Ewwooooooo! Wickedness in high places!

cheruv:
mmm...does kogi broadcast news in Igbo for kogite Igbos??
anyway its good knowing igalas there speak Igbo but all that remains is for them to be Igbonized..after all they're descendants of Igala warriors left after the atta Igala was defeated at lake Omeluigala.

God bless Igbo land

soonest:
@op, are u guys igalas or igbos? This thread has really educated me. I didn't know we had igala language in Anambra

DBestDoc:
I can see you are full of energy sir, i advice you channel it into something more productive like improving your English Lang. skills.

My advice though!

adeitoro:
Even what you spoke to mr John in your conversation is Igbo language that can be easily understood by any Igboman

kayi dee - keka idi (onitsha urban igbo)
kabe enale - kabe inaga (onitsha urban igbo)

alutacontinua:

bigfrancis21:
@OP, I'm just curious. What is the language situation like in those villages you mentioned? Which of the villages are bilingual in Igbo and Igala, and which speak only Igala and which speak only Igbo?

I did some google check online and the Igwes or President General of the Town's Union of those villages you mentioned seem to have Igbo names. For example,

HRH Igwe Chukwuemeka Ajodo of Ukwala community (I've noticed Ajodo-bearing names from both Anambra and Kogi states).
Mr. Godwin Ekwembili, President General of Inoma Development Union, Anambra West Local Government Area.
HRH Igwe Anthony Onyekwulu of Owele community.

modhream:
U are a liar.
All government-owned media in Anambra broadcast news in English,Igbo n Igala.They also broadcast Igala-specific programmes just as they do Igbo,otherwise normal programmes are in English

alutacontinua:
And the bolded hurts you how?
Why taking panadol for someone's else's headache?
if I ain't sure of my gender, does that stop your breakfast or lunch today?

alutacontinua:
@lagusta, you know you're my personal person, you don't have to attack me like that in public

Btw, if you have any issues with me, you could just say it or ask nicely, instead of that kinda outburst! Since when have you been willing to say that anyways? That just came out of nowhere!

Anyways, I'm probably one of the few people who doesn't feel like I owe anybody anything on Nairaland, so, whether I'm male or female, carpentry student or medical student, old or yound, alive or dead-it ain't nobody's business. You just have to deal with whoever alutacontinua is or face front. I don't owe you an explanation for who I choose to be. If you asked though, I might have explained.



And if you just knew me by chance in the real life-fake is probably the last thing i'll be in my life. I find it extremely laughable that someone would use that word to qualify me, it's probably my first!

No probs though, just wanted to point it out to you that such outbursts ain't good for your health





Lots of love.....ALWAYS!

HarmLessAkpi: And you think this is the first fight between aguleri and igala community?
They have fought with the igala community at enugu/anambra boundary just because of fish pond and they thrash those people.
Igala people are great fighters but they lack what it takes to finance a war against aguleri.
Not only man power is needed in a job but also financial assistance.
Last year aguleri warriors struck deep into odeke community and burnt many houses but since aguleri people started fighting their neighbors, none of them has struck into aguleri town, they only attack the boundary village at aguleri only umuleri people tried that but was resisted by aguleri warriors.

HarmLessAkpi: Aguleri are not orient workers nah.
And you even know that in a fair fight aguleri will spank odeke and echeano people combine together.

That's 1 of the reason your igala brothers abscond from their only fish ponds and farm settlement.

And I also heard that you people call reinforcement from igala communities at taraba and benue state to help una out in the land dispute just against one town.

Aguleri people are war mongers when their neighbors temper with their land because they have many neighbors and they never want to lose an inch to any of them.
I know say the oil land is not their land that's why they hired militias instead of doing the fight themselves.

It all boils down to crude oil politics.

HarmLessAkpi: Yep bro,
I get what you're trying to say, the suppose aguleri oil well lies deep in odeke community because to access the oil well, you have to pass inalo river and some farm settlement around it and it all belongs to the odeke people.
I still don't understand the geographical nature of that place but since you live there, help me and investigate wella.
And also try and check if igala people have resume their fishing activities at the inalo river and if they have started making use of their farmland.
This dispute is surely doing those igala community( echeano/odeke) more harm than good cos I think that inalo river is the only fishing pond they got and they have stop fishing activities at the pond because of this crisis.

I will like you to investigate wella abt the level of dispute right now and how those boundary communities are faring.

HarmLessAkpi: orient dey for aguleri nd not ibaji.
Or are u trying to tell me that odeke people cross into aguleri whenevr they feel like?
I know that the boundary land is deserted for now but not orient facility.

Zedicusdgreat: wow nd I scored 55, uniben didnt give me isd... sad ish *crying*

HarmLessAkpi: and who fed you this wack information?

Abi no be aguleri I just left last week?
Guy orient are even dredging the omanbala river side of anam for the construction of their second storage tank at anam.

zendy: This is all rubbish talk from lazy people in Kogi who cannot develop thier resources. It is common knowledge that the Anambra river basin is rich in oil and gas deposits. The two oil wells that Orient oil are currently operating on are in Aguleri otu. Is Aguleri in Kogi? FYI Orient oil is a fully licenced petrochemical refining and oil prospecting company which the Anambra state government has invested close to 3 Billion Naira to get it where it is. So instead of you lazy youths of Kogi putting your government to task about what they are doing to develop whatever resources maybe found on your lands,you people are busy conducting 'cross border raids' into Igbo land to reap where you did not sow.
