Is the Sultan really under the Governor of Sokoto?
Really?

It was a move to reimplement the indirect rule the British used and abolished on Ndigbo after the war.

Monarchy is alien to and incompatible with Igbo culture. Simple as that

Monarchy is not completely alien to Igbo culture hence the words Obi, Eze, Igwe, Ezeala, Ezenmo, Enachioken, Ezeigwe etc. that preceded colonization. At the point colonial masters came, monarchy had reduced in Igboland because they were living in peace without invasions and territorial wars.

That said, all traditional monarchy have long been abolished and constitutional monarchy established thereby making the Monarchs subject of Government

You just listed the titles Warrant Chiefs took.

I don't have energy to give free history classes to anybody this week. But if you have any person good in Igbo history, beg him to help you out.
Except if you are ready and Willing to pay for it

Before you give me that crap about Obi of this and that. When the British abolished what they created, they abolished all.

Thank you

Where is the picture to back it up Op ?

I am beginning to believe the ascertion by some British experts after they abolished the monarchy they created in Igboland in 1929. They said the move was to save the imposed monarchs from the wrath of the people after the "Aba Women's riot/war"

In igbo land every man is equal. Only achievements separate them and sometimes that's not even enough

Soldiers burn your house instead of to go figjt the soldiers una ho start to fight una selves, this Biafra go sweet o

That was before Britain bastardized the Igbo political system.

Some ignoramus over here think Enachioken, Eze, Igwe, Obi etc as political head is part of their culture.

What Illiteracy cannot do doesn't exist

Sebastine1994:
Power resides where men believe it resides.
It’s a trick. A shadow on the wall.
And a very small man can cast a very large shadow.






There are four men in a room - King, Priest, RichMan and Sellsword. The first three men each say the same thing to Sellsword - to kill the other two.

Now if Mr. Sellsword happens to be a devout man, he obeys Priest and kills King and Richman.

If Mr. Sellsword happens to think money is more important, he listens to Richman and kills King and Priest.

And finally, if Mr. Sellsword believes that it is his duty to obey King, he kills Priest and Richman.

Point? It doesn’t matter how powerful King, Priest or Richman consider themselves to be. Real power lies with the one whose claim Sellsword believes. It’s up to Sellsword at this point to make a call about who should be killed and who should be spared.

Sellsword here is ultimately a representation of the people. So it really is up to the people to decide who they believe in. No authority can hope to sustain power if the people don’t believe in them.

Power resides where men believe it resides.

the story and moral don't agree. by the story, power always resides in the sellsword.

To be honest with you, the very existence of the institution (monarchy) is not fair to the people the imposed monarchs claim to Lord over.
Its just a culture shock, nothing more.
There are stages a community of people pass through before kingdoms are established (it takes centuries) not a stroke of pen.

If Ndigbo were meant to have kings, they would have been that way before the Europeans came.

And please note that monarchy in Igboland is not for the people, they are Civil servants of the Federal Republic of Nigeria under the direct command of the State Governor(chieftaincy edict).

I doubt there is any monarch in Igboland the community will risk being scratched if people like this come for them.
No single community

Is Onitsha not part of Igbo land?

Is Onitsha not part of Igbo land?

And you expect me to pass such vital information about Onitsha political system to a Yoruba HATESman like you?

When will this people stop destroying their properties thinking they are passing messages to the govt?

Wallahi Taliban are far better than Ipob

There is an Obi in Onitsha before the arrival of the white man.

Stop speaking on behalf of Igbos in Onitsha

100% fact

When it comes to politics, Igbo people are not smart at all....
How can you people be killing yourselves and destroying your properties simply because some people are against your believe...
You people have to learn the game of politics from the northerners or you will never achieve anything...
NB: You people need to settle your affairs within yourselves first before agitating for Biafra or else it biafra is given to you people today, una go just kill una selves finish, that's if una no kill una selves finish before dey give una biafra oo

The Aba Women's riot was not only by Eboe women. There were Ibibio and Efik women amongst those who staged the so-called Aba women's riot.

Please, it remains Obi of Onitsha. The "Unknown Gunmen" or hoodlums should do the needful ASAP.

When that Ghanaian president killed all corrupt leaders in order to sanitise Ghana, was he not applauded?

Now igbos are sanitising themselves from within so they can make good progress

That particular community is very volatile, everything about them always end in problem, even among themselves they use granade to settle dispute.

Exactly.
Now, can you stop disturbing me?

I'm not forcing you to reply the truth.

Ah toh. But come to think of it, a fair and just ruler has no ill to fear from their subjects. But when the monarchy turns against the people, no shelter will be strong enough protection.

What happens to an 'unruly' people?

The afonjas again. What are they doing in Igbo land?

Emilokoiyawon:
It is not surprising that some blame Igbos for burning down Oba of Lagos palace.

Do you know Oba Akiolu's Palace in Lag? If you have been there, you will bear witness that no outsider can invade that palace. I saw what happened there, how his customized shoe was used for show by a tout. IPOB can't invade that palace let alone vandalize it as it was done, thank you.

TalibanEASTERN don strike again..

You want your freedom from Abuja, but na your own igbo people you dey skill and burn, shey na your own people in the SE dey hold your freedom?
