The problem isn't really with her relocating abroad, the problem is with her doing so via a fraudulently. If you really think that there's nothing wrong with what the lady did, then you need to question your values. Hope you won't bring up your children to be fraudulent individuals o. 🙄🙄

It all depends. They could have been hungry then but were not expecting how much they got. She said some even sent 500k. At that point, there were 2 options. 1.eat and beg tomorrow. 2. Utilize the funds judiciously which I think they did.

My problem was blocking the admin. She could have explained herself and they choice they made so they don't need to beg next time.

I think the whites need to be more careful in the way they handle these criminals in court during any kind of trial regardless of the weight of the crime because most of the times I see how loose they are with security when treating a case. Even the way the hardened criminals are allowed to freely express themselves in an odd manner leaves me wondering if this Whites really know what they are doing.

Criminals are not to treated nicely. They should be bundled up in court during trials because they are capable of anything. Once a criminal, always a criminal. Never to be underestimated.

Firstly, he's an accused in this case until sentenced,

Secondly, why is your attacked black focused as though whites are Angel's?

Rayzoom:
Haven't you heard of Obi of Nnewi? Obi of Ozubulu, my community is so large that we have up to 30 quarters and each of them have their own Obi who reports to the overall king, you need to travel to the so called core Igbo to get first-hand information and not on assumption.

I grew up in your so called core igbo. I think your major problem is understanding of the term kins.

Rayzoom:
This is another so called core Igbo Akwa ocha, now not my community, this is another community called Nimo, so stop saying what you're not sure of.

Oga, some of those are kins of enuani. The igalas in Anambra are no longer igalas because they are now in SE abi?

SoNature:
I like the way this government is taking this issue seriously.

If it was Buhari's tenure, nobody would even notice this scandal. Buhari was always shocked, surprised or didn't even know what was happening around him.

Dude was clueless and incompetent and still appointed people like him to run the government. I don't think anyone can be as bad as he was.

Comrade, off your mic.

For someone who doesn't miss a chance to label Muslims "dumb", this is beyond disgraceful.

How can a single post harbour so much ignorance

This is what this post says about you:

That you LIED about reading the Quran.
That you know NOTHING about Islamic history.
That you don't know the Muslim civilization spanning more than a millennium contributed immensely to science from which you still benefit today!
That the oldest university in the world was founded by Muslims.
That the only reason why you labelled ALL 2 BILLION+ Muslims worldwide as mentally weak is because you're a hopeless Islamophobe.

This is what the opening paragraph of Wikipedia (which is not particularly fond of Muslims) has to say about the Arab-Muslim civilization.

"The Islamic Golden Age was a period of scientific, economic and cultural flourishing in the history of Islam".

And you accuse the Qur'an of being behind your nauseous claim. 😂
It was indeed the Qur'an which fired the imaginations of the Arabs and pushed them to unimaginable limits.

When I read his post, I was shocked but since I have never read the Quran except excerpts unlike him that claimed to have read the entire book, I couldn't refute his claim.

nigeriansamurai:
yes cheaper i agree depending on what you want and your budget chinese companies can work with any reasonable budget unlike american companies that have fixed standards because of their regulations, you might be thinking of the grade of chinese products we have in Nigeria, but those class of products are what our importers want Chinese people are insanely crazily talented when it comes to crafting (i dont want to talk about my career online, but i am into machine designing and fabrication and have worked with a few chinese companies)... if the same chinese company is to produce... lets say a plate for 2 clients like American and Nigeria the two would be different due to budget and standard requirements... like i said when it comes to anything craftin bro put your money on the chinese. in fact asia

Spot on. What i wanted to point out is that it may not be better than what US may churn out. Americans are talented just that their labour laws won't allow you to take advantage of them unlike outside their chores.

nigeriansamurai:
O LAWD i will soon bite one girl!... China is a head of the US(in other words better than) in terms of industrial production... that was what i said. it doesnt imply that the US cannot make her own weapons and i wasnt even specific about weapons... what i mean is that the[b] Chinese are better than the US when it comes to manufacturing anything[/b]...

At bolded, wouldn't use the term better. I would say cheaper. The core reason US has been outsourcing productions is cheap labou outside US.

lanre316:
This particular thread is heavily populated by commenters who are USA-hating, Israel-hating, Russia-loving and Hamas-loving. They see nothing right with whatever USA or Israel does and nothing wrong with whatever Russia or Hamas does.

There are also those who fall into the other extreme. Biased towards the West and Israel.

Very few commenters here are neutral and fair in their assessment.

Know this and and know peace.

Ah!! You noticed too. The half truths and in some cases bare faced lies are amazing. When you point it out, they bare their fangs at you.

nigeriansamurai:
e doesnt matter brother the US cannot affort to back isreal, fight the houtis, back taiwan against China and then north korea. The allies of the US, NATO and EU are clearly not ready for war. war is still the most expensive human endeavour. dollar go suffer... they know this themselves

I agree even as priorities will be rearranged if there's an outbreak of war.

What I wanted to point out is that the outcome in Korean peninsula will be different and that is why Kim keeps threatening even America because war with republic of Korea will definitely drag definitely US and maybe RUSSIA in a global war.

I hope the tension in that peninsula is diffused ASAP.

nigeriansamurai:
One thing im certain of is, if the US decides to start active wars (deploying of troops not just funding) on various battle fronts simutenously they will suffer... All their enemies good and evil are coming together waiting to strike. their support for ukraine was a big economic burden from the start i remember a headline then said something "the US cannot afford to help ukraine" before the war started, it would be foolish for them to involve themselves with North korea and China. The US should seek stronger deplomatic actions this year. Rather than military actions because, they are weaker than they seem.

Hope you're aware that republic of korea is US military ally unlike Ukraine?

Happy new year.

Happy new year everyone

DrProf:
Fingers crossed

Almost. Let's share predictions.

Klinee:
That you wrote thesis on this does not substantiate how truthful your claims are.
Assuming all Anioma towns are of Bini' origin, the question you should have ask yourself before embarking on this research work is, how then do Anioma people, Asaba down to Agbor intelligibly speaks Igbo language and practice Igbo culture with zero atom of Benin culture or language even though they are proximal to Benin than the hinterland Igbos.
Onitsha to Agbor, with river Niger as a barrier is about 82km while Agbor to next Bini' town (Ogan or Abudu) is about 16km.
If true that all Anioma are of Benin origin I don't think that Agbor will be able to speak intelligible Igbo language, because of the far distance and also they have zero influence with the hinterland Igbos in the SE.
There so many assertions about the origin of Delta Igbos that are based on the foundation of lies. I think lies are being promulgated across these western Igbos in their quest to deny being Igbo especially from their educated one.
For example on this platform, a Delta Igbo boy called erniok in a quest to claim Bini' origin, claimed that 'Obi' and 'Diokpa' is a Bini words
and that it does not exist in SE Igbos. How true is that? Because I have stayed in Bini and when I compare Benin language and culture to that of Aniomas, they're not even 1% percent closely related to each other.
Then why all this claims which are all lies?

Stop telling lies, I never said diokpa is bini word. Screenshot where I said so. This proves that you tell lies in other to pass across a claim. I stated that diokpa as used by enu ani is very different from diokpala/diokpara and you claimed otherwise and can't prove anything. I also stated that the enu ani take the obi title unlike SE that take a different title.

It's obvious you did not read his thesis because he stated clearly that otal tradition stated that one of the founders has to go to benin to get kingship. This is oral tradition like mine which I stated may be flawed.

Klinee:
I think I have exhausted all my explanation to you, I still wonder why it's difficult for you to assimilate.
I am trying to explain to you that Diokpa or Diokpala means the same thing in every parts of Igbo land where it's being used, being it in SE or ANIOMA.
Diokpa is short form of Diokpala, it's all the same.
That I called a young man "mpa" does that mean that the young man is my father?
But the actually meaning of "mpa" is father.
I knew and have better knowledge of ANIOMA people far more than you are, because I lived there for years and they are directly opposite to my village.
Do you know how the word Enuani comes about?
We the riverine people along the river Niger coast of both Anambra and Delta classified every villages along the river Niger coast that are upland as Ndi Enuani comprises of Asaba, Ugbolu, Okpanam, Illa EBU even Onitsha and some parts Anambra, which am very sure that your hinterland villages are not originally part of Enuani because you hinterland villages does really have much interaction with us, the riverines. But your people went and adopted it as your identity even trying to exonerate the original Enuani people out of it.
We do have symbiotic interaction with Enuani people because we go there to get yam seedlings while they come to us for matured yams and fishes.
EBU speak both Igala and Igbo language just like my village we speak both Igala and Igbo language but we're in Anambra state.
I'm just trying to explain things that you don't know but keep arguing blindly.

Actually, you are the one arguing blindly on the diokpa issue. You claim the term is used loosely in igbo land and I asked to mention an area in SE they call their elders diokpa and I'm yet to get response from you. You also claim the mean same which I have shown that they are not same. Calling a man younger than you in a clan meeting is an aberration of tradition.

You claim to know enuani more than I do maybe incorrect else the oldest man in my clan told a lie then

All the back and.forth changes nothing. You may be right and I'm wrong but till I see a superior arguement which you are yet to provide, I choose to go with what I heard from the oldest man in my clan who is late.

PS: are you from igbedor?

Yujin:
So, you can't see the similarity between both? Can you call a woman 'Diokpa'? Do the Binis have a word called Diokpa? Do you even know the etymology of the word Di-Okpa?
I'm very ashamed to hear someone whose whole culture, language, custom etc points to a great nation but prefers to be a lowly appendage of a faded empire who most likely incorporated his territory by alliance.
Tufiakwa! It reeks of inferiority complex.
I have never seen any edoid speaking group celebrate Bini they way you Igbo speakers of Issele Ukwu do. Ezechima will be reeling in the grave. I wonder why you people call him Ezechima. Why not call him a Bini name since you people claim to be Bini people?
It is a huge shame. Pls, you guys should hurry up and drop the Igbo language you speak and adopt Bini language fast.
Tufia!!!!

Similarities are not same meaning oga. There are yoruba words that sound igbo. Does that make them same?

Your rantings changes nada. Igbos, in a study I read back then, were shown to have migrated from CAR. How true is the study is debatable. The igalas in Anambra west LGA speak igbos fluently possibly due to commerce. Would you then claim tomorrow that they are igbos?

Truth is migration and trades in the past has affected so much of a people's tradition. If my tradition point to a certain place, do I choose another place to please folks like you?

Klinee:
For the fact that you said that Diokpa has nothing to do with Diokpala showed that you knows nothing about your traditions or maybe you are still a small boy.
Why can't you go and consult your elders before coming here to argue.
An elderly man or even any male person can be called Diokpa in Igbo land but that is not the actual meaning of Diokpa.
Diokpa or Diokpala means the eldest son of the village (Diokpa of the village), the eldest son of the clan(Diokpa of the clan), the eldest of family (Diokpa of the family).
Diokpa is fully pronounced as Diokpala, it also means Obi.
female can never answer Diokpa nor Obi

It's better you talk about your village that claimed Bini' origin.
There are many villages in Enuani or that claimed Igala origin even far more than that of Bini', few examples are . Asaba, Okpanam, Illa, Obumkpa, and few others, you can research about it.
Not every ANIOMA towns speaks Igbo language there are Igala speaking part of ANIOMA which EBU is one and some yorubaoid too, like UGBODU.

Any male in igbo can be called diokpa you say. So I can assume you call your juniors diaokpa. In my place, it is not allowed. FYI, SE call their elders ndi ichie and not diokpa. If I'm wrong quote an area in SE that use diokpa.

Illas have few igala roots. Don't make it look as if they are directly from igala pls. I hope you know Ebu is not considered part of enuani?

Klinee:
So in ANIOMA an elderly woman can be called Diokpa? By this reasoning am sure you are still a small boy who hasn't understand the traditional dynamic in your village.

We are talking about males here. By the way, you are yet to let me know how you derived your 3% statistics.

ogododo:
Make una wake me when it don become N1 to $1.

No allow the sleep of death hold you if na wetin go wake you up.

Yujin:
What is the difference between diokpa and diokpala?

Diokpala or diokpara is first born son but in anioma, diokpa is accorded to either an elder or one who is your senior. You may not even be related in any way.

PlayMaker14:
Leave that drunkard

Onowu Nwanne. Good to meet a brother here.

Klinee:
Am not here to argue rubbish, I am not against your histories of people's origin. There are some ANIOMAs that came from Igala, Binis,Ijaw but honestly large percent are of Igbo origin.
ANIOMAs don't need to copy anything, all their culture activities are all Igbo, I can authoritative tell you that, from burial ceremony, marriage ceremony and all other festivities. Even those that of Bini' or Igala origin, they have completely lost their original cultural heritage far back in ancient days , showing Queen Idia image or wearing of Oba of Bini regalia does not represent the true contemporary culture of these people.
Iyase is not common to all ANIOMA towns, Iyase is found only in about 3% towns in ANIOMA and then also in Onitsha, Anambra.
The Binis greet laweyi eze does it mean that Binis are Igbo?

So is it the Binis that own Obi system? So Obi is a Bini' word?
The Igbos practice Obi system before the emergent of Igwe. Obi system is actually classified as Diokpa or Diokpala system where the eldest man in the village automatically become the leader of the village.
There is also Obi for sub villages even to the immediate family, the eldest son is Obi and the eldest daughter is Ada.
Obi system is very common in whole Igbo land including ANIOMA towns, though some village have corrupted it by making it hereditary, appointment or by elective which is not the true representation of Obi system.
Igwe is warrant chief appointment in Igbo land by the whites during colonial era, the word "Igwe oo" comes into play as results of the money they spray in atmosphere (Igwe).
So when people shout "Igwee oo" it means they want those warrant chiefs to spray the atmosphere with money so that people will pick.
But culture is dynamic, today those warrant chiefs are now the traditional head in most villages and they're now being called Igwe.
Eze means king in Igbo language but Eze-ship is not a common practice initially in Igbo culture.

Aniomafrom igala and jaw? please I'll like to know those from igala and I jaw.

Benin greeting does not sound igbo unless you can prove a particular area that has similar greetings. For the fact that some yoruba or hausa word does sound like igbo word does not make them igbo.

On your 3% that take inyase title, how did you come about this figure or you simply pull figures from the air.

Diokpa has absolute nothing to do with diokpala. Please note this. If in doubt, ask any anioma person. Stop confusing yourself.

The bolded is absolute rubbish. Prove it if not. You are talking to someone to grow up in Aba, faulks road. Do not think you are talking to one who does not know omenala.

PS: you are the one actually arguing rubbish, denying facts even when it is obvious. I'm an enu ani person and there are oral histories that are passed down from generation to generation. You can't know a people more than themselves.

Klinee:
Most them are just trying to copy what ever they see in Oba of Bini' palace, if you go to Issele uku or Ubulu uku, there is zero atom Benin affiliation there.

The questipn for you is why copy bini and not core igbo? Why is there an iyase title amongst ani-oma igbo and same is not seen in core ala-igbo. Why obi and not eze or igwe as seen amongst igbos?

koning:
Why was it not a touch of Onitsha/Nri IGBO. They are Igbos.

Stop seeing everything through your Edo glasses. Those beads are worn in entire Igboland for centuries. The Igbo tribe extends to as far away as Gabon.

So it was only thr beads you saw? Those ebens they raised, you were blind to them or the attires. FYI, core igbos do not wear plain white attires.
