Then u ve to go back and read back my initial post. Once it is by inheritance, then they use one palace, but if it rotates, then, the palace goes to the house of the current igwe.
Except only in onitsha,

So wherein lies the corolation between Onitsha and Bini with respect to location of palace?

In Bini kingdom kingship is by inheritance while in Onitsha it is rotational!!!!

And in your earlier assertion you highlighted the centrality of Onitsha Palace as a criterium. To some kind of linkage with Bini, yet they have different Kingship system!

Guy go back to your History books

Must u always speak yoruba or use yoruba analogy, abeg form ur own.. tongue

..Typical of yorubas, so you ran away when I called you out on that thread, bah?

You open your oily mouth to say Ojukwu did not declare only the eastern region as Biafra; and when I ask you to stand on your claim, you flee and claim I was asking you to do war research.

I know your type, lots of you are on NL that come to mix half-truths with pure lies, trying to deceive gullible minds and those that don't know better... , unfortunately for y'all, gone are those days that the media is dominated by one side and lies are told as fables that become truths to unsuspecting masses in your part of the country.

I am sure this is not your first and it wont be the last lie you would tell against Igbos and Ojukwu, but be rest assured that if you get away with it once, you wont get away with it all the time, mr. had-Ojukwu-seceded-only-with-the-eastern-region-no-one-would-have-cared.

I tot they say yorubas dont leave their Eldorado SW .... do you know how much it costs to dig a borehole in hills Umuahia and aba are on hills, you think its Lagos or Portharcourt they use bare hand to dig boreholes,.... here in portharcourt you can dig a bore hole with 80,000 naira while in Abia you need like 500,000 naira
..stop giving wrong information about what you don't really know, i have lived in Aba, and even worked with a construction firm that also drills boreholes, a bore hole is drilled manually and the best form of clean water is gotten within a day..it is only in those hilly parts of Abia that much money is needed to get bore hole water.

If i tell you your land is landlocked and erosion ridden with floods happening every corner you would say i am hating, I tell you you have some most dirtiest cities and poor governance you would say i am hating....Now i say you are better than Dubai with goldplated roads and Bugatti for taxi and i am still hating. I tell you the truth and i am hating, I tell you lie and i am hating. What is wrong with you Igbos.


One thing that you shld knw that there is nowhere in Nigeria where bad governance in not shown but one thing about the East is that they have struggled to develop on their own without heavy federal presence as is shown in other regions. God bless you.

name the dirty cities in anambra that you know, show me evidence of floods.

when was the last time you heard of floods in anambra state like the ones that happen in lagos even in victoria island.

do not mistaken abia state or imo with anambra state they are totally different states with different people and governments.

if you think anambra is growing quickly, pls pay a visit to enugu state.

though it is not an oil state, it is way neater and more developed than the so called oil states.

can i add safer as well.

FACT is you are a hater.

worry about yours.

abeg imo and abia peeps. i am not yabbing you biko


Its not like you are yabbing. Its just the truth. I am from Abia state but was disappointed the last time I travelled there at the level of things. Trust me Abia and the East in general is a place with great potentials. Just hope the governors will cme 2gether to see hw to develop it. Peace.

In Aba,
you should find water in about 80fts, but crystal clear water in About 120fts,
There are no rocks underneath, so you shouldn't have difficulties in manually drilling for edible water within a day.

We used a borehole earthing for the new 300Kva transformer we recently installed in our street, as always, its our very own effort and no Government's input, that borehole was manually drilled by 5 young men and attained 80fts within 4hrs or less because they came around 4 and left around after 7.

Its not clean water per say but that hole will not dry up anytime soon.
and we paid 40k, though no pipe was installed.

I know, what prompted that was som1 said it's difficult to see a house in the east without a borehole so I was just letting him know most houses don't have boreholes in Abia, that we buy water there
Where exactly did you stay in Umuahia? Some houses definitely will not have borehole water but I think 85% of houses in Umuahia should have borehole.

I'm from Umuahia (Nkwoegwu to be precise). The borehole in my house was dug manually and in less than 6 hours we got sparkling clean water. The cost was around N250k and I think that amount was even a rip-off.
