hammer6F:Ndoni is in Rivers state. Peter Odili the former Rivers governor is an Ndoni man. The Ndonis are more related to Aboh than they r to Asaba yet they r not Anioma. The whole Anioma thing is a political contraption. The Asaba man would see an Onitsha man as more of a brother than an Aboh man. 2 Likes 1 Share |

ABOH ON THE OTHER HAND SHARE LAND MASS WITH UKWU ANI AND CO. THEY ARE ANIOMA PEOPLE. NDONI AND ABOH MAY HAVE REASON TO COME TOGETHER IN THE FUTURE, MAYBE UNDER CITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR ALA IGBO.

Obi1kenobi:I love your argument and agree with most of what u have written. However, you seem to be reasoning along with me. Yes, the Igbo's are not a homogenous people, but political events, particularly of the last 100 years have united them and is greatly closing the gaps and no other event has defined the Igbo's more than the civil war. 100years ago, the term Igbo mostly referred to the spoken language and not to an ethnic group per say. The people of the various clans that make up what today is called Igbo land most likely did not refer to themselves as Igbo, some explicitly rejected being tagged as Igbo. However, political events following Nigeria's colonization changed the dynamics. Most of these people united as an umbrella Igbo ethnic group. The whole politics culminated in the civil war which helped in strengthening the Igbo union even more. The tragedy of war as suffered by the Igbo's came to be a common history of the various Igbo sub groups. Those igboid groups that were not directly involved in the war don't share this history and may not be Igbo enough. This is the reason y d Asaba man, a victim of the civil war will identify proudly as Igbo but an Agbor man would not 3 Likes 1 Share |

clefstone:You know, i have nothing against anyone choosing to call themselves whatever they choose. But what i hate is falsehood. So, Asaba is Igbo because they were directly involved in the war? So, why is Akwa-Ibom and other minorities not Igbo since they suffered the same fate. And btw, how exactly was Asaba involved in the war, if you care to explain? I mean how was Asaba involved that Agbor or other Igboid groups not involved? 1 Like 1 Share |

Afam4eva: ONE MAJOR FEATURE THAT I HAVE NOTICED ABOUT THIS ANIOMA PEOPLE FROM TALKING TO DEM IS THE RECURRENT THEME OF RIVER CROSSING. THEY ALL, WHETHER ABOH OR ANIOCHA SEEM TO BE POINTING TO RIVER CROSSING. YES PEOPLE FROM ABOH MIGHT HAVE CROSSED TO NDONI AND PEOPLE FROM NDONI MIGHT HAVE CROSSED BACK. LIKE WISE ANIOCHA PEOPLE CROSS TO ONITSHA AND ONITSHA PEOPLE CROSS TO ANIOCHA. WAT I DONT GET IS THE CONFUSION OF TRYING TO WRITE THEIR ORIGIN BASED ON WHICH PART DID THE FIRST CROSSING. IF IT WAS NDONI, IT MEANS THEY ARE IGBO BUT IF IT WAS ABOH, IT MEANS THEY ARE FROM BENIN. VICE VERSA IN THE CASE OF ANIOCHA AND ONITSHA. THE TRUTH IS THEY ARE IGBO REGARDLESS OF THE POSITION FROM WHERE THE FIRST CROSSING HAPPENED. IF WE GO NORTH OF EDO, WE HAVE THE EBIRA WHOSE LANGUAGE ALMOST SOUND IGBO. THE IGBOS OCCUPY THE NORTH OF DELTA, INDICATING THAT THEY WERE THE FIRST ARRIVALS IN DELTA STATE. THE LAST IJAWS WHO OCCUPY THE SOUTHERN COASTLINE. THE BENIN/URHOBO ARE ALSO SOUTHWARD, SOME WHERE IN THE MIDDLE THUS, THEY ALSO ARRIVED MUCH LATER THAN THE ANIOMA WHOM ARE SETTLED NORTHWARD. IF U LOOK AT ITSEKIRI AND URHOBO LAND, THEY POINT WESTWARD. ANIOMA LAND IS POINTING NORTHWARD AND HUGGING THE EAST. THIS ADDS UP TO ALL HISTORICAL AUTHORITY THAT STIPULATES IGBO MIGRATION TO THEIR PRESENT LOCATION FROM THE NORTH. IF THEY WERE FROM BENIN, THEN THEIR LAND WOULD BE LIKE ITSEKIRI AND URHOBO, POINTING WESTWARD. THE NORTH IS THE ISI ALA OR UKWUANI,(HEAD) WHILST THE SOUTH IS THE ODU ANI (TAIL END) HENCE THE WHOLE BENIN CLAIM IS BASELESS, WITH NO SUPPORTING EVIDENCE. THEY ARE IGBO PEOPLE NEVER BINI. THE EXISTED BEFORE THE BENIN AND MUCH OLDER THAN THE BENIN. THE BINI, HOWEVER RAIDED THEIR VILLAGES AND CAPTURED ALOT OF SLAVES/ LAND FROM THEM.

Chiwude: You have been sold infatuations and suffer from the same hoax pill Edos swallowed that got them confused and remain in enslavement of the Binis till today. You have to listen to a people tell and declare their own story and origin. You dont just pluck a origin for a people out of your delusion. So go online and visit websites on each of these places you listed, read their own story of origin. Wherever it says, thats where they are from. Do same for the people of Anioma. Wherever they say they are from, accept it. Simple! I warned several times not to derail this thread but you guys dont listen. If you want to derail this thread i will help you accomplish that....and very fast too. 1 Like 1 Share |

Afam4eva:Aboh remained neutral during the war. Yes, some Abohs living in PH and d East fought for Biafra but some others fought for the Federal troops. Today, we don't have the Biafra sentiments like the Igbo's do, we really don't care. The Igbo's keep telling their children how the Yoruba's are betrayers, how the middle belters were used by the Hausa-Fulanis etc, all because of that war. It is a sentiment shared by majority of Igbo's and it defines your people now. It affects their way of life and politics, it's become an Igbo thing. These are sentiments we do not share. While I will never judge the Igbo's for having these sentiments, the issues do not bother my people. Read about the Asaba massacre 1 Like 1 Share |

hammer6F:you see where u guys contradict yourselves. With one breath you say that the Ndonis r not Anioma because they r to the East of the Niger and with the next breath that we r falsely claiming not to be Igbos because we r located west of the Niger. By d way, y do u keep associating the Ndonis to Imo? Do u know that the Ndoni dialect is basically same as Aboh's even closer than Ukwuani's dialect is to Aboh. This weekend in Church an Ndoni woman discovered that I am from Aboh and she was so happy and called me her brother. I can almost swear that she won't accord such regard to anyone from Imo. My grandmother is an Ndoni woman so I know what I'm saying 1 Like |

With my interaction with you guys i don't really found that Igbo denial display in you guys compared to the so-called anioma people.
