But if that's the best picture you can get I still say that guy looks like he is recieving deliverance in a prayer house.

I never predicted up to 3 pages for this thread, nor the number of twists and turns. Even after explaining the essence of Igbo Day some people still chose to argue blindly. . .

I just have a feeling that Tottenham aren't that great when it comes to a club like Arsenal.[/color][/quote]You said the same thing at the same wrong time against Bolton F.C. If you don't watch matches, it's ok. But if you don't read previous posts before posting, then there's a problem. Anywayz, my boys gave me some smooth sleep last nite.

There is sense in what Kalu is saying, but his words lack weight, power, authority or even conviction. I don't like the phrase "living in the presidential villa". Sounds childish.

Asa is not Ngwa.

Are you from Asa? Because they always say they are not Ngwa but the language says it all. So, where is Asa?

You guys should learn to argue without exchanging foul and insultive words.

Translation : I don't have reasonable answers to the questions you asked . . . I get it. You are not the first to try countering questions asked with kindergarten fluff, you know?

Holy things to holy people, reasonable answers to reasonable 'questions'.

Kobojunkie:
ROFLMAO!! sorry dude, I am master when it comes to offering up CONDESCENDING retorts

Clap for yourself.

Kobojunkie:
Now please answer the questions asked

Sorry but your 'questions' don't appear like they're hungry for answers. They're more of statements than questions, despite the question marks they end with

[quote author=~Bluetooth link=topic=516428.msg6794532#msg6794532 date=1285085328]Thanks jare. . . .you just cleared my doubt.[/quote]Thanks for chosing to understand.

Kobojunkie:
Every other ethnic group can make the same claim, even right there in Delta state.  So, a "Special holiday" is now needed to iron out economic, human and political issues for each and every ethnic/culture out there? Since we have about 250 of them in Nigeria. How many days will we have left to actually tackle that which pertains to all, regardless of ethnicity?
WOW . . . how many days left in the year to actually tackle general issues if we all choose to put aside a "Special day" for cultures? Would this also mean that only on Ibo day can Ibos actually make their concerns in these states known then? If I am being brutal to my neigbor for being Ibo, what should I tell him? "Shut up until Ibo day?"

lol

It is clear that you've built a fortress of ignorance over yourself which no amount of intellectual armament can dismantle. Facetiousness is actually different from intelligence. Enjoy your world.

Is that some kind of indepedence celebration or what ?[/quote]I don't know if you're asking this from genuine interest or just for the fun of it. However, we Igbo people are proud of our roots and concerned for our future. On Igbo Day, the Igbo of Anioma would gather and thank God for bringing them thus far, the history of the Igbo in general and Anioma in particular would be told. Economic, human and political issues would be identified and ironed out, disputes would be settled, prominent sons and daughters would be honoured, issues bothering on the general development of the people would be touched, etc. The smaller Igbo communities celebrate this, too. The difference is they change the 'Igbo' with the names of their respective communities. E.g, I am from Atta community in Imo State and we celebrate Atta Day. Añara, a community in Mbano, celebrates Añara Day every 26th December, and so on, and on. Your people should have something similar.

^If possible, advice him so. People are leaving the city in droves and the quietness that pervades everywhere reminds me of Yuletide, when everybody's gone.

^It's a random thing. When the Timber market was raided two weeks ago, majority of the victims were ordinary struggling guys without shops of their own.

What does that mean?[/quote][quote author=~Bluetooth link=topic=517254.msg6792185#msg6792185 date=1285064402]why ?[/quote]Don't be offended if that sounded unpatriotic, but that is my personal opinion. Sometimes my heart skips a beat when I see the Nigerian flag, especially among flags of other countries. I don't really know why but that's the truth. I think the whole word snickers at us.

chiozor:
@slap1
just like Rivers have Emergency Call-112 which connects distress call to the Police Room, is there none for Abia State.
by the way, what was the justification of promoting the AIG in Abia to IGP,

There is nothing like that in Aba. I've even pondered contacting the Rivers State Force coz one of the camps is in Etchie, Rivers State.

I think we shouldn't have a flag at all.

chiozor:
@slap1
what about putting anoyomous call to IGP detailing some of these things to him, I understand that perpetrators of these crime walk freely in Aba and the village where they are is popularly known, just thinking aloud

I'd love to, but I don't have his number or his e-mail addy, if not I'd have gotten a new SIM card and a new e-mail addy for that purpose. The boys walk freely on the streets. My dad was telling me this morning before he left that they drove into Ariaria the day they brought the threat letter. He said he SAW them, they came in a Toyota Hilux.

[quote author=~Bluetooth link=topic=517107.msg6791429#msg6791429 date=1285055759]I remembered those days when the front of our exercise books used to have inscription like '' scholars,exercise books and many other motivational captions'' but these days,what you see are pictures of paloma and diego,terry G,Timaya,Aki and paw-paw,Drogba,Rooney etc.how would these children learn when they are surrounded by bad influence.[/quote]Ya got a point there. The only un-academic picture on my exercise book in those days was a dull picture of a man/woman taking a high jump, with the inscription OLYMPICS written above.

I think this prophet's a bit different. He has pleaded for prayers for the Prez. The other ones will tell you it MUST happen.

No, an Ijaw ex-militant, lol. NOTHING will happen to GEJ.

Odunnu:
Its a natural law,or are you reminding him?
You need to stay away frm Ariaria until ths whole thng stops

My main fear is for my dad who conducts his business in Ariaria, I hardly go to the place. This morning, before he left I was telling him of the development, telling him to run if need. I got the anticipated answer: "Where are you running to? If God be for us. . ." I wish him divine protection. Thanks for your concern.

I wrote only WAEC in my time, no money for NECO. But I passed, thank God.

Dr. Uche's body was still lying on the road as at yesterday. The amount was N3mil, not N30 million. Tragic!

my best friend is getting married in november in owerri . . .

i am scared as sheet for myself and for him as well . the guy is a doctor in the uk and i can just see some malcontent in his wife's extended family setting a trap for the 'big man and his friends'

fked up

I wouldn't be talking shyt if I tell you Owerri is the most peaceful state in Nigeria. Don't mind these clueless internet security pundits, come to Owerri, my state's capital, and you'd be amazed at the hospitality of the people.

MaziUche0:
Any news about Umuahia? How is the security in that city?

Umuahia is the direct opposite of Aba. It is calm, peaceful and clean, as usual.

MaziUche0:
Nonsense. Do not bother me with your sly remarks. This is in Ngwaland. The Ngwa need to take responsibility of there bad elements. Other Igbo clans cannot do anything about this.

Like you, I believe it's time we called a spade what it is -- a spade!

I don't know why pple keep taking panadol for anoda's headache. Everybody hates Igbo people, yet to leave them alone na war!

After parting with a hard N1million, my friend's dad was allowed to go yesterday. He was also a victim of the mass kidnapping that took place two weeks ago. When we heard of his release, we went to see him and he narrated his ordeal to us. ** The camp where they were kept was situated at Asa village in interior Ngwa community, also in Aba. There were around 5 camps. He was able to tell because orders were shouted now and then to go bring someone from camp this or that, that his relatives have paid. These camps were previously residential buildings, but the owners have fled for their lives long ago. For food, they only ate enough to keep the worms at bay. Every victim has a ransom of N1m tied to him, it doesn't matter if you're worth it or not. No. Although they were blindfolded, the things he heard could make a nightmare for 50 people. If you try to remove the blindfold, you get a shot in the leg straight away. If you bargain poorly, you get up to thirty minutes beating. A popular steel magnate, Prince C.C. Infor Plc, is currently going through rounds of beating for asking to pay N500,000. They're about to retain a graduate of medicine who was kidnapped doing menial job in the Timber market, since he can't pay up. They only started kidnapping women because they won't stop gossiping. If the woman is young, they gang-r@p£ her and set her free. If aged, she gets the day light beaten out of her. Whenever money comes in there is a sporadic shots of celebration for about 30 minutes. . .I can't finish the whole story once but let me add this warning: They still have unfinished business at the Timber market. After that comes the big one -- Ariaria International Market! If you've been to that market before, you'll know what the casualty figure is going to be like. As for the governor of Abia State, I can only say: you shall reap whatever you sow.

Abagworo:
Aba has always been this way.The truth is that government and the media does not give sincere information.I once posted that more than 18000 people were killed in Aba during the bakassi era of early 2000s and someone refuted it.I also posted that there was an average of 5 kidnappings a day but I lack reference because the media is being paid by govt to cover things up.10 policemen were shot last friday but I'm yet to see it on any news media.I also have info that a market was raided and more than 20 people kidnapped recently.Abia people should expel their Governor if they really want things to normalize in that state.

I posted that here. It happened 2 fridays ago at the Timber and Allied Products Market. I KNOW at least three people that fell victim. One only came back yesterday evening and reeled out his tales of horror. I couldn't have my dinner out of fear and loss of appetite. The man and his entire family are leaving Aba today, leaving everything they own behind. . .
