I ain't like that so it means am telling you the truth. Don't be fooled by that girl trust me.. Its very obvious she is not who she claims to be and am laughing at all the fools who keep following her up and down like sheep's.

Which normal person will intentionally spew false krap about their own country. Its only fake people that to so. Same thing with that kwame guy who was actually a south African pretending to be a ghanaian. Anyways 2 be honest if she wants to pretend to be an alien from space idgaf but as long as she keeps spewing fake trash about my country I will continue to call her/him/it out. Mtchew

Royal pearl I believe u owe makydebbie
An apology cos as far far as I can remember
She's been loyal soldier for Ghana,guess this
is a case of mistaken identity.. peace

All those times I fought for Ghana here the bitch never noticed. She should stop masturbating on my mention. I really hate bullies.
Hmm! Don't even know how to go about this.All I know is you both Ghanaians.Even though you may not be a 'thoroughly bred' Ghanaian due the fact that you grew up amidst Nigerian's who's influence you can't just discard, you still defend the motherland no matter what.I honestly can't tell exactly where this mix up began but I'll urge you both to let it slide and start anew. Peace out

why these pathetic obsession with igbos all the time,
should i call it inferiority complex?
if you are really a graduate,you need to return ur certificate back to the school,
gosh nollywood is real life to you,
where in Igboland do the do that?
If a widow want to barb her hair to honour the late husband,its her choice,
drinking of which corpse water? What kind of dumb lie is this?
Shame!
Bigotry is a disease,go cure yourself
Igbo and cry cry grin

What I first noticed immediately I hitted this thread were igbo making mockery of yorubas especially amala and ewedu when igbo oha is exactly human faeces.one was even saying they are not educated at all.A yoruba guy now retaliated you started cryinggrin



by the way,what do igbo have that people will feel inferior to?,Everyone know the chest beating tribe that always claim 70% of other tribe achievement on social mediagrin

Nobody force you to wat Amala. If you dont like it then shut your dirty mouth! We Yorubas love it.
This is how you ebowls insult people then begin to cry victim later.
Yoruba people have never cared if you like their food. Just dont insult them in the Cyber Space.
Ehn,those guys are very stupid.And if you find out very well he is probably typing from Ibadan or lagos.He has never gone to his village for the past 10yrs for the fear of being killed by village people in enugu.

imagine, someone wrote what was a culture shock to her, and you are saying it is not shocking (sic). Are you her?

she's a silly attention seeking girl. And to think her own culture shock ' is a wedding without jollof'. She's now attacking someone else. Girls sef

I was really surprised when I saw women riding motorcycles here in Nsukka, heard it was common practice in the south-east. Am used to it now.

Yorubers and their love for that blackish looking thing called amala together with that their greenish disgusting soup ewedu.

THE IBO HEREDITARY SYSTEM

what is the worth of a woman : in ibo tradition, an unmarried woman has no right in her fathers property. not even a say.

even when married and she never give birth to a male child she will not be allowed to inherit her husband property.

the female gender is seen as an object of satisfaction and if she doesn't meet up she is thrown out with contempt.

at their marriage the female gender is seen as a commodity that need to be sold her value tally with the things that the family had spent on her. if she had a degree education her bride price is of higher value. than those without education.

in the Ibo culture when a man cheat it is easily overlooked. but the case of a woman will invoke the curse of god and eternal damnation.

I see this things first hand during my service in the eastern part of the country.

I am of the feeling that the Ibo tribe need reorientation on civil ways of taking care of the child and not to see her as just an object because it is affecting the self-steem of an average ibo lady.

This is a BIG FAT LIE!!
This is only for the small enclosed settlement you were in.... Please dont generalise

My immediate younger bro I game 200k to start a mini business to support himself in school told me bet9ja virtual took the money when I wanted to give him the remaining balance last week.

I wanted to take him to army barrack so he could be dealt with, but on a second thought I think it won't solve the issue.

I would like to ask, Is it possible to get rid of virtual completely if you are addicted to it?.
