West Africans don't travel far from their abode historically....


That's why u find NOK arts here and no where else....


They had no sophisticated means of transportation

Just try and look at it again because that's what they want you to think or know.

ANAMBRA MAN OF THE YEAR: THE SEARCH BEGINS

Since the history of man, advancement in civilization has always been wrought by men who had a higher sense of purpose, who went beyond self to create and chart new courses for the entire human race. For them, life is measured by its donation. It is about sacrifice and service for the upliftment of others.

Anambra State, the pride of the East, boasts of numerous accomplished and exceptional personalities cutting across several fields, ranging from billionaire businessmen to captains of industry, world famous literary and music stars, successful sportsmen and great professionals. In fact, it is said that for every kilometer radius in Nnewi, there is a billionaire. However, there seems to be a disconnect from the sense of community, the ancient and eternal principle of our ancestors embedded in the phrase "onye aghana nwanne ya" (Be your brother's keeper). This is made possible by the monumental rise of individualism, the notion that wealth is measured by consumption and not by impact, that all there is to wealth are kilometer long convoys, private jets, large parties and gigantic mansions. The newest competition, it seems, is "My Mercedes is bigger than yours".

But that was not how our forebears lived in a balanced society, at peace with one another and with nature. That was not how we survived the genocidal civil war and rose up from the ashes of ruin. A story was told of Anthropologist Margaret Mead who was asked by a student on what she considered the first sign of civilization in a culture. The student was itching to hear Mead talk about fish hooks or clay pots. But Mead instead opined that the first sign of civilization in an ancient culture was a femur(thigh bone) that had been broken and then healed. According to the learned Professor, in the animal kingdom, having a broken femur was a death sentence. The animal can neither run from danger nor hunt for food let alone getting to the river for a drink. Obviously, she continued, no animal survives a broken leg long enough for the bone to heal. A broken femur that has healed is evidence that someone has taken time to nurse the wound and tended the person through recovering. Helping someone through difficulty is where civilization starts said Mead. We are at our best when we serve others.

And that is the essence of the search for the Anambra man of the year. It is meant to refocus the societal compass towards the sense of community, to once again turn the perspective of ndi Anambra beyond the here and now and onto something much bigger than ourselves with a keen sense of posterity.

The ideals of a society is defined by the heores they choose. The Anambra man of the year should be a figure who inspires through extraordinary deeds of triumphant beauty. He should have an elevated sense of wealth, seeing it not from the prism of acquisition of toys to flatter the ego of the owner and traumatize his community, making the poor to feel their poverty, but as a vehicle and a tool for communal advancement. The Igbo word for wealth is aku na uba. Aku loses its essence without uba. The uba implies employing the aku for the benefit and advancement of the community. A standalone aku is a narrow, selfish and underdeveloped sense of wealth. It is an aberration in traditional Igbo society.

The Anambra man of the year should have a higher sense of purpose, hitching his cart to values larger than himself. He should be am embodiment of sacrifice and full of compassion. He should be shown to understand the interconnectedness of the human race, for it is in lifting others that we are lifted.

The Anambra man of the year doesn't need to be a Saint. He is human too, with great challenges and frailties. It is having these shortcomings that gives him the human connection necessary to truly inspire us, urging us to become the better versions of ourselves for our fellow ndi Anambra and for the entire human race.

Who will the cap fit as Anambra man of the year 2020? Let the search begin.

MuttleyLaff:
You've shifted from "Greek philosophy and the Roman concepts" to now "India subcontinent Hindu Lord Shiva" What is the matter with you sef gangan, hmm?

I applauded Martian for having the chutzpah to give his way of looking at and thinking of the questions, unlike someone like you, who the questions have you clammed up, lmso

Yahshua Ha Mashiah, aka Jesus Christ, is the author and perfecter of my faith, there is no chance of ice in the Lake of fire that I'll lose grip of my faith in Him nor the redemption, reconciliation and salvation works He's done

Another fake faith, after dancing clapping and being happy for your Hindu Lord Shiva you want to turn around and flex with the Christian faith keep on changing colour like a chameleon.

I WILL SAY AGAIN SO MUCH FOR YOUR CHRISTIANITY.

letu hasn't got half your balls, lmso

You've already been exposed, keep on clapping for your Lord Shiva come to think of it are you now loosing the grip of faith that you have in Jesus that your now spicing it up with the India subcontinent Hindu Lord Shiva , keep on clapping and worshipping your Lord Shiva thinking that you're doing anything to me, so much for your faith in Christian Religion .

Have a stab nah?
No, there is no Greek philosophy and the Roman concepts there my mehn.
What's your responses to the easy, peasy, lemon, squeezy, ten bitsy questions.

Free your self from Greco Roman philosophy/ concepts.

NgwalandAbia:
You must be drunk to write this, We have no single muslim in Abia...99 percent Christians and 1 percent traditionals.

The OP also made reference to the jews leaving in Aba town, what do you think about that have you ever seen this utopian Jews of Aba town which the op is referring to eg the pictures below .

Nigercity:
1st pics: entrance into Ariaria Town

2nd and 3rdpics: entrance into obikabia town Aba

Well it's also ABA NGWA because the indigene of Aba and origin, yes Obikabia is part of Aba town but also part of Obingwa L G A so no need for you to keep doing what you're obviously doing by intentionally squeezing the whole of L G A that makes up Ngwa land into Aba, try and speak of all other part of Ngwa L G A that are part of Aba town .

Righteousness89:
My Friend keep quiet!
The Bible is the Standard!
The Bible will always be Foolishness to those that Perish!

There is Nothing Else to use but the Bible.
That is the Guide for All of Humanity!

You Believe or you Don't does not Change it!
The Word of GOD will not Change because of you or me or anyone!

You sound like the Colonial Pastor's/reverend father's after conquering our land they gave our parents the Bible inwhich behind this is what they were busy doing to their daughters eg the picture below etc.


THE WHITE COLONIALISTS AND THEIR PASTOR'S/REVEREND FATHER'S ARE AS FAKE AS HUMAN BEINGS CAN BE, THEY WERE NOT INSPIRED BY GOD IN ANY WAY.

MuttleyLaff:
For DrLiveLogic and any interested interlocutor(s):

1/ Name who principally or primary are in the Godhead (i.e. Elohim) of Genesis 1:27
2/ At what point did God, the Spirit become God the Father, what point did the Word, (i.e. Logos) become the Son, and what point did the seven distinct expression of the God, the Spirit, become the Holy Spirit?
3/ Is God resigned and/or limited to just Three Persons?
4/ What is God's name? What is the implication of this name that God didnt reveal to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob?
5/ Is the answer given in #4a above really God's personal name?
6/ What fundamental problems was God solving that necessitated the creation of mankind? (i.e. A&E and their progeny)
7/ Did God have an objective to achieve and purpose for creating A&E?
8/ Would you agree that "Though this be madness, yet there is method in it?"
9/ Is it hard or impossible for God to project Himself out, so to simultaneously and/or concurrently exist on earth and Heaven?
10/ Give two examples of a Being that has demonstrated the ability and power to see into humans' heart, know their thoughts, tell what they're thinking, or what they desire. In other words, here is one from 1 Samuel 9:19 and 1 Samuel 10:19&26, so please give your two different examples please

This questions of yours are filled with bunch of Greek philosophy and the Roman concepts, well I will say that your question is best suited for the Greek's and Roman priest's eg Pictures below .

Futurejoy:
There is a part of Abia state that share boundary with that community, I also heard they eat humans too they mostly lay their ambush in their market ...I heard they sell human meat there but I haven’t really confirmed.

the town your speaking about is Aba town well go to Aba town and Aba people will eat you .

I saw on that thread where you told donnie that ignorance is one problem he has and further that, please this is not insult, but you are just stating an obvious truth, how he took it badly and in his typical Machiavellian style, went cannibalistic on you, lmso.

I left my responses to the thread unfinished on my laptop, lmso

no problems.

Continuation,

3) Every people/tribe on planet earth already have their own place set apart for them by the Most High Lord Almighty, of course no one goes into another place that's isn't set apart for his or her ancestors/people in the afterlife, each of this various places where the dead will be gathered with their ancestors/people each have an Angel of the Most High Lord Almighty guarding it or incharged of any of this various places and this things/message where deliberately taking away from the scriptures/Bible or hidden in a plain sight, I also know that some people will ignorantly accused me of ancestor's worship well I will say it here that I don't practice such, I'm simply saying that Which is obvious and nothing more.

More, (2)

1) When someone one is dead the person will be gathered with his or her ancestors/people in the afterlife, example of this can be seen in the Bible chapters.

2) Also this place where the dead will gathered with his or her ancestors/people, there is a separation eg wall or structure that divide the righteous and the unrighteous, example of this can also be seen in the Bible which is the story of the rich man and Lazarus ( Luke 16 v 19 ---- 26 ) .

7BigSquids:
They will call them fake igbos. Sick pipu

Some Human beings have proven to be unable to learn from history, in the old days we were all blacks or brown people but today in the present many ancient land's/kingdom of black people have changed from black people to white people, the thing now is that we the present day black/brown people keep the same history over and over without learning and correcting the past.

eg the pictures below.

gidgiddy:
A situation where half of Egbema is in Imo state(Ohaji-Egbema LGA) and the other half is Rivers state(Egbema Ndoni LGA) is just strange.

In reality, Egbema, Obigbo and Etche should all have been in Imo state. Thats where they all were before being carved into Rivers state

Obigbo have always been part of Abia State there will be no need to further divide Ndoki Asa people if this boundary adjustment thing happens, I will prefer them the Obigbo in Rivers State to be merge and join their brothers and sisters in Abia State.

OK2NVME:
If You Love The Jew, Then You Must Love The Fulani

This statement, our you saying that the FULANIS are Jewish in Origin.

Macsjebs:

You mean an Albino Lion.

donnie:
Guess you also have some nice things to say about this star our people worship.

Ignorance is one problem you have, please this is not insult I'm just stating an obvious truth. Well i will also say this to you nobody worship that hexagram symbol that you posted, that hexagram is a symbol that represents many things but I'm not going to explain everything to you , I hope you know the exact meaning of symbol.

NkanAkpanika:
In living memory of Samuel Bill wife...

People often think that Roman Catholics are the only Christians that practice/mixing all this pagan practice with their Christian Religion but the truth is that all Christian Churches are as guilty as the Roman Catholics in one way or the other, so here in this topic the OP posted a Paganismm/Pagan rituals of serving and honouring the dead can be seen clearly inwhich I say so much for Christianity, white people and their 419 of brain washing, before anyone who feels like saying anything to me well I'm also a Christian but that won't stop me from saying the truth .
