Do you know what a satellite is?

Ioannes:
you guys need to get over yourselves already. you are not the only ones to fight a war and lose.

I understand though. that was the first and only war you have ever fought so far.

when you go to war and expect your opponent to feed and clothe you, then you know that something is really wrong.

Awolowo did what he had to do. and thanks to him, his policy ended the war quickly otherwise maybe there won't even be a tribe called igbo anymore.

you guys owe him your lives, But here you are insulting him.

PPAngel:
just came back from the core north and believe me when i tell you that bokos enjoy huge support from the northern muslim populace.

they get their weapon from the haua fulani army and any officer or personnel you see being killed or attacked are selected southerner or kafurs that are set up by the nigerian haua fulani officers

gayman99:
Farouz or Farouk


My guy Farouk don suffer. He is now a container for explosives.

winniz:
This mischevious Yoruba OP again with their divide and rule amongst Igbos. Only you useless Yoruba posting with Spanishkid, thiagoneves and mulattoclaro on this thread.

Ihuomadinihu:
Lol,this is interesting. Now, take a look at some of these Southern Igbo communities and tell me who they are mixed with.
Owerri, Isiukwuato, Ishiagu, Ozu item and ihiagwa. Ngwa....

ozodigboo:
MY FRIEND, STOP DISPLAYING CRASS ST**PIDITY HERE.
nobody is saying that he's not the most well-known igbo chief in the minds of nigerians.
any non - igbo will mention his name first before others..
don't compare him with emir of kano or ooni etc.
Those regions have always had kings, rulers etc......that's why the europeans loved them.....they were easier for them to govern.
Igbos never had kings....That's why Onitsha has never claimed to be igbo....they claim allegiance to the Oba of Benin.
Get your facts right pls.

Mortiple:
Everyone hold your peace!

It is a fact that most of these people claiming to have "most influential kings" are not proper Igbos in real sense.

Onitshas are hybrid Igbos whose ancestry is traceable to Benin; a fact that have never been disputed or refuted. They are even more comfortable identifying with Benins than Igbos. For the avoidance of doubt why is he called Agbogidi? What does that mean in Igbo?

As for Nri stock, facts are beginning to emerge that they have Igala ancestory. They have been smart to deceive the authentic Igbos with their concocted history of ERI and GAD.

I strongly believe that "Igbo enweghi Eze". I make bold to say that most of you making claims of superiority of your king over others ARE NOT NDIGBO. You either ORU (hybreed) or MBIARA-ABIA (migrants).

pazienza:
Lol! Okwa unu afugo.

OdenigboAroli:
Lmao.....A true Onicha man mentality.
I tried to be a different person and be nice to these cowards who were chased away from Bini all the way to my father's land and we being our reasonable and peaceful people accepted your weak forefathers and blessed you with our beautiful culture.....Ofala,Igba Odu,Nze na Ozo. Nigga,Onicha man got western education first because of their location and used it to steal peoples land....When Akum Nweze Odogwu,Igwe Umuoji was still alive Ofala Okagbue can't break kola in his presence. You talk about trade but your people are not known traders nor blacksmiths....Just peasant farmers. Nothing special about you and your people....Flavour nabania ffucked your Igwes daughter and gave her baby and dumped her and he'll didn't let lose....An Onicha chic once wanted to be my second wife but I am not interested in polygamy. You need to shut d ffuck up and hide your face....A common Bini a.ss licker like you shouldn't speak when I speak,eediot! You borrowed everything you have today from land to culture to education and I bet your Igwe Achebe knows how to be humble before Anambrarians. I have never met an Onicha man who will disrespect me.....Look at this weak a.ss punk!!

ray78:
Typical hinterland igbo behaviour.Every time "ndigbo enwero eze,ndigbo enwero eze".Do you think Onitshans wanted to identify as igbo in the first place?precolonially, igbos without kings were at the bottom of the social hierarchy among tribes in the south,all they were good for was farmwork and thats why they were mostly sold as slaves by the Ijaw and Efiks.Onitshans got their social exposure from the great Benin Empire,which was majestic and very prestigious centuries back and hence with that kind of pride,they were condescending towards igbos-who could not properly organize themselves socially.Onitshan,Aniomas,Aros also grew wealthy from coastal trade in the past and had started wearing clothes when you bush igbo people were still running around naked with your änyi enwero eze" trope.The Akwa-Ocha cloth has been worn for centuries.Not that clownish Isi Agu atture!
Till date,the Enu Onitsha man wiil prefer his daughter not to marry from interior igboland but rather from Onitsha westwards(Anioma,Benin,Nigerdelta,Yoruba or even Igala)
Igbos and unnecessary pride......ordinary respect a grand King is hard,and you expect to produce the President of Nigeria?When you cant organize yourselves socially.Jokers

chino11:
I don't have time to read your jargons. Obi of Onitsha is the most influential and most powerful KING in Igboland. Onitsha is the oldest city in Igboland. That was the place Ajayi Crowther, Sanders brothers, Mongo Park etc first visited on arriving in this part of the world. Crowther was at the time resident in Onitsha when he was propagating the word of GOD through CMS.

Eze Nri is understandably the custodian of Igbo culture but all those other kings you mentioned are inconsequential village heads and elders.

Igwe Orizu of Nnewi is equally very powerful.

Ujulabelle:
Do u think Emir of Kano is more powerful than Sultan of Sokoto or Gwandu? I think u don't have full cognisance of English language because if u do, u will understand d meaning of "custodian". Obi of Onitsha might be influential but he isn't d custodian of Igbo culture. Onitsha isn't Igbo according to history. They migrated to Igboland. How then will a stranger who ccame from Delta area be a custodian of a culture that had existed b4 he came? Even Onitsha ppl can testify to dat bcs dey still claim they are not Igbo. Don't derogate Igbo heritage. Hence, I will unmask ur venomous derogary remark. Igbo may not hv kings b4 colonialism doesn't mean they don't h strong political n administrative system. Shalom

chino11:
Ranting of a dunce.

Obi of Onitsha is the most influential and most powerful KING in Igboland. His dynasty is over 500yrs which makes Onitsha the oldest city after Lagos, because Ajayi Crowther berthed in Onitsha. Accept these FACT or go and kill yourself. Choose one

Shymm3x:
Very smart move by China.

But the timing though. Russia is challenging the US' military hegemony, while China decided to come from the blindside to challenge the economic hegemony of the dollar.

Scary times ahead and it is only a matter of time before someone goes bonkers and turn it into a gunfight lool.

adysade:
Land should be provided for grazing.Any herdsman caught outside the grazing zone should forfeit his flock to the government.

Musiwa419:
Where is that loudmouthed igbo dunce, Prof Chidi Odinkalu, the chairman of NHRC ? That slowpoke called FFK a tribalist and said that the Fulani herdsmen can rear their cattles anywhere in Nigeria.

Fulani herdsmen are tse-tse flies and Igbos are leeches. Both tribes need to be fumigated and done are away with so that Nigeria can become a better place

By Abiodun Kuforiji Nkwocha

What would you say if I told you that between last year and this year an estimated 11,000 people have been killed in Plateau State, mainly in Berom communities? What if I told you that over 40 villages have been sacked and some wiped out completely in Berom communities alone? If you were Nigerian you would try to correct me and say that I am probably talking about North East and not the North Central. You would be wrong. What if I told you that 11,000 is a conservative number?
What if I asked you to station yourself at any mortuary and count the number of corpses that come in every single day from gun and machete injuries from the hands of armed Fulani men sometimes in cohorts with security agencies? Even if you were able to count the victims, I would ask you of the ones that are missing. I would ask of the bodies thrown in the wells. I would ask of hastily prepared same day burials because it is easier to bury the people today than to keep them and add the corpses of the next day to them. You would then ask me why? I would ask you what you have heard. You would tell me that you heard that the Berom people are cattle rustlers.
Plateau protest, I would ask you how an 18 month old baby could rustle cattle. I would ask you how a 6 month old foetus even knew about cattle. I would ask you how whole communities collide and steal cattle. I will ask you how many cows are worth 11,000 lives. I would ask you how hundreds of thousands of people have had to flee their ancestral lands, farms and houses because they have been condemned to die for allegedly rustling cattle. I would ask you whether the wages of cattle rustling is death. Then you would wonder with me why cows only get rustled in Plateau. When places like Bauchi and Southern Kaduna and even in some parts of Gana Wuri in Plateau have more cattle than Berom land but have not witnessed the pogrom on the scale that Beroms have witnessed. Then you would be puzzled and ask me what was so special about the rustling in Berom land. I would laugh and ask you to sit down.
I will tell you of land rich from the top to the bottom. I will tell you of the unmined lands of tin rich Kuru. I would tell you of the columbite in Bisichi. I would tell you about Gasish, Rim, Foron, Vat and so many other mineral rich areas. I would tell you about the Chinese with bags of money and determination to evade tax. I will tell you about the Hausas that sell minerals to the Chinese men. I will tell you about the Beroms that have been terrorized out of their land. I will tell you of exaggerated tales of rustling. I will tell you of isolated Berom youths in collision with Fulani youth. I will tell you of Fulani who have discovered that mining makes faster and easier money than herding. I will tell you of Fulani women who no longer carry calabashes with Fura da nono on their heads. I will tell of Fulani women that carry large pans filled with earth. Berom earth that is full of Tin, Columbite, Tantalite, Wolframite. You would need to sell hundreds of calabashes to buy a gun.
But a pan filled with earth, keeps the men armed. I will tell you of a decline in cattle rearing that started since the 80s with education and when Fulanis started embracing dry season farming. I will tell you of hectares and hectares of land lying fallow. For their husband men are missing, fleeing, dying or dead. I will tell you about empty huts and houses. I will tell you about burnt settlements. I will tell you about the new owners. You would then ask me about government protection. I will tell you of a politics that looks away from the plight of dying people. I will tell you of compromised lawmakers, chiefs and kings. I will tell you of the rich that have shut their ears because the harrowing cries of the raped interrupt them as they count their gold coins. I will tell you about angry Berom youths who avenged senselessly the senseless deaths they have witnessed. You could ask me why the media keeps quiet. I would tell you the rat dances to the tune of the piper.
You will see reason with me and then you will cry with me. You will agree with me that it is not just a war. It is genocide. And the spoils are beneath our feet. source www.africanfreepress.com/?p=6033 for rmore stories

Am proud to hear another African guy, with African blood pumping in their veins. Man, am not nigerian but I kno if there is one country that can raise up,to lead and unite us under the BANTU banner, it's only Nigeria (they have the cultural authenticity to do it!) Africans they respect them, even UN has written article about the presence of nigerian soldiers in the African peace keeping missions and their ability to reconcile aggression amongst AFRICANS.

In my own travels, I observed areas where Africans lived alongside Nigerians, we kept our own unique African identity and culture and often were quite revered for being the symbol of flamboyance and swagger. But in areas where Africans lived in the absence of Nigerians, we were treated simply as peasants who were deprived of the most valuable asset in life, an IDENTITY.

So I grew to respect nigerians but I know amongst you there those who hate that state, well hate the southern people they think of themselves as beautiful wat not! They are these hausa LOOSERS u speak of, they realy look down at black people and look upto ARABS, it made me sick to be around such a disorientated AFRICAN man, how can u hate wat u are and love SUMTHING ur not! I DDNT get it. BUT if there is ever a war between the southern and The northern Nigerians, I have told myself whatever position of power I will hold. I will do do my best to assist the south. Because they are real black people U can trust.
