Munzy14: The process is longer and requires expertise judging from those older women in the rural Igbo settlement.
You have the brown seeds, you will cook for some minutes 20-30mins.
put down, allow to cool, peel off the seed coating.
Get a new razor blade, make straight lines of 5-7 on each seed u peel, then use a sharp knife and start slicing into the unique strands.
After this, boil again for 10-15minutes, sieve off the water, add cold water and wash very well to reduce or remove that bitter taste... Place in a sieve basket to strain out water... Then get the dry plantain leaves, to package and place in a dark warm corner for it to ferment for 4-7days.
Alas! your ugba is ready....
Idea gotten from grandma, before she died last year... I pick interest watching her perform ancient culinary few times I traveled home growing up. Incredible!  What a detailed explanation. Thank you so much. And u are a guy  Pls, I don't mind pursuing you  Are you single? |

OfoIgbo: You make me laugh. So "ts" is now the anchor of your point
There is ACHALA town in Anambra, which one can as well spell as ATSALA. I even have ACHALA village within my town. So that puts paid to this your line of argument.
Up until the 1960s, it was Nri priests that officiated in the coronation of any Obi of Onitsha. Nowadays, the process is carried out by an Onitsha person whose mother must hail from Nri.
Northcote W. Thomas (1910-1913), the government anthropologist published his work in 1913.
In his book Anthropological Report on the Igbo Speaking Peoples of Nigeria, Part I, he wrote:
"The Eze Nri, or King of Nri town otherwise known as Aguku, is a somewhat striking figure…
He is the spiritual potentate over a large extent of the Ibo country, and so great is the awe which he inspires that recently, when, probably for the first time in history, an Eze Nri entered the native court of Awka while a sitting was going on, the whole assembly rose and prepared to flee.”
So as you can see, Kings have always existed in Nri Even obi of onitsha dates back to 16th century with obi eze chima. By the way, you are arguing with the owner of this forum. He loves to use different monikers to incite igbo debate or igbo versus this that to attract traffic. Remove igbo related topics and this forum will die a natural death. |

PAGAN9JA: Wow! Interesting. That must be one of the few surviving old Mbari Shrines.
If you ever go there, do care to share with us some pictures and information you obtain from there. That would be helpful. I'm so far away from there. Actually, most of these shrines are well preserved in my place. All villages that made up my town has one. The most visited isn't in my village. Not long ago, I was reading some stuffs about my place and the names of these shrines were mentioned. New king begins his coronation from the shrine. Ofala, new yam festivals, nze title etc starts from the shrine. So much activities. That kindergarten school is still functioning with state paid teacher. It's called udo |

PAGAN9JA: They are highly intolerant and despicable. The abrahamic faiths. It is disgusting. They are directly or indirectly responsible for most of the problems plaguing the world today. Say that again. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Images From Igbo Traditional Religion (Odinani) by descarado: 8:05pm On Aug 24, 2020 |
PAGAN9JA: Good point. The makeshift Igbo shrines erected today have lost the essence because they don't utilize native craftsmanship and symbolism as the meanings and skills behind the carvings are forgotten although they still exist in the memories of elders and in colonial accounts.
So to revive them one must compile information from the elders before they pass away. It is of utmost importance. In cognisance with existing legitimate Dbias and interested youth.
Also our religious artefacts need to be brought back from foreign collectors for a closer thorough examination. There is one I have visited in my village as a kid( we usually fetch firewood at the back. Big thick forest). I can remember seeing some old women always sweeping that big shrine. Everywhere is carved. Those carvings reminded me of st Peter's basilica in Rome. There is one kindergarten hall built there outside the shrine. The artefacts in that shrine are still preserved till date. |

crackhaus: If she's not refusing you, then you have no problem YET... Keep initiating it
You can buy a sëx toy (specifically a vibrator), keep it hidden in a place only you can access. Whip it out on your next session without her knowledge, then use it to tease her (clìtoris & vagìna area) – don't stop until she begs you to have penetrative sex with her.
Is it not begging you're looking for? They always end up begging for penetration when the vibrator tease has reached astronomical levels... don't worry yourself, you don't have problem. U are finally free  Go and sin no more  This post just reminded me of a certain shop 2 of my female colleagues said I should pay a visit. That i should enter the inner room not the one meant for everybody and tell them what I saw and my choices  Gosh, I was blushing really hard  @topic, guy, u should continue to initiate it as that might be her turn on presently. Some have it the other way round. Husband is at his best when the wife initiates and ride him. As long as she is very willing and responsive, fire on. Maybe, in the heat of the show or as soon as she is back from heaven, chip that in. You will get your reply why she changed. |

At topic, from the pictures and the stories behind them, most religions have lots of things in common e.g. goddess of fertility. Though some are well hidden under different narration to make people accept they are not worshipping idol. Lol.

MISSCONGENIALITY: It's very annoying. Me sef I'm tired of meeting or getting to know new makes. They all want sex. I don't take any guy serious these days. It didn't start today. Even the days of our grandmothers. What u should aspire to do is be ahead of them with second option. If he is somebody u will want as a friend, yeah, u can stir the ship towards that. Everyman that took interest in you both those your close friends had at one point or the other fantasized about bedding you. Some relegate the thought to the back of their brain and maintain friendship pending on when opportunity knocks or just let it be and move on. That some men were outright with that doesn't tag them bad men, your response and actions after determines if he is the serious type, testing type or all weather type. So don't just stop cos some guys asked for sex first. That's what all of them wanted in the first place. Those that delayed where simply trying to make you soft pedal and to please you. The reason why even after 3 months of dating, once he collects, he is off and start hunting again. Learn the rules of the game and u won't burn. Men are very easy to read and understand. Just that ladies live on some fantasy land. |
