LordOfTheGame:
These are oil from the South being channelled to the North through a process called Directional Drilling. It allows the products to run underground through the provided pipelines and be discharged into another place already prepared for it as a form of reservoir, and will be later "drilled" or explored.
Directional drilling can't go more than a distancing of 10km. So what da hell are you talking about?

The comments here are really funny. Messed up my uncles brains sometime in 2019. I believe they see me as a big masquerade in the village now. grin
Thank God for the stereotypes that smokers are criminals. I travelled home, went to the village stream lighted up my kpoli. grin I made sure everyone in the village that came to the stream to wash that morning saw me smoking, and the word quickly spread that Honorable's son is a bad boy/criminal/cultist, granted I never travelled home much when my Dad was alive, so they don't really know me. But that impression I left, has made them avoid me till date.

In this world, if people perceive you as weak, you are finished. Do something crazy, and you'll be feared. Believe me it works.

Nnamdi Kanu was filmed exchanging a smile with his lawyer in court today, Newspremises reports.

The detained leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) was in court today, Nov. 10, for his trial.

He was brought into the courtroom around 9.52am but the case was adjourned to Jan 19 after Kanu's team of lawyers staged a walkout over the refusal of operatives of the Department of State Services to allow some of them to gain access into the courtroom.

Culture / Re: Traditional Marriage Rites Ceremony Of Umudioka Town, Dunukofia Lga Of Anambra S by CzarChris(m): 6:34pm On Oct 25, 2021
observer2020:
TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE RITES IN UMUDIOKA, DUNUKOFIA LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA OF ANAMBRA STATE

Umudioka town is a community situated in Anambra central senatorial district, which is also under Dunukofia LGA in Anambra State. In this write-up, I will narrate the traditional marriage process of Umudioka Town.
In many parts of the world, a marriage ceremony is mainly an affair between the bride and groom, but in igboland, parents of the couple, their extended families, villagers and towns people play active roles in traditional marriage ceremony.

Ndị Umudioka (also known as Ezebo ) are from the eastern region of Nigeria, and the traditional marriage rite in this part of the counrty is usually very festive and colourful.
In the olden days in Umudioka , traditional marriages used to be arranged by the parents of the future bride and groom, after careful investigations into the background of both families. These days, however, young men and women are now free to choose whoever they want to get married to, with parental approval.
Despite the seeming change in the method of choosing a spouse, the Umudioka culture has been sustained, where traditional marriage is concerned. The process involves different stages.


STAGE ONE: IKU AKA (VISIT TO POTENTIAL IN-LAWS)

When a man meets a woman he likes and wants to marry, he informs his parents of his intentions. The man then goes with his parents and other family members to the woman’s house to notify her parents or guardians of their interest and to ask for their consent to marry their daughter. When going on such a visit, the man will take the following items along ; Wine/Hot drink, kola nuts, one cartoon of beer and one cartoon of mineral, to present to the woman, her parents and other family members.,

When the intentions of the man has been known, the woman’s parents will usually not give an immediate answer and will tell the man’s parents to return at a later date. Before the date of the next visit, the family of the woman will take that time to look into and investigate the history and background of the man’s family. They will use the time to find out about the man’s personality what he does for a living among other issues and also extend their investigation to other members of his family.

It should also be noted that the man’s family would have done a similar check on the woman their son intends to marry before visiting her parents and making their intentions known.


STAGE TWO: ACCEPTANCE OF PROPOSAL (NOT TOO IMPORTANT IN THESE MORDEN DAYS)

When both families are satisfied with their findings on each other’s background, they will meet again on the date set for a return visit. Once again the man’s family will state their intentions and will come along with more gifts this time including palm wine, dry drinks, soft drinks and other items.

At this point, the woman is called in by her family members to be part of the meeting and is told about the man’s intentions to marry her. If she accepts his proposal the gifts that were brought will be shared immediately among the family members. If for whatever reason the woman does not accept his proposal, then the meeting will come to an end and all talks about marriage will be over and done with.

In a situation where their daughter is not around because she does not live with them, the parents will tell the man’s family they will have to get in touch with them later and give them an answer. If they get a positive reaction, then proceedings will move to the next stage which is to set a bride price to be paid by the man who intends to marry their daughter.



STAGE THREE: IRU ỌNỤ NWAANYỊ NA IBU EGO (PAYING OF BRIDE PRICE)

Once both families have decided to be in-laws, the next stage involves the woman’s family setting a bride price which they feel is befitting of their daughter to be paid by her husband to be.

In Umudioka town, bride price is not that high when compared to other towns in the Eastern part of the country. Also what the man will be asked to pay in terms of cash or goods or both may vary from family to family.

It should be noted that setting a bride price does not mean the parents of the girl plan to sell off their daughter, far from it, the bride price just indicates that they appreciate their daughter as whatever is paid cannot be said to be the value of their daughter.

With that stated, there are times when the bride price is negotiated especially if the man and his family feel they may have been asked to pay a lot of money .
The family of the woman may set a high bride price if they feel their daughter has accomplished a lot in life or if she is well educated and has a good job. They can also set a high bride price if they feel she has been brought up and raised properly by them and has the virtues every man looks for in a wife.

On the other hand, the man’s family will also present their own case by presenting their son as a man worthy to take care of any woman as his wife. They can also present other attributes that the man possesses to state their case for a reduction of the bride price.

This can go on for some time before a price is finally agreed. Other items involved in the bride paying ceremony includes, 20 liters of palm wine, two cartoons of beer, one cartoon of Stout, one cartoon of mineral, one bottle of St Remy, Kola nuts to be accompanied with not less than #200.


STAGE FOUR: EWU NNA (KILLING OF KINDRED GOAT)

This stage is called igbu ewu nna, because it is solemn for the kindred of the bride. Sometimes, The groom can combine stage three and four together, depending on the agreements between the two families. Once you have performed this stage, it is assumed that you have officially completed the marriage rites of the bride, because in this stage, a prayer is being said by the elders of the kindred for their daughter and they do bless their in-law. Once you have done this stage, any child from their union is automatically the groom’s child.

The items for this stage are divided into two, one for men of the kindred and the other for the women of the kindred;
For Men: one big castrated goat (Ewu Hausa), 10 big tubers of yam, one big cock, four cartoons of beer(mixed), two cartoons of malt, one cartoon of Stout, two cartoons of mineral, one bottle of St Remy, 20 liters of palm wine, kola nuts.
For Women (Ife Nkpuke) : 10 big tubers of yam, one big cock, one cartoon of malt, one cartoon of mineral, one thousand naira, one piece of hollandes (wrapper), kola nuts.


STAGE FIVE : ỊGBA NKWU NWAANYỊ (THE TRADITIONAL WEDDING CEREMONY)

In the final stage of the traditional marriage rites, the groom will go to the house of the bride-to-be with his immediate and extended family, villagers and towns people with the above items. Host families will prepare different kinds of indigenous dishes to entertain their guests. Both families and their extended families including members of their communities will eat, dance and drink together.
The traditional wedding ceremony is usually a fun filled event with a lot of happy faces, people gorgeously dressed with a lot of good food to eat and lovely music to listen and dance to.

A major aspect of the traditional wedding is the wine carrying part. This is an aspect of the traditional wedding ceremony most brides will never forget and even the groom as it ignites a lot of fun and excitement.

The bride is given a cup of palm wine by her father or a male member in her family. She is then told in front of the guests that they do not know who her husband is and will like her to fish him out for all to see and present him with the cup of wine.

At this point in time the groom would be hiding among the guests as part of the fun to make it difficult for his wife to locate him. When the wife finally finds her husband, she will kneel down before him and a take a sip of the wine and give him the rest to drink which he will finish. Afterwards, the bride and groom will dance along with their family members.
The following are items for the ịgba nkwu ceremony ; 80 liters of palm wine, 12 cartoons of beer, 2 cartoons of Stout, 2 cartoons malt, 8 cartoons of mineral.

NKWU EKPERE (FORMERLY KNOWN AS ITU NKWU)
This stage is being done within the day of the traditional marriage. After every merriment on that day the groom, bride and few representatives from both families will gather together and say their final prayers and give blessings to the newly married couple. During the ceremony, the bride and the groom will be asked to kneel down. The parents and elders in the family of both the bride and groom will pray for the newlyweds and the for success of their marriage.
The items for these stage are; 20 liters of palm wine, one cartoon of beer, one bottle of St Remy, kola nuts, two rolls of tobacco (isi ụtaba), two packets of cigarettes, Ego ndị Nze #500, Ego Umuokolobia #500, Ego Umuagbogbo #500, Chencheghanata #100, Ego Otiti okpili #100.

When the ceremony is over, the bride will go home with the family of the groom signifying that the two are now husband and wife.

IDU UNO/MMALU UNO (SETTLING THE BRIDE BY HER FAMILY / VISITATION TO THE GROOMS HOUSE BY THE BRIDES FAMILY)
In Umudioka town , "Idu Uno" is practiced. Idu Uno is when the family of the bride officially goes and visit the home where their daughter will be living. Note that the previous ceremony and meetings took place in the bride's family home.

The bride's family buys cooking utensils, bed-sheets, boxes, sewing machine, bed, pillow cases, plates, clothes and other things newly married couples need to start a life and family.

Also, the bride's family along with their extended families sets a date to visit the couple with all the goods they bought. On "Idu Uno" day, the wife's family will give the newly married couple all the things they bought for them.

This is usually done to give newly married couple a head start by defraying some of their expenses. Marriage ceremonies in Umudioka can be a long and expensive undertaking, but they are usually worth every kobo., because our daughters are the best to get married to.

‘Shame on you’: Fani-Kayode tells Zamfara deputy gov over refusal to defect
Mr Fani-Kayode, a member of the PDP, accuses the Zamfara deputy governor of disloyalty for refusing to defect to the APC with Governor Matawalle.
BySamson Adenekan August 25, 2021 3 min read
A former aviation minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, has condemned Zamfara State Deputy Governor, Mahdi Gusau, over his refusal to join the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

In a Twitter post on Tuesday, the former minister, who is a PDP stalwart, said the official was disloyal for not joining his principal, Bello Matawalle, to decamp from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the ruling party.
The Zamfara Governor, alongside the state, lawmakers and commissioners officially joined the APC in July, months after the defection of Governors Ben Ayade of Cross River State and David Umahi of Ebonyi State.

“When a Governor decamps from one party to another, shouldn’t his Deputy go with him? Is that not what loyalty is all about?, Against his better judgement @Bellomatawalle1 picked you as his running mate & made you Deputy Governor & now you undermine & betray him?

Governor Bello Matawalle of Zamfara and the deputy governor of the state, Mahdi Gusau.
Governor Bello Matawalle of Zamfara and the deputy governor of the state, Mahdi Gusau.
“Shame on you!,” he said, throwing many of his followers on the platform off balance.

Mr Fani-Kayode is a prominent member of the PDP.

The former Minister, a strong critic of APC and President Muhammadu Buhari, has on different occasions denied speculations of him joining the ruling party.

With the court injunction restraining Uche Secondus as the chairman of the main opposition party, the former minister expressed doubts that the main opposition party could resolve its leadership crisis before the 2023 general elections.


“Even if the order is lifted in a few days the leadership crisis in the party just does not seem to want to go away.

“For how much longer can the centre hold?

“Looks like a meltdown to me!”, Mr Fani-Kayode said in another tweet posted on Tuesday morning, hours before the party crisis took a worsening turn.


While the ex-aviation minister posts were still attracting torrent of criticisms from his followers in his comment section, two national deputy chairmen of the PDP, declared rights to Mr Secondus’ seat following the court order.

Relying on Section 45 (2) of the PDP Constitution, the Deputy National Chairman (South), Yemi Akinwonmi, postponed the party’s NWC meeting indefinitely as he declared himself national chairman pending the determination of the restraining order on the embattled chairman.

In defiance of the other, Deputy National Chairman (North), Suleiman Nazif, declared himself national chairman at the party’s headquarters hours after, citing the health condition of Mr Akinwonmi.


“On this note, distinguished NWC members, I hereby take full charge of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as Chairman in an acting capacity.

“We have waited this morning for the Deputy National Chairman (South) who has been incapacitated, who has not been attending NWC meeting in the last nine months and I believe there was a communication between the deputy national chairmen (south),” PREMIUM TIMES reported him, saying.


Mr Nazif’s Tuesday’s declaration arguably fit into Mr Fani-Kayode adjudged comments on the PDP leadership vis-à-vis his recent visits and outings with some key members of the ruling APC.

The former minister was reported in February by the Kogi State governor, Yahaya Bello, to have dumped the PDP following his meeting with him and the APC interim National Chairman, Mala Buni.

Although Mr Bello took credit for Mr Fani-Kayode’s alleged defection, the latter denied ever making such a decision. He said his meeting with the duo was borne out of national concerns other than personal property.

“It is right and proper for us to talk and to attempt to join hands across political, religious and regional lines to save Nigeria.

“The fact that I am in talks with leaders from a cross-section of political parties, including the ruling party, does not in any way derogate from this and does not mean that I will ever change those from views,” he explained.

Aside his more recent meetings with other members of the ruling party, the ex-aviation minister was again trolled on social media giant, Twitter, for attending the wedding ceremony of Mr Buhari’s son in Kano last week.

Flanked by governors and lawmakers from the APC, pictures of Mr Fani-Kayode at the ceremony ruled the Twitter space as more Nigerians question his credibility and political leaning.

Months earlier, he had attracted public criticism when he insulted a Daily Trust correspondent who had asked at a press conference ‘who was bankrolling’ his frequent trips across the nation to meet political figures across party lines.

The vocal politician later apologised publicly to the reporter.
