U can hate all you want, the fact is your ojukwu should be shot.

I have no problem with that, as long as you host the slugs first.

donjon:

I pity you & your people who blindly follow ojukwu!
Wait until FG wipes out the entire igbo race, because of one man's stupid ambition

You may want to curb your salivation over the extermination of the Igbo race. They were here before you and they will be here after you're out of the picture.

Anyone wanna follow the match online. . . knock yourself outta here

Xolokristo:

If Ika is Igbo, then Itsekeri is Yoruba!, IKA is IKA! No two ways about that!

Don't worry, when the chips are down, you will know whether there is a difference between Ika and Ngwa. Until then, continue deceiving yourself and let Nigerians have a big laugh at your expense.

Ibime:

I can see Mikeansy has been hired by the Soludo campaign team.

All the people from Awka I've spoken to all agree that Ngige did a decent job.

That's the situation on the ground. They are very much wary of Soludo who they see as an elitist sob and another abominable PDP puppet. They way I see it, it is going be a battle between Ngige and Obi; they only two relevant contenders for the "throne''. The rest are just a bunch of inconsequential opportunists and irresponsible enthusiasts, running buck naked in the market square and dangling their wee-wee for the sole purpose of attracting attention.

Beaf:

@grafikdon

My friend, have you spotted any new releases for Mapomeji? Any previews?

Mapomeji's got the X-Factor!

My buddy Mapomeji is pretty busy with his new album, featuring notable Nairaland Heavy hitters He's still recovering from Maptitis though. . . .

Beaf:



Are you now commanding the US armed forces too? Damn!  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megalomania

He is the magical mapster who though a Canada based massive cross dresser, is everywhere, knows all, sees all and determines all through his greatest infallible weapon, right from the privacy of his house.

See map.

rasputinn:

Pardon me bros,but what's the difference,REALLY??

I can see why you asked that question. The poster (Adrew Uweh) meant to type "However, it will be more valuable if you spell IGBO instead of Ibo"

ezeagu:

I do not see the reason in pretending and faking unity.

My thoughts exactly. If the title and a little synopsis available are anything to go by, it will surely be another roller coaster of painfully pretentious unity. . . it might turn out to be more repulsive than Tears of the Sun and other Hollywood madness.

Becomerich, wanna know the uncool side effects of spinning a web of lies? You get tangled in your own lies when u are no longer capable of ''manufacturing'' more fantastic fairy tales to cover up your dubious track.  


Becomerich Cheghariaaaaaaa!!!!!  Maka na Uwa Na Acho Ikpu!!!!

udezue:

Its Ikwerre not Ikweri.

According to Becomerich the Mappper, it is "Ikweri". See Map.

becomrich,:

aloy emeka, where did you get that from. source.

Such information is well beyond the realm of ''mapping''. Btw shouldn't you be preoccupied with removing Bayelsa and Delta to Benin Republic? What's your business with Rivers and "Ikweri"?

Where is Chidichris the official Anambra/Enugu hater? Come and see your paradise on earth. The refuse dump of Africa. . .  

@Jackwriter, you shouldn't see every criticism as an attack. The critiques from other posters are in order and to be honest, they were very lenient which I believe stemmed from their familiarity with the field, knowing how grueling it feels after expending so much energy in your work and having it ripped to shreds. Always brace yourself for criticism (constructive and destructive) because they are inevitable. You will not get too far if you continue ward off the mildest criticism. All you have to do is listen, accept whatever you believe can enhance your skill and discard whatever you believe is irrelevant.

In the case of mentor, we all need one, perhaps not always necessarily in the right sense of the world, but there is always someone that motivates and inspires us. When I was in elementary school, I was drawn to the works of comic book artists Dan Jurgens and Jerry Ordway. I loved their fluidity and yet intimidating stance of their art. That was when I was drawing comics without really knowing anything about comic books. I used their works to measure my progress as an illustrator and a comic book artist. Though I never intended to ''copy'' their style, my constant exposure to their style was evident when I developed my own unique style.

Below are works by Jerry Ordway, Dan Jurgens and Grafikdon. . .

Awka, Enugu and Warri

@plutonium, I have plans to complete at least the first season of Mark of Uru (6 more ''Awufu'' episodes left ), but at the moment, it is on hold for reasons I cannot disclose . Zikora is an animated feature to be released in 2010. The description on my website is misleading (meant for another feature). I will change it to reflect the real plot of Zikora) Grafikdon is in New York. . .

Aloy`Emeka:

Not the 21st C generation of igbo nuclear families. It's very rare to find young igbo couples with more than 4 children unless they are looking for a male child. 90% of them have 2 or 3 children and no plan of having more.

That's a keen observation, but it goes both ways. A lot of them are not satisfied with only male children so they ''try'' for the princess. My parents never planned to have more than four children but the absence of a female child made that decision invalid.

The senator is entitled to his opinion. However, he will have to do a lot more to to sell me the idea of having more than two children, because to me, the idea of having more than two children sends a chill up my spine.

Kobojunkie:

It is the truth. Many are so racist that oyinbo is only good enough for use as fling and dumped afterwards. I remember when I started asking why the heck many head back home, from here, when ready to get married. And it is not just Nigerians, folks from other countries do same, but considering the way we cry RACISM in black nation, you would expect such would not be common place with us.

Used to know a guy who had two kids by his baby mama. When it came time to marry, he actually went back and picked a stranger to marry. This same dude yarned for years about how love and trust was essential in a successful union.

I was immensely embarrassed while watching a Nollywood film a few months ago. A father made a comment that clearly indicated his son who came back from "America" in search of a wife was a wise son because he didn't come home with oyibo woman. I knew I was watching an atrocious Nollymovie but Nigeria is fraught with such brazen display of racial antagonism. The worst part is MOST, if not all do not see is as such, to them it is similar to saying "hello" or "are you hungry". . .no harm done, no harm meant.

However, I must fault the OP's "Nigerians are racists" blanket statement. A lot of Nigerians are more likely to exhibit the most disconcerting racial antagonism (which we gleefully mask as tribalism) towards fellow Nigerians than a foreigner. We all know (even though we try to deny it) that there is a tendency to suck up to ''oyibo'' in Nigeria, some out of inferiority complex , some out of harmless curiosity, while others to some extent suck up for financial aggrandizement.

Potu this is going to be a bit lengthy but it is helpful. I am not sure I'd recommend "powdered beans". Why not use the real thing? Go to any African store and pick up the African black eyed peas, make sure it is either the big white peas with the small "black eye'' or the brown version. Stay away from the Mexican or the American black eyed peas if you don't want to spend a century getting the skin out. Those are good for good ol mamaput rise and beans.

Back to the process; I know a lot of folks run away from moi moi or resort to "powder'' because of the hassles involved in taking off the skin. This hassle is reduced by using the "African pea". Pour the African peas right away in a bowl or whatever you want to use. Throw in some warm water and start  ''massaging''. Do not soak it overnight (very unnecessary) and do not "grind'' the dry peas. Just pour 'em out and start massaging with warm water. You will get rid of the skin in less than 20 minutes. Put your blender to work. Don't just crack it, blend it very well.

Here the tricky part. You will end up with a thick paste, depending on the amount of water you added while blending. Use the thick paste undiluted if you want to choke while eating your moi moi. But if you want to eat your food in peace and harmony, ''dilute the paste", it should be somewhere between thick and watery. Pour in some vegetable or corn oil (Don't overdo it, use your discretion), blend the big fat red non spicy pepper  (the more the better, but use your discretion) add some "ingredients like" maggi or crafish. Note that crayfish is optional (too much can seriously alter the taste). Keep some boiled eggs handy, if you are an egg person. Wrap in plastic foils and drop them in a pot of boiling water. You have between 1/12 - 2 hrs to get the pot off the stove. Food is ready, enjoy with whatever catches your fancy.

Like someone said, stay away from tomatoes, steaks, fish etc. . . these things immensely distort the taste of moi moi. Sure you can add them but bear in mind you are no longer ''moi moi". Trust me, moi moi doesn't need half of the ingredients that people dump inside it.

Apparently, those who have a beef with what Beaf is doing have never been urged by Mapomeji to "See Map"

Beaf is doing what we call " A dose of your own medicine". See Map.

Peter Obi is a toilet-building-ghost computer-installing lame duck. He reminds me of the absolutely do nothing Umaru Yara dullard of Katsina and Aso Rock. Not saying that he has not done anything but . . . caaaam oooon!!!! I sincerely hope he is not in any way entertaining the idea of a second term. I'd rather have a truck pusher from Eke Awka. . .

@Sjeezy,how in Gods name did u come to the conclusion that the kidnappers were from SE 
Does it mean that its only esaterners that go to SE or what?You have any prove that kidnapping is a SE thing?
o ga repete oh.

His infantile drivel is a clear evidence he's  a ''teeny bopper'' who is immensely overwhelmed by a few strands of hair sprouting from the secluded portion of his anatomy. Hopefully when he becomes a man, he'd look back  and shudder at his brazen exhibition of buffoonery.
