Ishilove: Exactly and as I said earlier, it's usually the older generation who grew up in at Orogun who know the language alot. None of my siblings or cousins speak ukwuani but all my aunts and uncles do. This particular lady probably grew up at Orogun or her parents were mixed thus, being married to an Ukwuani man of course would make them speak predominantly Ukwuani in their home. My dad and mum are from Orogun, but they speak Ukwuani fluently because they grew up in town and their parents spoke the language. If my mom married an Ukwuani man, I'd probably not know a thing in Urhobo if Ukwuani was the only language spoken at home. it boils down to the fact that we are intertwined though. We've always been very close with Ukwuani people. 2 Likes |

Ishilove: Beta student! I did that in my year One: Social Science 1&2 In Year One, I did a bunch of courses that had no business with why I was in school BTW, I heard that the corpses of Urhobo women are often buried in their paternal homes when they die...even if they were married. That clause is disturbing and ought to be expunged. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Fejoku: Yeah because it's what happened. We are very much intertwined and what affects the Ukwani man affects the Orogun man too. We are more stubborn being that the average Orogun man, has a heart of stone when he wants and doesn't take kindly to being intimidated. Senator Omo-Agege should give you more insight about us and he speaks Ukwuani too BTW. The Amai people know this and it's rubbed off on them too. Our Ogbu back, never touch ground before in history you can research it. Lol |

That guy (Op) is a paid Fulani Urchin. I know him very well. He owns about two other monikers on this forum causing trouble among Southerners. Majority of them are here bearing Igbo names, some Yoruba names, while some attach southern towns or identities to their names. Some equally attach Jesus to their names to make you think they are Christians and Southerners, my people do not be deceived. They are from Futa Jalon trying to use their Taqqiya on us but they have failed already and will continue to fail. 6 Likes |

SmartPolician: At the bolded, I don't know where you've seen this happen but I can emphatically say no! It's not like that. In the Urhobo tradition, when a man marries a woman, she becomes "his property". So his land becomes hers. So this can only happen if the husband didn’t marry her properly, or her family never gave consent- at least for the cases I've seen, except the woman is a titled woman in her home soil. I will give you an example. My great grandfather was from Orogun and was the Okpara-Ukwu (oldest man) before he passed many years ago. His wife from Amai, went on to live up to over a hundred years and she was the Onwai of Amai. At her passing, she was first brought to her husband's house/land, some part of the celebrations were done there as custom demands, thereafter she was taken to be buried at her home in Amai. Why was this? A titled woman especially an Onwai isn't deemed a "woman" per say anymore but a "man" who's a mother of the community. So at her passing she comes to rest in the land she led during her life time. Modified: Now put it in contrast. Her son, my grandfather, also married a woman (my grandmother) from Amai. But at her passing, she was buried at Orogun in her husband's house. I hope it's not too complicated the way I explained it Lol |

Fooolishbuharri: I don't know so much about all the tribes in Delta State, but I know an Urhobo girl it happened to. She told me it's their tradition. Ask core Urhobo people; they should know. I didn't make that up. |

SmartPolician: Perhaps... after all, everywhere have their peculiarities. But if you dug deeper, you may see the reasons I attached could be the cause and even if I can't know everything, Orogun people are among the core Urhobos; Well we all are and an Urhobo man be it from Okpara or okpe is a brother to me any day anytime.

GBOKASINCHA: This is not necessary. But don't worry aku fesia odalu awo. It's either the prodigal son returns or he will die a nonentity! "Ofu obi" with a non Igbo speaking group but disunity with your own brethren is nothing but exercise in futility. When election comes around there is never "ofu obi." I have Igbo Delta in-laws who is a politician and also on appointment and NO there is no "ofu obi" with Uhrobo. This , however, is a common knowledge. |

GBOKASINCHA: I don't know why some of us (that's if you're truly Igbo) lack diplomacy. I was enjoying the discussion here and learning about tribes in Delta until you made this unfortunate and unreasonable statement. How did you conclude that the person you quoted denies being Igbo? I have seen many Igbos west of the Niger that are proud of their heritage even though there are still some misguided ones. I'm happy that Southerners are beginning to unite so we can better fight an enemy threatening all of us. Let's encourage that spirit of togetherness. 6 Likes |
