No wonder this ipobs pigs and idiots are full of hate for other tribes because they are all osu and are cursed and forbidden

I see the acts of this ipobs criminals as an act of frustration because they are all is.

As the osu is abolished today, I urge all ibos to love one another and shun tribalism on nairaland.

Hate is not good for you ibos, don't enter 2019 with hate and tribalism.

There was a time, long ago, when Nokia dominated the mobile phone market, but sadly, the company failed to evolve with the times. It has been close to a decade since the last high-end Nokia Symbian phone was released, but if you've managed to continue to use some of these devices over the past few years, you'll be happy to know that a new update has arrived.

Mind you, Nokia hasn't provided a new update for quite some time, but the hard-working developers behind Delight, a third party Symbian OS, have released a new update with version 1.7, which is compatible for the Nokia 808 PureView, N8, and E7. While it's uncertain just how many folks will actually take advantage of all the hard work, but if curious, you can check out the full changelog below.

Changes:
- Support for custom language ROFS by request. Note: old ROFS2 are compatible no more!
- Added or updated a couple of extra ROMPatcher+ patches; not needed ones were removed.
- Added Qt IAP components.
- Added MemSpy, the most powerful and hard-core task manager for Symbian that you have ever seen, because it was made by Nokia Corporation to help developers!
- MicroSD card in notification bar and camera custom resolutions are obligatory mods now.
- Removed My Nokia. It is not needed on FP2 firmware.
- Privacy policy and Product improvement are wiped away from Settings.

I think Nigerians should learn to appreciate MTN for once. MTN have contributed so much to Nigeria. No foreign business can strive in this harsh Nigeria economy.
We should encourage MTN to do more for us.

Some people have no single respect for women.

If not for the good work of Buhari, Mikel would have been nobody today.

God bless PMB

Seems Northerns brain are upside down.

Shame! Shame on you Mikel for bringing this woman home! If not for this woman we would have brought the cup home. DSS must arrest her.

Honestly speaking, I dont think it applies to all cases. Sexual intercourse is more spiritual entagled. Besides been deflowered by a man doesnt mean he deflowered your brains, mental stability and sense of reasoning. If at all, you may not be a virginn anymore doesnt mean you should be STUPID.
Dating a guy for a long time can also have affect your reasoning. So its not just about been deflowered. Love is a very strong feeling.

Alright thanks

francescainnoce:
if i were the new girl; this would most certainly be the WALK AWAY moment. A guy that beats a lady (no matter who she was to him, who she is to him, or who she never is to him) will certainly hit me. Becos generally speaking, women have the higher tendency to drive a man insane to the point of physical abuse. Therefore, except the new girls name is PATIENCE and she has patience in excess abundance, its definately worth ending the relationship.

I have a question o? Is it true that women have a special love for men that deflowed them.

nwanyionitsha:
Why is the opposition keeping quiet. Why aren't they digging when this is even the easiest way for them to win.
I don't believe a Sudanese is lording it over us all and even planning a reelection. We need stronger proof abeg.

The Opposition is keeping mute cos it is all Stagged. Buhari is dead and they have struck a deal to introduce Atiku Abubakar. The people of this Country believe an illusion, if you promise them good life, People will look the other way even if you have flaws. That's how people who have lived on a minimum wage of N18000 are like.

honestly speaking we never get coach very tactless and useless like the lifeless one in Aso Rock


the idiott no sabi read games at all how u go remove Musa still leave that mumu Alex for field

This is the best coach so far. Nowadays we qualify for tournaments without any heartache.

Denton027:
It's the idiotic gutter grubbing yorubanza pigs from the skull mining republic of South West that are instigating all this lies on social media, even the Northerners who should be in the thick of the propaganda against Obi are doing better things with their time. You have to wonder why people are so cursed, that they dedicate the best part of their already worthless lives spreading falsehoods like their who.ring mothers spread legs all over. Awon oloshi jatijati.

You have no respect for women.

Everyone has an input on how to shape ones future...Messi and Ronaldo will always remain the works best million times ahead of Okocha simply because they shape their way to greatness at the right time...but broda okocha see opportunity to go to ManUtd but he refused to stay at Bolton...what's the outcome of that now, no trophy or anything....just saying thou....

Okocha couldn't go to Manchester united/ Real Madrid because they had the likes of Paul Scholes, Zidane and David Beckham. He doesn't want to end up playing No 4 role, Which you know is accustomed to black players. For me he made the right choice because it allowed him to play his game and do step overs which we all enjoyed. Okocha was so Good they named him Jay Jay.

Thank you, I'll do and update you.

Modified *** After downloading the software and running a full scan, the issue still persist.

You mean after scanning you didn't find any virus.
Then if that is the case, the only solution is to flash a new stock rom.

There's ENOUGH SPACE on the phone, I've deleted almost all the pictures on it.

Please can you help me on what to do, I've downloaded AVG anti-virus on it but not still working.

I dont really know what to do again at this moment.

Thank you for your assistance in advance.

My God!

So Urhobo, Isoko, Itsekiri are now Igbo.. nothing we won't read on this forum.. .

"Fools who are neither Biafra nor Nigeria will in the end become Nigeria's weakness".

Westbestside:
Just see this one, they never get biafa, this one already group all of them in ss as igbo. Shouting igbo is igbo. Igbo is igbo jo, cannabis is cannabis ni.

oshe111:
Lol
I'm being logical and not sentimental
We all Know Biafra is peculiar to Igbos
Igbos are agitating more for it, etc

If we(ND) joins SE and Biafra is achieved, do U think anyone from ND would be given the chance to be Biafra's first president?

That is clearly arrant nonsense, nobody in that map is peripheral, all Igbos are the same be it Ijaw, ikwerre, Ogoni, Urhobo, Delta Igbos, Isoko, Itsekiri, Oron. etc. there are nothing like core igbo. in Biafra we stand.

*IGBOLAND NATION*

*Questions and Answers on Igbo*
I was going through the archives of the evergreen Nigeria Village Square and I saw an interesting post that tried as much as possible to clear some false misconception about the Igbos.
Tighten your seat belt and read through.

In this piece, I intend to focus on the Igbo people, their culture, civilization, and their contributions to the world. What is upsetting is the little the Igbo people, including their educated sons and daughters know about themselves. Or, more bafflingly, how the educated Igbo parrot talk fast, without taking a second look at the false information about Igbo people, which they heard or read from scantily informed or biased sources, foreign and natives, and, of course, the ever busy Igbo detractors.

I decided to write this article after the familiar surprise look I get from many educated Igbo when I begin to discuss Igbo factoids and misrepresentations, as some would say, elementary facts about the Igbo people, which were always self evident, as it becomes crystal clear to them that their previous beliefs which they parroted were false. Here are a few facts in question and answers:

*Question: Is Southeast and Igboland the same thing?*

*Answer* : Not at all. Southeast is only about 3/5th of Igboland. Igboland covers the whole of Southeast, parts of Rivers, Delta, Edo, Cross river, Benue, Kogi and Akwa Ibom states.

*Question: Why were we taught in school that Igbo people are easterners?*

*Answer* : It is both an unfortunate parroting by teachers and careless adoption by Igbo educated class. Igbo people come from Southern Nigeria and not Eastern Nigeria. It may be correct to say that the Igbo are found predominantly in eastern Nigeria. However, by saying that the Igbo are easterners, the implication is that the Igbo in western Nigeria, numbering about 2.5 million (Agbor, Ogwashi Ukwu, Ibuzo, Okpanam, Asaba, Orimili, Ndokwa, Anioma, etc) are not Igbos. The best known Igbo anthropologist Professor Mike Onwuejeogwu is from the western part of Nigeria, Chukwuma Nzeogwu, Dennis Osadebe, Okonkwo Adibe (the famous musician), Sony Odogwu, etc. are all from the western part of Nigeria. They are no less Igbo than those who live in the eastern part of Nigeria. The correct answer to your question is “the Igbo come from Southern Nigeria.”

*Question: Why do some Igbo refer to themselves as “core Igbo?”*

*Answer:* That is clearly arrant nonsense. Nobody is core and others peripheral. All Igbo are the same. It is both arrogant, thoughtless and insensitive for anybody to regard others as marginal.

*Question: Is Igboland landlocked?*

*Answer:* Not at all. Igboland stretches from Port Harcourt to Agbor. The Atlantic ocean washes the shores of Igboland at the islands Opobo and Bonny, Africa’s second largest river – River Niger, traverses Igboland with one part of Igboland in the east and another part in the west of Nigeria. Oguta Lake has the potential of accommodating large ships and could be made a navigable port. If Igboland is landlocked, then all Nigeria is landlocked.

*Question: Is there oil in Igboland?*

*Answer:* Yes, indeed. There is a lot of Oil & Gas in Imo, Abia and currently in Anambra states, and Igbo areas in Rivers and Delta States. Besides, Igboland has many other natural resources, including Coal, Iron ore, Limestone, Lead, Zinc, Brine, Glass etc.

*Question: Are the Igbo a nation or a tribe?*

*Answer:* The Igbo are a nation, and a very large one. There are many dialects or tribes in Igbo nation, just like you have many tribes within Israel.

*Question: Why do some Ikwerre people and other non southeastern Igbo say they are not Igbo?*

*Answer:* First, it is not up to them to say what they are and what they are not. When God created them, He did not ask them who they wanted to be. He just created them Igbo. The only way you’ll know who belongs to what ethnic group in Nigeria is the name and what language the name comes from. Anybody whose name is Amadi or Onyeri, or Eke, or Odili, Wanodi (Nwanodi) does not need to tell you who he is. He is Igbo, notwithstanding their politics.

*Question: But they claim that their language is Ikwerre, not Igbo.*

*Answer:* That is politics. Ikwerre is a dialect of Igbo language. Just like an Ngwa man speaks Ngwa Igbo, Arochukwu speaks Arochukwu Igbo, Ika speaks Ika Igbo, Ibani speaks Ibani Igbo etc.

*Question: Some people say that Igbo language is not complete, is it true?*

*Answer:* No language is complete. All languages borrow from each other. Igbo language is very rich. It has inexhaustible and rich linguistic features like idioms, proverbs, aphorisms, sayings, anecdotes, riddles, folklores, etc. Igbo language is one of the major languages of the world, being spoken by millions of people.

*Question: How many are the Igbo?*

*Answer:* The Igbo are very numerous. There is educated guess that if Nigeria’s census is properly enumerated, the Igbo could easily be the largest ethnic group in the country. They may number up to 40 million. Everything right now, is speculation. Nobody knows the true stratification or ethnic populations in Nigeria. The Igbo are the only ethnic group found in large numbers everywhere in Nigeria, and foreign countries more than any other ethnic group in Africa.

*Question: Do the Igbo have a culture of their own?*

*Answer:* Yes, indeed. Igbo culture is perhaps, one of the richest and all-encompassing cultures in this world. Igbo culture always observes the temporal and the spiritual aspects of cosmology. The study of Igbo culture reveals that it is extremely deep and original.

*Question: Why do the Igbo wear Yoruba Agbada and Hausa babban riga but the Yoruba and the Hausa do not ever wear Igbo national dress?*

*Answer* : Unfortunately this is the case. The Igbo have very attractive and resplendent national dresses. And they come in assortments that are extremely dignifying. The Igbo take up foreign cultures more readily than other Nigerians, and they seem not to care that nobody reciprocates their carefree attitude to life. Most ethnics promote their cultures and show off what makes them unique. Actually, it is still the same so-called educated Igbo class who behave in such disgraceful and the devil-may-care attitude.

*Question: Why do the Igbo call themselves Biafrans?*

*Answer:* Great question. Some people have the idea that Biafra originates from the Bight of Biafra. But that is wrong. Biafra was the National name of Igboland given to Igbo by the Portuguese, just as Nigeria was named by the English of Britain. There was the Kingdom of Biafra that ruled most of the ancient subtropical Africa about 50,000 years ago. Unfortunately, nobody talks about it, for whatever reason (maybe because Portugal lost the colony right of Biafra to Britain who buried it, in other to promote Nigeria amalgamation), "I do not know". But, it is in the ancient maps of the world. If you wish search it in Google.

*Question: Were the Igbo also taken into slavery during the slave trade?*

*Answer:* Yes. The Igbo slaves themselves gave account of their travails in slavery. Olauda Ekwuano an Igbo ex-slave who bought his freedom in Britain was the first slave to write about his experience in slavery. His book has become a classic. You ought to find it and read it. Also, other Igbos who were brought to America revolted and some walked back on water and were said to have returned to Africa. Several books have been written about them. One of such books is “Ibo Landing.” It is available in bookstores like Barnes & Noble. In Haiti, the Igbo settled there and refused to be colonized by anybody. There are many places where the Igbo left their mark or their signature.

*Question: How did the Igbo know days and years?*

*Answer:* The Igbo invented an accurate, if not the most accurate calendar called “Iguafo Igbo (Igbo Calendar).” In Igbo calendar, there are four market days – Eke, Afor, Nkwo, Orie that make one week. Four days make one week, seven weeks make one month, and thirteen months make one year. There are 28 days for each month, with the last month having 29 days. Each month starts the same day as the previous. Igbo calendar forms the perfect astronomical alignment with the cosmos, and regulates the seasons, agriculture, navigation, astrology, geography, mathematics, travel, etc.

*Question: Did the Igbo have their own alphabet?*

*Answer:* Yes, indeed. It is called “Nsibidi.”

*Question: How about mathematics; did the Igbo know mathematics?*

*Answer:* Yes, indeed. There are such inventions as “Okwe” and “Mkpisi” which the Igbo used to resolve figures.

*Question: Did the Igbo know anything about banking?*

*Answer:* Yes. Igbo banking was more in the nature of Savings and Loans. The authentic Igbo savings and loans invention called “Isusu’ in which contributions are pooled each week and one person, who has the need, collects, is still in practice. Igbo slaves took this invention to the Caribbean Islands where they still practise it and call it “Sue Sue.”

*Question: Some people say that Igboland is too small for the Igbo, that they have no alternative than to live as Nigerians: is this true?*

*Answer:* False. Igboland is a large country. Do every Igbo need to stay and work in Igboland? No. Everywhere in the world, some will stay home while others venture abroad in search of opportunities. Igboland is large enough for the Igbo. And it is a very rich and hospitable part of the world. It has rich soil for agriculture, abundant rainfall, good sunshine, and table land in many parts. Its land space and population are more than that of over half of the present countries in the world.

*Question: Where did the Igbo come from?*

*Answer:* That question is still being asked. There are very intriguing theories or histories now being studied. You may have heard of the Jewish angle & the Egypt angle which are connected, and the Origin of man angle. This twenty-first century, hopefully, will resolve the mystery.

Share to educate others if you love Igbo.

As every Nigerian keep asking " how did Nnamdi Kanu get to Israel". Why did he finally surface after Igbos have agreed to participate in next year General election.

Here is my view, Sentiment aside, given all that President Buhari have faced, does anyone in his party (APC) have the courage to say Buhari will win next year General Election.

I can boldly tell you "NO", I am suspecting the Presidency is now a co-conspirator in kidnapping fraud: I believe he is playing his wild cards. I mean I know buhari have teeth but I never knew he had claws.

The Nigerian Military kidnapped Nnamdi Kanu under the disguise of Python dance, then just weeks after PDP presidential primary election, the Nigerian military decided to dump Nnamdi Kanu in Israel ��. What the presidency is trying to do is to set confusion into the minds of Igbos and the PDP camp.

Those in power are trying to change the future of Igbo's and we must resist this temptation. Thank you.
