People condemning him are same people whose contribution to Nigeria is excessive loan approval

Please how much is this buglary?

@bold...yes of course I agree and I have never ever doubted that some Nsukkas have Igala ancestry. I spent 6 years in Nsukka land and once in a while you'll come across some Nsukka people that physically look just different from the typical range of Igbo physical looks. Yes, some Igala people settled in Nsukka land, just as some Bini people settled around the fringes of Western Igboland, however, this does not change the narrative and history of the host town. We all come from somewhere but your identity today is what identifies you, not what you were 300 years ago.

Igboland in the past seemed to have accommodated substantial migrants and runaways from other tribes versus the opposite and what has not been studied yet is why was this so? What seemed attractive about the Igbo-speaking area that many fleeing members from other tribes headed east whenever they were escaping danger or persecution? Descendants of Igala, Yoruba (Odiani in Delta state), Bini/Esan etc. can all be found in Igboland and one thing is generally common among these migrants - they were fleeing the anger or persecution of a certain ruling king. Did the migrating forefathers find the Igbo republican system of government (plus the greater freedom that comes with it) more attractive vs the more restrictive system of a central ruler-ship that they were fleeing from? Or were there more arable soil and agricultural opportunities in this area (which would make them economic migrants, no different from Nigerians migrating to the west for better economic opportunities) that they were hoping to benefit from? Whatever the reason for migration was, these migrants were most often welcome, given lands to settle in, the male migrants most likely married females from their host community and their next generation were definitely native or bilingual speakers of the language of their host community. With time, these first and second generation migrants sought to blend in socially and culturally into their host community and having a strong grasp of the language of their host community was key to getting recognized as members of 'son of the soil' (this can be likened to how most migrants applying for citizenship in several foreign countries - Germany, US, France, Spain etc., have to demonstrate fluency in the country's language to be accorded citizenship, but being able to speak the country's official language should never stop the migrant from speaking their own native language or passing it on to their children). It is clear to us all that ancient Igboland never participated in land or language expansionist regimes, thus anyone who adopted Igbo as their native language did so willingly or out of social adaptation. Igbo was hardly ever forced down on others to be spoken. With time, the migrant population grew to be recognized as a village of theirs, often taking on the 'umuxyz' prefix in harmony with their host community. Whenever a few migrants or in the hundreds migrated across linguistic borders, they always had to blend into the language and culture of their host community, and never the reverse.

I came across an article on the Nsukka Asadu history and how the Igala influence in Nsukka may have been blown out of proportion than necessary.

Speaking of cultural exchange, there's actually more Igbo influence on the Igala than there is Igala on the Igbo but the reverse is hardly ever spoken about.

reading your comment is just time well spent. You made it possible that one can have a civil conversation and this part of our history and not just shout it down.


The three towns I mentioned are the towns that I know that their ancestors were migrants to Igbo land. People have been here before they came and there's no disputing that.

Onitsha, Nnewi and Nsukka were founded by migrants from different places

babadots:
Does this mean that you are still unwilling to recommend these guys, even for the sake of the quality of their work? I can wait for quality, the only problems I have with workmen is good quality and honesty with money.

If you can vouch for them in terms of money matters, then I think they should be good for me boss.

why not give us a chance to work for you boss. I may not have the big recommendation from oga Spyder yet because we're yet to work together but I can assure you about the quality of my works.

I'm taking nothing away from what these guys did. It's magnificent

Takoro13:
thanks sr

for more professional advice, contact me on 07032fourfour6904

spyder880:
Thank you bro, we will work together soon.

I hope so bro.

Inside the house, on the stairs..........

these wrought iron works are too fine abeg. Tell that welder that did those that a fellow welder respects his skills.

Fine work for a fine house for a fine engineer

Badgers14:
The building is 2 storey building.. planning to install between 4-6 tanks of 750gallons

the height should be at least 35ft and the H channel used should be 6by4. So the cost should be around 650 to 800k. Depending on what you agree on, you should provide the cement, sand and gravel for the foundation but every other thing is on the welder. That's how I work though bi don't know about others.


PS all these are preliminary costs sir. The land and how level the land is will determine final price.

Your negotiating skills too

Badgers14:
That's what I need, the cost of the job from start to finish..

Thanks in advance

what's the building height and how many tanks do you intend to install.

Takoro13:
good day to ogas,

between a main entrance door with imbedded burglary proof and a separate door and a separate burglary proof hang around the outside arch/beam

which one is best security against DEM?

use this to secure your entrance and then do another door separately. You can get one with embedded security door.

Badgers14:
How much would a water tank cost?

Water tank for upto six 750 gallons.

Materials plus installation.

Cc: michlins

I can only tell you the cost of doing the job from start to finish. I don't know the cost of tanks. It varies from place to place

chimexdnice1:
What about if the concrete is covered with tiles?
Is that a good option?

eventually the concrete will give way and cracks will show up

Sparks026:
Please how much estimate will it cost to make this handrail (12ft) with 1.5mm thick black pipes. Thank you

that rail will be done for about 20,000 here in Nnewi Anambra State. I don't know your location and the cost of materials


PS attached photo is more expensive oh cause it's made with wrought iron and not 1.5mm square pipe

tonididdy:
Do not go the concrete way... Do an iron tank stand of about 16-18ft for optimum pressure level and it cost about 110 to 150,000. This stand can take up to 4 tanks (ensure to discuss this with your welder before contracting the work out)...

Ps: the price maybe cheaper if you want just a 2 tank stand max or even 1tank.

As for the advice against concrete: it's different shades of wahala

16ft for that building is an over kill. 10ft will do the job perfectly for a table land. Add a foundation of 2ft tall and you get 12ft tall tank and it will work perfectly for any bungalow

Fixed@bolded.

What nonsense. Na only UNN be university that is in Igboland ??

Your logic is warped and full of nonsense. Contain your history within your home and zone.. period.

we're yet to talk about the universities in Igbo land. Keep this conversation entirely in the context of history and don't divert. Na like this you kids without history will be making noise online.

PS you are yet to say a single thing about your history which is why we're here abi you don't know anything about it. Ask your father, there are chances that he might know. Or better still, leave your phone and go to orizu palace and learn stuff

Osagyefo98:
Long story cut short, Mr face Enugu state and nsukka precisely and stop meddling and distorting other people's history..QED.

You are an igala man, did I argue that with you...No?


But don't come here to rewrite another man's history so that it might look like yours and above all an outsider for that matter...be guided.

All of you from other states should stop that nonsense of claiming to know someone's history more than them and be feeling confident in their Ignorance.

Take that useless logic to enugu state and avoid anambra state with such petty lies..

All these Bia mbiri and their oversabi attitude.

oga of you're from Nnewi, just know that you are probably a descendant of Ezemewi who comes from Bini kingdom in the 1600. Chances are that you are even an "Osu" or "Ohu" and you will come online and be claiming "Nwa afọ,"

bigfrancis21:
This still does not negate my earlier post. You are taking a portion of Nsukkas that originated from Igala and are generalizing it to the entire Nsukka people. The Igala settlers met Igbo speaking natives there and acculturated, hence the few Igala surnames here and there, which are relics of Igala migrants. This is very common sense.

It is well known that in the past Igalas had a very strong penchant for moving southwards to Igboland, invading and relocating. They settled in a few numbers across the Igbo-Igala border.

Your great great grand father might have been from Igala (which makes you an immigrant settler), however, majority of Nsukka (at least 90%) are native Igbos. Feel free to relocate to Idah or Kogi state if you strongly identify with your Igala ancestry however, leave the native Nsukka Igbos out of this.

now let me school you further,the three clans that make up Nsukka called "nkpunato" which comprises of Eha Alumona, agbamere and "Nsukka asadu" were brothers. It happened that when the British came and we're engaging with folks,the eldest amongst them who is Eha Alumona told them to meet the last child "Nsukka asadu" and they had their dealings with him. That particular place is the down that hosts UNN. Remove that institution from Igbo land and tell me what is left.


We all came from somewhere irrespective of where we are now. We shouldn't deny our history just because of our current feud with our place of origin. Even in your present day Anambra,there are Igala settlers. They were the people who welcomed the people from Bini kingdom and later formed the present day Onitsha town.

These things are basic history but this country takes no interest in it because the politicians wants us the ordinary people divided. Imagine northern Nigeria loosing the igalas and many other tribes because we realized that we're same people.

I personally don't like Nnamdi Kanu but if you listen to him,he would explain to you why history is scrapped from our classes

spyder880:
Inside .........

sir your work needs our work. Call us and you will never regret that you did.

Osagyefo98:
You are an outsider and no need glorifying your ignorance.

You as a stranger are in no position to tell people their own history. Never done

oga you don't know your history. Tribalism has eaten deep inside you that your stomach turns when you learnt that the Yoruba people you detest so much might be your ancestors.

Where are you from and maybe I can teach you something you don't know about your place

bigfrancis21:
That’s wrong. Nsukka people are from Nri (Nshi). Ask your grandfather what onye ishi means. Some Igalas did migrate and settle in Nsukka land but this was as recently as the 1800s and they form about 2% of the population. I spent 6 years I Nsukka land.

do you know the popular saying

"Eha Alumona ati Igala". Do you know what it means?

This is history and not sentimental stuff. We need to set the record straight and not twist it to suit our narrative

Osagyefo98:
Many will marvel at the rate of which you are confident in your Ignorance. The problem with most of you from other states is that you don't mind your business but go about with petty gossips.


Most wrong narratives here on nairaland are all spread from you guys from other states who has taken it up on themselves to tell the history of others rather than the people doing so themselves.

Even Achebe is right, because you guys aren't different from hunters distorting people history so that it may look like yours.

Nsukka are Igalas and so others here must be another thing maybe Bini..


Mind your space Mr

na only for Igbo land that someone born and bred will be seen as an outsider. Oga I know Nnewi history just like the back of my hand.


If you think you know better, I'm willing to listen and learn

Niger Delta states your problem isn't Tinubu or northern oligarchy. They're prolly businessmen. But you see those your elected officials, they are your bane

oyatz:
Excuse me bro, do you mean Innoson was already producing phones before?

before Tecno went into the smartphone business. When the likes of BlackBerry bold were the rave

Well Jonathan was Igbo guy but they didn't complete second Niger bridge, complete the Enugu Onitsha express.

Buhari is on course to finish those. So I kinda support him in this

IDENNAA:
Please, stop writing these crap. It hurts the eyes to read. Anthropological evidence shows Igbo is ancient to Bini. Oga, go drink garri

And , please , stop being unnecessarily confident of of what you know nothing about. Nnewi is related to their immediate neighbors like Ichi , Oraifite, Amichi , Ichida who migrated north of their present location from Isu homestead.

prairie, ichi and others are all ụmụ anaedo but trust Nnewi people and their segregation to tell you otherwise. The big question remains, where is Ezemewi from?

Until any of you can answer that, forget this discussion. But if you are up for it, let's go to the palace of igwe orizu and read about Nnewi and their ancient history

The op is funny. You went to the internet and picked photos of Innoson phones, business he had already abandoned and say he wants to get into it. I have operated Innoson phone almost a decade ago

Osagyefo98:
Lolzzzzz

Mr go to your nsukka igala kingdom and be telling them such stories and not to us...Heeeeee


Lol...I done laugh tire....


History of Nnewi from nsukka Igala kingdomlittle book of history..


Nobody will have time to add more energy to oozes of Ignorance..

for educational purposes, tell me the history of Nnewi of you know it at all.


One thing I noticed is that you throw insults everywhere without saying a single thing someone can learn from. The number of kids on this forum sha

ezechi24:
most times we just need to argue with what we see in our environment... for instance markets are opened and the crowd you see is overwhelming with no covid19 precautions, now this has been going on since 3weeks ago, but you still meet same market women strong and healthy, even here in delta state.... see make them stop this rubbish open every where mk people start their normal life .

and our cases rose from two hundred to six hundred daily. For your information these are the people wey go hospital oh. You will agree with me that majority of Nigerians self medicate and don't visit hospitals when sick. If you really want to see the real situation,go to a government owned hospital and see the number of people dying mysteriously. What you will hear is that s/he suffered from small illness and died upon getting to hospital.

Another thing you have to know is that if you are healthy, chances are that you will survive coronavirus with little or no medication. But should you have something like diabetes and long running diseases, it's game over for you unless God remember you

Osagyefo98:
Lol...Jesus Christ.


And Edo to you means Edo/Bini.....Lolzzzzzzzzz


Haaaaaaaaaa.....I just hear it all today. Anybody reading your statement will just laugh at the oozes of ignorance you are propagating.


All the way from your nsukka Igala kingdom, u came here to tell us that Edo is edo/Bini...Lolzzzzzzzzzzzzz


Young man no need arguing with overdose of ignorance. I am done.


Schooling me indeed... chaiii... characters full nairaland

Edo is the daughter of Idemili. To read hard you reach like this ni?

Hé came from Benin and married Edo daughter of Idemili. Who no understand this simple something biko

Osagyefo98:
Your forefathers from nsukka are Igalas and Benins and not Nnewi or Onitsha by any means. Reverse migration is not history.


Even someone from nsukka who has no origin will come here to tell igbos where they are from.


Remain with that your history in nsukka and Enugu state precisely.


Such hogwash is not needed in anambra state.

ezemewi who founded current Nnewi town came from Benin kingdom. Go to Igwe orizu palace and study history of Nnewi. Hé ezemewi married Edo daughter of Idemili. These things are simple facts that are obtainable. You were born Igbo today doesn't work mean your ancestors might not have come from elsewhere.

I will school you and your likes in the history of Nnewi

How the heck was swine flu a 100 times worse
You say influenza claims 50,000 lives yearly with little done about it but yet coronavirus despite the world shutting down and just about half the year gone has already claimed close to 600,000- more than ten times that number and increasing exponentially.Yet you say it's not a pandemic :-/
How do you reason?

I really thank you for correcting the fake news. People think this virus is a joke. A virus that is already mutating. We don't know what to do with the original one meanwhile Kazakhstan is reporting a new strain far more deadly than this one. They claim it's the original virus but WHO is raising alarm that this one is deadlier
