garfield1: You may see it as harsh but that's just the blunt truth.. Enough of massaging some Igbo/Yoruba people's ego about this. As long as Kwara state is still recognized as NC region in Nigeria law, those Yorubas living there are merely a resident in Kwara state... If they are proud of their Yorubaness, let them relocate to any of the SW states. The land was lost, end of discussion. When Gowon, the evil genius dissolved the old Western and Eastern region, He deliberately caught out where the concentration of Igbos are in the new SS from the border line with SE states. If you look at it in extensions. Those are lost lands. End of discussion Nobody is denying them of owing the lands , nobody is denying there are no indigenous Yorubas in Kwara, Indigenous Igbos in SS but the reality is, the place they now belong is no longer their region, it's someone's else. |

Patrioticbreed9:Most people don't know up to 30% of Rivers state yet they rush in just to comment and spite Igbos. Unfortunately, some SE Igbos don't know either and they make comments that can easily be misconstrued for something else. Since you're from Emuoha LGA, can you tell us which spelling is the correct one for your area. Emohua or Emuoha then tell us its meaning. |

helinues: I understand you now.igbo heartland is south east,any igbo outside there indigenous or not is in an exercise of self deception.same applies to the yorubas |

Ahoada West and Ahoada East LGAs are occupied by at least two different people. The whole of Ahoada East is made up of only Ekpeyes (an Igboid group) with its headquarters being at Ahoada town while Ahoada West consists still of Ekpeyes and some Edoid and Ijoid groups whose headquaters is Akinima. A good number of Ekpeyes are Igbophilic. 2 Likes |

Patrioticbreed9:Ahoada west is dominated by Engenni Ijaws whom have strong ancestral links with the Edos. So how can one refer to an Engenni person as Igbo? The person wan die? Don't mind the Igbos. |

Patrioticbreed9:As a Rivers man, which Igboid parts of Rivers identify fully with their Igbo roots? of course with the exception of the Ikwerres... |
Re: "There Are No Igbos In The South South" by dared0637: 11:58am On May 24, 2021 |
garfield1:Speak for your yoruba people, we Igbos by culture don't leave our brothers behind, of course we won't force any group that don't want to identify themselves as Igbos, but we definitely won't abandon all our Igbo kindred in the South South because a vocal few deny their roots...that's insanity, all we have to do is just separate the chaff from the wheat and move on. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Patrioticbreed9:Owere(Owerri) means expanse land behind a settlement in my dialect. Óká(Awka) has a meaning I don't know but Awka indigenes can tell you. Ehugbo(Afikpo) has a meaning the locals can tell you. I'm not from there. Onicha(Onitsha) is an old Igbo word I'm still digging dip to get its meaning. Aba nke leke (Abakiliki) means something the locals can tell you. Nsuka(Nsukka) has a meaning the locals can tell you just like Nsude and Nsugbe nearby has a meaning too. Aba has a meaning too which the locals can tell you. Igbo language is very vast which is why I asked you as a local of that LGA. I do understand spelling might change due to anglicization but the locals can always state the correct spelling hence I asked you. |

dared0637:truth to be said! None. but we veiw the etche's as igbo though! But families matters too. In our family my dad usualy forces us to read igbo text books and other igbo related books too. in the ikwerre tribe our people are also seen as igbo's due to our un seriose dialect 3 Likes |

helinues: Good mathematics...if the resident Igbos in Delta state and Rivers state are indigenes then it also means the resident Igbos in Lagos state are also indigenes of Lagos state and so therefore,they can be governor of Lagos state and also can be kabiyesi of no man's land too,thank you very much Lzaa Imhotep 4 Likes 1 Share |

Patrioticbreed9:Well, it's rare to see an Emohua fela accept to be Igbo. The Ikwerres I know that don't have a problem with the Igbo tag, are mostly from Ikwerre LGA most expecially Isiokpo and may be some part of Akpor. My elder bro is married to an Emohuo woman. |

Patrioticbreed9:I doubt you're truly a Rivers man if you don't know the Oyigbo people fully identify themselves as Igbos, I intentionally baited you with that question and you fell for it. |
