No, they're not different. Odogun is a chief in charge of warfare in ancient Edo empire. The title still exist in several kingdoms that made up the ancient Edo empire and as you might already known - some of these kingdoms have relationship with the Igbos of the South East.

Please stop creating confusion. Odogun is different from Odogwu. The word trending today is Odogwu (Igbo), not Odogun.

ehikwe22:

Odogwu is from the Edo word - Edogun/Odogun.

Odogun is one of the most powerful olotu in my community in Delta.

Igbos popularized it no doubt

Odogwu is an Igbo word. Odogun is different from Odogwu. The W and N make the difference

Whiteangel1234:


Contemporary usage means * A Great Or Successful Man *

Correct. You sabi.

How did you reach your conclusion?

So na so una dey use arrive at una Aba made statistics, we don catch una

You go explain Taya. Go to court.

Whiteangel1234:
Odogwu means a Warrior Masquerade

Lol. That may be the original meaning. But that is not the meaning of the word being globalized in 2023

The most popular African word in the world today happens to be an Igbo word: Odogwu. Do you know what that word means?

I hear it among Kenyans, South Africans, Ghanaians, Cameroonians, and all across Africa, the US, Canada, and Europe

Stop supporting nonsense.Anambra state government could have hired indigenes only without announcing it to the whole world.
After Soludo will be mocking the masses of playing nzogbu nzogbu politics while he himself lacks diplomacy and common sense.

Thank you.

There is no discrimination here. Its like someone from Ghana saying that the federal government of Nigeria is discriminating against ECOWAS by not throwing up their job applications to all? Does federal government owe Ghana anything?

So why would Anambra State owe Abia, Kano or Ogun?

If Nigerians feel that states should practice federal character, they should change the constitution. But until then, Anambra State government owes nobody from outside the state nothing

There are non Anambra indigenes from all over Nigeria living in Anambra. When you can't let them apply for, let alone hire them into, the state Civil service, it is a problem.

Tinubu will just be fighting and arresting and jailing other drug traffickers so that he will become the monopoly holder for drug trafficking.😀😀😀

When Tinubu, a well known Chicago drug trafficker, leads war on drug trafficking you know the world is coming to an end.

Very funny character

Goodvibes007:

One of the many reasons why alot of us rejected Peter Obi.

But Tinubu is doing the same thing now. Lagos as a State did the same thing to the poster. Lagos as a State discriminated against Igbo voters. This is not an Obi or Tinubu or Buhari problem. It is a Nigerian problem

MS247:


Thanks I am a tribes man who love my people and Yoruba national ethnicity dearly

It's your business been a republican lovin' lords Lugards creation more than your own Ethnicity ingrained in your DNA, because of colonial brainwashing

Oga shift.

gidgiddy:



It is the prerogative of State government to hire who they like. Its not at State level that you cone to practice federal character, thats federal level

It could be that Kano wanted to attract the best and threw the application up for all. It could be that Anambra wanted its own people for the job

The point here is that it is Anambra State governments prerogative to hire from wherever they want to and it should not be an issue. Some State governments even hire from abroad

Its not at state level you practice federal character

You are not making sense. Anambra can hire only Anambra, of course. But why do you limit applicants to only Anambra when you can save yourself of being accused of discrimination by throwing the process open but behind the scene do what you like?

MS247:


Personally I don't care if Ibos hire only Ibo in their civil service, or Anambra sacks non indegene

My ruse is trying to hypocritically argue how Lagos run its own civil service

You are definitely a tribalistic champion. Can't be discussing with you.

MS247:



When an Ibo man criticize you for something, be 100% sure he is guilty of that he is blaming you and just trying to use you to boost his ego

The North is accusing Tinubu of nepotism. They are correct. But Buhari did same thing Tinubu is doing now and the North was happy with it. Stop bringing Igbo into this Nigeria-wide problem of discrimination. The article focused on Anambra that was dumb enough to do it openly.

KnowAll:
.

The advert is an Afront to other Igbo’s from neighbouring states let alone Nigerians.

Discrimination happens everywhere in NG. Tinubu is doing it big time as we speak. But unlike Anambra others are smart enough to make things open and still do what they want behind the scene. Anambra was very dumb in this case.

Copied (not mine):
Anambra people seem to need a lesson on diplomacy and political correctness. A medical doctors advertisement from Anambra govt says only Anambra indigenes are eligible to apply. Another medical job advertisement from Kano says open to all applicants. Now, you wonder why in 2023 a highly professional position is being restricted to a particular locality. Even if Soludo and company prefer to hire only from Anambra, the diplomatic or politically correct thing would be to accept all applications but invite only Anambra applicants for interview. No one would know what they did because they can always claim they invited the best candidates. I'm sure the advertised Kano jobs will eventually be filled by Kano indigenes or other Muslims from the North. But no one can accuse Kano here of open discrimination.

There is no need openly discriminating against others in 2023. This is not so different from the recent electoral discrimination against Igbos in Lagos.

Many years ago when I was stlll in Nigeria I had applied for a federal government job in Lagos. The project was allocated to each state. I managed to meet with the Director of the agency in Ikeja through a contact. After a brief discussion he told me to apply for the job in my own state. But I lived in Lagos, not Abia. I was not hired for that position. But at least I was allowed to apply.

Discrimination is a problem in Nigeria. Sometimes, it is same people discriminating against themselves, worse so, openly. This must stop.

Watch from time 2 minutes and 45 seconds. Palliative rice wahala in an APC State in Northern Nigeria. Like North like SW.
