Historically there never was strong brotherhood between Igbos outside their clans before Nigeria was created 1 Like |

HopeAtHand:what you're saying in essence is that Igbos denounced Ikwerre people first? well i am just hearing that on nairaland. probably you should stop taking anti-ikwerre comments on nairaland serious. No real Igbo man will spite his fellow Igbo like that. 3 Likes |

Owerri Owerri was founded about the 14th century by our founding father Ekwem Oha. His mother's name was Arugo. He fled from Umuori Village, Uratta in Owerri North Local Government Area of Imo State when his life was threatened by his younger brother Ndum. The threat to his life arose from the dispute over the sharing of the Funeral Cow slaughtered when their father Oha the aristocrat and embodiment of royalty died. Umunoha According to this tradition , a sort of warlord called Nnoha Okechi with vague Aro ancestry, but certainly a peripatetic individual, migrated from Ozuzu in the present Etche Local Government Area of Rivers State, Nigeria and settled in the present Umunoha town , having decisively defeated the original Isu settlers This is the connection in origin of Ikwerre and the clans found in Southern Igbo like Owerri, Ihiagwa, Mgbirishi, Umuapu, Ngor, Ulakwo, Umuakani, Umuagwo, Nekede etc. They all obviously are descendants of an Eastern or Cross River migration not Benin. There is equally a recurrence of Amadi surname and their settlement pattern is more central and core than typical dispersed Igbo system of settlement. The attached picture is the traditional hat they always wore and it is closer to Cross River than Isu or Nri/Awka.

a time would come when those who are under the sub group of the igbos would beg to be recognized as igbos. by then it would be too late. even those who do not share language and cultural similarities would be regarded far above those who isolate them selves from their kit and kin. i wonder how a whole tribe of people the ikwerris who have learned people would allow them selves to be manipulated by the British and the divide and rule tactics of the outsiders. there are opportunities to make amend....... 4 Likes |

siokpe:With an independent Igbo nation, we'd ensure that the southern banks of the Benue(that's the whole igala, idoma and tiv lands) are flushed out of enemy/Islamic tendencies,even if it means pouring across the borders 1M soldiers like I mentioned in my previous posts to flush out Arewa influences... We'd do that! |

HopeAtHand: You are being too extreme. So many actually do but they are in minority. 2ndly Ikwerre has no access to sea. Maybe Okrika, Kalabari or Bonny is more important if the motive is what you think. From my personal point of view I mistook Ikwerre as Igbo earlier because my mother is from Ikwerre and I grew up learning the language and thought it was Igbo. Many Igbos cannot even comprehend Ikwerre language except those at the Southern tip who speak similar language. Igbos erroneously think Ikwerres are part of Igbo ethnic group because of the similarities visa vis the loose cultural and lingual affirnity inside Igboland itself. 1 Like |

If language and similar custom is all it takes then most of Northern Nigeria would be Hausa.Most of East Africa would be Swahili and so on. Indeed if Nigerians were white we would be "English" by now 4 Likes |

HopeAtHand: Every River is an access to sea including Niger, Sombreiro, Orasi, Imo and Cross River which all pass through Igboland. The issue is communities between the rivers and sea which is the creeks of Niger Delta mostly inhabited by Ijoid people not Ikwerre or Eleme. Ikwerre and Eleme ethnic groups are as landlocked as Igbos. 3 Likes 1 Share |
