Not only rich but extremely well educated. Most of Igbo kings had their first degree overseas; not in simple courses, I'm talking about medicine, PHD, engineering, e.t.c.

If they are indeed educated, why have they not applied their acquired knowledge to identify, modernise, conserve and integrate the finer elements of their culture into their buildings and lifestyle today?
Of what value is your education if it doesn't benefit your society?

at times when I see the way people defend or abuse some persons that does not care if they exist, it shows that we still have a long way to go in this country, some of you will come here and share pictures about your cities, artist, etc and the important part of your life you neglect, you call some places Brown roof, I doubt it if some of you have visited south western state's b4, you judge base on the few pictures you are online . my Grand father was very wealthy b4 he died about 40years ago, and before then he built a story building with Brown roof, with other houses around, my dad have several houses today , I can't even remember the last time he went to his home town, those Brown roofs you are seeing there are sign of progress, that are grand parents are wiser than yours, because they were able to put those structures in place.


So just shut the Bleep up, and stop all this your illogical reasoning

I am tired of seeing some youths acting as if they are still in primitive age.
if you like defend oni or obi, those ppl does not know you, and they don't care about whatsoever you think about them

if only you can channel your energy to the right things, the way you are doing with this, your life we be better than how it is today

many of our youths are unemployed instead of them using the social media as a means of sourcing out opportunities for themselves. post useless things that won't benefit their life

misplaced priorities

Mr Seun Osewa,

please call people to order.

The country is tense enough as it is. In as much as we want to respect people's right of expression, we cannot allow Nairaland to be used for radical tribalism. shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked

We all know how people have been radicalised worldwide through the internet. Many went on to cause massive carnage.

Snakemam Lala & other mods please take note.

Stop posting pics of a prostitute here. You and your Oni have no shame or dignity...went and wifed up a woman who has been tossed around and rammed by different Arab men. If he so much wanted a light skinned woman that is scarce in yorubaland, he would had pleaded with us in Igboland, and we would had gladly loaned him one like we loaned Chiwendu to Fani Kayode. We have gazillion of beautiful light skinned women and most especially...CLEAN AND CHASTE ONES! I did not mean to drag the Oni into this but this lunatic started it and needs to be taught a lesson to stay of Igbo threads.

when you talk of class and riches non of igbo kings stands near oni of ife and obateru of ondo.
Forbes an American businessmagazine just released a list of the richest Kings in Africa and two Nigerian monarchs made the list.
from oba of ife to oba of oyo to oba of Lagos and olubadan.
obi is the highest ranking king in igbo land but behind the 4 1st class kings in south west
peace.

Can you please point out just one thing oh that reflects African architecture in the palace pictures.
Thanks.

If our royal fathers are colonial mentality slaves to oyinbos in this day and age, what hope for liberation is there for ordinary citizens like ourselves?
What hope?
so are you suggesting they should have remained in their red mud building with rusted zinc? moreover the architectural piece wasn't a reason for my comment but the size,the beautiful lawns that could accommodate countless number of people at a time.

I don't think this guy has visited The East....I'm not an Ibo but must salute the Easterners for their innovations; enntreprenuerial spirit and organisation.....Education first came to the west...before the east but what we see today is educated westerners that spends years in school only to work for ill educated super wealthy Easterners .......

and when they are educated ....I mean the ibos....they are hardly ignoramus like some of us....they build an empire for themselves....unlike US here that makes a God of ourselves...

Ibos simply awesome....

How does "REFLECT Igbo traditional architecture" equate to "red mud building with rusted ZINC"?
Do you mind explaining?
Thanks.
