You made little sense bro but you are ill-knowledged. Its the attitude of a particular people in a society that determines the level of trade and commerce in that land. The Igbo's knew that the S/West gives room for their market to thrive and that's why they relocated to the region than your false description of One Nigeria. The Igbo's will only speak of One Nigeria as long as it pays them: they and other ethnic groups are not doing Nigeria a favor but rather they gain massively from Nigeria unity. To deny such will be to lie greatly to ourselves. I am so sure that unless Nigeria exist, Igbo's would have a great challenge getting Visas to most other regions. Do Igbo businesses not have disturbances in Delta/Bayelsa/Portharcourt and many parts in the Norths than any where in the S/West?
I must say the Igbo's value system of Monetary Acquisition as the peak of Achievement is the major reasons why they fill the whole of Nigeria and nothing like their love for the people. Who will forget in a hurry the sad days of Igbo's scam traders in Oshodi pro-Fashola's regime? Igbo's are definitely industrious but for what? Its definitely to have over-bloated ego while Yoruba egos are handed over by their hierarchy system that "demands" you respect those in the higher part of the society and family; hence their enforcement of Respect in their culture. If you wanna marry an Igbo lady, will you as a Yoruba man scorn their culture of heavy billing to get their daughter? Will you not respect their culture so that you can go well with the family? The day you disrespect the culture and tradition of your host community (America and Canada have host communities) is the day you draw suspicion and backlash from them. If you know you wanna keep your style, just stay where your style is not perceived wrongly otherwise adjust to avoid cold and hot war with your host.
N.B: Don't try to come up with that superior constitution thingy: Even Constitution respects customs and traditions. Or should we all just ensure we marry an Igbo lady or Yoruba lady without doing what their traditions and culture dictates? And if you are not comfortable with their "backward" culture, leave their enclave and go to where you fit in easily. FYI: No culture is better than the other in Nigeria, they are just unique.

Respect bro.

This is not true. Ezes carry the HRH appellation with their title and they represent it as a royal seat.

nice move, before dem deport them ndigbos

MayorofLagos:

You must live in a vacuum if the only time you witness tribal conflicts in Nigeria is when you hop on internet and come in Nairaland.

teeowl:
now everybody knows... if another Eze ndigbo tries it again he would be flogged and humiliated by "boys" that might even be younger than his own sons. The precedent has already been set!

Haywhymido:
peace!!! Dat is what the mature folks frm both sides want. Thank u Sir

nochildsplay:
tribalism is actually everywhere, but it's obvious that what this tribe wants is attention and you people are giving them. Guys!!! Let's stay out of threads and topics that has to do with these people.
All they clamour for is attention, and the more we comment in their thread they are getting it......

Let them creat the thread , argue among themsleves while we laugh at their noise.

I don't have an access to that clip due to poor network coverage. The general agreement was that he was never told from the onset that he shouldn't wear a crown. If you want to avoid these chaos, you should teach the non yorubas the codes and conducts allowed or disallowed in yoruba culture. Since he wasn't taught initially, he is not to be blamed but should have obeyed when he was informed.

Activa:
The Igbo in Akure, the Ondo State capital, are trying to reconcile with the Deji of Akure, Oba Ogunlade Aladetoyinbo, after a few days of bickering.

The monarch had accused the Eze Ndigbo, Sir Gregory Iloehike, of insubordination and lack of respect for his authority. But Iloehike denied the allegation, saying he couldn’t be arrogant to the tribe that has accommodated his tribe for over many decades ago.

Rising from a special meeting of Ohaneze Ndigbo at the palace of the Eze Ndigbo in Akure, the President-General of Ohaneze Ndigbo in the state, Chief Okechukwu Okorie, said the Igbo respect the Deji and would not do anything against his wish.

He said the Igbo in the state are peace loving people, adding that the Ohaneze Ndigbo has started reconciliatory moves with the Deji and palace chiefs to ensure peaceful and harmonious co-existence between the Yoruba and Igbo in the town.

The group described the relationship between the Deji and Igbo as that of a father and his children, noting that the monarch remains the father to all. He said: “The Igbo are law abiding and we remain good subjects of the Deji of Akure. We can never warn the Deji on any issue, rather he is in position to warn us.


“The Deji is our father and we are his children. Whatever he wants is our wish and we shall continue to obey his directives.” Okorie, who hinted that the Igbo leaders have decided to reconcile with the Deji, informed that efforts are on top gear to reach out to the traditional ruler.

He urged the monarch to forgive those who might have offended him, adding that the Igbo would continue to maintain the peace for which Akure is known for.

MayorofLagos:


The man said his people have lived in Akure for 70yrs. You said somewhere else that an Eze is a liaison and acts as go between the two cultures. There is contradiction in your claims if the person responsible for promoting culture is the one also flouting it.

In 70yrs, Im sure the Deji palace has received numerous Ibo leaders. Gregory is not the first to visit, so why is he the first to get flogging? Its simple!

He is a flagrant violator....not a one time violator! Im an advocate for violent treatment of Ibo rebels. I call for a similar treatment on Ibo in West as is done in North because Ibo is deaf to verbal admonishments, but very responsive and settled to battery. I guarantee you this Eze will never flout the Deji's instruction again.

Ihuomadinihu:

He is not a monarch.

MayorofLagos:


The authority that speaks for Ibos say he is, but you diverge from under an authority to claim he is not.

In Iboland your response is the mainstream and in order. A Yoruba standing out of line with authority is regarded out of order. Out of order is not mainstream in Yorubaland. So you can see the wide gap between our culture in West and your culture in East.

We don't care what you do in East while you are there, that's your prerogative. When you are in West, where orderliness is paramount and is mainstream we ask that you conduct yourselves in order so you may partake and derive gains of the mainstream tide. If you do not heed this simple expectation, and you attempt to install disorderliness you brought with you when you migrated to our domain, we will fight you and uproot your economic gain from our land.

Nigerian Constitution does not support disorderliness anywhere.

I expected this sort of strong outburst when a bastard king of Lagos had the temerity to order a group of free citizens to vote a candidate or be ready to drown inside a sea. Of course,that is your darling ruler and he is above the law and free to incite violence at the expense of innocent people.
That shows how sentimental and tribalistic yorubas are.
The Eze has move on and is well aware of his position in Akure,if you want to keep repeating your bigotry on this thread,by all means possible,pls go ahead. I don't see Igbos supporting the actions of the Eze but it's interesting to note that the misunderstanding has been settled but you folks are still threatening fire and brimstone.
It's a pity, the discussion is long over,move into something productive!

MayorofLagos:


Duke,
I opened the link and saw list of Biafran territories. I see Ondo included.

As Afenifere said, Eze structure and deployment has something far more sinister than just cultural exchange. It is an expansionist drive. Simple!

I hope the Obas and Governors will work with Afenifere and de-recognize Eze stools everywhere in Yorubaland.

Good thing Oba of Lagos has already started caging them. Did you see Ambode's cabinet? Not a single Ibo. The first thing Ambode ruled on after inauguration was cancellation of Falomo Shopping Center Contract, sold to Elumelu, an Ibo, for 30yr management. After completion who do you think Iboman will allocate shops to. When we discuss in future how Ibo got a secured foothold in Lagos Fashola is one of those to be blamed.

Ihuomadinihu:

I see lots of insecurities everywhere. Why use the actions of one to judge a whole group of people. Ondo is not and will never be part of Igboland, that is not possible. How will Ambode put Igbos when they never supported him,that he did not include Igbos doesn't stop igbo exploits in Lagos state. Some people make comments just for the sake of making comments.
If Afenifere see Eze ndi igbo as an expansionist organization and want to derecognize the figure,then they have no business in this modern society.
Now i understand it's a complex thing not cultural.

Dcaliphate:

i've lived in Akure, bro, majority of business outfits and huge building structures are owned by Ibos, not Hausa/Fulanis, truth be told.

I never knew y.i.b.o get sense like this o..

Igbo kwenu!

Shymm3x:


Lmao!!

I'm actually surprised Lagos isn't included cos that's the place they covet the most. They should've done a Russia and turn Lagos into Kaliningrad.

These folks are utterly greedy and mentally impaired...they think everything is about emotions and money. Just take a look at how they picked all the states around them with resources - including the axis in Kogi with resources. Suicidal scam artists!

Hopefully, folks in Lagos will start doing the right thing. The last election was actually nauseating to watch, especially how they made the elections about them. You can't do that. Once you start overstating the importance of certain people, you'll only make them brazen. Especially when you understand the type of folks you're dealing with.

Hey stow the tribal attacks. What's with the "y.i.b.o" name? Move on.
