BabbanBura:
Ubangiji doesn't mean God. It means Lord

Do you know the actual Hausa word for God?

BusinessCity:
To confuse naive people


Ubangiji is God and not Allah. Allah is a creation of man to follow a strange set of ungodly rules contrary to God.


If people delve deep into the origin of the word Allah, you'll be shocked to see its root deep in Baal, pro-government time idol King. Ba-al which was wrongly asserted as a straightforward word Baal.

Allah is simply Arabic for God. But since almost all Arabs are Muslim and they make all Muslims learn and use Arabic when praying, it is usually taken to mean the Muslim God is specifics.

So Igbos also take surnames Edo surnames for that matter

I don't know about taking Edo surnames but I live in the North and yes, I have seen people that I can confirm to be Igbo (go to village yearly) that have taken Northern surnames.

(Sometimes it is they have Northern Father but Identity more with their mother's tribe, while other times the last name is changed to the first or middle name of an Igbo patriarchal ancestor that had northern middle or first name.)

AlexBells:
Don't be too emotional, if you checked my post history I once reasoned in that line but that's exactly what the outsiders wants us to do

It isn't just outsiders. Almost all Ikwerre Youth will say they are not Igbo and I don not want people saying that Igbo are forcing them into political union, causing inter-generational conflict like we have with the Northerners.

VirginFinder:
Thank you!

But some Igbos are seriously claiming the bearer of the name.

Quite pathetic!!

Stop acting like you don't know that Igbos commonly take names from other tribes and vice versa.

Many Igbos take English names, Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu took Northern name and same with Zik to a lesser extent and this even happens vice versa as you will see many Bini and Ijaw with Igbo names.

AlexBells:
I prefer Igbo Province like we have the Ashanti Region in Ghana and England in UK, I prefer a return to Aburi accord instead full scale regional governments, The president should stay alongside a regional government on tribal line as an Igbo I will not support regional government where we will be East rather I prefer Asaba be added to Igboland and Igweocha with Ezza and we can be in the East central Region, or Alaigbo or Igbo Province

True. All the outlaying Igbo areas that still identify as Igbo should come back, I agree. But the level of Autonomy should be up to that, tht Scotland has in the UK.

Qelvin:
I doubt they would, except they want to incurr more unnecessary losses.

The prop on the top sending to die don't care. How many have died to Boko Haram and they are still treating that one like children matter.

It is police that instigated the shoot out, if they should be arresting any "instigator" they should be arresting police.

Abeg, Igbo people we should grow up and stop doing this. No amount of proof not backed up by force will ever get a Nigerian tribe to accept that other tribes are not it's inferior. If you like bring all the papers Fulani and Bini will still say Igbo are slaves until the day that Igbo are free of or in control of NG.

Also, this is a tactic of white racists. We shouldn't be copying oppressors.

junketer:
I am igbo but I don't know what irabor means

It is probably and Igala name but it could also be a different dialect pronounciation.

Igbo people relate with Igala people alot so thy intermarry and as such share names.

Dialect pronouncian can vary alot like Ifunanya is Ihunanya in Umuhia and their word for soup is completely different.

obailala:
Hmmm... Lucky Eluonye Onyenuchea Irabor, an Anioma man has just been appointed as a service chief but there're still cries in the open about PMB not appointing Igbos in the military?... Going by the current sentiments, a Delta Igbo man apparently isn't a 'proper' Igbo man...

When it's convenient, we claim all of Anioma land, Igbanke in Edo, some parts Benue and half of Rivers state as Igboland; but when it comes to politics, we thoughtlessly discriminate and ostracise these people even publicly all because they aren't from the south east zone... and we wonder why non-southeastern Igbos have sworn to never accept their Igboness?

It is also that those people don't keep up to date with news. Look at what happened when they said only Igbo in also rock was photographer.

Everybody believed it but it wasn't correct.

AlexBells:
People should stop playing on the collective emotions of the Igbos, he who excludes us has more to regret, Government is turn by turn but even at that Lucky Eluonye Onyenuchea Irabor is an Ika man, an Igboid community in Delta.

There is nothing like Delta Igbo any longer, all of Igboland is one, Congratulations Irabor and the rest should stop trying to make the Igbos feel left out, our security challenge is peculiar and those who need service chiefs should have them.

This is President Buharis presidency, 2023 we are working for an Igbo president, when it is our turn nobody should complain, that's when you will understand that Igbos are majority and not just majority but majority Christian.

We never expected that Buhari will pet us anyway so, it is a welcome development but Igbos if we feel bad let us all prepare for 2023, non of the current politian will represent Igbos come 2023, we are leaving APC and PDP if they fail to give Igbos presidential ticket let's start a regional party in the East with Eastern Youths majority.

So now I hope my people understands that this is the turn of the Fulanis, let them do with power what they wish, it is only temporal let's concentrate on building a better Igboland.

Everything is good here except that we don't need Igbo president.

What did Ijaw president (Goodluck Jonathan) do for Ijaw?. Any Igbo president will be slave of Fulani establishment. What we need is referendum and a return to a truly Federal model. Let South-East and the outlying Igbo areas have their own fully Autonomous again, as we had before (except this time non-Igbo portions of former Eastern Nigeria can chose to stay or form their own region).

gregyboy:
Did i hear benin is a biafra land, what nonsense

MelesZenawi you have to call your brothers to order, if it was the otherway round you will already be crying pity


Half of biafraland is historically edo land, we all will rather all go into extinction than go with Yoruba or igbo republic


Edo nation is big enough to stand as a country
Lagos, ontisha ekiti, ondo, Delta would be enough to form an edoid nation

We dream off

And if they decide not to go with edo, we will stand on our own as a country

Edo would only voluntarily join southern Nigeria anything beyond that would be meant with fierce resistance


The shit we took from the idiot awolowo in western region and the sudden invasion of the toothless ojokwu on Midwest state would make we edo never stretch hands of friendship to any party

God bless the sovereign nation of edo

Fine, just agree not not fight with criminal Liegyria

Glorious

Niger police are just a well armed gang. Why else would citizens be living in fear when the police are supposedly going after hoodlums?

Is it not in gang and cult war where gang and cult members would be randomly attacking innocent people?.

Lol.

Learn Southerners this is how you cover each other back and cooperate.

Last time it was FUNAM that declared Jihad on Nigeria and Ishaq covered up for them and lie se FUNAM no talk am. This time it is Arewa council covering for Miyetti Allah.

Don't be fooled but learn. If one southern group talk something whe go spoil cooperation with another group whe u need cooperate with, cover their back, se na rumour, then for Night to meet their leader to talk to am make him calm down.

Una obviously go continue de do watin una plan but do am inconsispiciously.

Oh, so like the first sex party that police themselves that did the investigation said it was rumour but they still use the chance to demolish person restaurant.

Abeg, they just no wan go do the real job if fighting terrorists so they go harras innocent people.

Loveurneighbour:
You're just looking for away to defend the Christian Terrorist's evil deeds. Terrorism is Terrorism.

I am not defending anything. We should keep our definitions exact and our speech concise. If the Government wanted to talk about "Christian terrorism", he should have said "Christian terrorism" not "Christian Boko Haram".

Fluid definitions is how people get away with saying bullshit

Loveurneighbour:
You're too lazy to investigate.
They don't need to go far...

I will help with that...

We really need wake from our slumber!

Boko Haram is just a Bussiness with a religious undertone!!

Fine, when I have time I will confirm this but this seems more like general evidence for terrorism not evidence for Boko Haram. For all we know they could have been supplying/working for anyone from Niger-Delta avengers to Ansaru.

Let us not forget the attack on a church in East that everyone was blaming on Fulani Herdsmen that turned out to be gang violence. How many of the above cases would turn out to be cult clash, weapons trade or something similar?.

And even if they are "terrorists", "terrorists" are a bigger category than just Boko Haram.

Turantula:
All terrorists are muslim but not all muslims are terrorist

It isn't even all terrorists are Muslims, there are arguable Christian Terrorists.

But it is pretty obvious that there are no Christian Boko Haram. There whole ideology is forceful Islamization and the eradication any form of non-islamic learning/literature.

No way that they would accept Christians.

favor914:
Aren’t there Fulani members in Ipob? Or all ipob members are Igbo?

There are definitely no Fulani IPOB. IPOB blame everything on Fulani and Britain so why would they accept any Fula, especially since they don't even accept Yoruba.

There are members from the other tribes of the former Eastern region tho.

favour32:
I think say na brain you dey use reason.I nor know say na anus.

With a name like "ConfirmedZombie" I think they are trolling

Farki:
The only credible evidence is the discovery of euros among dead insurgents. Aside from that anything else is just speculation after speculation.

Even that isn't strong evidence.

We know the insurgents buy foreign weapons and they could have Euros for that reason.

And while Christians are the main population that go to Europe there is still a sizable number of Muslim Nigerians there.

PigTormentor:
Criminal Association of Nigeria - CAN.

These idiots only ask for evidence when they are implicated in any bad news. If they had said this about others, they will be singing praises of the same man without asking for any evidence of such pronouncement.

See HYPOCRITES.

But in this case there is no evidence to support what Zulum said.

Like you would have to explain to me why Christians would want to join a Jihadi Caliphate or why a Jihadi Caliphate would want to recruit Christians.

Like if you are looking for a crime to blame on Christians, there are still people kidnapping Children Ooo.

favor914:
All Ipob are Igbo, but all Igbos are ipob?

not all IPOB are Igbo, there are some IPOB from the other parts of the former Eastern region.

This is stupid. It is obvious that Boko Haram is a Muslim problem, like no one in their right mind would start saying Niger Delta avengers or IPOB are Muslims, so please go deal with your own problems.

I don't like sharing country with IPOB criminals

But Christians will never enter Mosque, they will burn down every Mosques they see.

I don't want to share country with intolerant immoral Christians

Logan23:
Nope. Fulani is a proper minority.

Hausa cant ever be number1..

Pls list those states where hausa people dominate, u cant lump up the whole tribes in d north as hausa

Keep Bitching

9jaDoomCountry:
IT IS A LIE, IT IS IPOB

IPOB teleporting all the way from East

Arrewa:
Lies!

Sahara reporters is truly in a war with the Fulani Nation!

There's no doubt about that...

This fake news was refuted by Saleh, Masari's Aid.

Sahara reporters are not just only at war with buhari's government but with his tribe as well.

Imagine associating criminals kidnapping on behalf of the government to a social cultural group.

The downfall of Sahara reporters is very near...

nairaland bigots food don dorn...

Read through the comment and you'll see stereotypes and insulting of a whole tribe because of fake news.

If You like stereotype and insult us from now till eternity,it won't change nothing.

The jallohs have developed a thick skin against your hate, lies and Propaganda.

God bless the Jallohs!!
