Ah! That's d difference between the Igbo and the Yoruba. We are republican and therefore no one being takes a decision over and above all others without consultation and agreement. The Deji cannot change the title of the Igbo representative just because of his personal desire and we will not just accept the way you do because we are not wired thar way and it is not in our nature. Also understand that traditional rules are personal rules only binding on adherents or indigenes of that area. The Deji does not decide who amongthe Igbo will bear a title and what thar title will be.

We will respect your traditional norms but will not lose ours in the process.
well as a Yoruba man I'm not wired to watch a snake crawl through my door and exit through the window just because it is forbidden by ibo laws. so if I build my mansion in Onitsha and I see a Python in my house am I free to kill it?

He does not get to choose the title of the leader, no sir. He has no idea what the chosen title represents to the people. He also cannot drive them away. He must respect the differences that there are between traditions because visitors are not expected to lose their identities.

In Yorubaland all titles are approved by Kings of each jurisdiction/kingdom. Anyone not willing to conform is free to leave. Even the government recognises the authority. Have you seen Hausa people fighting other people over their right to desecrate other peoples traditional laws and customs. Only Igbos do that. They insult everyone but want to live in that same land. If there were to be hostility against Igbos for the constant provocation. Igbos will lose. We Yoruba hardly live in the east because you guys are so unfriendly and hostile.

Grow the balls and liver to build first...lol

Fact is that it will not even come near ur abode because it knows strangers. The eke is not troublesome so it will not even come around a place occupied by strangers, you would be the one courting trouble if u go out to hunt n kill it.

The Deji has no understanding of the tradition of the Igbo man so what title does he understand enough to choose? It is the height of ignorance to even suggest that! He only authorises and approves yoruba titles which culture he understands and practices not that of other tribes. Besides why is he only the one hurting over the title of Eze Ndigbo in the entire SW? You mean the Deji chose the title of Sarkin and all others that Hausas or Northerners bear in the SW? Please stop lying and elevating him to some god-like status, he has his limitations and that is one of them.

We will not drop our identity and title because Deji has an itch in his pants, you would be really stupid fools to enter into hostilities because of the title of Igbo representatives on Akure.
