A list of Igbo Speaking communities in Igalaland, Kogi State.
The Igala are an ethnic group predominant in the present day Kogi State. They have physical boundaries and cultural afflictions with the Igbo, Idoma, Okun and Edo.
While a whole lot is known about some Igbo-speaking communities such as the Anioma in Delta State, Ndoki, Ikwerre and Etche in Riverstate, the Umuezekaoha people of Benue State etc. outside the five Southeastern states, very little is known as the Igbo-speaking people in Igala land.
As a result of the the heavy settlement of Igbo migrant farmers (19th and 20th centuries) in Igala land, one could find a handful of communities which are Igbo-speaking communities going by their names. Also, If you're acquainted with Igala language, you will find out that there's no 'Z' in their alphabet which is present in Igbo language. This equally justifies that the communities in question belong to the Igbo people.
The following are the Igbo-speaking communities in Igala land.
The EkeAvurugo in Ibaji LGA. They speak Igbo as their first language and Igala as their second language.
2. Ugwuebonyi, Ebokwe, Ozara, Amaeke, Amankpo, Amauwani camp, Amaokwu, Amadiefioha, Amaufulu, etc. all in Igalamela/Odolu lga of Kogi State
3. Nwajala, Umuoye, Ubulie-Umueze in Ibaji lga of Kogi state.
4. The Odolu community in Igalamela/Odolu LGA is said to speak Igala as first language and the Nsukka Igbo dialect as second language.
5. Akpanya in Igalamela/Odolu LGA. They all speak Igbo. Everyone born and bred in the town speak Igbo.
6. Onicha-Igo is a town in Ofu LGA of Kogi state

Nnemuka:
Ibaji people shouldn't have been in Kogi state.
That town is made up of purely igbo people with Igbo lifestyle.

I like them

Danzakidakura:
I come to believe that igbos are peace loving people. They are only hated for rejection Islam.so islamist terrorists from north and SW keep poisoning other Nigerians mind about this great tribe.but we from southern kaduna are wiser now.

6. Onicha-Igo is a town in Ofu LGA of Kogi state

Nowenuse:


Onicha Igo is not Igbo speaking... They just have that name, perhaps cos their ancestors came from Igbo land.

The truth is that Igalas have been neighbors to Igbos for thousands of years and they have been serious intermixing. Many Igbo communities have Igala origins and vice versa.

Most of these communities you are listing have mixed heritage, hence they are billingual. It is left for them to decide if they want to be identified as Igbos or Igalas.
This is the same situation with the Ebu of Delta state and the Nzam/Olumbanasa of Anambra state.

obowo69:


Do you know that some tribes in the middlebelt fought against Biafra because they were worried of staying in Nigeria without Igbos in it.

BCC interviewed one of the middlebelt soldiers and he raised this concern.

Akponmfet:
Here we go again.
Another round of Igbo noise.

Ikinternational:


Good thing you couldn't dispute it with facts.
Otherwise you would've tried

Sorry for your igbo headache

Frankdoz8:
don't mind the afonja, they will always find a way to portray hatred to Igbo's.

gloriaunobi:


The Onicha-Igo is not true, they speak Igala and Idoma

Frankdoz8:
This not true, onicha-igo speaks Igbo. They once trace their origin to onitsha-otu in anambra.
