biafranbaby: All of the above. + many more.

Ogugua was elected in a free and fair election.Get over it.Whatever she said or didn't say in the past rarely counts now,tWas Igbos that nominated and voted for her.

Okija said he's accepted his fate before and after the elections.why cry more than the bereaved?

Many more

This is the time to correct whatever ill or irregularity with the last election.Join now.

PointB: 9ja_I_hail spoke my mind on Ogugua's issue. Some of us who call for her you from

. How can we even begin to rationalise a case where someone vehement ridicule sister states, our Eze, or Eze Nwayi and then have the audacity to approach us for lead same group she/he derided.

I don't think we owe such person the dignity of polling. Anyone who hold such opinion, should be disqualified as a form of deterrant. You can not have a sane society, without accountability and responsibility.

More to come...

uhm,what do we define as ridicule or insult?
Who decides when one has done both ?

If actually one is guilty of that and is nominated for a post what does it say?some Igbos didn't see the so called ridicule and if s/he wins what's the message?s/he actually spoke the minds of Igbos on Nld, no ?

I'm yet to see a reason,just one .For which a bonafide Igbo should be disqualified.

All this whinning and merry go rounds are nauseating to say the least.What really is y'all problem?
Oguguas position,Okijas disqualification or what

@Topic,for the men claiming All men hate sagggy b000bs/prefer firmer ones,does it mean that men that married single moms with 2 kids,divorces and widows with kids and sagggy b000bs are not men ?
It's good to have an opinion on a subject,but when you start saying your opinion is true for everyone on same subject then it's . . .

Thanks OP.

Seems dragnet is their major recruiter .

Whats this ?

Sales as in buying from you then resale and make profit or sales as in selling for you and earning commision per day/salary per month

@OP,what led to the argument?
Never block anyones path in the face of an argument.NEVER
Too early to start calling family and friends.It's your home,man up,sit tight and row your boat.

No victor,no Vanquished.You both need to go back to the drawing boards.

Okoro2015: Dr Sir Warrior outwitted Kabaka & Co in the defunt Oriental brothers on asset sharing. As a revenge, they sang a song which contains the evil phrase "If u see a snake and Mbaise man, first kill.........." I think that stereotype got rooted in the psyche of many listeners who over time became agents in spreading it.

At OP, please disregard this rumour, Mbaise people are one of the finest Igbos you can ever get. Irrespective of the fact that bride price there is one of the most expensive in the entire Igboland, see how well-to-do young men troop to marry mbaise daughters coz Mbaise women are firmed in marriage
values. Again please disregard that hyped
stereotype.

@bolded,there you are. Another stereotype.
I've seen 2 Okada men,an average okirika cloth retailer and a eke onuwa butcher marry Mbaise ladies and none took a loan to pay the bride price.

nedu210: Eke kere uwa means the creator that created the world. Its just a praise name

I think that's about the closest we can get for the noun Being.

Living being= eke di ndu
non living being= eke na adighi ndu
supreme being = eke kachasi

StarFlux: Interesting! How do you say computer in Igbo?

Ezeagu or Ezeuche did translate this sometime ago.
I'll say Igwe Ngbasa ozi though that Ezeagu's translation was the best.

Kai,You too fine.
Ara ga-agba ndi ara final.

AJ you got odu title ?

Pretty4ril: I visited a friend of mine and she was crying telling me that anytime she quarrels with hubby he will tell her how she gossips people with him instead of current affairs.Hubby will listen and she will just talk maybe about what a cousin,friend,sister or neighbour did only to use it against her anytime they pick quarrel.She sees it as betrayal since they can't joke, talk and laugh over somethings without his finding fault.

Soooo,what was your advise for your friend?

I think there's a fine line between gisting and gossips.You can gist with your hubby about fun things that happened at the spa,salon or even Nld(if he has time to listen),those are wife fables and about strangers but when you take a cousin/best friends story confided to you in secret and most possibly for advice to do bed time appetizer,then it's distatseful.

Her husband might be wondering if she shares their own intimate stories with the cousins et all and they
too with their husbands.

Are you safe from your friends restless tongues?how many of your stories and secrets have she told her hubby and laughed over

begwong: May God bless all those that supported in cash and in kind.For those that had the intention to give but didnt have at that material time,may God also extend his divine blessings to you all.

thank you.

Nothing wrong with an adult smoking weed so long as s/he does not misbehave afterwards.

The only problem i see is a couple that are not true,open and honest to themselves. Why hide your indulgences from the closest person to you

@OP,are you worried cos your man smokes weed or you are worried cos you just noticed ?

^ lol.

Odumchi o zatara ya?. Nke a yiri bekke Tosh .

Why spend energy talking ill or focusing on the shortcomings and weaknesses of the dead?

Btw, you no dey fear say ghost fit slap you if you talk bad about am? LOL

Torch1: Pls someone translate being to Igbo language for me.

depends on how its used in a sentence.

Being conjunction = maka

Being adjective = dika (from the verb to be)

Being noun= still trying to work it out. Onye does not really capture it.

Good gracious God.

Why not ask the Nigerian community @ missussauga

Jidegirl, you know right, the OP needs to answer our question as to how she landed at the home first?

If they took her there against her wish or sweet talked her into going there, then its understandable if she's rejected their offer now.

@OP, how did she end up there initially

How did she end up there in the first place? She asked to be taken there or you guys decided to take her there

Pato405 and Omicron, if you guys just got to Benin pre Oshimole then you guys are in no position to query my stance.

You need to have been in Benin before and after Oshe baba to rate him especially in the area of road network and transportation.

Btw, I'm not an indigene so have nothing really at stake here. Just saying as I SAW and EXperienced

ogugua88: What are the pronouns and some common verbs and negations?

I know:

a = I
i/gi = You
o = he/she/it
anyi = we
unu = You

I don't know "they". Some verbs I'd like to know are "be/to be", "can", "will", etc.

As per negations, is it always "ro"? As in, "o di ro nma" (it's not good)?

Pronouns
I = mu, m or m' and a (I'll talk about when to use each later)
You= gi,i
It/he/she= o, e
We= anyi
Them= ha
Our/ours= nke anyi.
Theirs = nke ha
Yours= nke gi
She= nke nwanyi
he= nke Nwoke
her/him= ya
Verbs
Be= bu
To be= i bu
Been= buru

Can= ga
Cannot= gaghi
* ga is most times used with an - .

Have= nwere
To have= i nwe
I have= m/e nwere m

Ghi and ro are the negations I can remember now.
Will and can are inter used.

afam4eva: It means "White pusssy"..Btw, you're lying about everyone saying that in your hubby's village. What sort of village is that? Is it made of of perverts?

she might not be lying.
Otu ocha is an every day word in Mbano however, its used as an exclamation not derogatory or taken for direct translation.

Its used to express shock, surprise for both pleasant and unpleasant surprises.

afam4eva: isn't Ohu buttocks? I thinkk pusssy is Otu.

yeah buttocks is either ike, otele or ohu. Puccie is either ikpu or otu.

How did we get here?choi

ItsModella: The Onitsha people I know use Ife

Önicha people actually say ive . They use "V" as opposed to "F"

Yes!
