All the Deltans I know in real life, even those who speak Igbo fluently, always insist they are not Igbo. There's a very old couple I know, the baba is in his seventies, he simply hates being called Igbo, yet he speaks the language.

That is identity crisis a higher form of stupidity and highest form of inferior complex

Just pity him

why are you trying very hard to educate dunderheads like him. He pretends he doesn't know that there are Igbo in delta and rivers, these are monkeys that even call efiks, ijaws, ibibios, omo ibo Stop educating the yoruba monkey, they have been on their knees begging their allah to create a problem between SE Igbos and "SS" Igbos, Ijaws, ogonis etc since the Eastern bloc voted as one the last election. The north has abandoned them, now they are looking for allies in the south. yorubas are done for in this contraption, God help them.
I think you suffer from delusion of persecution,making you to assume that ANYONE THAT DOES NOT SUPPORT IGBO/BIAFRA ON NAIRALAND MUST BE A YORUBA. FYI YModulus(who opened this thread) is a Hausa/Fulani man from Katsina.
Your assertion that Yorubas are doom in Nigeria reflect the thought of your infantile mind...NO ETHNIC GROUP IS DOOM IN NIGERIA.

Why Are Igbos Trying So Hard To Claim Delta Igbos are igbos?

"Delta Igbos" are Igbos that have their ancestral homes in the Delta.


The OP went to almajiri night school and is not far from being a dull@rd.

I am my mother is from Aboh and my father from Ogwashi ukwu.

I always tell Yoruba propagandists to leave us the neck alone. We know who we are. Until Okowa took over, you guys made sure you frustrated every attempt for an Anioma man to rule. suddenly We are SUPPOSED to be yorubas.

Your Dad is not far from the truth.

Deltans are really More of Yorubas, descendants of the Bini kingdom which genealogy traces back to Oduduwa. Deltans should be call yorubas and not igbos

Have you been to delta before?

How many tribe are incorporated?

Yes we the igbo speaking Delta's are Igbos

I am from Isele-Ukwu in Aniocha North Local Government Area of Delta State.

We speak igbo but a different version of the one spoken in the South East.

My Grand Father have always told me the history of how we came to reside across the River Niger.

If Biafra should exist today, We are part of it.
Yoruba people una no dey tire?

Carrying Biafra matter for head like gala

There is no particular type of Igbo spoken in the Southeast. My mother's place, for instance, Ohafia has a rare breed of Igbo. There are different dialects of Igbo in the Southeast, some far differentiated from the mainstream Igbo than Delta Igbo is. That's why I argue that Ika and Ikwerre are Igbo. If Ohafia people or Nsukka people are Igbo, then Ikwerre and Ika are! !

I asked myself several times if you went to school. Did you read the emphatic stress in my reply? " in the movie ".

Gosh at this point I believe when asked who the fool is between I and you. The question needs no answer.

Thanks

You aren't making any sense at all.

You picked up lines from a movie and you're trying to present a serious point with it. For crying out loud, that statement was made in a movie. Any movie producer or script writer can include anything he wants in his movie, but that doesn't mean it's true in reality.

Moreover, it could simply be an individual opinion, and not a collective thing. I had a classmate in the university who despite bearing Igbo name claimed he wasn't Igbo. There are people like that, but that doesn't mean most Igbos in Delta deny being Igbo. As a matter of fact, only a few do.

Why not present a video where a well known Nigerian from Delta Igbo denied being Igbo in real life?

We are not claiming all deltans are igbos, we are only claiming our blood brothers in delta state. (The igbo speaking deltans), we are not leaving without them. The same applies to igbos in Rivers and Edo state respectively. We not claiming the whole of Rivers state or Edo state. But we can't leave one inch of Biafra /igbo speaking fellow behind

L

So you are claiming Anioma, Ikwerre and other igbo speaking areas , are they yours to claim? The way you guys shout claim is highly derogatory, you talk as if they are your property and have no say in where they wish to belong. Because someone speak and dresses like igbo does not mean they must be Biafan by force.

What do you mean you can't leave one inch of igbo speaking fellow behind? Are you going to subjugate and colonize them?

For clarity sake, Rita Domnic is from Imo state. In the movie however, she is from Delta, but u cannot base your argument on a movie. That is akin to equating yoruba's to fetishism because that is what most movies depict. You should know that a movie is simply one man's idea.

Secondly, Delta is a state comprising of different ethnic groups- Igbo, Urohbo, itshekiri, Yoruba and others. It is wrong for you to say "Deltans" when it is not a single entity. I will not call you Hausa because you are from the north.

Lastly, Igbo people are not trying to force themselves on anybody. The igbo's from Delta are proudly Igbo's. They have obi' s and Igwe's. They practice igbo cultures and traditions and bear Igbo names. They are members of the Ohaneze. Get your facts right!

Ymodulus you are a confirm bigotted tribalist, You said deltans are not Igbo whereas the president in its media chat stated and I quote"what do the igbo's want? Are they not occupying the seat of CBN governor and the Petroleum(state)minister et al.

You just observed that the Igbos agitation for biafra is at its peak now you want to apply your method of divide and rule. Honestly my friend it can't work cos the evil agenda hidden to keep Nigeria together has been exposed.

The centre is no longer holding.

Deltans are not Igbo infact they are Kanuri's.

Maybe I should call you a kid if you believe all facts said in the Nollywood movie,if you reaLly understand that movie(The meeting)Rita Dominic said that to the lady inorder to show she can't be compromised even though she come from the same region with the lady that was asking her question.

That's all I tell you for now.
