Cyriloha:



anybody from that part must change names before travelling abroad

Blessing Okagbare didnt change haer last ame
and she is one of the most successful Nigerians abroad...

If you are good at what you do, then people will learn to conform and call your name.

the best thing that can happen to you. My late wife was Urhrobo, but I'm not.

Wow, so sorry, may her gentle blessed soul rest in perfect peace.

Hope she gave you some beautiful lovely kids?


Btw urhobo people don't die...we just cross over and relax for a while, later we come back to our loved ones. Don't be surprised that your kids or family member will give birth to your wife's exact replica so far the love was strong. (So my grand parents keep telling me)

Nigeria needs to consider Urhobo people when printing out forms or even for international passport. Their names are toooooooooo long.

When you do great things, you don't have to change your name..people will learn it!!!
100s of Urhobos making waves in the international seen didn't have to change their name.




Urhobos are very proud, funny and respectful people who value Equality as mutual respect.

Blessing Okagbare married an Urhobo man, and since then commentators have struggled with the surname. Most people still call her Blessing Okagbare. Ighorteguonor is too long to pronounce.

Beautiful names though

He who knows the place of God in his/her life shall never be left wondering unguarded. Hence the 'Oghene' which translates to God
