Yes, you're right, apart from that; Ebonyi people are just naturally disliked by other igbos, It's something I've seen.
Do Igbos love anyone?Majority of them are always at strife with their friends, host, neighboughs and people they don't know. Its no coincidence that they were at center of Nigeria only civil war.. Yet they are still keen to fight another one.

does that defend the hatred? sincerely ebonyi state is almost the biggest and best in agriculture.

I have listen severally to igbo songs.. Which Whenever they to talk about igbo people, they will only mention ANAMBRA, IMO and ENUGU... Am



The worst part is the Gospel singers are also doing the same.... You will be listening to igbo gospel music , they will be praying to God ""Gozierem ndi onitsha, Gozierem ndi IMO, ENUGU na ANAMBRA state nine" "

WHY are they disregarding us ===EBONYI and ABIA




HAVENT WE CONTRIBUTED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF IGBO RACE

Answer is simple. These are new States, not so much in people's consciousness especially the elders that will be called to lead traditional prayers n break kolanut.

This is due to creation of States, an exercise I feel is causing more division and waste of money on bureaucracy n civil servants/recurrent expenditure.

They are not disliked, they're just seen as non-igbos because of their dialect.

Their dialect has little or no resemblance to the general igbo dialect. If for instance an Enugu, Anambra Imo or Abia man speaks his dialect, you can still grab a thing or two from what he's saying. But if an Ebonyi man speaks his, you won't even understand a single sentence of what he's saying. And worst is most of them in the villages don't even understand the general igbo. So if you find yourself there, you'll really have a hard time communicating even though you're an igbo. (I'm talking from experience)

That's why most igbos see them as non igbos.
Absolutely, That's another major factor. You're definitely right.

l think is because their governors are deadwoods.Ebonyi is governed by 81 years old Elechi and Abia by the worst governor known to man theif orji.The lazy governors has made their state backward.

Abia though dragged back is still popular thanks to Aba but as for Ebonyi sometimes i forget it is an igbo state.

The only reason why Martin Elechi name is in capital letters not small like theif orji is that he is old enough to be my grandfather and deserves that respect

Op, I've noticed that most I ibos from three states u mentioned feels superior to the ones from the other two, xpecially the ebonyian, they don't see them as fellow ibos.

I hate to point fingers but people from Imo and Enugu are not known to feel superior to other Igbo groups.

Lagos is the most develpoed state in the southwest nay Nigeria but that doesnt make the Yorubas hate themselves.

Kano is the most developed state in the North but that doesnt make the Hausas hate themselves

why then do the ibos hate and discriminate against each other just because of the dearth of infrastructural development in a certain?

Ebonyi isnt the only state in Nigeria with an underperforming Governor, so why the hate from their fellow ibo brothers
Stop peddling falsehood against the igbos to make us look bad. We don't hate one another in igboland! The way I see my brothers in Enugu is the same way I see and relate with those from Anambra, IMO, Ebony, Abia, Delta and Rivers. Igbos are one. Deal with it!

Ozoigbondu, What do you have to say about this?? grin grin
Though, I learnt the most less recognized Igbo state is ebonyi, because they are so local, In fact, if someone calls you "onye Abakiliki", It's a derogatory term and an insult.

LolLol cheesy
I remember asking someone, "ibu onye abakiliki?" the response was shocking, "taaaarrrr, bu kwalu onye abaagana"

I think Ebonyi is underrated because it was carved out of the old Enugu state.

That said..

The Area that consists of the Northern part of Imo state and the southern part of Anambra State is where you'll find the richest and the most successful men in Igboland.

Enugu is still relevant considering it was the Capital of Eastern region.

Abia state is a tricky one.. People easily relate and talk about aba but Abia seems to be heavy in the mouth. Like Aba has swallowed abia..

Everyone from Abia state is called Nwa Aba (Aba boy) by Igbos from other states.

In my opinion, THIS IS A MEANINGLESS TOPIC.

When South East is mentioned, ALL the states ARE recognized. Abia state has NEVER been in the background. It is very popular. Ebonyi on the other hand might be least mentioned because it is a very quiet state.

Not true. I recently saw the movie "Ada Abakiliki". I understand most of the conversations. You should check it out.
I was quite surprised as I expected to have to depend pn the subtitles.

For a second there I was thinking you are Ebonyi. Lo behold, you are not. Why are you yorubas crying more than Ebonyi ppl? There are more than enough ebonyi on this forum, some have even spoken on this thread and not one cried about the thread but look behold, una are crying more that the community in question.

Why are you and your brothers taking panadol for another person's headache?
Did the OP call una?
Did Ebonyi make una their spokesperson?
Did they ask una to cry for them?

Every single conversation b/w igbo groups, u people always butt una fat heads into it throwing your opinions around like anyone asked or cared about them. Wtf is wrong with you people? I honestly think God was asleep when he created you people. He didn't make una normal
