Igbo Leaders Reject Ojukwu’s Son As Ikemba II by leaks: 4:29am On Feb 21, 2012 |
Igbo leaders reject Ojukwu’s son as Ikemba II Igbo leaders have rejected the installation of the second son of the late Odimegwu Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, Emeka Jnr as Ikemba II. He was conferred with the title by the traditional ruler of Nawfia community in Anambra State, Igwe Chijioke Nwankwo. They said it amounted to bastardisation of Igbo tradition and cultural norms. The Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) leader, Ralph Uwazuruike, said Ojukwu Jnr has no locus standi to answer to Ikemba II because there is no portfolio which warrants such title. Represented by his second- in-command, Rommy Ezeonwuka, Uwazuruike said: “The title of Ikemba was given to the late Ojukwu at Nkwo-Nnewi Triangle by the traditional ruler of Nnewi, Igwe Kenneth Orizu III. “So, for Emeka to go to Nawfia, his maternal home town to be installed as Ikemba II is not something that is realistic in Igbo customs and norms. He said Igwe Nwankwo cannot install Emeka as Ikemba II because he was not the one who installed his father as the Ikemba I of Nnewi. The development, the MASSOB leader said, could be ill-conceived and instigate internal wrangling among the children of the late Biafran warlord. Uwazuruike decried the purported installation at a time when Ndigbo and the world are mourning the demise of his father, suggesting that it must have been selfishly motivated. “Ikemba was a title given to Odimegwu Ojukwu by Nnewi clan and if Ojukwu Jnr had received same from Nnewi clan, just as Uwazuruike was crowned Ezeigbo at Nri where Ojuwku was previously crowned, it would have been a welcome development,” he said. http://www.thenationonlineng.net/2011/index.php/news/37388-igbo-leaders-reject-ojukwu%E2%80%99s-son-as-ikemba-ii.html |

Gaddemm!!! Will these people just freeze everything until the real Ikemba is buried Uwazuruike is already warring with the Ojukwus for the rightful replacement of Ikemba! These fools should understand that no one can replace the one and only Ikemba. |

Everybody should calm down. As long as the title was not confered by Igwe Kenneth Orizu III of Nnewi, the younger Ojukwu is in the same league as other COUNTLESS "Ikembas" in Igboland. He may be Ikemba of Nawfia; I know of at least four other Ikembas from other automonous communities in Anambra state alone. There is only ONE IKEMBA NNEWI. |

Oh, NO!! Not again |
Re: Igbo Leaders Reject Ojukwu’s Son As Ikemba II by DuduNegro: 7:07am On Feb 21, 2012 |
Oh yeah, they are it again! sometimes i feel pity for the igbos. . . .wish I could help make life easier. Soon as they clear one shameful act, two more drop in. . . and its ususally from their leadership. They are divided. That Ezeship and Kingship system installed on them by Britain is not good for them. Igbo need a new brand. . . go back to how you used to be, no central leadership. It worked for you for centuries. . . until oyibo come dabaru everything and you have been problem since. |

why fight over Ojukwu's title? It belongs to only one man for now, no one else. Btw, ωħ☺ are the 'Igbo leaders' that condemned it? Cos ÄŁĻ I saw was Uwazuruike ǡŋ₫ MASSOB, is that enough to generalize by using the term 'leaders'? |

Uwazuruike just comes across as desperate to retain his 'status' as 'Igbo leader'. I've seen nothing to indicate that this man deserves this status in any way. |

Even Nigerians that had nothing against Igbos will find them extremely annoying once they arrive on Nairaland. I have never seen a more vicious, stubborn and uneducated swarm of tribalists in my life! It's like the Biafran War emptied their skulls of all cognitive function! Always arguing about irrelevant nonsense and claiming superiority when their cities and villages are no better (largely worse) than the rest of the Nigerian South. They don tire me oh! |

Some clownish ofemanus cannot breathe nor function for a day without coming to Igbo thread to publicly display their unequalled stupidity. chai wetin man no go see. One of such clowns is even proffering solution to Igbos on kingship; hun talk of a drowning man helping a wanderer by the bank of a river how possible is that These buffoons always avoid threads that ve to do with their people, they play ostrich to threads like this https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-874831.64.html#msg10235769 They should go and help their hunger ravaged people rubbish Physician heal thyself @ Topic everything is not politics, just like OnlyTruth said, Emeka jnr can be Ikemba of anywhere, Ikemba of Lagos, Kaduna, Asorock, Enugu America self , anybody can be Ikemaba of anywhere but there is only one IKEMBA NNEWI so no cause for alarm |

Re: Igbo Leaders Reject Ojukwu’s Son As Ikemba II by humblebee: 10:25am On Feb 21, 2012 |
the ikemba or whatever is it was given to ojukwu to honor him for his fight and struggle, so i dont think his son is doing anything similar to that. so he should be left to sell CDs on Onitsha market. what is it about titles and Ibos sef, im sure people will die for this and they will start counting scores very soon. they just kill for anything. shior |
Re: Igbo Leaders Reject Ojukwu’s Son As Ikemba II by Winnerslfc(m): 10:32am On Feb 21, 2012 |
I quite agree with Uwazuruike. That is not done. I think Ojukwu's son is dealing selfishly. |
Re: Igbo Leaders Reject Ojukwu’s Son As Ikemba II by OnlyRebel: 10:34am On Feb 21, 2012 |
