IPOB is fully welcomed in anambra state. Infact I'm recent news Obiano himself commended Nnamdi kanu for been a man that stands a against injustice while stating clearly that he has hosted him in his hometown aguleri....

He even went further to call him an intelligent young man.

Mr super that doesn't know even in his community in nnewi...lolzzz.....I will leave you with verdict of history.

MelesZenawi:
Errrrrmmmmm

Nnamdi kanu and IPOB please leave ebonyi and their People alone.

Ebonyi has consistently maintained they don't want IPob and by extension biafra and their youth has reiterated that again...



but for us and as of now we need 100 percent of your services to check mate our polity.

Mazi kanu is doing wonderfully well, so don't avoid us.

JimohMomoh:
False
We have about 5five area councils in Abuja, you can't use one to judge others. Internal roads in the other area councils are in a mess.
Meanwhile all the batteries in the cctv in Abuja has been vandalised by hausa boys picking scraps.

Ada Priscilla Nzimiro, the first medical doctor from igboland, Eastern Nigeria, her life and times. Ada Nzimiro birth, education, occupation, legacy and death.

To some it was a tragic story, while to me, it was a case of unfinished greatness and a feat that paved the way for the liberation and educational emancipation of the African women in general and the Nigerian women in particular. Becoming a certified medical doctor as at 1950 in a then world and society full of male chauvinists and sexists is not an easy feat. She deserves to be in Nigeria’s hall of fame.

So what do you know about Ada Priscilla Nzimiro, the first female igbo medical doctor?

Below are the few things I was able to gather from scanty sources on the internet and the library.

1. Ada Priscilla Nzimiro was born on the 30th of April, 1923 in Port Harcourt Nigeria.

2. Her parents were Richard Okwosha Nzimiro (father) and Mary Nwametu Onumonu (mother)

3. Her father was the first Mayor of Port Harcourt in 1956 and died in office in 1959 while her mother was described as a “wealthy merchant” that traded in palm oil, salt and European products.

4. Mary Nwametu Onumonu (1898–1993), was a wealthy merchant, political activist, and member of the NCNC who galvanised Igbo women for the Biafran war effort in 1967 and lost all her landed properties in Port Harcourt after the war due to her role in trying to divide the country.

5. Historians were able to trace her family roots or lineage to Oguta, present-day Imo state.

6. She enrolled for university for education in 1945 in Scotland after her secondary education in Nigeria.

7. She attended medical school, had medical training and earned her Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MB ChB) in 1950 at the University of Glasgow, Scotland.

8. She was the first woman from Igboland to graduate as a medical doctor.

9. She died tragically just a year after graduation on the 22nd of March, 1951 at the age of 27.

10. She barely practised medicine for 1 year.

11. The cause of her death was described by historians as “unnatural” yet undisclosed causes.

12. Her sudden demise came as a rude shock to her family, friends and well-wishers

13. She was buried a month after in Oguta, present-day Imo state.

14. She was neither married nor engaged while alive. She had no child.

15. Ada Priscilla Nzimiro parents in their benevolence established two schools at Oguta in 1945, one of which is William Wilberforce Academy (WWA), remamed Priscilla Memorial School to honour her memory and preserve her legacy and feat in medicine.

16. As the first female medical doctor from her region, Nzimiro inspired many young women to pursue medicine as a career.

Conclusion: Though she died too early and couldn’t fulfil her promising medical career, she paved the way for the liberation and education of many women dominating different fields of knowledge today. #Respect to an Amazon#

NAME OF COMMUNITY: UMUDIOKA

[s]L.G.A: DUNUKOFIA

BRIEF HISTORY: Umudioka is one of the five towns that make up the ancient Dunukofia clan, others are Ukpo, Ifitedunu, Umunnachi and Ukwulu. Umudioka citizens of old are normardic in nature. They traveled far and wide because of their experience in traditional medicine and igbu ichi craft(tribal mark crafting). As a result of this, some of them settled in towns like Orlu, Awkuzu, Okigwe, Awka, Neni, Okija and other places where they retained their Umudioka identity.

Umudioka celebrates four festivals yearly, namely- Mkpikpa, Neze, Ogbeegbe and New Yam festival (Iwaji). The most celebrated among them is Mkpikpa which is celebrated on the last Afor Friday in the month of July. The climax of the celebration is at Ilo Mkpikpa, the biggest square in Umudioka.

Umudioka has an ancient and famous market called Afor-Igwe where traders come to sell their goods farm products on every Afor day. This has now been made a daily market with the appropriate government approval.
Every Umudioka Citizen is known and addressed as Ezebo. With this name, they identify each other in the midst of strangers.

Our traditional ruler is HRH Igwe Rafael Chukwurah, Ezedioka II of Umudioka kingdom.

Will you shut your dirty mouth.. all those you mentioned played their role into politics, nothing was delivered on a platter of gold. Our brothers are always on the wrong side.
Then when we try to advise them and bring them onboard, they claim we are slaves and that they are superior. They even claim they own our lands, chest beating everywhere. They call us cowards for being patient while we play the game brilliantly. They take our quietness for granted and our hard work for laziness.
What should we do then? We treat them the way they want to be treated and picked the few smart ones among them.
Yorubas are smart people, they should start learning or they’ll keep suffering, crying and wailing forever.

NNOBI

LGA: Idemili South.

[s]Nnobi in so many ways is like Nigeria- a mini-Nigeria. It’s essentially divided into three villages, Ngo, Awuda and Ebenesi. During the colonial era and the few years after, Nnobi was rising and thriving under the guardianship of the Great Igwe Ezeokoli, a traditional surgeon, educationist, celebrated King and the man who brought Christianity to Idemili. In those years of yonder.

Nnobi is known as Nnobi Ana nso (Holy land) because it habours the head quarters of so many known Sabbath churches. Nnobi have over the years produced so many clergy men including about two Bishops.
Did I tell you that an indigenous son of Nnobi have about 275 branches of his sabbath mission before he died in 1995 and the branches extends to Israel and other part of the world.

Anywhere you see Nnobi indigene, if you don't know his/ her name, just echo ABALUKWU, he/ she must give you attention because the name ABALUKWU is a unique name that the indigenous sons and daughters of Nnobi answer in common. The present commissioner for Basic Education is from Nnobi.

The present ruler of Nnobi is HRH Igwe Engr. Nick Obi.

Only a foolish Igbo man will be dancing unclad over this thread opened by "Anambra Igbo wannabe"


Op is up-to something considering the timing of opening this thread ..

Useless human being..
Even in your next life you can never be Igbo.
Every Igbo on this forum knows the op his numerous monikers he use to play this dirty game, yet some Igbos are still falling for his tricks..

Yes, the thread is good and educative but he has no moral to open such thread because he's an Igbo hater masquerading as Anambra Igbo man.

@Kalu61

I'll let it go. You failed to answer simple questions: where can 4m buy you a land in Lagos and/or what business can you do with it? Also, I simply explained how people go abroad for quality of life. Apparently, we see quality of life differently so I'll let that go.

You missed the whole point I was passing across so I'll leave you to keep reading and maybe someday, you finally get it. Your "most of the people over there, most of you guys over there" claims show how out of touch you are with reality.

I don't argue with people who can't make counter-arguments without using insults, missing the point, or attacking the other person. You want to defend your country, all well and good.

Have a great day.

PS. This thread isn't an attack on any Nigerian's decision to remain in Nigeria. It's a platform to rub minds on the attractions abroad and if they're worth migrating for. Do you even have that 4m Naira? Lol... do you know how long it would take to have 4m Naira cash in your account?

Nigerian banks will give loans worth hundreds of millions of Naira to corrupt politicians but wouldn't give promising minds ordinary 50k. Go and apply for that 4m Naira loan to set up that awesome business of yours, come back and explain your finding(s).

I rest my case with you. God bless you.
