Hey mr man..dont 4ce ur igboness on ukwuani people..i hv told u igbos so many times dat Ukwuani is an ethnic group dat speaks a language dat is considerd similar to edo and igbo language..d fact dat it falls under d igboid class of language dosnt make it igbo language.it was even d colonial masters dat made our ethnicity 2b very much popular because dey saw our culture and loved it more dan dat of d igbos....although d UKWUANIS hav been xistin 1700AD b4 d igbos existence.(where did d colonial masters anchor their ship wen d came to Nigeria?its ABOH in NDOKWA LAND).this is to prove to u dat ukwuanis xisted b4 Igbo.im absolutely sure dat d igbos left 4rm ukwuani land to settle in d less fertile land fill with red mud sand and there was no space 4 dem dats y igbos always fight 4 land...ukwuani means d upland people blessd with much land 4 agriculture.the ukwuani empires settled in d land because it was rich and fertile 4 agriculture.we also tnk God dat d ukwuanis r so much blessd wit d black gold(crude oil and gas).dis is to tell u dat dey settled in d right place b4 d igbos in d east...for example,u cannot assume an urobo man 2b isoko,a bini 2b called esan,an efik man 2b called ibibio,an idoma 2b called igala,an itsekiri man 2b called yoruba man...it sounds foolish dat u igbos dont understand tins...for ur informatn it is not d igbos dat created d multi ethnic groups in nigeria so mind ur business and dont b jealous because d ukwuanis hav wat u dont have..i wish u igbos had kings dey would hav created ethnic groups...but we d ukwuanis have rulers called okpala-ukus who ruled 4 many years..they were d ones dat projected d ukwuanis to wat it is 2day.....The truth is bitter but it is good 4u igbos 2know dat we remain seperate ethnicity despite ur troubles.we d ukwuani people will 4eva reject d igbo as their ethnicity and Uphold NDOKWA/UKWUANI ethnicity because 99% speaks ukwuani language and dont understand igbo(1%)...my grand parents dont understand igbo...iv lived in kogi state,many igbos taugth dat i was a part of dem but later found out dat i couldnt communicate wit dem in Igbo language as i was speakin my UkWUANI so they left me alone...d ukwuani culture and traditions ar totaly different 4rm dat of d igbos.their way of life,dressin,music,food,relationship, is totaly different..d igbos who have being trading in ukwuani land have even isolated themselves 4rm d ukwuani people because dey have found out everytin is different 4rm wat dey assumed..d igbos had 2 compensate themselves by celebratin their igbo cultural day in isolated places such as school playgrounds,gardens, football stadiums etc....d northern part of nigeria has so many tribes but dat dosnt make all of dem hausa.those in d middle belt areas(bassa,nupe,igala,idoma,tiv,etc) r not hausa but hav gotten much influence 4rm d nothern region may be through religious influences which makes majority of us in d south 2 call them hausa which they r not.so it is here in d southern region.d ukwuani people r found in d niger delta central region which hav much influences 4rm d ijaws,urobo,isoko,bini, and d larger part of igbo.all dis doesnt make dem igbo.we r full blooded niger deltans 2d core.4 ur infomation d ukwuani/ndokwa nation have bin recognized as a seperate ethnic identity from d igbo ethnicity many years ago. 90% of us see our selves as ukwuanis and not igbos..we call igbos our neigbours and somtimes our brothers. D igbos and d ukwuani people of delta state and rivers will only come 2geda in nigeria wen it bcoms politically necessary and that is wat we r doin now.we are workin 4d creation of a new state 4rm delta state called ANIOMA STATE which is both 4d UkwuANIS,ikas and Igbos(aniocha/oshimili people)

I never knew all these before. I thought they are Igbos. So when we were about to settle the brideprice, we had some little disagreement, my father told them to let the matter rest, that we are all Igbos. They blatantly told us there and then that they are not Igbos, that they are ukwuani people. To me it was a shock because my wife's name is Ifeoma and the dad's name onyeukwu ifeme. I love my wife so much and my kids. My father inlaw told me they emigrated from somewhere in Bini. He calls me Igbo man. The normal Igbo cola, they call it ukwuani cola.

I wanted my children to pure and un diluted Igbo breed. That is why I am pained

RuggedSniper:
Bini emigration... This is mad sick
