Prologue

Nkerehi, a neighbouring The protracted Nkerehi/ village had been a peaceful community until Dr Maduka, a US based medical practictioner brought a lot of developments in the village and went further to change the village's name from Nkerehi to Umuchukwu. Some supported the name change while others opposed the name change leading to incessant clashes with both sides recording deaths. Nkerehi community was changed
to Umuchukwu through a Referendum conducted on
January 7, 2008 by the Anambra state government. Subsequently, the official Gazette on the name change was released by government in April 2008. But since then, the community had known no peace as a section
of the area vehemently opposed the change and insisted that the old name be retained. The trouble
started in 2007 when some of the people in the community at a crucial town meeting supported the name change from Nkerehi which was said to have been named after a totem, elephant to Umuchukwu, meaning "Children of God ". Others however opposed the name change. There has been bloodshed and peace has eluded the people. Brothers take up arms against brothers.

My husband's two sisters are married in this village but one belongs to Umuchukwu while the other belongs to Nkerehi and as such both cannot attend each other's function neither can they visit one another. What prompted this write up is that I called my husband's niece to inquire if she will attend her cousin's marriage and her response was shocking to me. She said her cousin is from Nkerehi and she as an Umuchukwu daughter will not attend. Mind you they are first cousins from the same Nkerehi village before the change of name.

Should such discord be found amidst brothers? Dr Maduka has done a lot for his community but the strife is so much that you can't but feel it.

i dont want to talk much but i see no reason changing the name of a town in the first place.

So lovely

I don't get it, why do anything igbo give some people heart attack. If asaba nd port-harcourt are not igbo cities then who own them. Imagine the situation where a man from osun and Ogun state claim to be a Lagosian but he is quick to condemn an igbo man that claim asaba or port harcourt. Iberibe bu ajo Ife.

they are not doing it deliberately it is a reflex action. Just like not wanting to believe something you know is true

beloxxi:
confirm it here tho http://www.infotanus.com.ng/2016/06/the-niger-delta-avengers-has-called-for.html no jokes , they even have their website

go and rest with your wishful thinking

comprehension is your problem. Is there anywhere in the statement where they said they will stop attacking pipelines and other facilities? They only warned other groups to stop attacking soldiers, oil workers etc

So sorry may his soul RIP

Just one year Buhari ruined Nigeria

Hehehe

nabiz:
...in the dream, i saw a beautiful country. A country that every one will be proud of. I saw a humble man from south west becoming a president of Nigeria. His policy will favour every region. Every body, state and region will love and support him, he is the one who will restructure nigeria.

Wat does dis mean? D other regions ar bein played on by just a region.

the good news is that the west is not boiling but the bad news is that there is nothing to boil in the west

Mrjo:
FG and NDA Let give PEACE a CHANCE

we should talk about justice

it is justice that sustains peace

Buhari how market?

I bet that Nigeria govt is so hopless and parasitic that they can send oil across without bothering to check the state of the pipelines conveying them and destroy the environment

i am sure that's why these avengers announce their attacks on twitter .

Op you must differenciate among
"south-south" "oil producing states" "minorities" and "niger delta region"

except for political Niger delta, the Niger delta region cut accross only three states, Rivers, Bayelsa and Delta states

who noticed how they left out their demand in order not associate them with Biafra.


We are smarter

we already know

If history repeats itself it may not favour the victors of 1970

its time for some people to believe foreign media

when same foreign media report the massacre of armless protesters same people will label them "western propagandists"

lalasticlala if u like take it to frontpage
