Ile-Ife:
He is from an oil producing state. Every black man from an oil producing town or village should be able to live a comfortable live like the Arabs, and the smarter ones among should be richer. My opinion.

[size=18pt]The "Cannibalism" Mode[/size]

But there is another side to the meaning of "Igbo" as defined by Onitsha people, a counterpart to Onitsha self-identification and human sacrificers, which might be called a "culture of cannibalism". One reason Onitsha people historically held Ndi-Igbo in contempt arose from their shared traditional claim that Ndi Igbo avidly consumed human flesh (a practice that Onitsha people regarded with strong repugnance). Moreover, in several contexts third parties claimed to us that young Igbo men had boasted to them of personal commitment to this custom, even describing means of preserving the cooked meat by baking it in clay. This "cultural tradition" thus also took the form of a potential threat uttered by some Igbo people toward others.

That a historical culture of cannibalism existed in Igboland east and southeast of Onitsha (but excluding Onitsha itself) was asserted both in diverse missionary accounts of the 19th century and in ethnographic surveys undertaken during the colonial era. See, for example, Crowther 1873 (C.M Record 1873 pp. 217 18), Leonard 1906, pp. 161 2, 181, Thomas 1913 (vol.1), pp. 83 5, Talbot 1926 (vol. III), 826 38, Basden 1938, pp. 126-7. Basden draws a sharp contrast between Ndi-Onicha and their Western relatives versus those of the "eastern interior", stating that among the latter "The general practice was to eat all captives taken in war" and that, with widespread "meat hunger" in this region, people believed that a diet including human flesh was very significantly tonic.

OBRICADO: In my own case the dude involved come out plane: he told me how he is married to oyibo plus 3 kids from her, that he's only gona get married to me traditionally only, I.e no white wedding and any christmass his oyibo is comming to Nigeria I'll park to my parents house until she leaves for Europe then I'll come back,one of her friends wifey who is under such marital condiction were preaching to me how they enjoy when their hubby comes back for xmas et al, but I bluntly declined that kind of marriage. To the best of my knoledge, he just needed a slave and not a wife. NB: he said I was never gonna come over to the Europe with him and he doesn't have plans on divorcing d oyibo, so all he will do was to rent me a flat in ph or lagos and even most of his kingsmen will think I'm his girlfriend. Then I asked supposing his oyibo finds out about me? he boldly told me that he will make her to believe that he was drunk and didn't kw how it happend (I.e if I've given birth if not he will deny it). Thank God I never gave in to such bondage.

Sisi_Kill: So they wanna be ooohing and aaahing and give it to me hard babing with momma in the next room....with the doors open? Why not kukuma just invite momma for menage a trois and be done with it.

horny4u: Men who ask thier wives to become housewife ( not that poster said this) should not bother sending their daughters to school....kids learn by example and copy thier mothers more....so recognise that your daughter will be cool with being a house wife too what comes around.......goes around.

lagcity: Are you alright at all?
Ojukwu divided Nigerians, Abiola united Nigerians.
Ojukwu ran for president and didn't win a single state even in Igboland, Abiola ran and won the whole of Nigeria.
Ojukwu was in London riding benz when Abiola was selling firewood before going to school.
But Ojukwu squandered his father's money while Abiola made his own money.
Ojukwu ran away in iro and buba, Abiola stayed and stood by his mandate and was arrested.
While Ojukwu was on the flight to Abidjan, he told Effiong to keep up the fight, knowing fully well that's suicide. Abiola told ppl to keep calm during his arrest in order to avoid bloodshed.
Now, who's more important?
