Good development from BOBtv meanwhile that Lancelot's movie ADESUWA seems interesting to watch.(judging from d good pic quality, n brief description/clipse of d movie) though i hate epic movies with their native doctor setting, witchcraft n all; this ADESUWA seems captivating. if lancelot succeed in wasting my time watching n d movie no try, i will burn all his red n yellow suits.

ReplyDeleteU THIS ANNOYING LINDA, U BETTER POST MY COMMENT.
Why should you reduce yourself to this level of mediocrity. The man only stated an opinion. What stops you from replying intelligently. Or perhaps you lack that ability? Then perhaps you need to go back to some kind of fundamental training that growing up with the kind of background you had denied you. It's people like you in Rwanda back in the days that spearheaded the sad genocide witnessed in that land. It's a pity what intolerance can bring and you are working hard at defining it. Pity.
Delete@anon 3:56 what has tribe got to do with Duke's statement? He just gave his opinion which i also agree to,Onyeka Onwenu & Pat Ozokwor are better actresses than Joke will ever be (btw I'm not ibo) or is it her nonsense grammer and over stressing of words that makes u feel she is a good actress? Stop bringing tribalism into every danm ish abeg and people like u do not fail 2 call oyibo racist.mtscheew oshi!! -Palo
DeleteCan Ibo people leave Lagos, Ibadan, kwara state, Kano, Kaduna, amd every other part of the West and North. God back to Akwa, u lot are full of hatred, yet u flood our towns, I grew up with alot of omo ibo around me, how many Hausa's are in Imo or anambra, or Yoruba people. You have learnt enough about the Yoruba culture, you seem to know us too much, its time to go and learn about how ur people kill their mother and wives for money. Too bad Linda wont put that here, she is one of u. U don hear, go back to ya village!!!
ReplyDeleteObviously @ 'Go home', your development as a human has been stunted. This is clear from the way your brain works. It indicates the Hutu tendency of your heart and the igbophobia that stalks your destiny. Your utterances expressly defines the limitation of your life that you'll never amount to nothing because thinking was never configured in your genetic make-up. I suggest you consult your dead and unambitious babalawos a trend common to your cowardly race to add more demons of fear and limitation to what is clearly a hopeless life. Amusu like you, pathetic fellow like you.
DeleteLmao u
Delete@go home,if ibo people go back home,hunger go kill una die for Lagos and those other cities u mentioned.a neighbour went to d market the dat Ojukwu was laid 2 rest not knowing the ibos had announced that there will be no market dat day to honour their hero,she said she didn't get nuffin to buy,cos "yoruba people only sold groundnut" neither of us are ibo lol-Palo

ReplyDelete@ Anonymous Mar 7, 2012 07:33 PM, you are obviously as bad as the rest of your kin. When will the hatred end? Ibos done nobody no wrong just being themselves. The igbophobia held by your likes will definitely bring y'all to a certain miserable end. Talking about credit card fraud you know and pls do not pretend other wise that yorubas in London re-wrote the book on credit card scams. Yes Ibos can be loud at times but then, they usually have excellence embossed in their DNA so that, be it a good or bad enterprise, he usually is outstandingly excellent. This has been the object of the hatred he's experienced from other Nigerians particularly from the two timing manipulating and self seeking greedy yoruba cat struck individual.
DeleteAh! na wa for this tribalism, i wish you all the best, because no one knows where he/she will be the next minute cos death is not tribalistic. to a beauty Joke Silver Jacobs and all the other women and mothers mentioned, you all deserve the very best. Onyeka Onwenu remains my Diva
