Asagba of Asaba is not a recognized king in Delta. A monarch from a tiny Anioma village commands more respect than the Asagba. Please stop saying what you don't know. If you're from the east, you can never understand Deltans. We might have issues with the Urhobos because of politics, but we understand each other more than Anioma and East. They can call us Igbos for political reasons. It's a form of derogatory word for them and they enjoy doing it. It's all because of politics but deep down their hearts, they know the difference between Anioma and igbos.

realkingqueen:
I'm sure you're not new to people residing in different states or countries that are not their states or countries.. so why is it that an Igbo person residing in Lagos is an issue?? and when you say disrespect,how do we disrespect them?? cos the typical Igbo man I know wakes up in the morning,goes to his business place and comes back,that's all they do,so what is the problem??are they the first to accommodate people,what's all the fuse about,matter of fact Yoruba people are also in Igbo lands and no one is asking them to go back to their states every now and then,my dads house in the village is presently occupied by a Yoruba man and his family,he relocated to our place since 2013 when he got a job offer and he wasn't financially prepared and he asked my dad for help and my dad gave him the keys to a part of our house in the village and he has been staying there without paying a dime but all the Igbo's here are paying rent..and we thrive in their land cos we are hardworking people,we thrive anywhere we find ourselves not just here and I think that's the reason why we have so much people hating on us and least I forget we don't detest yorubas,we put our strenght into hard work,we don't have the strength to hate on yorubas cos you know it takes so much strength to hate on someone.

Guy let me tell you something you don't know. If you know me from onset, I was a lover of igbo. I spent 3 years in anambra state. I learnt how to eat their food and prevailed upon my sad to let his eldest daughter marry an igbo man. But alas my view of the average igbo man changed when I got back to Benin. At first, I fraternise with them calling them my in laws, I realised it was the biggest mistake I made. Because the binis are easy going, hospitable and few, the average igbo man wants to Lord it over us. They acquire lands in Benin without discrimination. Only in Benin you find an igbo man named after Street cos he is the first resident in said street. The day I heard igbo saying Benin us no man's land coupled with my igbo's fiancee dumping me after spending so much on her on ground that her family won't accept me cos am not igbo put paid to my relationship with them
Today I still regret my sister marriage to an igbo man. I wish Biafra will happen over night so all igbo vacate Benin land. Yes we few, but we have cast and arable lands. We are proud of our cultural heritage. Festac masks will tell you that...we hospital, but we won't condolences igbos' taking over our lands. Our hospitalities in the eyes of many igbos settlers in Benin is now foolishness. I don't care whatever you call me...I just can't help detesting the igbos though they industrious and many may be good...but they all a colonising force.

Shym3xx:


Lol. You sound like an illiterate. And it seems you have a fundamental problem with English language. Especially reading and comprehension.

Everything I posted on this thread has been pretty much clear and straightforward. Igbos aren't indigenous to Delta. They got there as slaves, just as they were slaves everywhere in Rivers, all the way to a place called Bonny and where Jaja of Opobo ruled.

Those tribal settlement weren't that big back then and it was easy for the Igbo slaves to dominate them in terms of population. And everything is well documented. The population of the Itsekiris back then was about 10,000-20,000. The Urhobos weren't even more than 100,000. Now imagine what the huge Igbo population of 4million would do to all the other small settlements where they worked as slaves. It's well documented that Igbo slaves outnumber the number of indigenous folks where the worked in that axis.

Anyway, why do people who got to a location as slaves want to force their identity on those they met there? To know Igbos aren't indigenous to Delta - you just have to check the history of Onitsha. Onitsha folks just started embracing Igbo identity less than 50 years ago loool. Stop reaching loool.

Ndukwe007:

Guy let's stop deceiving ourselves, we are the one separating ourselves. can you for example from ebonyi ,go to Anambra to marry? say the truth.

attackgat:
It is time to do away with this word "Delta Igbo". It is as insulting as calling me 'Anambra Igbo'. All this divide and rule is as a result of being in the British contraption called Nigeria. When we get our independence, everything from Asaba to Igbanke in Edo will be incuded in the "Greater Igbo confederation" and the words 'Anioma' and 'Delta-Igbo' will die a natural death. Igbo is Igbo.

Igboid:


Lol! This is comedy, only that it's dry.

xtervaganza:
Same old problem with ibos.



You guys should for once look inward rather than playing the blame game all your life.



How's it Yoruba's fault that you hate each other? Did Yoruba create the osu caste system? A system so bad you kill your fellow ibos on stoopid beliefs




Is it Yoruba who asked you to hate people from ebonyi? Ibos insulting fellow ibos from ebonyi calling them unprintable names




You guys should receive sense and grow up

Ikechukwu48:


No need.

Your existence is already an insult

You guys seriously need to stop acknowledging that shymexx clown. His stupidity on NL is well known and legendary. There are seriously some people you people need to learn to ignore especially when they display ignorance of a matter.

Wasting your energy on a dry wall is something I can never get.

you know nothing about my self esteem..do you think someone like me would ever I mean ever have self esteem issues??matter of fact if you know me,you would think I'm too proud..dude bye,i have wasted so much of my precious time already,time i would have invested into something productive.

Godemcee:
osu av started calling Yoruba as usual,who cares bout osu nd what they think.osu are 100th class citizens so they are irrelevant.

they are sacred of fulani so they would rather blame Yoruba for there misfortune

Udmaster:
the same way an Nnewi, Ohafia, Onitsha, Ezzi etc man can't undertand Central Igbo well because they have their various dialects just like Agbor.
Central Igbo is owned by nobody but formulated by Igbo scholars to implement A linguistic understand between various Igbo dialects Speakers.

you are too pretty to be talking with these Afonjas. Some of them are busy with their verslin as you are chanting with them. Please ignore them

Shym3xx:


Oh, stop grasping at straws - Igbos were slaves all over present day Delta, Bayelsa, and Rivers states.

And if Small Bonny Kingdom could have that many Igbo slaves to the extent that they outnumbered Bonny folks. What makes you think Bini didn't have twice the thenumber as slaves?

Ikechukwu48:


Even within the ika community, there are several ika groups that are proudly igbo such as igbodo, Owa, etc. I bet you you aren't aware the current king working alongside Asagba to unite the entire igbo community is the current obi of Owa. Guess what? Owa kingdom is an ika community. I bet you didn't know that yet you judge all based on agbor community. Smfh.

And yes I'm aniocha. I know anioma very well and anyone from anioma land will tell you within our group the deniers are a minority, they are just very loud and attention seekers.

The sad about the entire scenario is the denier you found are caused by SE. Why? Because you lots listen to Yoruba and Hausa/fulani and then insult and belittle your own ppl because you believe "anioma hates Igbo" simply because of what the two groups that hates you tell una. Continue though!

marshborn:

Which one is igbo speaking, non - igbos? What makes me an igbo man again minus the igbo language which I speak?
