Just In!!! Igbo Identity: The 'ika' (anioma) Question - Kanu (must Read) by AmadiAba: 5:09pm On Mar 31, 2017
Dear Igbos on social media,

As regards the trending "IKA not IGBO" issue, let me advice everyone of us.

First off...

We shouldn't disrespect or deride our 'Igbo brothers' from Anioma because of some inconsequential rapscallions only dealing with inferiority complex and seeking attention on social media.

Its not worth it.

Secondly...

You know whom you are as Igbo, you know your root & you have a huge identity. Please stop giving yourself a migraine over some of those who don't know whom they are, some of those who don't know their root & some of those with extreme identity crisis.

Don't coerce anyone who doesn't wish being Igbo to be "Igbo".

Lest you forget...

1. You are Igbo, you are Africa's most intelligent & successful ethnic Nationality.

2. You are Igbo, you are from Africa's most thriving & progressive ethnic group in World wide diaspora.

3. You are Igbo, you possess Africa's most outstanding innate attributes.

4. You are Igbo, you are that African who ingeniously excel in all spheres of endeavours and IN ALL CONDITIONS. 'Others' only emulate.

I can go on outlining more facts about Ndi-Igbo which doesn't have mere cocky standings, but have been 'asserted' by anthropologists & international cross-racial researchers; Not even claims by Igbo locals walking the streets of Abakaliki, Owerri, Enugu, Umuahia & Awka.

The unceasing preposterous outburst & name-calling by most of those claiming "IKA not IGBO" are some of the reasons those advocating for homogeneous Igbo set-up may not be viewed as unreasonable or divisive.

I urge you, as "the Igbo", to ALLOW ANYONE be "the Ika" or whatever he/she so wish. Its just their 'personal choice' which, quite funnily, CANNOT even change facts about whom they really are.

Don't be bothered about theirs; Just be "the Igbo" and be very proud of it.

I shouldn't remind you that, based on Igbo exploits of unmatchable status, you are the most recognized & celebrated African ethnic majority. What more can you ask for?

From History the Ika people were aboriginal igbos who were the first to be colonized by the Bini kingdom. After they were conquered, many Bini renegade warriors ran into the area and mixed with the aboriginals. There were 3strings of movement to the present day Ika land, first from the Igbo hinterland, second from the Bini lands where their generals were trying runaway from the oba and third was during ezechima return back to Onitsha area. they were the highest struck by the Bini rule and so many of their cultures adulterated due to these facts.

This sort of thread is not necessary. Kanu was never chasing an Igbo agenda.
