we'll hear that he was jailed because they were jealous of him and the US judicial system is an enemy of progress e.t.c

seedord247:
Did you like someone calling you this name?

Sangosegun,

Ifakemi,

Okija chukwu

and also remember that we're still a developing country.

You are sooo sounding daft . . .are those the names you here on the street especially at the age or you just feel like saying rubbish? What about chioma, Uzo, Ololade, Bukola, Tunde etc. If we are a developing nation, does that change your nationality? or does that remove your origin from Africa or Nig?

sayso:
That guy is a dead meat.He better start preparing his defence before God.

@Oludashmi.
You are displaying insufficient knowledge of Igboland here. Anyway, you can learn here. Igbo communities are clan based. People of a clan live in the same area. They do not build a house at one location and move miles away to build another. It is a fallacy to type so.
Here is an example for you: Kindred-Umueze, they all live together, next to that kindred is Umuawuchi kindred but in the same ward, next to that is other ward and all in the same clan.
In West Africa, Igbo land is the most congregated area and the most populous. People from Kindred to ward to clan all live close to each.
Please do not type further crap as if there are no Igbo people here. Even though, they do not enjoy replying junks.

As for you Andre Uweh. . . . I have read too much of your posts but like I said, I choose not to reply to some posts on NL, all of the craps you wrote up there should have been better at the igbo section where you cause confusion btw your bros. . . . so you can excuse excanny and I. . . . we know what we are doing

@excanny
ogbeni, where are you frm and you have not answered my question. . . .ar yu going to the village this december and hw much are you taken along? I have a deal to click

excanny:
Did we block the road at onitsha for you people to come to the SE to see us do own 'supposedly' bad things? It's because of your people's over-bloated ego, that you are better than Igbos, that is killing you people.(though they are quite a handful especially in Enugu, Coal city)

excanny:
I no be Yoruba wey no know their village again. Actually, i dont like staying in Lag, its too crowded for my liking. I hang out in PH and Aba when i'm around.
What about you, which state are you from? And hope you know your village?

Hmmn, first of all, point of correction, we dont have villages in the SW, we have 'home towns' cos we dont build houses far frm each others, it is against our culture (except you are a leper), we have houses next by next (town setting), it is only in the SE (and some other parts of Nig) that a man builds a house followed by bushes of 1 kilometre and then another house and bush again of 1-2 kilometres again and house, so it goes, which is a village setting . . . .the village statement in Lag is as a result of igbo influence. So back to the question, its true sha, Lag is crowded but we are enjoying it

Most of my igbo friends have not been to their villages since 15yrs, 20yrs and so on, infact chinedu from Ngwa just told me the last time he visited his village was at 2yrs and now he is 29. . . .excanny pls go the village in december and fetch those guyz some millions but avoid the ritualists oo

Yoruba pple no know their home town in their own land, did yu hear yurself? ori e ti ko 'gbe.

oludashmi:
I was in Cotonou on Saturday (23rd/oct/2010) when an Igbo girl of 17 years was impregnated by her dad and died while he took her to a quack doctor for abortion and he was taken to the police station . . . . then my Cotonou friend said the thing is becoming rampant even in their midst, but I didnt bring it to NL cos I see it as a sign of end time but here you are rejoicing over a general thing (not only in Nig but even abroad). . . . so please find me another point and I will prove to you that your exposure is too low.
1. Not once in a while at all.
2. I grew up see that it is possible for a woman to be 4-5 months pregnant for her husband who has been out of the country for over a year and everyone (Yoruba, calabar, hausa around) thought the man will send her packing when he arrived but he PROUDLY said it is forbidden to reject the pregnancy in Igbo culture cos anything that comes out of her is his this is just one of the many i have seen but I dont want to expose you :-X

excanny:
Haba, funmi, you disappoint me, Lag chicks dey dey extra informed. What you said here is trash talk. But it's a common fallacy held by Yorubas in Lag. Don't let me remind you of Abiola and his DNA-failed kids.

asha 80:
You say delta state.Is delta state an ethnic group?Do you know there are more than 4 ethnic group in delta state?Is ibori an igbo man?
You also said cases in niger delta?so the whole of niger delta is igbo?I am sure to you too Okah and edwin clarke are igbo.
Please stop displaying ignorance.

Did I say, delta state is full of igbos only, or did I say ND's are igbos? Go back and read the posts then get the message . . . .although you understood the message but just pretending

excanny:
^^^ lol.
What gets me is that their targets are usually their friends' wives or daughters. They are even known to sleep with their own daughters, which is kind of exclusive to them minus the 'calabars'. They see it as some kind of 'superiority conquest'. It has to be a married woman for the thrill to be achieved. It's publicly encouraged and celebrated. It is further encouraged by the muslim polygamists among your people. I dont want that kind of destiny for my sisters. Yoruba women are used to it and it's fine if they like it.

excanny:
^^^ lol.
1. Yes, once in a while you find an Igbo married man with such tendencies, but believe me, they are largely in the minority. That's why like you said 2. we dont bother about DNA tests because unfaithfulness is rare and a strange concept. 3. The belief is that the gods of the land will kill such a woman or 4. man that flirts outside their matrimonial home.

1. Not once in a while at all.

3. That my Nnewi colleague brings 2 of her friends (married) who live in PH and Enugu to the office but you know the secret, they come to Lag and any other part of Nig where market is high to meet their men friends (also married), take enough money from them and go back to their husbands, THEY ARE HIGHLY FAITHFUL indeed. . . .leave faithfulness jo, it is an individual thing, no tribe, no race judgement. . . . they used to share their secrets with me but ever since I told them to stop it, they started excluding me frm their discussions.

3. Beliefs were effective in every culture b4 the arrival of the colonial masters . . . .but at their arrival, they brought us education and christianity then told us that our beliefs were mere superstitions and baseless so we started doing the abomination things secretly and nothing happened to us, hence we got to know that beliefs are things of the mind.

4. Even men? You are a big liar. Cos all your fore-fathers should have died and your name shouldnt have been heard cos they all had more than one wives and concubines. . . .leave lies for coming children

excanny:
^^^ lol.
The embrace of Christianity from the europeans imbibed monogamy into our psyche and nothing can change that. An Igbo man can never be too BOLD bringing a second wife into his home. His mother must not hear it.

You know you guyz say so much about us cos you are scattered around our land and see us, whereas you have forgotten that worst things are happening in the SE where my pple, your pple and other tribes are far less.

Will be going to your village this december? When was the last time you even visited?

excanny:
1. Funmi, bawo?  Se o si wa ni Lag. Moni cousin mi kan l'eko ti oma trip fun ti o ba ri. He's the kind of Igbo product that Yoruba girls roll themselves over for(fair, tall and cute). O complain fun mi pe awon girls Yoruba won je ki ohun gbadun. Mo fe ki o meet tie someday.


Ok, back to your question. 
An Igbo man, on the other hand, will do everything to protect his wife and marriage because they just dont have the time to be looking for '2. ale', or for philandering with everything in skirts.

This why a Yoruba woman  or 3. any other women are better protected in the arms of an Igbo man than vice versa.
I speak the truth, babe.(no ofeinse).
Maa send mail si e soon concerning cousin mi.

1. O ti n cra.ze ti pe. . . ti awon omo yoruba ba n roll fun cousin e, ki lode ti ko ti mu ikan ninu won, he is just looking for a way to avoid purchasing a girl as if he was buying a house in Ikoyi. . . he wants a place they will tell him we are not for sale and do not sell our children

2. As for 'ale', there is no man on this planet earth including 'clergy men' who is not polygamous by nature, given same parameters! And looking at our forefathers (all over Nig and Africa, SA president has more than 5 wives), they used it as a means of explaining how wealthy they were cos the number of wives, children and pple they catered for justified their affluence! Se o mo pe there is no bas.ta.rd in Igbo land, all children (proven or not) MUST be accepted by the husband, hence they dont do DNA like other tribes even though their women are the only ones who keep giving birth to whites in the name of genetic mistake lol. (no offence).

My neighbour from Ebonyi, his present wife is the third (wives are from Imo and Anambra), and the probability of sending her away btw this yr and the next is 95% and take the forth. The two women have thereby re-married.

3. Also, 60% of the married men who have approached me (sincerely) are Igbos who have vowed to their wives that there is no one else after them . . . . I even know one in Ikeja right now who already has a second wife in Ikorodu but the wife doesnt know and he is still trying to woo me. A calabar friend of mine who married Igbo just got to know that he has 3 kids in the US. Two different friends of mine (Yoruba) who married your pple has called me twice (God is my witness) that I should avoid them cos they are not real. So what's your point?

An Nnewi born and bred colleague has vowed never to marry an Igbo and her boy friends are always either Yoruba or Edo, she said she wont say more than that. If she eventually marries Edo or Yoruba, you pp;e will say a Yoruba man has married another Igbo girl instead of saying she has just escaped from the lion's den.

So have it in mind that Yoruba men do theirs in public while Igbo men do it in hidden. . . all the same, men are men!!

excanny:
Dear, dont be worried. Believe, igbos are the most accommodating i've seen in this world. Why? Igbos are very migratory in nature. They cannot to be hostile to strangers because most times they are often strangers. Probably you are yoruba. She worked in Lagos? Many igbos who lived/worked in Lagos develop what i call 'retaliatory dislike' (myself inclusive) due to the unwelcome attitude of the locals to immigrants. Its your boyfriend that will 'sell' you to his mum, together with your attitude. Normally, igbo girls are raised to be hardworking, they do all stuff of tough task, like ride bicycles. I'm not saying you ride a bicycle, just showing how tough igbo girls are expected to be. If you are not lousy and industrious, you'll be good enough for any igbo mother-in-law and accepted.

adidison:
@abeem,

Seun is right.

It’s actually because of the religion and location that people from the northern part of Nigeria are referred to as Hausa which is very very wrong. As a matter of fact they are different tribes and religions there like for instance we have the Hausa - Kano, Kanuri- Maiduguri and the Zangokataf (or so) - southern Kaduna(xtians) and i think they call the people from Abuja and Jos with different names. But Nigerians are too lazy to even bother about it [/b]or refer to them individually so they classify them by their location. They just call (classify) every person from the north Hausa. Ok like Edo people, they refer to them by their location MIDDLE BELT, see). I don’t think it’s because they want to do what u think NAHHHH. I bet they are even to dull to think like that. lol (didn’t mean that O, b4 they start another riot say na me cause am) abeg e don do like that. [b]WE ARE ONE NIGERIA O.

Morayo2906:
I previously posted a question about whether a significant age gap can work in relationships where a woman is 10 years older than the man.

Many of you thought that that the relationship was doomed and his family would never accept me especially as my boyfriend is only son.

Well after telling my boyfriend that this relationship is unrealistic, he now wants me to meet his mother because he's convinced she'll love me just as he does and wants to prove to me that we can work things out.

Have you got any tips on what I should do and say when I meet her? For example, I know I have to bow but what do I call her? 'Mrs' or 'mum'.

I'm learning Yoruba. Should I greet her in her language to show I'm trying? Should I bring a gift? If yes, what?

I just don't want to embarass my boyfriend given that he has put so much faith in me despite all hurdles in our way.

Abagworo:
We Africans should be proud of our heritage.The words you were trying to compare with Hebrew are more similar to Edo and Igbo than Hebrew.

Sam Milla:
So many good concepts does not work out in Nigeria because majority are very poor and uneducated and scared.
As a matter of fact currency certificates and gift cards are widely used all over the World.
The little issue i see here is that becomrich is going too political with the idea.
The Nigerian people need economy they can control.
So i still maintain that this is a good idea if it works but a lot of money is needed to implement this.
And the problem usually starts from who won the contract.

LAX89:
Typical Nigerian, always thinking you have a better idea. Yet your country is a mess. Do you think the faculty of the university just roled off the bed and chose the movies they did, or perhaps you know better than them what their curricullum should be. Have you first, wondered about why they chose the movies they did, or what thier prime objective is. I think not, but yet you want to tell them which movies they should include in their subject matter. Nigeria, too many chiefs but not enough indians.

namfav:
the course probably shows how not to make movies aswell

EzeUche0:
We all know the reason why you posted this.

But this belongs in the crime section.

tmacmember:
This self acclaimed deacon also operates High yield investment and a lot of people invested without getting returns.
He organizes free seminar where he entice unsuspecting people.
He also collected money for laptops and so many people are yet to collect there laptops.
I have no doubt he is Kenneth Ifeanyi , though he denied been Kenneth Ifeanyi and he claimed to have bought Kenneth Ifeanyi mailing list after Kenneth Ifeanyi defrauded a lot of people on the same mialing list .
Now Austin Azubuike the self acclaimed deacon is defrauding Nigeria.
He claims to reside in Kaduna, every one should watch out for this man.
Watch out he could come up with another name or push some one else forward to front as i believe this is still Kenneth Ifeanyi working through self acclaimed deacon Austin Azubuike.
Nigerians BEWARE.

Super T:
Can this man be Kenneth Ifeanyi?,

Youngichou:
AHH dont compare Anini to this Osika or Osiku. You should know Anini was a hero. He did it to help people [/b]and not for selfish sake like this [b]blood sticky Igbo naughty person

Anini help people 
Where are you from cos the other time, you were insulting the Yorubas and now it is Igbo. Dont turn this place to a tribal place
Someone rebuked you over the weekend about your way of commenting, another person did yesterday, here you are again!

Cmarketer:
1. This is a call for all Christians who have been touched by this man's ministry to start praying for him. 2. The truth is that he is a good Christian who spend most of his good fortune in God's assignment. 3. He is not as greedy as others who were selfish.4. Think of the inspirational TV, 5. daily guide, etc. 6. Lets be praying for God's mercy for him.

1. Which ministry?
2. Did God confess this to you? Or do you stay in the same house with him to define his christian life? He stole to give God?
3. From your statement, it means he is a small thief. No different btw small and big thief. Besides, his bank committed an offense in the site of God and man.
4. Use your head, this is a profit making business
5. You cant steal to give God, it is not acceptable
6. Go ahead and pray for a successful armless-robber. He gave multi-millions of loans without collateral.

He, Cecilia Ibru and others should die by firing squad.
