Just read the first sentence of that link and stop arguing unnecessarily

When Europeans say that Africans are intellectually lazy, most Africans jump into the nonsense called "racism". I could have edited the crap from Wikipedia any manner that I wanted which excluded the mention of "Boat people and European Porters" to the mix. Yet it is the silly line of your defense.

Shut up your putrid mouth. I guess it is safe to say Aba is not Igbo. Even Igweocha is Ijo and Opu Obu (Opobo) is Ijo too. What is Opu obu in ijo? Pal. I was born and raised in the neighborhood in discussion. I know the original and unadulterated names of some of these places. Of course, Bonny, is an English word while Ubani is an Igbo word. I remembered when one dude in the same mold of character as you told us his grandfather was Igbo from Ezebudele, Asa Ukwa West LGA yet he is Ijo. How can a person's progenitor was Ashanti and suddenly the person becomes Ewe? I guess only in the shithole called Nigeria.

when people start loosing an argument, the resort to insults.
I know nothing about Aba except that it is a city in Abia, I won't argue Aba with u.
Don't ask me what is Opobo in ijo, Ijaw as a tribe as many distinct dialect, u can't understand all, no body that I know of does

You guys can create as many wikipedia pages to try and take over UBANI, which means The Richness of Land in Igbo. It will not work

In the book, a snippet of which is attached to my signature, there was nothing like IBANI there. The word IBANI came years or decades after that book.

In that book, there was reference made to Ijaw porters who came in from Brass. They obviously metamorphosed into the tribe you now call IBANI, which must be a corruption of the Igbo word for the town UBANI. Basically, IBANI is a recent coinage. The Ijaw element of UBANI (Bonny) and Opobo, were migrants from Brass. That's all.

Ngwa/Ndoki-Igbos own UBANI, and their royal family and the royal family of the Kalabari, are Igbo in origin. Facts don't lie

Nope, I do not insult. Okay, for the sake of semantics, you wrote Bonny is not Igbo. Sure, it is English. However Ubani is neither English nor Ijo. Bonney is angelized Ubani. Ubani is Ngwa via Akwete.

In fact in some very old English books, it is referred to as NEW CALABAR. So I agree with you. KALABARI couldn't have been an Ijaw

That book was written by an entirely neutral source from the UK. It was written before the word IBANI was coined. It is admissible in any court of law. No escape route for you here grin grin grin

It was written even before my great great grand father was born. It was written nearly a hundred years before Nigeria was created.

It was written before wikipedia, that can be edited by anybody.

I am part of the Jumbo family in bonny. though I don't go there cos my paternal home is in Kalabari which I grew up from

What argument if I may ask? Every goon in the shithole called Nigeria probably know that Bonny is neither Igbo nor Ijo word. Even Kalabari is not ijo. In fact, I had to include Ama onye ana abo, the person whose compound is swept by the community on certain days. grin grin grin

The original name of European Porters from Akwapim-Togo region. Jumbo was derived from Ghana word Jebrin or Jibri. I really do not want to rain on your parade but the hidden facts must be stated at times.

Ijo was never an ethnic group until lately. Ijo was also derived from a Portuguese term meant for people who live by the Riverside. I guess you know how the name for the people of "Brass" came about to become.

You must be a kindergarten level kid.

You don't want to read the snippet, and you are here screaming that you need the name of the book.

If you had been smart enough, you would have seen the name of the book at the bottom of that snippet. " Culled from......... "

I will not mention the name of the book here, as your bots have banned me several times for mentioning it here. I know you want me to mention it, so that I will be banned. I know you Ijaws don't want that book known about. But I know of it, and in fact I have the full book.

That was specifically why I attached it to my signature, as that doesn't result in an automatic ban.
