Who Is An Igbo?definition by tonychristopher: 8:52pm On May 27, 2015
We understand the cultural evolution of people and migratory patterns of our forebears but as the society have evolved to this state there are things that we African must know ...this is not whiteman defnition of us but by us

There are people that are confused about how igbotic they are. I will love to use this medium to define what makes you an igbo person ..a tribe known for their ressilience and doggedness

An igbo is who both his parents are igbo or especially the father . Igbo land is patriachial and follows father line

An igbo is some one that comes from places that have four market days such as eke afo nkwo orie

An igbo is one that have an offor and ogu philosophy in their place or village

An igbo is someone that call land or earth goddess ani ,ana or ala

An igbo is some one that calls supreme being chukwu olisa or obasi

An igbo is one that celebrate kola...orji

Who said you are not in a position to define who is Igbo? My question was why defining and redefining Igbo is what two-third of your comments on NL are about. Almost as if you feel Igbo nationhood is under threat and you have to save it by flooding NL with Igbo this, Igbo that comments/posts.

Is the Igbo nation under threat?

And why do you keep spicing your replies with Igbo words? Do you always assume strangers understand your language? undecided

I have never redefined igbo and I am not in that position to do that, I just follow the laid norm and truism in igbo matters and mind you i am Igbo and too igbotic and I am proud of it, the way a french man spices french when speaking english that is the way i spice igbo because I am a proud igbo..ighotago and I know that we are not cowed, I guess you are from SS what ever that means those peeps have serious issues mana oburo hancha anyway

Who is threating igbo..what they could not achieve during the war time is it within the paece time of 2015 with over 40 million Igbo...the question is that other Nigerians especially these Niger Delta swamppy clans have fear and threatened of Igbo swallowing them...nne it is the other way round...we Igbo especially pure breds are known to be proud and never cowed..ina aghota


I hope that uche gi di ya...nne...ngwa

if you aint igbo so why are you interested on who is igbo...the thread is for those that are bit confused on their igboness..those that bear Ngozi, Emeka yet are confused..those the igbo call Efulefu that needs rehab but if you aint Igbo nne, you dont need to worry


this thread aint for you

No, you are not a bit busy. You've been coming back on this post with replies really fast. You had enough time to dig up comments I made weeks ago.

You do not want to address that mess of your thread. You're trying to save face with the 'I'm busy' line.

Bye...nwa mbaala.

^ You are a joke, I swear. An unfunny, pitiable joke.

So, you made a childish comment at 11:51. I rolled my eyes and ignored it. Then you came back over 30 minutes later, and dropped another even more childish comment, hoping to get my attention. Bored much? Need someone to talk to, you bored lonely man?

What happened to being a bit busy, eh? grin

And, erm, when you typed 'obele ndi' instead of 'obele nsi', you could have used the modify button, instead of making a whole new comment. What are we now, IT-challenged?

Oddly enough, it is the only Nigerian language I speak tolerably well... Thanks to the Nigerians I surround myself with. smiley
