Above is arrant nonsense. Ngwu Nwagadi Umunneoha founded Isiokpo the capital of so-called Ikwerre LGA. I guess you know the connotation of Isiokpo. You can see the betrayal artists could not change Isiokpo to RuIsiokpo. The real name is not Ikwerre. Ikwerre is a bastardize name and Ihwuoruoha is a coinage borne out of idiocy.
Must you always attach? Would you then say Opobo is part of Igboland because the first Jaja was an Igbo slave that later became a trader?

Okrika,eleme,andoni are not igbos period!

On Eleme being Igbo or not, you can inquire from Tam David-West about his encounter with the people of Eleme. By the way, Eleme is not the cultural name of the people.

Foolish fool, Ijo is not an ethnic group. It was Portuguese’s coinage that gave rise to the word-Ijo.
With the way you curse, I always wonder how childish an old man like you have become. The names of some of the ethnic groups in Nigeria were corrupted. Ijaw, or Ijow as the Europeans call them, is originally Izon; they call Igbo, Ibo; they call Ijebu, Jebu, etc.

There was no such a thing as Izon. It is a delight of deluded revisionists such as you. There were jackasses such as you that doubted Yari,ba, Yoo,ba and Yoro.ba for Yoruba. I curse because I have zero tolerance for imbecilic dingbats hoping to takeover NL.

Ofcos! Nobody can call Opobo Kingdom igbo. Opobo is more ijaw. Igbani clan of Ijawland.

Tam David West a Kalabari Man now speaks on behalf of Eleme people? Take a trip to rivers state and get enlightenment.

I'm in support of a Biafra Republic AS long as the Igbos don't make a re-attempt to force "any part" of Ijawland into the partnership.

The attempt failed...
Any further attempt will definitely fail

As a Nigerian minister, Tam David-West had an encounter of protocol with people of Eleme and it was an experience rather felt than described.

I can not guess your biological age but hope you realized that no single ethnic group in Nigeria will cross warpath with Ndigbo and survive to tell the story.

barcanista: in Omoku you call your king OBA..true or false? Your Oba dresses like the Oba of Benin, true or false?




My pal from Omoku said you guys are more tilted to benin....



((Well that is ur business. You are not Ijaw, SIMPlLE))
omoku are igbo people influenced wt benin culture, jst like the ekpeyes. The bottom line is dat they speak and understand igbo, wch is thr local language.

barcanista: You are an 1d1ot....


Anyway, pls schedule a visit to Okrika, I will personally take you to our Amayanabo, say to him that Okrika and Igbos are one and see whether you will leave the palace alive.


If you still doubt me, PM me.
okrika, eleme and tai isn't igbo, I cn remember acting a drama in nysc camp then (nonwa gbam tai LGA) and the king wz ascribed the name amayanabo bt etche, oyigbo, onelga(ogba, ndoni and egbema) are igbos and they are proud of been igbos, the ikwerres are igbos dat are claiming 2 be autonomous. The ekpeye of ahoda is also an igbo clan influenced wt benin culture, bt they speak igbo, I dnt know y we are arguing all this shit.

Let me repair your ignorance. Okrika is not Igbo though has some Igbo elements. It's more Ijoid than it can ever be Igbo. Eleme is one of the units that make up Ogoni. Others are Khana, Gokhana, Tai. Andoni is also not Igbo.

I'm not even sure you're Igbo. You created this thread to plan a seed of discord.

I'm a full nwafor, I grew up in ph! The ikwerres are igbos wif identity crises, so are the omokus etc but the okrikas and eleme ARE not igbo. They intermarried a lot with igbos thus most of their parents can speak igbo but they're not igbo. Andoni isn't igbo! Whoever started this threAd is tryna set us against ourselves. Portharcourt is not ijawland in anyway. Its more of ikwerre land(igwe ocha). All this rumu this and tht is only valid in naming roads but when they speak the rumu would sound really stupid(lol).
