One trophy is coming home this season... this I have seen.

I still see Epl between City and Arsenal.

mostob:
After Arsenal play Porto on March 12th they don't play again until March 31st away to Man City #arsenalfanaticsnews

Ladies and Gentlemen, it is Dubai Time!

Roland17:
Where have you been? Happy to have you back.

On Arteta, make I no type epistle but me and my fellow comrade (Iamoyindamola) are still standing guard. That Porto loss pain me I no go lie and it highlighted some of my concerns. With all of that said, he has been impressive since the return from Dubai.

Sportsweb:
I'm from Owerri too. Ebony language like Izzi, Abakiliki sounds like foreign language to me. Afikpo is fair, you need to clean your ear well to hear it clearly and can understand it as words there sometimes relates to imo and Abia dialects

DissTroy:
The asinine nîtwît is backtracking now and doing a double-speak.

No, you must stand on your faux neocolonial mandate. All tribes are Igbos. All tribes in Nigeria, including the Cameroons and Congos are Igbos.

Heck! The Japanese have a lot of -chi added to their names. Yep! The Japanese too. The Asian Igbos.

Where else? Let me go check.

Screw it! Adam and Eve are Igbos. Take that, Creationists.

liveLongNprospa:
My issue with you is your inability to individualise your beefs.

Izzou, unlimited, obainojazz, Roland17 are all Igbos if I remember and they have not attempted to do this thing you are accusing all Igbos about because of Spy360 and the other guy.


Also Spy360 can you come up with a better claim than just spoken language.
There are places in the middle-belt that speak mostly hausa today but they have no original tribe that spoke hausa.
It just became an acceptable form of communication which they are beginning to regret because the fulani's/hausas are using it to claim that the middle-belt is a part of arewa

BlueRayDick:
lol.

Benue people were never part of any Eastern region. U don't know history and u are laying claim to be an expert at it.

Those people u claim speak Igbo possibly migrated there a long time ago and they settled there. There's a Yoruba community in Delta state(I think they call them Olukumnmi or something like that). They migrated and settled there a long time ago; it doesn't mean they are indigenous to Delta na.

Back to Efik, what exactly are u using to back ur claim up that they were ever Igbo?

Theflint1:


I'm not sure of the complete ethnic profile of Akwa Ibom, but Ibibio doesn't sound like Igbo sha, so what exactly is your reason for claiming Ibibio is Igbo?

A001:
You're so ignorant. Even if I'm not Igbo, I know more about the Igbo spirituality more than you do. Christianity has corrupted the illusion of knowledge you think you've.

Traditionally, Chukwu isn't a title. Chukwu is the chief (pagan) god of the Igbos before the advent of Christianity in that sub-region.

Obasi, the chief god of the Efiks, Ibibios, and Annangs, is distinct from Chukwu, the chief god of the Igbos.

The British slavemasters taught that Chukwu is a title, and Chukwu is the same as Obasi, Yahweh, and Jesus, and you believe so in this day and age.

Lols

Very funny. Abassi isn't the same as Chukwu or Yahweh or Jesus Christ.

How will someone be saying this in the 21st century? Lols.

Just like those mumunis in South western states dey call Olorun Olodumare, the chief pagan god of the Yorubas, the same as Yahweh or Allah.

How will the country develop when most people demonstrate this low of intelligence in this day and age? Really pathetic

So many "dense" people in the country.

DissTroy:
They are extremely notorious for this. Extremely.. I stated it during the last back-and-forths here from Saturday to Sunday.

I stated it during the height of the "No man's land" saga pre and ante general elections. I stated the Igbos always trigger others needlessly then play victims. Always!


Notice how it started with Spy360 then Ihebu joined in and by evening all of them would join in. Predictable aggressive lots who bite first, gaslight then play the victims.

BlueRayDick:
While I don't subscribe to name calling in this discourse, I agree with u that spy is trying to rewrite history that was never written. He does not have any historical data or information to rely on to claim Efiks and other people in the South South and Middle belt are Igbos.

Maybe he has a point that the Igbo speaking parts of Rivers and Delta were originally Igbos but for the other South South states I believe he's just capping.

BlueRayDick:
Speaking a language does not mean anything at all. An Otukpo man will never agree with u his ancestors were Igbo because none of their historical records account for this Igbo origin u are trying to force on them. Igbos may have migrated to different parts of the country, but it doesn't mean they are indigenous to those places.

I find it disturbing that an Igbo person will try to force his history or culture on other people.

DissTroy:
That's not my business. There are Ijaws here. Let them defend themselves. My loyalty is to the Ibibio people and when you wrongly attribute anything to the Ibibio (and Akwa Ibom by extension), I'd respond.

You can try to troll with a thousand emojis to cover you shame and deviate. The point is stop appropriating.

This is already tribal harassment. If this were that era, you know you would be singing "Kumbaya" in a dingy boat by now.

Ihebu4chelsea:
You are sick bro, Ukazi is ukazi. Afang is afang(overated though) Ibibio is not God that created ukazi Leaf. Like i said, Ibibio never reach

A001:
Chukwu, Obasi, Oghene, Fenibeso are distinct entities. And no, they're not titles.

You're merely regurgitating the wrong history and lies taught to you in Sunday schools.

Those beings (pagan gods) were actual people (ancestors of present day humans) that existed in the past eras and were worshipped as one god or the other before the advent of Christianity in those areas.

They're not titles as you were taught in Sunday schools, and they're entities distinct from Yahweh or Jesus Christ.

I don't know why people refuse to apply common sense and learn their history. You're merely repeating the same lies the colonialists put in your head all about to corrupt your history.

Chukwu is not a title. That's the chief god of the Igbos before the advent of Christianity.

The same thing applies to Obasi/Oghene, Fenibeso and the others. They're pagan gods and ancestors of Africans, especially Igbos, Efiks, Ijaws, Ibibios.

They've nothing to do with your imported Yahweh or Jesus Christ that your slavemasters gave you.

How would a person be calling themselves educated in the 21st century and you know next to nothing about the history of your roots (your ancestors)?

Really shameful. Merely repeating the same lies you read in the Bible and Sunday school all about

DissTroy:
You are mád! Imagine a conquered people who were pillaged by all tribes in the Delta estuary, from Ijaws to Itshekiris to Ibibios claiming we are a subset of them.

You fuckiñg couldn't read and write while we were already lettered for decades. Until you were captured and sold off. Even the most famous one, was a captured man - Jaja.

You'd go fill Wikipedia with histories you imagined then come lie. If I didn't insistently state the 1929 Women Riot happened in Akwa Ibom, posting pictures and more, many of you would still be insisting.

Now you want to claim Nsibidi. On Wikipedia you wrote Ibibio and Igbo, next you'd edit it to add only Igbo. Is there an Ekpe cult which is the custodian of Nsibidi in Igbo land? No. How come you own it?

Same way you force Afang soup which has been an Ibibio cuisine for centuries as yours. Then rebranded it as Okasi.

What is wrong with you people?

Stop the forced kinship. We are not interested. Keep your appropriation to yourselves.

DissTroy:
I thought of a long rebuttal but then I thought what's the point of it when you lack basic understanding of geolocation to know the difference between South East and the South South where Akwa Ibom is located, or you are being mischievous.

You lots just like to force yourself on others even when you have been resoundingly told they have no ties to you. This argument was had just last December on this thread with Okpa and all doubts cleared. When you do this then appropriate other people's cultures.

We aren't interested and have no tribal ties to you. Why can't you get this and be on your way? Why force kinship with those who don't want it?

Remember clearly you started this so when and if it goes south, we know those who would gaslight and play the victim card on this thread.

A001:
A simple way to differentiate one ethnic group or tribe from the other is to check their spiritual beliefs or indigenous religion. Based on that test, Efiks are not Igbos because Abassi is the ancestor of the Efiks, who they regard as the chief god, while Chukwu is the ancestor of the Igbos and their chief god.

Abassi and Chukwu are not the same entities.

BlueRayDick:
On what authority are u saying this? which history book are u quoting?

I also saw u mentioned Efik as being Igbo; how? U mean the Efik don't have their own history of how they came into being a group of people distinct from the Igbo's?

A001:
Okay, many people associate the writing system with the Igbos. Even the guy working on the project made mention of the Igbos in many parts of his works, though he never said Nsibidi originated from the ethnic group.

BlueRayDick:
Are u saying their are indigenous Igbo people in Cross River, Akwa Ibom, Benue, Edo and Kogi? Or what exactly are u saying in the bold part of ur statement?

A001:
Okay, I don't know much about una history in that sub-region.

A001:
Okay, you're right. I don't know much about the Ibibio people. Many of us in the Southwest call all the tribes around there Igbo.

I'm more familiar with the Igbo people and their language.

Jogs1900:
You are still crying on top election your candidate lost last year.

Senior man as this regime they favor you, Make you show me the way na

BlueRayDick:
So Canada is broke , America is broke , UK is broke and majority of their countrymen are living below the poverty line abi ?

All I'm saying in my post is that Nigeria is a broke country according to u and the APC government . This is not the time for Nigeria to be emulating those countries who have states with economies bigger than naija's economy .

I remember u are one of the people that said Nigeria has revenue problem . If indeed Nigeria has revenue problem I don't think Yinka and Seyi Tinubu should be traveling to Qatar with their father at the expense of Nigerian tax payers at this period of time when Nigerians are battling economic hardship .

That's the point I was trying to make and that has nothing to do with agenda. It's just common sense
