The Need For A Central Edoid Language For All Edoid Groups by iamuyiekpen(m): 5:48pm On Jan 24, 2022 |
It’s no doubt that there’s a need for a central Edoid dialect amongst the Edoid people & those migrated from the Old Benin Empire. Some of these groups include Bini (Edo), Ishan (Edo), Owan (Edo), Afemai (Edo), Ososo (Edo), Warake (Edo), Sasaru (Edo), Etsako (Edo), Uneme (Edo), Yekhee (Edo), Ikpeshi (Edo), Ghuotuo (Edo), Owan (Edo), Emani (Edo), Eruwa (Edo), Okpamheri (Edo), Urhobo (Edo & Delta), Isoko (Delta), Okpe (Delta), Ika (Edo & Delta) Kwale (Delta) Itsekiri (Edo & Delta), Akalaka (Rivers), Degema (Rivers), Diobu (Rivers), Ahoada (Rivers), Uhami (Ondo), Iyayu/Idoani (Ondo), Akoko (Ondo), Epie-Atissa (Bayelsa), Engenni (Rivers & Bayelsa), Ebira (Edo & Kogi) Aduge (Kwara) etc. A United Edoid Nation will be one of the richest not only in Nigeria but in Africa. Last year our Akalaka brothers from Rivers state visited Benin City & joined the Oba in celebrating the Igue festival. This move further strengthened the ties between the Benin kingdom & our Akalaka brothers. 3 Likes |

iamuyiekpen:Glad to know that you people have baptised them. But you could have used a Bini sounding name instead of "Akalaka" so that it won't attract those that actually own the name. Just a suggestion though. 7 Likes |

gidgiddy: Of course they dare not, Enuani people are proud people who cherish their Igbo cultural and traditional identity. It would have been a gross insult to them which would have received immediate public rejection. The promoters of this fantasy project actually knew their boundaries and were smart enough to go with the timid ones 3 Likes |

iamuyiekpen:Sounds reasonable. Although I don't know about Itshekiri. They sound more like Yoruba/Ilaje. So, finally Sufferingboy/queenagbo will be speaking Edo as his native language. Captain8 abi giftibo, you see Engenni and Epie are Edoid. Asides four or five, questionable inclusions here and there, the rest look quite attainable. |
