Since they have shame this one on his thread he created on igbo kingdom, e never remain d same to extent of beating his dry chest arguing with a woman.

Igbo didn't practice democracy, they lack organisational skills to practice that.

@ The bolded is part of democracy. You argue with anybody irrespective of their gender. Freedom of speech is not restricted to a particular gender and Igbo democracy allows the fluidity.
Well, it's not like I expect you to understand, after all you are from the Yoruba group where primitive monarchy and MISOGYNY reigns supreme. WOMEN are relegated to semi humans, their decisions, freedom of speech and ideas irrelevant
Your opinion about arguing with a "woman" is the misogyny in your culture that is inbuilt in your DNA

Mr Asari Tokumbo. We know the trick.
"Praise them to get into their heart, to the point they speak about you then destroy them. By that time they can't fight back or else they will sound as hypocrites"

Ndigbo are wiser

Challenge the fulani and face the law. As simple as that

This is why Igbo democracy is the best. No monarch represents the interest of the Igbo man.
Noe the fate of the entire Yoruba Nation lies in hands of about 100 old men they call monarchs.
I pity una sha. People with Kingdoms

[quote author= post=99964979]Bridges under Obiano.

Let us do the comparison sector by sector[/quote]Does this mean you agree.
If yes. Specify the particular picture to merge.

I noticed that most of their achievements have like two in particular sector so the other party should reply with his best picture to counter the other.
You Mr Arewa1stson will bring up the first two and he will propose the next and so on till we get to the tenth.
Agree?

Ehm Mr , you and the other guy can have a healthy free and fair comparison by
1) You list a particular sector and post picture (just the best 1) then he comment with his own best.
2) Do ten of it in different sector and he comment with his own picture
3) I volunteer myself to compile (merge) each of the pictures according to sector and allow people vote.
4) Those that believe Obiano did better in a particular situation sector will like while those that believe Umahi did better will share for each of the merged pictures representing the sectors.
5) After it I will announce the winner, which will be visible to everyone anyways

Lets do this the Igbo democratic way. We are not like the Savages in Nigeria that settle minor misunderstanding like this with more insults and baseless arguments.
We are Ndigbo please

Reply with "I agree, Rep Obiano" if you want to do this and the person representing Umahi should also reply with "I agree, Rep Umahi"
And please other commenters. Only pictures of the rep will be merged, although chance would be given to update or modify the picture by the reps. Only.
PS : This is strictly Obiano and Umahi affair, it doesn't correlate to the development in both states. Just the achievement of both governors
Lets behave like the Ndigbo we are and settle this Obiano and Umahi issue once and for all

okigbojihad:
bros that guy is ibibio he hate's anytin that has to do wit Igbos.i have been following him for a while now..u can go through his comment to comfirm it...

he is well known here...

That is how they play you people.
He is Yoruba. They just claim an ethnicity in SS to mess with some people's mind.
Just ignore him.
He is overwhelmed by Igbo accomplishments he saw here.
It is normal to hate those that are better than you

9jakool:
1. Did I say Yorubas traded with Igbos? or did I say they traded with Ijaws, which through them is how you acquire the Ijebu fabric?

2. Who are they? Who are they that claim that it's as old as Igbo nation? Experts in Igbo history? I gave you a non bias perspective from an academic institution and you gave me a bias news story written by two of your fellow kinsmen who are indeed journalists and were sharing their opinions. Also, they never denigrated other tribes in their article and were very respectful in speaking of the textile tradition of other tribes unlike you.

LOL.
My dear it is normal to try to attach yourself to progress and great accomplishments but the way you are doing it is ridiculous.
How come it is only your site that have such ridiculous narration?
How old is Ijaw that you claimed bought from you and "gave" to Ndigbo?
Do you know what Ijaw spent almost all of their life in mid ages doing as a result of Igbo expansion?

Akwete is an Igbo exclusive thing. You Yorubas were butt ass naked before the Fulani discovered you people. Stop trying to change history.
You even got your name Yoruba from the Fulani

Ok. Fine this link below is from a Kenyan.
Give me your excuses

He is a Yoruba man.
Try to modify that your comment. He doesn't worth it

asha80:
I thought as much because on twitter it is something else

You can't tell shit from a faceless forum like this. In reality (at the moment) APGA is not even considered as one of the major contestants of 2021.
The election seems to be between YPP and PDP (ifeanyi Ubah and Dr Godwin Maduka)

9jakool:
This is clearly a boldface lie and you are very shameless.

You can big up your tribe without distorting the truth or denigrating other. Your insecurities are glaring.

1. It's laughable to suggest that Yorubas were 'basically naked' until 18th century after trading with the Fulanis and Europeans, when some of the easiest sculptures from Ife dating back a thousand years clearly show people wearing clothes. Even claiming the Hausas got their clothes from the Arabs is a misconception, because the tagelmust worn by Mauritanian Arabs were historically produced by Hausas and exported from Kano.

2. Claiming akwete as an independent Igbo creation ignores the contribution that the Ijebus had on the creation of akwete cloth. Akwete designs were appropriated from an older Ijebu weft float textile that Ijebus used to sell to the Ijaws centuries ago. This textile was introduced to the Ndokis via trade with Eastern Ijaws giving rise to the akwete cloth as we know it. And here you are chest-beating that Igbos are the only people in Nigeria with Indigenous cloth production and other tribes were influenced by foreigners.

I told the fact that Yorubas were naked before they had contact with Fulani but you think that attaching yourselves to Igbo Akwete clothes will make people say otherwise when it is only your blog is the doing the abominable linking.
Ndigbo never met you Yoruba guys as trade partners but as Opposite warring sides in Agha Idu na Oba in Igodomigodo (present Bini)
We share nothing in common.
Now take a look at the article FROM Vanguard on Akwete (I choose sites the person can relate to).

https://www.vanguardngr.com/2012/07/akwete-cloth-an-igbo-textile-art/

They specifically said that Akwete is as Old as the Igbo nation
The question is this, did Ijebu ode form the Igbo nation with us?
Oga you people were butt ass naked before the Fulani clothed your ancestors

THIEF CRIMINAL....
Look back in the days when when some tribes men were organizing there enclaves under a special secret sciety and distinguishing themselves in special writings, yours were still running wild in the bush
Now under a deranged online warrior you want to tell us history you don't have.
Best you stick to your useless propaganda and don't tread with your fishbrain knows nothing

LOL.
Someone just lost his senses on seeing Igbo culture and started ranting like a mad man.
Now look at the sculpture below. It is one of the best British preserved sculpture of Igbo origin dating tens of centuries ago.
Look at it and see Nsibidi at work. The lady artwork is wearing Igbo history on her
For your reference, I choose a reputable YORUBA history channel so that atleast you will have respect for your fellow Yoruba historian

https://www.imodara.com/magazine/wooden-fans-of-the-calabar-coast/

And this should be the last of engagement you will get from me for our writing system. This is the reason why Igbo history is not circulated in Nigerian media because just like the way you are doing now, it will make many Nigerians run mad

Ibrahimmrfish:
Oga,i am not Yoruba.

And you made such Yoruba like way of life. Just go and modify it if you don't want to drag innocent Yorubas to insult.

Ibrahimmrfish:
Kano was founded in the 9 century and from record the Hausa and Kanuri people have been wearing clothes for over 1700years compare to Igbo who start covering their selves cause of influence of Europeans just 120years ago.Kano was the center of textile production in whole of western sudan,caravans cross the sahara from Cairo, Tripoli to buy textile and shoes from Kano,there are historical records to back all this.Igbo land was never part of any great trade network, unlike Oyo,Benin,Kano,katsina,Kanem-Borno,Jukun,Igala and the Nupe so stop trying to twist history.

Of course Igbo land was never part of your trade network because we have nothing in common. If you are looking for Igbo trade network or have questions about their relationship with other ethnicities, Look towards Cameroon and Central Africa. This the reason why some of our culture is shared with people from that side like Ibibio, Efik, Ejeagham and Co. The only Nigerian people Ndigbo had visible contact with is Igodomigodo (ancient people of what is called Bini today and Esan). Esan even use and is still using our calendar system with the Igbo words (Eke, orie, Afọr and Nkwo)
You are just speculating. The only Nigerian tribe to have indigenous clothe production is Igbo.
Hausa had contact with the Muslim Arabs including Fulani in the late 10th century and accepted Islam in the 11th century. So they were clothed by the Arabs in the 11th century same with the kanuri. The only thing that followed suit was the establishment of Kano cloth production which later became one of the engine of the economy.
As for Yorubas, they were naked until 18th century when the fulani discovered and clothed them. Starting from Share, near Tsaragi.
This is why the traditional Yoruba men's dressing look like the bubban /boubou /baban Riga of Arabs

Ibrahimmrfish:
Yoruba

Yorubas and their shameless way of life. So you are now trying to claim the pictures of Igbo women in front our eyes?
Only the two piece wrapper would have made you to have some dignity but your DNA of history revision and trying to claim other people's culture still push you around.
Shameless people.
Leaders of Aba women's riot now changed to Yoruba women

LOL. You just typed a lie on one of your blogs and want to use it a reference. Everybody can type what they like.
The truth is that Akwete is the only indigenous cloth producers in the whole of Nigeria.
Yorubas were naked before 18th century until they had contact with fulani.
Akwete clothes are as old as the Igbo nation.
Every report says so except an unverified site with a sentence by a Yoruba history revisionist

When will this people stop LYING like Satan
Nsibidi they want to grab too.

Aba women started in Ikot Abasi under the Opobo division and claimed the lives of only Ibibio women most renowned being Madam Adiaha Edem Udo Udoma, the mother of Sir Udo Udoma the first Chief Justice of Uganda..

You IPOB rats should stop lying upandan the internet if not tomorrow your children will start claiming Ibibios as Junior IBO's like that unam Ikot you all worship

Shameless Yoruba dick sucker, this is information age and confidence of the kids depend on what they see about their identity online.
Have you ever challenged any miscreant re-writing and defacing any Igbo identity in any seminar or lecture? I believe you did GS in the yoruba school that you went to ( that is if you are even educated). Have you challenged any of the professor as to why they called Igbo acephalous but Athenians as Democrats? Because both practice the same decentralized leadership. No.
All you do in your shameless life is to hop from one social media to the other looking for Igbo promoters to castigate in a bid to console your self on the need to suck more Yoruba dicks.
Anuofia.
BTW OFEKE. The actual Proverb you were trying to quote is not "ofeke amaghị be nna ya" but "OFEKE AMAGHỊ MGBE EKE NKỤ UKWA"

Ofeke Goodluck with your life achievement of sucking Yoruba dicks

Ahamefuna0001:
I love how you give it to that she-g0at hot hot. My parents were surprised when I decided to drop my English name. Anyone ashamed of his Igboness is a liability to the Igbo nation.

They gourd u like ewu and you all fall katapa.
Every single day. How many times have you seen them come out here to do what you guys are doing. Which tribe behaves this way here or is nairaland made up of igbo and Yoruba alone?
Create uniting topics that all igbo sons and daughters can contribute to if you want to create a topic.
I'm a lady's and I tell you, u guys disgrace us a lot here cos the igbo family I came from and is married into don't whine like you guys.

I retaliate, you have nothing to prove to anybody online.
What makes one superior is how he handles his shit.
You guys should learn maturity online, emotional tantrums don't get you anywhere, sorry to say but those that bait you know it's your weak point and use that always. End result, more money into the site owners account.
When it comes to political permutation, u guys use emotions.
So ashamed.
Do you ever see any respectable igbo woman join your cause here?
Simply because we are all ashamed of how u guys behave like small babies.
Do show respect to igbo race and culture. Stop ridiculing it on nairaland.

Here they come "Lagos Igbo" with their stupidity.
My dear you are ashamed that I am giving it hot to your Yoruba Boyfriends.
Anybody that gets ashamed when his/her ethnicity is talked about in positive light is not proud of it
You should be ashamed of yourself to identify with Igbo. You better stick to the Yoruba dick you are sucking and leave Igbo matters to Igbotic people.
You probably thought that like you, every other Igbo will celebrate their identity demeaning and hide themselves.
We are not the same madam and don't ever think we are from the same ethnic group. I am Igbo in and out and not ashamed to project is anywhere but you can you?
As for posting it on nairaland "a Yoruba owned forum"
Madam there is something called information and it rules the world. It doesn't matter where the owner of the forum is from. If it is successful you use it. Hating on it because of the owner makes on a chronic hater.
Do you know how many young Igbo people that visit this forum (and others) on daily basis and what the gabbage they add to Igbo history and identity does to their mental health?
Do you think Linda Ikeji would have been successful without inputs by other ethnicities including Yoruba?
By the way what are you here for?
Probably to make your self believe it is worth it to be dating a Yoruba by swallowing their hateful comments on Igbo identity and expect others to cower in shame like you.
If you are waiting for all of us to keep all of the good side of our identity a mystery while the whole of Internet is littered with the propaganda, lies and gabbage your boyfriends litter then you are in for a shocker.
You are probably the type that hide their Igbo accent to be accepted.
Anumpama

EMMY76:
Am from the east haven't heard of such abomination.

You might be from the East but you don't know the custom that well. Ask people back home.
This custom is before Christianity homophobia and things/law/abominations are decided by the people not a monarch. And the people accepted same sex marriage and it became a norm before the Europeans introduced their Christianity which demonized it

EMMY76:
There's actually nothing like same sex marriage in Igbo culture married women who couldn't give birth were only allowed to marry other women for the sole purpose of child bearing and house chores the married women don't really sleep with the women they marry like the way lesbians do in advanced countries. It's an abomination for two women to be having sex together in igboland.

Don't say Igboland, say in Christianity.
And please stop sounding like a dummy in an educative thread like this. Ancient Igbo people were not like the primitive black people that decisions rest on an ignorant man they call king. Everything was subjected to vote and nobody can tell a married person what to do with her spouse.
If there was restrictions why allow them marry? You haven't thought of this because you are blinded by Christian norms.

Well you are in for a shocker.
Didn't you people glorify primitive Kingship as the hallmark of your civilization before you were shocked by the Igbo democracy today?

The picture below exposes your ignorance.
Look closely and see the Nsibidi in action.

And please save yourself some dignity by not asking me if the man in picture is Igbo or not.
You are making a fool of yourself

EMMY76:
Same sex marriage is not legalized in Igbo culture married women without children were only allowed to marry other women for the sole purpose of child bearing and helping out in house chores. The married women don't sleep with them like lesbians do abroad.

So you want to tell me that you monitor what married couples do in their rooms.
Oga I am talking about Igbo custom here not Christianity.
