DerKaiser: I've got countless pictures of your erosion-ravaged homeland. Even Somalia looks relatively picture-esque compared to your gully terrains. ![]() I've got countless newslinks describing how Igbos are caught for fraud. Not forgetting your infamous BABY FACTORIES! ![]() How many of your nephews and nieces have you sold? Gosh! Doesn't your conscience prick you?! |

TheSonOfMark: Since I have seen that you are only here to incite tribalistic innuendos, I have decided to become the bigger brother and ignore your call for tribalistic tantrums entirely. This is not an acknowledgement of defeat, in fact, this is the defeat itself because you are just too blind and myopic for me. This argument has left the trail of reason that I enjoyed to a tribalistic war! You have brought Igbo, Urhobo and now "Sapele" into this. Urhobos are peace loving people and to prove that to you, I will ignore you and leave you to your own machinations and devices. Hatred has so clouded your reasoning that I just have to pity you. Arguing with you wont solve this problem. You have proven yourself to be silly. I suggest you have an existential cogitation and look at where you are coming from. Examine your people and be more like them. AkwaCross people are not known for violence and tribalism as I have witnessed on this thread. However, I still wont judge the good people of AkwaCross because of your likes on this thread. Say no to xenophobia! Go and sin NO MORE!!! 2 Likes |

TheSonOfMark:"Litluns" or "Littluns". Kindly take that Oxford Dictionary for Kids you so cherish and flip through its pages for the correct spelling of this word you so love to use as a lexical description of your delusion of grandeur. You should know, since you claim to read CLASSICS, that delusional characters are tragic heroes who, by the curse of the gods or their own hubris and hamartia, end up losing everything they hold dear! You remind me of Macbeth, Othello, Julius Caesar, Hamlet, Faustus, and all the tragic heroes I can conjure. One thing ties all of you together, IT NEVER ENDS WELL!!! Even these tragic characters have more dignity than you do! I wont argue with you on language again because it is crystal clear, like the MEME, MEME, TEKEL, UPHARSIN, that you are a troubled lad with no grasp on language and decorum whatsoever! I would love to see those links where you defeated people, as claimed, till they cowered in submission! That is if you can even do that, because it has been established here that you are a nobody and you fear that your privacy as such should be tampered with. You have home trouble bro. You are not well. "Lexical god" indeed! Keep ranting, I'll keep putting you in your place.! 2 Likes |

princesslucy83: I beg you brother! Let's drop this issue. Too much bad blood has already been spilt. I apologise if I said something in a bag light! Efik is a member of the same linguistic cluster as Ibibio! That is all I said and all I will always say. Let's leave the other issues to those who are troubled! I know you are not. |
Re: The Dialects Of Ibibio And Where They Are Spoken by Jewelbaby01(f): 2:30pm On Nov 03, 2015 |
I want to correct something op. There is nothing like efik-ibibio or ibibio-efik, we have efik language for the efiks and Ibibio language for the ibibios. The efik language is the major language spoken in Cross River State, while Ibibio is the major language spoken in Akwa-Ibom State. Akwa-Ibom State was created out of Cross River State on the 23rd of September 1987, though the efik and Ibibio languages sound similar, there is so much difference in the pronunciations and meanings of the words. The ibibios are not efiks please, they are Akwaibomites, the efiks are the Crossriverians, take note please. And for the record, Ibibio, Anang, Eket and Oron are all one, they make up Akwaibom state which is presently the richest, neatest and finest state in Nigeria. You can hate if you want, just saying the truth as it is. ...straight face 1 Like |

I am sure you were assaulted as a young boy and consequently brainwashed into believing you are something special. I just dont have the time to analyse your syntactic and grammatical errors since this argument ensued. I'd consider using them as samples for my next academic research paper on discourse analysis.

TheSonOfMark: It is often said that a man who believes that where he comes from is devoid of things he sees in the place he visits is as blind as Adam on the first day of creation. There is no utopia or Eldorado in Nigeria! You do not know when the rain began to beat you! Do not unearth the worms in a termite's mound when you stay under the ground! This thread was meant to uplift the rich cultural complexity and linguistic peculiarity of the good AkwaCross people and you SINGLEHANDEDLY turned it into a verbal war of wits, a tribalistic cesspool and a veritable means of egotistical paranoia through your violent tantrums and delusions of grandeur. You have spoilt your own image, reputation and intellectual congruity. I used to think you were one of the sane people on Nairaland until yesterday. There was someone I handled in my earlier thread on Ijaw People, an ethnocentrically warped individual named Omonnakoda! Kindly locate him and ask him how far we went or even better, locate the thread and go through its pages!!! I am not new to people like you who think yourselves superior and special. I love to psychologically deconstruct your types as much as I do same to Okonkwo, Obi, Ezeulu, Kambili, etc in literary analyses. Afflatus scorns upon you!

TheSonOfMark: You are back for more! I am ready to shove it down your anal cavity! "So" is an adjunct in a sentence and hence it has the function of multiplicity and mobility. This means it can appear anywhere as well as be done away with entirely! I chose not to use it as a filler! "Dont" is not an error. I chose not to put the sign of contraction as much as you have done in earlier posts! It makes for a faster informal conversation. "Commenced" and "Ensued" are complementary pairs that can grammatically and semantically stand for each other. Kindly refer to sense relations and complementary distribution. In essence, NONE of the issues you raised are as glaringly enmeshed into a cesspool of grammatical deviations as yours have. A word of advice, do not attempt to perform an error analysis when you commit errors beyond redeemability! You keep making errors and when I point them, YOU SAY NOTHING ABOUT IT and attempt to digress by picking out something YOU ARE NOT USED YOU! How CLASSIC of you! I know your type. You think you are clever! I am here to debunk that to the whole world. When next you want to point out someone's errors, make sure you argue authoritatively and with proof on what makes them errors! You know NOTHING of ENGLISH LANGUAGE and I'll keep reminding you about that. Once again, you have derailed into tribal slurs and appellations which I WONT RETURN! You can keep hitting a cul-de-sac on this issue. Your scribbles remind me of a boy I once knew as my student a few years ago! He had the intellectual capacity of a fish and believes himself to be devoid of errors! Whenever I see your comments, I relish in the memories of the delusional boy. KingSlay my teeth! I have told you; you can NEVER EVER EVER beat me in ANYTHING! However, unlike you, I am not delusional! I'll keep my calm and put you in your position even if it means that this thread will end in 300 pages or more. 3 Likes |

TheSonOfMark: The English Master, I have another grammatical work for you based on your speech: "You are in position to create a thread about our history!" Tell me what is wrong with this utterance? Meanwhile, thank you for commending my dexterity. "I don't crave for friends or women like you do" Do you think I am like you? See what comes to your mind!!! A man's thought surmises his actions. You know nothing and yet claim to be king! Well, I wouldn't blame you. They say in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is KING! You really need to check those people around you! They are just too dull. They make you believe you are the best there is! Mingle more with intellectuals and learn a few things instead of ranting verbously and illogically. Once again, tell us who you are or at the very least, give us a sample of your intellectual writings and let others be the judge! You say no one knows mine. Check the first page of this thread! My name and email are there. Check my profile, my book cover is there!
