We d Ukwuanis will neva accept Igbo or delta igbo as our ethnicity.if an ukwuani man wants to bcome a president of Nigeria 2day,it is d same igbos dat will pull him down and say dat he's a deltan & not a true igbo..we d Ukwuani people who ar d largest in anioma region of delta state hav our own seperate Ethnic identity as Ukwuani/ndokwa.it is different 4rm d igbo ethnicity.we hav will carry our destiny in our own hands by ourselvs.our history is as old as d igbo history.SO U IGBOS CAN GO 2 HELL!!!

victor1464:
D aniocha/oshimili people speaks d same tongue as d igbos dats y dey r bin refered 2 as delta igbos.unlike we d ukwuanis who speaks our language in a unique way.it is d only languge we hav and we can afford to drop our languge and culture 4 dat of d igbos."d plantain remains a plantain while d bannana remains a banana",d cocount remains its identity while d palm kernel retains its identity too".I hav no doubt on some of ur proves but i will rather prefer if an igbo man is called an ukwuani man..we d ukwuanis must preserve our history,language and culture.ukwuani is not igbo or DELTA IGBO...even d ekpeyes,ikwerre,ogbia people dont agree dat word..If d word "igbo" means somtin good in igbo language,d ukwuani people rebukes d word because it means somtin bad in our language meanin "slaves". Ukwuani is a tribe take it or live it...... i hav no doubt on some of u proves anyway.i know dat ukwuani language is more linguistically similar 2 Igbo language dan d Edo language just as we hav in any other part of nigeria & d world. The igala language is similar to yoruba but dat dosn't make dem yoruba..althoug there r still some edo words in ukwuani language if u dont know dis.
One tin dat baffles me most is dat d igbos regects bini orgin but d other igboid tribes such as Ukwuani,ika,ekpeye,ogba,and ikwerre people hav it in their history,tradition and folklore dat dey originated 4rm d bini empire..dis simply mean dat both d igbos too r 4rm d bini origin.y r igbos denyin it?? Dis is to tell u dat dis igboid tribes r d real people.d igbos want to impose themselves on us because we r d minority tribes.we cant let dat happen..i hav observed it dat d igbo man hates a bini man.im sure its because of d way dat dey were being maltreated by d anciet bini empires because igbos r very arrogant.dey dont respect peoples opinion.dats one problem wit dem.....;. we d igboids still trace our route 2d bini origin weda they like it or not. I wonda y d igbos r still denying..we d utagba people who r d major clan in NDOKWA land dont hav our history linked or traced to dat of d igbos. we r d core ukwuani people who know our origin..unless those of d late immigrants who settled around d river banks and speak more of igbo...anyway d anioma people r like bothers and sisters no doubt and no one can seperate us....d igbos must accept d bini origin.dats d only way dat we can unite ourselves ..tnks mr.enuani

ekumeku1914:
Please why all these insults because of identity. we need to learn to respect one another because respect is reciprocal. If the Aniomas or ukwuanis or ndokwas say they are not Igbo, the Igbo must respect their choice and move on. You cant force people to follow you. Spanish and portuguese and Catalonians are a bit mutually comprehensible but do not insist on being the same. The same with german and dutch, and all Scandinavians. This doesn't mean that the ukwuani people do not have love for the igbos or feel closer to them than other peoples. They grew up side by side and are cousins regardless but that does not make Ukwuani Igbo as that does not make Igbo Ukwuani.

You no due rest..you have made your point then let others say what you are .. don't be the butterfly that assumes that its a bird .. its no problem but other tribes knows the Igbo

Let me give you a true life story

I met my wife when we I was in Benin and I have never heard of ukwuani and they call it kwale...thought its one funny growl group of people but when we started dating she told me her name was ngozi I was like maybe her mum was Igbo so I let go..she was pretty I must say and she is still pretty... but my urhobo friend a woman Mama Ochuko wanted me to date her daughter possibly marry her but u know we igbos never loved that idea but still didn't know that my wife was Igbo cos we used yo speak English then ..mama Ochuko told me that you left my daughter cos she is urhobo to marry your Igbo sister

I told her that she is kwale I just love her..she said that kwale are igbos and the real name is ukwuani then I was in my mid twenties maybe 25..then to be sure I started speaking Igbo to my girlfriend then she started speaking Igbo also...note this is in Benin far away from Igbo land ..I noticed that she speaks exactly like uguta.. been brought up in IMO state I came to know various dialects from IMO.I asked my uguta friend does he know ukwuani he categorically told me that ukwuani and guitar are kins

Since then we have been best of friends we got married and I have never regretted my ogume beauty just that they plant weed so much and isoko mentality is making ukwuani very complacent but they are Igbo..from our traditional marriage its exactly the same with ours we do not need an interpreter for us to make love

My dear you might say you are not Igbo that's understandable cos there is some immigrants and exiled Benin felons that was exiled to ukwuani and they have the right to say that but do not say all..cos I have seen tons and tons of ukwuani that say they are Igbo here in Lagos . They call them omo Igbo they don't object
.my best neighbour is obiaruku man he doesn't say he isn't Igbo same with ojugbele and oputa....

Its not me that will say your either Igbo or Hausa but other tribes will remind you that

Alusi mee any how agwa ya osisi ejiri pia ya.. that's an Igbo proverb in IMO dialect

Pls note that we have many Igbo dialect

Do you know that we have igbos in cross river state..the present governor of that state is from Igbo cross river imoke and sunny nneji also but you won't see him disclaim that do you know we have igbo in akwa income also...what about Benue

Igbo is an ethnicity not a tribe ..ukwuani Nnewi etc are tribes under Igbo nation or ethnicity

So your free to claim British but remember talk for yourself not for others

When the king of aboh or Eze ukwuani comes out to say they are not Igbo then I can believe you..these ate the custodians of culture not you

You are nobody so your submissions are nothing

Try and be somebody so that you can be taken seriously

That's my submission

christopher123:



Don't you get it....I believe that you must be just draft ....I told you. Give me translatio . Of ukwuani language of any word and your culture let me know if I can trace Benin from it.....


Is that hard....I laugh...you made my vacation easier....the way you think its petty .you just think clanish.I am in Europe now and I see how eastern countries come to join europe but you were or are here been clanish ..instead of coming together as an Igbo

I know that you are afraid of been pure Igbo cos you might not meet up with Igbo standard of hard working so you take refuge in nonigbo thing....


Wish you luck

Pure Igbo I am
My wife pure Igbo from ogume


Now go and rest in peace


I do not take you serious nor any ukwuani that disclaims Igbo


I will only listen to elders and kings of ukwuani not you

victor1464:
99% of ukwuani people dont understand igbo language.except for those who hav interacted or lived in igboland..im full blooded kwale but i cant understand igbo.even my grand parents who s above 100yrs dont understand igbo.ukwuani is our first language.we dont know igbo..the language tonation is totally different despite few similarity in words.
Igbo is spoken as a general language in igboland despite d various dialect.its also taught to pupils at d pri/sec level in igboland.but in Ndokwa land,ukwuani is d general language of d people and its also taught at d pri/sec level of education. So d difference is clear.dey r two similar languages,just like ekoi,efik,ibibio,n annang languages.urobo/isoko.igala/idoma. Dats wat im makin u to understand here.

victor1464:
Now i know dat u r confused..i gave d meanin of d words in ukwuani languge and yet u re not satisfied.hmmmmmm!igbo man is full of greed..i also heard dat d igbos has started claimin lagos state of nigeria as their own.very funny people!!infact ojukwu(biafran leader) was d greediest igboman on earth.you r just a learner

Now tell me why you are sounding so frausterated I just asked you a simple question you resort to insults

I am so doing it to ascertain the level of intelligence in you and you are making me see how silly daft and stupid you are



Who made you spokesman and how can you a son of exiled ostracized Benin immigrant dare speak for a spokesman


Don't you know your history

My dear your just nobody and will continue to be no body

Ukwuani and Aboh king has never said they are not Igbo so I will go with them not an idiot like you


Now go and rest in peace
