BIBLICAL TRADITIONS OF IGBOS BEFORE THE MISSIONARIES CAME TO Africa - IGBO 101.
(Copied)
1. NSO NWANYI In Igboland women live apart from their husbands and neither cook for them or enter their husband's quarters when they are in their period. They are seen as unclean. Even up till today such practice is still applicable in some parts of Igboland especially by the traditionalists. Before a woman can enter the palace of Obi of Onitsha, she will be asked if she is in her period, if yes, she will be asked to stay out.
Leviticus 15: 19-20 When a woman has her monthly period, she remains unclean, anyone who touches her or anything she has sat on becomes unclean.
2. ALA OBI An Igbo man's ancestral heritage, called “Ala Obi” is not sellable, elders will not permit this. If this is somehow done due to the influence of the West the person is considered a fool and is ostracized by the community.
1 King 21:3 I inherited this vineyard from my ancestors, and the Lord forbid that I should sell it, said Naboth.
3. IKUCHI NWANYI Igbos have practiced the taking of a late brother's wife into marriage after she had been widowed until the white men came. Now it is rarely done but except in very rural villages.
Deuteronomy 25:5 A widow of a dead man is not to be married outside the family; it is the duty of the dead man's brother to marry her.
4. IGBA ODIBO In Igboland, there is a unique form of apprenticeship in which either a male family member or a community member will spend six(6) years (usually in their teens to their adulthood) working for another family. And on the seventh year, the head of the host household, who is usually the older man who brought the apprentice into his household, will establish (Igbo: idu) the apprentice by either setting up a business for him or giving money or tools by which to make a ligving.
Exodus 21:2 If you buy a Hebrew slave, he shall serve you for six years. In the seventh year he is to be set free without having to pay you anything.
5. IRI JI OHURU In Igboland , the yam is very important as it is their staple crop. There are celebrations such as the New yam festival (Igbo: Iri Ji) which are held for the harvesting of the yam. New Yam festival (Igbo: Iri ji) is celebrated annually to secure a good harvest of the staple crop. In the olden days it is an abomination for one to eat a new harvest before the festival. It's a tradition that you give the gods of the land first as a thanksgiving.
Deuteronomy 16:9 Count 7 weeks from the time that you begin to harvest the crops, and celebrate the harvest festival to honor the lord your God, by bringing him a freewill offering in proportion to the blessing he has given you. Celebrate in the Lord's presence together with your children, servants, foreigners. Be sure that you obey my command, said the Lord.
6. IBE UGWU In Igboland it's a tradition that the male children are circumcised on the 8th day. This tradition is still practiced till date.
Leviticus 12:3 On the eighth day, the child shall be circumcised.
7. OMUGWO In Igboland, there is a practice known as "ile omugwo ". After a woman has given birth to a child, a very close and experienced relative of hers, in most cases her mother is required by tradition to come spend time with her and her husband. During which she is to do all the work of the wife, while the new mom's only assignment to the baby will be to breastfeed. This goes on for a month or more. In the Igbo old tradition, at this time, the new mom lives apart from her husband, would not cook or enter his quarters.
Leviticus 12:1-4 For seven days after a woman gives birth, she is ritually unclean as she is during her monthly period. It will be 33 days until she is ritually clean from the loss of blood; she is not to touch anything that is holy.
Umu Igbo let us not be deceived. We are God's own people and will always opt to be an Igbo man.

This is great . Well done to the poster. Igbos are great.

WHAT WE LEARN ABOUT US INTERVENTIONS IN NIGERIA
Copied
You would have heard of the recent US Counter-Terrorism Operation in Nigeria that took out a head/commander of ISIS. A good number of Nigerians will be happy that the US, the "White saviour" is here. That's a BIG mistake that will cost the lives of many more Nigerians. Because for as long as the terrorism-facilitating 1999 Constitution remains in operation then Nigerians are still in grave danger: the Fulani Conquest Agenda continues.
All that the presence of the US does is to, for some time, obstruct the Fulani and their helpers in the Armed Forces from sabotage and ambush. That's just going to be for a while...
The real task of liberating Nigerians from this Fulani Conquest Agenda is going to have to come from Nigerians. It is our RESPONSIBILITY and our DUTY. The longer we delay, the more we and our children will suffer because that 1999 Constitution is the evil book and those who enforce it are our enemy.
We must therefore continue to tell Nigerians that 2027 National Elections must be cancelled so we begin Transitioning for Constitutional Reconstruction which terminates the 1999 Constitution. They need to know this and be ready for the NINAS Altar Call.
Trash written by a trash. God bless Trump and Bibi

RuMiRgO1stSon: A video from a-yet unidentified school in Anambra State, which organized an inter-house sports competition, has caused an uproar on the internet. However, it is not the competition itself that sparked the reaction, but rather an erratic dance performed by female cheerleaders from two of the groups. They were seen twerking aggressively on the school proprietor while presenting a gift.

Kailalomo: a vote of 348 to 345, the German parliament voted to close the borders to all those not permitted to enter the country. The resolution calls on the government to launch permanent border controls and for the 'rejection of all attempts to enter the country illegally without exception.'
Germany's parliament narrowly passed a resolution on Wednesday, January 29, urging tough restrictions on immigration that was especially controversial because it was backed by the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD). The motion was brought, ahead of the February 23 elections, by the conservative opposition CDU-CSU and backed by, among others, the AfD party. That broke a long-standing taboo on cooperation with the anti-immigration party. MPs passed it with 348 votes in favor and 345 against, with 10 abstentions. The vote came days after a knife attack that killed two people, including a two-year-old child, with an Afghan man arrested at the Scene
The resolution lacks the force of law but calls on the government to launch permanent border controls and for the "rejection of all attempts to enter the country illegally without exception." It says this should include those seeking protection because in the neighboring EU countries they arrive from, "they are already safe from persecution." The resolution also argues that people required to leave Germany "must be taken into custody immediately," adding that more detention centers should be built, including in empty army barracks.
It labeled as "clearly dysfunctional" the existing European regulations on migrants and asylum seekers. The motion also criticized the AfD, which it accused of "using the problems, worries and fears caused by mass illegal migration to stir up xenophobia and spread conspiracy theories." Despite this clause, the AfD voted in support of the resolution, along with the FDP, helping it to pass despite the strong opposition of Chancellor Olaf Scholz's Social Democrats and the Greens.
BlocksNG: US President Donald Trump will sign an executive order on Wednesday to combat anti-Semitism and pledge to deport non-citizen college students and other “resident aliens” who took part in pro-Palestinian protests, a White House official said.
A fact sheet on the order said Trump would order the Justice Department to “aggressively prosecute terroristic threats, arson, vandalism and violence against American Jews”.
“To all the resident aliens who joined in the pro-jihadist protests, we put you on notice: come 2025, we will find you, and we will deport you,” Trump said in the fact sheet. “I will also quickly cancel the student visas of all Hamas sympathisers on college campuses, which have been infested with radicalism like never before.”
Ehismarkninetee: I was introduced to Tramadol in 2015 because I complained to him that I wasn’t lasting long during sex. So he prescribed Tm to me. At first I hated the feeling I just took it because it really helped with the early ejaculation.
Fast forward to 2020; I am now fully attended to this evil, it is now holding me by my neck, choking me . But I cannot seem to let go.
Tramadol has taken a lot from me; My pride, my focus, my Looks, my health, my family and most importantly my finances. I have had serious seizures that nearly took my life with my family members as witness. Now they know my situation and they are indeed very disappointed in me.
I had another seizure yesterday but the worst part of it is that it wasn’t only the seizure, I was acting demented with my clothes off. I take nothing less than 1500mg daily.
It has ruined everything because just calculate how much I have to spend for this evil everyday. For example I didn’t miss one last year 2024. It seems am now powerless to this evil. I cannot hustle anymore, I just want to take Tramadol and just lock myself indoors, all my friends have left me behind but am still living with my mum at age 31. Indeed am tired. Am really tired
I need help to stop this. I have prayed, I have tried everything. It’s not working. Please has anyone been in the situation before?? Please help me!!!!!
Kingpele: This guy is punishing Americans for voting against him in 2020 elections ...this particular saner clime is going insane....so jobs in USA is no longer safe...u could be asked to resign any moment the emperor want..
