PoliticsRe: Is The South West Really That Bigger Than South East? by derealj(op): 1:14pm On Dec 03, 2017
Mynd44:
Stress. By landmass, the entire SE will conveniently fit into Oyo state.

The entire SW minus Lagos will enter Niger state.
I know the south west is larger than the east but I doubt that statement. Travel to the East and find out yourself. And am currently in the Almighty Oyo state self.

The entire 6 states in South East is about the size of only Oyo State in SW

Oga see the facts at hand. If that's true then why is the distance between their four Cardinal points almost the same??
PoliticsIs The South West Really That Bigger Than South East? by derealj(op): 12:48pm On Dec 03, 2017
There has been a lot of argument on the size of South west in relation to that of South East and some claim that Oyo alone is bigger than the whole south east. Let me say that someone people who make this claim in the west have never left Yorubaland but as An easterner who have traversed the east and to a large extent the west, I know how long I spent on the way. So let's make some comparisons from Google Map.

From Lagos the southern most part of the west to Kishi the northern most part is 367km and takes 6hr 7mins to drive between the two.
From Akwete the southern most part of the East to Ete the northern most part is 291km and takes 5hr 25mins to drive between them.
From Lagos still the western most part of the west to Ifon the eastern most part is still 367km and it takes 5hr 4mins to drive thru them.
From Ogbaru the western most part of the East to Iboko the eastern most part is 246km and takes 4hr 30mins to drive between the two points .
So brethren the West might be bigger than the East but I don't think it's that much.

There is what we call "NDAGBA MYIRIUDAUME" in Igbo language. 'N' and 'm' do not go together in a word. The correct spelling is Chidimma, and not chidinma

TravelRe: Lies Of Nigerians Living In America by derealj(m): 7:17pm On Oct 29, 2017
Some people are trying to make America look bad but I just want to make something clear, Just as Nigeria has high and low brow areas so does America. You can't compare the standard of living in Chicago or NYC to that of somewhere in Wisconsin. If you want to save money, you gats leave all those Las Vegas razz and find somewhere you can actually do. And I know some people who stay in America, UAE and even China and what they can do. So stop trying to make Nigeria look better than America it can never be.

Who made you the Judge to determine what is correct and what's not correct and against which standard?

Land (English) = Lande (German)
Oritsefemi (Itsekiri)= Orisafemi (Yoruba)
Orisha/Osaa (Yoruba)= Olise (Ika)= Orisa/Ossa (Edo) = DEITY/ God

That's why
Osakwe = Orisakwe
Olisadebe = Osadebey and

Oliseh ( Ika)= Olisa( Igbo)...none is superior to the other, just normal variant.


Omawumi( Itsekiri)= Omowumi (Yoruba)
Oritsejafor (Itsekiri)= Orisajenfo (Yoruba)
Eyituoyo (Itsekiri)= Eyitayo (Yoruba)

Ewu (Igbo)= Ewure (Yoruba)
Akpati(Igbo)= Apoti (Yoruba)
Okwuta (Igbo)= okuta (Yoruba)
Onu (Igbo)= Enu (Yoruba)
Umu (Igbo)= Rumu (Ikwerre) = Omo (Bini)= Omo(Yoruba)= Oma (Igala).

1) Sir, which of these languages is an adulterated form of the other?

2) Some igalas can understand some Yoruba dialects by 50% and
Itsekiri is partly mutually intelligible with some Yoruba dialects ,yet you won't hear Yoruba accusing the Itsekiris of Language theft as some igbos like to accuse Ikwerres.

#Lesson-1: Almost all the tribes in Southern Nigeria and middle belt are related than many (especially tribalists) know or willing to acknowledge.

#Lesson-2: These relationship may mean we are 'siblings', not necessarily 'Parents-and- children'

Your assertion that Igbo language has always remain what has always been show you don't understand linguistics at all because no language remain static and all languages emerge from previously existing languages.
The Yoruba Bible was written in Yoruba language that was spoken about 200 years ago but today, many Yoruba can't even read it.
You will require special dictionary to read original Shakespeare ,written in medieval English ,spoken about 500 years ago and they are many words we speak now that are absent in that variant of the language.
In summary, all languages evolve and continue to evolve
If you want me to believe all these long fairy tale you have written, then show me A full blooded Igbo man that answers Olawale or Zakary,or a Yoruba man that answers Okonkwo if not hold your rubbish and unfounded theory to yourself.

oyatz:
This is a classical display of a dangerous blend of arrogance and ignorance.
1) All over the world ,related languages have similarities and variation in their pronunciations and does not mean, one language is an adulteration of the other e.g hospital (English)= hopital (French), Wilhelm (German)= William (English), Louis (French)= Louis (English), Night (English)= Nacht (German).

2) If two or more languages are related, it doesn't necessarily, mean the language with the less speakers (population) descended from the language with the more speakers (population), the reverse may even be the case e.g its possible Igbo language descended from Ekpeye, Ogba or Ikwerre Languages or all the sister Igboid languages descended from a common ancestral language which is now extinct.

Igbo kwenu,
Nigeria Kwenu!
Thrash talk. Amaechi and Tonto Dikeh that answers theirs correctly nkor? They know what they are doing and is in no way connected to what u are saying. And FYI Igbo has always been Igbo and didn't descend from any language. Also Louis is and will always be of French origin and never English. Go figure.
PoliticsRe: The Loud Minority Vs The Silent Majority In South-south: A Look At Biafra Call by derealj(m): 6:26pm On Jul 14, 2017
When America wanted to conduct elections, someone elements were making noise all over the net that Trump can never win and that they Support Clinton. The noise was so overwhelming that even some clergies went along with them. I too was even convinced that Trump had no choice. But at the end of the day, we all know how that turned out. This scenario thought me something about the Silent majority . Some Elements in the Niger Delta can make noise all they want but they never know the mind of the people. It's only when it boils down to referendum that we can know, then they can pack their loads and go back to Nigeria when they finally vote Biafra. And for those clamouring for NDR, I think Biafra is more realistic to me, so if u want to do away with Nigeria anytime soon, Biafra is the answer.

It confuses you because you are not well read and do not even know the history of your own country. If you had an iota, you'd understand how the "South South" and "Niger Delta" regions came to be, and why they were created to further confuse Nigerians.
Excuse me I didn't in any way suggest to you that am confused. It's just your confused brain that is making you think that.

People of the so called "Niger Delta" are the most confused set of people in Nigeria, but am not even in the mood for their shenanigans. I have only one thing to beg you people, it is enough that some of you chose to answer Igbo names while claiming non Igbo. Fine but if you want to answer those names answer it correctly not the adulterated forms in your bid to transform our names into another thing. Answer Nwogbo not Wobo( it even sounds like zobo). It's Ezenwa not Ezenwo. Answer Nwanne not Wene( don't know if it's short for Wednesday ). That's all I want to say., if you people cannot do this please answer names from your tribe ( If it exists ) or you can go and adulterate Yoruba names and answer(Take a cue from one minister from that region ).
