Look at the column for indigenous spoken languages in the state.
Rubbish! Border towns have always interacted but the people maintain their identities.

The Opobos and Ogonis of Rivers State understand basic Ibibio 'cause they are close to Akwaibom communities but certainly not 'Ibibiod'. Heck! Our meals are even similar yet we do not go about forcing the Ibibio tag on them.

The Ikas and Obot Akaras are Annangs (Ibibiod) who understand Igbo but are they are purely Annangs all the same.

There are Akwaibom L.G.As who border Abia; hence they understand Igbo and vice versa. Get your facts rights!

P.S: Half the supposed 'languages' in the quoted link are slightly varieting dialects of Ibibio just like there are various dialects of the Yoruba and Igbo languages.

The Ndoki-Igbo are Igbo people, and they are spread in 3 states of Akwaibom, Abia and Rivers, no thanks to boundary adjustment of 1976.
How hard is this for you to understand?

The Ndoki are an Igbo-speaking group which inhabit a vast area located around the southern most fringe of the Imo river and sprawls into three states of Nigeria, namely Abia, Akwa Ibom and Rivers. They are mainly farmers, traders and fishermen.

First of all, politics is the only influence that matters.


Subsequently, assuming you're igbo, whats the point of being influential if the only influence you have is negative? Igbos arent known for the little victories they inflate and brag about, around the world nigerians are frowned upon as criminals and crooks. No one meets a nigerian in any foreign country and thinks good about him immediately. This is all your fault, its your doing. You are known for drug dealing, fraud and every other form of lowlife activities. And you go about beating your chest like the gorillas you are about how great you are just shut the f--k up!

You are unpatriotic, arrogant, foolish, myopic and single handedly ruined this country. I yearn for the day somebody will chase you monkeys back to your forests and give you your independence, lets see how long you will last before you implode. Apologies to the very few intelligent and humble igbos, but most of you lot are repulsive and truly ignorant.

Is it me you thought you could talk to like that?
