let me chip in some religious history about my tribe (Ebira). It all started when almost every ebira indegine surname are all Islamic names, being a land mix with the two religion we always happen to argue a lot and they end up telling me that our fore fathers are all Muslim and we Christians deviated. so I decided to ask my dad whose dad answered a Muslim name(my present surname) but later converted into Christianity before his death. According to my dad since okene land was in d central Christianity came from the eastern southern part with their love and humanities but when Islam came everybody with the fright everybody had to answer a Muslim name so as to be recognise as one of them but they all continued in their traditional life style. All my grandfathers siblings all answer a Muslim name and that's same for all families it was later on their children after traveling chose the religion they wish to embrace begin to convert or either remain Muslims. all of my grandfather's house hold converted into Christianity but to be well recognised in okene land you have to be a Muslim, one of my uncle had to convert into Islam to succeed in politics.

Your father lied to you. We know how missionaries used deception and trickery to forcefully convert Muslims into Christianity, it took the efforts of some prominent Ebira Muslims to end such. Islam came to Ebira people first before Christianity. Omehi Wa dahi?

when I was typing this post it came across to me that there will be some children that were not well brought up and can address elderly people however their tongue leads. well I never said Islam didn't came first but it was not practised as of now it was all an eye service they still carried out their traditional worship. as for the religion with deception, fright and so on you should know the religion causing the Nigerian economy with no rest of mind. OK yea, it is called the religion of peace

Truth hurts you know. The hardship presently bedeviling this country is not something that can be attributed to any religious group as it relates to the state of the economy. As for eye service some of the adherents of the two religions are guilty of this and this is not peculiar to Ebira people alone as such is the case in most places. As for disrespecting your dad I never did that I just clarify the truth of the matter as so many onlookers will take your words as the truth. As for using trickery and deception Osun people knows better. Last but not the least the Muslims committing heinous crimes are doing so based on their flawed understanding of the religion and Muslims scholars as well as rulers are fighting against the renegades both ideologically and militarily. So, onyeiza relax your mind and stop picking offense when non was meant. Izeiza omé vuu I hope you understand this phrase

there is no reason dragging issues with you. well I grow up with a mentality of not just accusing elderly and if you understand my post very well I didn't contradict what you say just highlighted a few point so am right. well what ever you see it as its okay just to end it all.Izeiza one vuu dtx why it's still lingering to my time

Some families have no problem with interethnic marriages while some will complain about it but in most cases such families do succumb to the wishes of their child.
