Mom007:
You went to a calabar woman's restaurant and ordered rice? Not really their strong suit you know... undecided They are known for their soups though this ones sound ridiculously overpriced. If you want great rice meals, our mothers from the west have that on lockdown!
Hilda is NOT a Calabar girl. She is an Ibibio girl from Akwa Ibom State.

Calabar is the capital of Cross Rivers State.

Yeah, the Yoruba-style party jollof rice and fried rice have got it going on. wink

So I went to see my gurl Hilda Baci to see what she got cooking. had to empty the bank akant just to bring yall this content. the place is alright, the AC is very strong, its small and cute.

The food prices? A bit on the high side for like swallow eaters like soup starts from 5000 naira. Just the soup alone without the meat and swallow. the rice i bought is 1500, the fish 2000 and malt is 400 for a total of 3900 naira. the food was straight up garbage. TAsted horrible. I could only stomach half of it till i abandoned the rest. I give it a solid 3 out of 10.

The positives are the AC is very cold and the malt was very cold. would i go back ? nope
"My Food by Hilda." Sukkot the Godfather was here... N3900 pere! grin

the delta north tribes. ... Ikas, aniochas, aren't Igbo. the ikas and urhobos are from Benin. Obis of agbor(Ika) and Onichcha-ugbo( aniocha) report and updates to the oba of Benin, just like the obi of agbor(Ika) does.the ndokwas are migrants partly from igbo. Funny enough, the urhobos are from benin too, during the egbeka and ogiso dynasty. The ukwuanis, oshimilis are extensions from both Ika and Igbo's, asaba/OKpanam (oshimili) people came from union of a woman named diaba from a trader from kogi named onojobo, a prince from igala land, kogi, and a woman, Diaba, a court maid in Eze,anyanwus court in Anambra., from agbakuba village, njete, anambra state and gave birth to nnebisi, which means mother is supreme.
but because of geographical proximity. Igbo's from east want to lay claim to both for their selfish expansionist reasons. It should be noted that none of their kings report to the obi of onitsha. These irredentists will not want to hear this truth spoken in their faces even if they know this on their subconscious mind. If igala/kogi who are the supposed rightful ancestors begin to lay claim to asaba and environs like the way Igbo's are wrongly attempting, they will not want it. If kano were to be geographically close to east, just like delta, Igbo's/ipob would have claimed it as a part of Igbo land, considering their very large numbers in Sabon- Gari
Very insightful @Creamypie.

Thanks for you feedback. It further reinforces what I know.

Indeed the Igala influence in Anioma and even in the Anambra and Northern Enugu areas are well documented. Ebu, Illah, Asaba, Okpanam, Onitsha, etc, are clearly Igala-associated communities.
Remember that I posted that the Obi of Onitsha said in that documentary that it was the Igala boat men that took his ancestors across the River Niger in boats to Onitsha.

Historical records also show that Igala were the first occupants of what is now Onitsha before other migrants came in and they constitute part of the 8 quarters in Onitsha.

Even the red chieftaincy caps were introduced by Igalas into the Nsukka area from where it was copied by the aboriginal Ibo subgroups in the South East.

I affirm that Delta North is too mixed with descendants of Bini-Edo, Esan-Edo, Igala, Yoruba (i.e., the Olukumis of Ugbodu and Ukwu Nzu towns, located near Onicha Ugbo and Issele Uku in Aniocha North LGA), Urhobo, Nri (Ibo), to be classified as a pure Ibo area and the secessionists from the core South East have no right to bring their ramblings into Asaba or nearby towns in Delta North.

All the best.

Imagine marrying someone who fights you cos you called him Ode. grin
Objection!

Ode is NOT a pleasant word to say to a man you are in a long-term relationship with depending on the tone of voice used by the female spouse and vice versa. It's rather insidious and can lead to a collapse of the marriage.

On the other hand, ode or the English translation called "fool/stupid" can be used in a jocular way though based on how you say it, and both of you can engage in a pillow fight and tickle each other as part of some pre-intimacy rituals, but this should not be overused because most men have a healthy ego.

No the edible one. Called nzu in igbo language

I had some sort of pica due to moderate anemia the pregnancy caused (moderate anemia is pretty normal during pregnancy) but I was always weak and couldn’t keep up my energy. So I had to take in extra iron supplement. The clay is a good source of it. Many pregnant women without realizing it usually crave the nutrient their body is missing.

Regular iron supplements from the pharmacy usually cause more nausea and gastrointestinal distress. I couldn’t stand those iron pills.
Oh, wow! That's interesting.
So, you ate "Ukwu Nzu"... Lol
You must be referring to kaolin.

By the way, Ukwu Nzu (OR called by the original Yoruba name, Eko Afun, which means white chalk) is an Olukumi town (which was first established centuries ago by Yoruba trading migrants and warriors who arrived in waves from Yorubaland via the Bini kingdom and Esanland) in Aniocha North LGA of Delta State that has deposits of a white chalky substance that has been mined by the natives for some centuries now.

Tbh, the cravings you women have during pregnancies is on another level.
It just blows my mind away anytime I read about the inconceivable things you folks crave for. A woman even said she had strong cravings for the smell and taste of wet sand!

delta isn't Igbo. U are ignorant here. Asaba is a different tribe and dialect, same way illaje,itshekiri aren't Yoruba, but speak similar dialect.ikas, unkwuanis, ndokwas aren't Igbo, but broke off from Benin. Can IG is claim ikwere in p.h as Igbo?
Hello @Creamypie,

Are you originally an indigene of Asaba? I want a feedback from you so as to clear some things up here.

The Ibo secessionists have been insisting on their propaganda sites and even here on NL since the early 2000s that Asaba, Okpanam, and other Anioma towns especially in Aniocha, Ndokwa and Oshimili will be part of the so-called "biafra."

It seems like some Oshimili folks in Anioma are beginning to identify as Ibo. If you are from Asaba, can you let me know the feeling of folk in that area on this. I know that Asaba is originally made up of descendants of
Igala, Edo, and Nteje migrants. This is the reason why you have Bini-Edo words such as Ogbes or family compounds in Asaba and some other Anioma towns based on the Bini-Edo settlements there centuries back. I have read all these in history books over the last 30 years now.

Even in Onitsha, the Obi of Onitsha said it was the Igalas that took his ancestors by boat for the first time about 500 years ago as they migrated from the Idu area near Benin city. He also said in that Ofala Festival documentary that he has Bini, Igala, and Ibo ancestral bloodlines.

Last but not least, Ilajes are for a FACT full-blooded Yorubas who migrated from Ile-Ife centuries back. A branch of the Ilajes from the oil-rich Ugbo kingdom migrated over 500 years ago to what is now Delta State (They founded Ugborodo formerly called Escravos) and constitute one of the 4 major branches of the Itsekiris. (The Ilajes, Ifes, Ijebus, and Bini-Edo migration by Prince Ginuwa to Ode-Itsekiri which is originally an Ijebu settlement all constitute the 4 major migrant branches of Itsekiris).

these pipo wan try sell d ipob stuff to we Deltans, cos of our close proximity to east, and d fact that Igbo's are relocating in large numbers to delta and surrounding southern states....since IPOb/ESN/u g.m started in d east. They have this unhealthy irredentist attitude in them.one woman was making a call, saying asaba is almost as good as no man's land. Thats how they start. They think anywhere Igbo's settle is Igbo land, which is = Biafra land, so that the criminals using it as cover can extend their criminality of kidnappings, robberies, human organ harvesting, and assassination in d south. Many igbo Big men with their families no longer go home, even at the year ending, even when there's family meeting, they send representative and make and fulfil all their financial obligations as required in the meeting from their base outside Igbo land. I thank God Gowon divided south from east. otherwise, we from south for no dey exist again

Politics › Re: How Ipob Used Disinformation To Promote Obi Pandora In 2023 Elections by XAUBulls: 9:25pm On May 26, 2023
Exclusive101:
During the just-concluded elections, politicians and their supporters used social media to manipulate public opinion, either by deliberately spreading false information or misrepresenting information to suit certain narratives.

Most times, they either spread fake news about candidates and their parties or manipulate discussions and existing data to earn support and sympathy for their favourites.

A viral post claimed that Ayo Adebanjo, leader of Afenifere, a Yoruba socio-political group, said the Igbos should be allowed to secede if Nigerians do not want an Igbo man to rule the country.

“Nigerians want Peter Obi to be their president by voting for him. If INEC dares to rig the election, Nigerians should protest seriously for international communities to intervene. If you don’t want Igboman to rule Nigeria, then allow them go with Biafra,” reads the quote attributed to Ayo Adebanjo.

The post was shared by one Igbo History on Twitter. It garnered 1.9k likes, 481 comments and was shared 387 times.

This post was amplified by 29 Facebook pages using copy-pasting techniques and sharing the same images. These accounts are part of a network of accounts that share IPOB propaganda and disinformation.

On Twitter, this post claim was first shared by an account, @UmuezeokaTV

Findings by TheCable showed that there was no mention of the venue or date where the elder statesman made the remark. No credible news medium in the country also reported the claim

On January 22, an account named @UzomaPreciousF1(archive) claimed that Omoyele Sowore, presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), said every other presidential candidate ignores him whenever they see him, but Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), always greets him.

“Whenever other presidential candidates see me, they will ignore me as nobody because I have no money. Peter Obi always walks to me to greet me anytime he sees me. Even though he is my opponent, I will not deny the fact that he is a humble man. – Omoyele Sowore,” the quote claimed.

The account said Obi’s action shows that he is a humble man.

The post has over 151,000 views, 1,302 retweets, and 5,297 likes.

This claim was amplified by a network of accounts with 9 Twitter accounts sharing original content and 1443 accounts retweeting the content. Of the 9 accounts, 3 were created in 2022. Though the post by @UzomaPreciousF1 went viral, the claim was first shared by an account named, @Thenewage101 as a reply to a tweet by Reno Omokri. The account, @UzomaPreciousF1, was created in June 2021. The other 9 accounts that shared the original content used copy-pasting techniques to amplify the claim

Investing in the financial markets is still one of the best ways out sans cryptocurrencies which majorly have NO fundamentals backing them up. You may wish to look into "copy trading" in the currency markets when you have significant funds again. You have peace of mind through the automated copying of the trades of professional traders for a percentage of your capital or principal monthly from Share4you and more. Do your due diligence by reading reviews on each social trading platform.
