Lanre1979: This is a contradiction. In Igbo marriage, the groom shouldered all the expenses after paying the bride price.
You can't be telling me about my custom Oga, most of the things I use in my house are what my in-laws used to settle their daughter,(my wife) I am from Enugu state as I stated above, I don't know about others.
By the way you afonjas should stop crying more than the brieved, we lgbos pay for the"expensive" marriage but you guys are the one crying. I don't understand again

Even SA, China, USA etc still uses coal to generate electricity
Before you post always get your facts right
I know what am saying, coal is not eco friendly, all the countries using it e,g China USA, south Africa, German etc are being persuaded to dump it. Discouragement of the use of dirty energy always take center stage in each climate summit even the last one in Dubai.
Enugu state government even made it clear to those calling for the revivaterlization of the coal industry that coal belongs to the past
MadamExcellency: Bride Price is only for the parents of the girl. Traditional rites are where the buck of the money lies.
In some parts of the Southeast, the bride price is N70 only. The traditional rites have three lists for men, women and the parents. My father collected N10,000 for my bride price then.
What many f00ls don't know is that in Igbo culture, the parents of the bride spends more than the groom in most cases. When parents buy fridges , motorcycles, cushion chairs, GP tanks , kitchen utensils etc to settle their daughter and you are still crying about what the groom spent which more of it are not even mandatory but just for self ego Eg in most Igbo traditional marriages these days cows are slaughtered whereas the mandatory animal is just goat. Well, am talking from enugu perspective, don't know about others
UnemployedGradu: Igbos should overhaul their cultures too! It's toxic! Spending millions for marriage and burial isn't worthy! Am Igbo before you start quoting me! Omenala Igbo adighi nma ma ncha! Umu nwanyi anaghi ekete ekpe! Women don't even inherit anything in Igbo land! Ndi Igbo megharia omenaala unu maka odi njo! O reere ure nakwa sikaria nkakwu n'isi! They always give stupid powers to first son traditionally that's our my paternal uncle sold all useful lands after my grand father's death! These land would have been worth hundred of millions currently but that uncle is still wretched till now! I regret being an Igbo! I prefer Yoruba culture!
It is not let for you to naturalize you know, just change your name and relocate to oshogbo, thaz all
Is not a must to marry from lgbo land by the way, wheelbarrow pushers, bus conductors, roadside hawkers are getting married in lgbo land. I don't know where you people got this notion .
PressMyButton: Niger state is the biggest state in Nigeria, it is three times the size of the whole SE, a LG is almost the size of Abia state. The terrain of the North is as complex as the creeks in the Nigerdelta. The size of the north with its porous borders makes it extremely difficult in comparison to the number of soldiers per sq km. I suggest a more robust grassroot synergy, a strong determination by both traditional and religious leaders in the fight against banditary. The defence HQ should also scale up the use of drones and advanced tech inorder to bridge any lapses. If you think the Army ain't doing enough, let's withdraw the troops for 48 hours and see if you'd sleep in your house talking trash behind your keyboard.
After eating ewedu you will just open your mouth waaa,. How is Niger state three times the size of south east and which local government is almost the size of Abia state? Abia is times two the size of Lagos but you forgot to use Lagos for your warped anaology
zikter: Yes, I even said it on another thread when someone was celebrating Hamas victory when he heard some reservists are been withdrawn due to the next stage of the war. How can someone be celebrating victory when over 22k of the people are killed and cities turned to rubbles?. The only logical explanation is that, the life of the killed is far worth less than the other. Is a pity how Muslim consider their life worthless
Reminds me of isreal Hezbollah war of 2006, the Arab world are still celebrating it as victory against isreal despite that Beirut was almost destroyed with over two thousand Lebanese killed while isreal lost less than a hundred soldiers with their cities intacit
It appears as if victory has a different meaning to Muslims.
Ironbull: The way you are surprised same way I'm surprised at Palestinian people.
They have died in thousands and they are still saying Isreal will go in shame, which or when is the shame coming? Is it when only 5,000 Palestinian remain alive is the shame or what?
The Palestinian scenario reminds me of Biafran war, Ojukwu and his lieutenants are in a safe bunkers enjoying themselves and directing the war from the safe coven just like Hamas but Ojukwu have to end the war by going into exile when it becomes obvious that the civilians he was fighting for are at the receiving end of the war , as they suffer hunger and starvation. The military superiority of the federal forces over Biafran fighters is nothing near in comparison with that of isreal over Hamas still Hamas are not being advised to surrender.
zikter: Unfortunately, they are also dealing with unforgiving Israelis, the reason why they have survived in that region. Kill one of them, and at least ten of your people are going down
.it is one for hundred, remember that isreal once released hundreds of Palestine prisoners in exchange for the body of isreali soldier killed by Hamas. This is to show you the worth of an isreali compared to a Palestine.
Ironbull: Why can't these Hamas just throw in olive tree for peace because the way it is going the longer the war goes the more Palestinia population is reducing significantly.
What surprises me is that none of their supporters both as countries or individuals is advising them to surrender at least for the sake of the civilians. None !! All they keep saying is that isreal will live Gaza in shame while thousands of Palestinians keep dying, then more shocking to me is even the fact that the Palestinian civilians who are at the receiving end of this war are ok with Hamas despite all they are going through. I thought that by now they would have protested against Hamas.
Tealcrestmedia: People assembled from Europe and all over the world are busy killing indigenous people so they can keep taking their lands unopposed. It's alright.
Same thing fulanis are doing in Nigeria but you are ok with it because they are fellow Muslims.
Raskimonojendor: They are the same people that support a bigot and cheered a Pastor ebubu who said 500 Hausa men equals 1 Ibo man. Peter Obi even encouraged the pastor Ebube by worshiping with him for cross over night in December 31st 2022.
So you now agree that christians are majority in Nigeria ryt,. because they rule 20 out of 36 states in Nigeria, even the defacto governor of FCT (Wike) is a Christian 21 -16

Biafrannuke: Reno Omokri's Facebook account has disappeared after claiming yesterday that dilapidated brown roof houses in Ibadan attract thousands of tourists
Someone should give me link to the his account.
Edited
He blocked me
He is a coward, can't stand anyone that bursts his lies,. He blocked me long ago after I gave him wotowo. Only abokis and afonjas cheer him up.
kerry57: Good one. Plateau state gave obi, a good number of vote in the last election. I am happy to see him there. Nigeria as a country need to be sincere about this insecurity thing.
Watching the interview of people from this part of plateau say what is actually going on there on arise tv makes my heart bleed. The government and the security team seem to be complesant in what is going on there.
It's plateau, Borno zamfara, imo, Anambra today, it might just be anyone else's state tomorrow. It used to be Borno alone then, look at today
Why add lmo and Anambra ? Why not Ondo, Niger, Sokoto and Katsina ?
SonOfDSoil01: hahaha see reverse psychology😂 you rather say you can’t do without your master because we feed y’all…if dem born Una well why not stay back home now that you peasant migrant have all gone back home for the holidays. Do us a favour and remain there and let’s see for the leeches are..shameless pig Abi Una no want Biafra again?
I want to buy your father's grave, how much are you willing to sell ? I promise to remove the bones and give you but my fear is that you might sell the skull
Coldie: Q3 is likely the time Alex otti became governor. Since he became governor when was the last time u heard of any Biafra issue from Abia state?
The rise in investors is cause investors have faith in his government.
Even seat at home in Abia state ended just by the governor appealing to his people.
That credit goes to lkpeazu not Otti, from the time of lkpeazu Abia is being regarded as the most peaceful in the south east.
Also remember that lkpeazu commissioned the center table flyover on monday when sit at home is at highest level and the likes of Ugwuanyi doesn't come out on Mondays.
DeOTR: Foreign investment doesn't equate development in every sense, it mostly signifies capital flights in the real sense. Take foreign investments in the oil sectors for instance, more than 90+% of the dividends are going to people outside of Africa and these are also part of the foreign investment we talk about. Let's not even start with the discriminatory compensation system these foreigners practice in their organization. I would be worried only if there's no investment at all.
The thing is that if it comes to local investment south eastern states will come second, third, fourth, and fifth after Lagos.
The stretch of road where I live only this year Roban mall opend, Chicken rebublic opend,. Crunchies opend with another eatry that I can't remember the name with a hotel. These are in one road oo , about 5 other businesses are warming up along that road maybe by next year.
SonOfDSoil01: Dundee united, what are your slave economic migrants generation still doing in Ragos? I thought y’all would have relocate that to Abia so Ragos and Sw can breath…Shameless flat head economic migrant
Is good to know that we are choking you people, it shall be permanent.
