Tank you, takwasinkyou, my good Shief. Jus give me two rounds with dat yeye woman, and she will be begging every Naija guy she sees. Once you go ohsee, you never go back.

Omotori said: But he may be some White guy who adopted a Nigerian son or daughter or married a Nigerian wife who tells him all these stories that he distorts for us. I think you may just be correct there. He may just be a whitey married to some Naija bird. Yes, I admit, I am a white guy, as baproph...

Your inability to concede that the accuracacy of the interpretation of Baba Karo's accounts (by an American in 1902) can be questioned proves the point exactly - which is that your insistence on intellectual rigor only goes one way - i.e in favor of the White percpective. And as a matter of fact, i...

Ohsee, its really funny how on the other hand when Black scholars tell of epic achievements by Africans, you are the first to demand intellectual rigor & verifiability. your double standard is incredible to behold. When White scholars write, I demand the same. I do not demand intellectual rigou...

Ohsee, listen up. I can go and pull out any book about WW2 DESCRIBING THE TERRIBLE HELL FACED BY MILLIONS OF EUROPEANS at that period (60 million dead) for nearly 7 years straight. But I sure can't find any book saying Africans should have come and seized those countries and enslaved their people a...

Whitey came and stole our money, and retains our stolen billions, stolen by their stooges. So we're here to get it back. And whilst we're doing that, WE CAN TALK, ANALYSE, DISSECT, AND DISAPPROVE OF WHITEY'S THIEVING TO OUR SATISFACTION, and there's not a dammn thing you can do about it. So Deal wi...

omotori, I am responding to Kneedeep's post. By the way, if most of your productive industries are owned by foreigners, do you not think they will have some influence? Anyway, I know what you guys are saying. China has not completely opened nyash for the West. Africa has. But the fact is that China ...

also, it seems that the Chinese leadership rejected the influence & interference of the West in order to pursue its own home-grown approach. Spot on. As for rejecting Western influence, only the naive African believes that another man will come and prepare him to compete against the teacher. So...

Tunji, I empathize with you. But like Fegwu said, it's hard to think rationally when anger and bitterness are beclouding your reasoning and thought process. Usually when things like this happens, it is symptomatic of a bigger root cause. Hence the best way to go is to try and dialogue with your wif...

its interesting to note that the accounts of many if not most Western scholars & anthropologists who came to Africa in the pre-colonial days are massively riddled with distortions, fabrications & lies. The fact is that this book was actually written by an American Anthropologist who CLAIMS ...

sufferhead, thanks for posting such a fascinating piece of oral history. This is truly wonderful stuff, and I don't understand what its critics are complaining about. If the writer is really Prince Eweka (and there is no reason to suspect that he is not) what we have here is the raw material of his...

Ah, I forgot this thread. cic, who spouts Marxism without showing the wisdom of Marx, spends a lot of time condemning the West. But cic is himself a COMPLETE product of the West, as is ROSSIKE and every one of us posting on this cyberworld. WE ARE ALL WESTERNERS GUYS! Face it and stop talking nonsen...

I thought cic posted this stuff about the CIA before, and some devastating critiques revealed that some of its claims are bogus. Not that the CIA is not, and was not involved in nefarious activity in Africa, but exaggeration and patently false information harms the cause of people pointing this out....

'S gasto be NYC! Lived in England, been to NYC... you can actually have a full village meeting in NYC... yep! not your state, I mean your Villa... your kparakpo meetings... ...a place where people speaking without an accent are in the minority... Ol boy, this shows how much you sabi about London. V...

Kai! Otuoma, what have you done to yourself? I have not seen 1Naija or Airwolex since I read the article. I am praying for both men. You never know what friends can do with the invent of the Internet. These kind of things never used to happen in the past. Otuoma, don't worry about Airwolex; he's ar...

Toronto is the second most diverse city. It is hard to find an English speaker on the subway here. hmmmm. Iro nla.Mo shi fila fun alaye oloje. Ekorian, no yab before I cyberslap you 24 times to run concurrently. I no dey ride subway again, but even when I did about 15 years ago, it was amazing how ...

Guys, remember BET. I remember it being sold to me as a channel that would counter all the negative stereotypes of Blacks. What did it do? It promoted stereotypes with all those nyash-shaking bebes (no be say I no like dem o, but sometime I go pretend make Iyawo no vex) and crude black jokes. The un...

No, no, no, you guys got it all wrong, that's Prince. Otuoma is a pretty, sexy Kenyan chick.

Chief, why you dey bother with 14 year old nutcase like Talk IT? Everyone else knows you are doing a good job, so just ignore him.

okjazz, what about Rigo Starr? I think Franco is solid, though it is hard to say whether it is him or one of his guitarists playing. Franco on some early songs like "Aya la mode" is simply wicked. Ohsee did you know that the best guitarist that TP OK Jazz had in the 60s was some guy by th...
