The secretary of ohaneze is an Ikwerre man the former was an ika man...I am from Delta North I am Igbo , Don Wanna the criminal is Ikwerre and Igbo....is amaechi a Yoruba name
Is ifeanyi Okowa a Yoruba name or is Nyesom (N)wike an ijaw name ...maybe when Amaechi said he is more Igbo than Ekweremadu ...did you say he is mad ? Or maybe Dino Meleye isn't a Yoruba name

Funny lots

The ijebu are not Yoruba and they said it
The Egun are not Yoruba and they said it also



Stupidity is when you can't differentiate a dialect from a language

Probz:


They’re only Igbo because they don’t want to be but all that’s sentiments. They are what they are.

I have met many Yoruba from Edo , Egun , ijebu say they aren't Yoruba also ...but do we believe them ?


A butterfly might assume and identify as a bird but we k ow it's an insect

OP you should learn more about Fulani and Hausa. I know you surely knows they are not desame tribe,
Stop being lazy

Oya now Mentioned Hausa and Fulani tribe Good and bad qualities. This time around do it differently.

Yoruba : Are Bright people , Can cook , Their Girls are heartwarming, Very Friendly people . , Party Tribe, Cheerful. Smart tribe , Romantic. Caring, Forgiving.

Bad Qualities: They are Hypocrites, Very Dirty, Their men are Mayun mata ne went gaga when they see light skin girls , Yoruba cheat in relationship. They like
to much partying. Greed. Noisy tribe.


Igbos

Good Qualities: Self-reliance, Hard working. Beautiful girls ( With classWould do anything for the man they love). Played hard to get .Tall Handsome men.


Bad Qualities: Fraudsters, Betrayal for wealth and Political position, Alcohol is their synonym. Disrespectful. Loud people to much love for money. Genetically unfit.

jikan I don't know of your list but different observations are allowed

ikpumadu, do you know dat portuguese answer Diego but doesn't make dem Spanish, tribes may speak same language but ve different customs, dressings, foods, e.t.c(like yoruba n itsekiri)I don't want 2 fight u, me I'm also a delta boy from ughelli who lives in port harcourt, u say ure from delta north I'm guessing asaba or anoda aniocha/enuani town cuz dat is only where we ve pure Igbos in delta, but if u see a man from kwale, who grew up in delta ask him if his Igbo n see his response(kwale is a neighbour to my village), ask an ikwerre man in ph, 88% will tell u there nt Igbo. Same language doesn't mean same tribe( example Urhobo n Isoko). Ukwuanis n ikwerres may be Igbo(MAYBE I don't know) but mixture of oda tribes like Edo has changed them, so Igbos can't claim dem, jus as Urhobos are from Edo, but mixture with Ukwuani n Ijaw has changed them n Edo can no longer claim them,

IkpuMmadu:


Ukwuani, Ika , Ikwerre are Igbo

Ijebu and Egba are infact not Yoruba!

So we can agree that egun, ijebu , egba are not Yoruba right ?

If ukwuani ikwerre aren't Igbo

It means that egun, ijebu , egba , akoko are not Yoruba because they have different dialect and customs from Oyo who are the proper Yoruba

Urhobo n Isoko ve same language, custom, dressing, food, dance, evritin with minor variations, but nobody in delta says isoko pepo r urhobo cuz they don't want to be urhobo. So if ukwuanis n ikwerres don't want to be Igbo leave them, they is right to tribe

Ukwuani that has ohaneze


The same way ijebu i l ow said they hate the name Yoruba some egin ha e even told people here i. Lagos that they aren't Yoruba

urhobo n isoko do same meeting in Lagos probably as a sense of brotherliness(one Delta) u can't see dat in Warri, rememba I'm from delta o

amaechi SAID! he is more Igbo, he is just one man, meanwhile historians ve discovered dat ikwere n Igbo ve different roots, maybe closeness is what influenced ikwere to luk lyk Igbo, jus as ijaws in bonny n opobo nw speak an Igbo like language, urhobos in aragba n orogun, can speak Igbo, urhobos in bayelsa can speak ijaw, ijaws in kiagbodo can speak urhobo, ijaws in ondo speak a Yoruba like language, urhobos in ikpoba speak Edo and hundred other examples

VERY WRONG!
1.)Itsekiris are not yoruboid o, they only speak a yoruboid like language, they trace their history to Bini from prince Ginuwa, and ve been influenced by ijaw n urhobo, even their dressing, food, lifestyle is far from yoruba or is it only language that indicates a tribe

2.)Ikwerres speak an igboid language, but their dressing, food n dance is similar to the ijaws, even the name rumuighorhoya suggests Bini origin, (ighorhoya is an edo word and I'm 100% sure of that), the story of ikwerres may be same story of bonny

3.)Hope you know the term delta Igbo refers to 3 different groups, ikas, ukwuanis/ndokwas n aniochas/enuanis, I'm aware of the different dialects of Igbo (ngwo, mbaise, mbano, ndoki,e.t.c) and I agree that enuani is one of them. As for ukwuanis, beside language tell me anoda similarity they ve with Igbo, they were among the tribes that would ve been old delta state with capital at warri, while enuani were campaigning for anioma state. as for ikas, yes they answer emeka, kosarachi, onuoha, ifeanyi okowa but they also answer names like ozegbe, abah, these are edo names, they called God Chukwu(Igbo) n also call him Osakwe(Edo), the way you partially understand an ika man is same way an esan man partly understands them.
So Language Cannot be used as the only avenue to indicate a tribe(Taraba people speak Hausa language but are Jukun people)

Apart from market days they have the same culture ...like wine carrying and omugwo

Now apart from language ,they dress like Igbo ...with George wrapper


Now apart from language ...they worship the same deity ..Ani, chukwu and they celebrate kolanut

Language is a major pointer of cultural sameness...stop fooling around....but just like Igbo republicanism now The Ikwerre exist in well-delineated clans, with each clan having its own Paramount King, therefore, the Ikwerre do not have an overall paramount ruler or king, but designated kings, rulers or leaders mostly approved by its constituents.

To make this argument simpler,the classification has to be broader to YORUBOID,IGBOID as highlighted by the bolded.

This is so coz the languages spoken are mild or high modification of the parent language and the truth can only be inferred from their names.

1.)Itsekiris are not yoruboid o, they only speak a yoruboid like language, they trace their history to Bini from prince Ginuwa, and ve been influenced by ijaw n urhobo, even their dressing, food, lifestyle is far from yoruba or is it only language that indicates a tribe

2.)Ikwerres speak an igboid language, but their dressing, food n dance is similar to the ijaws, even the name rumuighorhoya suggests Bini origin, (ighorhoya is an edo word and I'm 100% sure of that), the story of ikwerres may be same story of bonny

3.)Hope you know the term delta Igbo refers to 3 different groups, ikas, ukwuanis/ndokwas n aniochas/enuanis, I'm aware of the different dialects of Igbo (ngwo, mbaise, mbano, ndoki,e.t.c) and I agree that enuani is one of them. As for ukwuanis, beside language tell me anoda similarity they ve with Igbo, they were among the tribes that would ve been old delta state with capital at warri, while enuani were campaigning for anioma state. as for ikas, yes they answer emeka, kosarachi, onuoha, ifeanyi okowa but they also answer names like ozegbe, abah, these are edo names, they called God Chukwu(Igbo) n also call him Osakwe(Edo), the way you partially understand an ika man is same way an esan man partly understands them.
So Language Cannot be used as the only avenue to indicate a tribe(Taraba people speak Hausa language but are Jukun people)
As you see I'm nt just writing from what dem said somewhere, I'm very much on ground in Delta and Rivers states and know quite well what goes on there

ikwerre isn't like Bonny in anyway, trade with ibos & slave trade is what brought ibo language to Ibani territory, that being said the monarchy, tradition, naming, towns and language of the Ibani people still remains the Ibani language which is an Ijaw dialect, Ikwerre didn't engage in slave trade or answer Bini names or have Bini town names or culture, I believe they just want to have a distinct identity from the Igbos that's why the identify as Ikwerre not Bini or Igbo,even if they claim to have migrated from Bini kingdom it doesn't make them Bini because we all know bini kingdom was a meeting point of many tribes. Argue wisely next time
