"He said the Igbo are now adopting the good aspect of the Yoruba culture among them is the inclusion of the female children in the sharing of their father’s properties."
.....I see nothing wrong in Igbo men including their daughters in the sharing of properties that is outside their ancestral home.

The plots of land in Ojota we bought way back in the 70's, was from the share the Yoruba woman inherited from her father.

igbodefender:
Have you seen the membership of the dudes that issued this statement? Like IPOB, they are allover the world. Agitators worldwide. Their membership spans USA, UK, France, Spain, Finland, Netherland, Ireland, India, Ghana, Mali, Dubai, Pakistan, Germany, Switzerland, South Africa, Russia, Australia, Denmark, Japan, Italy, Russia, Ukraine, Sweden and Canada. Any attempt to actualise genocide on October 1 will lead to worldwide protests by the Igbo and the world and ICC will take notice and act unlike in 1966. Word is enough for the wise. Let ni one do anything that will make them rellocate to Hague jail.

UNITY SUMMIT FOR YORUBA , AFENIFERE HOLDS Thursday in IBADAN

"The meeting is aimed at uniting the mainstream Yoruba people. This task will be achieved greatly if the two Afenifere groups are united. I think the region is coming to realize that they either stand in unity or fall in disunity” Dr Mobolaji Ojo, an official of O’odua National Coalition (ONAC) who is privy to the summit said.

He hinted that the Yoruba leaders expected at the summit will be drawn from Afenifere and the splinter group, Afenifere Renewal Group (ARG). Prominent leaders expected at the summit are chief Olanihun Ajayi, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, Hon Wale Osun, General Alani Akinrinade, Mr Ayo Afolabi, Senator Babafemi Ojudu, Senator Sola Adeyeye and the governors of the six southwest states. The Itsekiri, will be represented by Chief (Mrs) Rita Lori Ogbebor, Chief Fred Agbeyegbe and Dr Lucky Akaruse..

Sending them to jail isn't gonna help these lot, as they have made crime (easy money) their speciality. Only a bullet to the back of the head would help.

jagugu88li:
You can't expect a catholic to defend his/her religion. They simply can't because deep down, they fear the truth. So my dear, simply let them be. Otherwise you risk losing your patience trying to explain.

The reason they wont hear word is because they are drunk...........the charismatic sounds, nice chapels, well dressed pedophiles called fathers. I said earlier on, even if you where to ask them how much they know about these silly knights they talk of........nothing. Free them, their father Pharoah had a hard heart too so, what do you expect from his followers

Its a beautiful thing for couples to worship with thesame believes and practices this may be difficult for u to understand.
You only love what you understand, admire and like. Your assumptions are free to run wild you will curb it as you grow older. Peace!

Sprumbabafather:
Where are the "We South South" crew?

Batundra, frathermathy, abagworo, olaadeebo, Sanchez01, come in here

madgoat:
This is absolute nonsense. From your write up its so obvious you were a luke-warm Catholic and never really had good understanding of Catholic teachings/dogma. You obviously never understood PURGATORY for you to have written such rubbish about the Catholic church not teaching rapture and saying its purgatory. Up till now you still dont even understand purgatory for u to have made such comments above. Anyway i leave you with your ignorance and your new found 'light'. But a word of advice: dont allow ignorance and lack of knowledge becloud your senses.

Ishilove:
*permission* So I need permission from my church to marry a Christian? Smh

Missonas:
Your peoples interpretation of our doctrines and practices is worrisome. Look at what is happening in Ahiara. Im a catholic. My sisters married non catholics in the catholic church that are presently not practicing. Nobody is disturbing anybodys right to worship. My parents are not being threatened unnecessarily.

You did no wrong sis! Its even in the bible. Im just sad that teaching ur hubby about our doctrine or even converting him nw will be difficult with all hes seeing.Keep praying for your parents. Let another priest be aware of whats going on. Your aunty should remember she also has children. I detest hypocrites! God will definitely intervene. Dont loose faith!

Biafra will be landlocked if the Niger Delta does not follow them
They are desperate to have Niger Delta for two main rwasons:
1. Access to sea and international trade.
2.Access to crude oil and hence FX
That's why I believe there won't be Biafra without Niger Delta, and it's obvious why the Ibos are desperate to annex ND.
The other issue my Ibo brothers should know is that the present land area can not take their population, South East is almost fully built up and land locked .

intruxive:
Lol, jokes on you. Is the same people celebrating a second reading on south east development....... biko please follow up on the news, I mean the real news o, not what u hear on radio biafra. Non of ur reps is interested in leaving nigeria guy, just kanu and the rest of the broke unsuccessful lots of you remaining in the east

The whole Nigeria will Vote indeed.
people who pick up everything that will suit them or serve their paranoid mind and swallow it as the truth without making any research.

3. What happens if Nigerians vote yes? If a country votes yes, they’re essentially voting in support of some sort of change. If the independence vote prevailed in Scotland, complex negotiations would have taken place which could have meant changes to Scotland’s currency and economy, healthcare and pensions. However, referendum is sometimes met with opposition. If Nigerians do vote yes to letting Biafra go, it might likely lead to upheaval and unrest and in the worst case scenario, another civil war.

Eligibility
The participation process does not have an official electorate. The vote has been called by the Catalan government for people who are at least 16 years of age on 9 November 2014 and who meet one of the following criteria

Spanish citizens whose national identity card states they are resident in Catalonia;
Spanish citizens who live outside of Spain and are registered as "Catalans abroad" or "Spaniards abroad" linked to a Catalan municipality;
all non-Spanish citizens who can prove they are residents in Catalonia.
Catalan people who are resident in other Spanish regions, and Spanish citizens who live in Catalonia but are not resident there, cannot vote.

Estimates of the number of people eligible to vote range between 5.4 million and 6.2 million.

Over the past six months, another word apart from restructuring that has kept popping up in the Nigerian media, is the word 'referendum'.

About six months ago, NAIJ.com reported that the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) movement called on its members to prepare for a referendum to the freedom of Biafra.

In a statement by the spokesperson of the IPOB, Powerful Emma, the group said it is working effortlessly to restore its long lost freedom and political independence without violence.

“We Biafrans in pursuit our inalienable, irreducible and God given right to restore our stolen sovereignty do hereby state that we do not require the permission of the Nigerian State or her government officials to grant us our natural freedoms,” IPOB said.

Will the referendum affect only IPOB and others agitating for Biafra? No. It is therefore imperative, that every Nigerian knows the following facts about what calling for a referendum means:

1. What is a referendum? A referendum is a general vote where citizens of a nation are asked to make a decision on a specific question. In many countries referendums are held only to make a change to the constitution, or to an existing law. In others, any individual of voting age can initiate a popular vote. Nations, states, provinces, cities or villages all have their own referendums, and the rules vary from place to place, along with the criteria for success. In most cases, referendums ask a single yes or no question. On September 18, the Scottish referendum asked the electorate "Should Scotland be an independent country?” and all residents over the age of 16 were able to vote.

2. Biafra Going by the above definition, if the Biafra referendum is to hold, the question will be: 'Should Biafra be an independent country?' and every Nigerian of voting age will be able to vote 'Yes' or 'No'.

3. What happens if Nigerians vote yes? If a country votes yes, they’re essentially voting in support of some sort of change. If the independence vote prevailed in Scotland, complex negotiations would have taken place which could have meant changes to Scotland’s currency and economy, healthcare and pensions. However, referendum is sometimes met with opposition. If Nigerians do vote yes to letting Biafra go, it might likely lead to upheaval and unrest and in the worst case scenario, another civil war.

4. Who can initiate a referendum? In most countries a referendum can only be initiated by the parliament, but some have provisions for citizens to call a ballot, too. In Switzerland a referendum can be called by any individual who collects 50,000 signatures in support of challenging an existing law. The Swiss also have popular votes, which can be set in motion by anyone who collects 100,000 signatures to initiate constitutional change. However, the Nigerian constitution has no express provision on referendum despite series of amendments, thus until the constitution is further amended to make provision for referendum, the 1999 constitution of Nigeria being the supreme law of the land has no window or room for referendum.

5. Amending the constitution: Since the only possible move is amending the constitution and the National Assembly has the power to review and amend it, then those who want a referendum have to follow the process of constitutional amendment by getting senators to propose a constitution amendment bill.

“Already, extreme utterances and actions by some key elements in the agitation for Biafra are taking tolls on our goodwill, friendship, and the sympathy we enjoy. Insults hurled at religious and political leaders of other regions are not helping us, politically.

“South-East’s political future should therefore be put in context of its economic interest and survival. The Igbo have larger chunk of their investments outside the South East. Our people have invested heavily in every nook and cranny of Nigeria. They are into trading. Imagine a situation where a Republic of Biafra would have to depend on Nigerian passports to travel out.

“Importantly, as I mentioned earlier, we are not certain that the South-South will go with the Biafra idea. And in the event that they do not, what are our options for economic survival? Flowing from this, what guarantee do we have for international support if the main oil bearing region pulls out, knowing that no nation is a Santa Claus?
