How do you know, you are not even core Ibo. You are Ikwerre, an Nri descendant. Let descendants of Aro speak, the core, pure blood Ibos speak.

Agbotaen,

I have told these guys numerous times already and I will never stop preaching it to them.

Ibo majority is a wrong majority in Nigeria. Everytime they celebrate yam festival they need to cast yams aside for oyibo and thank white man plenty for artificially upgrading them to something worth even having a debate with. They are an African minority that have zero greatness in the histiory of the continent.

Everytime you tell them about your people and language and uniqueness they don't like it. You know why?

Because they are trying to construct something parallel with the accomplishments of true great people like Bini, Oyo, Fulani. They hate that you don't accept yourself as Ibo.

Do you have any idea what the future of your children and grandchildren stand? If Ibos don't succeed with your generatuion they will try with your chuildrens. They use language niw to tie you with them, in future they will use name.

To counter that your people will need to start distancing from Ibo name and language and empower your Bini heritage but suppress your Ibo link. That's the lesson for you in all of these. You are dealing with land grabbers. They already claimed Port Harcourt.

They want to claim Lagos, but as you know that will be the end of their presence in West if we rise up agaunst them.

They are a irritant pest. Raid is not eniough, you need an exterminator to demolish their base and colony.

What's the message?

The skull is thicker than you can imagine. Tell me again, what's the story?

According to Chinedu Nwabunwanne. Igbos originated from Jewish roots and are a "lost tribe".

Lost no doubt!. . . . . but a Jewish tribe?

Man what's your problem? How many times have I told you to leave Aro people and Igbo people alone for that matter? What is your problem really? I can't go on, reading your posts really piss me off. Keep your mouth out of topics you don't know about

My presence here is to state what is truthful, if that makes you uncomfortable then great!


Ibo people are nobody in Nigeria when we talk about great people and cultures. To create a new greatness you all are on internet revising yur history. Where you find it impossible to revise yours you then try to revise other people's to narrow the obvious backwardness of your Nri/Aro history.

If we were doing a count and a nemurical value of 1 is assigned to each head of a Yoruba person, the Ibo equivalent will be 1/4 or less.

So you need to realize that you have oyibo to thank for designating you majority. You are truly and factually a political minority in this country. It has nothing to do with your population , which is not that many to begin with, but your political contribution to the history of Africa generally is blank!

Sango was a ruler of Oyo empire and was later deified after death.

On Ifa and its origin, I am of the opinion that it originated as one of the secrets given by God to Noah in the template handed down for the Ark.

Ask Pastor AIO, I'm sure he has a different and more specific origin to reference.

Like I said what I gave you is just my opinion and is formed from my understanding of the Torah, Bible and the Quran.

Ifa was with mankind before Abraham (AS) was even born, I said to clarify any thought of believing Ifa was derived from any of the scriptures. It existed before them!

Matter of fact some of the rituals of Ifa is also present in Islam as well as Judaism.

Can somebody explain the above.

Now, why do this in Ojukwu's absence? You know what, never mind, . . . I forgot he was absent when the war ended anyway!

Pleep,

I like your opening to the post and the questions you asked.

First to answer your question in the post I will say we live in a world of illusion, everything we encounter is relative to another thing.

On money and to understand the design of exchange as an instrument of economic power I will give you an illustration.

To show you how cunny the industrialized world is, let us assume that palmolive bar soap is the medium of monetary exchange so that whatever you purchase is exchanged in equitable measure using a standard unit of palmolive bar soap.  

The first thing to do is cause scarcity in the circulation of the soap so that it is not readily available unless in a controled quantity manufactured by govt and bearing the seal of approval. This will make people hoard the bar soap and be less reluctant to use it. It becomes a treasure and those who have it in abundance will have easy access to what they want.

Then the govt now make everyone that want to do business with it transact that business using palmolive bar soap as the authentic virtue or standard upon which promises and debts are settled.

So when I buy a car from you I don't have the total number of bar soaps it cost to echange the car but I can pay you some today and then draw a debt note promising to settle the debt at a later time and at additional cost or fee which to make it easier on my other obligations is agreed to be paid instalmmentaly over a period of time untill paid off.



Then as is usual in every human endeavor, there will be competition.

Another govt may choose not to use palmolive as their exchange money. They may decide on sunlight bar soap.

In order to eliminate competition the dominant of the two countries may use certain political policies, unrelated to economy, to erode the standard base of the rival currency.

Let say sunlight belongs to the dominant country, then to erode the power of palmolive, certain policies are forced on the palmolive country, either by inducing them to manufactre surplus supply of palmolive which will push demand down (instead of hoarding, people will use their palmolive) and thus devalue the worth of the soap relative to the power of sunlight.

Another way is to manufacture counterfeit of palmolive with a pseudo seal to mimick its authentication and then flood the rival's market with it. People who could not before have it in abundance now do , and those who treasured it will loose value on their treasure, therefore in an attempt to quickly get rid of it will start spending. Now, palmolive is available almost everywhere to everyone in abundant quantity and so demand for goods will go up. Market prices will go up. Trade and exchange will grow but at a peril because soon as they earn it, people are getting rid of it and do not want to hold on.

I can go on to further illustrate but I will stop here. You see, this cycle is how the Europeans have succeeded leading other nations to their doom. Nobody has to accept palmolive as the means, I can create my own and independent of palmolive or sunlighT and call it Ajax bar soap. But the dominant powers don't want competition so they will find a way to kill the competing standard.

Here is another illusration.

Let's say oyibo man call you and say you know what Pleep, we spend bottle top as money here. The more of it you have the wealthier you become. So you start collecting bottle tops everwhere you go. Then one day you go to visit him and he tells you he has a land to sell. He doesn't know how much you have in bottle tops but you are interested in the land and ask him how much. Thinking its just out of your curiosity he responded and say, well, its going for 500,000 tops. So you declared your interest to buy the land. Then you both reached agreement to transact business next day.

Next day you counted 500,000tops into the bag and headed to his house. When you arrive you dumped the bags of tops on the table.  Oyibo man will look at you and "sorry chump, but we stopped spending tops last night. We now transact in pebbles. You got pebbles? The land cost 100,000 pebbles if you are still interested."

White men have chained our noses to their western education and are leading us where they want.

How did you guys shift from headcount to land grab?

Mustapha is incriminating himself.

When you go to range for shooting exercise there are few protocols.

1. You can practice with regular ammo or dummy ammo. Its only a target practice and using live ammo is wasteful and increases risks of accidents in the range due to direct hit, accidental discharge or a misfire.

2. If live ammo is used, it is not to be loaded untill the trainee is in the booth (indoor) or positioned (outdoor) for target practice.
3. When you finish practice, magazines and cartridges are to be emptied and firearms are to be inspected and the chamber cleared.


So I don't understand the "I gave my firearm to Rogers to clean" and next thing I know, Mrs Abiola was dead.

Where did the ammo come from? You don't give a loaded gun for cleaning.

I will like to add that Yoruba are largest.

1. Muslim polygamy.

2. Highest twin birth rate in Africa.

3. Ifa priests also practice polygamy.

4. Traditional population spread across West Africa.

We needed some level of discipline to succeed with self-rule.

Idiagbon should be respected for his pioneering efforts. So I don't understand the hate and criticism here.

Oh no, I notice your presence tpia when you are around. Lol

Andre,

I actually liked that you used time to apply yourself and narrate your war story. I'm sure there is more to be told. Share the rest.

As everyday passes, I keep hating this country more and more.

Why, because other Nigerians don't want you on their land?

Tpia,

Where have you been hiding?

Gej wey dey offer amnesty to boko before they demanded it na hin want deal severe punishment to soldiers wey plot coup.

$175,000 is not enough in my opinion.

Trovan was banned in US, Canada and Europe before the 1996 trial in Nigeria. FDA had turned down Pfizer's application and stipulated that the drug cannot prescribed, dispensed or distributed for sale anywhere in the US territory.

Pfizer wanted to test the limits of the drug and picked on a 3rd world country. But you see, they were given the access rights to use the drug by some Nigerian official who already received kickback upfront.

So there was conspiracy, there was premeditation, there was ethical violation, each victim should receive $15M dollars settlement for the non-consentual experiment and on top of that each dead victim should be awarded $25M.

There are about 20 million "NIGERIANS" who cannot read and understand the latin alphabets but can read and understand the Arabic alphabets, and they are "NIGERIANS" just as any other NIGERIAN.  Not limited to a single geographic location, but nationwide*,

Auwal,

C'mon! Which people in Nigeria know how to excahnge monetary values but can't read latin/roman alphabets?

Yoruba language also use ajami and you don't see Yoruba on the notes. You don't need literacy to exchange money or commodities, you only need to understand computation.

It represents a political voice, that's all it is.

The North continues to push for an opportunity to insulate and shield itself from the rest of country by launching different social programs.

To Ibos,

We will bookmark this and remember in 2015 how to vote.
