[s][/s]This post could only be posted on the tree with a banana on one hand.

Imo and Abia states have crude oil, but their combined crude oil is just about 50% of the crude oil in Ondo State.

First of all, Anambra and Imo have more gas reserves than any other states in Nigeria.

Imo and Abia have way more oil than Ondo. Forget all the false graphs you've been fed with.

Finally, I know this thread was created by a Fulani e-rat working for the Buhari administration with the intention of creating squabbles between the SE and SS, especially is that there is a plan to restart the protests

Rugaria:
Few igbos not all. My town had no stuupid eze. The one there now was an offshoot of the warrant chief nonsense

According to the NRI people, only 66 Igbo towns had monarchies before the coming of the white man. All of them were NRI lineages that left NRI many ions ago

Most towns were administered by the Nze na Ozo society, which was established by the Nris also, and at times , a council of elders

KingOdart:
It will definitely look so mediocre to a nonentity like you.


Keep deceiving yourself

All you coneheaded non-entities,. Please go and learn about the Fulani woman physicist that emerged from. Bayero university and taught by one quack Sharia physicist. We Igbos got no time for such mediocre frivolities.

KingOdart:

Keep deceiving yourself

Stop putting together a list of non-entities and expect an Igbo jewel like me, to be intimidated.

Igbo Amaka

Nnewi monarchs were crowned by the Nris. I wonder whether that practice is still going on

KingOdart:
Lol look at this guy talking as if his opinion matter, a nonentity like you

Before you rate them? because you are what?

Who is asking if you rate them or asking you to rate them in the first place?

Do you have someone that is as outstanding as them in your entire lineage?

Of course. Many of them even. I suppose that's why this list looks so mediocre to me.

Write your epistle in Igbo language of STFU

If I write in Igbo, the only people that will understand will be the Nris, Wawa's, Aniomas, Ngwas, Ikwerres, Ogbas,. Bonny and Opobo people, Aros and other Igbo: speaking people.

But I also want northern almajiris to understand, which is why I will keep it in English so you will understand

Racoon:
To think that the senseless government that issued this statement have a national economic think-tank group comprising the likes of Prof.Charles Soludo & others just reaffirmed that Nigeria is in for a long ride.

Charles Soludo is not the chairman of that body, neither is he the minister of finance nor the president

helinues:
You could have written this as well in Igbo language now..

The question you should be asking is whether Ntoooor is also an Ikwerre expression. Ikwerre that happens to be completely different from Igbo

helinues:
In Wike's voice

Trump Ntooooor

Why will Wike say Ntoooor, when he is not an Igbo man.

Ntoooor is an Igbo expression

MusaChukwudi:
Igbo people in a Lagos please your ancestral land ANAMBRA needs you.
Lagosians also need their space!

Please, come and be going!

Unfortunately Lagos also needs Igbo money

Bashir El Rufai tweeted his picture and his igbo bride, while many people felicitate with him others believe it is just a political gimmick by his father towards his 2023 ambition.

Tell them. One said that Anambra people bear Chuma as if Anambra existed prior to 1970s. Arọ that was founded yesterday

Names such as Chima, Chuma, Chukwuma are born by Anambra people, which includes Umunri.

Aros have no chance in hell, of claiming Eze Chima. Otherwise, the Aros would have been involved in crowning Eze Chima and the subsequent Obis of Onitsha, and there will be no Nze na Ozo title holders. Aros would have flooded Onitsha with MAZI, NWAMAZI and ADAMAZI, none of which exists in Onitsha today, as I write.

Today, there is a very vibrant and ancient Nze na Ozo society in Onitsha, which clearly points to their Nri (Eze Chima) past. You cannot make a claim without showing evidence left in the cultural tapestry of Onitsha.

Everyone is now trying to claim Nri exploits, but on closer investigation, the false claims crumble

FIrst of all, Eze Chima was not an Aro man for the following reasons.

The Nris were crowning the Obis of Onitsha up until the 1960s. Onitsha monarchs claim to be descended from Eze Chima. Nris don't crown Aro people.

Nris own the shrines Eke, Oye/Orie, Afo and Nkwo so these shrines can never be installed by Aro people. It can only be installed by Nri people, so the fact that Benin people make use of these market days/shrines is wholly because of the Nris.

Benin is older than Aro, so there is no way Benin will accept any Aro supremacy over them. Nri is way older than both Igodomigodo and Benin, and various anthropological reports by the British colonialists and expeditions by ancient Portuguese explorers have already identified the Nris as being the cultural and religious guardians of Benin.

This is yet another rubbish to deny Nris some of their heritage. Aros don't own the Igbo market days/shrines

Why didn't they add Buhari? Is he no longer a world leader?

Anyway those so-called world leaders are not justices of the US supreme court

Juliusmalema:
Well do I need to argue with freelance nzuzu on freestyle.

Until another one hit una hard.

Nothing is more foolish is sitting in your state and be dragging another man's state and their decision with them. It is simply nzuzu on 360 degrees

Nwokem, there are many Riverians who accept the fact that they are Igbos. Because of those people, I will still keep an eye in Rivers state. Those Riverian Igbos also keep an eye in Anambra, which happens to be my state.

Wike or anyone that supports him, are just a few non-Igbos, in Rivers. Now, you can eat your heart out

Juliusmalema:
That is your opinion and you have one vote. Let the people there decide.

I am not the one to decide for them.


Using one link to console yourself because one atedo said something is nzuzu on freestyle.

Juliusmalema:
How many votes do Umahi command?

Ebonyi state votes are not even up to 350k compared to someone with over 700k voting bloc.

Between both who is a liability


If you are from Ebonyi state, limit your nonsense to Ebonyi state afterall other Political parties won different seats in SE.


The penchant attitude of you guys always looking for loopholes to drag other east states into your nonsense comparison should stop.

It is a total nuisance. If a liability can produce 600k votes and an asset can produce 300k votes who is the real liability and asset .

Meanwhile is a born selfish politician. Same man that went berserk on the media that Atiku didn't consult him before choosing Obi as vp?

What Indolence? How many votes did he deliver to pdp in last election?

Ndi ala

With what has happened to Obigbo people, I doubt Oyigbo LGA will ever support Wike again. The same goes for the other Igbo LGAs in Rivers state.

To make matters worse for Wike, the migrant Igbos from the SE who are resident in Rivers will never support Wike. His support base is destroyed. The Igbo groups of Rivers will be well advised to vote for someone from another Rivers state ethnic group, not supported by Wike.

They should look for a Kalabari, Okrika or Dakuku Peterside from Opobo that seems to embrace his Igbo ancestry https://www.nairaland.com/2691100/igbos-dakuku-peterside

FEGNO:
Why you people are peddling fake new I really don't know. Trump is trumped for good. Better get it into your skulls that Biden is next president of US

FEGNO, Are you from Enugwu-ukwu?

The funny thing is that Chibuike Amaechi was even more vociferous in declaring the un-Igboness of the Ikwerres, when he was the governor.
But today, he uses every opportunity that presents itself, to announce his Igboness.

I can guarantee you 100% that Wike will do the same, once he hits national political arena.

Igbos are not in need of fair weather Igbos. Igbos only need dyed in wool Igbos. Igbo bu Igbo. Unadulterated Igbos.

Another point I want to make here is that Ohanaeze is peopled by wishy-washy Igbos. Even before the time of Zik, Igbos have been cursed with being led by people whose Igboness were adulterated, including Zik himself who declared an abomination, that Onitsha people came from Benin. Thank God the current Obi of Onitsha has made it clear that Onitsha people are hardcore Igbos and nothing else.

Even before Zik, we had the warrant chiefs, who were just the messengers and agents of colonisation.

Before the warrant chiefs, we had the Aros who were involved in selling their fellow Igbos and other Africans, to the white man, not minding that they were sending out the subconscious message to the white man, that Igbos and other black people were inferior to them, and as such, could be degraded to the level of slaves in the presence of the white people.

THERE IS NOTHING BRAVE ABOUT BEING A LIAR.

You had better embrace the bravest Yoruba woman ever.

She is one of the bravest Nigerian ladies I've ever heard of.

She is certainly the bravest Yoruba woman ever..

Kudos to her

Christianity left Israel as a family, came to Rome as a religion, went to England as politics and ended up in Africa as business.

Wise words

Happy to note the MASSOB leadership acknowledging the name OBIGBO, and the fact that it is Igbo territory.

Having said the above, I will keep saying it that Nnamdi Kanu is a huge disaster waiting to happen as he lacks the necessary leadership competences that is needed to navigate the global political and diplomatic web.
He should have remained just the director of Radio Biafra. What is happening now was predicted by late Dr. Dozie Ikedife and the other elders that helped to form IPOB. They made it clear that Kanu's approach will lead to unnecessary bloodshed. They made this prediction, long before the Nigerian government declared IPOB a terrorist organisation. Of course, Kanu pilloried them and used the fact that he's the mouthpiece via Radio Biafra, to run down this well meaning and seasoned. Igbo elders. The result is what we see today.

No one now bothers to investigate the massacre of IPOB members, because of the way Kanu has been leading, and this was predicted. Unfortunately, some of these elders have passed away. Dr. Dozie Ikedife, Col. Joe Achuzie and Barr. Debe Odumegwu-Ojukwu.

If IPOB is to regain the aura and effectiveness that her initiators planned out, then the leadership has to be handed to people like Tony Nnadi of the LNC fame, a seasoned barrister with the swerve disposition to stand toe to toe with global leaders, and with an effective roadmap that will eventually lead to self-determination. Even Emeka Emeksri of the other faction of IPOB will do a better job of leading IPOB.

With regards to the massacre at Obigbo, I assigned 10% fault to Kanu. 90% of the fault for that carnage still lies with the following entities
1 Wike
2 Buhari
3 Buratai
4 The Nigerian army

A Nigerian government official is also involved in the whole sordid affair.

Obviously Buhari's government liaison, to the terrorist group

seunmsg:
Ashiru is a Nigerian government official but you can’t name the position he’s holding or the government agency he’s working for. Anybody can be addressed as a government official. A staff of any local government council is a government official. The media really needs to do better than putting out this kind of ambiguous report.

The did not say A NIGERIAN LOCAL GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL.

They clearly stated A NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL.

It is quite clear this government is a terroristic government bankrolling boko boys.

Igbos have been saying this for a very long time.

The group even nominated Buhari to represent them some years ago.

Now that their official representative is the president of Nigeria, it becomes clear why boko boys will not be defeated while Buhari presides

Biden, Obama, Clinton, Kerry already hurt the eastern part of Nigeria by foisting Buhari on Nigerians.

I don't think any pro-Trump easterner will give a crap, what Biden thinks, in spite of the fact that he spoke in support of the victims of the Lekki massacre, and the fact that his vice is an in-law of Ndigbo.

The current anti-democratic party tendencies in the SE was caused by Biden, Obama, Kerry and Clinton. Kamala Harris is totally innocent of the blame though.

Gratefulheart1:
Lol.
Watch as all those who wanted to die on Trump issue will suddenly switch side to Kamala because of the said niece Igbo affiliation.
Very predictable and unstable lots. Their tribe sentiment is always the standard for judging every issue. If the devil comes today and adopt an Igbo name, immediately he will be regarded as a saint by the whole SE.

Just the same way you lot adopted the evil Buhari because he made Osibanjo, his deputy.
Igbos never adopted Buhari when he chose both Chuba Okadigbo, or Edwin Umezeoke as his deputies.

Most Igbos already know about the Harris' in-law status to Ndigbo, but a lot of us are still supporting Trump. Even Kamala Harris' may even have Igbo ancestry, but I still support Trump.

But if Trump fails to win in court, then good luck to our sister and in-law.

I know it is a thing of pain for you, that Igbos still have a massive stake in the Biden camp.
