I use to walk around this Yonge & Dundas when I was schooling in Toronto. One of the busiest place in all of Toronto

Dshocker:
I don't understand you

No wedding supercedes traditional marriage.

Mom007:
You want to marry a wife in court without marrying her first traditionally? Are you a thief? That is how you young people always incur curses on yourselves while thinking you are smart. I am all for jettisoning white weddings... its a waste of funds in my opinion but go and settle her family and village as tradition requires and stop playing with deep things. Even the bible says give cesear's due to cesear and God's dues to God.
Dear ladies, avoid baby mama fever and avoid any man who tries to marry you in court without going to settle your family! He is a thief and a thief's lot will befall him and you too, eventually! Let who has ears, hear.

So to hell with our African heritage, right?

Samantha124:
We are Africans and traditional wedding is part of who we are.

What about traditional wedding?

Hello everyone. I learnt one can take the G test after passing G1 test if one has the extract . I would like to know what happens if one fails the G test cos I learnt one can only do it once. Does this mean they have to go for the G2 and wait for a year to attempt again?

I would appreciate a response, thanks a lot in advance

Yujin:
Can you say exactly what was wrong with Ojukwu's orders to Banjo about Yoruba land at the time given the fact that the foremost Yoruba leader-Awolowo, painted the picture that Yorubaland could not protect itself from the north?
Earlier, Ojukwu had tried helping Yorubaland by asking that all soldiers leave their regions of posting and returning back to their regions of origin which Gowon rejected.
The West had no military leader after Fajuyi was killed by the northern coup plotters. So, Ojukwu sending Banjo with Biafran soldiers and resources for the liberation of Yorubaland was subject to him being able to know those who he could trust to run the affairs of the land.
This is how a person without prejudice will interpret his letter. However, most of you will always view Ojukwu and other Igbos with prejudice.
Ever since you lots have taken that stance of hating on Igbos, has Nigeria fared any good? In fact, that stance is the reason for the death of Nigeria. The same people your people chose to hate have continued to prosper yet you can't change your position against them.

In the same letter, Ojukwu clearly told him to remember that Biafrans were friends with Yorubas and so, care must be taken to reduce acts of violence to the barest minimum with the lowest of casualties. Compare that with Benjamin Adekunle saying that they will shoot at anything that moves in Igboland. This summarizes how Igbos took Yorubas back in the days and how Yorubas started to hate Igbos back in the days.

Lastly, do you know it was Adekunle that formed the 3rd Marine Commando without official directive and led mostly Yoruba soldiers into the war even before Biafran army led by Banjo moved close to Yorubaland? Don't just believe me... research on it yourself and prove me wrong by responding to my claim on this post. I'm expecting your response.

lastkingsman:
Again, you are still buttressing my point. It was a needless war but the reason why it happened was because it was termed "an igbo coup".

Nobody called it a "military coup" or "Kadnuna Nzeogwu's coup". It was an "perfect opportunity" for the Nigeria state to exterminate the igbo race.

Why not target Nzeogwu/Ojukwu/the actors and kill them?

Why must 3 million people die and their collect wealth and social capital destroyed because of this?

And why we are at it my people were already being killed before 1966. (1. Jos 1945
2. Kano genocide 1953) and after 1970.

The whites get away with a lot of things that don't make sense because they're the ones who make the rules and write the books. What the hell is "Stiff person syndrome"? Just say you don't know what is wrong with the person.

LOVEALAIGBO:
You’re now embellishing facts to suit your anti-Igbo agenda! Biafra was not losing any war! What happened was that your eminently evil Nigerian side saw they were losing on the battlefield and decided to take up Awos’ idea of economic and food blockade….a war crime punishable by DEATH! With the benefit of hindsight…..especially when you’re not facing the real threat of a enemy that wants to exterminate your entire ethnicity given half a chance, it’s easy to sit in the comfort of your home and declare when Ikemba and Biafra should have surrendered…even right down to the day and hour you reckon is best! You were not the one making life-and-death decisions, and remember Ikemba was in his mid thirties at the time! If i have any suggestion i could have given him, it would have been to pursue the international diplomatic channel as much as the military option, and be prepared to offer sweeteners and concessions for any help or recognition of Biafra received from countries that matter: like the US, France and then USSR! Forget the UK as they had selfish economic and imperialist motives for wanting to keep Nigeria as is!

Where did you get your information that Ahmadu Bello was ‘mocked’ in death!? By whom and where did this happen? Any links to books articles of independent/international observers at the time to help corroborate your assertion!?

This is why i say we are just not suited to sharing the same country! Another 6 decades from now, that is if Nigeria survives it, Ndigbo would still be hearing your kinsfolk put out these ‘justifications’ for why they despise Ndigbo and wish us death…and why we’re not entitled to the presidency and equal treatment/share of Nigerias’ resources as the Fulani and Yoruba are getting!

lastkingsman:
This is the problem I have with Nigerians. Politicians and military officers (as of then) will commit atrocities then an entire ethnicity group will bear the brunt.

What was the objective of calling it an "igbo coup"? "Give a dog a bad name and kill it"

Well, 3 million of my people massacred, our collective wealth and social capital destroyed over actions of power hungry and zealous officers.

Well, to answer you question, you are not a fool. Oya, run along.

shortgun:
How can the 1966 coup which had;
2 Igbo military officers
4 Yoruba military officers
And
2 northern officers
be termed an Igbo coup?
When did 4 became greater than 2?

Isn't the coup supposed to be a Yoruba coup since they are more in number?

All seems to escape death or were not in the country . Then an igbo man take over. Are we fools
