my mum, she came me, i saw my daughter, she will conquer |
well said michelin, truly well said. this is horrendous. i feel personaly affected by this, i have a share in this history, but as a female, i have gotten married and forgotten about the lonely days and feeling of half life, and today i am a strong independent woman with a wonderful man, who values family, not like the valueless man that i never knew, i will definitely never spend my time and money looking for someone that never waited long enough to see me smile my first smile, laugh, walk or try to dress myself. i am more than compensated with having the kind of man i got as my huby, who takes delight in the slightes barble of his kids and thinks i am his everything. |
if it would make you feel good, and you realy want to blend, then get a good tailor there that specializes in african clothes making, and have her show u current african or nigerian magazines, or if you have a design in mind, then go ahead and make it. african prints are so wonderfully beautiful, and not like any other. ask for vlisco designs or material, they stand out. have fun ![]() |

ezeagu: https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v668/maryscottoconnor/AA3/slavery-torture.jpgtruth, brother. that is a really horrific sight. man has truly been inhuman to his fellow man. my hubys uncle visited us today, from abuja, and he truly admitted that slaves were sold by arochukwu, and many parts of igbo land. though dead and gone, the ravages of their trade has remained, people that dont know where they came from, will see the part of their fathers family and may go ahead to marry them, because they say they are americans and you say you are probably ghanaian. i cried like i was mourning when i saw the film of what germans did to isreal in sobibor, and i said for the free world, NEVER AGAIN!, nut it is still happening so many places, american soldiers raped a 14yr old girl in afghan(?), killed and burned her home to cover evidence. what is that mattew(?) fox film were soldiers held an asian girl captive even as she had acute fever, raping her for days. and still shot her. its truly horrendous. i say, it all starts from trying our best to raise humane children that will love and respect life, that can feel pain, and recognise when someone is in pain. may it never happen again. amen |
igalas?the people that eat rats ( let the biting begin) ![]() but seriously, what if igbo is older than igala, then igala may have been frozen in embryo and is still the elder bros, NOT! ![]() igbo is igbo, kpomkwem. what nonsense does it mean that we mixed with sudan, do we have sugar cane legs, and look like miniature giraffes? ![]() why is it hard for folks to agree that igbo is an original people, maybe they are trying to get credit for the fabulousity that is igbo. ![]() |
ahotara'm ihe ina ekwu. i pray that history is actually explained better. my greatgrandma died this year, but she had first hand knowledge of omenuko, tjhe famed trader of ( i think arondizuogu or arochukwu), it cant be denied, just the same way pencil jean cant be denied by this generation, ev en though the next generation may think it is hideous , and the generation after next may think it is waayyyycooool.seriously, i thik i am too goofy to find this slave trade issue serious. , i think if i had been a slave, i may have turned out a happy slave despite al odds., or a dead-at-arrival slave from annoying my master with my goofy nature ![]() |

tamme:well, you should have read it, seeing that it is 5 pages long, you would have deduced that the poster was soundly thrashed by everyone who read it, if not that it is dead and gone, i would have soundly thrashed her too. @topic , i was 20, when i married my huby who was 29, he had his biz going on, had graduated, was building and had a car. now how about that. |
ifyalways:me too ada, , but only child. ., so that means i am ada, ulu, ogo, okpara, osote okpara, no wonder i am super woman ![]() |
if so, then, down with this thread , cos its beginning to muddle my brain .are they paying tribute to igbo by building an igbo styled museum? if they are responsible for the slave trade, who took them there in the first place ![]() if it is a bad thing, was a german styled village built in isreal to commemorate what germans did to isrealites in sobibor? ![]() i dont understand the essence of this, sooooo poster, we have a lot of stuff to talk about than what igbo did and dint do besides if they did export slaves to america, maybe we should be grateful to them, cos now people are looking for how to escape to america, and are rejected, so they gave citizenship to the ones who were forced there ![]() maybe igbo should resume slave trade so that it will be free visa to willing folks abeg leave igbo alone o! if cow shit, it is igbo that told the cow to shit, if k-leg happen, it is igbo that caused the k-leg. na wah o |
aisha2:haba! its not that serious now ) |
ok, i just saw the youtube link, i wont bother clicking it, cos multilinks will take 1yr 3.5 days to show it to me .igbo e meriele ha ![]() |
hope it comes with a real outback(latrine) , else it wont be a real igbo village.it its true, since writer didnt quote his source, then obu ihe oma na ndi igbo na ahapu footprinti ha na ebe obula ha gara, igbo bu igbo kwezuo nu! hia |
iykedare:@iyke dare, see i dont support anybody or anything, what i am against is the obvious malicious childishness of the man. remember, she is the mother of his (maybe)children(if any), so he shouldnt call her a LovePeddler, when they can see that paper later in life. secondly, anything she revealed to him during marriage should remain like that, if not, women will no longer feel safe to tell their hubys any detail of heir former premarital life. besides, why is he saying it now, that they have obviously fallen apart if it just wasnt meant to cast aspertions on her person. she should sue his bon-com , ass for defamation and libel.i still maintain that he should be beaten with a rubber slipas, umbrella, kondo olopa, and lighter used to burn the hair in his nostrils. as it is now, women have to date a lot of toads and pigs who will take advantage of her and not marry her, and later turn up to call her a LovePeddler. ![]() |
anything tacky, razzy, gaudy, frumpy, ![]() |
i love to experiment with all, only limitation is if the body part showing isnt the best it should be. i will wear mini skirts if my legs were hotter, i will go braless if i hadnt 3kids etc , and my huby wasnt too conservative , before he asks who i am wearing it for ![]() but for now it would be the ( igbo)nigerian two wrapper thingy lawyers (fashion) wigs ( though its my proffession), i scratch like mad when i wear that thing ![]() leather( though o wore it as a teen ![]() |
@ poster, have you gotten close enough to the family to find out if they are core igbo or igbo at all? benue folks call their daughters ada. somebody may just have named the girl after somebody else, not necessarily as a first girls name. besides, i once despised a friend for telling me the name we gave my first daughter RHODA( a biblical name) is old school, but she likes the names of my 2 sons( Mitchell and Eli), i think it was really hurtful. i should reserve the right to call my kids what i want that is not generally ridiculous, not what someone thinks i should call them. afterall its not only jennifer and jane that are girls names( very popular). i used to not like my name sometime back, cos people say it is a word, like faith, love, joy, peace, ( i bear a name similar to that) , but now i know better, and that is why i vehemently told my friend to BUZZ- OFF ![]() |
Andre Uweh:arochukwu also calls it ikeji, with its aba and ekpo, thats my best part of culture, i remember igba oso ekpo( running from the ekpo ) in 1989 as a 7yr old. 1 ekpo masquerade made my ji( yam) and nmanu that my grandma gave me to fall on the ground, and i cried till i developed fever . but its all good, i celebrae my culture, wish i could be there. up up ikeji arochukwu! ![]() |

[color=#770077][/color] weightloss is just 1 of many purposes i use apple cider vinegar. i use it as a hair rinse with baking soda. gamine,, i actualy use kids organics, but i think its a scalp problem, even after washing my hair, i still scratch fire out of my head ,this harmattan, i intend to use raw shea butter to keep the ashiness abay. i use castor oil for my hair conditioning under steam, and also for getting the kure-kure out of my stomach(laxative), when i am constipated, it works wonderfully both ways, i only have a problem with its tastelessness and smell-lessness ![]() i wish it were bitter or sweet, so i know when i am suffering ![]() |
