TONYE001:
Why arrest the man though?

Unless he was arrested for pestering/stalking....even after being told to allow the lady be.

This is the only narrative that'll make sense.

Otherwise, there's no reason to arrest or assault anyone for sleeping with a married man or woman. Na couples make vows, and they should be held responsible if vows are broken.

Adultery is not a criminal case, it's an issue of morality.

Is the bolded not what is clearly spelt out in the OP?

TruthU87:
Why is Israel in a European fencing championship? I thought they were indigenous to the Middle East. They're middle-easterns Only if they want to steal lands.

The middle east is contiguous to both Europe and Asia, which are not separate land masses. Israel have opted to play on the European side, like Turkey, for political and safety reasons.

IyfeNamikaze:
Okay, let me ask you this: When have Igbos ever sought to cooperate with Edos or anybody else to fight common enemies? Of all the southern tribes, you are the most divisive. Don't you know??
The question you should be asking is if the Igbos have ever taken the side of your enemies against you?

APGA is not a regional party, it's a state party. It can't win votes in Abia, Enugu, Ebonyi And Imo state. No dey cap nonsense!

Nobody is dragging anything with you. How is the igbanke embracing their igbo root tantamount to dragging land with Edo abi Benin?
The Ikwere in Rivers have also embraced their ìgbo roots, they're in the ohanézè. We're not dragging land with anybody, it's just that most of you are suffering from inferiority complex

You no get wetin you wan talk. You are the one who said we hate Igbos, and that is why we don't seek to cooperate with you against common enemies. So I asked you, when did you come to us to seek cooperation? When have Edo people ever sided with your enemies? It is on record, in Chinua Achebe's book, that there was a country, despite how one-sided his narrative was, he could not but state that when the Igbos were fleeing back into the East at the onset of the war, Benin was the first point at which they felt safe. Even during the elections, misguided Edo youths still carried Peter Obi 9n their heads. But here you are talking rubbish today because we insist that we won't give up our land. Shame on you.

And you must know that the Edo man can never feel inferior to Igbos or any other tribe. Read your history very well so that you know who is who.

Love the idea. I hope this touches someone.

How can you say you are looking for someone ahead of you in ALL aspects of life - so you don't think you too should help him grow in one or two ways?

MrSly:
The bottom line is that igbanke in Edo is Igbo. Nothing else is being dragged and nothing demand chest beating. It is what it is.

Who said Igbanke is not Igbo? There are Yorubas in Edo, Ijaws too, and numerous tribes. Everyone is welcome.

Eagleways:
go drive them nau

Why should I? They are the ones saying they want to leave, aren't they? They are most welcome to stay and be good boys and girls.

IyfeNamikaze:
Be there and be seeing who's not seeing you, while your real enemies are in the bushes terrorising Both of us.
I wonder when we will finally wake up to our senses in this Southern Nigeria. You're hating on the Igbos that have never raised a hand against you, have never shed your blood, and have never openly declared war upon you and then you turn a blind eye on the very people doing exactly these things. There's not a accurate word in the dictionary to describe this level of stupidity.

I played good ball this morning so I'm in a good mood now. Let me first laugh well

So they told you that once you just shout "HATE" you have won the argument? Get away from here my friend.

Okay, let me ask you this: When have Igbos ever sought to cooperate with Edos or anybody else to fight common enemies? Of all the southern tribes, you are the most divisive. Don't you know??

Which southern tribe has an official regional party like APGA?

Do you know there are Yorubas in Edo? Why are they not dragging our land with us?

Do you know there are Ijaws in Edo? Why are they not dragging our land with us?

Why only you? Only you still dragging Lagos with Yorubas. Still dragging Rivers with Ikwerre. But Igalas along you are not dragging Anambra with you.

So who is the problem? Who is the one with hate?

Emco1:
It really painful to you, when ever the Rivers state came to their senses and and embrace their brothers. You tribalist will still ask them to go back to where they came from that they are not the originally owner of the land

What is this one saying

Elusive001:
Kwara is Fulani because it is under the emirate

Are you lost?

Mrfeel:
Igbos are indigenous to east and west of the Niger river

We see you. We know what you are. You are waating your time.

Mrfeel:
Benin is not bigger than igbankes the igbankes are a clan of the ika's the ika's are a subgroup of the igbos

And Igbos are indigenous to which region? Im just glad you people are revealing your agenda now so that everyone can know where we all stand.

chiagozien:
Oya chase them out.

Nobody is chasing anyone out. But when they are ready to join whoever, they will leave without an inch of Edo soil. You already know this.

Amaggedon:
Like most state around the old eastern and the mid-western region most if not all comprises of multiple ethnic groups edo state is not an exception, there are other ethnic group that was added there for many reasons, but stating that it was because those places were under the old benin empire means you dont have sense, but if you say you are smart then advice the oba of benin to raise his army and invade igbanke since its under benin empire. Because SW states are mostly yoruba makes some of you to think every state must have one ethnic group very stupid reasoning

I suspected from your first post tgat you must be one of all these uneducated types that not loiter around Nairaland. I wont waste further words on you.

Mrfeel:
Benin kingdom is not older than igbankes you people people migrated from ife to meet them there

And then the visitors multiplied while the original settlers stayed so few?

Drinking alcohol first thing in the morning will impair your reasoning.

phorget:
Nobody owns any land, we all migrated to where we are today.

Logically, that should tell you then, that seeking to carve out some part of the land to join another part on the basis of ancestral ownership and historical ties is fraud. No one owns any land as I've just been told.

Amaggedon:
How did Igbake come there as visitors when they were merely caved into edo state like other ethnic groups including the benin people. Because the capital of edo is benin doesnt mean the state belongs to benin people alone. I never believed educated people can as ignorant as what i have been seen people say about thus igbanke issue serioysly.

You are talking absolute nonsense. Before the coming of the British, that entire area was the Benin Empire. Then it was the Midwest. Then it was Bendel. Today you are saying they were carved into Edo, forgetting that it is Delta and Edo that were carved away from each other due to divide and rule politics. Do you think you can rewrite history??

Zulu11zulu:
The people of yeruba land should stay away from what did not concern them the Edo and Bini people know igbanke people are igbo but yeruba will Cary the matter for head like if is their business.

Who are you to speak for Edo people??

Igbankes came as visitors and they are free to go back where they came from.

rickyrex:
Only trying to make obi not to feel cheated. Anyways. Nah so football be.

I'm surprised Mikel truly believes he deserved it. As a Nigerian at the time, I felt hurt but looking back, you can't deny Yaya was in a class of his own. To me, he is the greatest African football of all time.

Babanlagenius:
I just want to know if you can mention one good thing you have benefited so far under this government as a Nigerian.

Did I mention this government or I mentioned Nigeria?

rickleye:
Address the source of the problem . Why are people stealing ? Who is melting them , who is buying . All those area boys know who is buying . Round them up and put pressure not to buy or sell.
Wood will be stolen and can rot .

So commit human rights violations in oder to solve the problem? That is no solution. Try again.

Meanwhile, assuming that you can solve the problem that way, which you obviously can't, it still won't be solved in a day.

So untill then won't we cover our manholes somehow?

femi4:
Don't last cos they got stolen?

Listen to yourself for a sec

So if your quality wrist watch got stolen, you ll settle for inferior ones?

Thieves just want to steal, they careless about quality

Femo, look at how many words you typed but you have no solution to offer. I ask again, Engineer, what is the solution??

ThirdWorldThug:
Those wide Mahogany boards sure have as much market value as iron, thus will likely be attractive to thieves.

No, unlike iron that can be melted and reshped, wood that has already been cut into that very small shape is useless to any carpenter

femi4:
It won't last. You can't compare wood to concrete when it comes to wear n tear

People here amaze me honestly - the metal ones don't last for days because they get stolen - but a low-cost solution that will at least give you a year is "it won't work". So what will work engineer sir?

Babanlagenius:
Is the country not black?

And going around the world to make sure everyone sees it as black and even as blacker than it is, is so that what will happen?

Anyway, that one concerns the two of you. I just want to know if he has ever had something good to say about this country.

LadyExcellency:
Who is begging to be Nigerian? A failed entity. We were forced to belong hence no apology. We have a native homeland in Eastern Niger. Indigenous and free people.

So what you are saying is that running the country down is a deliberate exit strategy?

walozanga:
How?

Training of our elite infantrymen and provision of arms and tech. To date, our elite infantry including military, police and dss are trained by Israelis. The DSS standard issue firearm is also Israeli made.

VinnyBaba:
IgboPhobic goons will be plenty on this thread.

As if IPOB represent Igbo Pple?

So far everyone has mentioned only IPOB... Why are you jittery? It's like you actually want them to go tribal because that's what you enjoy!

Please can anyone share a single time when Peter Obi has made a positive comment about Nigeria? What sort of leader goes to international forums to paint this country black all the time??

udemzyudex:
Until your former messiah sent them packing.

Everything about the way you talk reeks of a lack of education. I won't waste common sense on you.
