He doesn't want to step on IPOB toes so they don't say he hate Igbos. U know IPOB bingos are very emotional any small attack they say u are attacking Igbos.
One Emergingnation3 even calls me Ikwere that am attacking Igbos. All because I'm attacking IPOB terrorist group.
Even when his fellow bingos do tell him Ijelespeaks is from Imo state. He will insist its Ikwere.

When Governor Wike was giving them blue black they said he was attacking Igbos where as he was attacking IPOB that killed military officers.

So Hope is avoiding them but he is still killing them. That man na conny man o

paramakina202:


What about other explosive materials found in his possession,is it for mkponala too?
People who are into mkponala are known in their communities.

KhalaKuta:
This is not bomb na,this is simply known as Egbe Eligwe,its mostly used for burials in igbo land,Oyigboupdate go to any burial ceremony,in south east you will see this things,its used as banger or knockouts

Sergio103:


So a local mkponani ( in my own dialect) manufacturer can now be willfully arrested by Nigerian Army and be tagged bomb-manufacturer and people will cheer them up.

To sane Igbos here that know what mkponani is actually...... please can mkponani kill??

Mkponani is just a pointed iron filled with nsi-egbe(gun powder)..... which when lighted creates a huge Krakatoic sound like that of a blast.

It is mostly used for burial.

The sound are as follows....

One for umuada
3 immediately the corpse must have been laid down.
2 in the evening to end burial.

Please I ask again, is mkponani now a bomb??.
We have many people manufacturing it in my hometown Agulu, so you guys will now go and arrest them??

A breach into my culture is an insult to my culture.

Igbo, sa nu anya!!

Outta here!!!!!
