Mastermind...'Rythm Nation' was baaaad!!!
That should be in my top ten list.

Ummmmm, is this not 2004? When did the last slave ship leave the ports of Badagry or Fernando Po? 100, 200 or 300 years ago? Slavery is ancient history. If we keep living in the past and blaming Party A or Party B then there shall be no progress. The challenges of building a brighter future for Nig...

I have to agree with Anikulapo. I mean we can apologise all we want, but do we think our apologies will markedly change the nature of relationships between Africans and Afro-Americans? I don't think so. Any African American that resents any African unfortunately has to look within himself for the b...

oGA Damunk...you are talking as if Africans played such an important role in promoting Slavery...with or without the African role in slavery it would have still happened, whether by force or by trade...and as Gooner said the Africans who u assign responsiblity to are the minority... And by the way ...

This thread is very interesting indeed. It is also funny that today everyone is blaming the slave trade on a minority of greedy Africans. Perhaps in 20 years time, history will be rewritten exonerating the Europeans of any involvement in the genocide. Then people like ohsee will have a field day. &...

One of the unfortunate lagacies of slavery is the self doubt it breeds in people. Even today, most of the images we are bombarded with is negative for black people and positive for whites. The only images they see of Africa is of poverty, famine, and corruption. Africa has not done anything to make...

Interesting, cos you don't necessarily have to like the song, tho it helps.. Those that come to mind, not in any particular order: 1. 'Beat It' (Michael Jackson) 2. 'Remember The Time' (Michael Jackson) 3. 'November Rain' (Guns & Roses) 4. 'Take On Me' (A-Ha) 5. 'Police-y-eh!!! (Bright Chimezie)...

This whole cop out that the weak or thieves where sold is a signification of a society in denial, why did the white man not sell his weak and thieves to African to be so abused ? ..... ....I am not advocating we bend over backwards to please anybody, but we ought to lay bare the truth and let it se...

So where does Eminem stand in all this lyricism?
Or is it cos he's white?

I'd still go for Biggie, personally.

The lady has acted irresponsibly! There is nothing new with what has allegedly taken place but she has put her government in a difficult position (her intent)! Double negative... If you 'act irresponsibly' towards an 'irresponsible' government, then you have done the right thing. IMHO. So it now de...

Most religious, yet most corrupt. Weytin dey happen? Damunk, for where you see "thou shalt not chop awoof" for ten commandments? :D :D Easy. Me I believe say: "Thou shalt not steal= thou shalt not take what is not yours=thou shalt enquire about the owner of this thing wey you see for...

I am yet to see it. Everything was sold out yesterday. I'll be glad to after I watch it. But I think it is unfair to expect everything from one person as if Mel is supposed to be perfect. I'm not even going into the theatre as a critic. I am going to be reminded visually of what Christ endured for ...

I think this is very out of order for former minister of state to breach the Official secrets act. :evil: Very disgusting. Wetin dey do this Claire Short selef Hen ? Weytin dey do am? The woman has a conscience thats all, Secrecy Acts or not. Knowing what she knew then, she resigned (eventually) fr...

Most religious, yet most corrupt.
Weytin dey happen?

I thought we deleted this same topic when some angel* asked the same question of Naija women.
This thread does not contribute to this board in any way and should go the same way as the first.
In the recycle bin!

I didn't follow the fist debate on this topic, as it was well advanced before I could get involved. However, related to this issue is a recent world-wide study to be aired in a BBC documentary about religion sometime this week (I don't have the details). Apparently, Nigeria has the highest percentag...

Rudeboy, Thanks for pointing out the obvious when closet tribalists like DAMUNK would rather ignore them. :roll: :roll: Is this supposed to be a provocative argument? It's both pathetic and laughable. :lol: :D :lol: Which fool would rise to such a bait as this? Ik15, try harder, tho I doubt you'll ...

Two albums I would not recommend are kelis and joe. Waste of money in my opinion. I got carried away by 'Milkshake' and just went for the album without thinking. Joe's album is so weak IMHO compare to his last (or was it last-but-one?) -'My Name Is Joe' I think the album was called ...(as I discover...

The signal sent out by paying the FINANCE minister in dollars is wrong. It is within here remit to set monetary and fiscal policies that ditrectly affect the value of the Naira. What next pay the Central Bank governor in dollars, or are they already doing that ? Good point AD, but how do we attract...

One kobo is one kobo too much.
And never you underestimate the degree of megalomania existing in Nigeria.
There are some people in that country that would even eat money with ogbonna soup if they could.

4 billion or 40billion...nothing will surprise me.
