The Obi of Onitsha is the Most Barbaric and Senseless person the world have ever seen.
What a daft King he is

Who will say a thing and it will come to pass if God has not said so. Curse, curse less

malele: The flag off of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Governorship candidate in Anambra State, Dr Chris Nwabueze Ngige Tuesday kicked off without the national leader of the party, Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu even as the traditional institution in Onitsha condemned the flag off on the day Onitsha was holding its Ofala festival.

Although only three governors, including Rochas Okorocha of Imo State, Fayemi of Ekiti State and Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State where among other party chieftains who attended the rally, which was disrupted by a heavy down pour till after 3 pm.
Adding to that, youths in Onitsha protested against Ngige for holding their flag-off campaign on the day, Dr. Alfred Achebe, the Igwe of Onitsha was having his Ofala festival.

The Obi of Onitsha speaking at his palace, placed curse on Ngige and APC , saying his Ofala announcement was made over a year ago and wondered why APC should disrupt its sanctity.

While rounding up his Ofala festival Tuesday, the angry Obi said it was very disrespectful for a political party, in spite of the almost one year notice, to fix their rally the same day.

He angrily struck his ofor thrice on the ground and spoke in Igbo "onye mejoo ani, ochuba ya (he who goes contrary to tradition will have himself hunted).

Earlier he debunked the rumour in some quarters that he resigned as the Chairman of the Traditional Rulers Council on account of differences with Governor Obi, insisting that having been in the position for over five years that it was time for others to serve too.

He said he enjoyed good and harmonious relationship with Obi, who accorded him due respect punctuated by reciprocity. He said he was behind him in the support for Anambra North to produce the next governor in the spirit of equity and fairness.

Senator Ngige was also not spared too by Governor Obi, who condemned APC rally, expressing surprise that a true Igbo son, Dr. Chris Ngige is supposed to be, would allow his party to fix rally at Onitsha the same day the Obi of Onitsha is performing Ofala festival.

Calling on the people of the state to respect traditional institutions, he wondered if any politician, including Ngige would try such in an APC-controlled state.

Obi, who recalled that APGA shifted their rally from Tuesday, the 8th to Monday, the 7th, said a dog bears the name given it by its owner and that it behoves Igbos to stand up firmly and insist that their traditional institutions must be accorded full respect at all times.

Meanwhile, Onitsha Youths carried placards with anti APC and Ngige inscriptions, some which read: "from deportation to desecration of Igbo land!”

However, while speaking at the campaign rally, Ngige assured Anambrarians that the light will shine again. He restated that Anambra will witness a tremendous improvement within space of time in the state if returned as the state governor adding: “We are in the journey together and we shall sing and rejoice together by March 16 when the batten will shift from Obi to Ngige.

GOD MUST KILL YOU FOR POSTING COOKED LIES ON NAIRALAND.I WAS THERE AND IF SAW TINUBU WITH MY EYES..PLZ CHECK ONLINE NEWSPAPERS FOR PROOFS.

Idi Amin: And who is Obi of onitsha? Does he have two heads? Why must everything about Ngige be politicized? A culti*st and ritual*ist placing a curse on an innocent man is simply the biggest joke of the century. As if the so called gods of the land are listening to him.mtcheeeeeew

U re talkin out of ignorance...am in Anambra now(Onitsha precisely)Ngige only has few Okada ppl as his supporter's...

Seriously,a lagosian aspirant will not fix a politically rally on Eyo festival day.Igwe please forgive your son Ngige,I'm sure he was too eager to start the process of turning Anambra state to a prosperous state like lagos.This is the 21st century Mr traditional ruler,onitsha is not the capital city of Anambra state.Please next time move your okalla,ofada or whatever to the interior part of the state to allow progressives to deliver the dividend of democracy to the good people of Anambra state.

obayaya:

what you forgot is that the ofala is a week long festival but Tuesday was it's peak when agbogidi makes his revered appearance..

and who told you a mammoth crowd followed Ngige? a mammoth crowd of okada men and barrow pushers looking for who will throw money at them..

the same ppl ran after ifeanyi ubas rally entourage at Tarzan and new parts.. I can authoritatively tell you that main market Onitsha didn't bulge during Ngige's rally

So can you tell me why the Obi of onitsha was so pissed that he placed a curse on Ngige??

The point remains that there were more pple at Ngige's rally than there were at the festival. Shikena

person shit wan turn to another person own. Ndi yoruba leave ndi igbo and their culture alone. When has anambra election turn to yoruba election? Wonders shall never end.

In as much as I don't know and don't care to know whatever thrash you people call it....the bottom line is that it is a traditional practice that have no home in modernity.....( am using what your hypocrites use often)

You all are just bloody hypocrites including your ashebe Igwe

Yeah a man who calls his tradition thrash will often disrespect other people's, so I do not expect you to reason.

What's the use responding to hypocrites like you? Nansense... Abeg jump and pass jare...

Pastor Ola: Who will say a thing and it will come to pass if God has not said so. Curse, curse less

You're pastor and the Bible told you to disrespect your community leaders abi? Btw, he did not curse him...Don't forget also, the Bible said that everyone who lives by the sword will go by that same sword. Ngige disrespected and dishonored the igwe by his actions, and thus will live with the consequences.

where u in both place of the event or person way go tell u.its would been a pluse for nigge is he had waited for the festival to end ppl carrying out his rally he would hv gone to other places and come back to onitsha leta who do u expect the ppl u dont value their customs and traditions to vote,nigge should have knw that in terms of voting onitsha and nnewi has the highest.

The Obi did not curse him, he simply made a statement, let justice decide if he's guilty or not...

There more people at Ngige's rally, is it not common sense that Ngige used Obi's festival to hold a rally? On a normal day, he couldn't have so he hurriedly fixed the date so as to make it seem like he pulled the crowd. If he was a real campaigner, he would have done his rally on a regular day so we can the turnout.

Onitsha is just a one town in Anambra state out of hundred of other towns, so stop crucifying Ngige because there is never a way you would treat every body heartwarmly at thesame time. Ngige my Chief abeg dey front jare we follow u.

o'boy:
i have nufin to drag with you
was it not you who said on the other thread that you were born and bred in the north,what do possibly know about igbo people?

No doubt, you just have nothing to drag with him. So, if you were born and bred in one part of the country, you CANNOT know the culture of your people in another part of the country? You sure have something against seeking knowledge. o'boy, upgrade.

Eledan: While others are forging ahead building bridges...making alliances and building friendship across their ethnic divide....you are are doing exactly the opposite...

...and one useless village group call Ohaneze is asking for Presidency... you lot behaves as if Nigeria will cease to exist after GEJ

Keep doing what you are doing.

So building bridges is in ur apc constitution, bt fashola is been breakin bridges by deportation and all his anti-igbo policies in lag, when u nid our vote so as to annex our wealth to ur criminal godfada u rmbr building briges. Bridge ndi Yoruba gbakwa oku. Na by force to force alliance with u hypocrites?

Any curse from Royal fathers are deadly, Ngige should go and beg Obi Achebe before the gods become angry, Ngige should remember what happened to Awolowo when Oba of Benin Cursed him, because of Oba of Benins Curse Awolowo ended up doing a free advertisement for the perfect way to use Rat poison called Otapiapia, that was the end story of Awolowo

From one side of your mouth you blamed Ngige and from the other side you advised the Igwe to move the festival to the interior because Onitsha is not the capital of Anambra. Why speak from both sides of your mouth? Are you not confused yourself? The man is the Obi of Onitsha for God's sake. Are you suggesting he moves to Awka or what? You just succeeded in saying +1-1=0. Go tell the Awujale to shift his festival from Ijebu Ode to Ilishan. Politicians without Wisdom!

that is correct just one town so why not pick from the other hundreds instead of picking Onitsha it is obvious that his Godfathers wanted to prove how they can and will continue to disrespect Igbo people!

I should have known great minds think a lot, this is the point I was going to make, his supporters were afraid that because of his past transgressions it would be a huge embarrassment when the supporters were few, so pick a day when plenty of people from all over Igboland and beyond come to celebrate with Igwe. The crowd is already in the vicinity some will come and see which fool could disrespect tradition in such a way. Mess up big mess up

Afam4eva: Make i no lie, with the kain crowd wey i see for Ngige campaign, if i be Obiano, i for don dey run temperature. The crowd was massive. I think Ngige is the governor in waiting. Nothing can stop him. I think the Obi of Onitsha who happens to be one of my favourite Igwes in Igboland should desist from being partisan. There's nothing wrong in doing one's campaign on ofala festival day. Does it mean that there's no one doing their wedding, birthday, church crusade etc on the same day? Why take it out on Ngige? I just hope the relationship between Ngige and Obi Achebe will not be similar to that of Rochas and Eze Ilumuanya when Ngige becomes governor.

Afam Afam Afam4eva how many times did I call you Biko Biko do not allow political favoritism blind you of cultural tradition you are better then this!

Like seriously, I knew this is why he did it, but he failed woefully because he has pissed off more pissed and created more enemies. Ndi Onitsha will not forget this gesture, and when others hear about it, you think they will tell him good job? Ka anyi nene anya, ife di abuo, ofu ga eme.. person who calls his home useless will someday come crawling back into it.

I don't play partisan politics and there's no reason why i will favour Ngige over any other candidate as i have been more critical of APC even more than the most hated party in Africa(PDP). I'm only trying to understand if there's a rule that says that no one can host an event on an ofala festival day. I'm saying this because i believe that since Igwe Achebe has a soft spot for Peter Obi and has invariably endorsed Obiano, that he's just using Ngige as a scape goat.

[size=28pt]PAGAN FATWAH! [/size]

But on a second thought, i think Ngige and those around him are 1diots. As a governorship candidate, it's advisable that you try as much as possible not to step on people's toes as it may come back to hunt you. Even if there's no rule prohibiting anyone from conducting a campaign on a day set aside for the Ofala festival, common sense should tell Ngige that he should move his event to a later date and even attend the festival and pay homage to the Obi of Onitsha. That's what smart politicians do. He should not take actions that will be counter-productive as people especially from this part of the world are very traditional. This is similar to when he came out to speak about the deportation saga which he shouldn't have spoken about whether what he said was wrong or right. people should be wise when playing politics.

An idol worshipper places a curse on 'a christian' and we wait for the result

A ruler of the Igbos places a curse on an Igbo subject.
