@FamakinSeun @seyilaw1 You remember aunty ronke's daddy? We used to call him baba mi. Na him bring d thing come molasuru then. He fought in that war. My grandma nearly died 4 that war b4 we brought her to ondo. U suppose remember wen she was staying with us then sha.

@nevilbot @seyilaw1 Bro you for go collect am behind your mama then

My experience plenty and some of them were during the Ijaw and Ilaje war in 1998. One of my cousins did a juju they called Acid na water. Once he holds any container with acid and he says Acid na water, the acid will turn into water and he will drink etc. We use am chop money for Ebute Metta that year. Some people for Ondo Street and Abeokuta Street go remember. We dey call that my cousin Samo. Anybody wey grow for Igbokoda go remember another of my cousin wey dem dey call WAZO. He is late now, but den baba get jazz. The story long.

@lerry_OO @Montero1016 @TYFLagos So dey didnt bcom kings via a maternal line bt bcame kings cus dey were sons of an ooni & came to d town wit beaded crowns after dey were sent off frm ife 4 being twins. That's y many towns in ondo state uses female regents as a placeholder till date bt nt inheritance of d thrown

@lerry_OO @Montero1016 @TYFLagos Nope it was not. U read to comment nt 2 understand. D town was already in existence b4 d crown came frm ife cotc of a wife of an ooni who had twin sons. Both sons ended up bcoming kings of 2 towns close 2 each oda. Bt b4 they were old enuf 2 rule, dia mum ruled as a reagent.

Needed to quote this for visibility. Hamzat is from Lagos and his dad even held posts in Lagos. Oba Hamzat became King via his maternal line. Oba himself was head of AC structure in a part of Lagos state. I think hes now late. Enough of this rhetoric. Omo Eko ni!!! @TYFLagos

@PitBull40855745 @Montero1016 @TYFLagos It is nt a crime but a strong tradition in many yoruba towns. Many of d examples being citied nw are in lagos/ogun which i see as exceptions & nt d norm. I av been personally affected by this male lineage rule so I am also speaking frm experience. Mayb I ws wrong in generalising

@nevilbot @Montero1016 @TYFLagos Is it a crime to become a king through the mother side? My King here in Lagos got to the throne through the mother side.

@lerry_OO @Montero1016 @TYFLagos Dis ex u citied started dia own towns & became kings over them nt lyk dey bcame king of an already existing town thru dia mum. Even d ist king of my town ws a woman who held d kingship in trust 4 her small child who came wit a crown as a son of a king. So i dnt think these counts

@nevilbot @Montero1016 @TYFLagos This isn't true as Key figures like Oduduwa's grandchildren, such as the Alaketu of Ketu, OluPopo, and OluSabe, relied on their mother's lineage—specifically the daughters of Okanbi—to claim their crowns.  Did they bribe their ways back then?

@orukusuku @Montero1016 @TYFLagos Ok maybe I was wrong in my generalising bt in yorubaland dis is a recent exception & nt d norm bcus mst of d examples citied are n lag/ogun state. as some1 whose path 2 a throne has been affected thru this rule, I also personally know y i made my initial comment.

The reigning Oniru, Oba Abdulwasiu Lawal, Abisogun II became a King from not only his mother's lineage but from a different 'kingdom' from his father's. His father was an Ojora. Oba Tejuoso, Osile of Oke Ona in Egbaland, became a King through his mother's lineage. Some towns traditions accepted it so you should not generalised that people who became Kings through their maternal lineage bribed their ways through.

@FamakinSeun Germany did not newly announce any new scholarships. There av always been yearly scholarships available for people from all over d world to study in germany & 1 of them is d daad scholarship. D tweet is just a click bait 2 direct pple 2 his page like d scholarship is sumtin new

@nevilbot how true

@FamakinSeun Don't believe everything you read on social media

@nordmotion @nordmotion is about to lose the right to assemble and rebrand this car as a9 in Nigeria because kaiyi autos who owns this design as kaiyi x7 is about to enter the nigerian market as kaiyi Nigeria with licence & registered trademark approval already gotten.

When the atmosphere is calm, greatness stands out. #nordA9 #nordmotion #drivenord

@BlackOwl_47 @jannygel @tessylimmy That was bcus 50 naira was the highest denomination naija had then. It was obj who released 100 naira in 1999 and the other notes later. So who will give us big man note as at then? Seeing the note then sef was a privilege cus 20 naira covered many of a family daily expenses

@nevilbot @jannygel @tessylimmy Me I can't even remember holding ₦50 note in secondary school. 5, 10 and sometimes 20 Naira with coins was the currency they give you as school boy then.

I was the first person to sell this bread at NNPC Abeokuta, I will start at the entrance of the petrol station and be shouting “buy bread”🤣🤣. The price of the bread then was 95 naira, bakery sold it to us at 75 naira My parents were part of the major distributor in abeokuta when the bread was launched in 2008. I used to hawk this bread around all the ministries in Abeokuta, Oke ilewo, Federal Secretariat, CBN, Oke mosan etc Thank you Jesus for how far you have brought me🙏

@jannygel @BlackOwl_47 @tessylimmy 50 naira ke. Or u meant 5 naira cus 50 naira was whole family budget for a pot of soap o and some extra food stuff. I didnt start taking 10 naira to school until I was in ss1 when obj came in 99 & increased minimum wage o.

@nevilbot @BlackOwl_47 @tessylimmy Chai, I miss those times ooo, with 50 naira u are ok

@osazenoo Iced pokipoki.

Were you there?

@BlackOwl_47 @jannygel @tessylimmy 2 moi moi for 4 naira and 1 eko for 1 naira and lunch was set or rice 3 naira meat 2 naira. Good old days. U brought back memories biko

@jannygel @tessylimmy Lol that means if I told him I used to take ₦5 to secondary school as launch money in the 90s, he won't believe.

@tessylimmy @jannygel It was 100 naira in jakande estate isolo.

@jannygel There is no way this bread sold for 95 naira in 2008.

@mikeachimugu01 Yes my pry school then had a row of trees close to the gate where debtors are kept as against sending us back home. We stayed there all day till closing b4 being allowed to go home or until we get picked up

@nevilbot This is hilarious. Under the tree😀😀

Thinking back now, I can understand why a lot of people lie as adults. It was the foundation. In primary school, my mates would converge during break time and talk about the wealth of their families. Two stood out for me that made me feel poor back then. Echeogor said that his father had a jet parked in their garage. Aloysius said that his dad's money filled the stadium, and that was why football matches were not being played there; to protect his dad's money. I would to bed every night wondering why my dad did not have such money. If you can 'blow' that kind of lie as a minor, there is no limit to what you can 'achieve' as an adult😀😀. #nostalgia
