Warning To Our Igbo Brothers In Asaba, Anioma, Ogwashi Ukwu Nd Others… Beware! I am writing this message of Love specifically to our brothers in Agbor, Anioma, Onicha Ugbo, Ogwashi Ukwu, Asaba and others. Please beware that a hermaphrodite who has gender identity and goes by the name of NgeneUkwenu and his partner Shachris are spreading lies on Nairaland and the internet. With particular reference to this thread created by this criminal called NgeneUkwenu ; Let me categorically tell you people as you all know by now that there is nothing like Delta Igbo, Anambra Igbo, Abia Igbo, Ebonyi Igbo, Enugu Igbo or Imo Igbo. There is nothing even like Rivers Igbo. IGBO IS IGBO ANYTIME, ANYDAY! Biafraland encompasses everything Igbo and our brothers in the struggle viz a viz the Ibibios, Anangs, Efik, Ijaw and probably Urhobo and others. Of worthy note, there has been a proliferation of threads on anything Igbo. Igbo this and Igbo that. If you people are observant, you will notice that most threads being created on Nairaland in “apparent sympathy” to the Igbos are being created by known Igbo and our Niger delta brother haters. Example is this one created by this Igbo and Niger Delta hater; shachris ; Let us categorically also tell them that we are not interested in their sympathy. We don’t need anything from them. The Igbo nation is too big to be marginalized or made to look like a minor tribe. We are after a land of equity, truth, love and justice. A land where every thing will be on merit. A land where there will be nothing like quota or tribalism. A land where the cut of mark in university entrance examination will be equal in every part of the nation. It is not a land where the North will be given 70% cut off mark in jamb while the East and West are given 250%! We are always annoyed when people who are not Biafrans or from biafraland create threads on Nairaland and say stuffs like “My Igbo brothers”. We are not brothers if you are not of the Biafran nation or on the Biafran map. There is nothing that makes us brothers with the Hausa/Fulanis or the Yorubas. The Yorubas eat Ewedu and Amala. We eat Ofe Onugbu and Akpu. The Hausas drink Fura Di Nunu… (Blood from an animal)…. While we drink Nkwu Ocha or Nkwu Enu (Palm Wine). The Hausas cum Yorubas worship Allah and follow the teachings of Mohammed. We on the other hand worship God (Chukwu Okike) and follow the teachings of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. We were baptized, sanctified and bought over by the blood of Jesus. We were not born Muslims. We remain full blooded Igbo till we die! We remain Christians or Traditionalists till we die. When the Hausas/Fulanis die, they head to paradise. We on the other hand head to Heaven to see Jesus and our ancestors. The bad ones among you see Shaytan while the bad ones among us see Ekwensu! Politically, the Yorubas are known to have traditional leaders whom they are alway subservient to. The Hausa/Pulanis are always known to have emirates and stuffs like that. IGBBO LAND ON THE OTHER HAND IS A LAND OF THE FREE LIKE THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. A LAND OF OPPORTUNITIES FLOWING WITH MILK AND HONEY! SAME GOES TO ALL OUR BROTHERS IN THE STRUGGLE…. IJAWS, ANANGS, IBIBIOS, EFIKS ETC! ALL AM TRYING TO SAY IN ESSENCE IS THAT EAST SIDERZ CUM SOUTH SIDERZ DON’T ROLL WITH NORTH SIDERZ OR THE WEST SIDERZ. WE ARE FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT AND WE SHALL REMAIN SO. NOTHING SHALL EVER MAKE US REMAIN ONE. BIAFRA MUST STAND! OF worthy mention, We congratulate president Buhari on his appointment of an Igbo Son to head the NNPC. KACHIKWU IS A FULL BLOODED IGBO AND NOT DELTA IGBO AS BEING SPREAD BY THE ENEMIES OF BIAFRA While we congratulate Buhari, let it also be known to him and Nigerians in General that we are not looking for any compensation. We don’t need any appointments. We don’t even expect anything from Nigeria and The Nigerian government. ALL WE ASK FOR IS A REFERENDUM! While We still Congratulate Buhari on his mission to Better Nigeria, we also call on the United nations to give us a referendum. A referendum is a we want. Simple! We are not against Buhari making Nigeria better. We even say more grease to his elbows. The only thing is that we are not in support of him having any plans for Biafraland. We have God given leaders and warriors who will lead us to the promised land. We don’t need appointments, compensations or emoluments. All we want is Biafra. BIAFRA TILL WE DIE!

I don't remember seeing Edo area in any Biafra map. So why is an Edo person masquerading under the ambiguous term SS to feel important before Ndiigbo? How can you reject someone that never wanted you to start with. Edo can join Odua-Arewa, no love found, non lost. Don't just hide under the SS term. If there be any Edo group interested in joining Biafra, we would simply conduct a referendum there and give the people our terms and conditions in Biafra, which I am sure won't be far away from the things Ohanaeze Ndiigbo proposed below, but got rejected by Nigeria. http://www.igbofocus.co.uk/Ohanaeze/OHE2/ohe2.html Of course, there will be some little adjustments to that, adjustments that will make Biafra work better. 18 Likes 1 Share |

The beat economic decision would be to declare our own republic. We would even gain money from taxing the biafran state on anything it wants to import through our air and land space, even waterways since the five biafran states would be landlocked listen let me tell you, Edo people aren't even supposed to be in SS if not for political reasons, you lots better go with your yeroba cousins, that's where you belong. Even if Biafra were to form a country with SS, edo state will not be part of it and mind you, edo was never part of the old eastern region.

IGBOSON1:
^^^What are you on about!?.......Republic of SS states indeed!
I want you to list the ethnic groups that will make up this SS Republic....all because podosci says Igbos will marginalize them! Dude, if i were to ask you to mention the articles of association for ethnic groups that'll make up a Biafra or Lower Niger Republic what would be your answer? Do you actually know on what basis these ethnic groups would come together to form a nation?
So i'm to take it you're saying if Igbos leave Nigeria, you would want the Ijaw, Ibibio/Annag/Efik, Ikwerre, Ogoni, Ogba....and maybe Urhobo to form a country separate from Ndigbo? How do you intend to cajole or threaten those that may want to form a nation with Igbos? Remember your lies and divide-and-rule tactics employed pre and during the Biafra/Nigeria war cannot work today.....everyone is much more enlightened and have access to information at their finger-tips unlike before!
Now i want you to show how Igbos marginalized their neighbours in the past that warrants your assertion; i also want you to tell me if these other ethnic groups in the Niger Delta are today equal to the Hausa/Fulani and Yoruba; i also want you to tell me exactly which ethnic group in the South South you're from....this would help put things in proper perspective!
You say 'it's good to remain in Nigeria'? By this statement i assume you're ok with the status-quo as is presently obtainable?.....I assume so because i've not heard any agitation from you and your ilk for the country to be restructured to reflect how a true fiscally compliant federation should operate!
Cheers! So you don't know that the kingdoms of the south south consider you inferior, you who could never make yourselves (culturally) into one kingdom before the white men came. It is not as if you have even succeeded now. You who never new the boundaries of Igbo land before the white men came (and even long after they came) You who because you never formed yourselves into one political unit, never fought one single war (as the Igbo nation) against any one. For hundreds of years, ancient kingdoms of the south south have had well organized systems plus national militaries. We fought our wars on land disputes. Any attempt by neighbours to claim or annex the tiniest village on the outskirts of our kingdoms would attract the wrath of the full force of our military. So when we look at you, we see clowns. You did nor organise your self in the past, you failed to organise yourselves post-independence, and you still feel a zero need to organise yourselves now. Individually, you achieve, but as a people, you are only to be pitied 2 Likes 1 Share |

[size=13pt]The Language Deception; The Biafran Struggle - The Games of Numbers, Pity, Size, Emotions and Lies. [/size]
Delta Igbo's - Ukwani , Asaba , IBusa , Ugwashi Ukwu , Agbor are not Igbos. Please Igbos stop the misinformation.
6 July 1967 , 14:05 first gun shot was fired, the sound produced to many might be interpreted in different coins, but reality check is it has only one coin. The shot signified the start of a civil war by a supposed Rebelist grouo as they are called, whose motive or agenda is their suppose "freedom and sovereignty ". While the war has come and gone, the happenings of the event has left a sad mark of regrets, bitterness, hatred, Lessons has been learnt, stories have been told, though these stories all have added ingredients to various levels. But truth still has it, the Rebels started the war and the gallant great soldiers of the Federal republic of Nigeria ended the war.
History are of no doubt much relevance as they have a big way of impacting our tomorrow decisions. Prior to the Biafran War, there was no disparity or Igbocism known as " Delta Igbos or River igbos" until the war started, and even while the war has come and gone. Prior to the war, Delta Igbos or River igbos are known as Bendel. However in a bid to brainwash the innocent Nigerians into fighting a war they Igbos brought the term known as Delta -Igbo
Today, there is a recent wake in the struggle of so-called Biafra and in this sensitisations by biafran freedom fighters (so the call themselves), there have been a deliberate misinformation and deception that the Delta - River Igbos are Igbos and as such, should fight for the actualization of Biafra. This deception has been so-reciprocated that the geneology of the Deltans and River Igbos have been changed by the Easterners. It is against this backdrop that this article was written.
Aim of Article is to sensitize Delta - River Igbos, that they are not Igbos and should never accept when to be called one or accept to be used as a tool by rebels to achieve / further their aims and agendas.
An Act of impunity irony, it is that the same people who are fighting for injustice melted on them in non actualization of Biafra, are deliberately and consciously trying to force others who they don't recognize as their own to join their struggle. Series of actions have been seen, which shows that the delta and river igbos are not igbos, however a few is listed below. Note the list is limited but not exhaustive.
1. The Rejection
The people of Anioma has been rejected today as igbo, they are even considered by the as “fake Igbos” who cannot speak Igbo properly, and this rejection has continued till date. Some other rejection events can been seen below In 2007 prelude to the elections. Prof. Pat Utomi (from Ibusa – Delta State), wife solicited the support of the OHANEZE GROUP for her husband presidential ambition. Chief Orji Uzor Kalu also went to solicit for his too. Sadly, he (Pat Utomi) was rejected by the OHANEZE ELDERS. Some reports from Nigerian dailies hankered abject adroitly: “Is he really a proper Igbo man? Look at him; he cannot even speak Igbo properly.” Others even insinuated that his name did not sound Igbo. I was shocked to the bone marrow. I couldn’t believe what I was reading from prominent Igbo citizens. Instead of asking the two candidates to present their programmes and manifestoes, they were busy hankering on whether one of them is a “proper Igbo” or not. I was shocked of words. If any Igbo person does not know the meaning of Utomi, then that person should take a suicidal dive into the river Niger.” Interestingly, Pat Utomi is a member of Ohaneze Ndiigbo.
The appointment of Sir Mike Okiro as the Inspector General of Police is another case of rejection by the igbos. South Eastern Igbos, rejected Sir Mike Okiro in exchange for Ogbonnaya Onovo. This they did on the premise that, Onovo was an Igbo man. Also citing, the presidency act as a deliberate one to marginalize the Igbos, preventing them, from occupying such a sensitive position. What does this makes Mike Okiro? A tribeless person or an outcast? 2. SELF SELECTION Power and success they say attracts friends, people. This is evident in the igbos way of life. The igbos only consider the Anioma people of Delta state as Igbos when such a person has achieved enviable marks or for their selfish interest in their suppose struggle for a Non-Existent Biafra. The igbos are always quick to say that people like Jay Jay Okocha, Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, Sunday Oliseh, Kingsley Obodo, Jim Ovia, Tony Elumelu, Sebastian Adigwe, Francis Atuche, Nuel Ojei, Peter Okocha, Sunny Odogwu and a host of other super stars who all hail from Delta State, along with notable ones from Rivers State like Chioma Ajunwa, Comdedian Julius Agwu to mention a few, are igbos. The Igbos acception of Paul Dike's ascension as Defence Chief was one case of self selection.
3. NO SYMPATHY. In matters that require external support, South Easternerns are non sympathetic to the cause of the Delta State - Anioma or River State – Ikwere speaking Igbo zone. An epitome example was during the clamor to create Anioma State out of Delta State. Regardless of the benefits this will have for the Igbos (in times of election, 2-3rd rule of constitution), little seems to be done by the governors of the Igbo states or even the Ohanaeze in this regard. Infact the Ohaneze group in 2007 Openly said the creation of Anioma state will lead to more state for the South-South and claim it was a propaganda by the Yorubas to have more power. The question is how? Do the Ohaneze read maps? Are Ohaneze elders educated? Why should someone say the creation of Anioma is propaganda by the Yorubas? Is this a statement accepting the fact that Deltans are Yorubas?
4. POLICTICAL AND GEOGRAPHICAL Delta and River state igbos are not in the east. So should not be called eastern. Politically and geographically, they are not in the east. It is the same with Yorubas in Benin Republic. They do not look up to Western Nigeria in political matters.
You see the river Niger? It separates Deltans from the igbos. Its a natural demarcation of boundary. Easterners take Note. See picture Below:
5. Ethnicity / Name / Linguistic
Aniocha, Ukwani, Asaba, Ibusa People are not igbos. They are ethnic group speaking a language that is linguistically similar to Igbo language. Something makes Umu- igbo sees themselves as always superior. Igbo, Delta igbos, Ukwuani, Ekpeye, Ogba & Ikwerre are familiar tribes. Let everyone respect each other instead of claiming the territories of one another. The greediest among these tribes is Igbo.
All over the world we have distinct tribes with similar language and no one claims that the other person is answering his name so he must be Igbo.
Spanish and Portuguese – they both answer names like Diego, Jose, Fernando but the Portuguese man doesn’t wake up to tell the Spanish man that you are answering my name and you are Portuguese. When a Portuguese man answers Rodriguez it’s a portugese name similarly when a Spanish man answers Rodriguez it becomes a Spanish name. NO ONE OWNS THE NAME.
Uhrobo and Isoko – They both answer names like Afoke, Oghene. Bini, Esan, Etsako – They are also different languages. I don’t mean dialects Eleme and Ogoni – Some similar names but again different language and no one claims the other. Ukwuani ,Ikwerre, Ekpeye, Ogba, and Igbo language – Big problem because the Igbo’s say we are answering their names but let me point out that if an Igbo man answers Chukwu it’s an Igbo name, If an Ukwuani man answers Chukwu it becomes an Ukwuani name similarly when an ikwerre man answers Chukwu its now an Ikwerre name. Itsekiri and Yoruba language – they also have same problems with Yoruba’s but let them speak for themselves.
6. ORIGIN / LINEAGE.
Both the eka and agbor have always had their culture guarded strongly in the face of oppositions, Delta Igbo people know where they come from and are proud of their origin , they have a long history of kingship and culture that is why many people will not let them be. New it is not, for a tribe to have two or more ancestory e.g take itshekiri, they have both benin and yoruba ancestory , but that does not make them benin or yoruba, today they are know as itshekiris .
The people of Delta Igbos should not be drawn into arguments with those who do not know their history and who do not know their culture and whose sole arguements rely on nearness of language as a proof of where a people come from. An historian knows that due to migrations, trade and other factors there can be change in language.
I laugh hysterically at igbos, when they say agbohs are igbos. Let me clear this misunderstanding. First can do you know what the term 'agbor' means in igbo language ?
History has it, that agbor was called ogungunagbon or agbon , which means earth in benin language and the british changed it to agbor in 1906. Most eka, agbor, anioma , ukwani , ibusa, ugwashi ukwu were benin princes and people from ishan land in ancient times and later other groups of migrants came from igboland, some from yorubaland e.t.c. They dress like binis, maintain same dances like okangan, ojerimas and oje like binis. Their traditional gods are same as theirs like ovia, uhunmwunde, idigun, olokun etc.
Chieftancy titles in Agbor are same as ihondor, ologbosere, ihama, obaseki, ihondor, benin and so on. Towns are divided into three ( ebon, idumu and oge) and Language spoken are two ( ozara and ika , ozara is edoid while ika is a mix of bini and igbo). There are still titles that if you want to take in some villages in agbor today, you must go to benin , where the original founder came from to collect things and receive blessings of approval. It will interest you knowing that all ika and agbor kings are benin princes and the present dein of agbor is same royal blood family with the omonoba of benin. However all these do not the agbor binis or igbos but Deltans who know their ancestral origin.
It is good for people to consult natives of a place and ask them of their history , before the write on it. Anioma is a big place , i know the igbo language plays a part in anioma history, but not all aniomas migrated from igboland and their are about 11 languages spoken there like ozara, ika, olokumi ( old yoruba), igalla, aboh, etc . that is the reason why no proper ika man will join any group like ohaneze, Agbor have their own group called the ika group, and they support anioma people.
At this juncture it is important to state that the delta people have cultural afinities and that people of asaba, oshimili, ogwashi, ubulu-uku , ukwani, agbor should not be termed igbos.
CONCLUSION One danger in the game of numbers as currently play by the Eastern Igbos is that they never conceal their plan to deny those other tribes who will join them in actualising their non-actualisable dream, the benefits that go with such.
Its important that so called Biafra Apologists, Pro-Biafrans or Independent People of Biafrans, desist from calling these aforementioned zones as Igbos in other to further their propaganda of a non-actualisable Biafra or for personal grounds.
They are not igbos. Enough is enough! Stop the lie lies!

So you don't know that the kingdoms of the south south consider you inferior, you who could never make yourselves (culturally) into one kingdom before the white men came. It is not as if you have even succeeded now.
You who never new the boundaries of Igbo land before the white men came (and even long after they came)
You who because you never formed yourselves into one political unit, never fought one single war (as the Igbo nation) against any one.
For hundreds of years, ancient kingdoms of the south south have had well organized systems plus national militaries.
We fought our wars on land disputes. Any attempt by neighbours to claim or annex the tiniest village on the outskirts of our kingdoms would attract the wrath of the full force of our military.
So when we look at you, we see clowns.
You did nor organise your self in the past, you failed to organise yourselves post-independence, and you still feel a zero need to organise yourselves now.
Individually, you achieve, but as a people, you are only to be pitied
Since when has banding up to form a unit to invade other people's lands, conquer them, and take spoils of war now seen as something to be proud of. You accuse Igbos of land grabbing, when we never did such, yet you derive pleasure in knowing that you terrorized and grabbed people's lands, can you smell your hypocrisy? An unorganized group have managed to produce a first military president, a civilian president, a speaker of house, a Senate president, all the damn Post Nigeria can ever offer, name it, and they have had them all. An unorganized group has the most developed human resources in Nigeria. This unorganized group that practiced democracy in its purest form when Greece was still uninhabited, will always naturally be ahead of you! https://www.nairaland.com/237534/look-going-school-nigeria-statistics https://www.nairaland.com/2263635/south-east-south-west-south-south-lead-attainment 16 Likes 1 Share |

podosci: You seriously misunderstand me....The south south states have nothing to gain from the five eastern states, that's what I am saying Somebody asked you some very simple questions here and you have ignored it and went on ranting. Why not enlighten us on the south south states and their origins. Or tell us where you are from and your history. Or rather still make an intelligent assertion that will convince a normal right thinking human. Isn't a shame you do not know your history? There are so many avenues available for even the lamest man to get knowledge. You are using one of it for nairaland now. Do not perish for lack of knowledge. IPOB Youth 5 Likes |

But Nzeogwu was from Delta State, though, there was nothing like Delta State before the war and his coup was tagged Igbo coup. During 1966 genocide in the North, the Deltans and others were tagged Igbos and massacred. Again, Murtala Mohammed gathered hundreds of young men in Delta State and shot them just in a bid to deal with Igbos. Yet, you said Igbos brainwashed them to fight the war. You try to separate Igbos to achieve your political interest and after that you dump and tag them Igbos. Yes, they are Igbos, but I don't want Ikwerres to join us because we Igbos don't need them. Anybody with Igbo name and speak Igbo is Igbo. There was nothing like South-south in any map in the world. The name South-south was introduced to further divide Igbos, and state was human creation and not from God. The God had already created them Igbo no matter the state you drafted them into. The Ijaws have learned their lessons that they were dining with their enemies for so long. 6 Likes |
