Skyfornia:You're drifting.. I'm only Concerned about new word formation from a word. Besides Enugu is no where even more igbo than the other igbo states I listed Also the word Enugu itself has been oyobonized.. It should be Enugwu for top of mountain and not Enugu, so get it straight away |

Re: What Is Someone From Enugu Called? Look At This by Ikennamurphy: 8:58am On Jul 12, 2020 |
Osagyefo98:But that's the truth.. The guy is claiming he doesn't want it to be oyibonized whereas Enugu itself is an oyibonized word.. Enugwu should be the right thing according to his thinking |

Ikennamurphy: School me?? Where’s the schooling? For your information... Ponder over these... People from the following places are called... England...English Scotland....Scottish or Scots/man/woman Uzbekistan...Uzbek or Uzbekistani Iran is Iranian while Iraq is Iraqi Kiribati...I-Kiribati not Kiribatian Vanuatu is called Ni-Vanuatu Liverpool...people are called Liverpulilean or Scouser Demonyms which refer names given to people from a particular place must not necessarily follow a particular pattern like...ian as in Nigerian or ean seen in Chilean. As a young boy, Anambra people were referred to as Ndi Agbaenu while Enugu people were referred to as Ndi Wawa.. Anambrarian sounds very silly, unintelligent and boring. I have always seen myself as Onye Anambra cos that’s my ancestral home but I’m also Onye Enugu because I grew up in coal city. 042 is just a swag name which started few years ago due to the phone code...042-331234 phone numbers while Onitsha is 046-123456. Onye Anambra anyday, any time. Btw, what will you call someone from Borno state or Abuja? 5 Likes 1 Share |

Depressed101: Before the 042 code, Enugu minus Nsukka people were referred to as Wawa. Anambra....Agbaenu |
