I was born in Lagos state and have spent most of my life in the southwest but I am actually Hausa. I Have never been to the south-east or south-south part of Nigeria despite having many friends from the region. I had been to practically every region apart from the SE AND SS.

As the saying goes, experience is the best teacher and nothing prepares you for the unknown as much as the NYSC does. I remember the day i got my Call up letter like it was yesterday. We had all gathered in front of the faculty officers office awaiting our turns to get called in for our Posting letters. Many people came out of the office rejoicing and this gave me a little bit of hope but boy was i wrong. I knew i wasn't going to get what i expected when i noticed the countenance of the officer as he handed the letter to me.As I stared down at my call up letter with the bold words written on it 'A State in the South east', I couldn't help but let the flow of mixed feelings come through. At first i was dazed, then slowly the reality of my situation began to creep in. I could feel my heart shredding into several pieces with every beat. This was probably due to the negative stories (kidnapping, fraud and etc) and pictures I had heard and seen in the media. While others were rejoicing about their states of deployment, I simply walked to a corner to let hot tears that had welled up in my eyes fall freely.

At that moment, Google became my best friend and the Nigerian Map became my Companion. Who knew the southern Province occupied about 1/3 times the size of Nigeria? Before then, i didn’t….lol!. Since desperate times requires desperate measures, lots of things went through my mind with the first being how to change my state of deployment but since i wasn't married, Heavily pregnant or sick & living with a serious health condition, my hopes of changing my state of deployment flew out the window, my fate had been sealed.

I Had my camp in Enugu and was posted to Calabar.[i][/i]
On getting to Enugu state, I found the place to be Dirty and rowdy. The camp was even worse than most of the NYSC camps I had visited in other states (mine included). My roommates were fun and lively. Fortunately for me, 3 of us were from the same department in school, so we kinda had an upper hand in bonding with the others.

After finally completing the registration process at my PPA, I was so uncomfortable and angry. The lodge I was provided was tiny and stuffy,
and at night the mosquitoes came en masse on their power bikes. My first night was dreadful, I couldn’t sleep. Throughout the night, I made a
mental note on getting a new apartment the
next day. The next day I asked around for where I could get an apartment around my PPA. I finally got one and I spent two days buying stuffs and tidying the place up.

In summary, It was a horrible expireInce, everyone there was abrasive and were not polite. They always tried to deceive people. I will never wish that experience on anyone.

was it as dusty as under bridge in Lagos or was it as dirty as ijegun or okoko? See my friend nobody gives a sh!t about you over there, believe me you are nothing to anyone except a kid serving his father land.

Nice

O ji onu.

Doug07034780891:
This worthless fool, stop causing trouble here because when it will start your Abia state will be the target for bashing. All you guys do is to go about looking for trouble where it does not exist. Get the hell outta of here...

I was expecting this.

mightyokwy:
Lmao, my brother I owe no body apology. What I said is the fact. I have been there and I leaved with them for quite number of years.

What you said is no were close to fact. Don't think you are the only person that have traveled to or had contact with ndi ebonyi...you should take note of the saying "Onye na way ya", everyone cannot be loud mouthed, boastful or egocentric.

mightyokwy:
Lolz, you are funny but I can't help it than to say it the way it is. I don't hate them, I still have some of them as my friends.

You make alot of unguided statements... My friend no one is feeling any inferior except your swollen ego.

Kingsley10000:

Abagworo:

LordIsaac:
Mass immorality and moral decadence is one of your belief system?

that depends on your definition of moral decadence.

LordIsaac:
I am ashamed of the so-called christians...your righteousness has not even exceeded that of the Pharisees...as they are even teaching thrm how to conduct themselves. If Christ comes today, will he find faith on the earth? God help us!

My friend You should know that Nigeria is made up of many form of believe so no believe should be favoured above another.

Wetin we go do? Well na only make we just dey manage the kind national embarrassment

Confused protesters.

Ugosample:
Oga, don't be mischievous, deep within you, you know this is true.

I know plenty cases in my village and other places, and real life experiences.

Deep within me me, I only know that what you are saying is mostly lies.

I so much hate the phrase"impeccable source".

MissShakara:
Now am not into tribal bashing which is by the way actually killing Nairaland. I have few things to say; As an Igbo woman and someone very familiar with the Law, this decision by the supreme court is a welcome development!

Many women and children have been dispossessed of their husband's properties because they have female children only. Now am not talking about ancestral land (ana umunna), but properties in the city, lands, houses and even cars, by greedy brothers who feel it is their right to inherit their brothers properties since he left no male heir. Now these helpless women who are led on to believe that it is our 'culture' are left struggling to live their lives in penury with their daughters! This is where this law comes to aid. Now tell me OILSOUP, will you love to see your wife and female children suffer if you have no male child? Who do you think will protect them from your greedy brothers when you die intestate? It is this Law! So I applaud the decision of the Supreme Court in this regard.

Stop spreading lies this is not about nollywood movies, what you said is not true.

wizzakosh:
after selling her lol. Is it possible for a cow seller to com n ask me later what happen to th cow?

who told you she is sold? Just try mal- treating her and see if you wouldn't start telling us how barbaric our culture is. if if she dear complain to her family, they will
1. Always call for their in-laws to know why their daughter is been treated badly.
2. They wouldn't hesitate to pay back her dowry if it continues but will not claim their child.

wizzakosh:
you also inherit your brother's wife o. Get her pregnant as well. taar, I spit on these ppl's lives.

It is not a must to inherit your brother or father's wife. It is most likely done if your brother dies without a son. His wife and brother must be willing to accept to be married (I kuchi nwanyi) so that she can get a son for the late husband. Remember no one will force you to that, it must be the choice of both parties.

omonnakoda:
This is what is meant by the TRIBAL mentality .A people who only lived in hamlets until the white man came and gifted them baby hats. There is no record of any towns in which strangers lived in Igbo land before colonialism(They would have been eaten!) so no surprises . Every thing is UmuAkpu,Umu this and Umu that. That is the mindset

If you know nothing you about my tribe, you should have kept quite and read through the arguments.

pretty16:
A Very greedy mentality. So when she was born in her father's house, she wasn't part of his children abi?
My Igbo tribe, with their greedy sense. . Tomorrow that daughter becomes a force to be reckoned with, and everyone would want to associate with her,? Na so

What do you mean? Even if you are not prominent you remain our child. You are never sold but give to marriage, to whom you will find happiness in. If anything is to happen to our daughter, the husband will always answer for it.

Pavore9:
If she is not willed she has no right to contest. It is you as a brother that out of your own freewill can help her out with something if the need exists. Traditionally, when a woman is out of marriage and comes back home the first son gives her land where she cultivates to sustain herself through her lifetime and the land reverts back to the family upon her demise.

It is how it has been and see no reason why the govt should even go into that.

ArabMopol:
i will never give the lazy husband the privileged to get closer to me... once all the documents are with Me I will hurriedly change, convert and confiscate everything... she will get something but not equal share.... in Igbo land womenwill never inherit native compound unless she chooses to remain unmarried, got pregnant outside wedlock, her children rightly belong to his father, and such children are entitled to inherit their grandpa property if the old man did not have male child

Thank you my brother.

Pavore9:
With this ruling, he better have a will existing at the time of his death so that everything is defined. if there is no will regarding the property acquired outside the ancestral home, before the law the daughter has an option to contest for a share if she feels likes.

Then she shouldn't cry when it turns bloody. To me if my sister is married to another man & a property is not willed to her, she should just leave in peace for the sake of peace. I wouldn't hesitate to kill or get killed to maintain my father's and brothers linage because her linage is with her husband unless she is some way out of marriage.

deliveryboy:
These same lesser (temporal beings as someone referred them) are allowed to bring moneys and other properties from their husbands without qualms. BTW, are they not from the same ancestors the men came from. I am not happy to learn this part of Igbo culture, it is less than slavery over which we easily accuse other races.

Pls Our ladies are not temporary beings they are regard as pride with which we expand and make in laws. If a lady is not married and she is with no child, she must remain in her father's house and will laid to rest there. If she has a child out of wed luck and the child is a girl, she will bear the name the family, be protected and married off as rites demands every other ladies. So our girls are not treated in any way less...

Pavore9:
It is that of those acquired away from the ancestral home. A woman has no share of ancestral land as it passes through sons.

If the father has a son or sons, she has no right for the father's property unless willed to her.

deliveryboy:
You are so pained, has it gotten to that? Your own daughters, it's your type that will consult juju on land matters

I'm just telling the truth. If a girl tries that trust me not even supreme court will save her. Your kindred can forgo your father's bought property but no d inherited land. Heads will roll for it.

orimsamsam:
baba die first without a written will and see if the court won't decide ur case

and watch how the girl dies too. The land of kindred, no woman has right over it. The supreme court only pointed to land bought by the the parents not the kindred land.
