theTranslator: 1. It was better undoubtedly but the system was exploited e.g. Oyo empire 2. Your point is false the women were equally represented in the democracy you had the: Umunna ( Male ) Umuada ( Female ) And another one for the children and youths that i've forgotten the name of but essentially everybody was represented and voted democratically by the village people and don't even bring that Eze nonsense because Eze isn't a kingship title or monarchial but a priesthood system rather 3. The Igbos did have large states e.g. Nri Kingdom, Aboh, Kingdom and Aro Kingdom were all large polities and not based at clan level as you wrongly claimed 4. I'll just ignore that one doesn't even begin to make sense how is it a lack of modernization please elaborate |

Torture2020: So this guy has a brain after all. I see that long exposure to advanced civilizations like Kenya and South Africa has done much good for you. Such a shame that your fellow countrymen haven't changed a single bit even after all this time. But if a cognitively challenged fella like you was able to change, I believe that your brother's will do so too. |

Let talk ShopRite as an example Shoprite The Group’s original and flagship brand and the biggest food retailer in Africa-> Angola, Botswana, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ghana, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, South Africa, Eswatini, Zambia It has exited Angola, Ghana, Uganda, Tanzania, Nigeria, Kenya So basically you're now regional force - dominating landlocked zambia, malawi, zim - in addition to tiny ones Botswana, Namibia, Lesotho and Swaziland. I believe Kenya companies can expand and give south african firms competition in zambia, malawi and zimbwabwe- there are few who already there. AfriqueDuZuid: 1 Like |

Abohboy:1. I'll chose the Oyo empire over the present demoncrazy anytime anyday 2. historical books say something else. even Chinua Achebe's book say something else women were not equal to men in precolonial Igboland and you know that well and osu and ohu is still functional till now plus why do women have to drink her dead husband's corpse water? why was there and still is female disinheritance? 3.im talking mostly most were clan level those aren't even large kingdoms Oyo alone was bigger than all of them combined 4.for modernisation to occur. an amount of monarchy is a must in those days no monarchy only brings disunity and chaos 1 Like |

Financial and Intermediation Kenyan-owned Octagon Africa has bought a 49 percent stake in a pensions business formerly operated in Zambia by Alexander Forbes Financial Services. Octagon Africa Group chief executive Fred Waswa said the investment is the culmination of a collaboration with the Johannesburg-listed firm, which started with the Kenyan company opening its representative office in Lusaka last February. “We have had a team there (Lusaka) familiarising our Zambia team with our company culture while creating a new learning platform that will guide the formulation of future products for our various markets,” he said. |

theTranslator: 1. Oyo empire where the Oyo Mesi could take control and depose of the Alaafin whenever they wanted? And a great example is near the collapse of the Oyo empire where 9 Alaafins were forced to commit the ritual suicide because the despotic Bashorun Gaa wanted to become the Alaafin that's the system you want? 2.Women may not have been equal but they still had a voice and they still had rights there were even women that could be admitted into the Umunna if they were influential enough in the community, a woman could become a massive land owner and even a chief in the village if she works hard to build her wealth and the same applies to Yoruba society so that point doesn't really matter. The Osu and Ohu system is and was horrible and i'm still trying to learn the rational behind it but it allegedly wasn't practiced in Nri where they accepted all no matter the race, language, or any other sins committed as long as they followed the rules of the kingdom. 3. There's a reason why they were called kingdoms and why Oyo was called an empire and yes it was much larger but what exactly is your point? You said they were at clan level mostly and I just told you that they had kingdoms that spanned the whole of Abia to parts of southern enugu and parts of anambra state ( Aro Kingdom ). Other kingdoms stretched from the Niger River at Aboh all the way down to Brass ( Aboh Kingdom ) and others occupied the whole of central and northern Anambra, and parts of Enugu and Imo ( Nri ) for the most part they were organized into kingdoms it was only in very sparse and small areas where they were actually independent and worked at clan or village level 4. That's false the Igbos were modernized they had houses, canoes, iron working, brass working, clay working, indigenous scripts ( Apart from Nsibidi such as the Aniocha script ) and they even had whole barns made for yams and they were built in a row by row manner to hang each yam in it's own section and in order of freshest to the least fresh so your point of the need for monarchy for there to be modernization at the time was just stupid |

KCB 5 MIN READ NAIROBI (Reuters) - Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) KCB.NR, the country's biggest lender by assets, plans to move into Zambia and Ethiopia and could consider acquisitions in its continental expansion plans, its chief executive said. Ranked first in east Africa’s biggest economy with assets of $3 billion, KCB has operations in Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda and South Sudan and has already said Burundi and the Democratic Republic of Congo are in its sights in the short-term. “Burundi and DRC are countries that are very much in our short-term horizon ... looking at 2011 and 2012 we will begin to see where next in terms of our expansion program,” Martin Oduor-Otieno said in Nairobi on Tuesday at the Reuters Africa investment summit. Normally KCB uses nations where it already operates as a springboard into neighboring countries and therefore Zambia and Ethiopia, when that country opens its banking sector to international competition, will be next on the list, Oduor-Otieno said. “It is a matter of time, it is a matter of what models we will use to get there. Traditionally we have gone through the green fields model where we have set up from scratch,” he said. 1 Like |

And kenya expansion is not just one firm or two - we sweeping it completely - in all sectors - like Somalis are currently sweeping South Africa. The next thing you know all petrol stations are owned by Somalis all the eateries; name it. You better embrace Somalis and make them South Africans like you did Indians. They are very good businessmen. Embrace and learn from them...like we did in Kenya. Why attack people who generally dont engage in any crime? They are not typical west african or tanzanians drug peddlers..they are traders. AfriqueDuZuid: 1 Like |
