Boy you are obviously too good for the job and they didn't want to waste your future chasing after bank deposit! You are lucky you didn't get the dirty job because its a dead end job that will suck the life and willingness to live out of you. Imagine having such an ass as a boss? Rubbish

Well he can make a career out of banking but I think he is a kid and he will learn to take streets as they come

ibedun:
So, tonychristopher is just a job hunting punk upon all your forming in the politics section particularly Igbo matters. I thought you had bought all my ancestral land finish? With your Indian company job? Anuofia, just make sure you no give woman belle otherwise you will wipe an Indian man's yansh tire. Onyeberiebe

Oga by his grace I gave grown pass that level and why do you insult were u raised from insult..you acted like one stupid boy here on nairaland that keeps posting wrong pictures of me and also pictures of me when I was paying my dues that was ages ago...when I showed him the real Tony

He turned around and said that I am a ritualist band since then has stopped . we are still hunting for the money and that is it


Now grow up...I know that I can feed you cos I am feeding people better than you and for your information I am married and has passed the level of giving woman belle like 5 yrs ago


Too much kids here

bigfrancis21:
This is correct. It is common for any dissenting group to want to claim 'migrated from bini' as if that makes them different. Even the Ikwerres, actually migrated from Arochukwu, Awka and Orlu areas, who never had any Bini mentioned in their history in the past have found a way to cook up Bini claims in their history.

I dey shame for them....nobi this Benin I know abi na another one?

IsiAbuncha:
Man, you're smart!

Boils down to what I said earlier, the cultural differences and inability to understand the other man's culture is what is basically causing what people call tribalism.
All these tribes you matched above have similar cultural backgrounds and that's why marriages amongst themselves can be successful

Let me add Hausa + Fulani, Idoma + Tiv, etc

That's it..even in animal kingdom the tiger+tigress the lion + lioness the frog + frogret ( lol)

OdenigboAroli:
And why would a sensible Igbo man marry outside of his tribe? How do you preserve your culture? I think inter-tribal marriage is disgusting and unnatural. Even God made sure Israelites marry from their tribes to strengthen the bond and culture.

It also confuses the kids ..when a father is from ijaw the mother is from Benin when you ask the kids where are you from ..she says my mum is Benin dad ijaw

You see the confusion and it also makes the kids a bit impure genetically

The only inter tribal I suggest is urhobo + isoko. Benin + ishan. Igbo+ ukwuani or ekpeye,ikwerre. Efik + ananng or Ibibio
.


Igala + idoma. Yoruba + itshekiri or Benin or ijebu or utsen

..others your on your own

Rayhut:
Mr man how can somebody that doesn't have money start a business, it is always easy said than done, to start a business you need money to invest, it is only people with handwork that did not need money to start business, e.g interior decoration, online marketing, fashion design etc, the reason why many youth could not venture into business is because of lack of capital to start, I am a business man, I know what it takes to nurture a business in Nigeria where there is no electricity,multiple taxation, high cost of shops, it is on record that 3 out 5 businesses in Nigeria pack up after few years because of all this. You will end up selling your EBook to those dropping their Email and run away

Bro if you have ideas money will come once there is a will there is a way


But one has to work or understudy a proffesion so as not to get his hand burnt when on a self employment

October1960:
Well done my brother. Working for Indians is worse than slavery. There are MANY other choices out there than to settle for their nonsense in our own country.

I just can't work for them never did and by the grace of GOD won't work for em

You will grow in this ..your confidence will improve and as you get a job your desperation will less


I have gone to an interview in a multi national firm that was last few years r the lady wanted to blab.. They just called like 6 of us ..wel it wasnt an interview per say just to brief us based on experience and what to be expected of us


The firm is an Indian firm and I vowed never to work for any Indian ..never knew when I came into the firm I started seeing Indians and this garlic insesne smell .they called me up...the guys that went there said that the lady interviewing them is nasty


Made up my mind to give her my own..trust me Igbo guy...confidence oozing ..when she said that they will employ me and pay me something funny that I should bring so so sales for them that I should make sure that my team makes upto 50mil sales


I looked at here I laughed and I told her that I am not just interested in that job that she should give it to her husband


She was amazed...I am not desperate not even Indian jobs


Don't worry bro

bokohalal:
Songhai and Mali had relationship with Arabia. Benin remain the first African people to have relations with Western Europeans.
The Portuguese established relationship with Ethiopia in 1520.
They first reached Benin in 1478 and established diplomatic relation in 1482.

Do we have any scholarly evidences to back this bogus claim

Funjosh:
My sister we are on the same page just that we are not reading the same line, Southern fringe of the Desert is still part of the Desert.

Then northern fringe of tropics is still part of tropics

Funjosh:
Read and Re-read what you posted here, hope you understand it may be am the one that is seeing different thing.

Oga the basis of argument is west Africa where they said Benin is the first kingdom that had a relation with EU which I countered with Timbuktu and Songhai

Is that not the basis ?

Funjosh:
A simple Atlas would have help.

Timbuktu’s history
The Niger River, Timbuktu
The Niger River, Timbuktu
Although the city of Timbuktu was established in the 12th century and became an important commercial centre, it only gained widespread prominence as an intellectual capital in the 15th century. Chroniclers mention that the city has its roots in a nomadic summer camp set up a few miles from the river Niger, as a base from which they could pasture and water their camels during the period of intense heat. This position proved strategic for commerce and soon attracted many settlers. The settlement was important not only because of its location at the junction of the dry Sahara and the lush central valley of the river Niger, but because the river itself constituted an easy pathway for transporting goods to and from the more tropical regions of West Africa. Thus merchants settled there early on and were subsequently followed by Muslim scholars much later, after the establishment of a permanent community.

The population of Timbuktu was always mixed. Although

Now timbuktu is in tropics and at the smae time Southern tip of Sahara

why are you taking time to explain these identity confused people, sometimes I wonder how they reason...you will see somebody that bears Ifeoma Nwoko from somewhere in Ika and the monkey will say she is not igbo and will vehmently deny igboness...what I will do is not that I will pet her...I will just call her fake Igbo..simple


ife eji abu igbo erika...oburo so afa


When you pet these ID crisis ones they feel special


So I drop them as if they are hot cakes

pazienza:
How can we say that Anioma is not original Igbo and yet, for years, the two elite Igbo organizations ie Aka Ikenga and Ohanaeze Ndiigbo were led by Anioma sons, and the Asagba of Asaba remains a grand patron of Ohanaeze Ndiigbo.

Nne eh, it's high time you stop listening to our detractors. Igbo belongs to all of us, that was why Nzeogwu coup was termed "Igbo coup" and not Okpanam, Aniocha/ Oshimili or Delta coup, even though they( Nigerians) all knew that Nzeogwu was from Okpanam Oshimili in Delta state and not from SE.

Never did Ndiigbo from SE protest and insisted that Nzeogwu is not Igbo, even though denying him would have been a safe option, but we never did, even till today, and we all bore the consequences of Nzeogwu's actions. We suffered together and survived together. Anyi bu ofu, don't let our enemies tell you otherwise.

No SE Easterner is a more originally Igbo than any Anioma person, don't let them tell you any different.

Anyi bu ofu!

You want me to pet you or words....your in for a long thing, read my signature again

favouredon:
See beta person dey talk. No be people like that disgusting tonychristopher. Thank you

Fulaman198:
I wonder the same thing about you guys as well:

" Important cities located in the Sahara include Nouakchott, the capital of Mauritania; Tamanrasset, Ouargla, Béchar, Hassi Messaoud, Ghardaïa, and El Oued in Algeria; Timbuktu in Mali; Agadez in Niger; Ghat in Libya; and Faya-Largeau in Chad."

My history is in this region so expect me to know it very well

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sahara

Oga we are talking west Africa here

What is wrong with you ?

nwaniru:
I am from Iru and we speak Ika language as well but better still we live under Edo state just like igbanke and other Ika speaking dialect, We live the same kind of life with Agbor and we never associate or do things with Benin even our relatives, families all live in Agbor clans like 1.Oyibu,
2. Alizomor, 3.Owa Alidinma, 4.Ufie, 5. Aliro, 6.Owanta, 7. Owa-Eke and others, so i want us to be always remembering Iru because we speak Ika but not Benin.

Chukwu golzie GI...


What the meaning of iru ...nwanne

victor1464:
wats ur business with ika. Y not mind ur business. U igbos r just too dubious.

Benin immigrant how far?

boskolin:
This is an ika man, is this how Igbo man dress?. ika are not Igbo.

No tribe in the south of Nigeria dress like this ...this dude doesn't know culture


He is wearing danshiki

Benin don't dress like this


He is like aboki

Just that he is tying bandanna or scarf

fr3do:
Thank you
This is the point I passed to Grandma when she opinionated that her people - the Ukwuanis and Ikas are from benin, she argued that we are binis whose language have been 'corrupted' by Igbo, but I respectfully objected stating that it can only be the other way round since Aniomas speak basically Igbo with only few shared words with bini.

On the other hand, I dismiss South-East migratory tales because such promotes ideas that pin Igboness to the politically defined South-East, the same way yorubaness is pinned to Ife and Oyo.
Anioma communities don't need to have foundersfrom the SE to be considered Igbo, Anioma is intrinsically Igbo just as Igbo-Ukwu, Nri and Aro.

Face - 3.1/10
Assets- 6.5/10
Attitude : Unknown
Elasticity of heart : 6 to 8 months

Delta girls :

Your mates are busy analysing business ventures your here analysing woman shape



Nawa

melzabull:
hahaaha...Absolutely

That's it

melzabull:
He is Igbo. I have been following his comments for a long while. I know an impostor when I see one and i know his type. Thanks

My signature is specifically made for his type


Read it

wordbank:
The official interbank rate when I checked yesterday was N199.05

Try change it in the street and see that aboookki will deal with you

They said they will make naira same with dollars before election ...talk is really cheap


APC look @ you now

On we forgive you on naira

But atleast win boko boys

melzabull:
Honestly this is what irks me so much about that guy obailala. He is igbo but 99% of his comments are anti-igbo, even when obvious Inustice is being done. I have never seen this sort of self-hate In my life

@bolded, he is rather the not very smart and foolish ones too who will rather join other tribes to insult Igbos. I have told him before that he is making so much effort at being more Nigerian than the N in naira, whereas this is the same annoying guy that has never challenged any anti-igbo or pro-yoruba comment despite all the tribal slurs against Igbo on this forum.

He and Joe Igbokwe are on same pedestal, fools that you all never see defend their tribe even in the face of obvious persecution but will rather join others to disparage Igbos.

#spits

One lesson you will know in nairaland is that not all that claim that they are Igbo are real Igbo

I have seen a lot of impostors and believe me when I tell you this

So don't worry about it.

Ihuomadinihu:
Well,where did you get your Information? Because Timbuktu is located at the Southern end of Sahara desert and close to the northern tip of River Niger. It's has also been regarded as the outmost part of Subsaharan West Africa.

My sister why argue with those people ..sometimes I wonder the kind of graduates we are churning out these days

Funjosh:
Yes Mali one of the country in sub sahara africa with city of Bamako and Timbuktu, luckily Bamako is located in sub-sahara Africa while Timbuktu is located in the heart of the Sahara.

Cc tonychristopher

Oga is it not I. West Africa .....we are talking west Africa here not tropical region

If anybody can read my signature ..it is for people like rochas


I just dey shame for umunne m na IMO state

Fulaman198:
Timbuktu is in the Sahara desert in West Africa....... Whites have brainwashed people on what Sub-Sahara Africa is.

You are right that in Timbuktu though, there was philosophy, astronomy and mathematics.

What is wrong with you..I promise you that this is the last response I am going to give you.I did not reply you since because I have understood the level of your submission and it will be an infra dignitatem to respond but I will give you the last one


You said west Africa and I gave you Timbuktu which is in west Africa ..dude did you ever attended a geo class ...Timbuktu is in west Africa


Now another civilisation or kingdom that is far more older and more advanced than that your Benin is shongai kingdom


Can pls Google it....


Your not paying me for lectures here


I had a jet lag let me rest


Good night

xtrorse:
From your first comment you shouldn't have bothered concealing your hypocritical bigotry while appearing to be objective defending the indefensible Quota System on Unity Schools admission.

From your trainings you understood by books that exercising one's franchise right in a democratic setting is tantamount to killing oneself politically.

I don't need to blame you for how low you can sink to support injustice. I blame myself for being made to be in the same country filled with hypocritical bigots with bizarre understanding.

Time shall tell...

That's the only regret ..sharing the same country with buffoons...and I mean it

When you hear most talk you will see a while lot of illogicalities even their elders


I have learn to ignore many of them that is why I will not quote any of them

When I was growing up my people will drum it into my ears that I am Igbo and that I am the best and from the best ethnic group. .I thought they were joking till I start seeing this when I started growing up


The fact is that the Nigerian people have thrown in the towel and agreed unconsciously and unconventionally that Igbo has the highest IQ in Nigeria nay Africa


No wonder the man that had the highest IQ is an Igbo man and this has been proved over and over both at home and abroad

To be honest I don't consider the cut off mark of north or anybody to matter all that matters to me is to let my children know that they are the best


That's how our father's brought us up

I give all the glory to God



Why won't the Igbo man beat his chest after seeing that he is better academically and streetwise

But wben the average igbi dude sees this tell me why wont he look down on the rest nigeria peeps


They have fibally af
