You're the real dumb skull here.
I expected you to read my post again, and if u still have up 10mb space remaining on your empty brain, you'll notice that I'm only giving him some business advice and and not being tribally sentimental..
It's only a dumb skull that will support a dumb president ( I'm referring to ur Monika).
So kindly look in the mirror, you'll see the real dumb ass. Idiot.
typical IPOB tout. always rude and insulting.
get education cos it helps a lot since majority of your brothers are uneducated, reason why your region still remains backwards till date

He's not a crowned king alaye, more like the chairman of a particular tribe union in a town, not even a state.
Remember, your king was also removed and sent on exile to another land some years ago in that state due to his agbero behaviour and stubbornness.

Again, it's the same stubbornness that made your kings in a neighboring state to fight themselves in a peace meeting. One even boasted he beat up the other.
Who said he’s a king. He’s your representative there who went all put chestbeating in the palace. He was flogged mercilessly and still returned to the palace to prostrate grin grin. Chest beating won’t take you anywhere. Una no dey hear word

It’s a big shame you’re tribalist. Do you know I had good intentions to ask about your quotation. I’ve been trying to get someone to publish my book on Amazon for a long time now, especially the cover page design.

But seeing your attitude has changed my mind. I would look for someone else. If you can bring such acute tribalism to an innocent culture thread such as this, who knows what you’ll do to my book before it gets out.

I’m an Igbo and would you expect my patronage when you openly detest my ethnic group.

Jamaica?They are no longer from Jerusalem again according to Nnamdi Kanu?

Your hatred for that Igbo tribe is making you terribly stupid.
Is the thread all about the origin of the Igbos or the Igbos in Jamaica via slave trade.

Stop making urslf look so stupid to all even if you are convinced that you are damn stupid.

Igbo and their desperation to dominate and lay claim to every good thing albiet through dubious mean. The evidence provided in the Jamaica claim isn't rich enough to validate Igbo ancestry. The few similarity in pronunciation can't be divorced from coincidence. Such coincidence exist in many language. When it comes to pread of influence to remote region of the world, Yoruba are unrivaled. The evidence is so glaring that an unadulterated Yoruba is still being spoken by a large section of Brazio, Cuba and some South American country. Even the culture are still retained in their original form. Yoruba gods and diety are also identified in these region. You see them worship Obatala, Sango, Yemoja etc
Open up a thread for that purpose. This thread is about the Igbo heritage in Jamaica. A large percent of Igbo slaves left cultural links in the America’s just as other west African tribe.
Igbos don’t go about disputing Yoruba links in Brazil or Cuba, stop the inferiority complex it kills.

reason why I said you need education cos if you're educated you'd know that not everyone who speak against the ills of your Tribe is Afonja.

Every ethnic group has right to talk or write about their ancestors or relatives who are presently in South , North or central America or wherever they are located in the world.

So, I plead with you to ignore bitterness even if Ibos are in Jamaica or wherever they are. Besides, there are many other ethnic groups in Jamaica, so celebrate ibos or let their thread be.
I cant even fathom the guys pains,a lot of slaves came from every where, Yoruba,igbo,calabar, etc scattered all over the Carribbean islands,south America etc....A lot survived shipwrecks and made some islands their homes.I was reading a lot about slave trade but lost interest ,because the mental pictures i got from them wasnt pretty at all

Lol! I hope they won’t claim unu too. The truth remains that Igbo words can never be lost. In terms of the ethymology of words, you can easily tell who owns what. Igbos don’t go around claiming words that ain’t there’s. Therefore others should allow Igbo words be.
