BabaRamota1980:You see that is the problems Igbos have. There a lot of things involve in speaking similar language. You speak the same language with your brother does it make you your brother? Bros please reason. Spanish is similar to Portuguese are they the same? No. We could have a union of Igbos and others who speak different language. It will help everyone.

chrisxxx:[color=#006600][/color] There are Yorubas in Edo, Kwara state. Will one then say they are not Yoruba because they are found in other states? Igbos are present in other states too. It's vengeful fellows like the ones present in nairaland, if given the opportunity will ensure Igbos are thrown into the Atlantic ocean because of hate and envy. Government people just woke up one morning and drew a line on the ground to decide which area one will reside. Just like Ebira which are found in Niger, FCT, Nasarawa and Edo states. Yet they are all still Ebira. 1 Like |

chrisxxx:You cannot take that away. Anywhere outside the UK, nobody talks much about Welshman or Irishman....they see them all as English people or UK people, it is then that these people will clarify that they are not English but Welsh or Irish. It won't take Igbos anything to deny Goodluck Jonathan, but because of Igbos defending Goodluck Jonathan, Hausa-Fulanis and Yorubas have called Igbos several names, attacked so many Igbos offline and online just for standing for Goodluck Jonathan. Igbos went all out to defend Ousted CJN Walter Onnoghen, and if they had the power they would have even restored his position, if it were to be Niger Delta people, they will deny Igbos and even join to nail Igbos to the cross and give reasons how late Ojukwu and Aguiyi Ironsi stopped Adaka Boro from agitating for Niger Delta freedom. You can bookmark this page, it won't continue like that with time, younger generation of Igbos are observing, they are becoming wiser....just as America generation of today have stopped playing big brother and Police of the oppressed in the world....and reason so many Middle-East terror groups are expanding into Africa. That time will come if the so called Niger Delta people of today don't change their attitude towards Igbos of today, crude oil that's making them deny Igbos today will not be there forever!!! 2 Likes 1 Share |

chrisxxx :
Your grandma is entitled to her opinions and not to her own facts Ikwerres were identified and classified as Igbos from the moment colonials set foot in the east, just like other Igbo clans like Nsukka, Idemili, Nkanu, etc were classified as same. Igbo was a generic term for us all. So you see things like Owerri-Ibo, Ikwerre-Ibo, Etche-Ibo, Isuama-Ibo, Onicha-Ibo, Enuani-Ibo, Ika-Ibo, Awka-Ibo, Izzi-Ibo, Agbaja -Ibo, Aro-Ibo,Ngwa-Ibo, Ndoki-Ibo, etc in colonial documents. Everyone one had their own clan they pay allegiance to, while Ibo was a generic term for all. What Ikwerre did after the war was erase the generic name, promote the clan name to a generic one, and then replace the big void created by removing Ibo with a fabricated Bini origin story and undiluted Igbophobia.
Ikwerres were not the only Igbo clan who formed a convention. Infact, within the Igbo union of those days, each Igbo clan had their own independent union, with Igbo union only serving a supervisory role. Mbaise had their own convention, Ngwa had theirs, every clan had theirs and the inter clan associations rivalry was very high and tense. Igbo union tried to keep everyone calm. I notice that modern Ikwerre revisionists usually hype about this Ikwerre Convention as a proof of their non Igbo agitations, like other Igbo clans didn't have theirs at that same period.
While I agree with you 100% that Ikwerre is not Igbo and that Ohanaeze Ndiigbo owe the rest of Igbo clans the debt of openly announcing expulsion of Ikwerres from Igbo Union and the expulsion of all Ikwerre persons currently holding post in the union. I have to set the history right. There is a thread about The COR agitation and willink commission . No Ikwerre person came to the commission and denied they are not Igbos. Also note that the Afiko, Izzi, Ezza and Ikwo were also involved in the commission deliberations, this wasn't because they were denying their Igbo identity, but because just like Ikwerre, Ogba, Ekpeye and Etche, they were sharing a province with minorities in Ogoja province. So we know for sure that while Ikwerres like other Igbo clans had their own conventions that promoted their clannish agitations and aspirations, they were not pushing for severance from Igbo union entirely, neither were they in Igbo denial, as of 1957 when the commission was set up.
Any neutral evidence dated 1963 to support the claim that Ogbakor Ikwerre declared for independence from the Igbo in 1963. Please don't quote materials dated after 1963. Elugruonu vs Nwanodi issue had been addressed severally here, see here, you lots must stop twisting things out of context. : Ikwerre were only in Willink commission process just as Izzi, Ezza Ikwo and Afikpo people were. They shared provinces with minorities and at no point told the willink commission that they favour independence from Igbo ethnicity to float their own individual tags. 4 Likes 1 Share |

chrisxxx: Actually, there have been times in history billions believed in a lie. Like flat earth, demon causative theory of disease, the humoral balance theory of disease, the belief by many white races that blacks are subhumans, etc. We know for sure that Ikwerre claim to Bini origin is a post 1970 historical shameful fabrication , we know that Ikwerre fully participated in Igbo Union activities before 1970. We know that Ndiigbo never marginalized Ikwerres, because while we had non Ikwerre political office holders representing PH, we also had non Nkanu/Nike/Ngwo political office holders representing Enugu capital, we had an Ogba man by the name S. O Omasi, an Ogba man from ONELGA serving as provincial commisoner for Onitsha province in Eastern region. What then, should Onitsha and Enugu people have started crying of Igbo domination, by tagging other clans Igbos and themselves non Igbos, because a non Onitsha or Enugu indigene was picked by NCNC to represent the province? See the list of provincial commisoners in Eastern region below. : Eastern Regional Provincial Commissioners 1. Michael C. Awgu [ Igbo : Awka ] - Abakaliki province 2.

chrisxxx: Since you copied the bolded from depth of lies, you have made a sermon out of it. There was nothing like federal election in 1965. There was federal election of 1964 which was boycotted by NCNC, AG, UMBC and NEPU. However during regional election in 1965, few boycotted areas saw election and majority of NCNC candidates were returned unopposed. The Elugaraonu saga was not Ikwerre issue. The contest was for Mile 2 Diobu district which was under Ahoada Cnetral District or constituency. The fight was between Orlu/Okigwe axis and Mbaise/Bende. Ikwerre was never a factor in the outcome that saw young Barrister Nwobidike Nwanodi who had no penny of his own or grassroots support to win in Ahoada Division. Mbaise/Bende axis wing of NCNC had adopted Nwobidike Nwanodi for Mile 2 Diobu in Ahoada Central District to regional house. Even though Mr. Elugwaraonu was from Mbaise, his town union has informed him that their support was marked for Nwobidike Nwanodi because Elugwaraonu stepped down as a candidate for Mayor of Port Harcourt. Elugaraonu insisted to run as independent and lost the election. Even as the election was concluded from the polls, it took tribunal headed by Chief R.B.K. Okafor which was setup by NCNC to resolve the political saga. Mr. Elugwaraonu was not the only prominent politicians who ran as independent and lost. Chief Emenike, the former and first Mayor of Port Harcourt, also lost as independent candidate. 4 Likes |

Dedetwo: Thanks for setting record right. Imagine the type of lies these Igboids are spinning against Ndiigbo when Nwanodi himself was sponsored by an Igbo clannish group. This was same with Eyo Ita, who had many Igbo supporters who together with him refused to step down when Zik wanted a reset button pressed. Those Igbo members were ejected from NCNC together with Eyo Ita, who they rallied around to form a new party and tried to wrestle power from NCNC and failed. It was never a tribal thing. It was about ideological interests with Igbos fully represented on Eyo Ita and Zik sides, likewise minorities. But modern day history revisionists have twisted everything to run along with their Igbophobic agenda. Imagine S. O Omasi from Ogba was representing Onitsha province as the Commissioner when he wasn't from the province, simply because he lived and worked in the province all his adult life, hence NCNC found him worthy to represent the zone. Ogba-Bini modern day Igbophobic revisionist would not note this when they start running their agenda of Igbos marginalizing them in Eastern region. 4 Likes |
