This is getting annoying , how come each time a person is asking for directions on how to travel abroad most pple in diaspora will be discouraging the person.

If it's dat terrible why are u still there?

You enjoy the benefits of living in an organised society, knowing fully well that naija is a difficult place to live.

Are u scared of the competition the new immigrants will bring?

Nigerians in diaspora , what exactly are u afraid off??
The best diaspora is what your inner head whispers to your heart. Follow your passion!

Each to its own. What someone died trying to achieve could very well be the avenue for your fame and success.

I like that room in your profile, so comfy and inviting. Where is the bed? Me wan lay down... grin

Modified ..
Stage 1= Nnamdi Kanu will rot in jail
Stage 2=He begged for his release
Stage 3=He won't meet up with the bail conditions because nobody takes him serious
Stage 4= This senator is an enemy of the state and his source of income must be questioned.
Patiently waiting for stage 5.
In fact, some of u should deactivate your accounts and face your miserable lives.
Very shameless and hopeless set of human beings.
God bless Umuchineke
After the bail ruling, before the sun had set on that Tuesday, yanminris should have collected money from different sources and pooled together to make bail. That will shut your enemies from saying nonsense. But here we are Friday and you are just making the bail, three times the sun had risen betqeen the judgement and the bail. You have given your enemies reason to say...

Someone like Uzor Kalu, Chris Maduka,Ubah brothers...all these people should have like 1billion naira offered to the Ibo senator to go forward.

1 - Ibo money is not clean, rich Ibos fail to come forward in fear of EFCC

2 - Ibos dont love Kanu,only using hin for political gain

3 - Why is Kanu still in lock up, awaiting rescue?

4 - You all say you are Jews. Is there no Ibo Jew good enough to go get him out? Where is your claim to judaism now?

5 - yanminris have betrayed Kanu.

However, OLOGUN KUTERE'S FATHER WAS AN IJESHA/ILESHA man and from a NOBLE FAMILY AND SPIRITUALLY SOUND, WHO MARRIED AKINSEMOYIN'S SISTER. HAVE YOU NOW SEE THE TRUTH ABOUT WHO WAS THE FATHER OF AKIOLU ?

ALL THE KINGS THAT HAVE RULED FROM OLOGUN KUTERE ARE HIS DESCENDANTS.

WHERE WILL LOYALTY LIES?

LET NOT OVER FLOGGED THIS ISSUE.
AKIOLU CAME INTO BECOMING KING BECAUSE OLORUN, LO GBA FUN, BUT HE BLUNDERED WITH SUCH ACTION. EVERY YORUBA PERSON KNOWS HIS OR HER LINEAGE .

CLOSE CASE
God Bless you!

Igodomigodo is Edo, not Bini.
Bini is Yoruba, not Edo.

Edo is the land, Bini is the throne and the Crown.


Sometimes these guys disguise and intentionally open a controversial point of history so they can hear us talk and as we do they are taking notes.

They get enough knowledge that they create a Yoruba name and start using what we taught them as accounts of legitimacy and belonging.

I once encountered a Ibo boy in scholarship interview. He knew more about Lagos Island than some of the true sons and daughters of Island. He said he was coached the history by his father. He was detected simply because as impressive as his knowledge when asked to name the orisha of Iga Oshodi he got it correctly and when asked to name that of Iga Jakande he blundered. To clarify, he was asked to give history of Epetedo. He failed that too. His family had lived in five wards on Island.

So we need to be reflective when setting people like this OP straight. We should turn the table upon them and challenge them on their own history, than entertain their enquiry into our history.

Odua a Gbe wa!

kramer:
I wonder if you bothered to actually put your pride and emotions aside and research what Mayoroflagos is saying. Just a quick look on Wikipedia says Onitsha itself was founded by a Benin prince in the 1500s so there might be some truth to what he's saying. Granted it doesn't mean that the link between the two kingdoms still exist but there may have been one back then.

Source:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onitsha

Actual reference: Henderson, Richardl N. (1972). The King in Every Man: Evolutionary Trends in Onitsha Ibo Society and Culture. Yale University Press. pp. 42–46. ISBN 0-300-01292-6.
Thank you my brother! grin

He dropped off, I was setting a trap for him to walk into and then lock him in but he must have sensed my mischief and abandoned the argument.

Taking Onitsha as central, there are kings in the four cardinal directions as you go North into Igala, South into Ijaw, East into Wawa and West into Bini.

The rituals of coronation and court protocols have cognates only in the Westerly direction. The first kingdom where you find exhibit of commonality with Onitsha coronation rites is Agbor. Next is Ika. The paraphernalia of throne and regal authority in Agbor is consistent with that of a first class Bini war Chief. I suspect Agbon is what is corrupted to Agbor, in like manner that Orisha was corrupted to become Onitsha. In the case of the Obi, his ancestors were Priests of Bini, hence the Orisha cognomen.

In the case of Dein, his ancestors were War Chiefs of Bini, hence the totem of Agbon.

No where else, North, South, East, we find articles of coronation in Onitsha to match with that of a neighbouring monarch.

Agbon is wasp and the totem of warrior chiefs. If they are cavalry their totem is Agbo, the ram!

Wasp is adopted as symbolism for those who are master archers, their crafts is bow and arrow.
It flies, it carries feathers and it stings....just like the wasp!

Ram is adopted as symbolism for those who are fearless, they rush in with impulsive energy and only think later after the deed is done, they ride on horse back and charge forward with speed to deliver deadly blows....just like the temperament of a ram, an animal on four legs bearing horns that deliver fatal strikes.


These goons think they know history. I bring history google is yet to discover, and I show convincing proof. grin grin

PoliticsRe: The Oba of Lagos pubclicly disgraces the Ooni of Ife in Lagos (Video) by MayorofLagos(m): 7:21am On Apr 26, 2017
I think the reason Oba Akiolu is uncooperative is in line with the case of Oba Ademiluyi of Ife, who was arrested in Ife, and till today still in detention, although relocated back to Osun.

Ooni failed to exercise his duty and power of influence more decisively in the Ife crisis. It coincided with a pre-scheduled tour of England. He failed to cancel the trip. In addition, he attended the university graduation of Shahada Sanusi and was seen standing next to Emir Sanusi, while back home his own Oba was being locked up. A very bad political decision and moves! Not well calculated!

That outcome might not be unconnected with Oba Akiolu's action in this public function.

You all have not been paying attention but three Obas in Yorubaland share same temperament on politics and society and they dont take bullshyte from anyone...in public gathering of traditional rulers you will see the three sit in very close proximity and within ear shot of one another.
Two of them in particular are socialites and are often in public functions together.

Oba Akiolu is one. Name the other two! grin

A Jewish leader is compulsory in this matter because the IPOB are of Jew generation, they have been displaying and having a lot to shown the world that their DNA is of Jewish origin ..
Justice Binta is very crafty. Notice she did not say a person of Israel, which would ordinarily carry a narrow interpretation on the basis of citizenship of the nation of Israel; instead, the demand is broadened to the global population. She invoked a requisite of legitimacy for Judaism.

In a time after which both England and France declared to world press Biafra will not be allowed, which well known Jewish leader will now come forward to rescue Kanu, without first obtaining Kanu's commitment to distance himself and dissociate from Biafra?

In effect Binta is telling Kanu to dissociate from Biafra and walk free or cling to it and rot in prison.

Tell yourself whatever you like. You can't tell Igbos who they are just like i can't tell you who you are.

Nigeria is divided into ethnic groups and every ethnic group has different traditional rulers and as much as the Ooni of Ife is more prominent than the Obi of Onitsha, his kingship does not cross Yorubaland. No non Yoruba traditional ruler is obliged to pay homage to him. Only Yoruba obas can do that. That's how Nigeria is. Don't try to change it with your warped machinations.
Im not telling you who you are....im telling you who your Obi is.

Nigeria, at 57, is not even a day old when scaled against the tradition that birthed the Onitsha stool. Under Federal Character, yes you can assert anything you want....under customs you have no such liberty.

Tell me where the Obi stool came from, detail the rites of coronation and give give the crown itself an Ibo cultural context. Do it....

Like i said, the Obi of Onitsha is an Igbo king and has nothing to do with Oba of Benin or Yoruba Monarchy. If the Oba of Benin accepts that he's under the Ooni, that's his business, but no Igbo king has anything to do with any monarchical system outside Igboland.
Its on record that your Obi derived his power from Benin. You can dispute and revise it and position it in any ethnic color you like....if you like sef call him Jewish King, still....the stool he sits on came from Benin.
