Agboriotejoye:
Where do you see me defending her? Is English that difficult for you?

while the woman always insisted those properties are not hers or the values inflated. She even offered to come back to Nigeria to clear the air during one of those audio recoveries

These are your words for a woman who stole us blind and is now hiding in Dominican Republic to evade justice.
Keep the same energy for both thieves or alleged thieves. That's objectivity and integrity!

Agboriotejoye:
I can bet you that will never happen. Not with magu at least. Do you know how many times he's extradited diezani since 2015 while the woman is enjoying her life all over UK. He even went about confiscating audio properties to titillate zombies while the woman always insisted those properties are not hers or the values inflated. She even offered to come back to Nigeria to clear the air during one of those audio recoveries only for may magu who claimed he was trying to extradite her to reject the offer. Talk about audio anti-corruption pight

You too why are defending her? Both she and Magu are thieves, is that too heavy for your mouth to say?

Corruption and fraud apologists everywhere! Smh.

Peacebeuntoyouu:
Leave story.
Now how does that sound? Be honest.
Sometimes, you might only have a feeling of a particular thing only when you become the victim of such situation. Just like the way you feel now.
You are very correct about me over reacting but you didn't also understand the magnitude of how that word can seem insulting until I used it on you, after you took time to make sense only for me to come and call you a story teller..

This post is bigger than us.. I'm not going to be found derailing it which is exactly what I was trying to avoid albinitio.

@ Jmaine, bro, I apologize for my over reaction.. you didn't mean it the way I took it. Cheers to moving forward

@ Chris525 much respect bro.. you doing great. Appreciate

@everyone.. Let's go on with the "fun", some people that have refused to become civilized might be entertaining us today .. please bring on the stories here make we analysis as e dey hot

Blessings

Beautiful! We move.

Peacebeuntoyouu:
Manner of approach might be nothing to you, but a big deal to people with sense. I'm not going to join issues with you. I have made my point. Whether you take redress or not is up to you..

Peace

Guy, let me spell it out to you, you overreacted, simple.

He used the 'forget story' as a simple English conjunction like 'but', 'nevertheless', 'however'.

How can you get mad with a mere conjunction? Did you read the harmless sentence that followed the said 'offending' conjunction?

You are simply projecting and transferring aggression to jmaine. Your negative perception and interpretation of that phrase is clearly not his fault. Take responsibility for misinterpreting the harmless phrase and end this needless feud.

This is easily the most embarrassing and shameful and idiotic thread I've ever seen on NL. See what umunne are doing in public. Tufiakwa! Spits on thread!

Thane:
If that's how she likes it, then damn it and leave it to her. Cook your own your way. Besides she is not running a restaurant.
I'm sure you don't cook Ofe nsala the way my people cook it too. Don't be petty man. Pocohantas has the right to cook it anyway it suits her taste, if she opens a restaurant in Onitsha or in Nando my hometown and cooks it without ogiri, nobody will tell her to cook it to standard before she will do so or if it is for a wedding ceremony then you can scold her. But for now, its her personal taste

The guy you are quoting is an adult that has a psychological age of 7. Save yourself your energy and time, bro.

Osagyefo98:
Then they are cooking poison. am I even talking when most of the non igbos are culture less entities..

Poison? I give up on you bro, no offence.

Egbe bere, Ugo bere... Onye biri, ibe ya biri.

That's all you'll get from me. Bye.

Osagyefo98:
It is not hard to take corrections.

Coming here to tell us that ogili is optional is outright Ignorance and you said it is common to east but deceiving the audience.


Sometimes , I wonder if you guys have any atom of culture at all?

Dude, what's your problem na? Ogili/ogiri is optional for many Igbos, especially non-Anambrarians. Some will never use it to cook, no matter what. Haba!!!

Jada was that beautiful, classy, brainy, intelligent, talented, magnetic, charismatic yet down to earth girl that you see on earth only once in a blue moon.

Pac fell for her and she fell for Pac's charisma and liveliness.

Their relationship was complicated. Wasn't sexual. Was friendship but deeper than being married.

Will Smith was jealous of it. Even though she was with him he knew they could never get to depths of pure love and bliss and chemistry she and 2pac had.

fieryy:
I was honestly feeling fly until this hahaha

But thank you

Lol. You are welcome

Kriss216:
Bitter truth.

And there is no fraud without karma and her sorrows, bozo

Klass99:
I totally agree with you, I am working on leaving already.

Good. God's grace.

fieryy:
I might be the next Chinua Achebe in the making

You wish

More seriously, you can be the next you that can break records in your own field or gifting. It's in you.

Klass99:
Wetin I wan talk again nah?

But I bet you, if they put you with my male colleagues you will choose your female ones over mine.

My own people only need to see us together in your car (you giving me a ride home after work) and the story will be that we are shagging each other.

It got so bad at one point that the MD called a meeting with some PH staff and Lagos staff. PH people were flown into Lasgidi for this meeting to address damaging gossip and rumours some of them were peddling

You go fear men nah

Plan to leave that workplace for the good of your career and your emotional and mental wellbeing. That's my advice. An office where rumours and gossip is the order of the day is a walking corpse. There is no future there.

Ezennwa:
why is Yoruba politicians afraid to visit Orji Kalu, because he is a threat to their 2023 Presidential ambition.

You want this renowned looter to become President? Tufiakwa! God forbid!!!

Perhaps you are a troll or a fool, I know not.

Ezennwa:
Yoruba people are using EFCC against Igbos, while
Tinubu and Osinbajo are walking freely, after
embezzlement of public funds.


They are using EFCC against Igbos just because of
2023 presidential election.


Since Orji Uzor Kalu came out of Prison, no
Yoruba politician had ever visited him, only
Northern Politicians have visited him.

It shows that Yoruba politicians hate Igbos with
passion. Igbos now know their real enemy.

One South indeed.

Orji Uzo Kalu and T.A. Orji are Aninis and political Hushpuppis, that's all we want to know. Bloody looters apologist.

fieryy:
My akwa ugo, nkem. You look so onu ugu and tomato jos today.

Op, how did I do?

A little rough on the edges but not bad at all.

bigfrancis21:
Olaedo is gold. Edo means yellow color in Igbo and gold is yellowish in color, hence the name: olaedo.

Olaocha is diamond, ocha referring to white/clear, which diamond is.

Also there’s no upper comma in Igbo orthography when indicating possessive statements, i.e. olaocha m, not olaocha’m.

Overall, nice one.

Olaocha is silver not diamond.

20 years for the Anini in a US jail, not bad, not bad at all.

Alooone:
this is exactly the situation i find myself now...we grew up in the north...but my parents made sure i could speak igbo...so i grew up learning how to speak two languages...hausa and igbo (i can speak the igbo but cant write)...now where the problem started is when i got married...my husband who is igbo prefers and is comfortable with my kids speaking english (he feels it makes them posh and modern)...he feels since they are growing up in a city like port harcourt they will pick up igbo at some time..of which am not comfortable with,...now whats the end result my kids can hear igbo but cant speak...my 5yr old daughter initially was speaking it but her daddy made sure he douse out any remenant of igbo in her...my two and half year old "hears" igbo but cant also speak....am with my parents now...and hopefully am trying to seize this opportunity to teach them how to speak igbo...i dont want to raise" My mama say i be igbo " kinda kids.

Your husband got it all wrong. Kids can speak up to 5 languages by the time they are 12. You can Google this. Kids are language sponges. Many Igbos made and still make this same mistake of speaking only English to their kids so they don't turn out razz. Some believe it affords them some form of advantage in life. Absolute bunkum.

Chimamanda is in the US and speaks only Igbo to her daughter. She says her daughter will be able to pick up English when she starts schooling and interacting with others. Chimamanda was raised that way too by her parents. She and her siblings are well grounded in Igbo language and culture yet their spoken and written English is top notch.

Enough said.

Chris525:
We good bro. Thanks all the same.

Cheers.

Good! Lest we risk derailing the objective of this thread.

kingthreat:
God bless. The primal objective remains say no to cultism. My apologies to Chris525

Nice one bro. Commendable is the way you've handled this.

butterfly777:
Here we go, "don't judge". It is when it's about speak up against evil among men that some of us come up with that. And we misapply the word of God.

To judge can mean two things literally:
1. To access, form opinion on what is good or bad.
2. To condemn to punishment- e.g, this one will go to hell, be destroyed, etc.

God did not say which should not access things to decide which is good or bad. Just that as number 2, we are not the one to pronounce punishment in people.

So, let's call evil evil when we see it, in order to help ourselves and others to flee all appearance of evil. It is evil that operates in darkness and secrecy.

That they became Presidents and leaders doesn't mean they are good. It is not so hidden that some of us here are trying to subtly defend and promote cultism.

You are a wise man. We see through the subterfuge.

Whether it's confraternity or fraternity or cults or gangs, we no want again. Your stupid experiments failed in Africa.

Go and join them in the US. We no do again!

Nonsense and ingredient.

seguno2:
Excellent advice.
I wonder what stops most of us from using the services of psychotherapists, given the many scientifically proven advantages of doing so.
Can it be that we are too religious

Religion and ignorance.

It's also important you know how competent the therapist is.

One 1 hour therapy session by a competent therapist could heal this memory completely. Why allow this ruin your life and relationships till now? Why allow your mum's weakness or error or mistake to determine your present and your future?

You are now an adult. Take responsibility and heal this issue now. Take charge.

Chris525:
I like the suggestions pouring in. Lets keep the energy pls. However, I differ with the idea that cultism can not be eradicated. The task might seem daunting but we must face it squarely as an individual, society & government.

If the people who fought for the abolishment of slave trade decided to manage it, you would probably be on a plantation in North Carolina planting cotton.

You dont manage a disease that has a cure. You can not manage a menace like cultism, lets not kid ourselves. If anyone could, Prof. & Rica would have done so, Felix Rupa would have done it.

The way to defeat the evil called cultism is to cut its head off. You want to manage cultism in tertiary institutions as per professional course or what? Cultism has no place in a progressive society.

Can you propose that idea to owners of Nile Uni, Covenant or ABTI? To manage & accomodate cultism in their billion naira investment?

Cultism must stop. Lets stand on that. It wont happen in a day, gradually the day will come.

Gbamsomely stated. I stand with you on this.

No good can ever come from cultism or confraternities in Nigeria. The very foundations on which they were formed and on which they stand is evil and diabolic and nothing good can come out of it.

They've poisoned and perverted and warped our collective minds and values. They've seared our souls and calloused our hearts. They've mainstreamed wickedness and meanness.

They've distracted, divided and destroyed 3 generations of Nigerians and we are still counting.

Brothers killing brothers, Africans killing Africans, blacks killing blacks. Tufia!

Our wells are filled with the blood and limbs and body parts of our sons and daughters and siblings and relatives and friends.

Fear, trauma, distrust, pain, danger, destruction, death, that's all we ever learnt from them.

Prof and his ilk and offspring gave us a Greek gift. Their fraternity experiment failed woefully and the cost is humongous.

There comes a time in a man's life when he's had it up to the brim and says to himself, "enough is enough."

We must reject and eject that evil gift in totality now. We must all rise up in one accord and Say No to Cultism with all our heart and soul and mind.

Enough is enough.

Adam09:
"Main camp" what a terrible place in the late 90s and early 2000.

Cult issues, threats and body counts and stampedes left, right and centre were the order of the day

jmaine:
Yeah. The current Deputy governor of Cross River State, Prof. Ivara Esu, was the VC then...

Dem expel people plenty oo.. Names were published weekly by Punch Newspapers on Wednesdays ...

Yah, Ivara Esu. Don't know where the man got the liver to do that that year.

jmaine:
Those days were brutal mehn! I remember in 2001after their final exams.. Na so people begin fly their colour, dey parade with guns for broad day light, dey salee, dey shoot for up...

Oboy, we come shock say all men for geology department be system men, and dem plenty for that department ... Even the ones wey we dey reason as worthy children of God...

I learnt to take the average Joe as a cultist on campus.. to avoid challenging death unknowingly....

A BAN friend of mine was exterminated by the SVC a few seconds after having a little chat with us.. As we take 4 steps like this, na gun shots.

We didn't know the guyz chilling 2 cars away were angels of death... They shot him point blank on his chest and casually walked away with No fear.. No rush.. No hazzle...

We later got to hear, he was a part of a hit the previous day and they had to take him out..

Was in Cali too back then and the flying of colours after final exams was crazy.

Saw the flying of colours in 2001. Their display that day in Main camp, very close to VC's office, was something else. Even their female counterparts were not left out of the celebration that day.

Many of them, including their top guns who led the flying, were rusticated afterwards. Don't want to mention names.

The most annoying part of this flying thing in Cali for me was the idiotic babes in Main camp and Club 89, who would hail and scream and hug and kiss the cultists like they were some movie stars. Smh. Nigeria don cast since.

A country without values or with misplaced ones like ours has no future.

We need to rebuild from scratch for this country to stand any chance.

temi4fash:
Bros...

Only a man of the spirit can understand this.

And it has nothing to do with the size of the church

Very true.

Ishilove:
This is where it gets tricky.

Yep, and it's one of the reasons why this aspect of Christianity gets a lot of bashing and criticism. There are issues of protocol, capacity, standards and integrity that still needs to be sorted out in order to separate the wheat from the chaff, the fake from the authentic, the powerless from the powerful.
