Why are you people so aggressive? Can't you correct someone without insulting the person? You should even be happy people are Willing to know about your culture.

If he's not interested in identifying with your culture he wouldn't have answered which to me he did to his best knowledge!

I observe that one must be loaded to get a chieftaincy title and such is the case in yorùbá land, I'm not sure if that's the case with the hausas though.

I saw the documentary that says onitsha people are descendants of Ooni's brother Ooni Itshe. He came Ife, then to Benin before crossing the Niger to establish Onitsha

ghostfacekillar:
lol. Mr. Onitsha is actually a mispelt Onicha. .. That orisha stuff is falacy..

selfemployed:
How come the Obi of Onitsha dress in white regalia like the Ooni of Ife and the Oba of Benin. There seems to be something common about them.

OlaAshawo:
oga shatap

Stop misinterpreting my culture

ghostfacekillar:
please i don't want to start arguing.. White is like purity.. Am from abia state and my king wears white regalia..for them I don't knw cos I ain't an onitsha indigenes.. Itx more like a trend nowadays
.. But for them am not sure cos am not from there....

sassysure:
Are u really from onitsha. Nice to know. I'm not from there but married into one. Have seen few of these people as a prominent member of the family is among the cabinet members.
These people tasked us after having their fill at a burial we did 3 yrs ago giving one useless excuse. The priest also publically told us the amount to put inside envelope for him to officiate the burial mass.
I was tasked heavily as a wife in my absence cos I was due so was advised by my Dr not to travel.

To be part of the women in white, u must be wealthy or from a wealthy background.

Even if u don't want to join, at a point u will if u don't want to take their taunt any more especially if u know u are very capable.

OlaAshawo:
lol they won't even consider you rich if you don't join them

I'm a full blooded onitsha man

you're right our people can be ruthless to outsiders marrying to their own nwa onye igbo

Cyriloha:
otu Odu tilted women on white while
The women on red are the umuada from the igwe's mother's side (ikwu nne)

The men on whites are the ndi oZo
The men carrying something on head like that of the igwe are the ogene's ajiee and some higher titled men
Note -- to get those titles no be here ooo na money
Oya thank me

Cyriloha:
Shut up

julietm123:
Not true.I married outside onitsha and my husband has never really been treated badly in anyway.
Moreover,you are here calling others nwa onye igbo,i am married in delta north, they call me nwa onye igbo.Abu onye onitsha(odoje). I dont even care anymore.
I just see everybody as one now.

Shift your yoruba tendencies out of this thread.
We dont care about what you do.

And yes this is an onitsha indigene.
Thanks

OlaAshawo:
me too sister
Infact it pisses me off seeing my brothers taunting other igbos i always caution them because you can't be in the same proximity share the same political zone answer the same name infact have same market day (orie) as igbos and still disassociate yourself
Infact people like chigbo enwezor do answer odezuluigbo as nick name why not odezuluonicha
dear forget that thing we're one.
i just used the line to explain something to the person i quoted

see this issue doesn't affect men marrying from onitsha because they only face it once when they'll come to pay your bride price everything na double.
it only affects women that married onitsha man (that's if the woman dull)
dalu nwanne mmadu
by the way I'm from umudei

In ancient Igboland, the chieftaincy depends on one's achievements
