@Wikenibori @agupard_a @uchesame Just curious what your definition of ‘articulation’ is. He spoke very coherently. What he said is easily understandable by anyone with any level of literacy. He articulated himself well. If your definition of articulation is speaking ‘phone’, you might need to revise it 🤷‍♀️

You have to admit that PO possesses a certain wit. Unlike Atiku or RCA, who struggle to handle tricky questions without resorting to name-calling or belittling others, Obi skillfully navigates these challenges. See how he handled that trap question.

@talk2veee @ScorpStarr This is really dishonest. She said everyone should live their truth. Every1 including herself. She didn’t say ‘live your truth’. The line wasn’t targeted at him. People like you read it as being directed at him because you already had your suspicions. That’s not Fancy’s fault.

This doesn’t exist. Nothing like Igbo by marriage.
AGU ◻️@Agu_Bu_Agu

@NelOsuji @YouCanCallMeOma @nzemmili Why are y’all pushing people away from the Igbos? Is it jealousy? It’s a known truth for long that a woman even if she’s not Igbo and she’s married to an Igbo Man, she’s now Igbo by marriage! That’s where the “Our wife, our person” always comes in. There are many many women

@kpakpando__tobe @kevwe_od The ‘nna’ in Cheta/Lota- nna (often) stands for God ie (heavenly) father, not necessarily the earthly father. Hence, no Cheta/Lota-nne. Cheta/Lota- nna is basically same as Cheta/Lota-chukwu/chi.

@kevwe_od Nnamdi is abt reverence for the patrilineal lineage. Same way we have names like Chetanna and Lotanna and no Chetanne or lotanne. Nnedi is not exactly a standalone(eg for someone like nnedi okoroafor, it's Nnedimma) so less about reverence/pride more of a general appreciation

Why are there no Igbo women named Nnemdi? Would that not be the opposite of Nnamdi, or is that just not how this works? Is Nnedi a form of Nnamdi? In that case, what happened to the “m”? Just thinking aloud.

@_nkemdivine_ Oh I see. Anyone trying to erase her original ID is definitely clowning. That’s not even possible. It’s a question of AND not OR. She will always be Swedish and now (by virtue of marriage) she is also Igbo.

@Pearlanona The original tweet I responded to completely erased her original id, and that's something that will always be a debate. I like being realistic. You can't completely erase a woman's original id. But you can erase her inherited identity. Therefore, her original is still the main id

@_nkemdivine_ How is she not a legitimate member of the tribe? How is she not Igbo? Why SEPARATE her with the term- White/Swedish woman married to an Igbo man? Do ppl not see the social/psychological harm this type of discrimination can cause? Or it doesn’t matter?

@_nkemdivine_ Retaining her original identity doesn’t mean she can’t take on a new one. I’m also concerned that people can’t see the harmfulness in insisting that one can never integrate fully into her nuclear family’s culture. If you say she’s free to integrate fully, then 1/2

@_nkemdivine_ Buried in Isuofia. How is this woman not Igbo. No one is saying she’s no longer white or Swedish. Or that she’s now a black woman. No one is also saying she’s ethnically Igbo (by birth/lineage). But she is definitely Igbo by marriage. Believing otherwise is highly discriminatory

@_nkemdivine_ How does becoming an Igbo (by marriage) mean she’s losing her Swedish identity? Why do you see an erasure instead of an expansion. Is there a rule that says identity must be one thing? Her literal nuclear family is Igbo. She bears an Igbo (last) name. If she dies, she’ll be 1/2

@Pearlanona @Alexisnphoenix @Okwesilieze82 Omo bye bye you just no Sabi book. Being Igbo or being a particular tribe is through ancestral inheritance and not by marriage, naturalisation or anything. Do you become a Scottish by being married to a Scot man?

@Vickystan2 @Alexisnphoenix @Okwesilieze82 I like how you said ‘wife to the land vs born in the land’ You’re finally getting the point. If you calm down and move further away from your fixed stance, you will arrive at my point— a woman can be ethnically Igbo (by birth) or Igbo by marriage 🤲🏼

@Pearlanona @Alexisnphoenix @Okwesilieze82 "ndị inyom" meeting signifies that she's a wife of the land while ụmụ ada shows you were born in the land, how's this simple discourse difficult to understand? Jesus Christ

@Pearlanona @Okwesilieze82 I don't see them as cultural yardstick but I am trying to make a distinction since my argument cannot be based on race. You are a bit unintelligent, I am sorry to say. Stop arguing with emojis next time, it waters down your point and makes you come off as unintelligent.

@Vickystan2 @Alexisnphoenix @Okwesilieze82 You’re reiterating my prior point. I gave an earlier example with the ADA-Enugu and Nwanyi-Anambra analogy. See above. So yes, this Swedish woman will attend any Isuofia women’s meeting (not Umuada) as Nwanyi-Isuofia. She’s an ADA-Sweden in this case 🤷‍♀️

@Pearlanona @Alexisnphoenix @Okwesilieze82 She will attend " ndị inyom" meeting but not Nwaada meeting, how is this difficult for you to understand. This is not about discrimination but following methodological truth that has been in existence for centuries.

@Vickystan2 @Okwesilieze82 BTW I’m not sure why you keep referencing the Arab and Emirati cultures 😅. Do you see them as some cultural yardstick? We’re talking about the Igbo culture and what obtains, and you keep referencing those. In any case, same thing applies to those cultures 🤷‍♀️

@Pearlanona @Okwesilieze82 Since which yesterday? How is someone that married into a particular tribe from that tribe? Does one become an Arab or Emirati through marriage? Argue like an adult with your eye emoji when your argument is baseless.

@Vickystan2 @Okwesilieze82 Pushing them to one side is the discrimination I’ve been warning you against since yesterday, can’t you see it? 🤣 they are LEGALLY qualified to contest, go and check the constitution. Instead, in reality, people like you have been ‘pushing them to one side’ 🫠 Do better
