Originally when the Igbos or Ibos settled in the present day Eastern Nigeria, they arrived with three leaders, two were spiritual leaders and the youngest of the three a hereditary King known as Obi a King by birthright. The first was the Eze Nri of Awka a Priest King, the second the Eze Aro of Arochukwu a King and the third the Obi of Nnewi a political and war ruler. The Obi of Onitsha was well qualified to become an Obi being disputably the first among the two sons of....


The Aros know this history (Nnewi being a relation and a leader among the Igbos) and this is part of the reason why there are no Aro settlements in Nnewi.

This is from Wikipedia. Nevertheless NRI never crowned Nnewi. Nnewi was actually the first Igbo clan to be lead by an obi. Nri was just the spiritual capital, nothing more

crackhouse:
This man is trying hard to sell himself to Anambra people but who cares? He's not yet a governor but already acting like one.

He is already our governor. Soludo can only win nairaland.
We will vote for the person that did visible projects in the state not for a party

VcStunner:
Anambra is way too competitive, I feel sorry for him. But it's Soludo's turn.

He is also from Anambra south so what are you saying?

thesicilian:
Even a goat will not make this kind of dumb statement.

This is why I said that they are wiser than Nigerian Youths because if you have sense you'll know that goats neither speak nor type

omotoniwa:
Ibo boy's every where.

Even in Anambra again? Hate won't allow you notice that they are in their own state

BabaOwen:

Which one is h? Are you a stammerer?

Goats are becoming more intelligent than Nigerian Youths

But if you look at this matter critically, you'll realize that the husband is making a fool of himself.
Yes if you look at the marriage certificate and oaths, there is no where penalty for infidelity is mentioned so any married man should prepare his mind and heart for cases like this. This is why I advise young people to always know the person they are taking to altar because the power to cheat and be faithful is an exclusive decision of both parties

African men are the most stupid creature I have ever seen.
The way they rush to adopt European practices neglecting their customs brought this kind of disgraceful event we are seeing here. Just look at how the stupid lady in question was standing by the side waiting for the winner to take her.

One thing that comes with influx of population is increase in crime. The state security agency needs to prepare herself and recruit more personnel.
One thing I support in life and always support is DEATH PENALTY for any type of arm robber even if the persons arm is catapult because he or she came with intent to kill

Abia state government thinks Nov 23 is a too far. Oga we will be here that day to watch you give excuses or drive trailer and hired tractor up and down on that road and end up doing nothing.
The truth is that Gov Ikpeazu and Abia state as a whole is giving Ndigbo bad name. Yes I said the whole Abia State for consistently voting in nonsense back to back to back. Does it mean that their stomach is better than their future. Ndị eriri eri

One thing about disputed tribes in a country is that if you don't expel them or eradicate them completely, they will trail you like wolves like MNK and IPOB are doing now and when you become truly weak they take you down.
Based on the acceptance of the propaganda from MNK by the Nigerian Youths (this is evident in the Endsars concert), In the next 20 years Nigeria will not have military that is mentally motivated to stand any insurgency. Like it or not, most Nigerian Youths have fallen to MNK supposed madness

Those I listed are ethnicities with far smaller population than Ndigbo and took down countries that are more than times 50 of their size.
There is a clear difference between a tribe and a country and when there is war, a country always win but if she fails to completely eradicate the first one (tribe), no matter how long it takes, she will come back and take down the country. That was how the germanic tribes permanently defeated the superior morale of the Roman forces after being annexed for decades. They made germania a death trap for Roman soldiers.
Now it is also important to note that it is extremely difficult to eradicate an entire tribe. The only people that came close to defying this phenomenon was the Spanish and British in the red Indian genocide but somehow some of the Indians like the Cherokee managed to survive confirming the theory

Leave Nigeria, they will listen the hard way.
There is never a time in history where secession is called for by majority of a particular ethnic group that if resisted won't lead to serious bloodshed. And always keep this in mind, no nation have defeated an ethnic group twice in battle. Take the case of the Goths that brought down the mighty Roman Empire. Goths are actually a small tribe of barely one million people but managed to bring down the great Roman Empire that swallowed almost the entire Europe after being beaten and humiliated by the Romans. They took down and sacked the capital in the second attempt.
Take the case of the seljuk Turks that took down Constantinople on the second attempt after being withered and decimated by the byzantines in their first attempt but sacked, enslaved, and humiliated the byzantines on the second attempt and even took beautiful Hagia Sophia (the most beautiful cathedral in the world) as a trophy which they converted to mosque and is still in use till date.

Whiteshield:
Pythons are worshipped in many parts of Igboland. It seems to be a part of Igbo culture and tradition.

They are sacred not worshipped. Sometimes I wonder how you black men reason.
Btw it doesn't harm people here and when I was very young, we use her to cool off after playing football. It's very cold and harmless

And that is how the assistant referee lost his job.
They say the best way to defeat a "black man" in legal cases is to work on his anger and this scenario proved it right.

Hmmm

Kyase:
The only thing south east can produce effectively is cassava........


But what's the bolded doing on your list sef

Catfish is a normal stuff here. Shame that you don't travel for enjoyment. What do you think that Awkuzu is known for? If you listen to Igbo musicians like Flavour, Phyno and slowdog you'll here them say "let's go to Awkuzu and enjoy catfish"

Arrewa:
that is an abandoned court room..
Its already on twitter... But you guys decided to change the whole narrative here on Nairaland.

Gombe is more developed than Enugu and Anambra combined

How does your pile of bungalows and extremely coloured roofs to hide the rusty zincs which is a signature of poverty compare to these

Canih28:
Am sure this is the only built up place

Built up place with bungalows and extremely coloured picture to hide the zinc roofs they use instead of aluminum

And the two giants are preparing for the third world War while inconsequential countries like Nigeria are thinking of ways to cash out from the IMF with ridiculous things like Nigeria has Covid-19 and projection of fake numbers

kollinzgee:
As long as Nigeria still exist ikwerres will keep denying igbos,the spell will only break when The great biafran opportunity we have all being waiting for surfaces,don't be decieced the day the igbo nation gets the chance to leaves Nigeria that day every igbo speaking entity outside the southeast will fight tooth and nail to join the igbo nation nobody will wait to to bear that title of remainder Igbos of Nigeria.

And when things go south or the political affairs of the new state doesn't favour them, they will go back to the Bini mania and try to poison the mind of others.
Sometimes I wonder how ipob members think. Ikwerre and ika are cancer to Ndigbo and the only way to get rid of cancer is by excision

Incase you people don't know, the black pepper that is popular in Nigeria is actually imported from Cameroon, which I believe doesn't count as North.
So tell me what North gives people apart from Onions and beef?

Did somebody talk about importing oil, pepper and tomatoes from North?
God of mercy, is this how dull products of Nigerian education system have become? How can a region in the rain forest import oil and tomatoes from a region in Sudan and mostly sahel savanna?
Hey, I'm dumbfounded. Besides what is the shelf life of tomatoes and heat resistant capacity of the harvested bulbs?
Nigerians are really dull.

The few things south east import from North are onions, beef and to some extent beans and potatoes.
As for rice, we don't actually eat their rice because it is sub standard.
You that is about to quote me to talk rubbish, answer this question "when you want to buy local rice in the market what type of rice do you tell the seller you want buy, is it not ABAKALIKI RICE?"

winterfell007:
I'm from Anambra I'm begging you guys to stop this joke. It's very embarrassing. How can you say Anambra economy will surpass Lagos, we aren't even talking about Ibadan, we're already thinking of Lagos. That's like saying Leeds City's economy will surpass London. That's very laughable

It's like inferiority is embedded in you people's DNA. Do you know that I can't say that I am from any south western state even as a joke

I'm not surprised. Even lucifer managed to have an angel girlfriend.
The truth about nature is that women are not known to be territorial which is the reason why a nation seeking to build an empire must desist from a female leader.
P.S don't even think of quoting me. Whether to concur with me, applaud, complain or insult. I don't have energy to reply anybody.

BigBabyJesus:
So tough guy beats an old lady .

Said tough guy gets his ass handed back to him from where he fled Benin .


I see how tough your tough guy Eze was.

A bloody arrogant goat who got his ass buttfcked .

The most important thing in the event is the he made his point that he is not somebody to be toyed with by beating some sense into that troublesome woman and the world respect him for it

If you like call it photoshopped news. The truth is that there is no smoke without fire.
And our minimum wage is 30,000 naira.
Please can someone tell me the level of ex Boko Haram members in Nigerian Civil service?

BigBabyJesus:
Always getting kicked out over their foolishness .

You had the nerve to beat the queen mother of your host community and you expected what in return ?

Igbo foolishness is always compounded by their arrogance.

In as much as I don't condone beating of women or any other gender at all but that woman stepped out of line. She knew that Eze Chima is a hot tempered man but decided to tempt him and he showed her why they call him Eze Chima.
No apologies here

You seriously want to compare your pile of bungalows and photoshopped rusty zinc to Anambra and Enugu.
Well, feed your Eyes. Below is Anambra (1st, 2nd) and Enugu (3rd, 4th)respectively. We no be mates

OfoIgbo:
FIrst of all, Eze Chima was not an Aro man for the following reasons.

The Nris were crowning the Obis of Onitsha up until the 1960s. Onitsha monarchs claim to be descended from Eze Chima. Nris don't crown Aro people.

Nris own the shrines Eke, Oye/Orie, Afo and Nkwo so these shrines can never be installed by Aro people. It can only be installed by Nri people, so the fact that Benin people make use of these market days/shrines is wholly because of the Nris.

Benin is older than Aro, so there is no way Benin will accept any Aro supremacy over them. Nri is way older than both Igodomigodo and Benin, and various anthropological reports by the British colonialists and expeditions by ancient Portuguese explorers have already identified the Nris as being the cultural and religious guardians of Benin.

This is yet another rubbish to deny Nris some of their heritage. Aros don't own the Igbo market days/shrines

Tell them. One said that Anambra people bear Chuma as if Anambra existed prior to 1970s. Arọ that was founded yesterday
