happney65:
Maybe your place sha and that is a small fraction..About over 90 Percent of tribes in the southeast pay so much on top say them wan marry..

And No,The Guy isnt Igbo..He is Yoruba
90 percent indeed. The real expenses in Igbo marriage are mostly during the main traditional wedding.
You can pay the dowry(it's cheap) and do the traditional marriage later.

You have spoken well bros. The arewa youth leader and his notorious gang should have been arrested to correct the madness of other grps agitating (like IPOB) useless secession hence throwing confusion in the country.

But to be honest, DSS are now confused. This country sef undecided

Arrest northern youths and it triggers violence in the north and then you've helped IPOB with their secession agenda.

Well, whether you are Yoruba or a northerner, that is your call & your own headache. sad Obviously you suffer from a problem of not knowing your true identity. Nobody here cares if you are even from the Niger-Delta. The proportion of Igalas in Anambra state is less than 2% of the entire Igala population. They cannot decide for the bulk of the other Igalas in Kogi and other parts of the middle belt. So you are actually the one fooling yourself, because the Igalas know where they belong. Oh, thank you for finally letting us all know that "Government propaganda wheel,' is your middle name. It suits you to a 'T'. undecided
Nobody is deciding for them. We've said it over and over again. If you don't want to be with Biafra, the door is wide open.
Insignificant minority groups keep making these things a big deal.
Before we continue whatever we're doing, which ethnic minority group are you from? Lets start from there.
If you're an Afonja, Edo, Urhobo, Itsekiri, then I have no business talking about Biafra with you.

They're the one insulting themselves. You come into every Biafra thread with a fake ethnicity and make noise about how you don't want Biafra.
The people who do not want Biafra, know too well it won't be forced on them.
Most of the people making noise and saying they don't want Biafra, are mostly fake people claiming Niger delta or Urhobos/itsekiris which will never even be part of Biafra.
The real ethnic groups that matter in Niger Delta are quiet and watching the drama while it unfolds.

They are not aware of the word Delta. Imo is and part of Abia are in the Delta Region and not all part of SS is in the Delta Region.

Moreover, not all Igbos are in support of Biafra. Not all yorubas are in support of Oduduwa republic. Even not all Northerners are in support of Buhari.

Mujtahida:
Let me try one more time.
I am not saying don't drink. I am saying don't drink in such a way as to disrespect the culture of the people in the North. You might think I am being biassed but that's because I am trying to get you to see things from another angle. If I find an Hausa guy saying things that amounts to disrespect of Igbos I will call him out too.

I see where the problem lies. Bros understand something. Maybe in igboland, culture and religion are two different things but in the Muslim North, culture, religion, politics are all intricately intertwined. You are wrong-Ramadan is both a religious obligation and a cultural norm. You are speaking from your own perspective which is totally out of sync with the way a Muslim in the North will reason. Ask your brothers who have lived in the North.

Multi religious society means that I respect your religion and you respect mine (personally I detest all religions and subscribe to non but human decency behoves me to respect the adherents). This respect is basic and lies at the root of all I have been saying. Respect, understanding, broadmindedness and Peace.

Until you succeed in destroy the 'I'ness in man, the thing that makes him personalise things, own them and call them his, you must continue to deal with the fact that an Hausa man in the North will regard that part of Nigeria as his own and an igboman in the East will regard that part of Nigeria as his own. So do not expect an Hausa man to behave the same way he'd behave in the East as he'd behave in the North. Ditto an Igbo man too. The freedom and even nonchalance with which I behave in my home can never be the same when I am in your home no matter how close we are. It's human nature. For an Hausa man in the EAST to come and tell you guys not to drink your beer would amount to disrespect of the igboman whose culture and religion allows him to drink just as an igboman in the NORTH drinking beer WITHOUT REGARD TO RELIGIOUS NORMS in the North would amount to disrespect of the Hausa Muslims whose religion regards drinking alcohol as not just a taboo but a crime.
I only read one line from the epistle you wrote.
Don't drink in such a way as to disrespect the culture of the people of the north? Wtf! Culture or religion?
This guy is a religious bigot! You talked about maturity and I seriously thought you were, but this line in your epistle proved me wrong.
Look for the meaning of culture and religion, then come back and continue.
You're clueless and a fanatic.

I do hope you see the self-delusion that will be the undoing of the Igbo?

I repeat what I had earlier said "No group in the South except the Igbos want Biafra. The few persons who are non-Igbo Biafran supporters are no more and no less than the Yorubas and Hausas that support Biafra and they do so at a strictly personal level".

SSners want out of the marriage, no doubts. However, don't presume that because they want out that they want to be in Biafra with Igbos as the dominant ethnicity.

Don't also assume that because many SS groups are docile and rather be quiet observers, that they can easily be cajoled to leave a big Nigeria for a smaller Nigeria (Yes! A multiethnic Biafra is only a smaller Nigeria with the Hausa replaced by the Igbo).

Until such a time when agreements are made and interests are shown, you lots should agitate for only an Igboid country. Also avoid making statements that will make it hard for you guys to woo the SS or use their ports should you get your nation.
See lengthy post.

Mujtahida:
Why is it so difficult for people to understand things. So in other words when you have Biafra you will respect their culture there because you are foreigners and they are foreigners to you? As in while you cannot respect (according to you because of the constitution) the culture in the North as Igbo Nigerians, you will respect it as Biafrans in the North of Nigeria when Biafra becomes a reality? Constitution? Don't you have commonsense? This is your logic: Nigerians should not respect the culture of other Nigerians because we are all Nigerians but foreigners should respect the culture of all Nigerians because they are foreigners.

I am shaking my head. No wonder we are in this mess. Please how old are you-no vex-cos I like to interact with matured minds. I am shocked at your logic.
You're the one who's immature and silly. Have you heard about tolerance?
Culture and religion are two different things, but you keep mixing them up.
If an Igbo man takes beer during Ramadan, it's his business not yours.
If taking beer in Dubai is frowned upon, it doesn't mean it should be the same in Nigeria.
Stop acting like someone from the 13th century.
Nigeria is a multireligious country. If I'm taking my beer in a beer parlour or my business place, it shouldn't be anybody's business.
When this modafockers are in the east, most people eat and drink beer, but they don't do a thing. Why?
Ramadan is not a culture. It's a religious law.

Mujtahida:
It's called wisdom, sensitivity, tact, respect. Even in Dubai with its cosmopolitan atmosphere you don't wear your bumshorts around. People have culture which whenever you come into such place you have to just respect it for peace to reign. Recently, the Ipob declared sit at home to commemorate those who died in the Biafran war. What that means is that even if I am not igbo if I was there I'd respect that order out of respect for the dead and the pain and suffering of those mourning their loss. While I could easily say 'well I am not igbo, wetin concern me. I will go around and do my business jare after all the constitution guarantees freedom of movement' I will not be wise to take such a stance. I will be insensitive and foolish.

Please let us always try and look at things not only from our own perspective, our own history and experience which is often too narrow and excludes the other persons'. We are in this mess today because we have failed, even refused to understand each other.

More than anything the human heart craves for understanding. As a human being I might not always agree with you but I can at least try and understand you-Why are you saying what you are saying, what is the cause, what is behind this or that? This are questions I can ask in a bid to understand you. And my understanding of your position can be the beginning of a great working and fruitful relationship. But if I shut you down and say go sit down jare. You will be hurt and that is what we do to ourselves in this country. And everyone is in pain now.
Cheers
What's the point being one?
FYI, Dubai is another country. If I go to Dubai, I respect the laws of their land.
In Nigeria, according to the constitution, I'm free to eat, work and live wherever I want to.
If that right is threatened, then there's no reason for one Nigeria.
This is one of the reasons we're fighting for secession.
If we're Biafrans, and some of us choose to live in the north, they will respect the laws or culture in full, since they're no longer citizens.

Many in this forum keep making this same statement and it's getting Stale.
Whether you like it or not, some of the people in South South, especially Igbos there will join their brothers.
Staying back in Nigeria or South South will turn them to minority.

As for all this mofos drawing undue attention by wanting to associate themselves with us pls hear this once n for all .we do not want you .
Urhobos,itshekiri Edo middle belt are not part of biaafra.
Biafra consist if the land from the river Niger to the bight of Biafra .
Bros, some people in the middle belt want to join Biafra.
Forget about this wheel of propaganda spinning since IPOB came into the limelight.
They said no South South state is part of Biafra before, but after the sit-at-home observed in Rivers and some parts of Delta, they realised the igbos won't leave their brothers and join the rest of Nigerians they have nothing in common.
We're making progress. Leave the warriors to do what they're paid for.

BIAFRA.......D.O.A

The reality is that Delta state as a whole (maybe Asaba not included) has nothing to do with Biafra. You can not be shouting marginalization / minority in Nigeria yet you want to force other smaller ethnic groups into Biafra so you can be president and marginalize them.

5 south-east states are enough to form a country, so I advise IPOB and their likes to count on their own states for Biafra and not encroach on another man's land / right.

Funny enough only one set of people from a country is having problems with every other tribe/ethnic group in the same country.... Then the problem is not Nigeria but the set of people who have seen themselves as enemies to every other tribe / ethnic group.

Ibo quarreling Hausa / Fulanies
Ibo against Yorubas
Ibo against Urhobos
Ibo against Itshekiri
Ibo against Ijaw
Ibo quarreling with Ukwanis
Ibo against Isoko
Ibo against Rivers people
Ibo against Binis
Ibo agains middle belts

infact,
Ibo against Rochas Okorocha
Ibo against C Ngige
Ibo against Obama
Ibo against Queen of England
Ibo against UN
Ibo against UK

SO NAIRALANDERS, WHO DO YOU THINK IS THE PROBLEM, NIGERIA OR IPOBs?
Urhobos and itsekiris have nothing in common with the igbos, so I don't understand this wailing.
