1st attachment :—‘Best’ Igbo structure from the late-1900s (as proudly posted by one of your chanpions).



2nd attachment: ‘Best’ Yoruba structure from the early-1900s (as proudly posted by me when one of your own ‘unjustifiably’ brought Yorùbá into the mix).

Now you know who isn’t developed at all. Wipe your tears quietly.

[s]I think I now understand what is happening here. That is the obsession of Aribisala0 with Arochukwu and the Igbo clans that make it up.

In as much as he knows nothing about it, he just imagines it to be exactly like their Oyo where foreigners are the ruling clan.

It is no news that ruling Alaafin clan is of Nupe Origin, who the Yorubas call Tapa

They sacked the Yorubas and took over the Alaafin stool since 16th century

This thread is about how Eboes lived once upon a time

So they claim to be egalitarian but all the evidence contradicts that,

What we have is a misogynistic hierarchical society of unusual cruelty to women and other undesirables whom they call OSU

My dear, all the things you see on media isn't actually what's happening in that country. I can't talk of South Africa becuase never been there, but let me talk for the one I know. Why not travel there and see how things are for yourself.

In fact 70 percent of Ghanaian'swho know little about Nigeria, when you call Nigeria they think of the Igbo people and rarely the others. Media give the news to make cash, it isn't what's actually happening there day to day.

Ghannies also have their bad too, we do crime, but your media doesn't bring it to your news, why? It isn't their national problem. But they snoop on the Nigerians, especially the Igbos here becuase it's a national problem. Do you get the logic now?

First, he knows nothing of what he speaks about, he is going off two lines of some rubbish he read from an Efik author but yet disjointed.

Starve him that attention so that the thread will not be derailed. Instead post more things and pictures.

It was pretty odd that the mods deleted my previous thread discussing how ancient Igbos controlled the Lower Delta, when other such similar threads were allowed to stay up. They also deleted another previous thread I posted talking about ancient Eastern Nigerian civilisation which was also quite peculiar. undecided

But in any case, I have decided to recreate a similar thread called "How Igbos lived in the past".
Ancient igbos controlling the lower delta?

Igboid:


It's very funny. I don't blame them, I blame the brainless Igbos in SS falling to their tricks.

Ijaws would shout that Ndoki is Ijaw when it pleases them. But when it doesn't, Ndoki becomes Igbo.
See a post they made in their stupid Facebook page:

Did you know?

In 1884 (c), an Igbo ruler in Ohambele by name Odumegege (Ohambele is located in present day Abia State) was so infuriated with the fact that King Jugbo Jugbofem (Jaja pictured here) of the Ijaw kingdom of Opobo refused him to trade directly with the Europeans that he started insulting Jaja by saying that how on earth did Jaja an Igbo man became so powerful in an Ijaw kingdom. Jaja being a man of few words, reacted to this insult of belittling him as an igbo even after taking the oath of allegiance in Bonny that made him a complete ibani ijaw civilised man. Jaja sent his war ships down to Ohambele with instructions to capture this loud mouthed igbo man alive and bring him to Opobo, where he was SKINNED ALIVE, Till this day, a drum made of his skin is still played occasionally in the ijaw kingdom of Opobo.
This is one of the many, many, many Ijaw propaganda to claim relationship with Opobo and Ubani.
Notice the way he turned the tale to identity issue as if Jaja was defending one imaginary Ijaw identity in Opobo?

There was never any time Opobo was referred to as Ijaw Community in history talkless of an Ndoki son that see it as part of their clan making such blunder like the narrator in the screenshot claims.

The tale is totally different from what you posted. It has something to do with Aro and Ubini Ukpabi.
Besides, it wasn't only Jaja that did it. They were three or four chiefs from the Igbo main land. Can't give the full details now but just know that it was a handover.

This screenshot will give you a hint of what happened

So, Igboid discard that fallacy. It is another Ijaw propaganda.
It seems now they are becoming cleared that Ndoki have no single relationship with them so they want to bring a friction between Ndoki and Opobo.

When we are ready for the bad side of Jaja's tale, we will discuss it accordingly not entertaining Ijaw propaganda designed to divide Ndoki land.

I guess you pulled out this date (i.e. 1975) from your strong dirty hairy ass.

For your information boy, that photograph was taken about a century (short some years) prior to the photo of those your “iGbO cHiEfS”.
