What am I proving? That isoko are Igbo.

BKayy:

Abohboy you hear am?
I don't know what made you think you can deceive us with Igbo sounding names.
See your sister being truthful to everybody

isokomarine:
you are right, even isoko bear okorafo but not common

Abohboy:


Why would she matter to me? Also by this your logic the communities being claimed in Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Iboma and it's environs aren't actually Igbo that they just happen to speamm the language but are Isoko or Ijaw I hope you know you're working against the will of every other Igbo person here. Us Ndokwa, Ukwuani, Bonny, Agbor etc. ARE ALL IGBOS

kmcutez:


We call him okorafo. I’m not sure how it’s spelt. My first and last name sounds Igbo. Most people think I’m Igbo when they hear my name, but both parents are isoko.

Efewestern:


What's your name?

We have some Urhobo names that sound igboid but aren't.

Umukoro is one good example.

In igbo, it can be translated into Umu-okoro (Children of Okoro)

but in Urhobo it means Umuko-oro (Golden Cup).

If you tell me your name, I will give it its Edoid translation.

You know you are lying but you think it's cool because you don't know the implications.

Oza is husband I think

Efewestern:


Lying? What will I benefit from lying?

First, I've given you all use of okoro amongst the Edoid groups and second, some of these groups had no contact with igbo, so it's just impossible for them to borrow a word from a group of people they never had contact with.

Okoro was used by ancient Bini kingdom and we all know how the Bini influenced most groups in southern Nigeria, that was how tribes like Itsekiri and Ilaje got to make use of it. Definitely, Urhobo being a direct offshoot of Bini kept its usage.

Okoro is derived from the Edoid word "Oko". Oko When translated into English means Young man.

Found a man trying to teach Isoko on Youtube

So far I've learned

1. Ere - Eating
2. Enve - Monkey
3. Anye - Women
4. Omu - Child


I understand all this as an Igbo man..

Umudike call wife or ur woman inye
UMU is child in Igbo

Enwe is monkey in Igbo

Iri is eating in Igbo

4get spelling n pronounce them..you see that an Igbo man will understand it all but think is someone learning Igbo language

This ones are far better understandable than Afikpo n Nsukka

BKayy:

You claim to know your history and to an extent that of Ndigbo but a lady from Ndokwa East (which your Aboh is the HQ) is proving beyond Reasonable doubt here that both You and her are Isoko and all you can do is attempt to sabotage what Ndigbo have worked for over the years.
Mtcheww, Nwokem go and sit down one place let's enjoy this lady's submission

Abohboy:



You realize that different areas can have different people living within them right? And that different ethnic groups can be within a single LGA? If you don't know this then you're an idiot becaus that should be obvious to anyone who knows anything about Nigeria, Delta State has 5 major ethnic groups including Igbo, Urhobo, Isoko, Itsekiri and Ijaw and where i'm from Aboh is an igbo community

kmcutez:


I know Chioma is an Igbo name. That is why I said so in the first place because it was strange name for an isoko person to bear. I’ve never seen an isoko person bear the name Chioma except my mum. My father is isoko, my mom is isoko. I said both my parents are isoko. My first and last name sounds isoko, same as my brothers and sisters and some of my relatives. Deal with it. I will ask my mum where both my great grand parents are from.

kmcutez:

My mum also said there are lots of isoko communities in Ndokwa east where her parents are from. Don’t run mad from land issues o.

kmcutez:


She said her none of her parents/great are Igbos. They are from Aboh. She also mentioned a place where they are from called Adiae Obiaka. What does that mean?

kmcutez:


Lol.Bkkay making me sound crazy. I have no idea what his problem is with that name.

kmcutez:


I lived in Lagos all my life, visited delta when I was a kid, so don’t know much.

BKayy:

Showing concerns about Territory is the biological deposition of a male specie. Which by God's grace I am a member of, thus proving why I should be concerned about another group coercing part of the territory I represent.


As for your mother telling you that there are lots of "isoko communities" in Ndokwa proves the very low level they exist in the local Government. Anything that is the majority doesn't need research to figure out from the pack.
If Isoko is that significant in Ndokwa, you should have been mentioning names with distinct identity not how "this person bearing Igbo name, looks like Igbo and practice Igbo custom is actually Isoko" then backed with one unverified story/folktale or the other

BKayy:

Nobody said you are Igbo but thank God you managed to prove my post right.
Your Father and Mother who are Isoko made sure non of your siblings bear Emeka or Chiamaka which proves that no two Isoko parents can name their Children Full Igbo names for no reason.
As for your mother. Find out how she got her Igbo name.
Even if she is full blooded igbo, that still doesn't make you Igbo because your own father is not.
You are a full Isoko lady my dear but your identity doesn't decide that of your local Government or Neighbours.
Ndokwa is Igbo land.
I hope this helps.
Thank you

Where is Don Jazzy from? They wrote in Wikipedia he is Isoko but Don Jazzy once said he is Igbo. Meanwhile his father's full name is Collins Ifeanyi Owuneme Ajere Enebeli.

I'm not saying Isoko is Igbo and I dont want them to be.

BKayy:

Only the true sons of Idu (those that maintain their igbo root) and contact with Ndigbo use Okoro to describe men and it is not Okoro standing on its own but reflecting the circumstances of it.
Okorafo = Okoro Afọ (a man born on Afọ market day)
I believe you've now been clarified.
As for before, I was allowing you all air your ignorance to the fullest before clarifying.
