Politics / Re: Edo Market Women Protest Against Alleged Imposition Of Iyaloja Of Lagos by NaMe4: 8:55am On Jul 26
Osanoghodua1:
Edo has what's called Iyeki (Mother of Market) they only quit at death. Major markets in Benin has a deity, to be the mother of market is not a common feat, one must be spiritual this is why Edo market get as he be.

Yes.

The lady in the report is the Iyeki of Edo State. There are also Iyekis at the Local Government level and at the level of individual markets.

It's just their politics at a higher level making the Iyeki feel threatened.

What is more important at this time is curtailing the excesses of various unions in Edo State. But the State government seems to be docile due to politics. Same goes to the NURTW which has many of the commercial drivers going on a rampage of lawlessness in the State, leaving EDSTMA helpless about such situation.
Traffic laws are fast becoming applicable to only private residents of Edo State.

In Benin City about two weeks ago, these 6 would have been nothing less than 24k. In fact, would have been over 30k.

Police warning or police pleas?

my people say if a crocodile can eat its children, imagine what it will do to the flesh of a frog. The only working refinery in Nigeria wants to be frustrated so they can continue importing petroleum products that will not help our economy. Tinubu is failing. He should forget about second tenure o, because no one will vote for him.

My brother, this is the simple fact. Viewing some comments before yours, it's safe to say a lot of Nigerians are psychologically and intellectually impaired. Actually, this itself could be an effect of what someone like Seun Kuti would summarily term 'Organised Abandonment'.

Politics / Re: Ndokwa/ Ukwuani People Takes A Stand On The Ceding Of Anioma To South East by NaMe4: 2:37pm On Jul 17
gidgiddy:


It doesn't matter if Ndokwa/Ukwani are Igbo or not, it's just about 4 LGA's, insignificant in the wider scheme of things

But people should not be fooling themselves with this SE/SS matter

Neither South East nor South South are recognised in the constitution of Nigeria. You cannot belong to what does not exist in the eyes of the law

So if you say you want to be in the South South, or don't want to be in the South East, both are foolish talk because in the eyes of the law, neither South South nor South East exist. They are mere geographical expressions. Only 36 states and 774 LGA's are recognised

There are 9 LGAs in Delta North.

5 out of the 9 have outrightly rejected the ridiculous bill.

That's a majority!

Politics / Re: Itsekiri Threatens Lawsuit If Benin Takes Warri Kingdom Flag by NaMe4: 2:57am On Jul 16
Stoplying:
The flag was taken in 1897 during the British invasion of Benin empire. If the flag belongs to an "independent warri kingdom" and was not used beyond 1795, then how come it was taken in 1897 during the invasion of Benin empire ? 102 years after it's last use !
You see how you didn't make sense ?

One thing which people like you fail to understand is that these objects were recorded as they were being taken, Benin doesn't even need to make any claims, the records of these objects show them as being from Benin empire, this means that thiefs like you can't take custody of these objects by making false claims. This Nigerian tendency of rewriting history does not have any effects beyond the shores of Nigeria, the rest of the world is not dumb.

When someone says Ologbo is in Warri Kingdom, you just know you're conversing with someone who's neither from Edo or Delta and has little to no knowledge about what's being discussed.

Check their states of origin first. Their has been argument here that some persons bear Igbo names to commit crime. Let's use this as a case study.

Most times it's usually the other way round. Outsiders may bear names of the locals and even learn the language(s) in order to blend in, then later perpetrate various crimes or offences.

Apparently, a number of kidnappings attributed to the Fulanis may be perpetrated by other people, and in some cases, involving even community leaders.

mairogo:

But you sad wasternars have been provoking the Igbo with the Ikwerre isn't Igbo nonsense. I can count the number of posts created here on that matter.
The problem with you guys is that you can't tolerate what you give to others

I doubt any Westerner has anything to do with the Ikwerre proudly identifying with their own uniqueness and heritage.

There's a trending video of a lady in the UK who was asked by a foreign blogger about her culture. She proudly stated she was Ikwerre.

The next thing some ipob.s went to the comment section to spew the usual 'no tribe such as Ikwerre'. Impressively, Ikwerre sons and daughters dismissed such comments and reasserted their identity and heritage.

It's overtly obvious the only people poke-nosing into Ikwerre people's business are a few Igbos who choose to stress themselves over a simple fact that the Ikwerres are an ethnic group of their own.

Politics / Bill To Carve Out 'tiga State' From Kano Undergoes First Reading At Senate by NaMe4: 5:47pm On Jul 11
Senator Kawu Suleiman Abdurrahman, representing Kano South has introduced the "Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (Alteration) Creation of Tiga State Bill, 2024 (SB.523)" in the Nigerian Senate.


The bill, aimed at establishing Tiga State from Kano, underwent its First Reading on July 10, 2024.

In conjunction with the bill's introduction, Senator Bamidele Michael Opeyemi (Ekiti Central), Senate Leader, highlighted ongoing efforts to amend the Standing Orders of the Senate.

"The amendments are essential to ensuring our legislative processes remain adaptable and effective," Senator Opeyemi explained. "We aim to reflect current realities and optimise the Senate's operational framework."

The Senate acknowledged the necessity of updating the Standing Orders, previously revised in 2023, to accommodate new legislative priorities and streamline committee functions. Amendments include enhancing Order 8(2) to align with contemporary governance needs.



The bill will undergo further readings and scrutiny by Senate committees to evaluate its feasibility and impact.

Politics / Re: The Igbo Are Not Harmless And Blameless by NaMe4: 1:26pm On Jul 11
Great writeup. Truth, sincerity, nothing more!

Enlightened folks such as Tochukwu Ezukanma are actually the reason the Igbos are still held in high esteem.

Unfortunately, those who choose to live in ignorance or self-deceit, would always end up attacking his likes, and rather listen to charlatans such as ekpa and kanu.

Politics / Re: Nnamdi Azikiwe's 1953 Speech Opposing Secession. by NaMe4: 8:25am On Jul 11
confusedlady:


The point I am raising is that the Ibo were against referendum and seccession in the beginning because they felt that they had a very good chance to be the leaders in an emerging country. It was when they failed to achieve that leadership politically that their military wing decided to execute the coup of January 1966 and when they were checkmated by the counter coup of July 1966 they now decided to secede in 1967 and create Biafra. I wonder what coldie,Giddygiddy and LOVEALAIGBO have to say on this?

In addition to eyeing the Oil which was only discovered in the Coastal regions three years after he made that speech.

Adaka Boro proclaimed the Republic of Niger Delta in February 1966 shortly after the 1st coup. He was incarcerated and sentenced to death by the same individuals who declared Biafra a year later and attempted to drag the Oil-rich Niger Delta along.
