Like i told one of ur brothers. YORUBA man can only visit 6 states in his life...

i understand that you are a special child.. I am from the south-south... abia state has no access to the Atlantic. Maybe Yoruba guys would find your jokes funny

chuna1985:
U need to start coming out of south west so that u can know more about nigeria.

im from SS.. I'VE BEEN TO EVERY STATE IN NIGERIA and every major town in SS
where is the access to the atlantic?

chuna1985:
Abia state has a direct contact to d Atlantic ocean. U n ur lots can keep creating falsehood for as long as u desire.

Son, get yourself a map

Arochukwu.

just wait.. when I clear my table I'll give u small gist

pazienza:
Just as Arochukwu reeks of Efik and Nsukka reeks of Igala.
Igbo is a diverse group.
But the fundamentals remain the same.

how can arochukwu reek of efik? oga una dun start again ooo

dned:
And what is south east and south south?

Its political (not even in the constitution)...they are eastern Nigeria. I'm can tell you that an average person in the south west refers to se/ss as 'omo ibo'.

the same way the average Malay sees every Nigerian as an Igbo fraudster

Macelliot:
Educated illiterate...

Hausa enforced their language on the Northerners... Almost every Northerner speaks Hausa...

---

And mind you.. SE is more developed than SW apart from Lag...

---

There are Igbos in SS... The Nigerian govt. is trying to divide us, but failed woefully...

Macelliot I wish you weren't Igbo, you sound like someone who could be objective if presented with the right facts .

Only NW and some NC speak Hausa. The Hausa never forced their language on their neighbours. The Fulani came and supplanted the Hausa kings using liberation for the slaves and lower class as a tool . Then they sealed it with a common religion. They all retained their languages, even languages that are now lost are due to dying off of the few remaining speakers.

The SE is not far ahead of the SW. Lagos is excluded because it wouldn't be fair. Even the Aba and Onitsha are not so special as you paint them, abi no be those rustic storey buildings for Fegge and upper iweka? Main market is too dirty, ochanja is too dirty, upper iweka is too dirty, Onitsha south is too dirty, even those stores almost under Niger bridge are nothing to write on. The SW has brown roof all over, osun na shrine city abi, ondo has few infrastructure abi, Ogun state has opened up as the new Lagos , illorin is beautiful, ado ekiti is b4àutiful,. so una no too pass each other.

The renewed attempts by Igbos to rewrite history is what is dividing Nigeria

dejavski:
Don't mind the ignoramus...
If indeed there was boundary adjustment then I guess t would have ceded my home community to another state.

@ the bolded, I @ a time heard of a proposed coastal state that will involve the coastline ilajes Ijaws and itsekiris. I don't know what killed the agitation. Do u have an idea of this?

The proposed Ijaw Toru-ebe state was DOA because it contained areas where they were recently migrant to. Areas in edo state were also included in the arrangement when the ijaw settlement was less than a hundred years old

Abagworo:
Akalaka gave birth to Ekpeye and Ogba. Recently some people started adding Ikwerre because of few Akalaka linked migrants to Emohua and concluded that ikuruoda is Iwhuruohna but that is not for me.

Iwhuruoha is simply Ihuoha in Igbo which translates to face of Oha. What is Oha? Oha title is still taken in all of old Owerri district which includes Ohaji, Etche, Ngor, Oratta and Ikwerre. All these people are related.

If you want to trace the backbone of Ikwerre origin then the evolution of Aro merchants, medicine men and oracles is the answer.

I've read the Aro history and I haven't found any link with ikwerre

Macelliot:
Do you know what?

There are more ethnic groups in Adamawa state than the Entire Southern Nigeria...
But still yet, the North maintains her unity...

because they do not use numerical superiority as weapons for balkanization. The ibos are always quick to mention that they are the economic spine of their host towns, and without them the towns would be nothing. Even if this is partially true you don't have to shove it in our faces because we give you the enabling environment to operate

fr3do:
It is a recorded programme Coconut head

sorry

Please, what's the answer?

IPOB123london:
To the man above me those writing does not take away the fact that billions of oil Money squandered by hausa fulani and yorubas are stack in White Banks in the name política at best.

so would u say Donald Trump is lying that u are only good in shagging and owambe free dancing

For us IPOB he only saying the truth. Ok is it propaganda

I'd explain in very simple terms. Donald trump isn't lying but he attacks Hispanics , Indians and Arabs too. He has a penchant for overstating things. He has been described as the cancer of conservatism. Note that Donald trump said some Africans are only good at sex and theft. Abroad, the most popular Nigerians are Igbo for drug smuggling as is often proven by arrests and executions, the Yoruba for cyber crime and credit card fraud and the Binis for prostitution. So I don't see how trump was referring to Nigerians excluding Ibos. in fact if we take it to a personal level, 90% of Nigerian crimes committed abroad involve Ibos, you can check the records. As for the monies squandered, what has the SE done with their allocations over the years? as they have very bad roads, very very bad roads with little infrastructure. Before Monaco asked for independence they already had infrastructure. If Biafra should attain what they seek today, they'll be a financial and moral burden on Nigeria

Kestolovee95:
Why don't you do the publishing yourself and tell us a phantom story of how soldiers in Biafran camoflage in raped your Bini mom in her prime before the hausas came to your rescue. You think you can still deceive people now? in this age?

I'm not disappointed, I understand.

IPOB123london:
Mr nijiyeria
the latest news have it Donald Trump in America said Africans have no brain in their head, they are only good in shagging, only good in owambe dancing, sorry this is coming from a white man in US not IPOB. So would u say he is racist
Would u also say this propaganda then
Anyway save your none sense we are going to Biafra

I've been following Trump's rallies keenly.. before now, nobody really took him seriously. Within the republican party, trump has a net negative rating of 39, worse than any other candidate and compared with his egotistical and unplanned speeches , the average American doesn't like him either. mind you he doesn't just attack blacks, he attacks Hispanics even more viciously and has repeatedly called for america to scrap birth naturalization which is a policy many foreign women abuse. But he has not advocated violence as the solution neither has he politicised America's problems or said they were due to the freed slaves. Like I said, I no get anything to lose or gain from unity or secession, but it is good to pursue major projects like this with clean hands because karma has a way of hitting back

so my thread entered FP.. first time since 2008

new2020:
Be careful calling Igweocha PH if you ever make it there, even Ikwerre will beat that yoruba divisive demon out of you.

Oh it's PH they are calling igweocha! funny guys.. I didn't even know, I blame the government for not publishing war accounts that's why the youths in PH don't know history and their peculiar circumstances

ELTON123:
biafra all the waaay dem de repeat last night news

it ain't news , it's a caller participatory discussion program. people were calling in, and they discussed many issues ranging from Lai Mohammed, the invincibility of Biafra and nnamdi kanu 's arrest. they also encouraged biafrans to dishonour the zoo, hoist flags in their windows and doors

john124:
are you just waking up from sleep? It's a repeat broadcast from 31st october 2015 ;(

oh.. apologies.. I never knew it was a repeat broadcast. when does the live one start?/ why should a propaganda channel even be repeating programmes? And the modern Biafra encompasses the OPA in the south according to KANU, but in the last four hours I've been listening to your radio I've only heard Ibo music and not even one Ibibio or ijaw or ika music, abi these people no sabi sing?

Finally, with the intense name calling and abuse dished out to the zoo this afternoon, I'm imagining the effect if we had an Islamic radio kano broadcasting the same themes to northerners! Then the biafrans would have cried genocide and pogrom and ethnic cleansing. As a Bini man I have nothing to gain or lose from Biafra or Nigeria, I only feel you guys could go about your cause like civilized people.

I. be Bini man oooo... I'm going to abakaliki now.. listening to the beloved radio biafra

The programme anchor just claimed that the time is 10pm now in Biafra land. He also refuted the rumours that radio Biafra has been shut down. Since when did Biafra get their own timezone?

And what state is igweocha in?

the other birds that flewed!!! WOW!
Biafrans are comic

You dey crase ni? You want the biafran agitators to poison us abi the fellas at Islamíc section to...

this is an anonymous forum , organise a party at thy peril

Enahi e dun do.. The biafrans would never leave Nigeria.. Soon they would realise that their properties all over Nigeria are more valuable than the oil in the Niger delta. How much is a barrel of Brent crude this afternoon?? Only rascals and motor park touts agitate for Biafra!

if they break away, the Nigerian government would simply pass a law prohibiting foreigners from owning assets and the wailing would resume, then the ethnic minorities would appeal to the UN for a referendum to free them from the new masters

soulpeppersoup:
Have you ever heard of Arochukwu local government? Two towns I know there have boundary with the Mediterranean sea. So I don't know why uninformed people go online to talk what they don't know.

Many of them think Igbo end with with a few town they know. I don't blame them, I blame the government that has neglected to develop some of these places.

We are talking about the cement factory dangote is going for at isu, but many don't know it is because of the sea route that is attracting him not the lime deposits.

you mean Igbo land has boundary with Mediterranean sea/? wow! chukwu abiama has really blessed us

Obiagu1:
Well the door is not shut on Edo people, even Kanu gave conditions mainly concerning the powers of the Oba of Benin.

Biafra don't want overwhelming influence of monarchs.

please what did Kanu say as regards the benin monarch? im interested

macof:
Well, imagine a fellow believes he has been living a pathetic life for some time, he picks up something and decides to make it more interesting by claiming unimaginable connections to his discovery just to gain publicity and raise his pride as a human being
That's what happens with people claiming Walls of Bini, Eredo are the largest man made structure, built by Yemeni queen etc

Yes it's the one in the picture

that's not Benin moats BTW

The Guinness Book of World Records describes the
walls of Benin City as the world’s second largest
man-made structure after China’s Great Wall, in
terms of length, and the series of earthen ramparts
as the most extensive earthwork in the world.
The Guinness Book of Records carried an entry in
the 1974 edition that described the city as: “The
largest earthworks in the world carried out prior to
the mechanical era.”

macof:
Its not oral traditions it's recent "discoverers"
You know when people need something to make them feel some relevance they just make up senseless stuff

could you shed more light on this? I'm lost

and is that a picture of the moat in your earlier post?

macof:
truth is we all know that the Walls of China is the longest and the Pyramid of Khufu is the Tallest man made structure


But wait o. Eredo is 200km. Some claim Iya was 16,000 km (although much of it has been vandalised) others say 6,500km
It's funny how people label everything "largest man made structure" just for publicity

Someone even said it's four times longer than the walls of China that is over 21,000km

oral tradition must always dey exagerrated.. me I prefer to believe the 4576 miles version
