Most stupid question of the year if you ask me. I'm not much of an Igbo speaker but i do know Ukwu = Low and Ani = Land (Ukwuani) in Igbo means LowLand just as Enu = High and Ani = Land (Enuani) means HighLand .And some morons are still asking if they are Igbos

Love you all

AndreUweh:

The above post is rubbish. Why not say Owoh and Yoruba are similar and not the same. Also, why not say Offa and Yoruba are not the same but similar. You hardly see iidiots making this type of argument. When it comes to the Igbo, people tend to display their stupidy by claiming; Ukwuani is not Igbo but similar, Okigwe is not Igbo but similar etc. Why can't drop-outs in Nairaland know that in Igboland just like in Yorubaland, there are so many dialectical variations.
foolishness always manifest itself. if you can't make a valid point without insult then you shouldn't be quoting me

Ukwani musicians always sing in a language very close to central Igbo. anybody that understands Igbo will understand Ukwani music without much stress but I bet you won't understand much when they speak it. I think that's their strategy to get more people listen to their music

[color=#990000][/color]just as many before me has commented, the thing about ethnicity is about self identification. If the ukwanis say they are not igbos it is ok. But the question is do they see themselves as not igbos out of well founded and informed choice? Or a mere minority sentiment held by certain mischievous persons? I think it is high time we told them, we are igbos not because a monolithic language place us as one but because we have traces of certain linguistic variants.

@ poster,
Ukwani people are not Ibo. period. i can give you several examples.

languages:

1. when an ukwani wants to end a discusion especially with elders. they end it with ( Ishiegwali) thats not igbo. the Urhobohs call it (Misegwari)

most ukwani names are sometimes Bini like.
infact let me get these facts and get back to this thread.

please be patient with me.

shut up guy. You people are becoming a laughing stock. Isheguari and ishi agwuli are entirely two different things. What's the problem with you guys?

For your information the ukwani people are a mixture of southern Igbo and igarra people respectively

If they claim to know their history and say they are not igbos why not let them be.must your force your identity on them

Watch Ukwuani people argue it out themselves and as you can see the pro-Igbo guy had no stress proclaiming his Igboness with very simple points whereas the anti-Igbo guy's flimsy point is that Igbos bare Kelechi whereas his name is Kenechi ignorantly not knowing that Northern Igbos bare Kenechi while Kelechi is more popular in the South. There is nothing more difficult than defending falsehood

if ukwuani says they are not igbos it doesn't mean they are not of igbo stock. ok


Onitsha people and Anam and even Aguleri the ancestral igbo shrine call us igbos ,onye igbo


therefore it better to reverse the topic to what is the political meaning of the term 'Onye Igbo'
