Fodio’s war began in Gobir, he sent a letter to all Hausa Kings who had already sworn to support the King of Gobir. It is related that Muhammad Alwali was on the verge of accepting the Shehu’s message when he was dissuaded by Ciroma Dan Mama. The Ciroma is said to have then written to the Shehu offering his support in exchange for a hundred towns. Kano was home to a number of Fula clans who had begun settling since the 14th century including the Jobawa, Sullubawa, Danejawa, Yolawa, Yerimawa, Modibawa, Gyanawa, Zarawa, Toronkawa, Mundubawa, and Dambazawa. Many Fula chiefs had assumed various powerful titles in Kano, including the leadership of various towns. The Kutumbawa Kings had alienated themselves from their masses through their heavy taxation and open syncreticisms and the Fula also found allies in Hausa muslims and aggrieved peasants in Kano, led by Alkali Mallam Usman. These Hausas according to WF Gowers may have been just as many as the Fula. Muhammadu Bakatsine, the leader of the Jobawa, who were one of the most established Fula clans in Kano, had been with Dan Fodio in Gobir but returned to Kano after the Fulas defeat by Gobir at Tsuntua. The Shehu soon sent a letter to his supporters in Kano after which they withdrew from their communities and assembled in preparation for war.

Early Encounters
a group of the Shehu’s followers made for Kwazzazabo where they frightened the villagers and seized their grains and in the ensuing scuffle slew one of the farmers who had refused them access to his stock of grains. The Sarkin Bebeji immediately alerted Sarki Alwali who was then situated at the newly reinforced Takai. The King in trying to assess the situation sent a small force led by Gainaku and instructed him to burn the Fula compounds and seize whatever he pleased from them. Gainaku though succeeding in killing some of the fula was forced to retreat. Alwali then sent for Muhammad Bakatsine and accused him of treachery. The clan leader however denied any involvement and swore his innocence on a Quran but on his way back proceeded to seize the town of Gogel.
After consultation with his advisers, Alwali who still underestimated the severity of his situation then sent a military general, Barde Bakori with a force he deemed sufficient to disband the rebels but was also turned back. When the Barde returned to Alwali who had at that point left Takai and returned to Kano, the King faced different opinions from his advisers with one faction calling for a declaration of war and the other faction seeking a more diplomatic approach. The King had initially wanted to accept the Shehu’s call and he opted for the latter view. He put together a delegation which included Arab and local scholars who were granted an audience by the rebels but publicly humiliated and turned back. One of the delegates was said to have died of fright shortly after returning to Kano.

Kano’s First Assault
After rejecting his offer for peace, Alwali and his advisers decided to summon a faction of his troops led by the Sarkin Dawaki Ali and ordered them to capture the Fula leaders and women but to slay everyone else. Before they got to the Fula stronghold in Kwazzazabo, the rebels had already shored up their defenses while their leaders had withdrawn to Kogo in anticipation. When the Sarkin Dawaki and his troops broke initial resistance and made it into the Fula settlement, he instructed the Barde to set their huts on fire but the Barde insisted that they had to collect the Shehus flag first. This hesitation proved costly; As soon as the Barde collected the flag, he was greeted by a hoard of Fula warriors and even women. The Hausa horses were spooked by the pandemonium and in their retreat, the cavalry was confined to a narrow space due to trenches built by the Fula and were chased by a rain of arrows and spears. a lot of their soldiers fell off their horses and lost their lives, the Sarkin Dawaki barely escaped. The Fula gained horses, muskets, coats of mail, armors, swords, quilted armors, and many other weapons.

Expansion of the war
In the wake of the Fula victory against the Sarkin Dawaki, Sarkin Fulanin Dambarta, Malam Maiyaki, also known as Dan Tunku, who later founded the Kazaure Emirate switched his allegiance from Alwali to the Shehu. Alwali did not learn of this perfidy until it was too late. The Fula now also had the confidence and firepower to move across Kano. They soon made for the town of Godiya but were repelled with many losses by Dan Tama, the ancestral ruler of Godiya. They eventually broke their defenses and burnt the city to the ground and neighboring towns submitted to avoid the same fate. During their expeditions, they also pillaged Fula herders who wouldn’t join their struggle. They then took Karaye after a small resistance but immediately saw an army led by the Dan Tama of Godiya and Barde Bakori. Neither side expected to encounter the other. The Dan Tama and Barde attacked nonetheless but the Fula had taken up strong positions around the river bed and repelled their attackers. Karaye was the first major town to fall to the Fula. While in Karaye, Mallam Musa arrived and was given the Flag for the wad against Zazzau after which he proceeded to his destination. In order to use their superior mobility and field knowledge, as well as to avoid the possibility of facing the combined forces of Kano, Katsina, and Daura, the Fula dispersed their armies to force Alwali to do the same. They soon converged near Tofa and were promptly attacked by a small Hausa force from Tatarawa and Damargu which they repelled and captured many horses from. The Fula captured Tofa, Bichi and then Tatarawa.

Enlisting of Tuaregs
Alwali decided to acquire the services of the Tuaregs of Adar led by Tambari Agumbil who had experience fighting against the Fula in Gobir. Agumbil received the handsome sum of four million cowries to come into Alwali’s service. Agumbil’s forces were strengthened by a band of Hausa warriors with whom he attacked the Fula at Tatarawa. Their attack sent the Fula to flight but they soon retaliated with a flurry of arrows aimed at the Hausa wing and Agumbil came to their aid, immediately losing his life in the process. His forces were in disarray and a massacre ensued. They followed the retreating forces to Tomas and collected prisoners and booty.

Successes
The King decided to change his tactic. He reinforced his experienced soldiers and directed them to engage in minor assaults but to avoid open battles, hoping that attrition would wear the rebels out. His new strategy yielded positive results and afforded the Hausa army the time to regroup. The King then sent out raiders as a decoy to fool the rebels and in the resulting battle, the Fula lost many soldiers and were forced to retreat. The Fula then proceeded to take Madaci and Jalli but lost Malam Dan Zabuwa in the process.

The Battle of Dan Yaya
After Madaci and Jalli fell, the King himself set out of Kano with a large force which included a heavy cavalry of seven hundred horsemen. He soon took and razed Dawaki which was situated between Madaci and Jalli. His army then occupied the town but were subject to constant harassment by a concentrated force of rebels using arrows and guerrilla tactics, trying to draw his cavalry out to open field.
It was here that Alwali learned of his betrayal by Ciroma Dan Mama and Sarkin Fulanin Danbarta who both reinforced Fula forces. The Ciroma’s forces would account for a significant portion of Kano’s army. Alwali proceeded to Dan Yaya and while reinforcements from Bornu were impeded by a Fula blockade, he welcomed the Kings of Katsina and Daura and their armies. The Fula were however further reinforced by their kin from Ringim, Jahun and other areas.
At Dan Yaya, three to four months of fighting took place and it is said that up to ninety three fights took place within this period. The King however did not fully commit his army until the last three days. It is possible he was waiting for further reinforcements from Daura, Katsina, Bornu and other placers but this did not materialize.
Alwali then took to the battlefield himself and launched a heavy attack on the rebel stronghold in Sabon Ruwa and many houses were burnt. However, the rebels were soon reinforced by their allies in neighboring areas. Alwali was then pushed back from Sabon Ruwa with both sides recording heavy losses. The Kings army attacked again in the evening and more reinforcements came to Alwalis aid from Daura. Kano forces launched a less intense attack in the morning. During this time, the Fula camp was running short of supplies and contemplated retreating to Gaya to instead aid Muhammad Bakatsine who had so far been unable to capture what would be perhaps the most important town in Kano. They argued against this retreat believing it would reinvigorate the King and his army’s morale, instead deciding to roll the dice on one last major attack. The Fula came out in the open field and the Kings army immediately charged. The battle started from Maghrib prayers (around 7:00PM) until Subhi Prayers (around 5:00AM) when the Fula were able to stealthily set fire to the Hausa camp which contained their women and supplies. On seeing this, the Hausa retreated towards their tents and the battle soon became a slaughter in favor of the Fula.

As the fire razed through their bivouacs, Alwali fled for Kano with his sons and other officials. The Kings of Katsina and Daura also fled home with what was left of their armies while the remaining soldiers fought a losing battle against the rampaging rebels. The Fula took most of Kano soon after.

Fall of Kano and Exile to Zazzau
After his crushing defeat at Dan Yaya, Alwali reviewed his situation with his advisors and clerics. He once again sent another delegation to the rebels, agreeing to surrender to their demands while remaining in office as a tributary. His offer was rejected and was told that dialogue was not an option and that they would attack Kano on the 12th of Rabi’ al-awwal. He fled Kano for Zazzau forty days before the due date.

Last Stand
While the Kano Chronicle suggests he was immediately turned out of Zazzau, it is widely accepted that he stayed in Zazzau for a few months. During this time, Gaya, which was ruled by the lineage of Alwali’s grandmother resisted the forces of Muhammad Bakatsine and remained loyal to the King. This inspired Alwali to make one last stand. He ordered Sarkin Gaya Gujabu to launch an attack on Muhammad Bakatsine who had moved and assembled a force at Wudil. Gujabu was defeated with heavy losses. Gaya was soon overrun by the forces of Muhammad Bakatsine and Gujabu was slain. Meanwhile, Alwali had already left Zazzau for Burum-Burum which was led by his relative Wambai Tagwai when he learnt of Gaya’s fall. The Fula soon assembled a heavy force led by Muhammad Bakatsine and launched a relentless attack on Burum-Burum.

Death
Burum-Burum withstood the Fula onslaught for several weeks but eventually succumbed to the unabated assault. While the Kings son Umaru escaped, Alwali lost his life in the clash that ensued. His death signaled the end of the Kutumbawa and the fall of a dynasty that according to the Kano Chronicle trace their lineage to Bayajidda.

Aftermath
After the King’s death, and with no leader to rally behind, the rest of Kano submitted. Alwali’s son Umaru fled towards Damagaram where he met the ousted Kings of Katsina and Daura. The King of Katsina would establish a kingdom in Maradi where his descendants use the title of “Sarkin Katsina” and that of Alwali use “Sarkin Kano”. a descendant of the King of Daura was reinstated as the King of Daura by the British in 1904.

After a few months, Dan Fodio appointed Suleiman Abahama as the first Fula King of Kano, subject to the Sokoto Kingdom. The Fula leaders of the war soon assumed various titles. Alkali Usman who led the initial Hausa supporters of the war though receiving much respect did not gain much status or power. His faction were dubbed as “Hausawa”.

Ciroma Dan Mama would receive his one hundred towns of mostly hamlets. Him and his Hausa followers were dubbed as “Kutumbawa”. Later on when the affairs of Kano became difficult to administer for the Fula kings, Ciroma Dan Mama helped acquaint them with the Hausa administrative system and practices. The rest of the people of Kano were characterized by the pejorative term “Habe” by the new royal house and subject to grating conditions.

Hausa resistance would continue through erratic raids by Ningi which came under muslim Hausa scholars led by Malam Hamza who opposed the discriminatory practices of the Fula Kings against the Habe, Maradi which became the new home of the deposed Hausa aristocracy, and the Kingdom of Damagaram. The latter, under Ahmadu Kuran Daga (Maje Rinji) gathered a formidable arsenal of thousands of locally manufactured canons and muskets and was on the verge of taking the Kano capital after sending the Kings forces into retreat when an illness and news of a French invasion sent him racing back home but not before collecting a great haul of booty from Kano.The Fula King at the time, Aliyu Babba, had paid 30 million cowries for intensive prayers and it was believed these prayers were why Rinji’s assault seized....

Pets / Re: How Do I Stop My Caucasian Puppy From Biting by Kelvin30286063(m): 7:09am On Jun 29, 2021
superemmy:
hi Guys,


My caucasian pup is fond of play play biting. I'm tired because his biting is becoming excessive.


He Has toys and he is well behaved when he sees food.


He is always hyperactive and always relaxed.

He isnt the type that makes noise but the type that bites.


how do i restrain his behaviour

he uses bite to tell you he's hungry or he wants to play or he wants to sleep.

Real advice here... All dogs bite at infancy. Even my own agbaya still plays with me with her big teeth even though she's 7 months old already. Lol
That's why your a proverb says the teeth a dog used to play with her puppies, she also use to bite them. Lol
They naturally see biting as playing and biting as killing too. Mad creatures. grin
What I do is, I threaten my caucasian with a rod in hand so she doesn't come near me. I don't strike her though.
I only allow her near me when I'm doing tick checking and she knows she dare not bite me.
If you keep shouting STOP anytime she bites you, she will eventually get the message and won't bite you anymore.

Me: Yes. In 2017 and 2018

VO: So both your kids are US citizens?

Me: Yes. But there’s three of them actually.

VO: And will you be traveling with your family? Husband and the kids?

Me: My husband will not be going with me because of his work obviously but my children will join me at some point. They’re too young to be separated from me for the entire length of my study. I plan to go alone now then they’ll join me later.

VO: That’s okay. I will be approving your visa. Will hold onto your passport. Take your i20. You’ll need it at the port of entry and this slip will show how to retrieve your passport. He hands me the white slip as my heart bursts in gratitude to God.

Fam, Not a single document was checked and I went there armed with all my delivery details, zero balance, bank statements, certificates, etc

I want to appreciate Chibertha. I remember reaching out to her when I saw she had a similar situation as me and she gave me a very vital tip that helped me.

Finally, I’ll like to say that I’m not sure that enough emphasis is placed on HOW you fill your form. I think that a huge percentage of the decision to approve or refuse the visa has already been made by what your form and profile says. Don’t outsource it to anyone. Do it yourself. No one knows you better than you and when you’re not sure, ask questions and get it right on the form.

After all is said and done, the Grace of God is the most important factor. That day, as we stood on the queue hearing everyone get their interview done, the black VO (there were three of them that day and the other two were caucasian) did not give anyone no matter what they said. I remember my heart beating so fast. So many refusals that day. I’m just thankful to God!!!

N.B Apologies for the lengthy post.


Wow, fantastic job well-done. I really like your Interview. It should you are really prepared for it.

Congrats once more, I will like to seen some advice from you because we something similar.

I plan to study study management information system at Bowie State University, Admission and I-20 secured.

I own IT firm that service telecoms and banks while my wife work with a National Oil Agency in Nigeria.

I plan to go with my family, my child is 7-8 months old and my marriage is less than a year. I think is enough reason to go with them.

My wife will be on a year Sabatical leave to go with me.

Please advice !!!

Pets / Diary Of My Caucasian *HERCULES* by Geepee77(m): 5:24pm On Jul 19, 2020
After all set and done about my former caucasian(female) Viola which didn't turn out well, I ordered for another one all in the name of quality, I ordered from Jos and after payment, lockdown started and for 3 months I couldn't see what I ordered for and I gave up cos I assumed they have scammed me, what kept me going is that, anytime I call the guy he must pick and give status report, so I kept calm and waited. Along the line he said those my puppy's had been sold because of the effects on the lockdown and to avoiding feeding the dog because no one knows when the lockdown will end.
To cut the long story short, I've not heard from him in a while and I called him as usual for status report and he said he has only Male caucasian that's why he hasn't called, so he said I should wait a little that after selling all the male, he will let me know when female is available and I agreed. On a second thought, I said to myself instead of waiting for only God knows when, why don't I accept the male. I called the guy and he said this male set is more expensive than what I paid for and after much persuasion he agreed. We did video call and he showed me 5 male and asked me to select my Choice, they were all 6 weeks old. He has spent one week now with me.

Petlover, Nairalander, Doglover, Dogbreeder and the rest. Meet my beautiful caucasian puppy, his name is HERCULES
He's 7 weeks old
Very Agile and Active
Bond with me the next day
Loves eating

Hello. I have Baby Africa Yellow Monkeys for sale and Baby Baboons for sale.
If you are looking for a monkey pet, go for babies/infants. Why? Because they grow up to know you and your family members as their master. You get used to them before they start growing teeth. You get to understand their mood and gain their total confidence. You will also understand how to bathe and feed them. They don't bite like you think.

Monkeys are the best pet you can ever dream of having in your house. They are bundle of fun, they brings smile to your face. They are easy to train with dogs too.

In a few months/years you will be looking for this kind of preaching because Christianity will have no answers for you. Even under lockdown, they are still milking their gullible sheep. Nonsense.

https://youtu.be/a-U3LK7kxHU

I don't know where they select you guys from?

Do you people have like a special class of Illiterate demon possessed individuals who are sent out these days?

What has Jesus Christ got to do with Homosexuality?! You just putting your pea-sized brain ignorance on display, right?!

First, I don't know where they select some of you illiterates I encounter here on Nairaland from.
Who told you Jesus first of all was a White caucasian?
Of What importance/relevance has the colour of Jesus's Skin got to do with the importance of the Salvation plan He brought of which His life that was Sinless attested to that fact.

The ever first drawings of Jesus Christ were 200 years (2 Centuries) after Jesus has ascended back to Heaven. The Earliest Christians starting from His Disciples were never interested in what colour His Skin was. The drawings by the Semitic people of Jesus Christ two hundred years after his ascension are more brownish and quite different from the drawings of the White caucasian Christians who started drawing their own white racial representation of Jesus 400 years after the Semitic People.

The Ethiopian Christians drawing of Jesus 300 years before Muhammad and Islam also contrast differently to the drawings of Jesus by either the Semitic Christians or the White caucasian Christians in Rome. Everyone drew Jesus according to his own racial feature. The Semitic Christians that is the Jews, Syrians, and others like the Ethiopian, Libyans Christians, etcetera of the old World who were first Christians before Islam came through with the Sword and had many of their descendants as Muslims today.

These African Christians drew their racial features into the representation of Jesus and theirs was different from the White caucasian Christians of Byzantine and Rome also different to the oldest ones by the Semitic people as found in Syria. The Semitic people are usually Brown. Everyone drew Jesus Christ according to how their racial skin looked and this is because No one knows how Jesus Christ looked like because the Disciples who were first with him and others like the Africans: Ethiopians, Libyans, etcetera who lived in the very period of Jesus Christ ascension to Heaven were never interested in what he looked like. That was not the most important thing to them. It was the Salvation He brought them that they were concerned about. 100 years after Jesus Christ ascended back to Heaven. No one even drew how he looked like. Infact, Jesus was merely represented by symbols like anchor, etcetera and not by full pictorial representation of Him.

The first ever drawing of Jesus Christ was in 235AD found in Syria. That is 235 years after the ascension of Jesus Christ.

Nothing of this Racial based Religious agitation and ideologies will bring Peace to the World.
1) The Jews with Judaism
2) The Arabs with majorly Sunni Islam and the need for everyother Muslims from other Nations to speak and read the qur'an in Arabic, their language.
3) The White Caucasians with their Seperatism and other racist groups, etcetera
4) The Black Hebrew Israelites and Black Nation of Islam with their teaching that all White People are Devils and that only Black Man will be saved and their teaching that the domination of white man ended in 1914.
5) The Jehovah Witness with their 144,000 instead of the Israelites the Bible talked about. It is suddenly recalculated as 144,000 Jehovah Witnesses in America that partake in the Memorial meal of the Lord and their failed and New light understanding on 1914. When formerly, it was that Christ returned invisibly. Even Beth-Sarim was set up by Rutherford to welcome them, etcetera and their numerous failed prophecies.
6) The Biafra, Oduduwa, Arewa, Niger Delta agitations
7) The Indian Hindu/Sikh Vs the Pakistani Islam opposition, etcetera.


All these aggression and agitations will all fail even if Africans, China, US, Saudi Arabia, Islam, Biafra, etcetera become World Power. It means nothing as there would never be Peace on Earth. Only till the Kingdom of God comes. Jesus Christ would be the Ruler. There is no racial dichotomy or gender in Heaven or Marriage. The Incorruptible Body we would have won't have all that need for all that Nonsense that we do need here on Earth.

It is only our Corruptible Body here that discriminates against our different racial or tribal features. By the way, na today you know say Chinese dey discriminate against Blacks but not all Chinese because there are some Spirit filled Chinese Christians who are also facing persecution too just like the Blacks from the Chinese Totalitarian/Dictatorial government but who despite that have continued to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ that is for all men to draw into one Big family. Individuals of different races and bloodlines into one with Jesus Christ.

Satan is playing with your eternal destiny arguing about useless things like the skin of Jesus Christ till you turn up in Hell then your foolishness will then become evident.


This is the first drawing of Jesus Christ found in Syria 235 years after the death, ressurection, and ascension of Jesus Christ. Notice how different it is to the ones of Jesus Christ drawn by White caucasian Christians who are only drawing a Jesus Christ that resembles their racial features. Nowhere in the Bible does it talk about Jesus Christ having a White feature. Now, if you as a West African draw Jesus Christ as having black features. That's your own problem but these debate as to how Jesus Christ looks is one of the Stupidest debate I have ever seen.

Galatians 3:1 NLT — Oh, foolish Galatians! Donnie and every other Black Hebrew Israelite! Who has cast an evil spell on you? For the meaning of Jesus Christ’s death was made as clear to you as if you had seen a picture of his death on the cross.

I have been following your thread and learning,I really appreciate the effort, dedication to share in this thread and share knowledge. Thank you. I have never owned or trained a Dog but I admire alot, hope to soon own one. I recently moved to a new place self contain and have 3 neighbours(self contain too) there isnt much space in the compound tho, but my flat is the closest to the backyard and there is a small burglary veranda, my immediate neighbour has a 2 year old daughter, I am concerned the barking at night might wake up the baby and make them unhappy(not sure tho) Now my questions;
1. What breed will you advice a 1st time owner? I personally like the CO, GSD and bull mastiff?
2. How do instill discipline in the pup, especially when you need it to follow regulations?
3. How much did you spend averagely month from 2months to 7/8months and also how much do you spend monthly now its an adult?
4. Are there drugs or things given as PREVENTION against PARVO?
5. Since garlic& ginger are good for boosting immune system in Human and poultry (have a small poultry), will it be safe to say I can incorporate sparingly in the dogs meals.
Making plans and saving to buy a Female of any of the breed I decide on based on advice's and considerations.
Thank you.

This post is long but i advice you to read it all.

It all depends on time. Are u always busy or do u have enough time to spare. If u have time, then u can go for any breed of ur choice. I believe that even a kangal, caucasian,cane corso can be really friendly if they are well socialized. Take her for walks daily(exercise is key), introduce her to ur friends and neighbors, let her play with ur neighbors daughter from a young age and remember to always be consistent with this practice.
In terms of feeding, It all depends on what u have and what ur dog likes. U can go for home cooked meals like chicken and rice with eggs, indomie and sardines, fresh fish mixed with oatmeal or pap. Or u can decide to go for processed foods like diamond dry food, booster, royal canine, and Can food.
Ensure not to give ur dog cooked bones, chocolate (bounvita,Milo e.t.c), garlic , ginger, avocados, salty foods, fatty foods, etc.
It is essential to bath ur pup twice a week because pups tends to get dirty a lot(u can reduce the amount of baths once they are older). Get a dog soap with a tick and flea removing effect. Clean ur dogs body properly after every bath and put a mouth guard to prevent her from licking her body until it is well dried. Get a grooming brush and brush at least once a week if u are to get a long coated puppy.
Ask around to know the best veterinarian in ur neighborhood. Let the vet administer dhpp vaccine first at 6 weeks,then 10 weeks and lastly 14 weeks. Give anti rabbies vaccine at about 6 months of age. Deworm the pup regularly.
Training starts as early as possible. Go on YouTube to see easy steps in training your dog to sit, stay, and other basic things. Try to monitor her pooping pattern. Most pups poop early in the morning and immediately after meals. Take her out immediately to ur desired spot for her to do her business(note: U have to be patient with her cause she might tend to waste time before pooping). Continue this for months and u will not have any problem with her pooping.
Remember to pet ur dog as much as possible to create DAT tight bond. Clean the area were she stays and do not hesitate to call ur vet if something goes wrong.

Guide to Raising a Puppy When You Work Full Time
Raising a puppy while working is tough, but it can be done.
Puppies have different needs depending on their age. After those intense first few weeks, things ease off. a combination of planning, friends, and paid help will certainly be a great support for you.
Leaving a Puppy Home Alone
It’s a mistake for a puppy to be constantly in your company. This can make them over-dependent on people. This means they won’t learn the skill of being alone.
a lot of parent come home to ruined carpets, chewed up shoes or scratched doors are a frustrating reality for many pet parents.
One of the factors that is disturbing while we leave our puppy home alone is knowing how long the puppy can hold their bladder. And for this, there’s a simple equation.
* Take the puppy’s age in months and add one. This is the number of hours they can hold their bladder.
* For example, a two-month-old pup can hold for three hours max
* a four-month-old pup can hold for five hours
This equation levels out at around 6 – 7 months, with no dog being comfortable holding their pee above eight hours.
In practical terms, leaving a puppy home alone while at work, means you’ll need to give the pup comfort breaks at the appropriate times. Excluding comfort breaks means risking the puppy getting confused about potty training, therefore, leading to an untrained dog.
Thus leaving a puppy alone for 8 hours isn’t great for any four-legger regardless of age. While it’s technically possible for a young adult dog to hold on this long, a puppy needs frequent toilet breaks plus the stimulation of company.
Let’s say your bundle of fun is 8-weeks old. They need toilet breaks at least every three hours (for more options see the Toilet Training section.) Somehow they need walks outside for potty training and a game to amuse them.
This means planning ahead.
Your options include:
* Popping home in your breaks
* Having a friend or neighbor call in
* Employing a dog walker or puppy sitter to drop by
* Leaving pup with a friend
* Doggie daycare
Keeping Your Puppy Happy
People have strong opinions about whether raising a puppy while working full time is fair to the dog. Their main objection is that puppies need companionship and plenty of play. Of course, it fills you with sadness to think your pup might miss out, so what to do with a dog while at work?
Rule #1 is to leave the puppy pleasantly tired. This means plenty of play before heading out to work. Leave a puppy tired and they’ll snooze through their first comfort break. Problem one sorted!
Rule #2 is to give the puppy plenty to occupy him/her in between visits. As well as the friend playing with the puppy, have a variety of toys and games pre-prepared for them to pop in with your pup when they leave.

Tell us about your dog bad behavior and let’s help to finds a solution.

How the Neanderthals became the Basques
David Noel
<davidn@aoi.com.au>
Ben Franklin Centre for Theoretical Research
PO Box 27, Subiaco, WA 6008, Australia.


What happened to the Neanderthals?

From a combination of old and new evidence, it appears that at last we have a satisfactory answer to the age-old question of 'What Happened to the Neanderthals?'. If the current reasoning is correct, their descendants are still with us, and we call them the Basques.

This theory therefore simultaneously answers a second age-old question, 'What is the Origin of the Basques'? 

Robert J Sawyer has recently published his book "Hominids" [2], a fictional account of an interaction between Sapiens humans and Neanderthals, but drawing on the latest scientific research about Neanderthals. 

This research included studies of DNA extracted from bones of Neanderthal remains. The account mentions five months of painstaking work to extract a 379-nucleotide fragment from the control region of the Neanderthal's mitochondrial DNA, followed by use of a polymerase chain reaction to reproduce millions of copies of the recovered DNA. 

This was carefully sequenced and then a check made of the corresponding mitochondrial DNA from 1,600 modern humans: Native Canadians, Polynesians. Australians, Africans, Asians, and Europeans. Every one of those 1,600 people had at least 371 nucleotides out of those 379 the same; the maximum deviation was just 8 nucleotides. 

But the Neanderthal DNA had an average of only 352 nucleotides in common with the modern specimens; it deviated by 27 nucleotides. It was concluded that Homo sapiens and Neanderthals must have diverged from each other between 550,000 and 690,000 years ago for their DNA to be so different. 

In contrast, all modern humans probably shared a common ancestor 150,000 or 200,000 years in the past. It was concluded that Neanderthals were probably a fully separate species from modern humans, not just a subspecies: Homo neanderthalensis, not Homo sapiens neanderthalensis. 

Looking now at the evidence for the theory that the Basques are descended principally from Neanderthals, everything suddenly falls into place, and the supposition becomes almost self-evident. 

Location: The 'home country' of the Neanderthals is well known to have been western Europe. One source says that they "dominated this area for at least a quarter of a million years". Many of the best Neanderthal specimens have originated from the Iberian Peninsular. The Basque Country, lying on the western side of the Pyrenees and on the border between Spain and France, fits in neatly with this location. 



Some Neanderthal sites. Note concentration in the Basque area. From [12]

The Basques are well-known to have distinctive body characteristics. Kurlansky says "Ample evidence exists that the Basques are a physically distinct group. There is a Basque type with a long straight nose, thick eyebrows, strong chin, and long earlobes" [1]. 

Basque skulls tend to be built on a different pattern. In the early 1880s, a researcher reported "Someone gave me a Basque body and I dissected it, and I assert that the head was not built like that of other men" [1]. 

These qualitative differences are indicative, but quantitative evidence, with presence or absence of features, or items being present in different numbers, has greater weight in deciding whether specimens belong to the same or different species. Powerful quantitative evidence comes from a consideration of blood factors. 

Human blood is classified according to various parameters, the most important of which are ABO and Rhesus characteristics. In ABO, blood may contain the 'a' factor (giving a-group blood), the 'B' factor (B-group), both 'a' and 'B' (AB blood), or neither (O blood). The a and B factors act as antigens, and if blood containing one or both of them is transferred to a person whose blood does not already contain them, and therefore has the corresponding antibody, adverse reactions occur. Group O blood contains neither antigen but has both antibodies, and can typically be transferred without reaction to any recipient.

Some 55% of Basques have Group O blood, one of the highest percentages in the world [3]. 


Blood Groups. From [11]

Even stronger evidence comes from the Rhesus factor, discovered only in 1940. The blood of most humans (and, apparently, all other primates [6]) contains this factor, and is called Rhesus-positive or Rh+ blood. Blood lacking this factor is called Rhesus-negative. 

The Basques are well-known to have the highest percentage (around 33%) of Rhesus-negative blood of any human population [2], and so are regarded as the original source of this factor. In the United States, some 15% of the 'European' population are Rh-negative, while the percentage in the 'Asian' and 'Black' population is much less than this. 

Possession of Rh-negative blood can be a major disadvantage for a human population. a Rh-negative woman who conceives a Rh-positive child with a Rh-positive man will typically bear her first child without special problems. However, because of intermingling of fluids between mother and foetus, the first pregnancy builds up antibodies to Rh+ blood in the woman which typically attack the blood of her subsequent Rh+ children, causing them to miscarry, be stillborn, or die shortly after birth (infant haemolytic disease [6]). This phenomenon is unknown elsewhere in nature, although it can occur with artificial crosses between species, as in mule production [6]. 

The scenario so far then is this. Around 600,000 years ago, in southern Europe, a species of man separated off from the ancestral line, and we call this species Homo neanderthalensis, the 'N-people'. The blood of this species contained none of the factors a, B, or Rh. 

Much later, possibly around 200,000 years ago in Africa, the main human line had picked up the a, B, and Rh factors (possibly from other primates, the Rhesus factor is named after the Rhesus monkey or macaque), and by then could be classed as Homo sapiens, the 'S-people'. 

In competition between related species or races, antibodies in their blood are a powerful genetic advantage for those who possess them when competing against those who don't. History has many examples of European settlers who quite unintentionally won out against native populations because the latter had no antibodies against diseases such as measles which the Europeans brought with them. 

In the present scenario, a woman of the N-people (Basque, Rh-) who partnered with a man of the S-people (non-Basque, Rh+) would be likely to bear no more than a single child of the partnership. 'Mixed marriages' in humans are not usually genetically disadvantageous, but in this case they would be. The effect would be a continuing reduction in the N-people population as 'mixed' couples produced only a single child, half the nominal population-maintenance rate. 

There are other physical characteristics of humans which are typically associated with Rh-negative blood, but which in the present scenario would be regarded as belonging to the N-people. These include early maturity, large head and eyes, high IQ [6], or an extra vertebra (a 'tail bone' -- called a 'cauda'), lower than normal body temperature, lower than normal blood pressure, and higher mental analytical abilities [5]. 

Another highly distinguishing feature of the Basques is their language, which is related to no other on earth. According to [3], its ancestor was "spoken in western Europe before (possibly long before) the ancestors of all other modern western European languages". This source states that the most strenuous efforts at finding other relatives for Basque have been complete failures. 

People have unsuccessfully tried to connect Basque with Berber, Egyptian and other African languages, with Iberian, Pictish, Etruscan, Minoan, Sumerian, the Finno-Ugric languages, the caucasian languages, the Semitic languages, with almost all the languages of Africa and Asia, living and dead, and even with languages of the Pacific and of North America. Basque absolutely cannot be shown to be related to any other language at all [3]. 

The structure of the Basque language is also very distinctive, it is said to contain only nouns, verbs, and suffixes. The language strongly defines the Basque people [8]. In the Basque Language, called Euskera, there is no word for Basque. The only word defining a member of the group is Euskaldun, or Euskera speaker. The land is called Euskal Herria -- the land of Euskera speakers. 

In the present scenario, Basque is the descendant of a spoken language originated by the N-people, independently of (and possibly at a much earlier time than) the languages of the S-people. 

In an interesting study, Philip Lieberman [7] has looked at the mouth cavities and other presumed speech production features of Neanderthal fossils. According to his evaluation, Neanderthal people would have had difficulty in pronouncing the vowel 'ee'. This vowel is missing from normal Basque pronunciation [9]. 

If the present scenario is valid, then the Basques, mostly stemming from the N-people, would of course be somewhat distinct genetically. In [3] the question is asked, "Are the Basques genetically different from other Europeans?" , with the answer, "Apparently, yes. Recently the geneticist Luiga Luca Cavalli-Sforza has completed a gene map of the peoples of Europe, and he finds the Basques to be strikingly different from their neighbours. The genetic boundary between Basques and non-Basques is very sharp on the Spanish side. On the French side, the boundary is more diffuse: it shades off gradually toward the Garonne in the north. These findings are entirely in agreement with what we know of the history of the Basque language". 

The social relationships of the Basques with the rest of the world have been quite unusual for a distinctive human group. While always protecting their unique and separate identity, they have also always striven to interact, cooperate with, and sometimes lead the rest of the world. 

Kurlansky points out the remarkable contributions the Basques have made to world history [1]. They were the explorers who connected Europe to the other continents in the Age of Exploration, in trade they were among the first capitalists, experimenting with tariff-free international trade and monopoly breaking, and in the industrial revolution they became leading shipbuilders, steelmakers, and manufacturers. 

At the same time, the Basques have always been regarded as 'different', and so inevitably subjected to discriminatory treatment and (sometimes savage) persecution, as in the Franco years [3]. In my book 'Matrix Thinking' [4] I have examined the underlying forces driving interactions between human groups, using the term SIOS, and the way groups recognize and act on differences between those inside and outside their own group. 

Genetic differences are one of the most powerful recognition signals in this process, and so it cannot be unexpected that the Basques have suffered in this way. Nowadays such events are regarded in a very negative light, as pointlessly discriminatory. In the Basque case there is some rare justification for this -- a non-Basque man pairing with a Basque women might have expected to have only one child of the marriage, before recent medical procedures got round the Rhesus-negative problem. 

Language differences are also very powerful SIOS recognition signals, and it is interesting to look at the Basque case. The Basque language, while retaining its own distinct structure, has heavily borrowed words from other languages. Other languages have borrowed very few words from Basque, regarded as an 'inferior' language, and those that have come over often have had an uncomplimentary sense. As an example, Spanish has borrowed 'izquierdo' (meaning left, as in left-handed) from Basque, and words meaning 'left' often have a negative connotation (in English, 'gauche' and 'sinister' are from the French and Latin for 'left'). 

It has been suggested [5] that the Basques were the original inhabitants of Europe, and the architects of Stonehenge and similar megalithic structures. These constructions apparently used a unique system of measurement based on the number 7 (instead of 10, 12, or 60), representing a separate origin of a mathematical system.

To round out the present scenario, it is suggested that the present world population is a complex hybrid mixture of at least two human species, one classed as Homo neanderthalensis, the other (or others -- if the a and B blood factors originated from separate species) as Homo sapiens. The genes from these species are now so intermixed (as in cultivated roses) as to make the species name indeterminate. 

Further genetic analysis, concentrating on the Basques, may reveal more on this. Research should cover both nuclear DNA, controlling sexually-inherited traits such as blood groups, and mitochondrial DNA, passed on unchanged from mother to child. For reasons given above, the N-people mitochondrial DNA may have now been bred out completely from modern world populations. 

Perhaps the Human Genome project needs extension to cover the possible mix of origins. It would also be of interest to check whether any known Neanderthal skeletons had an extra vertebra. 

There is an extensive website covering recorded Neanderthal fossils [10], and the information there generally supports the suggestion that the species have merged, with later N-people more similar to the S-people than older specimens. 

Supplement 1

When the article above was first made available on the Web in 2002, nine years, it contained some perhaps controversial suggestions. 

Among these suggestions were that the Neanderthals had not become extinct as a result of competition with 'superior' modern humans; that instead, Neanderthals had merged with other humans to form a mixed, single modern species (Homo sapiens); and that the Basque people of the western Pyrenees had the largest genetic inheritance from the Neanderthals in their DNA. 

The influence of blood groups on human inheritance was looked at, and it was explained that while the nuclear DNA (the main DNA considered in inheritance) of Basques might well have more Neanderthal inheritance than average, their mitichondrial DNA (passed on directly from mother to child) might have had all Neanderthal components bred out. 

This was because infant haemolytic disease, where a Rhesus-negative mother mating with a Rhesus-positive man was likely to have only a single child survive, would mitigate against outbreeding Basque women having many descendants. 

Nine years on, these suggestions are no longer controversial, and are becoming widely accepted. For example, a recent article [13] says: 

People of European descent may be 5% Neanderthal, according to a DNA study that questions whether modern humans left Africa and replaced all other existing hominids.

It also mentions: 

The researchers agree with recent studies that conclude Neanderthals did not contribute any mitochondrial DNA, or mtDNA, genetic material that is passed from mothers to children.

An extensive National Geographic article on Neanderthals [14] had some interesting reconstructions of what Neanderthal women are thought have looked like. 



Neanderthal and modern European women.From [14]

As well as these published articles, I have received many messages from people with Basque family origins who have recognized themselves or their relatives in the characteristics suggested in the 2002 article. One lady said that the National Geographicreconstruction "could have been a photograph of her mother". 

One interesting facet of Neanderthals, not picked up in the 2002 article, is that they are believed to have had reddish hair and light skins [15]. So red hair may be another marker of part-Neanderthal ancestry. 



a Neanderthal girl. From [15]

The old concept of Neanderthals being brutish, primitive people has receded in the light of modern studies. Instead, with their powerful, tough physiques and brain size above the modern average, and increasing evidence of cultural and artistic achievement, we may all become quite proud of our Neanderthal inheritance!

this is my thread about my dog Ranger....https://www.nairaland.com/5263366/need-dog-got-dog-name


please listen attentively...

i got a caucasian, i have also spent some money on its feeding .... strictly dryfood, canfood, meat, fish, and when there's no money: rice, fufu

i moved into a compound with 2 other dogs belonging to the landlord (a rottweiler and a gsd: good/pure looking, healthy adult dogs)
so we have 3 dogs in my compound.

my dog didn't bark at anybody - cotenants, security man, etc

at a particular point, i got angry with the dog. i felt i wasted money. i told myself - maybe i should have gotten another breed? another dog?

MY DOG DIDN'T BARK AT ANYBODY. IT PLAYS WITH EVERYBODY - TILL TODAY.

but now i know why

it knows when it should and shouldn't bark

now i know whenever it barks, its barking for a reason.

i'll share just two experiences:

1) someone in my compound had an issue with the police and policemen stormed my compound, broke the gate loudly, shouting loudly in the compound, threatening to arrest everyone. the security man ran and released the rottweiler and the gsd. he was dragging the rottweiler to come out, it refused, it started squeaking (crying), the security man ran to hide and left the rotts cage open, it refused to come out of its cage and kept quiet all through the episode. neighbours even thought the gsd wasnt in the compound.

Guess who almost destroyed my balcony protector to come out - my caucasian. he barked and barked and almost injured himself. the policemen were scared to even come towards my house to look at the dog barking. he's just 7 months old.

2) i had a househelp who used to smuggle phones into my house through the window late at night with my security guard. i'd hear my dog barking at night (11pm) and get angry wondering - why is this dog barking by this time?
when we eventually caught her stealing foodstuffs from my house, i realised why my dog always barks whenever he sees her (even with me)


the dog barks only when things are wrong!!!!!!

i decided to test him. he has never barked at my security guard, so i sent the guard to invite his friend from outside to pass my balcony, guess what? he chased my security man.


the dog doesnt bark because he knows there is no danger. he barks when somehting is amiss, or shouldnt be!


Relax my man. Your dog knows how to be a dog more than you.

N/B: people who know this story are asking when i intend to breed my dog, that they want its offspring. my cotenant, street neighbours etc
ranger has started coming up wink

nice, I remember him

Romance / Re: These Caribbeans Hate Africans by Nobody: 6:12am On Nov 23, 2019
khiaa:


I will address the bolded.

1. What thick girl are you referring to?

2. You people call me toxic and bitter because I tell the truth about white people and you can't handle the truth.

3. America is 243 years old, when was reverse discrimination EVER used against whites when they are the ones who created this racist system against others and don't tell me any bullcrap about the Irish because I can break that down for you, tell the truth and shame the devil, it's obvious that you don't know the truth?

5. I know the history of the U.S. better than you will ever know, with that statement you made lets me know that you don't know a damn think about my history.
.
6. I know where my ancestors are from but what does that have to do with you or Dasani?

7. I almost forgot this one, white people prefer to interact with Africans because they know that Africans worship them and are extremely easy for them to manipulate, they can't do that with black Americans because we know them to well and we don't give a damn about them.

8. You are very busy and occupied but not to busy to come to this topic and drag my name into your conversation, I think not!!!!

9. Stick to your pretend occupation and keep me out of your posts.

Are you not the thick girl in the right places? Did you not post it in response to one of that clown who is a cow? There is nothing wrong to desire a Nigerian man, it is fine. I have no objection towards it. Also, there is nothing wrong in desiring a caucasian too.

If you truly want a Nigerian man, or African....then you should try to understand why Nigerians do not go for black Americans. It has nothing to do with worshipping anyone.

Wait! I will not abuse you. I am going to discuss with you. And you will see the areas you are getting it wrong. I am busy, but not too busy to discuss with someone who I know needs to have a different view about a subject. You need to open your mind now.

Let us forget about irrelevancies like the history of the US. No one can know the history more than the citizens. I agree and disagree with you...lol. But I know that it is a debate a non native can never win. So, I am wise not to continue in that direction. Just let us focus on the main issue.

The main issue is that NL has rearranged your brain cells. I am not abusing you. I also find it hard at times to communicate without getting emotional here. People can really be nasty here. But funny, the same person frustrating your life online on NL can be the best friend in real life. That is the crazy thing about NL and Nigerians. Lol. So, when you stay afar and judge Nigerians with NL, you are not getting the picture right.

Again, you think Nigerians worship white. Hehehehehhe. Trust me...heck no no.no. Just watch out when a "maga's rant" is broadcasted online. a maga is someone who fell into a financial scam. If the maga is white, just read the comments. Even you will be amazed the comments of popular people. But funny, it is not like many of them are in support of the Nigerian man who "hammered" the white dude, but you are going to hear/readstatements like "we are collecting back what your ancestors stole from us". Ms. Khiaa...start thinking.


Further more, contrary to your believe that Nigerian men worship whites because they prefer them to the blacks. Of course who wants "wahala". Wahala means trouble. No one. Even the person who has wahala nature can not stand wahala too. Black American girls are known to be too "investigative". They will never let the African men have peace of mind. They start investigating what is unnecessary in very stupid ways that destroy relationships. No one is saying background checks should not be done, but they do it with damaging methods. Black Americans are known to not give a damn about anything when they start misbehaving. Very rude and disrespectful acts come out of them. And they are too bossy when they think they are right. So, most Nigerian boys play along with them. And dump them later. I know very few good black Americans who married Nigerians. They are not too many with happy homes. But the truth is that there should be more of such marriages. But in most cases, the black American wives are always too "over protective" of the Nigerian men. And they believe in arresting the men everytime after very little arguments. They believe they can argue their way out. They dont know how to close their lips at times. The Nigerian men who are always silent aren't stupid. Of course, intelligent people dont show their next moves. But that American black lady always run her mouth like a 2019 sport Porshe powered V-10 engine. Lol.

Personally, I cannot deal with such person. Divorce is very sure. I need peace to think well. I need peace to do my businesses. I need peace to function. I am a man after knowledge, and silence is a must for me. Meditation is paramount. So, having a woman who is troublesome is a capital NO for me. It is 100% sure that divorce is happening. Let us be realistic. If I made mistake of marrying such person, would you tell me not to still pursue getting greencard if it is desirable to me? Of cos I would be stupid to abandon the process. I would also bear all the insults. So, the black lady starts shouting the man married her for greencard sake. Lol. Who cares about such rant? I know many in such position. And if I found myself in such, I would do such too. Fortunately, God has blessed me too much, and it is difficult to think of leaving Nigeria presently. However, I want to because of the attitude here. Lol. You also should try to put yourself in the position of a Nigerian lady.

But wait! When a man is patient enough to find the right woman by listening to his inner man, and then by studying the lady very well....that's a lovely and peaceful home. It has nothing to do with racism. It has nothing to do with revenge. I am going to admonish you to leave behind the bad things they have done to you. You live above those bad memories by over looking them. You are not helping the situation by fighting like this. They will even mock you. Infact, even Nigerians are mocking you. Yeah. People are going to see you like a sick person. Your goal should be to change what you dont like. Your goal should be to make positive impact in the society. Your voice must be heard and respected. You gat so much to say, but you are doing it wrongly. How should you do it?

The best revenge is to first be very great and influential. Then, launch your attack not against people; but against the act. You are fighting the wrong enemy by attacking whites. The real enemy is not the person, but the system. Fight the system. Make research and know the personalities behind the system. And launch your attacks against them. When you defeat the personalities behind the system, you will have an everlasting vistory. For example, Hitler's system was attacked. It was not a thing of white vs black. Every sane person did not see it as a war against a particular race, but was against a particular system. I have been chased by skin heads and I had to run into white folks who defended me. I ran into them and I pleaded for protection fast. And they defended me. On countless occasions I have been stopped by whites to have pictures with me. The one that is very funny is that children always ask for it, and their parents are always shy to ask. Lol.

At the same time, I have been victimized by a useless white professor. I wanted to take it like he was doing so because I am black but I just did not. I had the worst grade with that man. In fact, he made sure he did not make me graduate with the highest grade because he gave me "F" in one of his courses. He denied me to be on the dean's list. I swallowed my pride and approached another white professor to help me out. And he was like..."how come?". Another white professor got involved in it and the dean of my faculty was also informed. They set up an investigative panel. Here is my point - one white professor made me think it was a battle of racism, but another white professor changed the story. Infact, I did not have one single black lecturer, so I couldn't have approached one. The intent of the panel set up is what changed everything. Of course, the nice professor sat me down that I should not think I am going to get a+ because he knows the man is very smart, and he would bring out many ridiculous reasons. And sure, the guy brought out so many reasons to justify himself. There was nothing like he failed me unjustly. He proved his case very well, but everyone knew that he was wrong. And then, one professor brought out a case which was years before mine where that same professor assisted a white girl. And then, that was how the story changed. Professor looked so stupid. And because he did not want to look like a racist, he bowed and gave me "C". I was happy and I thanked them all. Of course, it was a difficult position paper. Lol. I learned my lesson. I was invited to write another position paper, and I declined it. My dean got to know, and asked me to report to his office. And they started pressing me again. Of course, they needed me to write it because such paper is good in the archive. One written by an African who was one of their best at the time.

I have been locked up by a white policeman. Lol. I came down from my apartment and he stopped me right in front of my entrance. And asked for identification. And I pointed to my house, and he said nope that I should not go in to bring it. And started saying if I dont follow him, he will brutalize me. I saw him trying to handcuff me, and I pulled up my hands immediately that I am not resisting and I am ready to follow him. He said good and pushed me inside the back of his car. And locked me up. They started questioning me after many hours in the cell without food. When they realised that I was not the one they were looking for, they left me in peace. And funny, the same police man who handcuffed me operated in the area for many months. And everytime he saw me again, he would wave at me. And one time, he asked me to have lunch with his family. And his wife started apologizing after she knew the circumstances I met her husband.

Another time, I was slapped by a white police officer. The mistake he made was to tear off my shirt, and punched me. I said absolutely nothing. It could get worse if I had retaliated, but I held my peace. I knew the game. I allowed him think he has defeated me. And I started mine. I make sure I got a good lawyer fast. Same day I went with all the evidences....as in I wore the torn clothes to the district office and I made them take DNA evidences. Then, they asked for alcohol breath test cos the guy claimed I was under narcotics influence. After the tests, the foolish boy started begging me. Under normal circumstance, this is a boy I would destroy with my fist, but I respected the uniform on him. The case went to court and sure, he was purnished. What if I had retaliated? That would have turned the case around.

Well, there might be cases of real injustice, no doubt about it...there is injustice around. But I can tell you that 90% cases where violence was recorded was as a result of immediate retaliation from the victim.

Khiaa, I think you should not retaliate. What you need to do is to carry out vengeance in a smart way. No one wants to listen to a bittered woman because this is how you have been sounding. Rather, I want you to reposition yourself and change the story. Start educating Nigerians here about the dangers ahead. Stop telling people they are worshiping whites. Of course, no one will ever listen to you. You may be right that some set of people worship another kind of people, but a good communicator will not still say it.

I believe you want to influence people positively here....so start all over again. Nasty people will come with nasty comments, kindly ignore them.

Nairalanders are na.sty online. Do not let that get into you. I am not going to reply that big cow because it is wise to just ignore people like that. No matter how you think this is faceless forum, people are still watching. And you dont know who the angel God has sent to you is. Do not portray yourself as a bittered person anymore.

There is one American lady like you who has been on my butt for many months. Of course, I am not going to push her away cos I know she is desperate to learn about Nigeria. She is so annoying and I know the number of people who had told her she is crazy. I have chased her away too. Called her olosho, evening newspaper ..etc... but babe remained oooooo. I guess she knew I did not mean it. Lol. She knew I wanted to chase her away....and she didn't allow the nas ty words get to her. And funny....she is always calling me a scammer too. Lol. Of course, why would an American continue talking to a scammer? She knew I could take it too. She was just trying to get back to me. Lol. My point is that it seems she is getting to understand Nigerians more. Lol. You need a thick skin to deal with a Nigerian man; else, you are going to think the man wants to use and dump you.

God knows I do not know you from the days of Adam and Eve. I hope you take my corrections well so you can be a voice to reckon with.

Best of luck!
