Oguta is not Ututu oma, it's 'Unu abgbona?'
I'm from Oguta 1

Biko, I have been saying this: 'ututu oma' is not the proper way to greet 'good morning' in Igbo. Make una take note and stop bastardizing our language!

Standard Igbo - 'I boola chi?'
Ngwa/Owere/Mbaise axis - 'I futala?' or 'I voola?'
Ohafia/Arochukwu axis - 'I pusala?' or 'I tesala?' or 'nnawo'
Onitsha - 'I putago?' or 'I tetago?'

Oguta is "unu agbona" and there is nothing like "ututu oma" in any traditional Igbo language.

Some Igbos say "I saala chi" and Owerri/Uratta axis is "ihit'ala" with the "t" silent or "Iket'ala" with the "t" silent.

On balli jam to more than one person. This is the Fulani language called Fulfulde.

Ututu oma is the direct translation of good morning.
its still acceptable and its mostly used in Igbo izugbe

'Ututu oma' being the direct translation of 'good morning' does not mean that it adequately represents how the greeting 'good morning' is expressed in the Igbo language. We Igbos knew how to say good morning before the white men came.

You're forgetting that Igbo Izugbe was created by humans like you and I, who made a serious mistake by constructing such a phrase. The phrase 'Ututu oma' is nothing more than a corruption of the Igbo language in an effort to make it more English-like. You might as well begin saying 'abali/anyasi oma' for 'good night'.
