Osakwe is an Igbo name sir ...and the last time I checked Ifeanyi okowa is from Agbor the name of the king of Agbor is Obi or Dein of Agbor and they are Igbo name ...( Dee or Dein) is an Igbo title for an elder man or elder ...I haven't seen ovie of Agbor or Ivie !

Agbor, also known as Ominije, is an Igbo town in Delta state, Nigeria. The indigenes of Agbor town are of Ika descent, an Igbo-speaking group. Agbor, originally called Ominije, was founded by Omini from Aguleri. Ominije means "Omini Eze Ije".


You can finally argue with your keypad

I'm think you likely didn't grow there cause people from kwale, abbi, Aboh, abavo, obiaruku even ndoni will never tell you they are Igbo, why should I take you're word over 100s of others?

Is language the only thing that indicates a culture? don't Ibibio n efik speak same language, don't urhobo and isoko speak same language? but they remain separate ethnic groups, same as ukwuani n Igbo.

BabaRamota1980:

Slaves as far north as Agades in Niger were sold through Yorubaland and to the whites at the coast.

Didnt you read Bello, Sultan of Sokoto complained to Livingstone to appeal to King of Yoruba and stop selling muslim slaves to the kafirs (referring to Portuguese merchants)?

Atache by force, must u attach anything that has to do with Yorubas to the igbos??
Yorubas have a long range aged deity and culture that no one can take from them...remember they say " Aji shebi oyo laari oyo oshe bi baba enikan" meaning wake up like a true Oyosian because Oyosians does not act or copy no body's father

My father stop my younger sister from marrying somebody from abia state three years ago, initially I was against my father decision but later I found out from my colleague in d office that is from Ngwa that they eat human being. She even told my that family sell dead body of their family member to make pepper soup and at times they raid mutuary to steal human body for meat.

Attach are pix I got from her phone. You will clearly see a cup of palm wine at the background

You tried but you failed woefully. The criticisms were not only about sexualised Catholic iconography. Lady gaga' judas was criticised for its depiction of christian iconography..read https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/catholic-groups-attack-lady-gaga-for-judas-video-20110415


For the met gala someone commented

“My religion is not your costume,”

She was not talking about hijab or the sexual depictions.


Don't get me started on animated TV shows like family guy and the Simpsons. Christians complain...read

Your bad if you are not aware of the criticisms. There are Christians who don't like it and who come out to say so. Also, it is your choice to keep mute about those depictions. I am a Muslim and I don't think it is right. A Muslim that decides to speak up when it concerns her religion should not be your headache. She did not ask you not to speak up.

Sterope:
Have you been living on this earth for some years now? Because I am sure it was not Muslims that were criticising one of Lady gaga''s song and music video (let me remember the song) and Rihanna''s met gala outfit.

I think I like your selective amnesia.

Sterope:
Believing catholics don't like it. Speak for yourself.

shimardoil:
You are all talking out of sense. Had it been is a Muslim guy that sang a song criticising xtian now, CAN will be making one stupid noise like tomorrow no dey

ChinenyeN:
RedboneSmith, I guess what I first would like to understand is what your primary question is. I feel that the topic can go in any direction really, and I wouldn't want to assume too much and my response ends up including a great deal of fluff before responding to the main thing you're after.
