Oh my f..ucking goodness! WTF? I had a feeling it isn't true he died...but whay can't he address the ppl to at least give them assurance that he is fine.Why keep his state in this painful suspense? One thing is clear though;He isn't well.

freecocoa: My parents were the first people I ever saw kiss, it wasn't french kiss with tongue and saliva though, they used to kiss lightly in our presence and we(my siblings and I) turned out alright as far as I can tell.

Eeekwa...you turned out alright ?

Ayanle,didn't you say Somalis aren't Africans?? Makes me wonder why you are posting pictures of Somalian women an African beauties thread....you are deranged!

odumchi: No my term has not yet started.

Here's some of what I know:

Pre-colonially, the majority of the Igbo existed in village communities ruled by councils of elders, wisemen, and titled persons. From the northern Nike savannahs to the southern Ikwere marshes, these councils regulated village affairs, levied taxes, and managed inter-village diplomacy. These "polyarchies" carried out the will of the community, and most importantly, prevented tyranny. However, despite the proficiency of these "polyarchies", well-structured and organized monarchies arose in different axes of Igboland: in the Bende axis (Arochukwu area), in the Ika axis (Agbo), and in the Nri-Oka axis (Aguwku-Nri and Onicha).

In these three regions, the traditional roles of the "Eze" tend to differ. For example, in Agukwu-Nri, the Eze Nri (King of all people of Nri ancestry) is more of a priest king than an actual political figurehead because the people of Nri were [traditionally] reknown for their proficiency in native medicine. As chief of all practitoners of Nri medicine, the Eze Nri was very influential, and through the exportation of Nri medical science, his influence range spread to encompass most of what is now Anambra, parts of Imo, parts of Delta, and parts of Enugu.

The Eze Aro (King of all people of Aro ancestry), on the other hand, was the supreme political figurehead in all of Igboland due to the influence that the Aro people once wielded. However, nowadays, as a result of British intrusion, the Eze Aro, although very influential in the cultural context of not only Igboland but Eastern Nigeria, holds a mere fraction of the power that he once had.

Even in the areas where kingship is found, the council of elders is still present. For example, in Arochukwu, kingship (although relegated to a particular village and lineage) is not necessarily passed down from father to son. The Eze Aro is elected by a council of nine distinguished Aro elders, called Okpankpo.

Aside from the afformentioned kings, most of the Igwe, Eze, and Obi that we has today never existed prior to colonization. When the British came, they granted individuals/families authority and made them warrant chiefs. That ultimately evolved into the situation that we have now: towns that have never had a history of monarchy all of a sudden have kings and etc.

What tha f....uck is this Odumchi Who is Eze Aro?? His influence begins and stops with Arochukwu.....not Arondizuogu nor Ajali sef...Abeg get off your high horse...stop trying to spread false impression...this thing you wrote is complete rubbish...Eze Aro my a..ss!

[quote author=ODUA_NEGRO]Thanks.

So I thought previously that the Obi is the highest ranking monarch of the land, now I know better. In any society you can ultimately converge overall leadership and authority in one person on top. If there are three subgroups under the Igbo nation then who is the topmost authority, would it be Eze Aro or Eze Nri?

I understand that Eze Aro is political and authority over sovereingty of Alaigbo. Eze Nri is priest and has authority over spiritual rites and customs of Alaigbo. What role does the third one, Eze Agbo, hold?[/quote]Eze Aro has no political sovereinghty Over Ani-Igbo! Maybe Arochukwu or their affiliates. On the other hand Eze Nri still holds religious and traditional authority over most of Igboland. And the Eze Nri only leaves his throne for rituals purposes.He doesn't go to political gatherings.

HRH Obi of Onicha to me is the most influential monarch in southern Nigeria. Look at the man's biography,his majestic personality...Now,that's what you call a ROYALTY !

And they said the aviation minister Stella Oduah isn't working....Another Igbo technocrat.

She got the looks from her father...her mama take style wowo..

Abagworo: In all honesty I don't think we belong in the same league. Trading in spare parts in open markets is nothing to brag about. When someone opened a thread on Enugu, everyone praised the level of improvement until you and your cohorts came to give other Nigerians bad impressions of Enugu. Inspite of how devastated, reddish and disorganized most part of your State is, have you ever seen another Igbo open a thread mocking Onitsha, Awka or Nnewi. However your folks will sweat to look for any single thing that will run down the image of your fellow Igbos. Anyway I have always whole heartedly believed that we and you are not the same tribe. The Whitemen erroneously joined us and we just accepted being in a loose ethnic group sharing only language and nothing else.

Like I had written earlier, I erroneously opened that Abia vs Anambra thread but I will never be pushed into showing any part of Igbo(including Rivers and Delta) in bad light.

You are a complete hypocrite; The same enterpreneurial dexterity of which Igbo are known for originated from Anambra. Its the same traits that you shameless Abagworo will take pride in when it suts you and call them "open market spare parts dealers". The same spare parts dealers produced billionaires like Chisco,Ibeto,Coscharis and Innoson motors and these are same Igbo you celebrate whenever it suits you....smh.

Abagworo: I'm proud of my beautiful and clean State and I've sworn never to portray any Igbo State in bad light otherwise I would have challenged you to a comparison between your State and mine both in personality(dead people excluded) and infrastructure. You people did this to Abia and I had to open an Anambra vs Abia thread which exposed a reality that shocked everyone. Be warned!

Meanwhile a dose of infrastrucural achievement.

Abagworo,its very appalling to me that you.ignored the bad state of Owerri to attack Anambra! Dude,you are threading in a danger zone....Anambra goverment owes nobody a penny and the funds in our reserve can feed the whole se for a decade. Our goverment is richer than all se states joined together..I have said this so many times that Peter Obi's priority is not beautification of Anambra but Infrastructure that will attract industrializatio;good ammenities for the masses like good hospitals,revamped school system which has turned around our school system,empowering investors,especially of Anambra extraction to invest in the state which has yielded fruits. We don't need a beautiful but a broke state like enugu,who is deep in dept. Most of the bad roads that people are complaining is unmotorable in Anambra are federal roads which Obi has been fighting the feds to give him a go ahead to build. Abagworo,do not start what you can finish by comparing Anambra and Imo because you guys will start crying first.

kagel: SO WHAT IS YOUR CONCLUTION SABOTUA,? IMO IS A COOL PLACE TO LIVE,
I KNOW YOU ARE FROM ANAMBRA FROM THE BEGINGING U ANAMBERIANS HATE IMOS, NO PROBLEM
WE ARE BETTER THAN YOU PEOPLE IN ALL REAMIFICATION.PLEASE GO AND TAKE CARE OF YOUR HOME JUJU

Dude,you are insecure! Okija went to Owerri and took pictures and you shameless Imolites came here to attack Anambra...Anambra don't hate you Imolites but your jealousy and insecurities are plain...And Imolites hasn't grown the balls to stand close to Anambra talk more of being better than us....In your fuc..king dream...Don't let Chino see that your post, or else he will bring tears to your eyes!

This is exclusively a yibarra practice....yibarra need to go back to the forest.

Okija,I plead with you to take out time whenever you visits Nnewi to drop in by Onicha and cover it for us to see what's going on there...ejim Olisa bi nigwe ayo gi.

afam4eva: But you wanna hear Peter Obi?

Compare the pictures of Ekwulobia,Amawbia and Agukwu-Nri and the ones of Owerri posted by Okija and you will see there isn't much difference. Anybody comparing Obi and Owelle must be drunk...Rochas look up to Obi. Obi has done so much grassroot development in Anambra and beautification isn't one of his priority.

I'm not impressed at all! I don't ever wanna hear anybody say "Rochas".

Buuullsh..it..When Yaradua got sick and was flown abroad for treatment and Jonathan isn't even aware of what's going and the northern cabals led by Aadonaka the chief justice seized the power and relegated Jonathan to the back door it was an Igbo woman Dora Akunyili that fought the north and moved a motion for Jonathan to be installed as the interim President. She received insult from the north for fighting for your toothless kinsmen and you dare insult Igbo after all the support and block votes we gave to your son Let me tell you nonentities something;Ijaw is a toddler when it comes to political tussle...Rejoice while you can...the Igbo are your superiors and will always be...Your treachery will be addressed with due time....let's see how far you go...fuuucking charcoal looking shoeless fedora wearing drunkards....cultureless bastards...I see you lots feel like its time for you to open your ogogoro mouth to speak to your superiors....with two million population let see what becomes of your future...Remember we are right there on top of you..eediots!
