    Am so great to see this site, “Afikpo unu jookwa” am very proud to be a citizen of Afikpo, Enohia is also one of the great cities in Afikpo @ Nmkpume one of Itim.

  7. Its amazing how he speaks from his heart..and you can tell its deep and rich…I am so impressed and at the same time sad because he hits on a crux which i see us losing everyday…

    To convey such an experiential sentiment so aptly and clear and yet so tangibly, is but an amazing gift Chris has.

    I kinda envy him and also mourn because I fear my generation may not have people who can express such sentiments as we have gradually attrited our humanity in the pursuit of self aggrandizement …So help us o God!.

  11. Chris Abani, great guy. Wonderful family! My impressions growing up, was that he was his mother’s pet & he just confirmed it here. They were often seen together. I miss his elder brother, Gregory, now deceased. We were friends in the hood & his primary preoccupation then was to find out whether masquerades came out from the underground as we were often told! Saw Gregory last at Okigwe. He was at O’Kings while I was at Ihube. He approached me & without pleasantries told me their school was going to beat ours that day in a football match. Trust me, when they did, I told myself we were not going to be friends again. He even came in as a sub. I cried that day!
