lol
This is actually funny because you don't know that Anambra and Agbor were colonies of the Benin. No kingdom in the whole of West West Africa come close to the old Benin kingdom. even Britain couldn't do anything to it on their own. You are talking about the only kingdom that stood firm even the scramble of west Africa by the Europeans lol. Igbo never had a powerful kingdom or empire

Anambra were never colonies to Bini kingdom, stop contradicting yourself. What is called Colonialism? Okay, they were colonials and couldn't even influence their language or lifestyle.

Why didn't Anambra people become subjugated and called themselves Bini.

Anambra influenced Bini just the same way Bini influenced them. And come to think of it, do you think of the Oba would be satisfied with just that kingdom, he'll be looking forward to expand even the whole of Africa if he had the power.

So your judgement is not true :-

jeff1607:
I think I would end this here, plz ask during the time of warring states the east as you know didn't have all these you mentioned, they only believed in the strength of the arm(you should understand this if you are into history)

Then again ask why they are called warrant chiefs not kings, trade was kolanug,gin and spices nuts etc. Know this and know peace, no one is greater than the other, it's just history nothing more.

I didn't say that, munchkin...I didn't say anyone is greater than the other, for me I hate superiority or trying to claim absolute power over somebody.

What you stated here is post-colonial era, I'm talking of pre everything. What happened before this rift in the south. That's where I'm putting argument on.

jeff1607:
The east was like a no man's land with no heads, hence no true king in the east, before a king puts his neck on the line for a territory the land must have resources needed, just as the west was like a trade zone, they captured people who ventured into their own territory, you can't go into full war with a land with no true king. Just like the itsekiri lay claim to lands surrounded by water or if water is nearby

That's not true, the east had resources, dear. The palm oil trade was common those times, and it was high value, the rubber trade too, reddening clay creams (beauty products), pottery works, the rafia trade, most were from the east. Why do you think Igbo's are more accustomed to trade, and please don't tell me that nosense of Lebanese coming to take over Nigerian, and all that crap .

That said, the only reason the Bini had no dealings with the east, because it knew that one threat to its communities meant a threat to them all. So the Oba or Ogiso (whatever the title is) used diplomacy when coming forward to ask.

If it used war, then you'll see all Igbo people being United to fight against him. Like the Arochukwu war with the British and the rest. That's why the Oba was smart enough to stay on his side, and would only chip in, if there were wars in a community, like the Ekiti wars, and all.

It was all strategy at that time. And yes, our ancestors knew what was strategy, it wasn't gotten from Romans.

UDUJ:
Are you serious? That's interesting

Yes dear, we were all one, just like present day nations, sharing something together, we traded, we had a supreme court, we had tourism areas, we had places which made us integrate culturally and emotionally.

But when Nigeria came the brainwash started, and we've forgotten who and where we came from, or our past relationship.

People fighting for rubbish here is funny to me. Trying to claim who is superior to who, and this is the same tactics the politicians use to win their elections, and we end up saying 'this person is bad and that is bad' when the politicians or those in power are using the tactics we are freely given them.

Nigerians are not ready for the real change. ... We are still in the stone age, trying to find why we are here?

UDUJ:
Absolute balderdash

It's true, before Nigeria become present, most the South had some form of powerful relationship. How would you know when you didn't exist, and when they brainwashed your great grandparents in the civil war.
I know because I've seen it, and not through books.

iSlayer:
Lolllll. Problem for any yeye tribe that claims Igbo people from now on.

Doesn't the writing signify he isn't Igbo, but someone that wants to shake table.

If you studied rhetorics and logical reasoning in GSS you will know.

jeff1607:
I thought this was already known by everyone. The binis loved wars and those slaves were spoils of war, some were hired mercenaries for other tribes

But what baffles me is why the Bini and is power refused to subdue the Igbo lands, as it claimed to be powerful. It doesn't make sense ooo ...I guess the Oba or Ogiso was scared of the east.

One thing that surprises me is if Japan, or all this powerful countries weren't known nobody would claim to have anything to do with them...funny!!! But let an unknown or known tribe or nation get developed all the world would rush to be linked with them.

Funny

... Japan oooo

GOD bless u bro..not some mofos spraying money on girls inside pool for self aggrandizement....in the name of burial.

Please be a sane man. Why are you acting like a child that needs his diapers changed.

Jerryherd:
Linda ikeji should also swallow her pride and go and marry... Male child needs a father figure and a masculine role model

Who told you that nosense. Marriage isn't by force, if you love it do it, if you don't don't do it. So getting married and giving birth to children is your only purpose in life.

This mindset of yours is the cause of many broken homes. As for me, I'll have my children, but to marry a man, it's a NO for me.

Don’t Give Your Parents “A Talk Of The Town Burial”. Give Them “A Talk Of The Town Life” – Reno

The former aide to former President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri has condemned lavish burial ceremony, WonderTV Media reports.

In a video he posted on social media, he applauded Muslims for their modest way of life.

Reno stated that one of the wealthiest men on earth King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia was buried as a simple man in an unmarked grave. He listed other great men, some from the Bible who were also buried in a simple way.

The video came one hour after he made a post on his Instagram page advising children to work hard, make money legitimately and take good care of their parents when they are alive.

His post reads;

https://.com/dont-give-your-parents-a-talk-of-the-town-burial-give-them-a-talk-of-the-town-life-reno/

Funny enough, you people misunderstand Reno. He was only using Cubana as a reference, especially for people who don't know anything, so they don't look ahead of giving their moms burial instead of giving her a sweet life. As people have seen Cubana now, they'll start looking forward to do the same for their parents

Zeal0000007:
Guys I need your help here, me and my gal have been together for 6 yrs now, I was convinced that she's the one for me, so I decided to engage her late last year, at least to show that her position in my life is not taken for granted , we have really been through hell for each other even when there was nothing she was there for me, but thank God today I'm working now.

Now for the past 2 yrs, It looks as if I have been struggling to keep her, cos we have been cohabiting since I came back from nysc. Since I came back over two yrs now she has been mishaving , she locks her phone constantly, something she never did before, even if its opened the apps are lock only her can open it, if complain abt that she will respond like why will I touch her phone, asking me who does that, to touch a woman's phone even to go to social media, and she has being subjecting me to that because I don't trust her, when we are about to sleep she put her phone on flight mode, and put it under her pillow and put her head on top. Her phone is constantly on silent mode during day time so if it rings she will determind whom to pick so I won't hear and know. We can't watch movie together as partners perhaps she afraid of who will call next ,because she knows I will give her hit.

If I manage to pick up her call she will be shivering,
We have had alot of issues because of her giving in to distractions , I'm tired of talking , I don beat her tire my hand don bend. I have told her if u don't want me again and you have seen somewhere better , open up and tell me instead of cheating that will be honorable thing to do. I don tire for this gal, if I drive her away she has no where to go. The school she's going I'm the one supporting her, her family is not giving her enough support because the don't believing in education all the know is business, and I'm the only one bearing her load and i'm not doing that because i want to marry her, i'm doing it because she needs help and she is my lover.
She doesn't want to loose me because we have really suffered together so she want to keep me as potential husband and still be playing games outside , what crime did I do to go for service so I can come back and make life better for us, cos that was when she got spoilt. I deflowered her and thats not how I left her.

I have resolved chasing her away, right now I'm in offshore , I never trusted her while I was on land is it now that I'm offshore I will trust her?

Maybe she has guilty pleasures she covering

I've been in Nairaland just recently, and I would said that the the toxicity small dick men or holy women throw on men who have it endowed is totally disgusting. They were not made for you, so please take your small dick and holy attitude and leave our endowed men alone. Christ.

What you don't like, some girls like it, especially BBW like us. So please, stop making them feel worthless because they have something they are proud of.

haha most popular Igbo women in government a Yoruba man gave them the chance. If not for Obasanjo who would have known Okonjo Iweala or Dora Akinluyi or Ezekwesili?? Thank God Chimanada adichie ran away to the USA and left Igbo land, by now she would have been one of the ashewo pickers at Oba serving men as a slave. Stupid people

it is advisable to level down your silliness. A Yoruba man!!! What happened to the Yoruba women that needed it most.

Who ever you are. Yoruba and Igbos love each other stop dreaming to seperate them. It won't work

Tonto Dikeh has compared an old photo of her body to a more recent one after undergoing cosmetic surgery.

The actress, who was way slimmer in her old photo, says she hopes the difference in both photos answers the questions relating to why she went under the knife.

She what she wrote below.

She's gorgeous, the goddess, before or after. She's still a goddess. . I love people who enjoy life without society laws. Be free...

Landscaping will only direct the flow of water. Consider a situation where the whole place is flooded with rain water

Yes dear, I don't mean now, I mean in the future, the government should prepare for it. And know how water would be directed back to the sea when flood or raining season arrives.

micronut:
Offa Grammar School is one of the old great schools in Kwara State Nigeria and has produced lots of graduates that have occupied many fields of human endeavours. There are tons in the Academics as Professors, some in Judiciary as Judges, many in Business, Politics among others.

It is in the spirit of giving back and remembering a great citadel of knowledge of a tree that had produced many fruits and seeds that the old students went back to reunite by taking out a day to be a student again, which is a great message to the current pupils that there is always life after school.

The Old Students converged at the School Assembly ground to join present students to reminisces the old memories.

They are 1986 set and many of them are in their 50's and it's obvious as many can no longer remember the old school songs again.

Do I blame them? I left High School 18yrs ago and I doubt if I can remember my school anthem correctly again. Smiles .

Can you still remember many of your high school assembly songs?


Watch them trying to conduct themselves in this video here. Very funny!

I can't do this thing o, if we finish school that's it. I can only come when I'm with my limousine and bodyguard and ready to do something for the school. But it's good.

gasparpisciotta:
Halleluyah!!!! No lives was lost

Note: Lagos is an average of 25m above sea level, while places like Taraba is about 1,000m above sea level.

Don’t blame Lagos Govt for flooding, Mother Nature is at work.

Landscape architects can help alleviate the problem. half of Lagos is marsh or wetland, nature will act if she wants to act and no-one can stop her. The only thing is human beings need someone to reduce the issue.

elmodee7:
Its good that you have now confirm to the whole world that you have been truly brainwashed. Brainwashed into justifying the unjustifiable killings of inocent police and army army personals by so called ESN terrorists. It's a pity . U can equally pay the supreme price for your so call supreme god king. I pity the inocent souls that have died in vain for a pipe dream. Thanks God your coward has finally been captured and believe it or not nothing will happen if he dies or is eventually jailed for life. Madzi cownu has scammed you. Listen to the confessions of your fellow ESN terrorists .

Who confirmed, read my statement dear, and know what I am talking about.


I mean everything is based on credulity, so adding it as your judgement or phrase is highly incorrect.

You are also brainwashed too. Your parents are brainwashed too (and I'm not insulting them)

How do they know you're their child, oh, let me see, the doctor came to tell them you have a son, but how does she know. That's brainwash.
Someone could come to tell her that this is not your son, and she wouldn't believe it; that's brainwash.

elmodee7:
Na dem. Brainwashed gullible pig

Who isn't brainwashed in Nigeria or the world, do you know that the science you hold so dear is also a form of credulity.

Science would say this is this one day and tommorow they change it. Do you know it isn't Nine solar planets we have now, but eight, but you still believe it's nine; is that not brainwash?

My dear, you have no basis. Tribes is a form of brainwash, government is a form of brainwash, and everything here on earth that seems ethereal is a form of brainwash, the only thing that's true is I am, that's God.


So dear, in life we need a level of credulity to expand, if not we would be stagnant.

For Kanu, he has giving a level of support to a race that couldn't take the devastating contraption called Nigeria, and he's finding ways to let the people go. Now, how would you call that brainwash?

And I love the aspect you called me pig, a pig is a determined animal, that guns for what it wants and doesn't look back; that's one of its actions, so it's commendable.

But don't you think it's better to be a pig than a chicken?

Ovis1302:
So if I fired up my imagination that the fire won't hurt me and I joined them to do the fire dance, I won't be rushed to Central Hospital Warri?

If you have the slightest believe that it would hurt you, it would burn you, dear.

You have to have a thorough belief that the fire can't burn you, you and the fire are one, and you won't have a problem.

Is the same way for people, who's house are burning, but they come out unhurt, most of them believe the fire can't hurt them because God or something is protecting them and it works for them, nothing hurts them.

Please, doesn't South Africa have police or something to stop this level of pettiness.

Wickedfact:
[s][/s]

Don't defend foolishness, Kanu was foolish. You had a good cause but due to several wrong judgments and messianic complex, he was caught cheaply. If he stayed in any G8 Nation, he would NEVER have been touched, but he went to Kenya. Kenya that the economy of Lagos is bigger than.

He wanted to be free...He is smart, it even happens to us, if you hide for so long, you'll give up and want to show yourself. You can't be a prisoner for someone for long.
My love, Kanu is a man, but acts with tactics and most African and foreign lands support him.

Why can't we manufacture these aircraft ourselves. Why do we need other countries help. This is why Nigeria government love the most industrious tribe in the country, but they won't say it, but want to make Fulani land by force before they encourage the people.

And, please, I'm a Ghanaian lady, ain't being tribalistic in any way, just speaking fact.

Ojiofor:
Supreme Leader wey dey travel upandan without PAs or bodyguard and this is someone that claim to have over 2 million men under his command and allowed himself to be picked up without resistance like a little rat and the most appalling is that he was kidnapped for over a week without his noisy group knowing about it.

That's because he isn't scared. He was sure and wanted this, he wanted to be free to roam the world as he wish and refuse to make the Nigerian Government his God, by locking him in one place and threatening him

Only cowards hide In what is called, duress for too long. So, he intentionally got taken for the Nigerian government to start what he wants to start. And it would end well for everyone.
