Someone has to serve the Kola nut na. If he is the youngest there then he has to serve it no biggie.

I doubt if wizkid will do it, rather he will be like '' am an international artist even if am a Nigerian " after they will say Afonjas have respect... Mstcheeew

Hmmmm... Showing off humility or kola?

Na me be wan come serve the kola?

Igbo bu igbo.... Ekenem unu!!!

it's culture. The youngest must pass the kola around and be the last to pick..it's called respect,something this indomie generation children know nothing about.

Who no want to identify with the winner
But o o... he has been there since yesterday

Jim Iyke is real son of the soil. Film notoriety is not bigger than culture and tradition.

Goes to show he is humble afterall

You are half right.

Here is the correct explanation:

In Igbo culture, every freeborn is equal. So nobody is made a servant. Rather, anytime kola nut is presented by the owner of the house (the host), there is a particular way it is passed around from source until it reaches the elder that will pray and pour libation.

Jim carried the kola and was passing it on to Ikeyi and he may have represented his State or village or clan.

In kola nut tradition, who is senior or elder is not calculated by age but from where the person is from. For instance a little boy of 14years from Nri may have to have the kola before it gets to a 60 year old man from Awka.

Always dishing out hateful, weird, odd-out comments.

Jim Ike is a foolish man for supporting this liepod terrorist leader.

Afonjas o...Make una take heart.

this guy just abandon that white woman in her country

why do I have a feeling that all he wanted was a biracial kid

Una know say biracial pikin dey fine..he just wanted a fine kid

now he is pursuing Biafra abeg no forget your pikin o

From what ayam seeing eh, e be like dis awa biafura don dey get head small small

So people still chew kolanut in 2017? I thought someone said candy already replaced that bitter thing.

Dalastically:

You people are suffering from massive inferiority complex.
You must always drag Yorubas into every aspect of your lives, before you can feel validated. Mtcheew.

While a 65-year-old former drug baron sold his people for a plate of ewedu soup.

You are very wrong bro. The youngest serves the kola and picks last; which I have done many times. Are you an Igbo or you goggled the above opinion? Please try and attend Igbo meetings to learn more bout our traditions.

their business

I guessed as much, Jim Iyke the freedom fighter
