With less than 40 comments after having over a thousand views showed that the community of vultures hovered over this thread when they saw the title but on opening it discovered a discussion tangential to their expectations.

Yari.ba are known for too many things however there are few which ominously came to mind – loudmouth and cowardice. Each of these characteristics tends to support each other in Yari.ba. With Yari.bas’ loudmouth, they can convince ill-educated troll to tend to their biddings. As for cowardice, Yari.ba can deny him or herself the benefit of ancestral lineage in the face of aggressor. Nigeria that is bent out of shape today has the markings of Yari.ba diabolical machinations. Any Igboid who denies being Igbo or none Igboid in southern Nigeria who fans the ember of anti-Biafra sentiment had more than a mere close relationship with Yari.ba people. I lived in the Yari.ba land and played Yari.ba to the hip, they do not disappoint while on NL. They will never allow any good thing in Nigeria to exist outside Yari.ba land. The emergency of Republic of Igbo land or re-confederated Biafra or even Niger Delta Republic is regarded by domesticated Yari.ba person as a calculated endangerment to Yari.ba land. I have no regard or feeling of humanity for any Igboid who dreamingly forgot in a moment that he or she is Igbo. There are hidden reasons why the entire ethnic groups in Nigeria except very few had to join forces, apparently egged on by their imperialist masters, to precipitate war against Biafra. The funny aspect of the entire saga is the need for “One-Nigeria” when the Yari.ba demigod in one goofy Awolowo stated that “West and East of Nigeria are as different as Ireland from Germany” and the North of Nigeria is as different from either as China”. 2 Likes |

Please stop this madness, we are not igbos, I'm from mbaitoli in imostate, and we speak mbaitoli, we don't speak igbo. We share similiarities with ibos ie names, and a few igboid words but that's it. We have a right to our identity. We are mbaitolis. WE ARE NOT igbos. 3 Likes |

Yeske2:Yes many don't want to be called Igbo due to reasons best known to them. They owe much allegiance to their clan than the larger Igbo group. This is the case of the Ikwerre, Ika, Ndokwa, and largely within the Ngwa clan. Many of these group fear that embracing fully the Igbo tag and identity may wipe off the remaining unique trait and cultural consciousness of their clan. And when you try forcing this one indivisible Igbo idea to them, they react offensively and speak ill of you. In defending their stance you'll hear words like this amongst the denials: 'we are not Igbo but Ikwerre', 'we have our own dialect which is different from the central Igbo language promoted by the British and forced on us to speak'. If you tell them that even the Ikwerre dialect can be found in the Igbo bible and central language, you'll see a stern look from their face and hear words like 'Why will you use other neigbouring clans like the Isu, Uratta, Uhuhu and Agbaja to compare us, if they wholly accepted this Igbo ethnic tag and suddenly became the vanguard of Igbo unity should you now join them and sell it to us'. 'We are comfortable with our Ikwerre tag and let other busy body hinterland clans accept our decision'. These are few words you hear from the willing ones reasonable to discuss with you about their denial. Even now, majority of the Ikwerre people who are pro-Igbo tend to blame the then Eastern regional government for what they saw as carelessness on its part for not understanding the fears of the Ikwerre and other sub-groups who now claim minority status - something the Ngwa of yore would have done if they had the chance. We know the climax of the Ikwerre denial came as a result of Gowons state creation and the preceeding civil war. But truth be told. Had Zik allowed Barr Nwonodi( of Rebisi) become mayor of P/H rather than the Oguta born honourable (both of whom were from the same Owerri province) the agitation by the likes of Eze Origi, Wali, Eze Worluchem, Chief Uchendu, Elechi Amadi et al wouldn't have been birthed. The Ikwerre just like the Ngwas of Aba felt that having their son as Mayor will give them a say in the politics of P/H and that the fears they had nurtured as a result of the immigrant and energetic hinterlanders who were coming in droves to the industrial city will be well managed when there is respect and mutual understanding. Yes they sold off large portions of their lands to their hinterland brothers, but they were also loosing jobs (railway, ports and new oil establishments) to these hinterlanders also. Many of whom were highly educated than the largely laid back Ikwerre population. Also, majority of the hinterlanders from the Onitsha province were too clannish, full of themselves and over bearing with their wealth and status. The Willinks commission carried in their report many of the Ikwerre and minorities grievances. But Zik and Okpara did little to contain these fears! Maybe they were convinced that just like the Nsukka, Nkanu and Owerri people who nurtured such fears as a result of immigrant population and later moved on into productivity, that the indigent communities of Aba and P/H will finally learn to streamline their fears into effective ingenuity, enterprise and communal development. It later worked for Aba. However, despite the Igbo domination sentiments majority of the Ikwerre people dusted up themselves to compete. But a storm came along! the civil war which saw brothers taking sides with the enemy soldiers who banded a false hope of liberation and emancipation from their hinterland brothers. We heard of the abandoned property saga - a dark age in the annals of the Igbo race. The mistake had been made by our fore-bearers yes! But, for the younger ones who are bent on restoring the Ikwerre into the Igbo fold and mending broken bridges. The question should be how do we make sure the past dosen't repeat itself again and how do we guard the Igbo unity against external enemies who wish our downfall. Because even now many Ikwerrrians are supporters of the Biafran agenda, many are pro-Niger Delta but secretly wish to mend fences with the Igbo. My advice to the SE Igbo is this: Learn to stop vilifying the Ikwerre, Ika and Ndokwa anytime someone spring up to start the denial, learn from the likes of Pazienza by trying to find common ground that can give room for understanding. 3 Likes 1 Share |

chrisblack: Deluded ass-licking slave, the call for self-determination doesn't mean advocating war! You bigots have used every known tricks to attempt to quench the call for self-determination. As if that's not enough stupidity you proceeded to threaten Igbos with war, total annihilation and seizure of Igbo properties across the country. This is not 1967-70 era where world powers with Egyptian bombers helped you to fight Biafra for close to 3 years and yet you couldn't kill the dream. There's freedom of association and so the earlier you begin channelling your negative energies towards consolidating your OduaArewanistan republic the better for your health or else brace up for more sleepless nights and terrible nightmares... |

VirginFinder: There's freedom of association and so Yorubas are ever free to merge themselves with Lukunmi, Bini, Esan, Itsekiri, Urhobo and any other interested ethnic group. Instead of poke nosing into every Igbo thread that would cause you more heartaches you can start a thread on the Lukunmi & co issue with a view to consolidating your OduaArewanistan republic. |
