I no understand.

Why is Bafarawa playing the role of the Dad here?and if the wedding was held in Abia, how come I am seeing more Babariga and Danshiki than any Igbo traditional wear?

I get it. They refused to invite the Igbo's.

Well I don't know. I'm not from the SE igbo area so I was just making assumptions when I wrote that. I was trying to say that just like some popular Anambra names is found among our people, it's very likely the same for other parts of igboland as well. I don't know though, just assuming..

Nwokem , Anioma is a stone throw from Onicha. Anambra has some very distinct names like Oranyelu, Offorma,Idigo, Mbanefo,Achebe, Oranusi, Izuora ,Obiajulu, Arinze, Orakwue...etc. These names and so many others are names that single you out as Anambra person

If una wan praise unaselves, do so without displaying craze stupidity.

No be una wey shout let and right that NOI is a tribalist and Igbo hates North. No be una tried to destroy her reputation internationally and failed miserably.! Now she invited una to her son's wedding, person no go hear word.

There is something obviously wrong with you people. There is something seriously severely wrong with you animals of that shithole country.

I don't even know why any igbo tries to interact with any non Igbos of that shithole. No matter what they do, you animals will always find away to complain and
Show your hatred. I don't even get why any Igbo even tries.

Anyway back to topic, congrats to the couple.
shut it bro....go back to the first pags and see those who started complaining about Northerners in the picture if they are not Igbos. Your people are just too bigoted i swear,.

Chances are the groom is from the North and the bride is from Abia State, if that's where they are.

You get married at the bride's place not the groom's. Inter ethic/ tribal marriages are the way forward smiley

The both look happy and long may it continue.

How can the groom be from the North, when he is Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala's son, and his father is from Abia state?

trolley:
None of them is from the North. The groom is Uchechi Iweala (Former Finance Minister's son) and the bride is Chioma Achebe (grand-daughter of Chinua Achebe).

Projecting definite conclusions from a few pictures convey lack of critical thinking.

Thank you, o! See as he added 2 plus 2 and got 75. angry

Monkey these were the first post on this thread, point out which Igbo complained about the north before your illiterate brothers displayed their crass stupidity and attempt to praise themselves.

In fact most Igbos are more focused on why The wedding was in the groom's state, not the wife like tradition states than focused on the northerners there. No-one gives too f2ks. The only Igbo that spoke about the northerners replied to your illiterate brothers whining about. Go and get your eyes checked cause you obviously have an eye disease

Except for Oranusi and maybe Oranyelu, Enugu west people bear all the other names mentioned as surnames. They are not peculiar to Anambra alone.

I'm confused.

There are more northerners in agbada with turban than Igbo's.

meanwhile, I'm surprised NOI is chummy with someone like bafarawa. Same bafarawa who took money from dasuki to prepare jazz/charms for the 2015 election.

Illiterate I suggest go and get your eyes checked or better yet borrow a brain cell from a goat even. Though proper reading comprehension would have helped your monkey ass decipher whether the ids were Igbo especially since one made it extremely easy by using the term "her kinsmen" as well as tried to insult an Igbo by making the comment " hawk at upper iweka" not suprised common sense eluded your worthless tribalistic mind. A simple click on the two ids and read their own past contents would have saved this your worthless attempt to save face. Now go back to being the buffonish tribalistic eerily with poor eye sight and get the Bleep of my mention. I have better things to do. I rather continue my conversation on trying to piece the puzzle of why they didn't follow tradition than engaging a tribalist cunt with the brain cells of a rat. Go and join your illiterate brothers like I said in displaying their crass stupidity and Bleep off my mention.

This is simply worth outstanding. The genuine smiles of the new couple, their simplicity and the bride's costume - no make up/jewelry. Yet she looks so lively.
Yet they can afford it without looking up to anybody for support. Simplicity at it's best. Even Mama Ngozi - Former Minister is simply shinning with no make up and light jewelry.

Wishing the couple happy married life.

I personally know a man from Enugu with the last name Oranuzi so your wrong on that part. Likewise Arinze is also found in Anioma as well. Since there are some Anambra names you believe as just for Anambra are found in none Anambra as well then, Achebe may be one of them as well undecided

I'm just trying to piece the puzzle on why they had the igba ukwu in Abia

Dear all, the guy in question is a relative, the traditional wedding was in anambra while a little party was organized for people in abia state. I hope that settles the why the wedding in abia state. Also they met in their first year at Harvard.

Well, I have not seen anybody from Enugu bearing any of the names I listed. Arinze is of recent that Enugu started bearing it. The name is rooted in Anambra central and Enugu does not bear Obiajulu, Akolisa, Osakwe, Mbosa, Okosa etc

Enugu does not bear Oranusi,Mbanusi and if you think I am wrong then tell me what it means. The naming style follows a dialectical approach. Anioma started using Oluchi of late just like Imo , Abia and parts of Enugu are using Ifeanyi, Oluchi, Chimamanda, Chidera and Achebe are mostly found in Anambra north and central

Do not know if true?
Think I saw this somewhere,that her son married Chinua Achebe's granddaughter!

But won't be surprised people are asking why more Northerners,ask herself and her husband how many times he,she or they visited Abia whilst she was Minister.
She married from my community in Umuahia,and I can tell you that her achievement there was constructing a tarred road to her husband's compound(since she is from Delta State).
Many times she was met,jobs,land for development,skill acquisition,scholarships,all cos 90°.
She was Minister of Finance(twice),Minister of Foreign affairs for a short stint but come to that community,you will never believe a councillor has passed through there.
Nobody said you should share money but empower people,no way.
So,I am vehemently opposed to a Buhari as a President but ask yourself,we might blame every other person for our woes,but let us look inwards,we indeed are our own problems.
Look at Enelamah,who is from my mother's village,also in Umuahia,the road to his village is untarred,and rickety ...but he is a Minister today...infact in the village they call him puppet....his allegiance is first to Osinbajo who nominated him than to empower his people,tomorrow if he is removed,we will start grasping straws again.I know how many times emissaries have been sent to Enelamah,but what he told them was that he is a Minister of the Federal Republic and not Minister of any community or state and I laugh),we have seen and heard that before.......

Empower people and not tomorrow we will start looking for who is our problem?

Am open to abuses,its a free world and it's a New Year.
wao! God bless you. This is a big lesson for the upcoming public office holders.

It must be realised here that it is the poor people that engage in ethnic and religious discrimination while the rich people think alike and see themselves as one.
