Here’s knight/othniel’s answer to the literal meaning of his city, Benin. His back writing Mumbo Jumbo was a sign of surrender, y'all.

Admittedly, that's a funny one, but you must agree that it was simply a mistake, kind of like a "slip of the tongue".

However, in the case of Biafra's grunting, we know damn too well why he prefers to write in, if I may use Mr Aluko's words, "engl-igbo" rather than in english.

I too love this one, the mother of all goofs coming from English professor, othniel/Knight. Wonders they say, shall never end and I agree, absolutely.

Yes, instead of writing in "Engli-Ishi", they write in "Engli-Igbo!"

"Zebrudaiya" Biafra, alias 1:32 am:


What kind of Okija vernacular are you writing here?

Abeg, write in standard Engli-Igbo, your usual fare: "Birds of the same feathers flocks togethers"

Inuru ihen nkwuru ?

Dr Aluko

Good I got your attention, finally something beyond your level of Igbo language. I knew that your Igbo language well will run dry soon. You didn't disapoint. Your sidekicks is not here today to irritate others with you.

From the BNW Administrator to "knight" as reproduced by addy:
quote:
Dear Steve:

Your e-mail address corresponds with the handle "Knight" at BNW Forums. BNW did
not ban your IP address. However, we banned the IP address of another member of
BNW whose account was considered dormant. We are baffled that you were affected
by the ban of the IP of another BNW member.


Kind regards,

Gotchaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

People:

This quote posting for the third time will surely remain the all time high. It is the mother of all f*u*c*k*e*d up grammars or Engli-Bini. A short narrative about this bungled grammar would help. See, othniel/Knight/Biafara etc was in collusion with his master bolekaja alikirija to humiliate our man Biafra on his few typo errors unbeknownst to the wayward bini "BurnThrowAway" that his grammar is way far from being perfect. People should therefore be careful in reviewing the syntax of others. Ladies and gentlemen, here you have the grammar of someone who claimed superior in this language.

Simple should've been simply.

knew easily replaces his knews.

It's a lotto folks. Two back-to-back fantabulous quotes. Chiboy to my good friend addy.

I think you should drop the advocacy for Knight, he just does not get it. He started off calling Biafran technology primitive, yet has not been able to perform a simple logon to a messageboard. I would be ashamed of pushing such an ignorant persons case.

In a saner clime and decent culture, the likes of ezeigbogburugburu will be consigned to the dustbin of political irrelevance. Only in the culture of the "annointed ones" will a supposed general sneak out on his brainwashed lieutenants to a life of seeming comfort, leaving the homeland in flames; at least the areonakakanfo came back in the thick of things to shore up the confidence of his followers. Only in the culture of the "jews of Africa" will a 70 year old grandfather stab his best friend in the back by defiling his teenage daughter and still retain his folk hero status. When ezeigogburugburu speaks, he only elicit sympathy from other Nigerians who just wish he would go quietly away and stop reminding them of missed opportunities - just one silver bullet from Gowon's goons would have spared the world of this debased specie of homo sapien.

MeBiafran:

Please remove my name from your PM list. I'm not keen on your selective handle matching which has dangerously overlooked Ad-dy. And please take your romance with Ad-dy to the "more this and that". All these headlines dedicated to silly inanimate handles in our news and politics debate section belittle this messageboard.

I hope you don't take this the wrong way.
Shalom my brother

I love and cherish this quote. It shows grace and maturity. We should endeavor to relish in the area where we share common ground.

There is one characteristics about Igbo women..they all bleach.......STOOGE
I have never known Igbo women in general to mutilate their skin.Bleaching has always been predominantly Yoruba and Benin fascination. Igbo women have lighter skin color than the dark skinned Yorubas and Hausas combined. In general, the beauty of Igbo women is their erogenous zone, that which is their brain power.A joke is one thing, facts is another thing.

To all Igbos in the House,
It's sad that some of you are so cheap that you can be so easily dragged into USELESS discussions which you could do well to ignore. When will some of you "mature" as the innitiator of this thread expect us to?.........
But instead of doing the right thing to ignore the calculated touting, what some us do is to descend so low as to throwing childish and unnecessary insults or worse still go to every length to answer what even a kindergarten kid can figure out was a question asked with mischief in mind. WHEN WILL YOU GUYS LEARN TO KEEP SILENT OR USE YOUR TIME FOR SOMETHING MORE USEFUL?

Mebiafra:

I'm somewhat concerned that my little post drew such a lengthy and venomous response(s) from you. It shouldn't. I did not claim to be addressing the Igbos(sic) neither did I pretend to be expounding on strategy. All I did was beg you to remove my name from your PM list. I know my method of extending this request may be unpopular but then isn't that what tolerance should be about? Should we tolerate Yoroba and insult the Igbo?

I personally didn't use PM for fear my words/intentions/actions might be twisted when it has bounced to Germany and back. Who knows, I may again be charged with building some Igbo house in mainland Europe. The fact that you have come out to start describing your PM as some great strategic feat mirrored after Alukome and Knight has confirmed my fears. What I read will not contribute an ounce to the Biafran struggle (IMHO). Secondly as one who has "romanced" a handle in this board I've found that some people go through people to find out about people. I am not about to form the third part of a triangle involving AD-dy and that other loner.

God willing we shall one day talk in the company of some gregarious and peace-loving Biafrans who reside in this forum. Until then count me as a friend.

Kind regards,
OU

Kaa.

I'm saddened that you have turned this thread exclusively for quotes into something else. In any,

I still count you as a fellow Biafran and a brother. The quote you attributed to me was erroneous I believe Nwa Aro wrote that. My response was in direct rebuttal of yours so if mine was venomous then that's the way I saw yours. Kaa!

The panel he established to look into the allegations that there was no election in Anambra, Enugu and Rivers states, what did he (Obasanjo) do (with its report)? After he met Ngige and Uba and both admitted that he did not win, what did he do as president of the country? At the time Anambra was having problem that affected governance and security, what did he do? The joke now is that the day Obasanjo met Ngige and Uba, actually three robbers met, not two robbers as claimed by Obasanjo." ---by Balarabe Musa Sun 15.12.2004
