Igala have a distinct language but some speak Igbo, it is only Igalas that is living near the Igbos territories that is bearing Igbo names and other cultures.

Eastern Nigeria have many diverse languages, you cant say Isoko, Itkekiri, Urobo,Ibibio,Efik,Ijaw, Okirika are all offshoot of Igbos. No, they are languages on their own. The north also have the highest number of diverse languages distinct on their own.

DeKen:

Ezenwa Josh, which part of Akwa Ibom bears such name? Or is that a pseudo name?

I'm from Akwa Ibom. I don't hate the Igbos. But if there will be a disintegration of Nigeria, I won't want to be part of Biafra. Meanwhile I don't understand the reason some Igbos want to have other tribes with them in Biafra. I think they would get better support from other south south states/tribes if they don't try to rope others in to their envisioned Biafra. If we disintegrate, I'd rather see us as part of another nation, not Biafra.

So because there is a small fraction of Igbo (If truly there is) in Akwa Ibom (b/c Igbo can't be in Ibibio), then the whole of Akwa Ibom should be cooped into Biafra?
Are you from one of those minority Igbo tribes you claim to be in Akwa Ibom? Cos I've never heard of an Akwa Ibom person that wants to be part of Biafra. Instead I know of many who actually dislike Igbos (I'm not one anyway). I actually share some ideologies with some Igbos pertaining to the Nigerian nation but it will be a nightmare to wake up to be part of Biafra.

Ibibio call plate "Usan", not "Usany". Chair is called "Ifim" or "Mkpo Itie", not "Okpokoro" which actually means "Table" in Ibibio. This would confirm that you are not from Akwa Ibom, or at least not Ibibio.

While I'm aware of Akwa Ibom names like Inyang (not Iyang), Okon, Eno (not Eni), and Ukpabi sounds familiar. I've never heard of names like Ebin and Eni. There could actually be some borrowing of words and names since we are neighbours for years. I don't see how a few similar sounding words or similarly named items translates to Ibibios being Igbos.

"Perhaps the Igbos are the ones that are Ibibios". However within Akwa Ibom, there are some minority tribes with distinct languages that an Ibibibo man does not understand unless he learns and the other tribes do not understand Ibibio unless they learn it. They are proud of their identity, just like the Ibibios are proud of their identities. No one wants to change their identity for any reason and I won't want to loose my identity to be tagged Igbo. I actually feel insulted by that and I think this tendency will only earn you guys hatred. Why not leave it.

There's a reason history was removed from Nigeria education system

And the reason actually worked

Many has started asking questions and identifying with their cousins

I won't take anything away from me if a part of Akwa Ibom choose to identify as igbos or not

JUST THAT THE TRUTH MUST BE SPOKEN

Some who spoke ill of ipob and Nnamdi kanu started seeing his reasons after what happened in BENUE

Well your writeup has made me search online about the Aro-Ibibio people. The only thing I can find is how the Aro came to unsettle the Ibibios who were the original settlers. Also so a bit of intermarriage but those settlements are now mostly in Abia State. Now perhaps there are some Aro people in Akwa Ibom state, if they wish to join Biafra, that is fine. If they do exist, I doubt they will be up to 1%. The majority of Akwa Ibom will not like to be part of Biafra. Most old people in Akwa Ibom have only nasty experiences to share with regards to Igbo dominance during the Eastern region era.

Good job in your studious endeavor to trace Igbo land. I suggest you keep it up and reiterate the facts whenever some goons are in doubt. In fact, large section of Ika L.G.A in Akwa Ibom is native to Igbo. The same could be said about Obubara L.G.A. in Cross River State. Under 23 above, I guess you meant Ndoki and Eleme. Elele is Ikwweere. However, some goons think that Eleme is Ogoni. Eleme is not Ogoni.

Delta state was never part of your East.
Delta state was part of Bendel.
Don't be lazy, do research before you writing.

Delta is an eastern state located in the west.

if you understand what I mean.

Maybe you are trying to communicate something important but I don't get you, I'm sorry. Is Delta state currently an eastern state? Was Delta state at any point in history an eastern state? Or are you calling it an eastern state because some areas speak languages similar to the eastern states? Your above comment looks like beer pallor gist.

Delta state was part of the Benin Kingdom.
These guys who keep drawing biafra or oduduwa maps lack accurate information.
That is why their projects always fail.
You guys should rather ask people if they want to join your biafra or oduduwa rather than acting as if they were a conquered people which they are not.
The so called "major tribes" should stop believing that they can take over from the british and colonize the rest.
Else we are headed to the worse kind of civil war.

I said yoruba or so but it's not Igbo language

Akamu is a borrowed language

With all due respect, you are talking nonsense. Igbos have been drinking Akamu for centuries. Akamu is indigenous Igbo name just like Okra was derived from Igbo.

can you compare Delta and Edo state?

Edo is more Western than Delta State, in fact you'll only understand this if you've been to Delta State.

Thanks blood for that writeup.... the fools has failed in their divide and rule tactics, we are wiser now... Akwa Ibom means "Part of My Ibo" or Igbo, Ibibo is part of Igbo language..... we are stronger together....... Forget Ijaws, Igbo and Ibibos are more related than the Ijaws and Igbo's.....

You can't be afonja and never will you. That has gone. Get over it.

Good job in your studious endeavor to trace Igbo land. I suggest you keep it up and reiterate the facts whenever some goons are in doubt. In fact, large section of Ika L.G.A in Akwa Ibom is native to Igbo. The same could be said about Obubara L.G.A. in Cross River State. Under 23 above, I guess you meant Ndoki and Eleme. Elele is Ikwweere. However, some goons think that Eleme is Ogoni. Eleme is not Ogoni.

They don't know
