If not for anything, I like Reno and Asari for using every opportunity to taunt the Igbos.

How can some Igbos be too emotional to give prominence and attention to someone like Reno? A childish psychopath who lies and causes chaos for a living?

Someone who has no history is telling you whose history maybe be better than his that you have no history and most Igbos are riled up already. As if other tribes in Africa were not wearing leaves and animal skins before the so called history.

If you don’t stop giving relevance to people like Reno and Asari, una go learn the hard way.

Nonsense!
Errrr…..actually NO.

Other “tribes” in Africa wore clothes and gowns and even exported textiles and soap to Europe long before colonial invasion.

In fact the earliest universities on Earth were built in West Africa, in the Mali Empire, and scholars from as far away as Europe traveled to Mali for education, from at least the 11th century.

In the Benin empire, ancient European visitors of the 1500s wrote that the people dressed in very colourful clothes and lived in beautiful large houses which had no front doors because theft was unknown.

Dear Chimaobi,

Thank you for your feedback. You asked for photographic evidence? Please find attached a piece of furniture upholstered with the original antique colonial era upholstery fabric, which some of our people now refer to as 'Isi-agu'.

Also find attached a White European man wearing the same head warmer that some of our people now call their 'traditional cap'.

These materials were introduced into Igboland in the 1850s. If you can show me any documentary evidence of the existence of Isi-agu or your traditional cap before Bishop Samuel Ajayi-Crowther brought European missionaries to Igboland, I make a vow and covenant to pay you ₦10 million.

Do you even see what some of our people call okporoko (stockfish) today? It is also not of Nigerian origin. It was a prominent aspect of the relief materials used to address the Kwashiokor crisis between 1967 and 70. That is why and how okporoko became popular in Biafra and Igboland till today. We have Chief Awolowo and the nation of Norway to thank for Okporoko. Before the Nigerian civil war, Nigerians did not know anything like Okporoko.

Thanks again, and may God bless you.

#TableShaker
So the clothes were introduced in the 1850s?
I thought you guys said that the igbos started wearing clothes in 1970? So how come they were putting on ishi agu in 1850? Disproving his earlier thesis while trying to impose a new false thesis?

Okporoko btw was being consumed before the war. There are.many Abiriba businesses involved with okporoko as back as 1940s. Google Nnanna Kalu..Hate is a bad thing. And Reno has finally allowed his hate for the igbos to unravel him.

Reno Omokri is a compulsive liar and an identity thief who has made many false claims and offered money if found to be wrong. But the truth is that he has never redeemed any prize after his false claims were debunked.
Prove him wrong. You convert upholstery cloth to traditional cloth and you are not ashamed.

Mr reno
You say your problem with them is was because obidients insulted your children which is very understandable and could be solved ..because I’ve been following to try to understand why you always give negative comments about the igbos
But lately I beginning to think it is deep rooted and are using obidients as the perfect excuse
Hopefully you can look beyond the differences and support them too

Well Tinubu is actually a great escape if you ask me. This is also a bigger issue as that was something that happened in 1850 and this one is something currently happening to Nigerians

The Yoruba have always been a master race to the ibos.

A Yoruba man was the first to translate Igbo language to English.

Shame on you for believing the words of a notorious compulsive liar like Reno Omokri, who is not proud of his Urhobo tribe nor has spoken about his Urhobo tribe but is always fixated on the Igbo tribe.

What's is wrong with winter cap

Is culture not dynamic

He is a hoot bro. A bit mischievous but very careful to manipulate and present proven facts to serve a narrative.

Omokri works hard to be factually unimpeachable. I doff my hat to him for that. He is almost always impeccable in his delivery of facts. Spin Doctor extraordinaire.

If I was Tinubu, na no brainer to deploy Omokri powerfully.

The isiagu is of print material and not an embroidery.

How did they print isiagu or rather the lion image in the material ?

Catholic mother wrapper came about when the Catholic church did giveaway to their womenfolk.

It was what got them into church and to attend mass with cloth.

Prior to that, most of the womenfolk went butt naked
