OPCNAIRALAND:
How should I refer to Igbo in Yorubaland when in Igboland an Anambra is a foreigner in Enugu and an Ebonyi is a foreigner in Anambra?

asha90:
General, I didn't say there are none but it is one in a million..

My uncle married a Kalabari woman way back in the eighties in London but he did not come back to Nigeria until their children were 8 and 10. Then afterwards the family let it slide because the deed has been done.

asha90:
Don't misunderstand me but there are still people marrying outsiders but it's just one in a million.

RickyTan:


Afonja just face your master.
And FYI - Lagos Is A no man's land

iKarma:


Lol and you're so proud of this archaic tradition. That's why Ibo girls are marrying Yoruba men to escape such culture.

Kachisbarbie:


Lols.
You know them very well,not all though...I don't know what will be my reaction if my daughter brings home an Anambra man .

Cc: Cfcman

Donbiggi:
Were am from, we don't kill dat fuckin creature

radiokilla:
You don't kill a Python in my village and if you do that by mistake you are to give it a befitting burial. The Python in some communities in Anambra is quite different from the one you see in Lagos or elsewhere.

They are innocuous and I have seen one come closer when a woman spoke the local dialect to it. So why kill them for meat. Nigerians need to forsake this kill and eat mentality. The other day they killed a whale in ondo.

Even the goat which we kill and eat for fun is a celebrity overseas. I tire for naija sef.

mrphysics:
are u from Okposi in Ohaozara?

iKarma:


See this one. Enugu is no mans land

Kachisbarbie:

You people should change that your mentality,it is badddd.
Imagine you saying it is deadly...blablabla,in this 2016?
Oriegwu o!

asha90:
It's not about being proud or archaic but about what we believe and it has been protecting us. Even in the Bible a particular tribe was asked not to take a wife from another. Just like in the case of Samsom and Delilah, he was asked not to marry from Philistine and he did and faced the consequences thereafter. Anambra people have their value system which makes them take marriage as a serious matter. It is more or less Biblical than archaic..

wristbangle:




Lol u dey fear? Are u from Imo or Abia? Na these igbos I like pass

Not like I am scared o, they keep on claiming they have 'royal blood' and it mustn't mix with 'outsiders'. They are very industrious though, I give them kudos for that.
I'm from Abia State .

asha90:
I am just being point blank with you on how we see marriage. Yes, in some cases it could be deadly if the girl forces herself into the family. If you do not believe go and watch Nollywood. You called it mentality, we call it value system. It is working for us..

RickyTan:

7 million plus Igbos in Lagos.

some people might neglect it but this is just the truth.
my place we dont kill green snakes, if u eventually do, its either yoi giv it a befitting burial or u face the calamity that comes with it

i could remember my childhood days when we visit for xmas, if we go swimming they do play with snakes, putting it on ur neck, throwing it at some one one putting it inside ur panties and it will crawl out..

In the bible, satan came in the form of snake. Today, you're worshipping snakes.

Don't pick and choose your bible verses.

Anambra men will soon end up marrying themselves the way Ibo girls are marrying Yoruba and NDeltans.

asha90:
Nobody worships the snake. The truth is that those Pythons are harmless and walks around people without hurting them. We have more than enough girl here to go round while we give out the 3rd eleven to outsiders to manage

Aroh48:
playing with snakes? Are you human?

ok




But does green snakes attack foreigners in your place at first sight?

Sayelabola:



But does green snakes attack foreigners in your place at first sight?

NO. just the stuff that happens when snake bite people, like mistakenly matching on it or you ran into a snake..
remember snakes normally goes for attack first when they sense danger.. ir feel uncomfortable .. thats just their nature.


Because that might warrant the foreigner(s) to fight for his life.

Sayelabola:

move around with a locals if u want to visit streams or bushes .
if the person mistakenly kills one, the person should notify the locals at once.

Sayelabola:


And I hope there is an aforewarning to all foreigners touring "your place"?

NO. the lecturing is left for the persons host

iKarma:


You give out your girls to marry? Are your women not free enough to make their own choices?

Can they at least inherit now?

Calling other Ibos foreigners because of snakey snakey........ No be worship be that? Like Indians who worship cows.

iKarma:


Just 7 million? Do a recount. 1 Hausa in Enugu, that's enough to make it a no mans land lol.

RickyTan:


Bros - Reality is Reality.
You may not like the reality but that is your problem

asha90:
Nobody called anyone a foreigner. It was the reporter who did that to draw traffic to their site.

RickyTan:

Yes I like the reality of Enugu

murphyibiam15:

let Anambra with their smallest land mass after Lagos form their B!iafra....Ebonyi people are not interested....same reason Ebonyi people voted against regionalism in 2014 national conference bc we dont want any same government with those ed!otic tribalists...
