Abagworo:
Some parts of Igbo have Benin influence but Ikwerre has zero Benin influence. Ikwerre society was kingless and lacked the Benin monarchical society.

In the East only Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni/Oguta/Onitsha/Ogbaru areas have Benin influence. Their origin if we must use what I know from my people is from a place known as Ado n'Idu inhabited by Igbos but at the fringe of Benin territory. Most of these tales are illogical but I have been able to deduce that Igbos were actually part of warriors in Benin but later fell out with a wicked Oba which led to an exodus towards the East. On their way back they realised other Igbos had already occupied some areas but many settled along the way while others moved on and crossed the Niger ferried by Ijaw sailors who joined the expedition. These Ijaw people and some Benin loyalists joined the Igbos to form the Igbo speaking peoples inhabiting today's Aboh, Kwale, Ogba, Egbema and Oguta. Onitsha, Ndoni and Ogbaru people were ferried by Igala men who equally became part of them. Igbo language has always been the language of all these Niger River Igbos right from Ado n'Idu era.

I called my friend from OGUTA, and he confirmed your story as fact

PassingShot:
Silly illiterates!

This news has been reported here before and we pointed out your idiocy then.

1st, second quarter represents April, May and June.

Jona was in charge for the greater part of that quarter (two of three months).

Lastly, the report only tells a slow down in job creation in comparison with previous performance. It's clearly not that there have been job losses as some half baked here are making it seem.

More importantly, a slow down in job creation is a feature of all new governments as they use their first few months to chart a new direction for their regime. The fact that Nigeria was practically in comatose makes our own case worse.

Get quality education instead of wasting away your life wailing.

How can first quarter be April, May, June... Can you explain what you mean. How can Jona be in charge for two of the three months... So quarter is no longer 4.

BTW I never knew you APC fanatics, would one day acknowledge that, PEJ ever performed.

However, when
compared with 1st quarter of the year when 332,403 new
jobs were created, an alarming 74.8 percent decrease in
jobs was recorded.

APC! CHANGE

Pastor Adeboye: “The Richest Man in the world"
By Femi Aribisala

“I have houses in at least 188 countries in the world, so I am
richer than Bill Gates.” (Adeboye).

Recently, a friend took me to the jewel-in-the-crown of the
Redeemed Christian Church of God; a glitzy parish called
“City of David” in Victoria Island, Lagos. Displayed
resplendently on a wall in the church-office is a design of
their current building project; a 14 storey architectural
extravaganza titled “Trinity Towers.”
Is Redeemed still a church or is it now essentially a business concern? The Trinity Towers project shows the
lines are now totally blurred. Jesus warns:
“No one can
serve two
masters. You
cannot serve
both God and
Money.” (Matthew 6:24). Nevertheless, this Tower of
Babylon being built with church funds is designed both for
the worship of God and for the worship of money.
The project is an appeal to crass commercialism; a blatant
celebration of wealth. In this poverty-stricken Nigeria, the
foundation of the building alone is expected to cost over 2
billion naira. Side-by-side with a 5,000 seat auditorium for
church services are high-brow restaurants, cafeterias,
indoor swimming pools, cinema halls, gymnasiums, retail
shops, games arcades, lawn tennis courts, relaxation spots,
and a helipad as the crowning glory. Of what relevance is all
this “supermarket” in a church?
Anointing for carnality
A church-member, overwhelmed by the grandeur of it all,
buttonholed me in the hallway. I did not know him from
Adam, nevertheless, he held me hostage as he waxed lyrical
about how the Redeemed Church was, to use his words:
“taking over.” “We have already got the vice-presidency,” he
said. (The vice-president of Nigeria is now a Redeemed
pastor). “Next we will get the presidency,” he continued;
“and then we will get DSTV;” (a South African satellite
television network).
The anointing for this pride of life flows right from the top.
The General Overseer of the Redeemed Church is Pastor
Adeboye. A few years ago, he decided he needed a billion
naira without which his “work of God” could not be done. So
he confounded the Christian faith by establishing a
“millionaire’s club.” To be a member, you had to hand over
a million naira to him in Jesus’ name.
Thereafter, he upped the ante by calling for a “billionaire’s
club.” He announced that he would be building an
auditorium that can only be described as “fantabulous.” It
would be a ginormous three kilometers in length and three
kilometers in breadth. This project is clearly more designed
to get Adeboye into the Guinness Book of World Records
than it is to get the members of Redeemed into the kingdom
of God.
Declared Adeboye on that occasion: “We need 1 billion naira
from ten people. If you are one of them, please see my
personal Secretary after we finish today.” Who are those
likely to have this kind of money to give in the Nigeria of
today except those who have cornered public funds?
Thereafter, an announcer sought to know the members of
the church who were “willing to join hands with our Father in
the Lord to build a new auditorium to God’s glory.”
Vanity upon vanity
The proposed auditorium is not to the glory of God. The
proposed auditorium is to the glory of Adeboye. Adeboye’s
project is reminiscent of Saul’s, who built a monument to
himself. (1 Samuel 15:12). Nowhere in the entire New
Testament was money ever collected for putting up a
building. Money was only collected for the poor. The temple
of God is no longer a physical building. The temple of God is
now Jesus Christ.
Pastor Adeboye is getting increasingly carried away by
vanity. I have a tape of a question-and-answer session he
had with his church-workers a number of years ago in which
he boasted that the time would soon come when, before
anybody could aspire to be president of the Federal Republic
of Nigeria, he would first have to talk to Redeemed Church.
Nothing in the scriptures can be construed as suggesting
this as one of the stated objectives of Jesus Christ.
A Redeemed church-member told me of another meeting he
attended captioned: “A Day Out with the G.O.” It was a
dinner for financial sponsors of one of the annual “Holy
Ghost Festivals.” Pastor Adeboye boasted tongue-in-cheek
on that occasion that the time would soon come when the
Queen of England would plead to join Redeemed in order to
work as an usherette. The audience reportedly responded
with wild applause and shouts of “Amen.”
Richer than Bill Gates
At the just-concluded 63rd Annual Convention of the
Redeemed Church, Adeboye declared that he is now richer
than Bill Gates; widely acknowledged as the richest man in
the world. He said: “I have houses in at least 188 countries
in the world, where we have our churches, so I am richer
than Bill Gates. Each time I visit these countries, my
children would be struggling and saying daddy, come and
stay with me.”
These “houses” don’t belong to Adeboye; they belong to
Redeemed church. Knowingly or unknowingly, Adeboye
distorts the gospel. Jesus says: “All who have given up
home or brothers and sisters or father and mother or
children or land for me will be given a hundred times as
much. They will also have eternal life.” (Matthew 19:29).
However, Jesus words are spirit. (John 6:63). Therefore, his
“houses” are entirely spiritual, while Adeboye’s are
physical. Jesus does not make his disciples richer than Bill
Gates. Instead, he says: “God will bless you people who are
poor. His kingdom belongs to you! But you rich people are
in for trouble. You have already had an easy life!” (Luke
6:20/24).
Adeboye continued: “If I announce here that tomorrow
morning, I need a car to travel to the new auditorium, how
many cars do you think would be made available to me by
you my children? Those of you that do not have a car of
your own, very soon, God will give you your own cars. So, I
am appealing to you to become an incurable soul winner
before you leave this convention ground and your cup will
overflow.”
Anathema to Christ
This is nothing but the enticing word of man’s wisdom.
Believers don’t preach the gospel in order to receive cars.
We do because God commands that we do so.
Jesus had neither chariots nor horses. He had no lands and
houses. Indeed, he warned a prospective disciple who
wanted to follow him they would not be staying at the
“Sheraton Hotel:” “The foxes have holes, and the birds of
the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay
his head.” (Matthew 8:20).
Jesus does not speak like Adeboye. He says: “A disciple is
not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master. It is
enough for a disciple that he be like his teacher, and a
servant like his master.” (Matthew 10:24-25). Jesus’
example is anathema to Adeboye’s declaration that he is
now the richest man in the world.
This is the word of Jesus the Adeboyes of this age choose
to ignore: “It’s terribly hard for rich people to get into the
kingdom of heaven! In fact, it’s easier for a camel to go
through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to get into
God’s kingdom.” (Matthew 19:23-24).

A BLOODY SUNDAY

I can't stop crying, my eyes soaked with tears as a long vehicle carrying a tanker of fuel speed pass me. It was on a Sunday afternoon 31st of may 2015 around 3.00pm. The sun was smiling at me, the weather was great, I was standing right there in front of TRACAS park Onitsha paying for the transport fair as the tanker speed pass me on a very close range with a mind blowing horn. My heart skipped in shock. His brake failed him, i thought in my mind and i was right. Not so far from where i was standing(around peace park) the tanker fall down and crushed people along with him. "Oh my God it was not long i passed through that place" i cried out. I was still shouting when i heard a loud noise... The worst have happened, the tanker just bursted into flames and many buses in the park have joined the flame. People shout and screaming in pain as the fire burn through them without mercy. Right before my very eyes a bus was carrying man whose skin have turned white by the flame... Shouts of cry, shouts of flame shouts of pain... It was still like a James BonD movie to me and i was wishing it to be a dream or even a movie but it wasn't. Can't thank God enough. Who am i that he cares for me. An imperfect being like ME, but he still takes his time to care for me.

Huh! I actually winced and recoil at your statement, though I'm an APC supporter, I can boldly say your the first person that has ever wished either tinubu and obj remain in power amongst all the peoples I've encountered.

Do you know the meaning of the word 'satire'?

The Yorubas know Kola, Hausas eat Kola, but (we) Igbos CELEBRATES Kola... It is like an Elephant to us, and you must recognise its presence, praise it, send wishes through it, break it and it must be eaten one bite at a time.
