Konquest: ^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^ Now to my 2nd post, but 1st question to you @IgalaSchool:
1. What is COCK called in Igala language? Cock is called Akuko in Yoruba. Cock is called Okuko in Ibo.
So I believe it is through the Igala land bridge that the near-similarities in spelling among the Yoruba and Ibo.
There is Igala ancestry/bloodline in 13 of the 21 LGAs in Anambra state alone!
2. What do you call STONE in Igala. Yorubas call it Okuta. Ibos call it Okwute.
3. The name Anambra is a British corruption of the Igala word/phrase: Omaobala. What does Omaobala mean in Igala? OMA is child in Igala so what is the full meaning of Omaobala?
4. I have seen Omambala being used as the name of the River that Anambra was named after. I have also seen another spelling of Omaobala.
Which of the 2 spellings is correct?
5. Praise Ugbede Adejo(Praiz is Igala) What is the full meaning of Ugbede? and What does the name Adejo mean?
Ade simply means crown in Yoruba, so does the "Ade" in Adejo also refer to a crown?
I'll stop right here and it is my wish that this thread will serve as a source of enlightenment for the benefit of all knowledge seekers. 
#Loving Igala Nation
All the best!
PS: It is very clear that Igalas are direct ancestral cousins to the Yorubas, Jukuns, Binis, and Ibos from HRM Attah Michael Ameh Oboni's 2-page interview in Saturday Punch of August 26, 2017. 1. Ayiko 2. Okputa 3. Child of a cat 5. Servant of God |

amunkita: It's sayz, he belonged to a syndicate that duped such.. If he belonged, what part did he play Etim, 30, who is said to be a member of a syndicate of fraudsters operating in the Lekki area of Lagos, among other alleged offences, obtained the sum of $4,000 USD from a victim in Singapore, after posting a dog for sale on an online platform.read the sentence again. It wasn't the syndicate that duped the victim or posted the image of a dog for sale, it was Etim. And being a member of a criminal organisati0n warrants an arrest if authority catches the pers0n. Its just like saying police shouldn't arrest s0me0ne linked to bokoharam becos he hasn't been caught with a b0mb. Or s0me0ne who's a member of a kidnap or robbery gang. |

Hedonistically: Can you imagine such watery and nonsensical charges? How is it a crime in itself to have several inflows of money into one's account in spite of not having a "stable job"? And which law makes a person culpable for not being able to "satisfactorily account for" money in his possession?
The EFCC is full of retarrrds and barely literate nincompoops, mostly of Northern origin. This is why the agency is so clueless and inefficient. Instead of you to carry out thorough investigations and gather water tight evidence, you would conduct stupid raids and charge people to court for flimsy reasons. After you would blame 'corrupt judges" for your inability to secure convictions. Etim, 30, who is said to be a member of a syndicate of fraudsters operating in the Lekki area of Lagos, among other alleged offences, obtained the sum of $4,000 USD from a victim in Singapore, after posting a dog for sale on an online platform. |

dukie25: Buhari himself have been in 3 political parties. 1.ANPP 2.CPC 3.A.P.C
Why call Atiku political prostitute when Buhari have defected or created parties more than Atiku? As soon as Buhari is denied the presidential ticket, he creates a new one or merge his useless party with another equally useless party.
APC are just mad that Obanikoro joined them and Atiku went the opposite way. Obanikoro is now a saint  hey, buhari didn't decamp to apc. His party merged to form Apc. Get ur facts straight. And his move to Cpc came with a c0ncrete reason and n0t close to an election time. Get ur facts straight. And, am n0t a fan of Buhari either. I hate when people lie just to justify s0mething. |

And for Arrow, Oliver's i.d as the G. A would end up being a public identity. Seas0n 7 could deal with Oliver's life as a fugitive trying to clean his image. |

TonySpike: This was the smiling and hopeful Superman y'all wanted. lol. Aside the cgi mustache thingy, i really enjoyed Henry cavill's portrayal of supes in JL. He smiled when situati0n called for it. I guess any0ne would be happy waking up to meet his hot girlfriend by his side after m0nths of been away or dead. The thought of even going back to bang her after the stress would make any0ne happy. If i was supes, and my 1st sight after rising fr0m the dead with n0 weight on my shoulderz was Lois Lane, i'd be happy. Supes indeed had reas0ns to be happy in JL unlike what people wanted in MOS and BvS with0ut caring if the story called for it. |

badinfluence: Lately, you've been coming across as an envious fellow.. Hope it's paying off for you.. seriously i d0n't understand what u guys mean by envy. Is it envy if u point out the bias critics have against s0me products when reviewing it? If it was, then i guess envy made martin luther or malcolm x fight for blacks' rights in america. These critics favor s0me products bt if other products produce s0mething different, they bash it and wish they made it like the favoured product. And if they did the exact thing, they trash it despite having praised the former for same fault. These are c0mm0n tropes that need to be pointed out so people will kn0w their view is what matterz instead of the views of opini0n leaderz. Envy is when i start hating the avengers or a product cos of the m0ney it makes. Am n0t envious, and bro drop this marvel/dc thingy, i d0n't do such. You needn't reply me when i gave my review of JL, rather u drop ur alternative opini0n of it. I stated mine, u weren't forced to accept it. |

I aint being paid self so why would i envy any c0mpany? What i pointed out in my short review is the level of critical backlash facing DC films by critics whereas other films are given the soft spot. Look at the ghostbusters female film, whiplash in ir0n man 2 and tell me those films deserve the level of praise they got. They make these films lo0k like they are disasters when there are s0me that are outrightly bad but given a pass. Drop this marvel/dc thingy, do u think steppenwolf or jl deserved the bashing it got? |

Justice League was dope. The famous shirt rip scene. The villain was okay bt n0t bad like its being made out to be. Bad is what whiplash was in ir0n man 2 bt then, that m0vie got a higher rating. There are faults in it like in every m0vie but n0t the way critics make it out to be. Aquaman was funny, that lasso scene had me laughing. And, diana punched Bruce. JL 8/10. |

DATS D WAY IGBOS R. IF U UNDERSTAND D COMPLEXITY OF ANCIENT GREEKS, DEN U WILL UNDERSTAND IGBOS. oh, igbos aren't jews again? Okay. But we are still saying the same thing na. They only unite when they feel threatened by an enemy, and thats a human instinct. Oh, you think 2 enemies will sit back and watch a predator raid them without joining hands to fight it and later think of their differences after defeating it? Thats n0t unity. Its called an individual instinct for one's own survival. Unity is when one is happy with his neighbor and would be there to offer support even if he has n0thing to gain. Most igbos i kn0w only think of 2 things, their individual profit or loss. One with such mind wouldn't want to rub minds with an0ther if he has n0thing to profit. Unity is when u lo0k out for the other guy except yourself. Or is it n0t on nairaland that it was posted that Father Mbaka attested to the Anambra people seeing themselves as superior igbos and the ebonyi folk as inferior? Enugu can't marry imo person. Was it n0t on nairaland it was posted that a c0mmunity in an igbo state protested against the transfer of a bishop by the pope simply because he was fr0m an0ther state despite being an igbo man? We hear the stories everyday. Is it n0t in igbo land, a man who has made it fears returning to his people for fear of death? Thats unity for you bro. Thats unity. |

realhumanity: With people having differing views, it means it is not a statement of fact but a statement of personal experience which cannot be generalized. A tribe is made up of people of different characters, so we can generalize based on some ppl attitude. good. But then again if by statement of pers0nal experience is majority of people's opinion abt the igbos, isn't that equal to generalisation since majority translates to general opini0n of people? N0t that am trying to say i am right bt i do love an intelligent and healthy argument. And, the other guy did say it was his many yearz of study of 'these people'. What if he's fallacy was in his interacti0ns, association with the bad eggs am0ng the igbos who to him c0nstitutes the majority of the igbo? I believe badness/evilness or g0odness is in character and pers0n n0t in tribe, bt people tend to associate it m0re with tribe if many fr0m a tribe display such traits, which is wr0ng. But then every0ne has his own opini0n that needs to be respectd n0t c0ndemned. |

WE IGBOS MAY NOT B UNITED IN SOME ISSUES BUT WEN WE HAVE A COMMON ENEMY, DATS WEN U WILL C D POWER OF D IGBO PPLE. BUT WEN WE HAVE A COMMON ENEMY, DATS WEN U WILL C D POWER OF D IGBO PPLE lols thats the human mentality for u. We all unite when we have a c0mm0n enemy bt unity against a c0mm0n enemy isn't the same as unity of ideas or objective. If indeed u guys were united, you guys would've voted ojukwu in 1999, 2003, 2007 to be Nigeria's president n0t the pdp or the yoruba ewedu eaterz or hausa/fulani terrorists who are ur c0mm0n enemies like you did en masse in those listed years lols. I respect u and ur views as a person bt bro, the fact is clear. Unity isn't by uniting to face a c0mm0n threat, thats humanity's basic instinct. Russia, u. S, china, german, n0rth korea will unite today if there was an alien threat of global proporti0ns, and thats n0t cause they love each other or are friends or united, but cause of the threat.

Anyway, it seems WB never learnt their lessons after super-editing Suicide Squad and BVS. I guess the lower opening weekend returns will teach them a good lesson at least! Justice league only made $96 million this weekend, even lower than Wonder Woman's opening weekend. good. Isn't it m0ney they want? M0ney they shall get.

TonySpike: Some info on deleted and changed scenes from Justice League. Some of the scenes were very cool: Check this out. This dude on DCEU leaks reddiit posted this about other deleted scenes:
LONGER: History Lesson. But just by some bits. What I was most surprised by was that WB cut out dialogue by the Green Lantern, Zeus and even Ares (Yes, he was there too). They had a couple of lines each. As did Robin Wright and Hippolyta. They just kept the action in and clicked out all dialogue, DELETED - Cyborg's previous life. He plays a great football match that his MOTHER (Yes, she was cast as well) attends. Afterwards, they drive home. Victor is angry that his Dad never made it while his mother tries to console him. Victor just keeps getting angry and lashing out, loses control of the car - causing a fiery crash. How could WB and whedon do this to us? I guess agent whed0n finally succeeded in his mission sent by his handler kevin feige, lols |
