I'm guilty of 1 tho. Yea sue me! Most guys don't appreciate what they get on a platter so y will I cheapen myself?

I agree with all the other points. Nice one op!

No,the problem here is not with guys not appreciating you if you approach any , the problem here is with local low self esteemed girls like you not getting the true concept of what "independence" mean. Just look at how your post reek of low self esteem and lack of cognitive reasoning. ..you cited a scenerio of guys not "appreciating what they get on a platter" when it should be what YOU GOT ON A PLATTER, being that,it is you that saw,liked,approached and got/won him like medal...

Men have always approached women in good and bad moods because a Man has a complete sense of responsibility and indeed independence whether she sees him as whatever and whether she says YES or NO, he'd understand,survive and move on.

Quit giving excuses for your dearths....grow up and be independent at mind, if a boy you wooed behaves like a typical Nigerian girl with self esteem and confidence issues..DUMP HIM like an individual with a healthy sense confidence would and move on with your own life till you meet a correct guy. Thats what it means to not drop standard.

Pretty lady

You are prettier

lol

There is nothing to it, nobody is perfect and no man born of a woman would let a good woman go.....

You cant expect something serious in a union being a leech except of course your intending spouse is a leech like you.

If you couldnt read the handwriting on the wall then get a new spec. Even players recognize good women and indeed embrace change like a born again simply because shes worth killing for......maybe you should start now and ask who a good woman is"...

If every guy leaves you after a rump in a bed then you need to review your characteristics as a girl.

This madness should stop real fast.

Where did the southern Igbo borrow their warrant chief kings from then?

lol must we borrow it,cant we own it as a result of primordially existing within us from time immemorial ?

fratermathy:
Gee... I should shut up!. Dont forget that you have appointed yourself as the herald and priestess of Igbo culture today. Anything you do or say will be used to judge how your people behave.

That said, if Asaba, Agbor, Onitsha, Enugu, etc, are not Igbo going by what you have said, then where exactly is Igboland? Maybe its your village right? Or are you one of the subscribers to the idea that there are "real igbos" and "fake igbos". Such childish thought!

These four igbo towns you mentioned are situated in the western and northern axis of igboland,a point i have tried to sync into ezeagu's grasp as testament to the strength of whatever influence or borrowed stuff you all are talking about.it has zero impact on the southern igbos. ooh well
...i don taya jare

[quote author=ezeagu post=38643335]It's not really hegemony, it's more of borrowing.[/quote

lol smh Ezeagu, to be honest i dont feel like arguing this night.one can tell by my late replies,i dont quite agree with you but for what its worth,i'll let this slide.

Night!

ezeagu:
There was no such thing as eze in Imo or Abia state before 1920 apart from Arochukwu. The other parts you mentioned have Edo and Igala influence, the so called southern axis have 'nativised' their warrant chiefs and used the Edo system of governance with a king and council of elders. I just used the dressing as well as the importing of the 'excess' use of coral beads by their "lolo" to give an example of how the Edo influenced these petty pseudo-monarchies. The pattern was Edo > Anioma > Onitsha > then through a general Igbo culture all of that was mixed up and adopted by the Imo and Abia hamlets.

Well ,this will be the first time i am hearing of such. I am very sure this tale doesnt in any way include the Aro-communities in Imo state, like Okigwe-Orlu-Nkwerre-Ideato axis as we all know the migration and era of the Aro confederacy predates the edo history and hegemony on igbos.

ezeagu:
The current eze (warrant chiefs) are not of Aro descent, those are copied from the Edo axis. Even looking at their regalia (beaded crowns and fan), you'll see that.

would you also say the same of the igbos in the western and northern axis without the Nri parahenalia in their regalia ?

i know you have a point though, its just that i find that your statement rather hasty and almost fallacious given the fact that the igbos in the southern axis could share similarities with other ethnic groups they co exist with side by side, and hasty in the sense thatyou jumped the whole western and northern axis(places more similar in their prerogatives and royal rights with the edo/benin groups) to the southern igbos.....

That they have almost same emblems in their beads doesnt warrant such conclusive and seemingly farce statement.

ezeagu:
Correct. Well, mostly, there were a few kingdoms but the heads were mainly priests, but all those Eze you see today in Abia and Imo are imported traditions (except Eze Aro).

Please i would like you to shed more light on that statement as from what i understand, if at all the benin/edo has any hegemony/influence over and on igbos,it will be igbos from the western and northern axis of igboland (Asaba,Anambra,Enugu) evidently by their proximity hence their similarity. igbos from the southern axis which is constituents of Imo,Abia and maybe Rivers,are mostly Aro' influenced .

Why so much ballyhoo about the girls from the north Please!!! Many of the prettiest of them all look like sicklers with biscuit bones(not my type of beauty anyway),but why am I not surprise ? The only reason why some of you punks mention Fulanis is because Igbos are at the brim again! Smh

As if we don't all know the fact that igbos are indeed the gem of this country, beauty personified. Even the ones with seemingly ugly names spit beauty when they cough.

The whole south-east states should be on this list otherwise, a consolation to the many ugly ilk who aren't mentioned....

Abia, Ebonyi, and even Akwa ibom should be on this list, I was shocked when I saw some states mentioned surely the bowl of praise has to go round.

LoL Please its a sunday, way too early to start the week laughing like one on laughing pills

lomprico:
Teach wetin? Ikwerre's are migrants from nkwerre people in imo state.

As much as I think this thread and the creator is stup!d and ignorant-based, your post is no different....

Ikwerres are somewhat migrants from Arochukwu no doubt ,and Nkwerre being from same axis as the Aro clans in Imo state only proves that its a town for Aro settlers,same as Orlu, Ideato, Orkigwe. Not that Ikwerres are Migrants from Nkwerre

With due respect sir, you're in no position to pass judgement nor render dictatorial advice to the president on economy crime convictions....

The very least!!

This is not fair o, y'all slaughtering Dbanj,Something like he's a meat for the dogs....lol

lol ok o

Nice development, especially when its situated in the hub of the state with commerce and industrialisation (Aba) ..

Job opportunity guaranteed. Expansion of commercial industries and probably more investors. Good one.

Absolutely Ridiculous!!

lol How can you ask a question like this in the open and expect 9ja girls to say(yes) the truth...of course they'll form na lol and say no o, God forbid, kai!! ,not me o, lai lai and what not. As if na foreign spirit those other girls are.
