PoliticsRe: Inside Benue’s Unending Militia War by Armaggedon: 9:10am On Jun 02, 2024
jaxin119:
Tiv always channel their energy to the wrong course. Salvaging yourself from fulani terrorists should be your number one priority followed by retaining your place as the food basket of the nation.

As for the Idoma people of Benue state, just know that you will never gain anything meaningful from Benue state. Given that Igbos have always stood by you/Idomas, the best bet for you/Idomas is to merger with the indigenous igbos of Benue extractions and become the sixth state of the South East since the present South East is slightly smaller in land mass.
There is no such state creation movement seeking an Idoma state in the south east. If they truly want it, I expect frequent press conference to that effect like the Anioma people used to do. Moreover, "Ohimini state" might appeal more to Igbos than Apa state.

Not just about state creation, political atmosphere in the country is getting fluid and we could witness drastic changes that could lead to seperation. Anyone left out of the Noah's ark will be lost forever.

Seems it didn't affect students writing waec.

Southeast governors should not put their trust on federal government. They should contribute money and start taking out people like Simon Ekpa, Emma Powerless and any other idiot that raises his head to declare such order.
why don't you come and do it for them?

jmoore:
Stop asking stupid question. Am I a governor?
Then you keep quiet and allow the governors sit at home in peace. If you dedicate to Nigeria half the way Biafrans love Biafra, Nigeria wouldn't have been one of the worst countries in the world.

Commendable but I don't think people should be forced to obey. But why would you as an igbo person who understands what the Igbo nation went through in the civil war, why won't you observe a day to mourn loved ones who died in a struggle for freedom?

FoodRe: Man Counters Those Who Say "Yoruba No Get Soup" (VIDEO) by Armaggedon:
Appletek:
Your diet consists of dried stockfish and yellow garri with akpu. You too are opening mouth. Do you even know how stockfish entered your pot?

All of them were introduced during the civil war when Biafrans ran out of frogs and lizards to eat.

Okrika was dropped at Okrika beach. It was dropped for free to Biafrans but unfortunately, Biafrans picked them and sold them to Biafrans.

Okporoko was sent as aid from Norway. It was the head being dried and sent to your fathers instead of being thrown away. Biafran soldiers were sleeping with married Biafran women so the women could take stockfish back to their families.

palm oil was introduced into garri as an urgent aid to cure keashiokor ravaging Biafrans caused by lack of Vitamin A, and tocopherol and tocotrienol antioxidants.

There is no history of Okporoko, Okrika and stockfish in Igboland before the Biafran war.
All this garbage because your fellow Yoruba admitted to your lack of native cuisines. Even his defence is a further proof to your lack of native soups. Okro and black soups he mentioned are native to Igbos and Edos respectively.

You mean an examination conducted across West Africa stipulated for the same date should be moved because of a self defeating ideology.

You do understand that those 300,000 student represent less than 10% of the students who are scheduled to sit that exam on that date.
go and learn more about WAEC and how it's structured.

That you borrow some words from the Igbo language doesn't make the two ethnic groups related. Give up the obsession already.

It is nobody's business if an examination body chooses to play politics with education. Southeast governor should simply ask them to move the exams. Even NYSC camping that is done by the military has a shorter period in the East. It is the right of candidates to take the exams under an atmosphere of security.

PoliticsRe: Why Ife Is Not Yoruba Land, It Belongs To The Igbos - Ooni And Prof Ade Obayemi by Armaggedon: 10:03pm On May 27, 2024
seunmsg:
Nobody turned anything upside down. It is folks like you that are actually trying to create confusion where none exist. Ile Ife is the centre of creation and the source of humanity. All tribes and ethnicities migrated from the source where life started - Ile Ife.

Your Nri kings migrated from Ife. The Obi of Onitsha migrated from Ado (Edo) to Onitsha. However, it’s also in Onitsha history that they originally migrated from Ile Ife to Ado (Edo) before migrating to Onitsha. There is no controversy about this.
This one is already shaking out of insecurity. Pls what does "original inhabitants" mean?
The Igbo were the original inhabitants of Ife and had installed, and practiced a culture based on their ancient Odinala religion of peace, of the divine rights of the individual and not of kings, of the protection and validation of the weak and infirm, of an artistic and creative value rather than of war and destruction. All these values are embodied in the myth of Obatala the sculptor and creative “demiurge” of current Yoruba mythology.
You can continue with your feel-good fairy tale of the universe starting in Ile ife. We all talk ourselves into comfort but it can't be substituted with carefully research, as the professor has done.
