I think whoring came with the oyinbo !

Yes, everything you don't like came with the oyibo; stealing came with the oyibo, corruption came with the oyibo, war came with the oyibo, even sex came with the oyibo.

Ikengawo:
You're an Igbo man who has "Sokoto Empire II" under his name and im suppose to take you seriously lol?
my father's a politician, you're father is a palm wine tapper lol useless

So are you saying that it's true that you're securing your trust fund, or do you lack the mental agility to reply properly? I don't know, let me know.

sjeezy8:
^^^ yea so maybe we should split Nigeria into 250 countries.

There is something called a dominant culture, most countries in the world that are successful have one regardless of smaller ethno-cultural groups, e.g England. Are each of those 250 groups really ethnicity's or are they clans? How many of those groups are more than 100,000?

sjeezy8:
Ezeagu - their populations are small of course they would be better. We are talking about naija 150million people soon to be 180 million.

That's an excuse I don't necessarily find true, but we can't compare to anyone because Nigeria is the biggest Sub-Saharan African country. If you ask me Botswana and Equatorial Guinea are doing the best in Sub-Sahara Africa because of their monoculture and language.

Sun of god:
"you have to be corrupt to get ahead anywhere in the world, and im not doubting that"

And you said your father is a politician?

His father is a politician? So that's what all these 'patriotic' threads popping up like boils are for! To think I thought these threads were out of ignorance of Nigerian issues, not knowing somebody is merely trying to protect their trust fund!

sjeezy8:
Nigeria is far more ahead than anyother african country aside- from SA, and maybe Ghana.
Out of 53 countries in Africa Nigeria is number 2 lol

When you say Africa, you probably mean Sub-Sahara, so even in that case Nigeria is still not number 2, Botswana and Equatorial Guinea have better Human Development Index's than Nigeria, even Djibouti, Uganda and Haiti have better HDI's.

RoadStar:
igbos and their siege mentality !

It's a joke that you see yourself worthy to dish out generalizations.

tensor777:
^^
I would not generalize like that. We are talking about a few extreme right-wing reactionaries here hiding under the anonyminity of the internet to spread their neo-fascist ideology.

As far as I can see you are also hiding under anonymous, and your country is not developed enough to have any sort of 'wing'.

babaearly:
In Bini Ikwere means Someones dirt while Igbo means Slave.i see how it all plays out.

Yes, it plays out that you should leave Port Harcourt, very, very quick.

All I can say to the three posters above is fuel + fire. . .

sjeezy8:
the ijaws are calling for homogenous ijaw states to be made out of rivers, awka ibom, cross river

Could you please name some Ijaw settlements in Akwa Ibom and Cross River?

sjeezy8:
(iv)       ABAJI STATE with Port Harcourt Township as Capital City and demarcated into Port Harcourt Township, Obolo, Bolo, Ogu, Okrika, Ogoloma, Isaka, Bonny, Kalaibiama, Iniasiri, Opobo, Nkoro, Agbo, Amaiba, Amajaaba, Oka, Okoromita, Okosun, Okuba, Okwaan-Aja, Okwaan-Okuka, Oru and Ujama Local Government Areas.

Port Harcourt is Igbo, if you don't beliive me ask Rumu[b]igbo[/b] and Rumu[b]ibekwe[/b]. I guess you were looking at [url=http://www.ijawfoundation.org/Ijaw%20States.jpg]this map.[/url]

Salvie:
let's face it, if native igbos wanted out of nigeria, they would have long left.

You need to be a comedian.

adconline:
Tribal bigots are only supporting Nzeribe because he's of Igbo stock, same bigots whine whilst accusing the Hausa's of breeding kleptomaniacs. This is a joke right
Ever wondered why he lost his senatorial seat? Ever wondered why he was suspended in the Senate even when his kinsman was at the helm of affairs in the Senate? Nzeribe is a political cancer that should avoided at all cost. The only man who terrorized OBJ to the point that he OBJ admitted that the lowest moment of his presidency was when he faced impeachment.

Oh please, as if you don't do the same, infact you did exactly what you are accusing in this very post.

Not being biased but only like 10% and less of Port Harcourt land is non Igbo.

Fhemmmy:
That is not the dream, but that is what is happening

Nah, that is the dream; that was what Gowon was fighting for.

Yeah, and the Bini and Igbo look similar as well, hmm . . . . . . . .

[size=28pt]Yeah! Lets act surprised again![/size]

krispavkov:
Pls, can someone tell me what 'On ye m huru na aya i ka na raraula biko kuln na awa gi.' means in igbo language?

Onye m huru na a[n]ya I ka na . . . . .

thats all I can understand and it means My love you're still. . . . . .

9jaganja:
I won't believe that. Age of Aquarius could also mean flooding. Remember Aquarius is always pouring water. And according to constellations, it rains alot during his time of the year. I'm excited about 2012 but I will not go with just one theory about the date.

The age of aquarius lasts for hundreds of years. . . . . .

[quote author=Azuka.O link=topic=402648.msg5662099#msg5662099 date=1268208809]Ify, I said it in one of my posts above: All traditional institutions in Nnewi are hereditary (by the first son). Any day the current Igwe dies, WHOEVER is his first son at the time of his death automatically becomes the next Igwe. If the current Igwe has no male child at the time of his death, his immediate younger brother becomes the Igwe. If none of his brothers is alive, the eldest of his nephews becomes the Igwe. That is the way it is for all the Obi of all the umunna, villages and 4 quarters of Nnewi.[/quote]Were there no queens?
