A001:

You're just like the typical African that repeats the same distorted and false history peddled by Europeans and Arabs.

Like the Greeks, Africans also have specific names for their gods.

Olorun, Chukwu, Ohmorihi, Osanobua, and many others are specific names of African gods, just like Zeus, and co are specific names of Greek gods, Allah is a specific name of an Arab god, and Jehovah is a specific name of an Isreali god.

Luna, Ohmorihi, Ojo are specific names of gods in the Kogi culture, who are the ancestors of the Kogi people. Those are names, not titles.

All those entities are the chief gods or big gods of their culture, meaning each claims the title of God, and each culture around the world has its own sets of gods and goddesses, each of which is distinct from the others.

Otem would even tell you your Chukwu is an ET that designed early Ibos, who are the forefathers of present-day Ibos, just like Atum is an ET that designed the black people that had existed in ancient Egypt. All these entities people see as God are simply early beings.

Or gifted beings, who we call Orisa (deity) in Yoruba. Orisa means eni ti ori sa da yato in Yoruba or "a person made special or gifted by his/her head".

That's a deep history, especially if you know the history of African traditional religions well. Based on my findings interacting with different Isese (Yoruba traditional religion) practitioners, Otem's histories have a lot of depth.

Isese practitioners in Yorubaland would say deities like Orunmila, Oduduwa, Sango, Ogun, Osun, Yemoja, and co descended from heaven (the Yoruba word they use is rowa); some like Oduduwa did so with a chain or ewon in Yoruba, according to them.

(See the chain of Oduduwa, one of the ancestors of the Yoruba people in the attached picture.)

All these deities are early Yoruba people. Ignorant African Muslims and Christians would say these deities are demons; some foolish atheists would claim they never existed, that they're fictional entities.

You're a big fool if you think Socrates or Plato existed, and Orunmila or Ogun or Amadioha never existed.

Most Africans, including you, don't know the history of your local deities. But it's essential knowledge every African must know to preserve our histories and cultures.

As far as I'm concerned, Chukwu, Osanobua, goddess Ala, Afa (the same called Ifa in Yoruba), Amadioha, Yoruba deities like Olorun, Orunmila, Oya, Ifa, Osanyin, Sango, Ogun, Osun all are past beings, who are the ancestors of present-day Africans, and the same thing applies to Zeus, Allah, Yahweh in their respective cultures.

It's not a coincidence that many names -- of people, states, cities, and towns -- in the South-West have the names of these local deities as their roots or bases. They're names, not titles.

God is a title, not a name. You've gods of religion like Allah, Jehovah, Olorun, Chukwu, each of which is a distinct entity; also, there are gods of football like Messi, Ronaldo.

The practice of referring to gifted humans as a god or goddess (deifying humans) is an age-long practice.

That people call Olorun or Chukwu a god doesn't mean both entities are the same, just like Messi isn't the same as Ronaldo simply because people call both gods of football.

You're arguing blindly and ignorantly. People that make this your kind of submission also say their ancestors are Adam and Eve, when there's no single evidence for such a silly claim.

I don't know how an African is related to Adam or Eve. That's simply false history.

If you're Ibo, your ancestors are Chukwu, Ala, Amadioha, and co. The ancestors of Ijaw people are Fenibeso, Osanobua, and co. As a Yoruba, my ancestors are Olorun, Obatala, Orunmila, Ifa, Oya, Yemoja, Sango, Osanyin, Ogun, and co.
Chukwu is same as Chi-ukwu. It translates to The Great/Big God. He never existed on earth in any Igbo Myth and Folklore. He is an essence believed to have created Amadioha and other beings. He is unknown and simply unimaginable. Amadioha, Ani, and Ojukwu suit your statement better

You don't shit where you eat.
A lot of stories are coming out. The recruitment was in January and it is looking very fishy how a Mass Communication graduate was picked over some Engineers.

According to some unverified post, they were not yet trained on handling the trains. Just assessment and interview.
The story gets worse. The girl probably paid with her body or used connections.

Reading some comments here, one would think that you can just call for applications on a blue rail line operator, and you'll get 1000 applications the next day

That girl was already being trained for the job even before now...Maybe years back sef.

And not to sound tribalistic, but if it was left to LASG, they will not choose an Igbo girl, the same way Anambra will not choose a Yoruba girl.

The girl was obviously the most qualified, or like the rumours have it, she is working for CCECC.

If truly she was on LASG payroll, she would not type that.
No


She graduated from Mass Communication last year. She was employed within 1 year of University graduation. Some people claim the positions were fraudulently filled by "Senior Men".

There are things you do that will endear others to you and some will turn sympathisers against you even when fighting a just cause; Achebe mentioned an incident during the Nigerian Civil War in There Was A Country that turned foreign allies who were in support of the Biafran side during the war I think it was hostage taking. Similarly, I see the same script playing out post-election by attacking, harassing and intimidating others who says something positive or negative that doesn't align with the thoughts and feelings of some supporters. You are only giving others reason not to take your cause seriously and this will lead to the eventual downfall of the movement.
Yes. They captured some white men working at the oil rig. The negative perception was terrible and it ended with the Ojukwu releasing them after the Pope wrote a letter to him.

A lot of intellectuals including Achebe wondered what Loud Ojukwu was smoking
