Ihuomadinihu:
You don't dictate to me or anyone how to address an issue. I don't need to quote anyone to make a point. I posted a general comment for others to read and understand.

you don't correct the general readers for an error you claim somebody made else you become a nuisance to the thread.
Pls Kindly refrain from quoting me further.

Ihuomadinihu:
Alright. Thanks for putting up Chinyere Udoma's origin.
I saw people mentioning Mike and someone even put up Iwobi's picture as a native of Anambra and it's only wise i make that correction. Do you have a problem with that?

quote and correct them

Zceesneh:
he visit enugu the most, his mother lives in enugu, he shoots all his videos in enugu, he love enugu more than anambra

just hear yourself
why the insecurity? Onyeka onwenu grew up in Anambra, Nkem owoh feels at home more in anambra but nobody can take away their states of origin from them. No Anambrarian has attemted boasting with that either.
Pls quit this display of infiriority complex and focus on the topic of the thread.

This is damn annoying!

Ihuomadinihu:
Wanna correct a few mistakes.
Alex Iwobi is from Delta state.
Mike Ezuruonye is from Abia state and Chinyere Udoma is from Enugu state.
My fellow Igbos,remember this is thread to celebrate igbo sons and daughter of Anambra origin,it's not a thread to cause division,rancor or mock other Igbo states. Whatever we have achieved in our respective states,is for the collective advancement of the Igbo race.
Ndewo nu.

nobody said Alex iwuobi and Mike ezuronye are from Anambra so why the correction?

Chinyere Udoma is from Nnokwa by birth and from Alor by marriage both in idemmili south LGA in Anambra

Primate of the Church of Nigeria, Anglican
Communion, Most Rev’d (Dr) Nicholas Okoh
has called on the Federal Government to
scrap the proposed grazing reserves for
herdsmen.
Reading out the resolutions of the Diocese
of Abuja Synod yesterday, the Primate
warned that such decision would lead to a
civil war.
He stressed that establishing grazing sites
across the country would give herdsmen
“unwarranted special preference” and
make them automatic indigenes of all the
regions of the country.
Okoh said, “The synod hereby states
unequivocally that the move to create
grazing reserves for Fulani herdsmen
around the country does not have our
support. This is because the move treats a
set of people with unwarranted special
preference, making them indigenes of all
regions of the country.
Hide quoted text
“There have been countless isolated cases
of herdsmen brutality to their host
communities. These notorious activities of
herdsmen are capable of dragging the
country into another civil war. The Fulani
herdsmen are private businessmen who
take away all proceeds of the business, not
sharing with either their host communities
or the government.
“We wish to re-echo to the Federal
Government, states and individuals involved,
the recommendation already made earlier,
that ranches should be built in their own
localities for modern animal husbandry. In
some parts of Nigeria, people are already
grappling with high population growth and
land does not expand. Nobody’s land
should therefore be given forcefully given
to anybody in any guise.
“The synod calls on the National Assembly
to drop the bill on grazing reserves as it is
only heating up the polity and will do no
good to the herdsmen, their host
communities or the government.”

Im Igbo, i'm only saying the entire IGBO land should be Japanized, and not just Anambra... PEACE.

the person u quoted isnt Igbo

It will be so silly to assume this figure accurately represent online presence of each region or even population. Having multiple simcards does not translate to having multiple users. Eg glo is dead in the East but many use it alonside their main mtn sim in the west. Some even have three sims. Nairaland census always see Anambra always having most pple.

Port Harcourt, Nigeria -- Minutes after touching down in Port Harcourt, I could feel the paranoia setting in. I'd come to the city in Nigeria's south to travel to "Biafraland" in the southeast, which declared independence from the rest of the country in 1967, sparking a brutal civil war that lasted until 1970. Refugees flee during the "Biafra War," January, 1970. (AFP file photo) Discontent with the federal government has never been far from the surface in the region and over the last few months has increased, after the leader of a hardline pro-Biafra group, Nnamdi Kanu, was arrested and put on trial in the capital, Abuja. Kanu, of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) group was arrested in October on charges of "treasonable felony" and Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari has described him as committing "atrocities" against the state. Nnamdi Kanu (c) in federal court in Abuja, November, 2015. (AFP / Pius Utomi Ekpei) I've covered his trial for months from Lagos, the commercial hub in the southwest where Kanu is written off as a radical heretic with a dangerous agenda that will result in another civil war. In the rare times there is news on his case, it's brief. Support heartland I wanted to see what the situation was like on the ground in the heartland of his support, in "Biafraland" itself. Last month IPOB, which generally only communicates in wordy press releases and through pro-Biafran newspapers in the southeast, agreed to talk to AFP so my photographer colleague Stefan Heunis and I set off for Port Harcourt. The strategic city -- the hub of Nigeria's oil and gas industry -- was part of the independent Republic of Biafra in the 1960s until it was recaptured by the army in 1968. Unlike in Abuja and Lagos, news of Kanu's trial dominates the front pages of newspapers and radio airwaves here and pro-Biafra graffiti and posters are commonplace on the streets. Pro-Biafra supporters march through the streets of Aba, southeastern Nigeria calling for Nnamdi Kanu's release. (AFP / Pius Utomi Ekpei) In the wider southeast, Kanu's IPOB group seems to enjoy VIP status. It operates with martial discipline, has chapters in many southeast states and uses code names. With Kanu behind bars, IPOB is suspicious of strangers, fearing they are agents of the federal government. A Biafra supporter who lost his leg during a pro-Biafra protest in 2015. (AFP / Stefan Heunis) The suspicious atmosphere is aggravated by long-standing ethnic animosities in a country that before colonial rule was a multitude of kingdoms and tribal states and today is home to some 500 ethnic groups, with Yoruba, Hausa and Igbo the three largest. The ethnic divisions are being aggravated in a worsening economic climate caused by the fall in global oil prices, which has drastically cut government revenues from exports.

It is you that isn't getting in touch with current realities. You're not up to date, if not, you should have known about the controversy on gay rights that has almost crippled the Anglican communion. I'm sure you don't know about the LAMBETH and GAFCON conferences, one being the assembly of liberal bishops and the other being the assembly of conservative bishops which the Church of Nigeria belongs to. Do you know that the Church of Nigeria has since been proclaimed by the former primate not to be any longer in Communion with the See of Canterbury but in Communion with all Provinces that holds the historic faith and doctrines outlined in the Scripture which the Church of England has fallen out of with the ECUSA due to liberalism, automatically making the Church of Nigeria dealignated from them. You need to know more about the Anglican Church.

hahaha...stop advertising your ignorance you rebel!
Member churches of Anglican communion relate on two basis. They are in full communion with the see of canterbury and in communion with each other. The church of Nigeria is formally in communion with Church of England as well as the rest, but restricts its relations 'cos of certain activities. Just like a married couple sleeping in seperate rooms for sometimes doesnt mean they are seperated. GAFCON is not recognized by the communion, it a platform where conservatives chat their common cause. Only the episcopal church and that of canada has the church of Nigeria formally stopped relating with cos they are liberal hardliners. Episcopal church was suspended by the communion earlier this year for 3yrs cos of their hardline position on samesex marriage. They'll not participate in any anglican activity in the global level nor represent Anglican communion even in US. The Cana (conservatives in US) has by implication been recognized as a seperate anglican province. The US chuch are expected to put their house in order witihn this period.
Stop viewing everything from the anarchist point.

EzePromoe:
Who told you it isn't possible? Afterall, the Church of Nigeria has broken away from the Church of England but they still retained the name "Anglican". But no need for the argument anymore, we've moved back into the church, and a programme was held there yesterday.

lol... Some of your claims show you really arent an Anglican. Quite shameful u're an anarchist

Lalasticlala come and push this to frontpage

its like UK is gradually distancing themselves from this mess of a country. No sane country ally with a failed state like Nigeria. Trump will be more blunt

2016 is no 1967

rhemmiedream:
How can someone say the Portuguese founded Lagos..??That's preposterous.
Because the whites named a place Port Harcourt or Lagos doesn't mean they didn't meet people there.
By the way , if you all flat..head.ded gulliboes from the land locked, red mudded land of the rising poverty and anger had dissipated half of the energy you use daily in screaming Lagos on your Biafra agitation., probably by now you might have actualized your land locked utopia .

what is the Yoruba name of lagos?

All categorieds of people are feeling the heat

DaBullIT:
Some psychos say na lie say na innocenti dem arrest,


You don hear make any dog bark from Niger Delta ?

hahahahah Awon werey

yes it is not true

Nnamdi kanu will kick your ass in prison

if u lack evidence against him just admit it

EzePromoe:
In this case, the battle is between the church and the diocese. What else do you call someone who tries to upset the basis on which the church was built to do the bidding of a few diocesan cabals? There are many things done at the back stage that I'm not going to reveal because it's not suitable for public consumption. Nobody but the devil is fighting the church.

smh...just hope u get back to your senses on time.

EzePromoe:
I can't believe it that my church is on the news for the first time but for the wrong reasons. Let me give you a snippet of what the controversy is all about. St. Matthew's is a self sustaining church which has over the years been the backbone of Anglican revival. Those of you who know the Anglican Church very well will understand some certain restrictions that was placed on some fire-brand Christian activities which was considered unAnglican. St Matthew played a huge role in turning things around and today, St. Matthew stands out in the diocese. One of the aim of the church is rural evangelism as well as Anglican revival. We've planted churches in many communities all around SS and SE part of the country. Now comes in the diocese under the Bishop, thinking that we're taking things to the extreme, or rather that St. Matthew is beginning to act as an independent church because (according to them), we're working against the Anglican doctrines going into mission and promoting the church without involving the diocese, while this has been our tradition for 28 years of our existence. Then they removed the rector and brought in this Venerable Adubasim who has been working as an agent of the diocese, upsetting the tradition on which the church was built which is evangelism. That's one thing we would never accept, hence we continued our missions with or without his authorization or that of the diocese, and that is the reason for this brouhaha. The story of the Archdeacon being harassed is so untrue.

hmm...so you are part of the confusion.

Did i just hear you call Venerable, an 'agent' of the diocese? Nobody fights and wins the church.

Propaganda

confetti:
Glad this Church is finally sealed off at least for the time being. I have queried why this action has not been taken long ago. I fail to understand how some group of people in the church would be bigger than the whole diocese.

I remember a case that a church member wanted his child baptized. Members of this clique fought the church member, fought the priest and people who came for the baptism and there reason was that they do not believe in infant baptism. I was pissed off. It wasn't there child that was being baptized. The father of the Child believes in infant Baptism and so wanted it for his child yet these set of people were ready to fight to stop another person's belief in the process of enforcing theirs. A set of people who call themselves Christians but all they do is fight, sow discord and lead their congregation to disobedience and they still believe in their minds that they are worshiping God? People with reprobate minds.

Anglicans believe in infant baptism. Even Bible said Peter Baptized Cornelius and all his household. If you disagree with the Anglican doctrine, get yourself out of the church and start your own church and call it whatever you like.

If these people did this to Ven. Adubasim who is the meekest of Venerables I know, I guess God has vindicated many other Pastors that were sent there and had these same issues.

wonders will never end

AtlanticBreeze:
This is what the Anambra State capital Awka looked like through the 8 years tenure of the former incompetent governor peter obi who neglected the state capital and virtually every other place in the state and was ruling the state with propaganda.
