Understanding your ancestors.

Interesting must read. I had to share. Understanding the Egungun (Revered Ancestors). 1.  Where do the Egungun live? The Yoruba do not have a "heaven" that the dead roam around in and chat to each other as in the Christian myth.  Such a place is completely superstitious. The Yoruba word "orun" does not equate to heaven but just means the spiritual realm.  It is not a "place" but a part of the dual aspect of the one world which is a union of the physical and spiritual. In IFA:when a person dies, they don't go to a "heaven" but their spirit lives on thru you.  They literally live in your blood.  A part of their spirit eventually finds another genetic relative to reincarnate thru via the blood/DNA.  This is the SCIENTIFIC understanding of the egungun as the spiritual aspect of your physical DNA. 2.  How do the Egungun help us? For those of you Christianized thinkers waiting on a spook savior, you should know that the Egungun do not m...

Address's by the minister of power, babatunde raji fashola

ADDRESS DELIVERED BY HONOURABLE MINISTER OF POWER, WORKS AND HOUSING, BABATUNDE RAJI FASHOLA, SAN AT THE 5TH NATIONAL COUNCIL ON LANDS, HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT, HELD IN ILORIN, KWARA STATE, ON THURSDAY AUGUST 25, 2016 Ladies and Gentlemen: I would start this address by expressing the gratitude of the Federal Government to the government and people of Kwara State for accepting to host this annual council of Lands, Housing and Urban Development. His Excellency, Mr. Abdulfatah Ahmed and members of his government especially the Commissioner for Housing and Urban Development, Hon. Muideen Alalade have been wonderful hosts by all accounts against the odds. Indeed, it is against the odds. This is because there was every excuse to avoid some of the expenses, no matter how little, that hosting this event have demanded. This is because of the competing demands for increasingly hard to earn income amidst the various needs that state and local governments have to fund. B...

Don't spoil APC chance.

Ondo: Delegates camping damaging, don’t spoil APC chances – Ariyomo warns other aspirants By Wale Odunsi An All Progressives Congress, APC, governorship aspirant in Ondo State, Engr. Tunji Light Ariyomo, has appealed to the party not to involve in any form of ‘delegates camping’ ahead of the September 3 primary. He spoke to DAILY POST in reaction to an alarm raised by another aspirant of the party, Dr Olusegun Abraham. Abraham, while featuring on a live radio station programme in Akure, alleged that some aspirants scheming to win APC ticket had camped the delegates in an area. Abraham said: “These delegates who never knew the intention of the desperate aspirants, went for the meeting, only to be confined and never allowed to go home.” But sounding a note of warning, Ariyomo told our correspondent that: “Delegate camping is a vestige of the locust days of the PDP where money and only money decided preferences. “There must be a departure from that experience. Dele...

President buhari has nailed it again

THE PRESIDENT KILLED AND NAILED IT! "And with advertised impunity, those given trusts betrayed them, those given public offices abused them; and majority of those given guardianship over any matter of significance compromised their positions. It has become so bad that it is looking as if there are hardly any honest people left. At the same time, the culture of hypocrisy has also been perfected. "Everybody, including those perpetrating fraud, complain, as if the fraudulent practices that exist are committed by extra-terrestrials from outer space. Yet this society, that is complaining is the one that should be squarely blamed. No other society to my knowledge tolerates such outrage, while our own positively encourages it. "Nowhere else in the world can one find a society tolerating the theft of its precious resources in broad daylight with nothing happening to the thieves. A day in office, as far as the general public is concerned, often means eight hours of converting...

Only qualified teacher will be permitted to practice.

ONLY QUALIFIED, REGISTERED TEACHERS WILL BE ALLOWED TO PRACTICE —MINISTER AUGUST 29, 2016 / : MINISTER of Education, Malam Adamu Adamu, has said only qualified teachers, who are duly registered, would be allowed to teach in the country to ensure professionalism. Adamu said this while briefing newsman on the sidelines on the presentation of a draft roadmap, tagged “Education for Change: A Ministerial Strategic Plan 2016-2019’’ to education stakeholders, in Abuja, on Monday. He said the teaching profession had declined and there was the need to ensure professionalism to improve the quality of education. “Teacher education itself is dying simply because non-professionals have now become teachers. “Therefore, the professionalisation and registration of teachers will help make sure that the profession is reorganised with quacks kicked out. “So, nobody should be employed as a teacher if he or she does not have a teaching qualification; there is no magic if you are n...

Must do after Nysc

7 things Every NYSC Corper should do after POP. I understand the excitement that goes with passing out of service. In fact, you are so excited, you want the whole world to know. A lot of people show this by sharing their POP pictures and NYSC Certificates on social media like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, BBM etc. You won't have to go for the CDS again, no more khaki trousers, no more of those heavy orange boots, and for some, no more issues with your LI and so on and so forth. You just can't wait to pick your NYSC Certificate and run!. The Big question is, run to where? The truth is, it's tougher out there in the Nigerian Labour Market. Ask your seniors. As a Corper, at least you had a monthly income. But after POP, if not retained at your work place, many of you will go incomeless (if there's a word like that) and hop into the world of job search. The bad news is: Nobody really cares about you. It's cold and rough out there and that's not funny. The good...

The avengers

Niger Delta Avengers Writes Open Letter to President Buhari Nigerian militant group, the Niger Delta Avengers, NDA, has written an open letter to President Muhammadu Buhari, declaring a ceasefire. The group also warned Buhari against authorizing operation CROCODILE SMILE in the area by the army. We call on President Muhammadu Buhari to put away the garb of a stooge to the imperialists, whenever he speaks outside Nigeria. We have listened carefully and halted hostilities in the Niger Delta; we expect a genuine and positive attitude to restructuring and self-determination for every component unit of Nigeria. Dear president, what makes those countries (Japan, Germany, France, USA, Britain etc.) great is the ability of their governments to accommodate internal protestations and conflicts for the greater good of their nations over the years. Please stop presenting your government as pawn to the web of military industrialists complex, whenever you leave the shores of Nige...

Letter to President buhari

Open Letter To President Buhari By Cardinal Anthony Okogie Dear Mr. President, Last year, when you assumed office, the chant of “Change,” your campaign slogan, ushered you into the Presidential Villa. Today, cries of “hunger” could be heard across the length and breadth of our vast country. Nigerians hunger, not only for food, but also for good leadership, for peace, security, and justice. This letter is to appeal to you to do something fast, and, if you are already doing something, to redouble your effort. May it not be written on the pages of history that Nigerians die of starvation under your watch. As President, you are the chief servant of the nation. I, therefore, urge you to live up to the huge expectation of millions of Nigerians. A stitch in time saves nine. This is the second year of your administration. You and your party promised to lead the masses to the Promised Land. It is not an easy task to lead. But by campaigning for this office, you offered to...

Cocaine killed Stella son not tooth paste.

Chidozie Nduka Okafor Emmanuel wrote Stella Oduah’s First Son Maxwell Chinedu Etoromi Dies Of Cocaine Drug Overdose In Abuja – Insider Exposes Late Aviation Minister HOW COCAINE DRUG ADDICTION KILLED STELLA ODUAH'S SON IN ABUJA. Former aviation minister, Stella Oduah is currently mourning the death of her first child, Etoromi Chinedu who passed away at the age of 28 at a private hospital in Abuja yesterday. Though it was initially reported that Chinedu died of fake drug overdose, an insider however said it was a cover up for the young man who reportedly lived a reckless life in his lifetime. The source said Chinedu’s battle with Cocaine started when he was 22 and that his mother didn’t realise until he turned 26, a problem she hid from the preying eyes of the public till she lost him. Chinedu popularly called Max by friends returned to Abuja last year after graduating from a college in the United Kingdom from where he continued making friends with “bad guys”. At ...

Black magic

There is no such thing like black or white magic,it was a diminutive attempt by racist to classify magic and a eurocentric point of view. Black in all sense is purity... And magic in all sense is natural Same craft different approach. Magic is energy. Energy has no intentions or direction of its own, so it cannot be black (meaning evil)" or white (meaning good). Much like electricity is energy. Electricity is used by people for many good, helpful purposes - heating & lighting your home, cooking your food, and powering your computer where you can access all kinds of information on the internet. But if electricity is mishandled or misused, it can cause serious damage to property, harm to a person or even death. But when someone gets electrocuted, nobody says, "that was black electricity". Energy cannot decide for itself how it is used by people. So color coding the energy or labeling it good or evil is a misnomer. Credited to: OGUNTIMEHIN IBITAYO. O

Yoruba not Islamic or mecca in origin.

(Backings from Ifa university) I have heard several time by individuals making assertion that oduduwa oriental origin is mecca not ile-ife. Yoruba are not immigrant, Nigeria is their native land . If Oduduwa came from Mecca, in what language was he communicating with the people he met in Ile Ife? What language were the peoples whose leaders were Obatala , Ogun , Laroye , and etc speaks? If Odu is the sacred text.. The point where life descended to Earth was Ile Ife and that was never Mecca. Orunmila went East and taught them Ifa not the other way around. Its sad to me when people want to connect Yoruba to East. Research your own archeology and you will find artifacts that existed before the Eastern civilization..Even if we accept (hypothetically) the scientific assumptions that date earliest traces of Yoruba presence between 500 and 700 BC, based on lack of written evidence, not indicating that the city was empty before that, the story that Yoruba came from Mecca I after odudu...
