E PAIN AM!!!!

very stale line

Ruggedpen:
Not that igbo's are respecting ur traditions and customs but u guys are envious of their achievements in your land, before was Oba of Lagos and now is oba Akure, I think their use igbo race to gained popularity.

yeah yeah yeah the old stale envy line achievement indeed. achievement that left you iPod yoots desperately trying to get of Nigeria. achievement that has failed to translate to development for your region. what a joke

kai Nigerians are the problem of this country. why will any sane individual buy that?

Lightening:
Funny. You are as illiterate as your dumb deji. Take away a title he did not give? How foolish!

lol I understand your pain but the directive has been given already. if the eze tries to be unruly he'll be whipped in line. sorry iPod flaty

Lightening:
Deji is the one that should go to court, unless he wishes to take laws into his hands. This time around, he will be thoroughly embarrassed.

the law is already behind the Deji as he was presented with a staff of office by the governor when he was crowned. the same can not be said of your eze. if he goes against the directive he'll be flogged again and again and there's nothing anyone can do

obstead200:
@ the bolded, that is exactly my point. If I live in akure, I can go around and proclaim to the world that I am the Eze of my family and my compound in akure. As far as I don't usurp the authority of the Deji of akure over the akure pple, I am entirely within my rights to rule my compound and my family.
That is exactly the circumstance we are looking at here. The eze ndigbo is not usurping the authority of the Deji. He acknowledges that the Deji is the monarch over all akure. His pple however selected him and said be our leader in akure. Be our representative in front of the Deji. As our tradition demands, we will call u 'Eze'. That is all. If not for spite, the stupid Deji need not worry his petty head over what the igbo chose to call their leader, as long as they did not crown him another Deji and as long as his activities does not usurp the authority of the dDeji.

lol in that case you will only be the eze of your family. ipobs are only know for chest beating. no same ethnic tribe will allow outsiders disrespect their customers especially when he has been staying in the land for several years

Shayetet13:
Then stop talking about killing pythons. There is a law in Nigeria against indiscriminate killing of wildlife with jail sentences. So if Nigeria was to be a law abiding nation, you won't be killing wildlife anyways. So if you want to talk about culture, please choose another topic aside killing wildlife.

lol a law against wildlife preservation in Nigeria? what a joke with all those pictures of pythons being killed online daily? abeg carry your wahala go. I only used it as an example. I've never killed a snake so swerve

tifany89:
This is how we support impunity by our words n actions. Flogging a full grown man for whatever reason to u is right abi? Until ur father is at the receiving end.

see this unruly individual bringing my dad into a political argument. it's either you are fatherless or you have no regard for the unlucky man that fathered you. I won't bother to reply to your mentions anymore including the others I'm seeing right now

Shayetet13:
The world is talking about wildlife preservation and people are making money writing on the importance of wildlife preservation and you are here talking about killing pythons. Is killing pythons what you understand by wildlife preservation?

wild life preservation is a topic for another day. the point here is customs and traditions. I won't go to IBO land and piss on their tradition. an IBO man shouldn't come to my land and do that either

uckennety:
I won't talk wid u or @ u!if u come and kill a python! Ur fight are wid D God's of D land not us ask around!

And if you come and insult D igwe or obi or eze

Omo ur fight is wid Him ooooooo no time

But if u kill anyone of us or tk our lands

Omo ur in 4 a longtin

lie lie iPod yoot. if I kill a Python in iboland I'll be asked to perform some dvmbass rituals. it's your custom and I didn't kill a Python during my stay there. when you get to akure respect constituted authority. simple as ABC

obstead200:
tell the Deji of akure that I am the Eze of my compound and family.
Let him come and dethrone me if he feels so badly about my position.

Idiot useless he-goat of a monarch.
Afonjas and pettiness are like bread and butter

good you are the eze of your family not the eze of akure. some of you are just not smart enough to get it. disrespectful iPod yoots and empty pride are like bread and butter.
if you like call the obi of Onitsha he-goat and greet him with a sliding tackle but the moment you get to Yoruba land respect our customs and tradition

Gassa007:
Baba shut your mouth and go to church jawe

use your brain pls

Afam4eva:
We're talking of an Igbo title and not a Yoruba one. The Eze Ndigbo title has absolutely nothing to do with the traditional stool of Akure. If i decide to name myself the Eze of my family does not the Deji also have the right to interfere?

it has plenty to do. you don't just enter someone's house and call yourself a co-landord. even if you want to be chief tenant it has to be with respect to the cultures and traditions of your host.

BTW if you call yourself the eze of your family no one will interfere. the Deji is the custodian of the customs and tradition in Akure. if you want a chieftaincy title in akure then seek his approval. let the eze change his title to eze ndigbo of kuvukiland and it will cease to be our business

Gassa007:
So Ooni will have to remove his crown if he visits your so called Deji

oga don't try to drag the argument elsewhere. the Ooni is a superior king to the Deji and he'll call himself the Ooni of Ife not the Ooni of akure. if your man wants to keep the eze title let him remove any Yoruba town from the title and call himself the eze of kuvukiland for all we care

Afam4eva:
Apples and oranges. As much as i understand the part about respecting the tradition of the people but traditional does not thump the law of the land. And i don't see how calling oneself Eze ndigbo in Akure is against the tradition of the land because if it were so, then calling your self the other titles prescribed by the Deji will also be in variance with the tradition. The Deji is just an insecure c.unt (no offense)

yes he's free to call himself the eze but not without the authority of the Deji who is the traditional ruler of the role of akure. the eze can only have the title if the Deji says so. The Deji is in charge of giving and taking chieftaincy titles.

Brown Brown roof people

this is what flattie*s do when they don't have the intellectual capacity to argue

driand:
or leave? As long as biafra has not been realized, every Nigerian has the right to live or go anywhere within the Nigerian territory..

same way I had to abide by the law in abia state after we were told not to kill snakes at the camp in umunna. I didn't kill snakes. respect other people's tradition. if u can't do that then stay in your region

mumu south africans

which kind mumu opinion be this? this OP and his conspiracy theories sef

freeze001:
Ah! That's d difference between the Igbo and the Yoruba. We are republican and therefore no one being takes a decision over and above all others without consultation and agreement. The Deji cannot change the title of the Igbo representative just because of his personal desire and we will not just accept the way you do because we are not wired thar way and it is not in our nature. Also understand that traditional rules are personal rules only binding on adherents or indigenes of that area. The Deji does not decide who amongthe Igbo will bear a title and what thar title will be.

We will respect your traditional norms but will not lose ours in the process.

well as a Yoruba man I'm not wired to watch a snake crawl through my door and exit through the window just because it is forbidden by ibo laws. so if I build my mansion in Onitsha and I see a Python in my house am I free to kill it?

good for you in IBOland. for Yoruba the Deji is above all things in akure (Oba Ba Lori oun gbogbo). so he has the authority to modify or even cancel the title outrightly!!! if you can't handle our tradition then leave. case closed

freeze001:
In other words, u cannot kill pythons in Anambra state but the Obi of Onitsha will not choose the title ur representative will bear in Igboland neither will he give u an ultimatum to accept what he has chosen or have your people vote and present another person as your representative. That is not within his power and neither is it in the power of the Deji to do so.

aunty we are saying the same thing. so I can kill pythons in anambra just because I've had a meeting with my fellow yorubas in ibo land and they voted in favour of killing pythons. I'm educating you on logic here which I'm not supposed to do. it is Yoruba tradition that the king is above all things. which means anyone that has to hold any tradition title either by vote or not in akure has to seek the approval of the Deji first. the approval has been granted by the every gracious king but the merciful king has only decided to change the name of the title. he has the authority to do so. it is our custom. I won't blame you if you can't rationalise it. just accept it like we do. simple

freeze001:
Go n read d last paragraph of my post.

just answer yes or no. am I free to come to anambra with with hunting party and kill as many pythons as possible?

Chuksonyeike:
What is Eze of Akure? Is there anyone with that title? Kindly educate me

get yourself educated first

Chuksonyeike:
The deji will be the one to go to court to enforce his orders.

if your eze doesn't comply with customary laws he'll be flogged again. anyone that stands up for him will also be flogged. get the Deji arrested of file a civil suit and let's see the winner

JideAmuGiaka:
So in your mind, a leader of a tribe or organization in another state, has no constitutional recognition?.

do you even know the meaning of the phrase constitutional recognition?

freeze001:
On the contrary, ur culture does not swallow up those of other visitors or non indigenes. That is the reason there is something called diversity. The representative of a group of people does not divest himself of the authority bestowed on him because he is in the presence of the indigenous traditional ruler, that is what represents the identity of his people.
It might even be marginally tolerable if d Deji throws his tantrum over d comportment of Eze Ndigbo in his presence though certainly not that flogging, that only mirrors the lawlessness of the Nigerian state, but attempting to also change his title and replace with another is the joke of the century. Does he know or understand the spirit significance of that title to the Igbo?

so it's OK fr me to come to anambra with my boys and kill pythons?

KidsNEXTdoor:
Nairaland is owned by we Yorubas
Respect yourself or you leave
Deji is traditional ruler of akure.... We don't want visitors in our land having leaders
Respect theirselves or leave our land
Case closed

lol get lost kid. you are contradicting yourself

Chuksonyeike:
Your deji does not have the power to either remove the ezendigbo or rename the position.The earlier he understand this the better for him

lol go to court.

Chuksonyeike:
The ezendigbo position is not a traditional or chieftaincy title.please get some education.It is an elected position of leadership for Igbo's living in ondo state.Only his constituents can remove him,the deji can bark from now till 2020,only the Igbo community in ondo state can remove him

you are the one that needs to get some education. the eze is a traditional title. the Deji respectedbthe choice of the ibos until he decided to appoint his own chiefs and disrespect the king. answer this simple question. will it be okay if the Yoruba community in anambra votes in favour of killing pythons? will the Ibos accept our decision and allow us kill as many pythons as we want?
