Ibadanfarmroad:
wetin concern me with yoruba, do you mean it's all about yoruba? Because i never mentioned yoruba in my statement.

Let me make it clear to you again, if you are not indigenous to any states or land in Nigeria, me thinks its best to abolish mini or semi kinship in a land or state you are not indigenous to, what happened to chairman of igbos, leader of igbos? While must it be king and start appointing chiefs?

I am not yoruba for your info.
I am esan.

Those people dey see Yoruba for their dreams I no tell you?

Thunderfayamods:
Nor be only you taya for them! One is already saying Ghanians are jealous of them just imagine!

So you don't know omenka was trolling!did you just register on nairaland newly?

Ibadanfarmroad:
so yoruba made the GA's ban igbo king in ghana

For your info i am not and can never be yoruba, i am esan from esan central local govt area.
Proudly irrua.

You still carry yoruba enter ghana matter, those people dey really torment una.

and na that yoruba tribe they love to hate that they can't stay clear of their lands can they survive in their potopoto enclaves without trooping into yoruba land with their nylon bags?I blame the accommodating nature of the yorubas! maybe it's the Yoruba that told them to lack decorum

mikeapollo:


Ghana that got independence and started developing on their own 3 and half years before Nigeria got independence!

90% Development ko, developmnti ni!

You don't understand sarcasm at all

It's a culture. Oyimbo even join Igbos in celebrating it in different European countries, Asian countries, Australia, New Zealand and America. Go on Facebook and watch the videos, very entertaining, only black Africans now see it as an attempt to dominate and take over their land which started from Yorubas.


It's social media that spread it and other black African countries are now copying the Yorubas out of black people's insecurity and foolishness.


Those title carry no weight, they are just ceremonial and it's just among the Igbos communities.



If Igbos do something wrong outside Igbo land, I will be the first to call them out but this very issue is not one of such. They are making unimportant thing to look so important.


There is a popular adage in Igbo culture which the whiteman also collaborated right from colonial era; Igbo enweghi Eze (Igbos have no king)


Igbos don't have much reverence for traditional rulers and title holders like the Yorubas, Hausas, Fulanis, etc. Igbo title holders are mostly ceremonial, they carry no weight or influence among Igbos, only few who are first class kings of ancient Igbo kingdoms carry some level of influence but not compared to that of Yorubas, Hausas, Fulanis, etc, it's a cultural thing.


So this news is borne out of envy, jealousy, envy and unjust hatred towards a people trying to promote their culture outside their ancestral community to give their people a sense of belonging and cultural identity, it is nothing more than that.


I am sure the only thing the Ghanaians are angry about is the said man's purchase of plenty hectares of lands he said he wanted to use to build an Igbo community in Ghana to promote Igbo culture; as insecure black people, they found it intimidating that Igbos want to take over their community, and this they learnt from Yorubas via the social media which makes local news and events to travel globally within seconds in this our generation.

Leave Yoruba out of your mouth "ma je ki n won e lepe"Yoruba isn't the only tribe in Nigeria we still have over 249 other ethnic groups unfortunately the yorubas you love to hate it is only their land you can be domiciled outside of your potopoto region yet you pay them back with ingratitude no be dem tell you to be constituting nuisance every where you reside their are other Nigerian ethnic groups in Lagos,ghana,south africa, thailand,India,malaysia yet you won't hear of them because they aren't lousy nor garruicious since I have been reading your comment when I joined this forum some years ago all your submissions have always being about the yoruba tribe you can't even mask your hatred!!

Will what be welcomed in Southeast?

Why do you guys always say this nonsense?


So if a Yoruba man goes to Owerri and buy hectares of land to build an estate and name it Oodua people estate where he have areas dedicated to displaying Yoruba cultures and tradition, that it won't be welcomed in Igbo land how please? Haven't you seen Malaysia, South Africa, Accra, Mozambique, Abuja, etc estates in different Southeast cities?


I have made a challenge here in the past, I have a lot of lands in Owerri, Awka, Enugu and Asaba that I am looking for serious buyers, any Yoruba, Hausa, etc interested should dm me, I don't care the person's tribe, and so are many others who have lands for sale.


They will see the adverts and look the other way, and then come online to claim Igbos don't sell land to none Igbos, says who? The only land that you cannot be able to buy in Igbo land is people village compound where their ancestors lived and got buried, Igbos see it as a taboo selling such lands, but any other land, especially those in the town and city areas are up for highest bidder; be it Igbo, Ijaw, Hausa, Yoruba, etc, but unfortunately most other tribes in Nigeria have phobia of investing outside their region (minus Lagos, Abuja and maybe Portharcourt), many have closed mind and fear of investing in real estate outside their region except Igbos who don't care, they invest and build anywhere they live or hear or like.


An average Igbo man love building, it's in us, we build anywhere we have someone that convinces us; the man in question married a Ghanaian woman and the woman is even misleading him into investing most of his wealth in Ghana and we Igbos are not screaming foul play that a Ghanaian woman has stolen our brother and his wealth.


Me, most of the places I own lands and projects, I don't live in those cities, but mostly convinced by close friends or relatives, but other tribes are not like us, they don't feel comfortable investing outside their region and they will come online and be lying against Igbos that Igbos don't sell lands to none Igbos, says who?



Please don't let them brainwash you.


Even most of the Igbos you see that own mansions outside Igbo land also own mansions in their hometowns and state capitals, if not for social media exposing all those facts, most of you would believe Igbos only invest outside Igbo land but it's also another lie. For most Igbos, before they build a house in the city, they have built one in their hometown or state capital, silently without noise

Where has it ever be seeing and heard you sell land in your eastern states to any other tribes apart from your own let alone 50 hectares? even dangote couldn't get 1 plot of your land in your ala Igbo let alone 10 hectares you people are so clannish and please leave Yoruba out of your discussion because it isn't yoruba protesting in that ghana because of your domineering attitude.

If all is being fair they are even the most welcoming as you can't try little of what you do in their land in the north or south south you can't even take it in your own land yet it is them you disrespect the most as the yoruba adage implies"eni owo ka
lan le idi mo"

As someone implied up there accountability is not in your forte always claiming being victimized whereas it is you who does the victimization why only una everywhere? Malaysia,south Africa,India,Ghana, Thailand,Vietnam etc?you need to look inward

Britishpea:
you are not rational...Are you sure you will succeed as a lawyer?? You will be better off as lease and rent agent....Someone said she was a secondary school drop-out yet you were subjecting her to an intellectual profiling like you said? You never asked her what class in secondary school she dropped out from nor if she would like to continue, or rather convince her on the reasons she has to continue...Maybe you did but you just didnt tell us...ok fine..


T


What intellectual proprietary were u expecting her to have? did you even know if the little edu she had was in one village in Esa Odo or Oron?...You even went ahead to ask someone who has never been married before nor catered for anyone in her life how much she wanted you guys to run a family?

She wanted a sole business, it is your duty to convince her, your duty to educate her and all...You can even teach her how to run a business since you think you were smarter..
The only difference between you and her, if there is any, is that you had some unreasonable ego that couldnt even make you find a girl yourself but took the help of a street sister to....

To you right now, you are intelligent...Oh boy, you are dull...
The poor girl might not truly have data...

this is apt

lilyheaven:
What is a lawyer doing with a secondary school dropout.
State secondary schools are affordable, I’m sure she didn’t drop out because of finance .
You can only connect with someone lower than your career if trust and love brought you two together.

I don't even believe this story probably some fabricated story to malign females that are leeches because how can a person with 2 degrees not have a graduate girl friend even throughout his higher institution days?and who even drops out of a secondary school these days when there are government owned owns that are cheaper? except she got pregnant while she was still in school!!at worst the person will graduate from the secondary school only may not be able to proceed to a university because of financial constraints.

you are the confused person here you have 2 degrees yet you can't find a female degree holder or an msc holder to marry you had to go through a street sister yet you are complaining about her mentality? her level of education will reflect her mentality and maturity now or are you too docile to ask your fellow degree holders out?

It's just like you wanting a slim woman yet you date a a chubby woman and later pressurisez her to slim down!!

yinkeys:
What happened to manual labour, probation or community service ?
Many Nigerians are not okay mentally
Even some formally educated persons
Probably got their certificates through loads of cheating & not intellectual brain power
This isn’t discipline, so called babas or ex military generals that engaged in s tealing Nigerias money don’t get public shamed like this
We are just deceiving ourselves in this country
Acting like animals is what they consider discipline

canning is legal it's in the constitution would you have preferred he goes to jail because of fighting?he is under 18(a juvenile), better than being fined and not being able to meet the bail requirement or the amount of money even in the saner clime canning is legal there only most offenders won't opt for it.

He should serve corporal punishment like clearing bushes for 2 weeks or washing the public toilets just for fighting? the sowore will not even bail him out had he been locked up

Still prefers it to sentencing him to a jail term ,fining him,or giving him short put(sharia law) though what's the fuss about?

DeepSight:
Wrong List.

Burkina Faso was called Upper Volta.

DRC was called Zaire.

Botswana was called Rhodesia.

I can go on and on.

Zimbabwe was called Rhodesia not Botswana

Probably you meant 1900 how can one wvo was born in 1900 and died 2025 be 115 years old?

Ask of ora Inu ekun from the women that sells herbs(elewe Omo) and run it on it it will dry off

Global2000:
Truth be told. South East has been neglected for many years. Nigerian government has no been fair enough to South East. Their representatives are wolves. Their infrastructures are long decayed.

I am not even a fan of any politician be it obi,Atiku,or tinubu since all are selfish and only thinks of their pockets but your representative in that south east haven't been doing well you have senators,rep members, chairmen, councillors and governors who receive allocations, constituency allowances etc from the president shouldn't they be the ones to build your roads,schools and hospitals? your rep members like Abaribe and ekweremadu who have been in power more than 12 years don't do anything with the huge allocations they receive you won't lambast them yet you insult gbajabiamila and yayi Adeola who does things for their constituencies.

This is why I want Nigeria to go back to real regionalism so everyone will know who to hold for their lack of social amenities!!

It's resembles an african civet not really a domestic cat but in the same feline family

God bless u

JJ omojuwa asked a question online n the response shows obedient movement is nothing but Ibo movement to produce president


He asked " if we can't question Peter obi now as an ordinary citizen without been bullied, cancelled, threatened and our character assassinated. How do we hold him accountable if he becomes the president?


If u check how ibos attacked him, it opened many people's eyes that once we vote obi we should b ready for idi Amin part 2 cos obi will never do wrong in the eyes of his people, no matter what he does it will always look good n b defended

Cc hotseat

Obedient movement is ipob in disguise it's an ethnic party those other obedient members not Igbo will be discarded one by one it started from apapa,now Akin olaiya,even P.o co aspirant from borno state do you hear anything from him again?same treatment will be meted to Farotimi,Debo macaroni,Falz etc peter obi hasn't even win as a president yet they are already eliminating the other tribe members it's only a slowpoke or a child born yesterday that won't know of that tribe domineering nature,if Obi wins the presidency today I give yusuff datti 2 years maximum he will be done with by accusing him of being a mole ,impeached and elect their tribal man to his position do you think it's a little thing?they don't sell their lands to anyone not of their ethnic group?they are hostile,hateful,and insatiable just like their fulani counterparts.

They are clannish and asinine didn't wole Soyinka spent months or years in prison for them,even victor Banjo, major Ademoyega weren't they paid back with evil?

Even they are hateful and domineering to their selves my Dad had a novel about the Biafra war written by Brgd Alex madiebo where one of the Igbo army officers who were part of the Jan 1966 coup was lynched in the heartland of Igbo during the war because he questioned ojukwus tactic of
prolonging a needless war and starving the civilians something that could have been averted earlier do you know what they termed him? a"saboteur and a mole" it's being long I read the book I think it was one maj okafor or okaka he was a captain during that coup period was promoted to a major by ojukwu.and the Alex madiebo described that lynching with glee and relish very heartless things!!if God hadn't been with maj Ademoyega he may have been lynched too

I hate every politicians or any political party since they are all the same thieves but anything that has to do with majority Igbos I disassociate from them these are people who their politicians even performs lesser than all other regions politicians yet they have the guts to castigate gbajamiala that does well for his constituency my siblings that supported them in 2023 had learnt in the hard ways!!

Xxtweakxx:
Connection is more valuable

And it's every politicians domestic staffs that later became connected?if you work as an ordinary staff to a politician you will still end up being an ordinary man

iamL:
You need to go out more then.

He is saying the truth politicians only dash out monies to their cronies,sugar daughters (aristos)and their occultic members more even their immediate family members they ignore them in Ikole Ekiti I lived before I know of a family I won't mention their name this man was in the house of rep 2 consecutive term yet his wealth didn't even show in his siblings life let alone outsiders granted his mum had given birth to him before she married another husband but is that why he couldn't help his siblings? he couldn't even get his younger female twins siblings government job they are into trading not saying that's bad but at least they can still combine a paid employment with business one of his siblings and her family were my church members and I taught his nephews and nieces in the private school I taught,infact his immediate younger sis is a vulcanizer the house he built is from his sweat years before the man became a federal house of rep member in Abuja.

It's like the pact they sign with the devil is never to help and spend on their relatives before they can attain any political position even his mum you wouldn't see her then and say her son was a rep member she still lived in the house she had been living many years ago

Karleb:
The problem is that you guys think high profile politicians pay well.

You'll earn 50k at most.

very true a family friend of mine worked for a politicial aspirant as a security guard they were two securing his house in one of the towns in Ekiti even though he had another mansion in Lagos I won't mention the precise town their monthly pay was 25k yet this man owed them 11 months this was a man who kept doling out millions for his party members and the would be electorates during campaigns even had done empowerment,aged people monthly allowance,donated transformers,solar boreholes few years before his campaigns that is when I knew all politicians are the same many of them are what yoruba will call"adara nita ma dara nile" he never won the Ekiti north senatorial seat though I can't even say whether the security guys were later paid as i have relocated from that town Nigerian politicians are sadistically evil,heartless and cruel probably it's because they had sold their soul to the devil.

where you put Mozambiquan,Angolan,Zimbabwean,and Malagasy women?or elongated forehead is now the true definition of beauty?

Eriokanmi:
They really look alike. No DNA needed. Most of these guys don't really treat their parents good. The moment I saw asake's father lament in social media, I stopped listening to his music and deleted all his tracks off my side. Charity begins at home.

same with me never really liked his music before self

Rubbish kids should take care of both their parents if they are still alive which one is women are more spiritually strong than men?yet the percentages of both gender in the spiritual sectors (priesthood, pastor hood, traditional religion and even Islam)is disproportionate) with men taking the lead it is even when I take care of my Dad more I receive more blessings yet I am female.
