pazienza: Original igboman, stroking the egos of his benefactors,while he continues to progress. I am sure that in his room,he would be saying a different thing. This is the way igbos of the old behaved,thats how people like ojukwu father and co were able to make it large in lagos and everyother place. We(ndiigbo) need to tone down the superiority talk,keep it confined to our rooms,and gatherings,while we project a humble and docile image.

Notice how happy the yorubas in this thread are with larry,it will work for his advantage,make yorubas to be less suspicious of him,and give him a better chance to succeed in their land. Tell them what they want to hear,but don't ever act against your ethnic group. That should be the way forward for us.

I believe that Zik didn't become popular in lagos by preaching igbo superiority,i believe that it was tactics like this that won him the yoruba support he had,while he remained igbo to the core.

after baptism you are a new creature, all your sins are washed away.
when you are dipped means you die unto christ and all your sins are buried in the water,
when you are lifted, you ressurect unto new life, like a baby without sin.
then you start a xtian life.
