That of Ogun State is becoming a daily activities. Stop defending evil.

Who is defending who?
How can a devil cast out a devil?.. Can those who themselves are neck deep in ritualism be more self righteous than another who also engage in such practices.
Is Cannibalism better or less than skull mining?

This tribe is powered by human blood

And how about a tribe of cannibals

Rugaria:
This is what you guys should have been doing for years, to end this embarrassing nonsense but you all kept quiet, because your Obas who are neck deep into this nonsense never gave the go ahead orders to stop it..
Finish them off.. they are of no use to the society. And while you are at it, tell The Oni and his gang to stop doing things like this.. Whether it was a wooden human head that was in that basket or not, it gives all sorts of bad impressions that need to be stopped immediately..

Is it not rather hypocritical for those who use heads of virgins for ritual fortification to care so much about a spec whereas they've got a log in their own eyes.

Attention seeking FFK wanted to use Bianca to chase clout, the heat was too much for him he had to shamelessly apologize

Ok, u don edit your comment.

An ex minister, a former aide to the President wanted to use a former sexmate with no political relevance to chase clout?.. Use your head na. If FFK wanted any clout, he goes after those at the top of the chain like GEJ, Buhari, Tinubu and not an irrelevant Bianca that can offer him nothing.
Would you ever believe FFK if he comes out tomorrow to apologise to snow white for what he had done to her?

Hear what Dino said after nacking Remi.......

Dino and Remi are two parallel lines that can never meet. Try another line.
Meanwhile, Bianca kept the secret from Ojukwu. She didn't tell him that FFK shifted her womb in London.

Trust me, You don't need to spend this much before smashing Bianca.

This is what I was expecting from Soludo as CBN Governor but he ended up being a failure. He has started making another round of empty promises to the people of Anambra. I doubt if anything can come out of that man.

I can boldly say that when Lagos State captures half its population- about 10 million into this system, the Federal Government will most likely adopt the template across the federation.

kettykin:
Rather than this , Lagos State should spear head the restructuring of Nigeria, in a restructured Nigeria where everything works, Lagos would be for lagosians .a lot of people are in Lagos because of the lopsided federal structure of Nigeria where i have to leave the sea port closest to me to import goods for my warehouse , often times i have to travel to another city for consular services and to use international airport. This is the fraud under which a lot of people come to Lagos

Lagos is naturally a prosperity status. It is not because of its resources but very largely as a result of the spirit of enterprise and hospitality of the dominant tribe that peopled it. And which was why the British had to pass over other states to make it a Capital city.
There are other states with seaports, natural resources and shared border with neighbouring countries yet were not economically appealing enough to the British, hence the relocation of the Capital city from Calabar to Lagos.
Governor Wike challenged the FG over VAT, Governor Akeredolu is making a good use of his office to modify structural changes into a new constitution. He has also taken up the task to provide a sea port in his state which he complained was being delayed by FG's approval.
These are proactive measures some forward thinking leaders are taking in their respective states to change the status quo. But has any Governor in your region done to challenge the present setting?
Since you were born, the only thing your leaders told you was that Lagos is holding back your destiny as if your destiny has been poured into a bottle and buried in Lagos. You complain about Lagos and heap all blames on Lagos while neglecting your leaders who are sharing your destiny like kerosene and stealing them in a Pandora account abroad.
I ask again, what has any of your Governors or Lawmakers in Abuja done to challenge the FG or change the status quo in the Constitution?

BKayy:
Did they provide any evidence?
Pictorial or otherwise?
Or police report?

This is the most stupid propaganda I've seen in a while. It shows desperation from Yorubas to change the narrative of their skull mining

Are things much worse not happening in the east?. It is only a callous minded individual that would read through the links and not throw up.

If Okoros like, they could bury their heads in the sand and deny all they want. It is the same demonic spirit of ritualism in you that is making you engage in a fight back against the media that's trying as much as possible to bring sanity to SE region.
You deny ESN killings, Cannibalism, Mkpurummiri. You deflect, refused to take responsibility and ridiculously pin the vices on someone else.

You could have denied kidnapping if Evans was not caught in Lagos.

You could still have denied human parts harvesting if Clifford Orji was not caught.

You could have denied baby factory and baby trafficking if the syndicates had not been bursted several times over.
You could as well have denied prostitution if all fingers were not pointed to a particular direction.
Officially, Anambra alone has more hotels and night clubs than factories. It tells much.

You do not have to hit your head against a moving train whenever the media exposes the ills that have eaten skin deep in your neck of the woods. Fighting the media is an effort in futility. A wise person would Accept the reality, Arrest the ugly situations and Amend as quickly as possible to create a safer environment.
It is my hope that more media searchlights would be beamed towards the region for the sake of humanity.

Are you a child living in Jupiter?
So when you see a John Wick's movie, you go all out with blazing guns to kill your perceived enemies?
Oga, use your head o.

Kids of 16-18 in the US pull out a gun and leave their school mates drop dead and some with injuries just because a John Wick acted it. A teenager was motivated to pull a robbery stunt because a Zubby Michael acted it in movies.

Better stop hiding your head in the sand and face the reality staring you in the face.

redPUSSY:
It's not true..


Any Nollywood movie that portrays blood Money always have sad/disastrous ending for the people that engage in such blood Money in such movies

People would rather damn the consequences as long as the movies protrays the shortest route to making money is through ritualism. They would be fascinated by the thrill on the face of their celebrity actor throwing money up the air than any punishment that may come after.

Kanayo O Kanayo and Asaba Nollywood movies should share a part of the blame. They glorify blood money and ritual killing as a means to high social status. The plot of the movies is mostly about a poor village man who after being mocked and scorned by family and friends, decides to join a cult of wealthy men with the demand that he donates either his beloved mother or wife in exchange for riches.

If you would take your time and Google up on slaves bracelets/anklets/manilas and how the voyage of Europeans took the pieces of metals to West Africa to obtain slaves.
I feel so shameful for a group of people who felt so ignorantly exhilarated that their ancestors were purchased as slaves for a piece of metal.
You exhibited vain boasting as your ancestors were adorned with a slave symbol. If anything at all, your ancestors do not deserve your psychological approval of the degrading of their human value. I'd advise you guys from the east to be sensible and sensitive in your chestbeating. Your childish attempts at glorifying slavery is a crime against your ancestors.

aribisala0 , pls try make your findings too, when I have the time, I'd make a thread about it.

aribisala0:
Eboes were Choice slaves. Meaning anyone wanting to buy slaves PREFERRED Eboe slaves.

They must have been very good slaves

Ibos were preferred slaves among the neighborhood. They were considered as inferior by their neighbors who sold them off.

BKayy:
Choice means preferences. That is, they were specifying that what they have with them is the real deal. The most sort after and costly Igbo, not Yorubas that worth nothing.

But I thought you were denying ibos were not sold off as slaves.. Lol.

They selected young iboe women that could endure marathon sex and young ibo men who were not plagued with kwashiorkor that could survive the hard labor on plantation farms.

..

Ibo negroes.

BKayy:
[s][/s]
And your proof?

What you can't deny does not exist. The whites were even making a public announcement of your ancestors.. Arochookyou, ijaws, itshekiris, Binis, Efik sold your ancestors to the whites in exchange for a bottle of dry gin.

aribisala0:
EZE IBOM ISI

NNUBI DYNASTY

Arochookyou sold off ibo slaves through Bonny and Calabar slave ports. They were picking ibos like beans.

This is one really hit your cone-skull. let me expansiate for you. Isobo was a generic term used by the yolobas to refer to any one from the east.

as u can see, it was clearly stated those blacksmiths were from Awka and most popular amongnst them was "okafor."

Your people weren't technologically advanced to make superior guns Like mine, which was one of the biggest commodities during the early 20th century. of which your people never had the skill or had the Intellectual capacity to produce such magnifico weapons at that time..

"Nigeria had gone far beyond making guns in in 1930 ? " Nigga u sound dumb walai, to-date aren't guns still in production. lolz

That history is really hurting I know, So I'm not surprised u keep pouring out incoherent trash just to ease your pain.

In 1930, Nigeria had grown beyond village compartments into a bigger entity with southern and Northern Amalgamation. There was ethnic stratification and each tribe was uniquely identified from each other. People from different tribes were trading among each other in city centres along north & south. This was 1930 not 1903.. Let your brain conform.

People have been identified as ibo, Yoruba, hausa, Bini, Urhobo, Fulani, Itshekiri, Igala, Ibibio, Ijaw, Tiv, etc. It was clearly stated that they were called the Isobos (Urhobos ). In fact many would easily refer to people from the east as Eboes in a sweeping categorization or generic terms even till date.

Dane Gun making in a traditional blacksmith using forge and charcoal cannot be compared with the ones with high calibre tech in modern era. Dane Guns were primarily for hunting back in the day. Today, Guns are used in security & wars.
Don't quote me again, you too dumb.

You should travel round small.come to anambra and see yoruba tailors buying land and driving good cars,and guess what,igbo man patronize them more than igbo tailors because they know what they are doing.so stop all this your trash talk.

But they are neither disrespecting or lording it over their host. Would you say they are making overreaching demands of their hosts

he was sought after? or he was just been helped out of poverty, ode. he is just a mere salary earner as u can see on the list The Igbos are the pillar of his firm.....

no go fine work keep looking for omonna to give u tax of 100naira so u that drown your-self in your oil- condiment called ewedu.

He just helped a man with over 27 years of experience in Oil & gas, financial services and Accounting, out of poverty?.. A man that has been established in the profession long before NestOil was founded. A man that was hired to help grow NestOil, if e easy why is ibo not the CEO EWT?
You think all senior executives of an organization are salary earners?.
You have no idea that some are hired on contractual terms.
The scope of industry is beyond ibos, just face your 2×2 jeje.

BKayy:
If four Igbo slaves equal to an anklet, then 40 Yoruba Slaves will be the equivalent.

Do you know why? Because one Igbo slave equals to 10 Yoruba Slaves.

Remember that Seriki Abass sold 40 Yorubas for one umbrella
https://thenationonlineng.net/behold-an-umbrella-worth-40-forty-human-lives/

I couldn't care less how many slaves he could have sold for half an umbrella. I am so much more sensible than you would ever be to glorify and gloat over white men selling off your ancestors for as worthless as an anklet. Men chained like a beast of burden while their wives served as sex slaves. That's what you glorify when Oyinbo puts an anklet on your ancestors. I will never glorify such a dehumanization when I see an umbrella shielding some wealthy slave raiders from sun and rain or a mirror carved from the finest glass around the world. Your mentality sucks.

bomb24:
u're too old to be this emotional, and yes Igbo brought civilization to yoruba-land this is a fact u must accept and live with.

I read about some itinerant blacksmiths called the Isobos (Urhobos) who migrated to Yoruba hinterlands in the early 30s with a slightly modified blacksmithing.
I wonder why you guys find it extremely difficult to make use of your brains in matters requiring basic logic. As at 1930, Nigeria had gone far beyond cutlasses, iron and gun blacksmithing. Nigeria was linking cities with bridges especially in Lagos. There were storey buildings, oil Mills, roads constructions, schools, there were handful of graduates at the time. Nigeria was not a kind of Stone age society as at 1930.
I wonder why you sounded so fulfilled about blacksmithing as though people were still living much as hunters and wanderers.

aribisala0:
There was no such transfer of technology
That is a blatant lie
You have no oral traditions about the accidental discovery at Igbo Ukwu so how you can wake up and claim to have tranferred technology to anyone is just bizarre. Technology you did not transfer ANYWHERE in Eboeland ? Not to Owerri Oguta Aba or anywhere? but to Yorubaland
Foe all we know the stuff was Igala stuff from a period before they were forced out by later arrivals which would explain why there was no oral tradition or similar findings anywhere else

What I see here is a strategy to tell so many lies hoping some will endure.

If ibo ukwu was accidental, what about Arochukwu which was originally an ibibio heritage. Ibos were the last to catch up to civilization around the neighborhood.

BKayy:
All you wrote is to you savages.
Ndigbo, Hausa and Kanuri have already mastered jewelleries before Europeans came.

Here is the picture of the account of the white British emissary "Baikie", when he attempted to buy one of those anklets the magnificent Igbo woman I posted her picture was wearing.
He noted that each cost an equivalent of whooping four able bodied slaves.

Damn Igbo women are goddesses that are adorned with wealth. Does an Afonja ugly woman deserve to wear something like that.
Can the whole of Afonja land afford to decorate one of them with such when the Alaafin does not even wear rubber.

Even though the snippet you posted was not explanatory enough. However, I could deduce that about four ibo slaves equal the value of an anklet. Four ibo slaves had to be sold off to the white merchants in exchange for an anklet.. Are there any further snippets?
