At least you are being honest.

DANILSA: [/color] READ AGAIN AND TELL ME THE TRUTH ABOUT WHAT U ARE.

solomonkane:

Its the honest truth, there is no teacher like experience. Yorubas will use and dump the Okuns as circumstances demand, Hausa have done same with the Nupes and Kanuris and Igbos have done the same with us. Even on this thread and other similar threads, people have cast aspersions on us and insulted us for defining ourselves by ourselves.

Stop misspelling our names, there is nothing like "Ukwu", its Uku as in Ubulu-Uku, Issele-Uku, Ogwashi-Uku. Anioma people are Anioma people, the fact that Ralph Uweuche is Ohaneze president is merely political and not an indication of communality. Abdulrahman Okene was from Kogi, yet was chairman of the Arewa Consultative Forum. Go to Okene, call them Hausa/Fulani and see if they won't behead you. Anioma won't go that far but we will claim Igbo when its politically or economically expedient and reject it when its not.

omonuan:

Ukwu is the proper pronunciation uku is the anglicized version. It is akin to Igbo and Ibo.

You are really living up to your name, my brother. Keep it up.

You're not even ashamed to spit this nonsense. I'll address your ignorance later...stay tuned.

I'm back...

AREWA Consultative forum is a Northern group and not specifically an hausa group. So, anybody north of Edo state can occupy a position in the group. I remember Awoniyi once occupied a position in ACF. So, why are you comparing it with Anioma. The problem with some of you is that you will go to any length to deny your Igboness and tell lies but you won't even bother to a little research so that your lies will go smoothly without being caught.

The only thing i'll agree with you is the fact that Anioma people are not big on representing Igbo. They're not the kind of people that will go about telling people boldly that they're Igbo. I really don't know why...I met a woman from Agbor just 4 days ago and here's a comment i had with her...btw, i noticed she spoke Igbo once to someone and i wanted to be sure that she was one...

Me: Madam, you be Igbo?

Woman: I be Delta

Me: Where for Delta?

Woman: Agbor

Me: You be Igbo now...

Woman: Ok

Note that she didn't say that she's Igbo and she also didn't deny being one. If not, she would have said a capital NO when i asked her if she was Igbo and she would have dissociated herself from being Igbo whenever i called her Igbo.

Another conversation was also with another boy from Agbor...I asked him where he's from and he said Agbor and i said Igbo? and he said "I no sure oo. We dey speak like Igbo but i no Know. Some people dey call us Igbo". WTF!!!

solomonkane:

What would you like to know?

Ngodigha:
Only from Ika/Ndowa axis but they are in the miniority. The Oshimilis and Aniochas are very proud Igbo.

Da infamous: if u look at it the father is the one that deposit 80% DNA and the mother is just an incubator

Ngodigha:
What sort of nonsense is this above. are you drunk this afternoon already?.
In case you do not know, the early missionaries spelt Arochukwu as Arochuku, Chukwu as chuku, Nwachukwu as nwachuku, Ogwashi ukwu as Ogwashi uku etc. But since independence, the destiny of Ndigbo is in the hands of Ndigbo and all those abnomalities have been corrected. Only a full will now write Igbo as Ibo, Arochukwu as Arochuku and Ogwashi ukwu as Ogwashi uku.
I hope this settles permanently into some little brains out there.

I refer to myself as Anioma dude, if you don't like it or if it seems I am denying you, deal with it. Association is not by force. If Okene's headship of Arewa was of no consequence as you claim, so too Uweuche's leadership of Ohaneze since they i.e ACF and Ohaneze are one and the same thing. You are too young to remember how Okene and Awoniyi fought to defend what they saw as Northern interest, only to be cast aside when the Hausas got what they wanted. The Igbos may or may not do the same to the Aniomas. I am done discussing this, if you have anything to say, let me know ASAP because there is a statue of limitation on my tolerance for arrant tomfoolery.

afam4eva:
Whether you're Anioma does not suffice. Afterall Anioma was created to unify the Igbo speaking areas of the old bendel and present Delta state. Very soon you'll start saying it's an ethnic group.

Like i said, ACF and Ohaneze are not the same thing. While ACF is a regional group, Ohaneze is an ethnic group.

Abagworo:

Hausa and Kanuri or Nupe is no way like SE Igbo and Delta Igbo. Never! Those people don't speak same language. Hausa and Kanuri is like Hausa and Igbo in differences and intelligibility. Arewa is not an Hausa organization but also includes Yoruba and hundreds of other ethnic groups while Ohaneze is exclusively an Igbo organization.

Igbos suffered genocide, civil war and bad name just because of the deed of Aniomas which they accepted as the deed of all Igbos. Igbos did not give excuses that the 1966 killing of non-Igbo leaders was done by Anioma because we are all Igbos. Aniomas owe the Southeast a lot for that alone.

omonuan: Anyone that shows up on this thread and assert that Ndokwa is not Igbo is grossly misinformed. The entire Delta North is an Igbo enclave period. I know this because I am from Delta North.

UkwuaniNdokwa, Enuani and Ika are cousins. We speak the same language with different twangs. I am tired of some misguided elements from Anioma claiming that only Enuani is Igbo as if being Igbo is demeaning. In fact, Enuani (Aniocha And Oshimili) part of Anioma is the most advanced of the clans. We have been intellectually dominant for ages.

chucky234: What a fool,as old as you are you know nothing about your heritage. Who the hell told you that Ndokwas are Igbos,Igbos don't even know their origin. To save yourself from further embarrassment you can learn about your origin here www.nairaland.com/1072992/brief-history-ndokwa
