Crime / Re: Soldier Slaps Woman Into Coma At Banex & Takes Her Away by Donake: 10:54pm On May 21
It's the desert approach to civilization. It's unfortunate you were merged with the madness...

Let them go and slap in Borno state and see how far. These are soldiers who abandon thier barracks and flee like wildebeasts running away from a pack of raving mad hyenas whenever they hear rumor that boko haram boys want to turn up.

E reach civilian body now dem dey get muscle. And on what grounds is banex plaza shut down? Which court made that pronouncement? Nigerian army can't engage in lawlessness and still act as agents of maintaining law and order.

Politics / Re: ’40’ Shot Dead As Bandits Sack Plateau Community by Donake: 10:44pm On May 21
Nothing stops the LGA arming the vigilantes with sophisticated iron so they match jungle when it meets jungle. The reason Nnamdi kanu was hated is foreseeing these and mercilessly defeating the, in the bushes. Plateau were warriors and 1billion Usman Dan fodios didn't conquer in 1845,e come be now eyes open??
Politics / Re: Governor Fubara Presents List Of Commissioner Nominees To Rivers State Assembly by Donake: 10:39pm On May 21
I will tell you for free Hausa or fulfude hasn't imparted on kanuri because it wasn't conquered in the first place. Elkanemi already had foreknowledge and interactions with the Arabs before Adama Modibbo attempted that Borno,Taraba,Adamawa,Bauchi,Gombe axis without making much progress.

There is a difference between influence and complete similarity and total oneness.

Have you asked why these places in Rivers not only bear names but say the same thing like Chineke,Chiokike,Chukwu,Eze is king,Market days I know in places in Emuoha call them explicitly Eke,Orie,Afor,Nkwo,Call tradition omenala,call road uzo,Call first daughter ada,Son okpara,Blood as obara,Twins Ejima,Call weaning a baby as omugwo and you say this influence of language. If it influenced your language what about the culture of respecting eke market day as sacred not to celebrate?

Should I go on and on? After the civil war,the ijaws went on a stifling mission in the state the reason many of you denounced been igbos for fear of political and civil service annihilation. Files were hidden,thrown away during upgrade because you were igbos to them at the time.

Stop deceiving yourselves. Asides Ogonis and some ijaw LGAs,the rest people speaking varying dialects and accents like we have in other states are igbos.

Matter closed.
idahme:





The Igbos have done a lot of stuff with Rivers people over the years for example a town called Opobo their first king was a slave from an Igboland who found himself loyal to the powers that be, this town speaks igbani but because of their ancestry with the Igbos right from that slave(king Jaja) they began to deal in the language of their king not in their indigenous ijaw language leading to the IBANI language becoming endangered as we speak.

This relationship might now lead people answering Igbo names because their ancestors have been picking brides from the Igbo tribe for hundreds of years, does this men they are from the Igbo tribe even if they speak and answer their names? This is the situation of some places in Rivers State

In addition, the Igbo language has been taught in schools as one of the three major languages in Nigeria while non of the Rivers languages were taught to students in so doing speakers of Igbo language increase, does it mean they are from Igbo tribe? Another thing I observed is that the Igbo Bible and hymn has been there for a very long time, these were forced on the throat of rivers people while in church. I could remember when the Igbo hymn were sang in a church that has no Igbo indigenous people. All of these has its own effect on the culture of minorities in Rivers State.

Just the way you can't differentiate an hausa man from a kanuri man in the North by virtue of one been the domineering ethnicity is same way it is here but indigenous people can.

These arguments of the Igbo tribe didn't hold waters, that a person has been influenced by your tribe for a long time doesn't mean they are from your tribe.

Remember Jaja wasn't born in Opobo kingdom, he was a slave who happened to accend because of how he placed himself. Opobo has been there long before Jaja was convinced....This is the reason people are weary about entertaining the Igbos, your great grand children will still tow your language of I happen to give you a parcel of land in my kingdom.

Politics / Re: Governor Fubara Presents List Of Commissioner Nominees To Rivers State Assembly by Donake: 10:21pm On May 21
Who are these igbos sef? Is it the same Ikwerre,omuma,etched,oyigbo,ahoadaeast and west,ogba/egbema/ndoni that sell four market days eke,orie,afor,nkwo or those who call God Chineke,or those who call debt igwo,or human as mmadu,obara as blood? Otu,abuo(ibuo)(buo) ato(ito)(to) depending on who is pronouncing just as the difference is evident in the place the fulanis and their slaves carved into 5 states.
All of these narrative started during and after the civil war,but igbos know themselves.
Those who have travelled know they are igbo no matter how they have bended their knees.
Their kings are called Ezes from Obioakpor,Ikwerre,Emuoha,Phalga,OgbaEgbemaNdoni,Omuma,Etched,Ahoada East and West,
zicky:
I'm not interested in the opobo, ikwerre story of how they're or not Igbo. What I was saying it that you can't tell the lga of those igbo-like names there without knowing them before now. Obio akpor, ikwerre, onelga, opobo even in eleme you can find those names.

In 2016/2017 some toddler encroached his wife perhaps to assist wike surmount the supreme court challenge against APC then,in 1999/2000 they did same thing to assist wike as chairman obio/akpor council yet became one man and one woman suddenly. I dont think this writer knows the structure odili built and has in rivers.

Family / Re: Married Nigerian Ladies No Longer Take Shit From Their Husbands (Pictures) by Donake: 8:56pm On Apr 10
Its because established men dont want to take more than one wife. Once men have 4wives anyone can leave.

This copy and paste culture by westernization isnt working here and wont work. Men should get not less than 3wives as two isnt healthy. Get three wives and see the home grow. Everyone would be in a healthy competition.

It's a very good idea to portray the state of bad roads in the country especially by a northerner but I hope not much would happen when a southerner goes to picture the insecurity and poverty in that region?

Politics / Re: Igbos Can Only Get Presidency Through APC – Ex-Senator, Utazi by Donake: 1:18pm On Apr 02
Who is talking about tribal and religious fanatical campaign. Who did o against Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour in lagos in lagos? Stop the stupidity and stay off drugs.
YesDaddyTill203:
Pure rubbish.

Igbos can win the Presidential election with any party. The igbos just needs a credible, none tribalistic and definitely not a Yes Daddy religious fanatical fool like Obi.
More importantly is that the candidate should be considered based on their merit not because they are Igbo or any other tribe. Umahi,Soludo and others have good records that they can run on.
Obi doesn't have a good record to run except trying to run a tribal and religious fanatical campaign.

Celebrities / Re: Gift Okpara (2Baba) Shot Dead In Rivers State by Donake: 9:17pm On Feb 19
The good news is it came from the police. The sad news is joblessness and entitlement mentality keeps criminality and cultism going in Rivers. Only if they adopt and finally concede defeat they are Igbos and hustle like one instead of been received by stories and deceit.

I can make more than a hundred words between Igbo and Ekpeye(connotes by the fulanis),let's forget the names they bear.

The similarities are Ugwo is debt,Obara mmadu is human blood,Ada is first girl child,Eze is king,Ekpere is prayers,Efere is plate,Eluigwe is the heavens,Eka is hand,ODU is tail. Ukwo is leg,Eke is a sacred market day,Uka is truth,Uche is sense or mind,etc so the earlier they wake up to the reality Nigeria is not for them,the better it is for them....

You better drop such mentality, people like you are the reason our leaders take us for granted, being a first lady doesn't mean she's above me, we elected them to serve us, they are our servants and not the other way round.

Mind you, I have a lot of respect for the office of the president and first lady.
