Why not? Egypt is a good place for a holiday. You get to see the desert and the pyramids.You have nothing to worry about.

Baba how about security and racism ?

The Arabs are very notorious for that

OMANBALA1:
Some unscrupulous characters have used the fact that the Igbo lost the war and became disjointed to keep spewing absolute garbage that keep driving the sword of division amongst the Igbo.

Its over for you. This is the age of internet. All lies are getting busted.

The other day it was forgiveness that swore Nduka Ugbade and Anyamelune were Yoruba names and were from Ondo. Its crazy!

Wetuo obi. Ozugo.

Egypt receives thousands of tourists annually of all races. It is generally safe.Go and enjoy your holiday, bro.

When did I say Nduka and Anyamelune are Yoruba names?

I said Nduka and Anyamelune are from Ugbodu (Ugbodumila) and they are Olukumis. Stop twisting my words.

If you don't agree they migranted from Ondo, you can dispute that with their paramount ruler who said and confirmed it. What is my own?

And as I write, he claimed Olukumi is their first language though they speak Igbo. What is my own again?

Abi you be the paramount ruler of Ugbodu (Ugbodumila)?

Agreed

I was suprised they played Chelsea and scored 3 goals away from home

They controlled the game. If not for the mistakes they made earlier, I think they would had beaten Chelsea.

The coach is good. I don't think he will last in that club if they go far in the champions League next season.

I no watch the game sha

But according to what you said I think Chelsea edge them out with experience

Mind you ,this same team kicked out Sevilla ,that says alot about them

andrew444:


Lol you can say that again bro

Barcelona shitty defence ,he should go and check the best defence in Europe this season , a defence without beast umtiti and an unknown lenglet stepped up .

I don't think the game will be easy for both teams. Although, I think Liverpool are more deadly.

As of today, the Ugbodu people don't speak the Olukunmi dialect. It's extinct. The people speak Enuani dialect. Stop pulling stuff from Wikipedia. Some of them still have Yoruba last names, but that's as far as their Yoruba gets.

Another example; we still have names like Obaze, Omozele, Attah,Idu in Anambra but they are neither Igala no Edo ,as the names suggest. These are assimilated settlers.

Arsenal sef eh. now Chukwueze is valued at €63million euros, and might be over 100 in 3yrs time. chai

Hello house, I am thinking of spending my annual vacation in Egypt to afford me the opportunity of watching the AFCON and of course see a lot of historical sites.

Icon4s, tbaba1234 and other widely traveled members of the thread, particularly those who were at AFCON 2006, is this a good idea?I mean in terms of things like :

security.

The attitude of the Egyptians towards blacks.

What kind of treatment should I expect if for example Egypt loses to Nigeria at a stage in the tournament

Financial implications, like what kind of budget I should be looking at.

The tourist attractions

Weather e.t.c

Please house, will u strongly advice an average Nigerian to embark on this kind of trip for vacation?

Your contributions will be appreciated.

Regards

My brother, as long as u can comfortably afford it go ahead. I have never been to Egypt and it is definitely one place I have always wanted to visit because of its historical significance as an African, a Christian and also one who has interest in History and Archeology.

Numerous places to visit during the day as u watch ur AFCON games in the evenings but make sure u Google "tourist sites in Egypt" and their various fees. This will help u plan and maximise ur stay. It will also help u in budgeting. Still talking about costs, the flight ticket is a little more expensive than that of Dubai/Abu Dhabi. I don't know about their hotel prices but u can Google that.

June is not too far away so start making ur travel plans now.

That was an interview with the king of Ugbodu (Ugbodumila) himself and it was published on Tribune newspaper.

It has become a genuine source of information because it's coming from the authority itself.

That's all I know and it's what I will believe because I can't know better than the paramount ruler himself.

Anything apart from that can't be use for research in statistics.

andrew444:


So Dortmund and city are better than Madrid and juve ?

Smh for you

At least dey speak truth and stop being sentimental

Pure Epl fan boy mentality

As per their performance this season,Dortmund and City and definitely better than Madrid and Juve..
Spurs faced equally tough oppositions....

No sentiments..

Icon79:
LOL. I made my recommendations directly to Andoni Zubizarreta. I don't have access to JM Bartomeu, but I am sure that Zubi knew what to do with my list, but Bartomeu is the problem. I can't wait to see leave that position. Barca hasn't made any progress since Sandro Rosell resigned.


O pari

LMAO, what is this that I'm reading?

The Highly feared and revered Senegalese under 17 team is currently struggling and now needs an outright win against group leaders Cameroon to stand any chance of qualifying for the Semifinals and the World Cup. The race is certainly not to the Swift. Selah

My comment yesterday on Manchester City bluemoon forum.

---

I think I am not too bitter because I am now used to being cheated by UEFA. A part people are not talking about is that Ederson got fouled before the goal and the referee let it stand.

As soon as the referee was going to check the VAR screen, I just knew the people in the VAR room will not show the referee that angle that was quite clear that Llorente used his elbow.

It is time we get this Champions League knockout phases right. If we are not blowing our opponents away, we will get cheated.

From Dailymail:

The ball hits Fernando Llorente's arm as he scores Tottenham’s vital third goal... but the footage wasn't used in the VAR review

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/f...nhams-vital-goal-against-Manchester-City.html


It is just a pity that the UEFA conspiracy lives on against Manchester City. I am used to it.

If at all anyone handled the ball, it was Laporte. All the angles revealed that pretty much. Guardiola can whine all he wants, if he aint careful, he gonna kiss his EPL title aspirations goodbye too. He needs to worry about his match against Tottenham on saturday

He will win Tottenham because they are playing at home

I want to ask a question

Why do all Epl teams hate mancity ?

When city was playing Tottenham everybody was against city ,you would nearly mistake city for Barca if you don't know who is playing ,I almost forget it was 2 English team that's playing

Is it because he won the league last season or what ?

Almost all Epl teams are seeing city as Barca ,they see it as Barcelona in Epl

I am very sure that all the English pundit that wants all English final didn't pray for it to be mancity

If mancity win the league again I think the hate will increase ,they are insulting him that he can't even win the champions league with city ,so dem dey forbid others English team to win champions league abi ?

If Epl team fails to win this season champions league I will put them in the level of Czech Republic league .

OMANBALA1:


Bia, Southgate, leave Igbo matters alone!! Stop sticking your nose into what you know nothing about. Gerrit?


This is for you, Southgate!!


Igbo ethnic group is probably the most diverse ethnic group in Nigeria. The language of the people varies from town to town, and its important to note that amongst the eastern Igbos some version of the language is not intelligible to others. For instance, I , an Anambra guy from Idenmili can understand 90% of the Igbo spoken in Enuani, Delta state but I will need a translator to understand Izii,Izaa and even Ngwa ,which are found in south east. I think the location of Agbor helped to support that "we are a distinct group" notion, but , in reality Agbor is an Igboid group with a heavy Edo influence,period. Just like Awka with Igala influence, Aguleri with Igala influence, Arochukwu with Cross River influence etc. The difference between these towns and Agbor is mere location. The Obi of Agbor bears Igbo names and so are the past ones. They claim they are not Igbo but they haven't been able to prove it beyond reasonable doubt.

Just recently, their Obi threatened his chief and subjects and asked them to stop speaking Igbo giving their children Igbo names...The problem, however, is that his name is.....wait for it....Ikenchukwu Keagborekuzi....lmao. His father also has Igbo names.

The Agbor people's DNA is Igbo ,they are subconsciously Igbo and this is the way they have always been....The current Governor of Delta state is Ifeanyi Okowa(Ekwueme of Ika)....lol.

Language;Agbor speak a version of Igbo mixed with indigenous words and foreign. The Obi of Agbor doesn't speak Ika or whatever they chose to call it. It's actually funny because the man is so culturally detached from his people. 99% of Ika kids born today are given Igbo names just like its always been. I think Agbor people have identity crisis. Its very sad.

Less, I forget. When people say "pure Igbo" ,we will need you to elaborate on that because there is no one single Igbo dialect intelligible to all Igbo. The Igbo spoken in Aba is different from what is spoken in Onicha,but because the Onicha Igbo was the first Igbo used in translating the bible ,and early Onicha traders used it for commerce it became most popular. Those who are ignorant of the Igbo sociocultural makeup shouldn't discuss Igbo matters.

I am not sure why you seem to be getting so heated, over a subtle observation.

Nonetheless, you have essentially with much detail confirmed my view, opinion and or observation.

Let me reiterate, I find that people in Agbor are just like many other parts of Nigeria overwhelmingly have given thier children European derived names. Which l think is very sad as a Nigerian.

I gave you the example of Nduka Obiagbiona and asked if his name is Igbo derived. You have answered that question albeit indirectly but still comprehensively.

So what is the core issue ❓ l seems we are delving into the politics of ethnicity, let me presume, that does being Igbo derived in origin or heritage make you Igbo ❓ ❓

Quite emphatically the paramount traditional ruler of Agbor has made it VERY RESOUNDINGLY CLEAR that they are not Igbo. Although they without doubt are historically by origin derived from the Igbo ethnicity. His answer is a capital NO.

But in today's contemporary Nigeria and ethnic dynamics they do not consider themselves to be Igbo.

That would be the same position for the Uhrobo/Isoko, Kwale and other somewhat Igbo derived and mixed ethnic groups in Delta state.

Don't presume that l am ignorant that's being condescending. I actually speak Igbo (central) l spent near 5 years at UNN where my Dad lectured for a period. And mixed with a lot of people who speak so many differing dialects it's impossible to number them.

I may have been born in the UK but l can assure you l was made in Warri.

You can judge by title but the effect of Guardiola can not be measured by titles but the quality of play which is definitely the best in the game today. That cheating, VAR or luck can not chalk off.

My respect for Ferdinand increased after he was the only one in BT studio who had the guts to admit the ball hit Llorente on the arm. It is a pity that the World is filled with so many fickle people who wants to see the better person cheated to suit their inferiority complex.

Majority of the EPL fans were happy that one of their best was getting robbed a chance to win the trophy. Either way, we march on.

‘That’s off his arm for me. That’s hit his arm. Watch the skin on his arm, it moves,’ Rio Ferdinand said, to which Lineker replied: ‘But even if it just flicks the arm and then goes onto the hips that’s not… is it?

‘I’m just saying the ball’s hit his arm and then it’s up to the referee to determine whether its a handball or not,’ Ferdinand said.

‘I think its handball personally I’ve got to be honest.’

They hate pep because he has schooled them over there in the Epl and he is from Barcelona

They also forget conte won the Epl in his first season at Chelsea

Ferdinard doesn't say nonsense he knows what he says and he is not bias like carragher who was crap during his playing days but knows how to criticize a player who is not English ,should I also remind you of Gary Neville ? One of the worst manager in the history of laliga

I don't want to talk about the city game as I respect VAR ,Tottenham are the deserved winners ,football is some how most times
