' CULTURE IS DYNAMIC' TO SOME IGBOS BUT NOT TO PRINCE HARRY

By

Prince Harry didn't think 'as culture is dynamic' let me do away with my family tradition of naming children after illustrious relations.' He named his daughter after the Queen, his grandmother.

Meanwhile, Harry's ancestors were among the founders & owners of Christianity.

Now come to my own people. Every Igbo Christian is a convert to Christianity. And it is among Igbos you would find people dismissing valuable traditions of their own religion Omenana, which they have ran away from, like a mad dog which abandons its master, with the argument that 'culture is dynamic' and that as Christians they don't have to follow Omenana as our fathers handed it over to us. The wine the bride gives to the groom is thrown away because the groom distrusts the bride's family as he distrusts his own because 'culture is dynamic.'

By Remy Ilona If you heard ori-aku( enjoyer of wealth), I hope you also heard odozi-aku( protector/ builder of wealth). Our culture Omenana was far too advanced to make our women ' housewives', i.e., just ori-aku, that irresponsible men can abuse, and starve of money. If you didn't hear about odozi-aku you heard about 'nwanyi Nnewi', i.e, the bike, that our women used to ride to Nkwo Nnewi, to do their businesses. If ori-aku isn't just a jocular title, it's of foreign origins. I don't know when an Igbo woman willingly chose to be idle. Men, our fathers encouraged our mothers to grow rich. Let's emulate them!

Image
By Okechukwu Ononaeke One lie perpetrated by Igbophobes against the Igbo over the years is that the Igbo wants to dominate every other person. This fear of Igbo domination is largely responsible for Igbo genocides over the last century including the well celebrated 1967-1970 Igbo genocide that led to the death of 3-5million Igbo, 25%of the Igbo population. I in 4 Igbo lost their lives in the 1967-1970 Igbo genocide. This 1967-1970 Igbo genocide occured despite the fact that the Igbo was largely responsible for Nigeria's 'independence'. Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, an Igbo was the father of Nigerian 'independence'.  Any thing to the contrary of Nnamdi Azikiwe and his fellow Igbo being the vanguard of Nigerian 'independence' is revisionism and IGBO NEWS has no time for revisionism. Back to our story: Does the Igbo truly seek to dominate his fellow? Let's take a look at how those who want to dominate do it and then answer the question ourselves. The onl...
