This woman, nobody knows her in igbo land. Whether she negotiates or not, no igbo gives two bleeps about her existence. And since she has been in Islam, no increment of the Muslim population in igbo land.

There are Muslims, traditionalists, atheists there too who are Igbos too, so are you saying only the Christians should always be catered for? Are the rest no longer Igbos because they are in the minority?
This is not about APC or Buhari who we know you hate, it's about fellow Igbos who are Muslims

To you, "Every name reflect situations, luck and religious significance which is why You have Christian and Muslim names". That doesn't mean that it's the same for everyone. Some people contend that there are no such things as "Christian names" or "Muslims names" because there's no where in the bible or quoran that we are instructed to give certain names to our children.

Other people feel differently, eg Mustapha Chike-Obi is the son of the famous mathematician, Chike Obi. He is a Christian, yet he bears the name Mustapha.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mustafa_Chike-Obi

Another example

https://www.quora.com/Do-Christians-who-have-turned-atheist-avoid-naming-their-kids-with-Christian-names

I will use any example that I feel like using and there's absolutely nothing that you can do about it.
smh...stop being intelligent by half "some people contend" is that a kind of proof that there are no Christian name or Muslim names? Stop shifting the goal by telling me there shouldn't be when in fact there are. Ever heard of Baptism before? Mustapha is an Arabic name but since Islam is closely associated with arabism most Muslims adopt Arabic language and culture. Hence a non Muslim can answer Mustapha strictly for its native connotation.

That is clearly different from a self proclaimed Muslim going with the name "Christian". That is like a man with the name "Muslim" or "muhammedian" struggling to convince me he is a Christian.

As for your delusional examples, do well to keep them to yourself.

In as much as she was born by Igbo parents, weather no one knows her, she still remains an Igbo woman. Take it or leave it, Islam is growing fast in the east.

I tire o, they are frustrating, I don't know if that is how they are generally or some foolish online miscreant make it look so, I expected the Igbo on nairaland to condemn their counterpart base on the op extract from BBC page, but they follow the same path, I come to conclusion that is how they are, full of hate and bitterness..

No amount of greetings should be forced down anybodies throat. If Igbos dont like the "Eid" greeting, they have a right to say they reject it

grin grin grin

1) You did not address the example in the screenshot that I posted because you can't. That was an atheist bearing the name Christian and that's because anybody can bear the name Christian. I can't believe that this has to be explained to anyone.


2) Can you show any proof of anything that prevents a non-Christian bearing the name Christian (apart from your personal belief)?

3) Who gives a rat's ass whether you are convinced or not?? You are not the one to decide whether Christians bear the name Mohammed or Muslims bear the name Christian. You do not know better than a person that decides to have the name Isa and Christian together (I wonder if you even know the meaning of the name Isa). If someone says that his name is Christian and he is a Muslim and you say that he is not, then it only means that you do not know what you are talking about. Otherwise you would provide proof that he is lying (he who asserts must prove/affirmati non neganti incumbit probatio), but you have no proof except your personal belief, which is just not good enough.

4) People are baptised with all kinds of names. That only applies to churches that give baptism names. There are many Christians who do not have a Jewish or so called Christian name.

Once again, you have not proved anything apart from your personal belief that a Christian cannot bear the name Mohammed and a Muslim cannot bear the name Christian. That's just your personal belief and you do not dictate or determine the names that others choose for themselves.

Here is a video of Ustaz Isa Christian Friday Okonkwo


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99HnDPluROA

The fact is that the man exists, he is a Muslim and his name is Christian. That's fact. Nobody cares about your opinion.

Can someone please translate Eid Mubarak into Ibo for me. So i can greet them in their language.

Ibos are not against the greeting, they are upset that it is sent in Arabic.

Do you all not recall a enger on a domestic flight that caused chaos and delayed airplane from taking off because safety instructions were not read in Igbo?

Why must I reply u in igbo.


You want to limit the understanding of the audience as many won't understand and purely give up.


Why do uu guys easily revert to igbo when issues such as this islamisation agenda is discussed.

Or do u think we not aware that u guys are also planning to islamise igboland.


And to igbo language, my first language, u still a child to where am dishing out the sweet language.


Ika bu nwata.
So don't even go that way because aturu si na omaghi agba egwu, mana ikuru egwu bata be ya, omaghi agba, owuba ya awuba....
