Lightskinned Eboes are the real Eboes, darkskinned ones are just Bijango people masquerading as Eboe. Ask Onyendu Ohamadickhead.

It’s a free world mate! Sadly, it allows even demented beings like you to hold an opinion on issues....even issues that have fuckall to do with you!

By the way, could you provide a link showing where ‘Ohamadickhead’ said some ‘Eboes’ are the real McCoy based on their lighter complexion!?

Nkitara:
Ezeife or whatever his name is thinks he talks on behalf of all the Igbos. Imagine Igbos kneeling for the North, this man must have in his brain or his brain is demented because of old age.

The man really mistalks sometimes!

Anyone who knows how these Arewa 'the north' reason when it comes to anything IGBO and presidency should have expected this kind of response!

BKayy:
So you left the message and fixated on "likes" that add nothing to anyone's pocket.
You have serious issues. I think you need to ascertain why you post on this forum.
Is it for likes? Or to make a point?

After doing that, I will like you to Google this "PAPER BAG TEST", it was a discriminatory practice based on complexion by slaves in the carribean. A stupid practice that cost them unity and subsequently eternal slaves for ever.

The place that carried out that stupid practice extensively was Jamaica and till date, it is the only country with 98% blacks that is not independent and will never be until they receive sense.

I believe you now understand why I have to cut you and your fellow ignoramuses short when you are still starting.
If I have not heard of this stupidity from "Radio Biafra" and Nnamdi Kanu's mouth himself, I would have ignored you lots but since I've heard it from someone that some inferiors now consider God, I have to warn you before you dig your own grave by yourselves.

Nobody is telling idiots like you people not to roll in stupidity but, using something similar to the shameful paper bag test that can destroy the Igbo nation and put you ignoramuses at existential risk is something I can not condone.

In almost all of Igbo families, they are divided between the two shades and I can't allow any of you idiots instigate something that might pose harm to any of it

So any way I choose to talk to both of you, no matter how aggressive or unappealing it sounds, you two and your group DESERVE IT.

I don't pamper stupidity.

You really are a cantankerous slimeball! If you 'don't pamper stupidity' then put a gun to your head and blow your brains out!

Ain't it funny that you arrogate to your quarrelsome self, the 'authority' to decide what one can or can't comment on on a thread!? It smacks of being a control-freak with a disturbed mind when you read misplaced and unwarranted meanings into posts based on your own paranoia, fears and insecurities, and then go off on a rant about 'paper bag' nonsense.....like i give a shit!

If you had issues with the points the OP raised, you should have directed you misplaced rant at the original post....esp' seeing as you don't have a case to begin with!

I was in agreement with the OP to the extent that....based on the extract quoting the observations of the explorer Captain Crow, and from my own observations too....that IN PRE-COLONIAL TIMES, THERE WAS A HIGHER INCIDENCE OF LIGHTER-SKINNED IGBOS AS A PERCENTAGE OF THE POPULATION THAN IS PRESENTLY THE CASE TODAY! It's only a quarrelsome, nit-picking asswipe like you that would read that and have your imagination run wild about 'paper-bags....shopping-bags' and all the other horseshit you posted up there! If you can't live with my observation and my position, then you can go get a strong rope and hang!

You may not have realised it, seeing as you're thick as a plank, but as you're screaming that 'Igbos are all black as charcoal', you're inadvertently making light-skinned Igbos feel there's something wrong with them and that they are 'impostors'....not 'real Igbos' since they're not dark-skinned like majority of their kinsfolk are! YOU are the schmuck that is creating a caste-system....in your case, one that favours dark-skinned Igbos!

Mazi Kanu remains my hero till tomorrow! I may not agree with all he says and his position on how to go about the struggle...but he remains my hero nonetheless! The difference between you and i is our approach to disagreeing with him, and this is what ultimately exposes you for the fraud and 5th-columnist you actually are! You've managed to fool a lot of Igbos and others on here with your fake 'pro-Igbo' stance, but i noticed long ago that there's something sinister, deceptive and nasty about you!

For a happier and more content life, learn to let go of the desire to 'police' any and every post you feel isn't in keeping with your own position!

DubaiLandLord1:
How many times have you seen a fair person married to a black person giving birth to a black kids? Their kids is 99% always fair.

Post your pic make we see Mr. Okoro

I'm 'Mr Okoro'...yes! You are.....?

You assertion on the complexion of the offspring of a fair and darkskinned couple is way off mark and probably the the result of smoking too much weed!

ANSMEDIA:
NCAA Approves Opening Of Anambra International Cargo And Passenger Airport Effective December 2nd, 2021.

By Uche Nworah (ABS News)

The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has issued authority to Anambra state government to open
Anambra International Cargo And Passenger Airport for commercial operations with effect from 2nd December, 2021.

In a letter dated 1st December, 2021, addressed to Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra state, the aviation authority said that it has received security clearance from relevant security agencies for the opening. It said that the negative security clearance was the reason the authority had declined approval for the opening of the airport on the 30th of October 2021, when the state government had scheduled the commissioning.

In the interim, Category B aircrafts are permitted to land and take off from the airport from sunrise to sunset.

Speaking on the development, Anambra state Commissioner for Works, Engineer Marcel Ifejiofor praised the efforts of Governor Obiano who never relented, even while on vacation to ensure that the Anambra airport becomes operational ahead of the Christmas 2021 mass return of Ndi Anambra living in the diaspora, and other visitors.

With this NCAA clearance, airlines already approved by the relevant authorities to operate at the Anambra airport such as Airpeace, Ibom Air, United Nigeria and others are expected to start scheduling flights into and out of the airport immediately.

Just wanna go back to this post for a minute, as there's been something i've been meaning to ask!

Can anyone in the know explain why the authorisation letter for commencement of commercial flights at the new airport was qualified with the proviso that only CATEGORY-B aircrafts are allowed to land at the airport? Which type of aircraft are category-B, and why did they only allow for daytime flights when the airport is equipped for both day and night operations?

I ask because i can't see what the airport is lacking to warrant such a proviso.

Is there any other thread on this forum that has more than a million views?

BKayy:
Here is your receipt


Now go back and read the dude's post again.

"okwu danaghi ọnụ, ntụtụ afia arụ"

Dude, just give it a rest!

I said: 'The guy you quoted is right about Igbos known for having Mazi Kanus' lighter complexion....and i've noticed they're mainly found around the lower part of Igboland (Abia and Imo)'.

Now this part of my post was specific to a particular assertion he made out of many....and it was this part of his post i was agreeing with! I even ended by saying his post shouldn't be written-off in its entirety...meaning, there were parts of it i didn't agree with! How you managed to read meaning that isn't in any way related to what i meant is what i'm yet to understand! I mean.....do you just go about nit-picking and looking for arguments for no reason!?

I can just imagine the kind of dickheads that would 'like' the combative and unreasonable posts you're making on this thread!

ebufa:
I agree with you 100%, bkkay was a bit too quick in his reaction............ I grew up in Lagos around idumota,it was normal for yoruba women to call Igbos "yellow",probably referring to the lighter hues of our complexion.........am not sure what that has to do with Hebrew or Jewish origins. Even today in African American communities fair-complexioned Ladies are called yellow bone or redbone, a corruption of the slavery era description of IBO slaves, they were called "red iboe".........again a reference to the copper or terra cotta fairness of a lot of Igbos........which are in large attributable to a recessed albino gene in my own opinion.

Don't mind the guy! He's just digging for issues where none exist!

paramakina202:
Yea even in my family we have mixture of fair skin and dark skin from same mother and father,my father is fair skin while my mother is dark skin so for example I took my mothers dark skin colour then I am not original Igbo according to your friends theory abi?
Yes there are a lot of southern Igbos who are fair in complexion and I happen to come from there and we don't believe in Jewish origin that is unknown to our ancestors we know the part of Igboland that is coming from with their own agenda.

Pray, what brought 'Jewish origin' into this!?

BKayy:
I know what you people (mostly the ignorant ones in IPOB) are driving at and what you want to accomplish with this insanity but you people should just stop this complexion caste system you are trying to instigate.

If many of you doing this are Nnamdi Kanu extremely fair complexion, just know that you will lose. The dark ones greatly outnumber and outclass you people.

From next year, hope Uzodimma will be the only light skinned Governor in SE. Just for you to know.

Of all the Igbo billionaires and those that hold sway in Igbo land, dark skinned outnumber light skin by atleast 20 to 1

You're sounding insane mate! Why looking to read your own meaning into a post that is self-expalnatory and couldn't be clearer?

Just for the record, i couldn't give AF what your deluded mind thinks i'm driving at! I've noted my observation and if it doesn't sit well with you, then TOUGH! You couldn't fault my response and explanation to your daft accusation....that came out of nowhere, so you now go off on a tangent, yapping about IPOB, Hope Uzodinma and all what not!

You're now putting words in my mouth...that i'm supporting a 'complexion caste system'! Like....WTF dude!? Where in my post did i say or imply that lighter-skinned Igbos are of a higher caste than the darker-skinned!?

BKayy:
Nope, there was never anytime there was higher percentage of fair Igbo.

Lets not allow this stupidity go far.
The report said "many" which means a sizeable amount not "most"

I know what i meant! I said 'a higher percentage than we have today'....meaning a higher number in the general Igbo population than is presently the case today! I didn't say that lighter-skinned were higher in number than darker-skinned as a percentage of the general population!

paramakina202:
This is one of your ancestors,.People with mix race don't have flat noses as described by that European.You can see the Fulanis that have Arab blood how they look like...Ethiopians and Somalians.We are typical Africans.Your Jewish claim is dead on arrival.

It's a known fact that Igbos can be quite fair....this doesn't preclude the fact that there are darkskinned Igbos too! The time the British explorer wrote this, there were probably a higher percentage of light-skinned Igbos than you have today and more concentrated in ceratin clans....but given the growth in movement and interaction amongst the different clans, this would naturally lead to inter-marriages and a dillution of the lighter shade.

The guy you quoted is right about Igbos known for having Mazi Kanus' lighter complexion....and i've noticed they're mainly found around the lower part of Igboland (Abia and Imo). I've also noticed some Akwa-Ibomites have a similar lighter complexion as well! If you found his post insulting to the Yoruba and Hausa, then take him up on that, rather than writing off his theory in its entirety!

West1side:
Imagine what this fool as to say.
The same Ghana I visit every now n then ? What is beta about Ghana that Nigeria needs to emulate ? I swear your father need a brain check.

For starters, Ghana has the kind of peace and absence of murdering of its citizens in industrial numbers on a weekly basis that Nigeria can only dream of! It's a oasis of peace when compared to Nigeria! Or you think the effects of a country having a successful and working political structure and economy are only measured in naira and kobo...or cedi and pesewas, as the case may be?

Rexwalters1:
Unitary state, a system of political organization in which most or all of the governing power resides in a centralized government, in contrast to a federal state.

In a unitary state, the central government commonly delegates authority to subnational units and channels policy decisions down to them for implementation, Mumurist was it President Buhari in Abuja that chose the Governor & Local Government Executives of your state?

A good example of a unitary state includes the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. However, Northern Ireland, Wales, and Scotland hold some degree of devolved and autonomous power. ... Examples of areas include the Kingdom of Norway and the Republic of Ireland. Dummy.

The only dummy is you.....well, you and the other clever-by-half dummies with a similar penchant for deceit and twisting facts!

Nigeria is operating a unitary system of gov't in all but name! It doesn't automatically become a practising federal entity just because Rexwalters and the useless Nigerian constitution says so!

You want to tell me you don't see how states are beholden to Buhari and Abuja and dependent on them for monthly allocations (feeding bottle federalism)? You want to tell me you don't see how the useless constitution has centred most powers in the exclusive list that ordinarily in a federal system of gov't should be in the concurrent list? You want to tell me you don't see how the federal gov't has cornered the power to determine who gets what and how much in the oil and gas sector, while almost ignoring the gold mined in states like Zamfara? We all hear how the federal gov't sends down its murderous army to the Niger-Delta region to destroy illegal refineries and oil bunkerers, but we never hear of them doing likewise to miners of gold in Zamfara....why is that? See how your evil federal gov't, on a whim, can frustrate a state like Anambra that wants to open up its airport for operations, or wants to benefit fully from the exploitation of oil and gas found in its domain...yet you want to sit there and posit that states like Anambra are semi-autonomous and free to use their resources as they wish with minimal or no interference from the centre!

And don't even think of using the worn out excuse you 'one Nigerianists' usually resort to when you say we should 'hold our governors first before looking to blame Abuja'! The governors and the political-economy they operate in are a product of the warped federal structure and failed leadership recruitment process in place from the late 60s to date......and even if they were brilliant and visionary enough, such qualities can only take them so far, before they're met with obstacles placed in their way by the 1999 'constitution' and a malevolent, vindictive, greedy, parasitic, nepotistic and bigoted federal gov't in Abuja!

It's the status-quo in place today that allows a Buhari to centre more projects and federally enabled benefits in Katsina as against what is done for the entire south-east region, yet Rexwalters thinks that's acceptable and that the answer to any grievances the south-east may have is to go and hold their individual governors! It's people like you, who see white and call it black, just because you feel it benefits you to say so or because you feel it would disadvantage a region or people you despise....it's unsavoury characters like you that are a huge part of the problem Nigeria faces today!

JohnBullMySon:
Thank God you see it. I mentioned it sometime ago on Nairaland and someone apparently from ebonyi responded with insults. Gov Umahi needs to change whoever he contracts for building finishing. They're giving the buildings a poor outlook.

Admittedly, he does go over the top with the interior decor of his projecs! This one, as nice as it is, has David Umahi stamped all over it!

He needs to contract out the decor aspect of the job to qualified contractors with a good world-class track record of delivery!

BKayy:
Here they come again with inferiority complex.
Time for quick history lesson,

During the existence of Old Anambra state, only two governors were civilians and they are from present day Enugu state. Have you seen anybody from present Anambra state complaining?

During the existence of Old Eastern region, only two governors were black.
One is from present day Ebonyi (Akanu Ibiam) while the other is Ojukwu.
Have you seen anybody from Enugu complaining?

Oga, nobody did anything to you. What you are doing now is called blame, blackmail and inferiority complex.

It's very much doubtful if the fool is Igbo! It's the usual divide-and-rule tactics they love using in the east!

AmericanQuarter:
Some of the toilets/rest rooms and conveniences at Anambra international airport

Been waiting to see what the toilets look like. It's hard to tell what part of the terminal they're located. Could you attach the entire video where you screenshotted the pics from?

ChimaAdeoye:
The company that did the water system understand what is meant by good finishing to make a project decent. A typical Nigerian company would just drill the boreholes and once they get water pumped into a tank, they will leave the entire surrounding dirty and unkempt like a pig farm. This dude understands that it's not just about getting water pumped into a tank, but making the whole environment decent and lovely to the international standard of a decent environment. Imagine if the terminal building area and other open spaces around the airport are landscaped like the water area where they worked. The whole airport and its immediate environment will totally be transformed to resemble something one would see abroad.

I wish the company that did the water supply systems at the airport are given a landscaping contract to re-grass bare red earth around the runway & taxiway and plant flowers and trees around the terminal building, main gate, etc. Even the landscaping with grass, trees, and flowers at the international convention center should be given to them. One of the biggest challenges of projects done in the southeast is the lack of adequate landscaping which makes them always appear shoddy or below standard.

I am very happy each time I see the water systems section of the Anambra international airport. They made sure that the environment is clean, green, and decent. So one can have some confidence in the water they pump out.

You're spot on!

Not only do we take finishing and landscaping lightly, but we don't normally bother to keep public spaces pristine and spotless....with attention paid to detail! Akwa-Ibom and Calabar are a bit better in this regard!

I said it a few weeks back, that like-play-like-play the airport would be finished and opened for business without the entire grounds being landscaped and grassed over! One thing you notice when you look out of the window as your plane comes in to land at Schipol airport and is taxiing up to gate, is how green, well-manicured and pleasant the entire surroundings look.....and looking in the distance, you can see wooded areas outside the airport perimeter fencing. You're then reassured you're arriving at a sane, well-ordered and civilised society! First impressions count! Conversely, looking out of the window when your plane is coming in to land in Lagos (Abuja is ok) and most other Nigerian cities, you get the impression you're arriving at Kabul airport and you automatically psyche yourself up for battle....hot, dusty, brown earth everywhere and disorganised! And the moment they open the plane door and you step out on to the jet-bridge, the kinda heat that hits you almost knocks you out and gives you the feeling you're stepping in to hell!

TarOrfeeek:
How then does the North manufacture all the votes we counted in 2015 election?

Was INEC counting fingers and toes as voters.

Nigeria is a very big joke.

Thought i was the only one wondering where the population up north is for them to be assaulting our sensibilities every election and census with outlandish figures? Even Kaduna, we're told is the next most populous state after Kano, is near empty outside of Kaduna metropolis!

Nigeria is a fraud as well as an expensive joke!

amuwo1980:
Na that time u go know say u be orphan , with no oil to dash as bribe to anyone , your only supporters will isis and taliban and others like that , Russia is not for u , China is not for u , only Britain have sympathy for u for reasons known only to them but I see it as borne out of racism and hatred for the real black ppl, they are using Nigeria to keep the black man down , so Nigeria have to go for the black man to thrive

Hehehehehe

I suspected he didn’t use the words ascribed to him! It’s obvious some people -for whatever reason....could be ethnic, business or just pure envy related- wanna see his business fail!

This is Nigeria....and a successful entrepreneur faces more challenges than he otherwise would face in saner climes...more-so if he’s Igbo!

RuudVanNisteroy:
It would have been settled in court like Tinubu $460k forfeiture for narcotics trafficking and be a public record.

Any proof of your assertion?

RuudVanNisteroy:
He should visit his mansion in Atlanta,Georgia- his Rolls Royce Phantom and Prada cloths are getting dusty. The FBI is waiting to welcome him with open arms and have a surprise for him

Is that how it works!?

If you’ve no follow-up on the issue besides these antiquated 2019 stories, what’s to say the issue hasn’t been settled and the indictment withdrawn!?

You following Allen Onyemas’ travel itinerary to know which countries he’s travelled to and which countries he hasn’t!?

Hehehehehe

Political EFCC....only good at harassing the gov’t and APCs opposition and enemies!

RuudVanNisteroy:
It is often said the fear of the Federal Bureau of Investigation(FBI) is the beginning of wisdom. They do thorough investigations that have made the most hardened Mafia crime bosses fold in order to serve reduced jail terms.

The fear of the FBI is what made Air Peace owner Allen Onyema abandon $14.2 million dollars seized by the FBI, after an arrest warrant was signed by a judge. Eventually the $14.2 million dollars will be forfeited to the United States government if he doesn't turn himself in; it appears he has too much money that losing such a significant amount of money doesn't faze him.

The supercop DCP Abba Kyari will be having sleeping nights. He knows if he is extradited a jail cell is in his future;the FBI have some of the best investigators in the world and hardly ever lose a case.

What you posted suggested his account was FROZEN! You have information to the effect that the entire issue hasn’t been settled, and said account is still being FROZEN, since you say Allen Onyema ‘abandoned’ $14+ million? I mean, what you’re posting here is from 2019....is there no follow-up by the indicting authorities on the matter!?

Since 2019, Allens’ coy has been doing business worth more than a billion dollars with reputable international aviation coys. How come the FBI in the US hasn’t advised these coys on the ‘pending’ indictment they have on him? How come they haven’t liaised with the Nigerian gov’t to have him extradited to the US for trial!? Or your snooping capabilities no reach to find out these ones!?

RuudVanNisteroy:
They are related due to oustanding arrest warrants they have against them.

Must have missed the part where you showed the arrest warrant for Allen Onyema. Could you upload it again?

Akwamkpuruamu:
With Fulani in INEC and Supreme Court. U never see anything

Hehehehehe
