ASK DEM TO BAN THIS MONIKER?

cheruv:

Why not institute the teaching of Igbo in Benin city...at least its not wrong if Bini people learn the language their ancestors spoke

gregyboy:


hahaha......who won learn am u or the igbos in benin

cheruv:

To further buttress the fact that they came from Bini... How can you claim they migrated out of Idu when nobody in Idu speaks Igbo... Does it make sense to you?

gregyboy:


yea big one when the blacks to europe they left der language thier culture everything behind and adopted the european lifestyle even there talking even in nigeria north edo thats they estako who are from the benis dont speak benin dont dress in benin attire dont even worship as a christans but muslim and dey still claim benin as there ancestral home so what do have to say to that they didnt actually migrated from benin

cheruv:

We're talking about Great Igboland you're talking about Echako if Igbos truly migrated from Idu like you claim,support the motion for the teaching and learning of Igbo in Benin city... At least it'd be dubbed that the Bini are returning to their roots.
Igboland has experienced three migratory movements which led to the formation of certain places. These movements are the Owere movement(500-800AD), Isu movement(800-1000AD) and Nri movement(900-1100AD).

gregyboy:

the ibos migrated from benin so benin should thought in igbo land not the other way round

cheruv:

Nope...I firmly believe there's no connection btwn Igbo and Idu but if you want that connection then its natural the house of Benin is Igbonized.
So you claim we're from Bini yet during the Biafran war of independence you massacred so many Anioma people in Benin city and Warri. That's one of the reasons I support the restoration of Biāfra... At least whatever remaining links Igbos have to Benin would be cut off.
Till then,keep deceiving yourself that Igbos came from Idu

BornStunner1:


HAVE YOU OPENED ANOTHER MONIKER SO I CAN BAN AGAIN

hammarT:


u make me laugh.

gregyboy:


incorrect during biafra we massacred the benins who couldnt identify themselves as benin or speak benin,the ibos the hausa etc who were not benins to keep our pple save

Ngozi123:


Yes but you really need to tone it down a bit. Igbo women are not your enemy; without the support of Igbo women then Igbo men would be nothing and vice versa.

cheruv:

You're still saying what I said earlier... Your Bini people killed up to five Igbos(of course Anioma are Igbos) btwn Benin city and agbor with a further two thousand in sapele and warri
See Anioma at this point in time doesn't need that useless brotherhood with Bini people. With the passage of time,we'd either Igbonize Benin city itself or cut off whatever links Benin has to the East

gerg:
Who are you to speak for Anioma? Even the bone of contention here (Obi of Issele Uku) doesn't think in same direction as you. He went to Oba's palace to receive the Oba's fatherly blessing as tradition demands. Anioma people are not interested in the Igbo hatred. We are lovers and not haters like you easterners.

Ngozi123:


Please stop insulting people's mothers here; that's taking it way too far.

cheruv:

Am Anioma... So I've every right to speak for the whole Western Igbo cultural group. We're the same as our siblings to the East and lemme tell you something, we formed 40% of Biafra's military leadership... The Biafran chief of naval staff was from Agbor while that of air staff was from ukwuani.
Stop deceiving or hyping yourself on that Bini trash kos when the time comes,we the Western Igbo would do away with whatever Bini shit we've on us.
You hate the Igbo but love Anioma... And you think we're children to be deceived by such useless claims after massacring our people in 1967??
Abeg go and sit down!

gerg:
No single Anioma person has the right to speak for the whole Anioma because Anioma is divided on this Igbo thing. The relationship and affinity Anioma has with Bini spans into millenium and you can't just wish that away. throw away Bini shit? you must be kidding. and you even agreed there are some Bini shit?

As for Biafra, there is difference between Biafra and Igbo. Even some Yorubas fought for Biafra, so tell me why Anioma's case is different? I am not Igbo but if war should break up in Nigeria and I were a soldier, I will fight for Biafra. I want Biafra but this doesn't mean I should throw away my Bini heritage.

cheruv:

Its clear you're one of the descendants of the Bini army the Anioma resistance crushed in the great Ubulu war of 1755 and scattered their remnants all over Anioma. Every Anioma town from agbor in the West to onicha in the East to abo in the South all sent reinforcements to help defend Ubulu Ukwu during that Bini war of aggression. The only town that did not was Isele Ukwu.
You Edo descendants are recent settlers to Anioma... So when issues concerning Anioma are raised,it's pertinent that you allow the aborigines make the decision. As for your stance on Biāfra I'd appreciate that bkos outside the Igbo tag, Biāfra is another identity common to all "bia" speakers

RedboneSmith:


Guy, where is your information coming from? I have a detailed account of the Ubulu-Ukwu war with Idu and the military commanders that fought on both sides. The other towns in Ubulu clan (Ubulu-Unor and Ubulu-Okiti) did not send re-enforcements to Ubulu-Ukwu, not to talk of the whole of Anioma.
