Lakal, round of applause. You are such a disgusting gentleman! You came over here and start spewing rubbish u knw nothing about. You stated that the "fluffy" garment worn by the AGBOGIDI was of benin origin and I countered you on that one and explained to you that such attire is also worn by Idemmilis,but I didnt get any reaction. U claimed the sword originated from benin and I told you that we also have it in Idemmili. Again, I didnt get ur response! And all of a sudden u realized it doenst worth a discussion after you have discovered that your claims doesnt hold a drop of water!!! Keep it moving,yaribo boy. |

NRI PRIEST: Who mentioned that agbada was "invented" by the Yorubas? Not one person invented agbada, different ideas from diff region pieced it together. Yorubas fashioned agbada to their taste. What you see in those pictures are prolly made by Yoruba tailors Oya, I want all these ld IDs to start coming out, you hear Crayola1: Try not to. More pixs plz |

NRI PRIEST: No need to insult when you've been beaten by simple logic |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 6:28am On Nov 09, 2011 |

Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 6:31am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Crayola1: You still trying to stop me, bro? |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Crayola1: 6:32am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Ileke-IdI: I thought we were all for multiculturalism? You borrowed from them, why not give back, its the least you can do The simple solution to the problem is go into purdah and guard you fashion from thieves or strip naked, though of course that look has been copied so many times unfortunately |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 6:33am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Have the pictures finished? mba!! Lovely acculturation from different tribes in these pictures: Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo and Bini. But mostly Yoruba if you take away the carnival feathers. |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 6:34am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Crayola1: You thought right Crayola1: Oh dear, you re-edited and added more. |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Crayola1: 6:35am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Well I do hope you give credit where credit is due of course from Nigeria's Northern friends who were kind enough to pass it onto your people of course |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 6:36am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Crayola1: Plz re-edit and add 5 more lines for the sake of it |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 6:39am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Multiculturalism. Lovely thing, aint it
|
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 6:40am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Wow, more interesting ones will be back so that we can go off topic again. |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Crayola1: 6:44am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Ileke-IdI: Well as they say "The truth hurts" lmao no wonder you are looking through my posts for a guiding light lol I'm not Ouija board you know?! You wont find a hidden message in my posts if you circle the first letter of every sentence I am a fan of fact though, and for revisionists and trolls who have nothing better to do but score points, they have to fall back on humor and jokes because BS rarely every stands up for very long So I thank you for adding yourself among my collection of fans, I will continue to dazzle you with my "magic" |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 6:45am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Crayola1: You're welcome, plz do come back when more pictures are posted. I'll definitely will be here between the hours of 5-8pm. |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 6:46am On Nov 09, 2011 |
^^^ Hours can definitely be extended if need be. I'm also usually on Politics section, I need a fan there too. |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Crayola1: 6:46am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Anyway, the ceremony looks very nice, it would be nice if Nigeria harness its cultural diversity to open up another avenue of revenue in the nation. Anything that lessens the dependence of oil to support the country is a plus in my book |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 6:48am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Crayola1: They sure do, dont tho. esp with the Yoruba influence. I love the lace cuts. I'd say the horse tail is also a Yoruba influence too, but will need to check more on that. I know that it was the Yoruba oba's thing to carry horsetail as a sign of royalty. |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Crayola1: 6:51am On Nov 09, 2011 |
So when facts come out that it was borrowed and re-borrowed again, I do hope your song doesn't get a second chorus and fourth verse lol I always wonder for someone who claims the superiority of their ethnic group, you are looking quite petty now Ileke-IdI: So after roaming the streets you come home to do "real work" lmao I can't say I've seen you in the politics section though, I have head if a mad woman that claims crazy for sense, you wouldn't be familiar with her would you? Anyway, I have fan letters that need mailing now, I suggest you close of that defunct thing you call a "fan club" and get serious lol |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 6:55am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Crayola1: So you're no longer a fan? Mehn, that was short. nywaz, it'd be interesting to find out how horsetail reached other part of Nigeria. It's usually in every Oba's picture. Havent seen it in any Bini's king picture [img]http://4.bp..com/_3LhPdlP4_fw/TAzl3F8tGRI/AAAAAAAAAD4/ReZLl0Anj7E/s320/bini+oba.JPG[/img] |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 6:56am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Crayola1: Oh dear, una fit vex for here o Borrowed re-borrowed and borrowed again The cycle just never stops |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Crayola1: 6:58am On Nov 09, 2011 |
^^ Well you were swearing that Yoruba people were the source of all things agbada in nature now No not really, I don't get annoyed by Nairaland folks, I find many quite amusing to say the least I wouldn't flatter yourself too much, every circus has clowns Well in this life no one has original claim to anything, everything is borrowed and re-borrowed, but we can go with your opinion that that the Sun rises and sets in your part of the world, a bit egotistical? No? Ileke-IdI: Well not much to be a fan of in the first place If I want vapid airheads, there is always pop music and reality tv for that. No need to follow a faceless entity. I'm glad you've moved on to more sensible things, I guess some dogs can learn new tricks |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 7:00am On Nov 09, 2011 |

Discussion will be continued from where I left off: Yoruba's traditional horsetail. No need to vex ppl, just appreciating wonderful multiculturalism. This thread na real wazobia! |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Crayola1: 7:05am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Ileke-IdI: Wow, lord people just claim fans left and right, now I know how the Justin Biebers and Beyonces of the world feel, fans start thinking they know you on a personal level If you don't here back from me folks I'm probably being kidnapped and carried off to Ileke-Idi's shrine in my honor Well if you had acted like a reasonable person and talked about multiculturalism, instead of looking for "pity cool points" I might have not turned down your offer to lick the stamps for my fan mail Good night fans, friends, and haters of course |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 7:12am On Nov 09, 2011 |
Yea, I came back for something else. . . . forgot to mention sth. I sincerely love the yoruba agbada on page 5, real exquisite. you dont really get that texture from the Hausa tailors. The one wearing white agbada in the middle |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Crayola1: 7:16am On Nov 09, 2011 |
That's why one must invest in a good pair of hater blockers: Limiting your exposure to hateritis is always a must |
Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Nobody: 7:17am On Nov 09, 2011 |

Re: Pictures Of OBI Of Onitsha Doing Ofala Ceremony by Crayola1: 7:41am On Nov 09, 2011 |
