sir, it baffles me how some people reason, honstly if i type all my experience with this woman you will think it is fiction. A woman that when i lost my job and there was no money for diapers her sister advised her to steal my phonr and go sell it. Thank God i found it under the bed. I saw the chat with her sister on that.

Investigative:
This Ikwere confusion was a cunning construct of the British tondilute and water down Igbo strength and control after they suffered harshly in the hands of Jaja of Opobo.

Before then, the entire South Sourh was 60-70 % Igbo all the way to Bonny. Bonny has a string Indigenous Igbo people. Even Ijaw and Bayelsa. All of Port Harcourt, etc.

Now what is divide and rule?

Divide and rule is a cunning way of making inciting hatred among blood brothers so as to cause infighting and suspicion and thereby weaken them

If you do not know...the entire Igbo land..from Nsukka I to Kogi..from Ebonyi into Calabar..Ikom, Akamkpa, Bonny, Omoku, PH, Kalabari, are largely Igbos who had different migratory routes. Just as you have the Obigbo region mainly guys from Imo River areas, etc.

The Brits smartly would lie to everyone that Igbos are domineering and all what not, to make them hate each other and fight themselves.

Also the psychological effect of slavery and civil war.

When you're being killed bevmcause of your name..you have to change it to survive.

It happened in the Mid West where the Igbemudia, and others who are Igbos of Ika ancestry suddenly said they're not Igbos. Even Ukwuani,l who are clearly Igbos, Some parts of Benin, and Agbor..umunnede who's Igbo origins are even stringer than those in Enugu would all wake up and deny their identity.

Remember in those days there were no boundaries as such. Groups of persons can wake up and travel to a foreign empty land and begin to farm and fish. Al these confusion was created by the Brits to dilute the strength of a United Igbo nation.

Records would shock you to discover that Igbos are the largest number of ethnic Africans in the entire world. We're everywhere. Even in Panya. Guinea. Almost ubiquitous. The ones suffering from shame and identity is just transient cos once the rise of Igbo happens again, they'd all come rushing back to claim their place as sons of the soil.

Don't worry yourself so much about their amnesia. They know who they are. They know they're Igbos.

So let me get something straight. Are you looking for a woman that'll be afraid of you or you need a woman that'll love, honour, respect and be loyal to you, which one?

Wetin dis one dey talk... I go even tell my wife to dish my in law food first and later take him to pepper soup joint for normal normal........

SayAsSeen:
Hello friends, I'd like to ask intelligent and older minds for advise about an issue before I react.

My wife's elder brother is visiting my house and my wife has been serving his food first before serving and bringing my good, in my own house.


Please I just want to ask if this is wrong or right or even just normal?

I worked all through the night and was famished by the time the day broke this morning. I gave her some dough and told her to prepare me noodles and sardine, emphasizing on the fact that I was very hungry.

NOTE: Her Brother was still asleep at this time.

She prepared the meal, split it into two. Woke up and served her brother first in my guest room before coming to my room to give her hungry husband his food.

I was so mad, I ignored the food, went out to smoke a cigarette. While I was doing that it occured to me ask for advice here, because I didn't want to ask anybody I knew personally.

I still don't know whether to be mad, or to just ignore it.

I am a strong believer of common sense and respect and her actions this morning lack both! It would have take her less than 30 seconds to give me my food then go wake and serve her brother!

Is she told me she needed money for something and I put my younger sister's need over her's-no matter how tribal her's might be-i know how she'd react and the amount of making up I'd have to do.

I am trying to be very mature about this, that's why I keeping things anonymous?

Besides I'd like to know, I possibly can't be the only person who has experienced this sort of situation because they say there's nothing new under the sun. Please who has ever felt this way, I am very understanding and if something irks me, it would irk every body else too.


Wish I could explain better

elantraceey:
What happened to going to the kitchen to get your own food?

9Pluto:
Should we be bringing information from the last expedition from Alagoa? At least that one favours you unlike the information from the first expedition.

Ekealterego:
I have dropped that reference, I have referenced him more than 100 times... I even uploaded the front cover and posted the links where I generated free access.
Again, like our ancestors over you, I will do my thing on my own terms. You do not tell me what to do.
Clarke wrote only one language collection on African languages except for Fernando Po.

Ekealterego:
Stop switching accounts up and down. When you mentioned Clarke, I thought you actually knew what you were saying.

So, you were just name-dropping?

Ekealterego:
My question, is, where was Ijaw mentioned in all of these? I cannot still find Ijo.


Mind you, the subsequent ones are not admissible here. You know we have igno historians who also wrote about Bonny even as early as history but deliberately omitted them so we won't be as if we are biased.

Follow the rules and criteria we all agreed to use.

Malawian:
Oga Bleep off with your attached by force "Nembe-Ijaw.

Nembe is a dialect of Igbo and has nothing in common with Ijaw Jos-men.

When Nembe was already a city state,Ijaw were still teeth filing cannibalistic boat pirates and all these were recorded for posterity.

Nembe Aborigines still exist today and they deal a dialect of the Igbo as they have always spoken more than 400 years ago.

All these were recorded and all these still obtains till today!

No dey ginger yourself over the pipeline contract Fulani and Britain give una for another man land. When jungle mature, una must enter that boat again.

After all, una too like wota.

Malawian:
You are still acting like a pirate (Just like your forefathers), hijacking Nembe's history as that of Jos-men.

Oga, that obfuscation does not work on Igbos.

There is Nembe / Brass / etc Aborigenes (of the first part)


and


There is Jo-men / Jos-men teeth-filing boat Pirates (of the other part)

These boat pirate have now infiltrated like viruses the ones of (the first part) and are now claiming the history of the ones of (the first part).

We sabi that game, and we have called you out on it, but you still persist with it.

Nembe is Nembe ----- NOT IJAW / JOS-MEN etc

Brass is Brass ------- NOT IJAW / JOS-MEN etc

Ekealterego:
One thing you will take from all these. Igbos are always and will always be more intelligent than you. Know this and know peace. If Aro is no longer Ibo, what of king Obie?

9Pluto:
According to a fraudulent ijaw historian, but historical records shows otherwise.
No historical record mentioned Bonny and Ijaw in the same sentence. As a matter of fact ijaws are later migrants who in their typical treachery want to displace the aborigins they met on ground.

Ekealterego:
When we say you people have low IQs now.... una go say we insult you.

what of the king of Aro?

What of Prince Tschukuma who was even drawn by Baikie? .
What of King Obie who was extensively talked about by Schön, Baikie, Laird and Oldfield?
All Igbo towns didn't have uniform system of rulership. Some ran a democratic system while some had a monarchical system.

However, the ijaws are a different case.
Here, how did IJaws that didn't have a king, "In all their district" now developed a king in Bonny?

Ekealterego:
What is caught here. I remember this 100%. I called it to your attention first that we have had the argument.

If you see clearly, I mentioned that if we interpreted it in that sense... that is what it could mean.

On the other hand, I believe Okoloma, means Fine young man.


I remember you told us Okoloma is, "Okolo ama". That was what we were arguing about.

Your theory is also not correct.

Stop derailing the thread. Open another thread to discuss this issue.

Ekealterego:
Okay, I will help you. Now that you accepted that they are Igbo.

Curlew means Fly away/Run away.

Curlew is an old French word which means fly messenger.

Okoloma in this sense, will mean "fine bird fly away". which is a mixture of Igbo and the French derivative of Curlew.

Now, tell me where Ijaw is written in all these things?

we have mentioned Igbos and connected them to Bonny. Give us Ijaw let's see.
Give us one single evidence.

Ekealterego:
Which stupid Curlew. So, Igbo also gave you a language too?.

OKOLOMA (means male/men) Oma - means handsome/good/strong in this context. Okoloma is still in Ndoki, igboland till today Oga

OKOLObia (is young strong/fine/handsome man)

Igbos were Ijaw people kings and Ijaws were pirates

Anonymous15:
See confusion."curlew means flyaway/runaway" and someone actually liked that stupidity.

So all this while we have been begging you people to translate "curlew fly away"
And have been refusing since page 11 till 12 because you were craftly inventing a lie, but you came up with that poo up there.
"Curlew means flyaway/runaway"
This fool must think we are children here..
"Okoloma in this sense means fine bird fly away"

But I thought you people say OKOLOMA to mean young handsome man
