etrange: I wouldn't want a fellow man's career or hustle to be ruined. But the fact is that we are not saints (as the OP also admitted) so we would also like to know how he contributed to the problem. The woman is not here to defend herself and all the OP could say is "I'm not saint". Well, his wife is also not a saint. If he's going to detail all the wife's short comings, he should detail his own too and let us decide who who more 'unsaintly'. I'm not siding the wife (why would I side her?) but this story is totally not objective, not even one bit. This is the kind of story you write when people around you don't agree with your actions so you come online to seek moral support.
@bolded, like I said earlier, even a bad woman wants a rich and successful husband. Like someone said, 'even Jezebel didn't mess with her husband's prosperity'. So why would she come to America with the sole aim of destroying her husband's career? How logical is that? Her actions might be destroying the man's career, no doubt; but like I said, it's not likely that's what she is out to achieve. Something must have triggered her actions but the OP summarised that "something" as "I am not a saint" and then went on to pain his wife in red. Why not tell is how "you are not a saint"? I'm sorry, bro. I'm just not riding with that lack of objectivity.
Education is good for the black girl but so are cultural norms that are peculiar to the African society. Imagine, I was having a conversation with my lady and suddenly she says American treat their women better than Nigerian men...I took a good look at her and my jaw dropped. Well , she knows better now.....how can any right thinking man compare the ever present and hardworking Nigerian man to the sissies they call men in America?
Anybody here who think this guy is making these things up is actually ignorant. I have witnessed where a village girl who was brought to the U.S by here husband was threatening her husband , beating him and dared him to touch her! Then she sleeps around and never give sex to her husband.
A lot of Naija women turn a beast when they touch down for western world....I have seen things that shocked me. Even akata women are scared of what married Naija women could do. My own be say losing my life is not a big deal to me. I know the street and NO Naija woman can try that!
You guys are demented. All you are saying is complete rubbish. Nri is a small village far from being as great as Onitsha which is a vassal to Benin Kingdom.
You are definitely out of your mind to refer to Onicha as Bini vassal. Go find your mate.
letu: Well for your information, I'm not the one that wrote any of those articles which has to do with Aro supremacy because I'm not from Arochukwu. Just as Anambara people have the freedom to talk and write about their speculated Nri supremacy the same goes to Ndi Aro so you should direct your anger towards them, last time I checked almost all Aro supremacy articles has it that they conquered/ subdue Oha Ndi Anambara which includes your Idennmili or are you saying that your Idennmili is no longer part of Anambara, alright I've heard from you that Ndi Aro did reach Idennmili okay let's leave this and move on with the topic which has to do with Isee.
It is none of my problems what nonsense anybody somewhere decides to write about but it must be backed by proof.
And , no , Anambra groups don't go around claiming what doesn't belong to them...the issue with Anambra has to do with some inventions claimed to be Nri which we later found out may have been in existence amongst the original settlers ,before Eri. But , as we speak today we can't completely define Anambra culture and decide who owns what , without encroaching into different clans claims of being the sole inventor of one thing or another. Therefore, I use a general name to classify people of Nri Oka cultured people, OMANBALA CULTURE. That way, the whole group that practice this like-culture has a common name.
You wouldn't see anybody from this region claiming Nri founded some communities not backed by evidence, rather Aro are the ones claiming things they never even know existed
letu: Okay I've heard, besides I think that Ajaanaoka open this topic so that every Igbo people on Nairaland will be able to understand and know more about Umu Eri//Nri Oka area, so I also think this topic isn't for inter clannish supremacy purpose so enough of your chest beating because it's only ---------- that do chest beating eg picture below.
Enough of your
I am the last man to brag about anything, you guys bring out the demons in me.
Honestly, not all Umuoji has Nri roots. Some are from Ogbunike , Umudioka etc. But , Oji Okodu has an Nri styled ichi scarification. Respect accorded to Nri us respect gained by the Igbo nation.
AjaanaOka: I have my reservations as to whether Eze Nri should be viewed as an Eze Ana or even as any kind of priest for that matter. Though, I'm aware of the existence of literature that calls him just that. He's been called a priest-king, but I'm not sure that description fits.
There are definitely parallels that can be seen between the taboos observed by the Eze Anas in the Nri-Awka axis and those observed by the Eze Nri. But, as I have said in previous posts, the Eze Nri himself doesn't even perform basic priestly duties like officiating at/carrying out sacrifices. That is delegated to an 'official' in his employ, because Eze Nris are gods and gods don't offer sacrifices. So the Eze Nri ranks above priests. I've (personally) been using the term 'divinity-king' for a while now.
Aja ana , daalu for even this deeper explanation. You know, as somebody who have Nri root I have not taken enough time to research extensively about Nri due to very little time outside of my daily activities. But , thankfully, you are here and I will call upon you to refer me to sources.
In pre colonial Ngwa land there was a priestly class system that was highly respected, they were respected similarly the way Umu Eri respect their own Priest/Eze, this class of Priest I'm talking about where know in Ngwa history as Eze Ala (Priest of the Earth goddess) inwhich through my research I've come to notice that other Igbo group's have similar classes of Priest by the name Eze Ala inwhich i also get to know that the title/name Eze Ala is one of the title of Eze Nri so my question is could there be a some kind of connection between Eze Nri and the Eze Ala(Priest of the Earth goddess).
You can call Eze Nri Eze Ana but we had many Eze Ana existing parallel to Eze Nri. And , no , they do not command the same reverence. Therefore, your Ezeala doesn't command the same prestige as Eze Nri. You southern Igbos are quite funny. Understand we cant all have the same institution. I smell that classic southern Igbo inferiority complex. You are the same goon that claimed Aro were setting up colonies at Nri/Awka..
Blackking98: How many Edo people or Niger Deltans use NL or YouTube? Have you seen any Niger Deltan State involving itself in Biafran celebration? For everyone Niger Deltan that you bring and say he supports your phantom biafra there are a 100 out there who are not interested in Biafra, I will use my state Akwa ibom as an example. When general Philip effiong fought for biafra we had Gen Wellington bassey, Gen etuk, Gen Udo Udo, Brig Gen UJ Esuene and others fighting for the federal government, so you see majority of us are not interested in biafra especially now we know we can have our own individual countries free of hausa Igbo or Yoruba domination. You can Google those names if u have data
Blackking98: you call us "dunces" but still add us in biafra. Lol you will call us saboteurs again like in 1967
I dont want you in an Igbo republic. Stop regurgitating nonsense like a broken record. You are just shocked by the way the Igbo unanimously rejected you treacherous minorities. Yes , you are a dunce because the only thing that unites you minorities is your common Igbo hate. None of you were able to make a coherent argument because you are blinded by hate. It took a middle Beltan to correct you ffoolishness.
If some asked you to come have a discussion you have to give audience and hear them out instead of screaming like a rabid dog , running around insulting Igbo to win cheers...yes you are unintelligent!
cheruv: Aha obodo nde Igbo ga·ehiwe ga·abụ... 土帝 太鄰 AlaỌsa oke Ìgbò... Nke pụtara "empire of Great Ìgbò" Ejishilem ike mepụta odide Igbo akpọrọ akara mmadụ/字漢... Nke bụ iji aka ndị Sin dee asụsụ Igbo. I ga·enyelim aka chọta onye ga·ebiputa ma mekwa ya dịka app?
Also, bear in mind the present Igbo Izugbe will be erased. Every state will create their own standard Igbo. So, therefore, that "Ala" is dead on arrival. You are from Imo and I encourage you create do your things the Imo way. That is the awesomeness of diversity.
AjaanaOka: In case it wasn't clear, I was in no way suggesting everyone in Arochukwu is of Abiriba descent.
I mentioned the Yakurr in the write-up, who I believe are the people the traditions identify as Akpa.
I also mentioned aboriginal Ibibio groups. There were, by all indications, post-Aha Ibibi Ibibio remnants that were absorbed into the emerging Aro society.
And as the town grew during the slave trade era, many people probably found their way there, either as slaves or as freeborn immigrants.
This is a true story; in the '70s after the Biafran war a group of Arochukwu people from Amorka quarter found their way to Umuoji , Idenmili north. They met with our elders at Umuobia and told them their ancestors were originally from there(Umuoji) and asked to be given a piece of land to resettle. The Umuoji chiefs , however, without recollection of their existence regrettably told them they have no prior knowledge of their existence and they had to return back to Arochukwu...it was strange
efe2real: Why do you think anti-igbo sentiments are the glue keeping the minority tribes in the South South region together? So you honestly believe what is stopping the Urhobos, Ijaws, and Itsekiris from killing themselve in Warri again is because they don't like an Mbaise man from Imo State?
Why do you think anyone from a minority tribe that doesn't support Biafra is a spoiler?
Your thoughts on these issues will be highly appreciated. At least, we are having an intelligent conversation.
Oga , nothing you write here will be respected because most of your initial posts are filled with bigotry , hate , resentment towards the Igbo. You didnt come here to have an intelligent conversation. You only barked down because a non Igbo intervened and schooled you Niger Deltans like the dunces you rightly are.
TheGodlessGod: @Nowenuse any Edo person that claim he's Biafran, don't take him seriously.
We know our history and territory so no need in interfering in other people business
This response is more mature and straight to the point instead of all those insults you guys are throwing around and hoping to blackmail us. However, knowing your history has nothing to do with this. Every Nigerian knows their history...An Edo man is not any more proud than Anambra man. So, make una chill
Hehehehe pained IPOB rats! Their scam exposed and the fool chokes on their 419 heritage You fathers died like rats fed on otapiapia, yours will be double...
You are shameless....were these videos hammerp posted scams? You are just a jealous and hateful punk using ipob to unleash your filth
Stpuid IPOB rats you can't be the silent majority I speak off but the ranting insignificant propagandists
Keep quiet , hammerp has slapped you around with evidence of your people who are hardcore IPOB and all you could do is rant like a mad goat!! I spit on you, you are sad !
Blackking98: You sound so emotional,why? I guess you must be breaking down in tears rn, take heart, I can imagine the pain. Never compare yourself with Pazienza, you're not fit to tie his shoes talkless of comparison, he's a real Igbo man, no empty pride and arrogance like the one you and your lots parade here on NL. I keep asking myself if some igbos on NL are the same with the igbos I know in real life and I have as best friends. Go to bed before your mum ceazes your phone little man.
With what you have written here , it's clear to every discerning eyes the deep hatred you harbor for the Igbo man. I am angered because as a pure Anambra born I will never depend on a living soul but my abilities and Almighty God but you guys have been screaming and telling everyone we are desperate to have you included....May I drop dead the day I dream of a republic with a treacherous soul like you and your likes.
Yes , I am ffucking raving mad because it's an insult to my dignity as Anambra and Igbo...who da ffuck are you for me to want you ?? Abeg, scram!
Blackking98: I know say e dey pain you, leave plenty grammar take heart
I was expecting those lengthy gibberish you typically publish. Stop acting like Igbo is begging you because Pazienza has addressed you in fullness as my other brother...man nobi God! You lot have been exposed as empty vessels on this thread...we dont need SS , ND etc....only Ignoid. Case closed !
Blackking98: They feel by insulting us or trying to take our identity away they can coerce us into doing their bidding, I remember when Jonathan was president most international news channels like BBC or CNN always mentioned him being from the "oil rich Niger Delta region or the South South region of the country". Yet some clowns sit down in their kiosk and type rubbish on NL and feel they've made sense by saying there's nothing like SS. Mtchewww
What is your problem? Havent you been addressed ? And , pray tell, show me one post by an Igbo on this thread that attempt to "coerce" you into doing their " bidding" ?
Take your ignorance , jealousy and hate which you are using your pitiful lies to mask and shove it down your throat. Nobody needs you but you. SS was a coinage that was politically motivated....stop being a wimp and use your brain muscles.
letu: I understand your point but the article I posted was written by a hardcore Aro centric person, Anambara was the main/Central fucus in the article inwhich I use it to illustrate the Idennmili factor, according to the gospel of Aro centrism the entire Anambara was under the domination/ influence of Aro Confederacy inwhich they control the entire Anambara market, before you go all out I'm not the one that wrote the article I'm only using it to show that just as Eri centric school of thought exist also there goes another that exist which is Aro centric school of thought. The Anambara here means all which your Idennmili is part of or belongs.
Before you posted that trash you knew it was not true , yet you posted it to spite Anambra people.
Apart from Ndi Owu , Ndikelionwu and Ajali who also had aborigines before Aro migration can you point elsewhere Aro migrated to in Anambra ?
Now , let me tell you how Nri remain a champion in Igbo land....Arondizuogu are Nri cultured people. Now , who is the boss? They have Nze na Ozo which erased every Aro left in them because Nze na Ozo is very spiritual.
For the rest of your life , don't post that trash again.
omonnakoda: Nnamdi Kanu said worse when he was alive
I haven't said anything out of the ordinary. I just asked some questions and explained some incidents. I didn't say what would happen to you when you invade Igbanke with your Amotekun soldiers...lol
omonnakoda: Very Yoruba like Colonel Obasanjo of 3 Marine Commando
Remember him?
We know about the incidents of ' 67 to '70 but to you know about today ?? Do you , a Yoruba man have the balls to match down to Igbanke and move them out of their ancestral land. Edo dont even have the ball , talkless you , a Yoruba man...lmao
These same western Igbo were the ones who made sure Bini didnt overstep their door steps...lol
Have you heard about AGHA EKWUMEKWU?? You can sit in your house and type whatever arouses your fantasy
�...I cant stop you from dreaming, it's your natural rights. Sometimes blind people dream to see. This is like arguing with a neophyte. Nobi Yoruba you be
Why the SS/SE ATTACHMENT Wherever Ibos they are they will be EVACUATED to a space that will be measured for them
You dont have to a single say on that. We will make a map from where Igbanke stopped in Edo state...you have no power to change that except they want to join Oduduwa republic
