Of course , there is no tradition nor legends that proves Onicha had Bini ancestry , it just doesn't exist , because Onicha is too deeply embedded in Igbo culture. The original Onicha dialect which you can only find in old music record is heavily diluted by Omanbala and Idemmili Igbo , their neighbors. No need crying over spilt milk, Onicha and Enuani are too Igbotic , even if they themselves deny it. Nobody loves Nze na Ozo more than Onicha...lol |

KingOKON: Oga , forget that Onicha matter , ain't gonna fly. Obi Achebe will not tolerate that nonsense because if he entertains that idea he will anger the very wealthy and influential Anambra people. |

KingOKON:Yup! The Igalas are the first/original settlers of what is now Onitsha. There are 9 quarters in Onitsha, and the current Obi confirmed in an Ofala festival documentary that I saw in 2017 that it was the Igala boat people that ferried his Bini forebears and migrants across the river Niger to Onitsha about 400 years ago. The Obi of Onitsha Ado n'Idu also said in that interesting Ofala festival documentary that he has Bini, Igala and Ibo ancestries! The Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Ogunwusi was also a guest at that year's Ofala festival being his first visit as an Oba. 1 Share
