Your question has an element of insult, Mr American Education.

Mr Carlos slim... I never intended to insult

megabyte2:
You're right

You will see how vocal they will be against this

talktimi:
These reps are just jobless. If you don't like dstv, buy startimes or cmtv nobody tied your hands or forced you. If the NBC as a regulator didn't know about or couldn't enforce industry best practices like their counterparts worldwide, who is to blame ?

You have reasoned like your people ...I just don't get it
..how can a man think this way ..you will kill your own to buy another man own

We just can't develop with this mentality


Sometimes I feel that I he biafrans are right ....how can one stay in the same country with people of your mindset


No patriotism... Always enjoying foriegn things and having no believe in yourself


What is it that dstv do that Nigerians can't do ?

I am in support of this ...they should clip dstv hands ..I am a proponent of protectionism. And fvck globalization

megabyte2:
So they're now lazy but when they needed their vote they were not lazy then, issokay

They knew they were lazy and that was why they used them...you can't tell a busy man to vote you in because of 5k...this what we spend on a drinking joint


This has come out to prove the regions and indolency

MissingBudget:
I can pay you 5k per month till 2019 at least. So I'm not jobless.

Bill gates ..I just asked a question

Carlos slim ...pls learn how to differentiate a question and a submission



So much for Nigerian education

yeanka007:
Yoruba and Igbo exchange of insults because of hatred between the two tribes is a
heart breaking.

I have lots Igbo friends when I was in school and I Love the Igbos alot.

I would be happy if the Igbos and the Yorubas can come together has one so therefore in order to solve a problem one has to know its roots.

The Igbos has always accused us the Yoruba as betrayals but I think it's a matter of lack of understanding between the two tribes.

So my Yoruba people what are the things the Igbos do that you don't like; Please a Igbo should open a similar tread.

Note: The purpose of this tread of for both side amend their wrong in order to bring about a peaceful relationship.

As for me one the things my igbo brothers do wrongly is lack of respect for host.

Yoruba is known for respect, we cherish Respect very and the Yorubas respect is more than greeting.

To us Respect is also acknowledging your host as a king of his house/territory.

Some of my igbo brothers get carried away sometimes that they act or things we Yorubas term as Disrespectful. One is them is situations where see an Igbo guy says " Igbos more than Yorubas in Lagos so Lagos is a no man's land"

Imagine a Yoruba guy goes to Imo and said such statement, the Yorubas will criticez him heavily because we believe that is insulting.

Pls Omo Odua add yours so that they can learn to amend what we considered wrong doings.

This i s the problem ..it's orientation and leaning

The Yoruba believes in much respect and king things
The igbo believe that he is a king unto himself and owe nobody any apology and his respect should be gotten via his hard work and ressillient not because you are a host or older


You see why both might find it difficult to merge
The Yoruba are more of socialist in nature
The igbo are more of capitalist in nature
The Yoruba are Monarchist in nature
The igbo are Republican in nature


The question is why and how do they merge


I pray and hope they will ever merge ...but nairaland is making that hard

dmater:
Ever since the continued clamour for a separate existence essentially every topic here is being created to disparage and cast Igbo people in bad light. 
Readers are being inundated with multiple threads of same content thriving at the same time. Even opposing views to such posts are, more often than not, suppressed and the posters banned. Such anomaly is being permitted maybe to satisfy sponsors and justify the pay. 

Many Igbo people have been forced out of Nairaland already to even provide the needed responses. Their absence has not brought the desired sanity expected on this forum. And judging from the grumpiness of individuals behind many of the sponsored posts there is still no peace in sight. 

It is too glaring that there exists a sinister plot to promote daily attacks on the Igbo people and their course. But on the long run the truth will always prevail.

You guys should just let the Igbo people be. They are comfortable being on their own. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Well spoken and written

Ugomba:
you should know that Truth is a Treason in Nigeria.

And also for anybody to be seen as a patriotic Nigeria ..he must have this aversion for anything igbo . this what I have also noticed



Chikwuo dube anyi

MissingBudget:
I hope this is not a ploy to avoid the 5k thing?

Are you jobless ? Why hope on that ...bro

PROVACATEUR:
Finally some miscreants here will stop posting trash because they won't be paid. They know themselves

Gbam

E go do dem for eyes like African movie magic

Where are those youths that shout sai buhari

Ugomba:
I de gbam. How tinx?
Its nice to tell a fact the way it is.

Yes ....eziokwu bu ndu ..just that Nigerians are more of revisionism and lies with propaganda

You will be amazed how they will twist your history to suit them

Udo di...Oga adili anyi mma

It is pointless rating this man..why ? I did not vote him .why ? Because I saw the lies the APC sold so didn't buy it

Why should I rate a man that uses lie Muhammad as spokesman
Disobeying judicial injunction
Making 5% statement
Told them he will make dollar at par with naira
Told them he will pay em 5k
Made us to believe that he will find their chibok girls or mums by now
A man that thought Germany still uses Dutch mark as currency and call it west Germany
A man that hasn't not commissioned a project or did ground breaking ceremony


Pls how do I rate this man...all I know that his rating is in negative



That's my take

Ugomba:
If Nzeogwu is still alive, He would have been politically under South South as a Delta Igbo.
- He led the coup yet The South East Igbos did not deny him, He ran to them for help. It was part of what triggered the war.
- Had it been that the S.E Igbos denied Nzeogwu as being Igbo, it would have been Hausa/Fulani vs Anioma.
- Thats What You Call A Brother Standing Firmly by a Brother.
.. PROUDLY ANIOMA and DELTA IGBO.

Nwanne madu...kedu ije ?

Always saying the truth ..that's why I like u

Nzeh12:
I was a GMB believer and I still believe in PMB but so far I'll rate him 0.2.
During his campaign he sounded like he had the keys to progress, but so far he hasn't shown promise. Let's see what happens before mid-year

Was olamide married ? Just asking

Cute dude

FTBOY:
I'm happy it's not all igbo men that share the same mentality with you

I am happy that majority of igbo share this mentality with me

FTBOY:
oga, stop spewing thrash from the corner of your mouth! what do you mean by igbo men are hard......are igbo men no longer humans with flesh and blood? and is it compulsory that he marries from his own tribe? are igbo girls from delta, anambra, enugu or imo angels? wtf are you saying? maybe you've never experienced true love and heartbreak in your life.....i don't expect you to understand

Igbo men are forbidden to even cry when they lost their parents ..here you are crying for a girl that is not your wife


You are ibo not igbo

Black man and frivolous life ..how can you call 900k budget wedding ...that's almost a million and which you can float a firm with

With 100k you can wed

Kimberly60:
I met her when she just graduated from Madona okija, she is from Edo state and lives in Benin, she was all I wanted in a woman, am ibo, I live and work in Ph, I will make it brief, we have dated for 2yrs now, her mom is aware of my efforts and struggles towards this relationship, to be sincere I have loved this girl with all my life, sometime in August 2015 I engaged her in her church, she accepted to marry me only to get home and her mom asked her to return the ring, she can't marry me cos am ibo and she is Benin, secondly am not very rich, and I practically have nothing to offer her, finally she is the only Gurl, Hmmmmm she never wore the ring for one day after d engagement, I kept complaining but all to no avail, she never made me see her put effort to be with me, I kept complaining, I can't count the number of times I drive to Benin just to see her, if I say 40 times God knows it's too small, I have introduced her to my family and making arrangements for marriage only for her to chat me up saying the relationship is over, she cant continue, am in deep pains, deeper than you can imagine, telling me she is the only girl of her mom, am trying so hard to move on, her mom knows so well my efforts, she never stopped the relationship all the while, when her daughter was posted to delta for service I drive all the way from ph to Edo to pick her and take her there, I can boldly say through out her service year not for once did she go to her PPA alone, all of a sudden I have nothing to offer, God will Judge them all. They deceived me: they will forever struggle and at the end have a worthless end, I write this in pain, I just need an advice on how to move on, is it wrong loving a girl who isn't your tribe?

Stop These cries beacsue of woman ...us her toto gold...igbo men are known to be hard ...I doubt if you are igbo

You are a disgrace

What happened to igbo women from Delta , anambra enugu and imo

Guy man up

You are not igbo but ibo

That has been noted

A lot of wanna be

agbotaen:
1. my igbo friend , please do not continue in this type of propaganda about civil which occurred in 1966, the ika universal delcaration was in 1930 , when the british counted ika area as benin or part of benin ,when benin chiefs told them ika was founded by benins and part of benin ,so our fathers said they where not part of any known ethnic group in nigeria and that ika was an ethnic group of its own , so it has nothing to do with the civil war.
2. every community and people has the right to decided who they are , and even if the europeans or any body later classified ika as igbo ,we the ika people have the right to say we are not igbos, and that we have done,in delta state , the british initially classified isoko as part of uhrobos , may be because of similarity in language and it took many years but later isoko pulled out and asserted thier isoko as a seperate ethnic group, the point is not what people call you but what do you call your self.
3. no ika person has ever denied that there was igbo migration in to ika area or that some igbo culture existed in ika land ,but it is the igbo people that clearly avoid the fact that ika has a strong benin culture in kingship, way of life, religion, dressing, hair style , system of political culture and ideology and a mix of benin in our language ,but go on saying it is only igbo that founded ika , that is very funny with all the ika people with benin names, and the fact that some parts of ika like ozara and ten other villages and tows speak a language similar to edo or are these villages also igbo ,or should we say they are not ika based on their language,
4. why is it that it is only the igbos that will not let others be and they like claiming any body with their names or certain culture , itsekiri is a mix of yoruba and edo and some of them bear yoruba names, while others bear benin names and their language is a mix of both stroongly yoruba and edo , but they are a different ethnic group and the yorubas are not going on propaganda to say why do the itsekiris not say they are yoruba or the benin saying the same thing, the isoko was merged to uhrobo before but they later pulled out and uhrobo people are not masking noise about it ,and ishan and benin has similarity in language but both are different ethnicities and no noise is made about it by the benins,so why is it difficult for igbo people to know and accept that ika is a seperate ethnic group different from igbo and that majority of ika people will never like to be igbo .
5. currently the people of igbodo kingdom are at logger head with their obi,because he went to marry an ebonyi -igbo woman and the community is saying that an igbo woman cannot give them a heir apparent ,and that he should marry an igbodo woman or an ika or anioma or edo woman ,because that is the tradition in ika land, may be that is a food for thought for many igbo people , please read further on this issue on www.ikaworld.com
igbodo is the most eastern area of ika land and their nearness to predominantly igbo cultural area has influenced their language and way of life and many of the citizen migrated from igboland and they are usually the ikas that say they are igbo and that invariably all ikas are igbo , but this sentiments still persist.
6. the ika people know that they share something with igbo and edo and we can work with these two groups at our advantage ,and it is not by propaganda that the igbos can get ika to work with them ,but by proper understanding of the ika man and respect for his ethnicity that will bring about that , ika people are very sturborn and we can stand our ground , in ancient benin empire it was ika that was always battling benin,and during the british too our fathers went to war against them, and this stand was also proven during the civil war,

A true son of soil known as ugomba will deal with you a Benin refugee in anioma land

ezeagu:
You do know there are Igala in Anambra? That the mixed with the people long ago and that there are Igala villages near northern Anambra state?

But they are igbonized

Preshioux:
@agbotaen...no matter how hard u try to educate some folks here, dey wud just kip bin stupid n insultive..d best way dey can kno d truth is by bin in d midst of ika people n get concrete answers..even wit the language affinity btw yoruba n itshekiri, annang n ibibio, urhobo n isoko, dey remain distinct..i dont kno d argument here..dat d american speaks english doesnt make him an english man..

But America majority of them have English origin just like Aussies

cheruv:
I know Agbontaen...the Bini refugee in agbor who now wants to diktat on how ikas would identify themselves.
I know Ali ika was a land of refuge for felons and people banished from AlaBini and its environs.
Am sure agbontaen is a descendant of such people.. Kos people in ika and ukwuani areas who deny being Igbo are children of such people.Igbos never carried out wars of aggression, so anybody who claims he's not Igbo in those areas came from outside!

You really know him


His madness is legendary

agbotaen:
1. is igbo an ethnic group? if the ansewer is yes then anioma too can become an ethnic group if we say so , as igbo was crafted with the help of europeans ,just like yoruba and others including my beloved ika ethnic group , and i know this will hurt many igbos .
2. ika people dont have identity crisis it is igbos that are suffering from hallucination of thinking ika is igbo , and may be your people want to build a new empire , when benin empire has even falling .and sokoto caliphate is no more.
please wake up , even during the time of benin empire , it was ika people that were batlling them in most cases .
3. you are making a vague claim , which ika obi is a member of ohazneze ndigbo ? please mention his name and kingdom in ika ? and it shows you are just an igbo man from accross the river niger ,and you are not from delta , because if you are you will know that ndokwa people dont have obi , what they have is okpala-uku,so get that .
4. please igbo people were are you people from ?
igbos claim they are from nri
2. they claim they are from igbo ukwu
3. igbos also claim they are from isreal ,
as an all knowing race ,who can tell ika people where they come from , please where are you from

This man ...you are still here on this ika madness ....well more grease to your elbows that's if you have elbow


Can't you have anything else to do with your life


Igbo this igbo that

Such a shame

worriedmind:
Hi guys. They say a problem shared is a problem half solved. I noticed that I've developed body odour ‎for about 2 years now. I'm 35 years and I first noticed it in 2014 about when I just got a new job. I've tried all sorts of deodorants and body sprays and nothing works. Body sprays actually makes it worse for me. I've tried driclor and maximum strength anti perspirants but to no avail. I've tried the baking soda treatment, lime and lemon but still to no avail. I make it a point of duty to shave every night so it's not like I keep hairs. I also shower atleast twice everyday. It's not like i get too sweaty,infact I don't perspire as much as to wet clothes in the pits area yet the slightest hint of sweat that comes on mixes with whatever roll on I have on and then creates a bad smell even when I'm dry. I get a lot of mean looks and turned heads everyday and it's actually starting to affect me mentally as I dream of people rubbing their noses and making faces at me in my sleep. Funny how people judge you immediately like you don't groom yourself properly. My life is on a stand still right now and I get panic attacks from the thought of going out because of the treatment and funny looks I get from people. I've been masturbating for about 7 years now, could this be the cause? Is there any link between masturbation and body odour? Could it be ulcer? I'm inclined to think it's from from the inside because I've tried all measures of outter cleanliness. Please has anyone out there ever encountered this social burden and how did u deal with it? Please help a dying soul. 


Lalasticlala kindly move this to front page so I can get more help. Thanks alot‎

You didn't tell us your sex ...because women tend to smell more than males

But we have to be honest
Shave off all the pubic hair and armpit

Then always bath like 3 times daily

Use good soap and get a deodorant possibly nivea ..that's a good one

RightBoo:
So they don't use okenye instead of dee as elder?

They use that interchangeably

HopeAtHand:
Ugomba, i dunno if im invited to your thread.

Anyway, i still invite myself.


I congratulate Anioma people of Delta state for their decision to reassert their Igboness. I also congratulate the Oyigbo and Egbema people of Rivers for their decision to reassert their Igboness

We should also recognise and accept the decision of the Ikwerres, Ogbas and Ekpeye people who have said they are not Igbos, and accord them the respect they deserve. By doing so, we can live at peace with all men.

Thank you all for your understanding. Happy new year.

But my friend Uche from ikwerre said he is igbo

He hasn't made u his spokesman ..just grow up.

Amechi said he is igbo...did u not hear him

So what are u...basically nobody
