Stop Dragging Us: Ikwerre Is Not Igbo And That’s The Gospel Truth. by Atouke: 4:12am On Jan 14, 2020
This topic has been over flogged and I am here to end it all. Ikwerre is an ethnic group in River State in the old Eastern Nigeria but fraudulently said to be in the South South.

A creation of the Fulani caliphate to disconnect us properly from the Igbo because of the oil, I have never seen South South on the compass or map anywhere in the world.

We the Ikwerre don’t have anything to do with the Igbo, we have our ancestry through Akalaka (Destiny in Igbo language) who came from Benin and settled in the present Ikwerre land.

‘The fact that Akalaka was the direct father of Ihru ọha (Ikwerre). Iwhnurọhna, in Ikwere parlance, means the face of the community (town, city or village). Nigerian colonial history records that the name “Ikwerre” was given by the colonial administration when they wanted to acquire the Rebisi waterfront to build the wharf. Using an Ibo interpreter to talk to the illiterate Rebisi (Port Harcourt) chiefs, they asked them: Would you permit us to use the waterfront to build the wharf for ships to berth? And the Chiefs answered: A KWERULEM , meaning – “We have agreed.” (In Igbo

Mehn.. 4:13am and someone wakes up from sleep with this?

No one, I mean no one is adding anyone to igbo/Biafra struggle.

Ojukwu made the mistake of trying to liberate them on and found out it was a grievous mistake so he pulled out and let adekunle and his goons almost wipe them out..yes, am talking of the Asaba massacre.

Anyone telling you that igbos are adding you to their struggle lied to you. Trust me on this.

The situation on ground here in the East is that you people are not igbos. You betrayed igbos and even took their properties..so no one is adding you or regarding you as igbos.

Trust me!! The igbos are happy and satisfied with what they have..NO ONE IS ADDING YOU ANYWHERE

@OkpalaAnambra or what ever is your name, Nsuka not Igbo because you can not understand their Language? Can you understand that of Afikpo from Abakeleke or can you Understand when the indigene of Abakaleke speaks and they are not Igbo and maybe from Mar?

When I was schooling in OAU, there is this tribe from Ife, when they speak Yoruba I don't even understand a a world from it, unlike the General Yoruba language and this does not imply that they are not Yoruba. Good morning from Luxembourg, Go and Hustel and make money so you will not be arguing on inconsequential things.

This is nauseating, who cares if they are Igbos or not.

A very small set of people disturbing our peace with useless identity ranting. I just want to ask, is Ikwerre part of a state or does it consist of many states? If the former is the answer then why do they keep constituting nuisance online.

Who gives a sh.it about a small set of people in a state.

Forget about anything one tells about the origin of his ethnic group; the only thing one needs to believe is DNA test.


I think someone should sponsor a DNA test so that all these confusion will stop.

OP didn't give the whole details.
Continuation:

A KWERULEM , meaning – “We have agreed.” (In Igbo)

What the white-man was hearing was “Ikwerre,” so he recorded it in the official gazette that the IKWERRE PEOPLE have agreed for the colonial administration to build the wharf.

Therefore ‘Akwerulam’ later metamorphosized in to Ikwerre, so we are not Igbo.

The umbrella union that gathers all Ikwerre worldwide is call Ogbakor Ikwerre (Gathering of Ikwerre in Igbo)

During the 2015 Presidential campaign, Chibuike Amaechi (Ikwerre man), Speaking in Igbo Izugbe (Central Igbo) while campaigning for Buhari in Aba, told the crowd that the person calling himself Ebele Azikiwe Jonathan(GEJ) is not an Igbo man like him, that if the crowd thinks GEJ is Igbo they should ask him to speak Igbo when he comes to campaign, and recently when people where complaining that Buhari have sidelined Igbo in his government, Chibuike Amaechi came out again to say that people got it wrong that the Igbo are getting their due appointment in Buhari government because he is an Igbo man with appointment in Buhari’s regime.

And then painfully enough Chibuike Amaechi won the Ohaneze Ndigbo Man of the year Award in 2015. Aru!!(Abomination) how could they award an Ikwerre man such accolades? I know their plan; they just want to steal our oil.

2018 December period I watched a video of Julius Agwu, the renowned comedian visit his mum in the village and found her in the farm, she spoke with him a dialect of Igbo I can understand clearly.

Meanwhile, Barr. Uche Okwukwu is the secretary General of Ohaneze Ndigbo and he is from ikwerre land, while the president of Ohaneze Ndigbo in River state is Prince Igo Okparanma from Isiokpo River State.

But I will tell you that we are still not Igbo, we are Ikwerre, get that into your think skull, all you want is our oil, the Fulani ruling cartel can have all the oil wells, you the Igbo already have the highest per capita income in Nigeria, manage that one.

During my university days in Jos Plateau State, I remember vividly whenever the Igbo Union is hosting the annual Igbo Day celebrations at the Jos Township stadium, they usually erect 6 canopies representing Anambra, Abia, Ebonyi, Enugu, Imo and the 6th canopy will house Igbo from Rivers, Delta and Benue States put together.

And also during the unending tribal and religious riots in Jos, we the Ikwerre will always run to an area known as Apata, which is an Igbo stronghold for safety, we can’t even run to an Benin strong hold for safety.

But remember we are still not Igbo, all you want is our oil. we will fight you and make sure you will never smell it, even though there is oil in Anambra, Imo and Abia states, your eyes is on our oil. Let the North that doesn’t have oil maintain all the oil wells in their possession already. Thank You.

The writer was trying to pass his message in a sarcastic way. The greatest joy of the born to rule & her allies is to see the old Eastern region dismantled forever (without unity) So the Oil will continue to flow unhindered to feed the parasitic regions.
