Compete against other igbo men na. Are other igbo men stopping Ebonyi men from comoeting for girls. Loser grin
I can comfortably compete with any man. The issue is the stereotype your people has put on Abakaliki people making your girls choose not to marry even the wealthy ones, and opt to remain single in 30s than do that. Joke is on your women, na them age dey catch up with.

How can you choose an average Anambra man than a rich Abakaliki man ? Stereotype ? People of my mama said I shouldn’t marry Abakaliki man even if he’s rich. Stereotype !

Abeg get lost. By time we are done paining back Anambra people for all they had done. We will go the Ikwerre way and move for Indiginization of Ebonyi state as a tribe in National Assembly since we are not called Igbo.

We must go the Ikwerre way.

Anuofia. If you’re not concerned about Ebonyi state why wasting your time on this thread?

You must be related to Okadigbo to be this pained.

Ebony state Government will not rescind in its decision. Get used to it. I suggest you move on.

Good. So get off this page and stop being here since it doesn’t concern you.

And for your information Ebonyi people will never be menial workers to other Igbos for a longtime. The next generation Ebonyi people will be teaching your own children at school as this generation are largely accepting school.

However, I don't think anybody renamed "Abakiliki Street" in Awka. E still dey very popular even now..
It was renamed officially. The Abakaliki name just stuck because transport men are more used to it.

Ebonyi amusement park airport is named after Okadigbo because Buhari knew that ebonyi people are slaves to Anambra people

Ebubu:
The first and second civilian Governors of Ebonyi State, Chief Martin Elechi and Senator Sam Egwu, have expressed dissatisfaction over the renaming of Ebonyi Airport from Muhammadu Buhari to Chuba Okadigbo Airport.

According to them, Okadigbo never contributed to solving the problems of the Ebonyi people.

Chief Elechi stated this during the epoch-making occasion of the celebration of Nigeria’s 63rd Independence Anniversary and the 27th Anniversary of the Creation of the State.

According to Elechi, who spoke on behalf of the founding fathers, Buhari assisted them during the problems and provided security during the struggle for the creation of the state.

He, however, called on the federal government to rename the airport after the late Senator Offia Nwali, an Ebonyian and the first black man to obtain a PhD in Computer and Analytical Studies from the United States of America.


“Ebonyi people are not happy to hear our new airport being called Chuba Okadigbo Airport. Chuba Okadigbo is a great Nigerian, but he is not known in Ebonyi State, and neither will Ebonyi people say this is what he did for them.”

“When I was Secretary of the National Party of Nigeria (NPN), Okadigbo was vying for the Senate. We were friendly. All I remember is that he used to visit me at 5 Igboeze Street, Enugu, and we would sit over a bottle of brandy until the bottle was empty.”



“We didn’t talk about Ebonyi people, their problems, or their solutions. Understandably, General Muhammadu Buhari knew our problems.”

“When he was the Brigade Major in Abakaliki, he gave us the pass that enabled us to go to Ogoja to plead our case. He assisted us to an extent with security personnel over what we were doing to create Ebonyi State.”

“We love him, and it was proper to name the airport after him. But since he didn’t accept it, we think the airport should be named after someone else.


“That airport is less than 10 km to the primary school where Offia Nwali made his marks as a student; that airport is less than 10 km to the road and the house of Dr Offia Nwali.”

“We think it will be more appropriate to name the airport after him, and that is the request I am making on behalf of the founding fathers and the people of the Ebonyi central zone,” he said.”

On his part, Dr Sam Egwu, who condemned the renaming of Abakaliki Street in Anambra State, urged Governor Nwifuru to rename Awka Street in Abakaliki.

Meanwhile, Hon. Chinedu Ogah, the Member Representing Ikwo/Ezza South Federal Constituency at the National Assembly, assured the Ex-Governors and founding fathers of sponsoring a bill with the support of the National Assembly to ensure that the airport is named after the late Senator Offia Nwali.

Imo state is the problem of igboland. Imo state is cursed and you people are the problem of igbos. Anambra is the most developed and most important state that produced the best human capitals and also harboured millions of imo indigenes that migrated to Anambra for greener pasture. Your envy and bitterness towards Anambra will continue to fail you. Anambra is the first born of igboland. Cry more

Abagworo:


Anambra people are the problem of Igboland. Ebonyi has no problem with Imo and Abia till date and nobody knows of any difference till date. In fact when Afikpo division was under Imo and Abia nobody noticed any difference and they produced the first Abia Governor. Anambra State needs to revisit their wrong perception of other Igbos based on artificial boundary created first by Colonial masters and further divided by Nigerian Governments. Every part of Igboland is gifted in one thing or the other.

Calling a people Fulani of the South East and calling them primitive is not marginalization ?

Calling them backward and calling them Osu or slave is not marginalization ?

Not building roads and schools and hospitals in Abakaliki province during its stay under East Central Government is not marginalization ?

Abakaliki province was called dust of the nation until the state was created and named salt of the nation.

Dust of the nation was because dust were everywhere due to absolutely non-tarred road.


Guinea worm and cholera plaqued people of that region when they were under Anambra and Enugu states because of your inability to provide them basic infrastructure and you don’t call that marginalization ?

If it was Nigeria doing same to you, you’d scream Biafra or death ! But you do it to Abakaliki people ?


Renaming of Abakaliki street in Awka because it was booming, to another name is not marginalization ?


Igbo dominated markets in Lagos giving turns to Igbo people of other states minus Ebonyi, to rule as President of the market premises, is not marginalization ?

Lolz

Thank Goodness Nigeria is doing to SE people what they constantly keep doing to us.

Our God is not dead. Our oppressors are oppressed and it is a delight.

This afikpo boy is in serious pains. Ebonyi people would always be referred to as the dregs of the igbo tribe. If you like wail from now till Jesus comes grin grin
