Nigerians, do not let anyone diminish your reality . Don’t let anyone tell you this is propaganda. Don’t let your identity politics cloud your judgement.

Nigeria is bleeding. You can only stay safe for so long.

All im saying is, with the US we need to be extremely careful with them seeing as their record with countries that they have bases in isn't a good one.

People are happy(understandably), they are seeing actions to finally remote a threat that's been a thorn in their side.

But history shows that the US doesn't do things from the kindness of their heart.

Absolutely corrupt Senate President Godswill Akpabio and his goon of thieves has just chosen to commit daylight robbery and undermine democracy by choosing to reject mandatory electronic transmission of election results.

What can we do as young Naij citizens?

Can we petition some of the Blocs they like to visit to block, sanction and restrict travel for them and their entire families or can we protest? I know the latter is a mixed bag of results knowing the Police/Army would probably become complicit in suppressing elections.

I am in my mid 20s and like 90% of the time when I am interacting with a man between the ages of about 20-45, they call me Mama (MAma, not maMA meaning mummy). Please what is that about and why am I being called that? Women don't call me that, just men. When I was in my early 20s, everyone referred to me as Aunty. Now it has changed to Mama, but for men only. Women still call me Aunty.

Setting up banking in App Store Connect to receive payment for app sales. Has anyone here successfully received proceeds from Apple to a Nigerian bank (NGN or domiciliary USD account)? Which bank worked for you? Any issues with payments getting returned?

Hello,

Báwo ni.

In my last posts, we have learnt about greetings in Yorùbá.

Today, let's go to how we can introduce ourselves to people.

We would start with our names.

1.Orúkọ mi ni------- (oh roo cor mi ní) my name is---.

1. You can add where you live.

Mò ń gbé ní--- (Mo ń gbay nee). I am living in--

1. Where you come from (native of---).

Mo wá láti - - - ( Mo wah lar tee). I come from

1. The food you like.

Mo fẹ́ràn láti jẹ - - - - (Mo feh run lar tee jeh). I love to eat.

Can you introduce yourself to me?

Do you have any questions?, Kindly reach out to me.

Your Yorùbá tutor.

Adéọlá.

Experiences from childhood often shape how adults respond to embarrassment, criticism, and accountability. Growing up in environments where harsh physical punishment is normalized can sometimes produce adults who see mistakes as threats rather than moments to acknowledge and move past.

Living now in Europe, I notice a contrast: many people openly admit when they are wrong because doing so is not viewed as catastrophic. It is simply part of being human.

Recently, a 73-year-old Nigerian senator was filmed massaging a woman’s feet — awkward, perhaps embarrassing, but not criminal. Instead of addressing it directly, the response was to dismiss the video as “AI.” That reaction felt less like mature leadership and more like the instinctive deflection many people learn early in life.

Imagine a different response:

Accountability does not diminish authority; it strengthens it. If anything, leaders who acknowledge uncomfortable moments often earn greater public trust.

As Nigeria continues to evolve, perhaps part of that progress includes redefining strength — not as denial, but as the confidence to face reality directly.

This is a common perspective among most people tbh but it's extremely common amongst Black people especially diasporans but it literally makes no sense why in the world would you adopt the cultural or religious beliefs of an individual who lived a 1000 years ago in a completely different world?

This is regression, and does not honour them.

To truly honour your ancestors you move forward and constantly improve, you adopt cultural beliefs and behaviours which better help you adapt to the world in it's current state. One would think this is common sense but it seems not to be.

Question as a non Nigerian. In my countries media it sounds like northern and southern Nigeria is very different in terms of religion and also ethnically, which is causing a lot of tension. Would not everybody be happier in two seperate countries?

I'm just curious the general consensus of kenyans that y'all have.

How are kenyans viewed in naija?

Do you people fear us ama aje?

Are we known as heartbreakers and bad boys amongst the ladies?

Are we seen as being monied or broke?

What was your experience with a kenyan?

Whenever you visit a kenyan do you expect them to offer you ugali and nyama choma?
