If you are afraid of insecurity in your village to the extent you cannot live or operate from there, then you are not qualified to answer a Dibia, Ezenwanyi, Nze, Obi, Ezeani, Igwe.- Nze Tobe Osigwe
Odinani is odibendi. What is in your father’s place. I repeat, Odinani is the traditional practices of your fatherland. By fatherland I mean your village.
So, as Ezenwayi who is from Osisiomangwa, but living in a rented flat in Asaba, and, operating a Dibia chamber. My dear, you are not doing Odinani, what you are doing is Traditional Religious Business or Outreach. You cannot be doing Odinani Ngwa in Asaba.
You must be able to spot the difference between Odinani and Traditional Religious Business.
Odinani starts with you being fixed in your own geographical lineage, being known there as one of the custodians and practitioners of the tradition of your linegage. This will be visibly clear to all via your everyday lifestyle.
Odinani cannot be practised in complete sequestration from where you are from. Unless you have adopted your new location as your home and they in turn accept you.
If adoption of a new place is not the case, rather, your moving is because you are looking for richer customers or you are afraid of facing the old people in your family, that means, you are not a candidate for changing or upholding your own Odibendi.
If you are afraid of insecurity in your village to the extent you cannot live or operate from there, then you are not qualified to answer a Dibia, Ezenwanyi, Nze, Obi, Ezeani, Igwe.
Even politicians know for you to be taken seriously as a seasoned politician you must always deliver your ward and constituency by being on ground.
Odinani is not theory. It is practical. And it’s practicality is delineated to a specific location.
You cannot be claiming Odogwu from another man’s land.
You cannot be advocating for change whereas you are far removed or unknown in your primary constituency.
A Dibia or Ezenwanyi that operates from outside his or her village is a tenant. And a tenant has no say when real and serious issues that pertains to the land(Odinani Na Omenani) they are perched on are discussed.
Once you are not resident in your ancestral land, cease making noise on social media. Go back home and start the real work. Who are you leaving it for? Me?
Our people will say, ana esite na ana welu ari enu. You climb up from down.

If you are not ready to come down to your place where it matters, where you have stake, yet you consider yourself a stakeholder in respect to the propagation of Odinani then you are either a hypocrite, a religious businessman or a charlatan.

“It took me getting married and giving birth to realise marriage benefits men more” — Woman shares emotional thoughts
A woman has stirred serious conversations online after opening up about how marriage and motherhood changed her perspective on life.
In a heartfelt reflection, she said it was only after getting married and giving birth that she began questioning who marriage truly benefits.
According to her, women often carry the heavier load — emotionally, physically, and mentally.
She explained that marriage can make women feel like tools, responsible for cooking, cleaning, caring for the home, and even contributing financially, while still bearing the full weight of pregnancy, childbirth, and childcare.
She questioned why something described as a “blessing” should come with so much pain, stress, sleepless nights, and emotional strain for women.
In her words, childbirth comes with intense pain, followed by years of responsibility that largely fall on the woman, while many men continue life almost unchanged.
She admitted she never strongly pushed for marriage herself and only went along with it after family pressure. It was the lived experience — not theory — that opened her eyes.
While she made it clear that she loves her son deeply and finds joy in him, she said motherhood also forced her to confront uncomfortable truths about expectations placed on women.
