Dede Andre, how far are your Isinweke people from Ngwa?

It is only one community in Etiti that is from Ngwa. They migrated to their present location from Ngwa about 1750. They are called Umungwa, politically, they are in Obowu Local govt area, Etiti.
The guy who organised the Ikenga awards that took place in Owerri last year is from this community.

There is a clamour for the renaming of Ihitte Uboma  LGA to Etiti.

Most Chelsea fans dont know whom to support Mourinho or Chelsea.

Dont be surprised to see Drogba celebrating with Mourinho if Inter should win. Or Terry crying should Inter lose.

They cant just be professionals. Thats what you get when a club has no history and Mourinho is the best thing that happened to them since Hands free wan.king  

D.KANU: When Chelsea played FC Porto, Porto fans cheered Deco and other former Porto players at Chelsea.
Kanu mu brother, that is how it should be.

Biko nu, UmuIgbo nile nyenu di otu egwu bolu CHELSEA nkwado (support) ka ha merie na ubochi taa.

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=413844.msg5699865#msg5699865 date=1268688626]Your topic is misleading though.
There's nowhere in the article that stated this man is a full-blooded Nigerian.[/quote]Nigerian or not, what matters here is the incest committed by the said man. I think it will be wise for you to direct your insults to the culprit rather than insulting innocent posters here.

Thou shall not insult.

End of the road for a suspected randy cleric
By Jude IsiguzoPublished TodayNewsRating: Unrated
RESIDENTS of Ilupeju, Lagos Mainland, have called on the Police to begin the investigation of an Islamic cleric and two others, who were alleged to have abducted and defiled a 16-year old girl.

The cleric and the two accused person were paraded last weekend by the Police.

The suspects, Alfa Oka, the Muazim (who calls Muslim faithful to prayer) of Jamatul Islamiyat Central Mosque, Ilupeju area of Lagos; Alfa Samsudeen Molade, a worker in the same mosque and Kazeem Olayanju, were arrested by policemen from the Ilupeju Police Station over the disappearance of Tawa Olori last Sunday.

The two clerics are working and living in the same house with the victim’s guardian, who is the owner of the mosque.

Olori’s guardian, Alhaja Bolanle Balogun, said she discovered on Sunday that the teenage girl was missing and she went to her school the following day, for his but couldn’t find her.

The Muazim was alleged to have been sexually harassing Olori in the last two years.

Besides, residents told The Nation that the suspect is notorious for his ‘randy’ act, and wondered why a man who leads Muslims to prayer would be living such a devilish life.

They alleged that Alfa Oka had for a very long time been sleeping around with little girls in the neighbourhood, and that each time he was arrested he escaped.

They (residents) pleaded with the police to launch an investigation into the matter and ensure that the Alfa is brought to book.

However, a source at the school told Alhaja Balogun that there was a certain man that comes to the school to look for her ward, and the description fits Alfa Oka.

The source disclosed that the man was fond of the girl, and that he threw a big party to mark her last birthday in school.

Following this revelation, Alhaja Balogun reported Oka to the police and he was arrested.

It was gathered that upon his arrest, he made a confessional statement, alleging that Alfa Molade connived with him to take the girl to his friend’s (Olayanju) house somewhere in Akute, Ogun State.

Although he confessed to have been dating Olori in the last two years, he claimed that he had never had sex with her.

Oka confessed that the only thing he did to the girl was to handle breast and finger her private part at a dark corner somewhere around Sura Mogaji Street, also in Ilupeju.

"Everybody knows that the girl in question is my girlfriend. She said she wanted to go back to live with her parents because she was no longer comfortable staying with her foster parents. I persuaded her to stay back, but she refused and that was how I decided to take her to my friend’s place", Oka said.

According to him, the last time he saw the victim was on Tuesday at his friend’s place. He said he no longer knew her whereabouts.

He explained that the missing girl told him that she wanted to see her father and that was the last time he heard from her.

But Olayanju denied knowing the whereabouts of the missing girl.

He said that on Tuesday morning, he called Oka and told him that he was taking the girl to a police station since he couldnt continue to keep her in his place.

Olayanju noted that when they got to the gate of the police station, the girl said there was no need reporting there. She said that she would rather go back to his house to pick her things and go home to her parents.

"I gave her N200 to take her back, but when I got home, I discovered that she stole N3,000 from where I kept money and I have not seen her since then", he said.

Police spokesman Frank Mba, a Superintendent of Police, advised Nigerians who may know the missing girl’s whereabouts to volunteer information.

He said investigation was still ongoing and that the suspects would soon face the law.

Pls stop displaying ignorance here. i'm an Ikwerre man from Port-hacourt and by extension i'm Igbo. pls speak for your village.

@Cheaphost. God bless you. Some people in Rivers state do not feel happy seeing the Ikwerre uniting with their Igbo kins.
My wife is Ikwerre, she and her Ikwerre family are fond of their Igboness.
I use this medium to say happy mothers day to all Ikwerre and entire Igbo women.

I will avenge my 7 children — Woman who lost all
From JAMES OJO and AARON OSSAI, Abuja
Sunday, March 14

Their stories are like lines from a horror movie. They bring tears to eyes, leave your heart bleeding. They are tales of sorrow by the widows of the last sectarian killings, tales of how their children and husbands were butchered in their in Dogo Nahawa, a village near Jos. With pain dripping from the dirge they sang, the bereaved women virtually brought the National Assembly to its knees as people shed uncontrollable tears. The gate of the complex had been flung open to hundreds of women protesting last week’s genocide in the Plateau state capital.

The atmosphere in front of the National Assembly building popularly known as White House was somber, as the shrill voices of women clad in black, with green leaves on their heads pierced through the early morning weather with melodious but sorrowful songs.

They were the voices of the women from Plateau State who had come to National Assembly to protest the dawn massacre on March 7 of women and children in Dogo Nahawa a remote area in Jos South Local Government Area of Plateau State.
As they sang, displaying gory pictures of slaughtered women and children, tears flowed freely from eyes of both the protesters, the on- lookers and even female security agents sent to ensure orderliness of the protest. Journalists were not left out. They forgot for a while their midgets and notepads.

Like a sore thumb in the midst of the women numbering over 600 stood this woman of about five feet tall who was dressed in green and black instead of the complete back that others wore.
She just stood there neither crying nor singing, but sweating heavily when Sunday Sun approached her to know why she was not dressed in full black like others and why she was not singing too.
She muttered in a low voice that her name was Priscilla Sunday and counted seven of her fingers. One of the women apparently watching over her whispered that Priscilla lost seven children in addition to other relations in the massacre.

Spurred to share her experience in the pogrom, the 35-year-old Priscilla said that it was in her presence that some of her children were slaughtered by the rampaging Fulani herdsmen, who invaded her home in the early morning of the black Sunday. By the time the herdsmen retreated to their evil holes and the dust cleared, she lamented that seven of her children had been wasted.

“ I cannot describe what I saw with my eyes. My children’s heads were cut open with cutlass, their brains spilled on the ground and arrows cutting through their bodies. Why, what have we done?” She asked and burst into tears.
To her, the security agents in Plateau State had failed the people they were sent to protect.  She was so bitter about it that she suggested that all soldiers, all policemen should leave Plateau because according to her, their presence had not done the people of the state any good.

She also suggested that since the security agents could no longer guarantee their safety, they should leave and allow the warring factions to confront each other in a fight, which according to her, would determine who remains in Jos.  “Let us fight so that which ever side wins would remain in Jos. I want to avenge the death of my children”, she declared.

Narrating how the villagers were caught napping by the invaders, she said, “We were sleeping when suddenly we were woken up by sounds of gun shots and people shouting. We did not even know where they came from. These men trooped into our houses and started attacking us with dangerous weapons like guns, cutlasses and clubs.
“It was unfortunate that the children could not run as fast as the elders.  Even toddlers were not spared. What is all this about?  I watched them kill my seven children and others within the compound and there was nothing I or any other person could do.“ As these things were happening, no security agent was in sight.  Neither policemen nor soldiers came to our rescue. 

We are asking government for adequate security so that we can live peacefully in Plateau.  However, if they can no longer guarantee our safety, security agents should give way and allow us to fight so that who ever wins should stay in Jos.  If they defeat us, let them remain in Jos and if we defeat them, they should be prepared to also leave Jos.
“ As it is now, we do not see any reason why any security agent should remain in Jos.  If they cannot assist us, they should leave.  We are not going to fight them with dangerous weapons like gun, cutlasses, clubs or charms. God that we serve will definitely fight for us.

“We know that God is seeing all that we are doing.  If they say they do not want us in Jos, where do they want us to go? I know that if we engage them in an open fight, our God will give us victory over them,” she stated.
Another Victim, Mrs. Debora Lanbe Danjuma, 27, recounted her experience thus:
“I am a mother of a four-year-old who was hacked to death in my presence for reasons I don’t know. As you can see, I am seven-months pregnant. 

On that fateful Sunday, we were on our way to the Church with my son and my late husband. We were in front of our house and I remember I forgot my handset and my husband went back inside to bring it. Suddenly we heard our neighbour shout. We saw a young man running towards us with wound shouting Madam, Madam run they are coming.   I could not move fast with the pregnancy and drag the boy along. I was trying to run when one of them just came and collected the boy from me. Before I knew what was happening, before my own eyes I watched them slaughter my son.

“As my husband was coming out to join us, somebody just shot him in the head and spilled his blood and brain on me. This is how I became a widow.” she managed to narrate before tears started to roll out from her cheeks.
On how she managed to escape from the marauders, she said she would be lying if she said she knew how she escaped.
“Only God can explain how I escaped. God can explain how I was not killed. The truth is that I don’t know how I managed to escape, if I tell you how I escaped, I would be lying,” Deborah confessed.
Mrs. Lare Onu, who led the widows to the National Assembly captured the mood of the women and other victims of the last violence in Jos in her speech to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Dimeji Bankole, after he personally came out to welcome and identify with the mourners.

“We are here this morning because of what is happening in Plateau state.  Innocent villagers were killed with children that were one month and two months old.  They were all slaughtered like animals.  Some of these villagers do not even know where Jos is. So why are you killing them?  They went to the remotest area of Jos to kill people.
“The question is what were the security men doing.  The soldiers were there, they were called and they did not come.  This thing started around 10’o clock and they did not come until 5 in the morning.  The Federal Government, the state government and the elders in Plateau have not told the truth about what is happening in Jos.
“We are talking about indigenes or no indigenes here, let us leave religion out of it.  Are there not Yorubas and Igbos in Plateau, why are they not fighting, why is it only the Hausa people that are fighting?

“What we know is that there are people behind these things and they are not telling us the truth.  The problem is that when our people want to retaliate, they will say stop.  We are saying enough, enough and enough of these things”.
The full message of Bankole was delivered by the House Leader, Tunde Akogun, who assured them that government will surely put an end to incessant killings in Jos or anywhere in the country.

Hon Bitrus Kase representing Jos South federal constituency in the House admonished the wounded women not to contemplate a reprisal, but allow God to fight for them. He urged them to fast and pray for God to rise on their behalf.

Nope it's not! Sorry!!! PH is built with oil money and Oil is not in Port Harcourt. Where the oil used to build PH is, is not in Igbo land. Why are some of you Igbos obsessed with claiming what doesn't belong to you? PH is a land with many tribes not just Ikweres who Igbos love to claim are Igbos but Ikwere man will tell you he's not Igbo and he's proud of his tribe.

My wife is Ikwerre and a proud Igbo.
