It’s Obigbo Not Oyigbo, It’s Igweocha Not Port Harcourt Nnamdi Kanu by MrayNgozi(f): 4:23pm On Nov 20, 2020
Nnamdi Kanu Leader Of The Indigenous People Of Biafra IPOB has made a claim that Oyigbo ought to be called Obigbo.
Nnamdi Kanu Posted On His Official Page saying that “It is #OBIGBO, not Oyigbo. Britain may have gotten away with planting the fake name Port Harcourt in our brains in place of the rightful name #IGWEOCHA

This time around we will not allow a bunch of badly educated people, full of self-hate, to change a name that has been in existence for over 5000 years.



Igbo people never changed the name of anybody’s town or village, therefore, nobody has the right to come to our land to give us a name that has no meaning.

The fact European Bible wrongly referred to it as #Jerusalem does not mean the original name #Yerushalayim is an attempt at land grab by the Jews of Israel but a reflection of historical reality.



You may call it #Rome but to Italians, the proper name is #Roma and that is what they call it to this day. You call it #Munich but the Bavarian owners of the land know and call it #Munchen.

To us the owners of the land in Igweocha, the correct name is OBIGBO, foreigners are free to call it Oyigbo if they like, it won’t change the identity of the people or originality of the name

This is the type of arrogance that led to Ojukwu loosing the support of the Eastern Minorities and the Biafran War.

They told you more than 1000 times it is Oyigbo and Port Harcourt not Obigbo or Igwe Ocha . Respect your hosts you need their cooperation to thrive.

What Nnamfi Kanu is saying is the fact. The place being called Jerusalem is actually called Yerushalayim. Jerusalem has always been an imposed name.

I dont know why when the historical and ancestral name of a place is mentioned, some people will start arguing about how the 'imposed' name is now the real name

Who does that?
