I dreamed that Rangers beat Enyimba by 3 goals to 1.

These Australian choir did rendition of Nathaniel's Bassey's "IMELA" and they nailed it. Music is a global language. Watch

Islam originated from the middle east of which Egypt, a part of Africa is still part of

Did it originate from Egypt of elsewhere in the Arab world, specifically around Saudi Arabia? Besides, i beleieve the OP was referring to native gods in Sub sahara Africa (Black Africa).

chiedu7:

Sorry allah is not God.

I mean when a man goes to worship he should come out reflective & sober.
Moslems when they leave the mosque they are blood thirsty.

That cannot be God.

See former muslims explain why allah is not God.

You've given yourself as someone who only reasons one way and you have your mind made. So, there's no use engaging you. I'll leave you to your ignorance. Jisike.

it look pretty real and i wonder why our movie people can't use the service of these makeup professionals.

chimkaire:
...mbok, have U heard them use "God" to substitute "Allah"?
Find this book and read it up; Who is This Allah.
Don't let them catch you with it

Why will or should they use it when English is not their language.

buygala:
I mean the Islamic Allah

Ok. But that is still not an African God.

buygala:
What about Allah?




Abi Allah na Australian indigene?



I know some peeps are gonna come here and bring Jesus into this discussion


For una information, Jesus isn't an African god per se.... it's just that Africans have chosen to cry more than the bereaved by adopting a Western deity

Allah means God in Arabic and it can refer to any god depending on who is saying it.

Some people are just destined to be poor. Later, he will start blaming the innocent people in the village for his misfortunes.

I think I have to start looking at watching hyped seasonal movies. For a lot of people to be talking about devious maids, there has to be something there.

Kai, this estate for sweet oo

chymystique:
I agree with punch on their write up cause thats the truth! Even if you dont want to admit it Mr OP.

Ofcourse, it's the truth that most of his appointments are from the north but what we can't ascertain for sure is if it is part of a northern agenda that has always been alluded to him by his non-supporters. If behooves on us to give him the benefit of the doubt.

The power of the media cannot be over emphasized. Most Nigerians based their opinions on what they get from the media whether true or not. It therefore seems to me that Buhari is playing into the hands of his detractors by acting the script that they have prepared. I couldn't be happier if i as a detractor. Before the elections, he was seen an as a religious and ethnic jingoists or the father of boko haram. He should try as much as possible to prove these people wrong now that he has mounted the saddle. The reverse seems to be the case especially as it relates to his appointments so far. Despite the fact that he is not done with appointments, i don't think the media has the patience because they live on sensations and what better way to sell news if you give people what they want. The transfer of some boko haram prisoners to Anambra is another grave move. Whether or not he was the person that initiated it does not mean he shouldn't kill that thought. He should thread careful and be wary of the kind of advisers he listens to lest he not go the way of GEJ.

pazienza:
The importance of the unity of all Igbo speaking groups can never be over emphasized. Politics is about numbers, Nigeria is entering a very crucial stage of its existence that Ndiigbo cannot afford to present a divided front.


Ndiigbo success during the early days of Nigeria was built on strong unity of all Igbo speaking people, if we hope to reach such lofty heights again, within Nigeria or in an Igbo country, it's a must that we find a way to unite all Igbo speaking people, there is a reason while our enemies balkanized us after the war.

Igbo unity will benefit both SS and SE.

I understand your concern but is it not better you work with a group of people who you are very sure are unwaveringly committed to the Igbo course than to force those who have not really shown any resolve whatsoever to be identified with the course. I'm of the Opinion that whatever we do as Igbo people should be limited to the South East, atleast for now. It will be very difficult to include Igbo speaking parts outside the SE because of other interests that exist in those places. These things are dragging us back. I'm also not comfortable with the way Igbos on this forum throw "SS and SE" into every discussion. Let's save our heard first before thinking of a people that care very less of you.

ikechu1278:
He said anioma people organized, he didn't say a specific community he said the entire anioma organized whatever bullsh1t he conducted in his head. Therefore, that's how I know what he wrote is pure lies. My parents still reside in Asaba till this day. My father attends every anioma anything no matter where it's being held. Even if the meeting is in warri, outside delta or even a remote village he attends each and every anioma meeting. In fact, when he came to visit me, he went out and found the anioma diaspora groups in my city and started their meeting. The fact my father didn't attend the so called "anioma meeting" he spoke of says a lot. It once again proved his wireless lie as something he pulled from his yansh. Likewise, their would have been an altercation in that meeting that would have made the news. Any denier would tell you one place you avoid with that denier bs is Asaba. Capital or no capital, that's something we don't tolerate whatsoever. Next time he wants to conduct a bs lies he dragged from his yansh, let him make it believable by using ika.



And you are telling me what I know because? The same way they have ika and ukwuani's that are proud igbos. Fredo, chyz and some other older nl member are from there but no, what you people like focusing on is the deniers. Even their own kings of each community within that axis have came out and spoke on the subject, one even wrote a damn book on the subject, in my old account, I even posted quotes directly from the kings but once again Una disregard all those and focus on the deniers. For awhile I used to wonder why Una do shit like that and since my staying on NL, I found out you people want desperately to find a reason to continue creating the wedge hence I've lost count how many Una have a "friend, neighbor, classmate, blah blah" that's anioma that hates SE Igbo. The problem is not us, the problem is Una.



Who ever denied their are Igbo deniers in Aniomaland. They exist and we accept but We told una their population is in the minority. Igbo deniers are literally the biggest attention seekers in the world, any full blooded anioma that lived in any part aniomaland would tell you that hence most of us ignore them but Una refuse to heed our words because you people just want to believe that are the majority. I honestly stopped giving a fuvk just like every other anioma on this forum that have kept telling Una this same fact for Goddamn how many years now. Who honestly cares anymore.

Beyond the insults, i see this guy's point and it is in consonance with what i've been saying all along. There are pro Igbo people of Anioma heritage likewise deniers and we can't force this people to believe otherwise. That's why we should focus on those that are proud Igbos and stop beating this issue year in year out. The thing sef don tire me. With the way some of us go about this Anioma issue, it will look as if we're in it for something other than what it is.

chocolateme:
Adam we are not fighting naa, this is a neighbor not an outsider, compound issue is always different.. the guys he lives with are not touts but peaceful though wen it comes to something like this, I don't know what their reaction will be though if u see them having issues like this with people, u won't vouch for them. That's y I don't know what to do

SO, only outsiders deserve to be arrested, even when they are guilty of a crime? Anybody that can steal is also capable of killing. You're putting yourself in danger without knowing it.

delishpot:
See, it seems he cant say for sure its the guy. Cos reading his post it seems even he was confused as to what and who he saw. And he did not act as soon as he saw the guy due to that fact.

Then she should call the police and tell them her suspision and allow them do teir job. Infact, if one notices a break in, it is commonsense to call the police.

This is one of the reasons why Niegria is in a state of comatose all thanks to Nigerians. You saw someon trying to steal from you and you're asking us if you should call the police. No, call a pastor.

crazydove:
Abeg which cab/taxi is N50 in Nigeria.in Lagos is 3000naira and above.in abuja is 200naira.is keke that is 50naira even bus is 100naira.
In abuja,Lagos,Warri,PH,Bayelsa,Uyo,Enugu etc you won't see house of N4000. And prices varies in every state.Go and do a good research.

I think the OP is referring to taxis that pick several passengers at the same time and he compared it with the one that picks a single person in the states.

I also never knew people still buy a full meal for 100 naira.

My only response is that if the Niger Delta is bombed by boko haram, Nigeria will shut down economically. The oil industry funds every other industry whether directly or indirectly.

@spyder
Biko, which part of Awkunanaw is this?

HopeAtHand:
What does the rejection across Igboid groups in Delta and Rivers tell you...It simply says something is wrong with being Igbo.

Tell your people to work on themselves.

Are you implying that the rejection is as a result of something being wrong with the Igbo tag or simply because you have never been Igbo. You seem to be exposing yourself without knowing it.

omololu2020:
we hav yorubas in anioma

So, there Yorubas but no Igbos. Oya, clap for yourself.

omololu2020:
y do ibos from d south east do carry aniomas and ikwerre are ibos issue on dia head?

I guess it's because they see them as brothers. Why do you carry this kid of question on your head. What's your link to Anioma?

pazienza:
The Aniomas can't re write history as they please. If Anioma stops being Igbo, then alot has to change in Nigerian history.

For a start, the removal of Anioma from the Igbo nation will mean that Nzeogwu coup must cease answering Igbo coup, and become named "Anioma coup" , this will change a lot of things about how the civil war pre events are perceived by non Igbos.

Are Aniomas ready to bear the blunt and consequences an " Anioma coup" tag comes along with?

If this happens, it won't change zilch. The rest of Nigeria already have their minds made up. To them the coup was an Igbo coup and nothing more. You will have a hard time explaining to them that Chukwuma Nzeogwu is not an Igbo name.

hurricaneChris:
It's very annoying. But I understand that most times, those who actually say such gibberish like "I am Anioma, I aint igbo" are not actually from delta state, let alone Anioma!

Anyway, everyone has the right to determine who he is.
I think the OP has chosen not to be igbo, but true people from Anioma won't say same.

The faster we started accepting the reality, the better. You will meet a lot of Anioma people that will tell you that they are not Igbo. It's nothing new.

phyllosilicate:
Thanks for your submission, Anioma is not a language. But the whole issue is confusing to me. I grew up in Benin and I was able to interact with many people from Anioma. Two of my neighbours were from Agbor they don't call themselves igbos, same with my mum friend from ukuale. Also I have met people from Anioma who call themselves igbo. There was a guy that I thought was from south east for many years, only recently he told me he is from Anioma. Why is it so? I am just asking to learn.

The confusion starts from the lumping of the whole of Igboid Delta state as Anioma. Youre more likely to see someone from the Ika and Ukwuani axis deny being Igbo than say the Aniocha axis. For instance, the OP is most likely from Ika or Ukwuani. They are the ones who carry the whole Anioma not Igbo on their head.

BuddahMonk:
If Anioma State is created.

It will be more viable than 9 states in the North, 2 in South West and 1 in South East.

What is stopping the Anioma movement.

They have one city and two large towns.

Asaba

Agbor

Kwale

They have the largest land area for industrial estate at Ogwashi Uku.

They have one of the largest gas deposits in Nigeria at Osisa and crude Oil at Okpai, Aboh, Kwale, et al.

They have the longest stretch of inland coast off the River Niger streching from Asaba, to Okoh, to Uchi, to Aboh.

They have airport and industrial layouts.

They have one of the most thrivIng tourism sector in Nigeria situated in Asaba.

They have one of the highest concentration of human resources in Nigeria.

They have produced the greatest football stars in Nigeria more than entire Northern Nigeria combine.

They have many institutions of higher learning and numerous secondary schools.

Most importantly, Aniomaland is 100% fertile and arable, flat and with rush vegetation.

From Kwale to Asaba is 55mins while from Agbor to Asaba is 42 mins all by roads.
Anioma State .....united we stand

Take a look at the writeup and not even once did Igbo appear there even in an attempt at the usual disclaimer but Awolowo appeared on a thread about Anioma. I have observed a lot at the behavior of a lot of Anioma people, so it surprised me why we should keep carrying their matter on our should. Every man should answer his papa name from now on. I used to be passionate about a unified Igboland that includes Anioma but I don't care anymore.

Is this America's Puerto Rico? I can't believe this. BTW, isn't Puerto Rico supposed to be an island somewhere in the Pacific?

Carmellio Anthony and that short guy, Iverson.

Gboliwe:
Like Fani Kayode, like Joe Igbokwe! Birds of same feather.

Atulu muru ebulu gba aka nwa quite unfortunate for these two above 40 fools.

Exactly. I learned the through meaning of uncouth the last time I watched Jpe Igbokwe on TV. Never in my life have I seen a Nigerian politician so vulgar like a motor park tout. No form of decorum wuatsover. He was just spewing stupidity all through. That's not to say that all he has said about FFK is not true. I woildnt rule out a mental case on the part of FFK. The way that guy changes tune will give Lionel Richie a run for his money. So shameless.

badinfluence:
And what are these 'local contents'? Witchcraft, wicked in laws, marriage disagreement e.t.c

As much as we want our movie people to leave the redundant storylines in our movies, the average Nigerians should be able to relate with our movies. That is what I don't just see in those new Nollywood movies. It's called a Nigerian movie for a reason. So, importing s me plastic actors who are competing on who speaks better English with a foreign accent does not cut it.
