The comments here are baffling. Are we now talking from both sides of our mouth bikonu? We will complain that Igbo culture is dying and our Igbo children know nothing about our culture then complain again that this kind of gathering is an abomination/shameful. You cannot tell me that everybody in this video would have travelled this year to celebrate new yam festival. Have you considered travel cost for a family even one person,childcare, work and annual leave, health reasons. This is a good way of keeping the Igbo culture alive even in a foreign land and also introducing the children to their culture for identity sake. Please stop confusing yourself and everyone and take a stand, not complain about two opposite things at a time. Others countries celebrate their culture here e.g My Indian friends celebrate Diwali here they don’t have to travel to India Rest Biko.
God bless every igbo everywhere in the world we are a great tribe I'm very proud of the organizers of this wonderful occasion and everyone present representing us abroad Ekene Mu Unu
The event is too noisy, people are blocking the view; not able to hear the M.C. Please take note for next event planning; otherwise a very good idea for joint state interactions. Thank you
Njenje Media: I watched with interest this festival organized by The Igbos in UK. All States were mentioned to share in the festivities, except Delta State (Anioma People). How is it that when it comes to suffering The Aniomas bear the brunt with their cousins in the East, but when the time of festivities, they are isolated? I know a lot of people will have excuses to give but I stand to be educated.
Not only Anioma, Rivers and Ebonyi didn’t participate. To participate, I understand that they have to have a Union and come as a state. Hopefully next year, they will join. Notice that the dances and performances are done by state.
@@NjenjeMedia My brother, this is a celebration of our culture and our love for one another, every of our communities. It shouldn't be based on who is present. I'd propose that in all such celebrations, we should call out all 5 SE states, then other states where Igbo land extends to viz Delta, Kogi, Benue, Cross River, Rivers, Akwa-Ibom, Edo states. We shouldn't do anything under Igbo umbrella without recognizing our brothers outside SE. Thereafter, we should also have a plate for and call out the rest of the Nigerian community (other tribes put together), and another for the rest of Africa. It's an extension of love as we are still part of Nigeria. When we leave Nigeria, as it seems the only way forward, then we re-arrange.
This culture is meaningful only in the Ancestral Land. Ekweremadu's ordeal in Germany and MNK'S GOSPEL MUST not be forgotten . It is a culture that summons people to their towns and villages ......and this show could not even reflect the STATE STRUCTURES OF BIAFRA REPUBLIC GOVERNMENT IN EXILE AND DE FACTO GOVERNMENT IN HOMELAND ????. BIAFRA REPUBLIC BIAFRA GOVERNMENT.......
@@ezidimmakenneth7927 Don't worry yourself . The comment is for the ATTENTION of intelligent reasonable people who studied the history of British slave trade and dehumanization of Africans.
Lol. Africans should not go and find solutions to their problems. They should keep blaming Europeans. You’ll only end up more bitter India was also colonized
There is nothing unfortunate. These are Igbo people who live in the Diaspora. This is the only way to uphold their Igbo culture and heritage. If anything, we should be grateful our Igbo legacy lives on.
@Obidike82 we can't easily forget that people travel home for New yam festival. Now, they choose to celebrate their new yam festival wherever they are domicile because of lack of essential amenities, security, and bad governance of their homeland. We can't run away from ourselves. We are what we are, and we must defend it, or our identity will be lost!
@@judeobisike1731 fair point on the high level of insecurity in the South-East Nigeria. However, let’s not forget that some can’t make it home because of xyz reasons i.e. immigration restrictions, health related problems etc and for others (with settled/citizenship status), it’s purely by choice to remain in their host countries to promote their culture. Regardless of where we are, home or abroad, our Igbo culture/heritage should be promoted at all cost.
For your brain, you think you've made sense, all towns in Southeast are celebrating the festival in their villages, just say you're jealous because you don't live abroad
The women group wearing Orange no try well, it seems they all didn't go to practice, standing around, can't even bend down, a little disorganized 😂😂😂 But they r beautiful all da same!❤

@@NjenjeMediaEnglish people would be laughing at Africans for celebrating new yam festival in abroad. Are they going to celebrate new maize or 🌴oil festival too?
@@mummydaddy7288 your fathers and your fathers before them, do they celebrate cultural things like new yam festival in a foreign soil? Lost generation una shame dey shame me in the next 100 years your lineage will be gone completely. Mumu stop embarrassing yourself.

We igbo londoners, misses this festival.
I didn't know you cultivated yam there.
It's unfortunate that some people have accepted to abandon their homeland and celebrate their culture in the land of their oppressors

ANUOFAIA'S DISPLAYING THEIR HATRED JEALOUSY ND ENVIOUSNESS FOR D IGBO'S
WHO CARES
Go and fight for freedom of Biafra and quit celebrating new yams in foreign lands. Freedom first before anything else
You are fighting for it already. Fight on, and allow others to do theirs.
@@NjenjeMediaEnglish people would be laughing at Africans for celebrating new yam festival in abroad. Are they going to celebrate new maize or 🌴oil festival too?
I can't understand why most don't even come back to celebrate Christmas in Igboland, and now Nriji in the former Christian colonist nations
Too noisy
This is Manchester, as if is their village.
Igbos culture will vanish if we failed to get Biafra
Shameful
why shameful?i likethat so much
Ur entire generation will be shamefully disgraced. Ewu awusa, onye ofe mmanu
