ChinenyeN: Well then it only proves the diversity in Ngwa too.maybe they dont speak ur own. |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by Onlytruth(m): 6:46pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
EzeUche22: Thank you again. Chinenye is funny. I can even understand Imo and Abia because I grew up in Onitsha where every Igbo lives. So I can understand all Igbo dialects. |

EzeUche22:That's fine, if that's how your people feel about it, but that only concerns YOUR people. You cannot speak for others. EzeUche22:I don't believe I stated (or implied) that other groups couldn't. . . if I did, please show me. |

hhmm interesting stuff. I can see Igbo people are very diverse. My own people just got 5 clans and thats it. lol Chyz, how are u able to upload music like that on NL? I can't do that. |

EzeUche22:how come the map indicates that warri is not in itshekiri land, this is another fake product by igbos |

ChinenyeN: How's this [flash=200,200] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLpqquEiIR0[/flash] This definitely is Ngwa (Igboland) |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by ChinenyeN(m): 6:50pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
Much Better. |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by Onlytruth(m): 6:53pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
ChinenyeN: But I can understand this one as well. How do you explain that? |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by ezeuche10: 6:56pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
@seanet02, every body knows that warri is itshekiri, so stop making noise. |

Dawgpound: Insert the link in the reply then take out the "watch?" then take out the "=" and replace the '=" with a "/" then highlight the link and click insert flash. You should be good to go from there. 1 Like |

Onlytruth, I don't believe I stated anywhere that no one could understand it. . . Instead was only letting Chyz know that what was posted previously was not authentic. |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by Dawgpound: 7:10pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
Cool bro!!!! Meka!!! Bari Bless You!! |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by Onlytruth(m): 7:11pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
ChinenyeN: And of course you are the ONLY authority on Ngwa dialects. Bros Chinenye! lmao! |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by komando: 7:14pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
@ Ezeuche Leave that useless aigbofa who thinks he can bully ndigbo with insults. @senet you are an empty head, you know that? Digging out Itshekiri constitution in an Igbo post. |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by EzeUche22(m): 7:17pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
ezeuche10: Who are you? Do not take my identity. |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by EzeUche22(m): 7:18pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
I probably speak Ngwa better than that yankee raised ChinenyeN with his Americana accent. |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by komando: 7:20pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
You two knuckle heads had better stop your various collective insults against Ndigbo or things could get nasty in here. |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by ChinenyeN(m): 7:22pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
I mean all this in complete seriousness. Onlytruth, it is rather funny and stupid for you to try and be sarcastic like that. If you want to tell me that you doubt my familiarity with Ngwa, then simply be straightforward and state as such. Unless, of course, trying to be funny helps you convey your point. |

Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by ChinenyeN(m): 7:27pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
EzeUche, now that statement of yours is genuinely funny (I mean this). At least to me it is. Hehh. . my yankee/americana accent. . |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by ikenwan: 7:29pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
I haven't heard enough of what I like to call "deep Igbo" (Igbo spoken by very old people without any English words) to understand all the words in these songs. I think if they were speaking rather than singing, it would be easier to figure it out of course LOL. The disadvantages of a living language that exists as a dialect continuum. :/ Also, @EzeUche22 @THE_AMAKA @ChinenyeN @OnlyTruth: there's no reason to fight amongst yourselves and no reason to respond to barking dogs.

ChinenyeN: I don't know how small Ngwaland is. If it is anything as big as my town Nnewi, then it is simplistic to claim one "authentic dialect". I know for instance that our "intra-Nnewi" dialects mimic those of surrounding towns. I dare not tell a guy from a different border village of Nnewi that his dialect is not the authentic one. Same thing applies to Igbo nation. |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by EzeUche22(m): 7:32pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
ikenwan: Deep Igbo is very hard to find in Alaigbo unless you go into the villages where our elders are. My grandmother would always speak Igbo and would not even speak English. I don't even think she spoke English. And she would tell us to only speak Igbo to her. |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by ChinenyeN(m): 7:35pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
No one is fighting, Ikenwan. |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by paddylo1(m): 7:36pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
The Igbo experience in fishery does not extend beyond importing okporoko from the Norwegians. Ezeuche may be right, Alaigbo isnt landlocked. . . . . its land padlocked!. . .Ibime. .God punish u. . .na my ppl u dey yab like that ehn. . .lol. . that was funny though on the real though. .whether we are landlocked or not doesnt matter. .what matters is that igbos are rich enough to buy whatever land we want. .wherever we want in Nigeria. . . |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by EzeUche22(m): 7:36pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
ChinenyeN, You seem to be Igbos weakest link on NL. You always go against the majority of the Igbos on NL concerning a united Igboland. You try to divide us and act like your small clan is its own group. And other groups use your words to attack us. |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by ezeagu(m): 7:40pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
Onlytruth: Well, that's insulting, Ngwa could probably fit 20 Nnewi's into it with space left. The land size is quite big, big enough to be a state. Map is here: http://books.google.com/books?id=2ITAF9_hlIQC&pg=PA18 |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by ChinenyeN(m): 7:40pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
Onlytruth, I also never stated that there was one authentic Ngwa. Stop insinuating. |
Re: The True Extent Of Alaigbo (Igboland) by abadaba(m): 7:40pm On Aug 20, 2010 |
@Aigbofa and Seanet: Why not go and cover your faces with bucket of shitt. Your attempts to impress and sound smart has not helped your ignorance but has made you to land in the fat sack of monkey shitt. Go and screw your grandma's because Ndi Igbo are found in 7 states. Despite some proportions in Benue, Edo and Akwa Ibom. Fuckheads. |
