When a non Igbo man puts it on repeat, then you know the song is good. Salute 🫡 to Gentleman Mike.

Great and awesome heart touching songs. Songs of our fathers. Long live my Igbo and African culture. Iseeeeeeee

I heard this song luckily on Spotify and boy has it led me down an entire discography of amazing highlife songs begging for a revival.

I thank each day for the gift of music. How harmonious the chorus is, sooo soothing. I will love you forever Dad, you brought me up with the life of ndi Igbo.

The things i heard this man play on the guitar is mind-blowing....

Beautiful song. I remember this from my years growing up in Nigeria. Igbo music is wonderful; in addition to enjoying the music, you also learn a great deal from it. You can't beat that. Mike Ejeagha is an amazingly talented man.

People didn't do Mike Ejeagha well. When your story is long, they say "na Ị na-akụkọ Mike Ejeagha". That was why I took interest in his music. There are a lot of lessons to learn from his songs. I particularly like the Igbo dialect he used in his narrations.

Our igbo people are naturally diety inclined. Chukwu Okike Ahbiama's own people. Salut to the legendary Mike Ejeagha

Onje Ori Ituba is a story of a hunter called Akuebube who became blind during a hunting expedition and resorted to stealing when he could not hunt again. His speciality is stealing his brother's wife's snuff after she has finished grinding the tobacco for sale in the market, Akubebule always denies the theft of the ground tobacco until when pepper and calmwood was grounded instead of tobacco and he was caught with the sniffing of pepper instead of tobacco

It is a folk story that teaches moral. The moral of the story is that no matter the situation one finds oneself, one should not use it as an excuse to do evil. The story is about a man named Aku Ebube who was a very rich farmer and hunter whose wealth made him to become so proud. However, while hunting one day he ran into trouble leading to his blindness and from that moment he became a terror to those around him as he started stealing anything he can lay hands on and whenever people asks him about the missing things he will play the victim and say that they are picking on him because of his condition. However the one that became a serious moral issue was when Mgbeoye, the widow of his late brother who was also struggling financially as she had no body to help her. She manages life making and selling local snuff from ground tobacco leaves but Aku Ebube did not spare her as he will frequently steal the whole product from the woman because they both lived within the same vicinity. So, after complaining to the elders of the village ,they summoned Aku Ebube who denied that she was not behind the thefts. This prompted the elders to give Mgboye the go ahead to do anything to ensure the safety of her property. She decided to do something drastic. She went and bought dry red hot chilly pepper and fried it making the colour brownish and then mixed it with some snuff that even someone who was not blind would not know that it has been mixed with pepper. She went and kept it as usual in the same place she keeps it and left for market. As expected, Aku Ebube knowing that the woman had left crossed over to her hut and called her and called her. When she did not answer he then confirmed that she was not around. He went straight to where the container of the stuff is and emptied everything into the container he came with. But before leaving he decided to test the snuff and he used the anger and indignation that he was accused of being behind the theft to sniff it hard. Instantly He fell down and started shouting in distress that "Mgboye had killed him". The effect of the pepper was suffocating him and when people gathered and he could not say woman did to him.. Some went and called Mgboye who then explained what happened as people were pouring water on him to revive him. The who people now laughed and remembered what he said whenever he was asked about missing items. Those things he said formed the chorus of the song.

The legend doesn't use the literal meaning of blindness in his folklore, rather he adopts a conceptual meaning to explain Akuebube's downfall, and thus subsiquent inability due to his pride and arrogance emanating from his previous achievement...

does anyone have lyrics to this sweet music?
