Like I said, the greatest achievement of a Yoruba is to be considered Igbo.

See where your Shameless people started claiming to be Igbo.
Pathetic Yorubas.

I told you that the fallacy of Yorubas claiming Igbo was sponsored BY Western Region.

YourNemesis:


Dare ko, Deer ni.
If you want to be daring, go play Russian roulette.

Look at him, celebrating being Igbo.

Yorubas attaching themselves to Western Igbo as a way to uplift themselves is a fallacy that died with Western Region

In Nigeria, one don't argue who the superior is because circumstances makes it visible to the blind.

Of all the lies being churned by Yorubas, just few decades of being grouped with Western Igbos under Western Region, they devoted special attention to attach themselves to Anioma as a way to tap into the Igbo glory

@Nisai, you can see your people Shameless roping themselves into the Igbo folk just because Anioma managed to fall into Western Region.
You now see why a Yoruba man went extra mile to attach his kinsmen that migrated to Igboland in 20th century to the indigenous Odiani. You now see the answer to why a Yoruba would call his brother an Igbo name and still call the other Igbo people bearing that name "his brothers"

Its all to attach themselves to the superior Igbo culture.

If you call an Odiani person, Yoruba (not even the "Igalaoid" speaking people from Ebu), you may risk losing your head.
Most Odiani hold the Igbo identity to heart. It is surprising and not surprising. It is not surprising because Odiani are basically inside Enuani. Enuanis consider themselves the "true" Igbos of Delta. (*Igbodo, though in Ika politically consider themselves Enuani people and "pure" Igbo)

The Odiani holding on to an Igbo identity is also surprising for the fact that they are also around neighbouring groups like Ika and Ukwuanis (Minus Ndosumili) where identity crisis is really strong. Despite the fact that they are mostly bilingual and hold on to an Igbo or Enuani identity, whereas Ikas and Ukwuani with an identity crisis despite having only one language.

It is actually only two communities (Ugbodu and Ukwunzu) in Odiani clan that have very few families that can speak Olukwumi, the rest speak Igbo. Those few families that can speak Olukwumi are descendants of the few Yorubas that migrated to the place to mine kaolite (what is used to make chalk/Nzu) in early 20th century.

Olukwumi, unlike the propaganda from Yorubas are relatively new migrants to the area around early 20th century or very late 19th century. The name "Olukwumi" is the name the indigenous Igbo (Odiani) used to refer to the Yoruba migrants. The name means "my friend" just like "Aboki" that we use to refer Northerners.

The difference is clear to the blind but in mid 20th century, Nigeria was divided into regions and Western Igboland was carved to Yoruba dominated Western Region. So as a trick to attach the Yoruba migrants to the Indigenes and also tap into the Igbo glory, the Yorubas of Wetern region sponsored a gradual inclusion of their kinsmen Olukwumi into the indigenous Igbo Odiani clan

The snippet I posted is one of the many evidences of the fraudulent scheme from Yorubas. The goal was to include their kinsmen into the Igbo clan of Odiani and then rope the entire clan to Yoruba folk although 95% of them speak only Igbo.

The systematic adulteration of Odiani people's history by Yorubas during their stay in Western Region have succeeded in creating a false impression to people that have never been to the place or know the history of the people that Olukwumi has a stake in the peoples history or the new language is that serious.

The case of Olukwumi is just like the Northerners in Ama Hausa, Awka claiming that they are indigenous Awka and proposing history roping the entire Awka people as Hausa stock.

Both Olukwumi and Aboki are the same thing. They mean "my friend", a term Ndigbo in early 20th century used to migrant Yorubas and Hausa respectively.

No doubt, the Olukunmis are recent migrants... they too cannot even contest it. Yeah, they are extremely small.

Ugbodu people have since seen the trouble Yorubas are trying to cause for them in Enu-ani, and have since risen to correct the misconceptions.

http://ugboduanioma..com/2018/11/a-brief-untold-history-about-igbo.html?m=1

I am Anioma, my uncle is governor of Edo state and he is Anioma. If we didn't say so, you wouldn't even know we are Anioma except for the fact that our family is quite famous and therefor doing research on it is quite easy. We are not different from any other Edo family, our emperor is the Oba of Benin, we have our own Benin greeting and our name is like any other Benin name. Just that our family has been famous right from colonization to this day. That is why you would know we are Anioma.

Explanation: before Nigeria was created, ethnicity was either not defined at all, either it didn't have the meaning which you ethnic bigots have given to it today.

Benin city was the capital of Benin kingdom which was a very large precolonial African country led by a king with the exclusif title of Oba.

Like in every country, the capital is a melting pot of people from the various regions of the country, so when people keep saying "Bini" as an ethnicity they are not getting history correctly, the ethnicity (with historical sense) is Edo, and those who live in Benin city are in the centre of Benin Kingdom, therefore they are related to every one from the large precolonial country of Benin Kingdom: Anioma, Esan, Ika, Etsako...

I want to correct some of the ethnic rhetoric which are being spewed right here by the Igbo bkkay (southeast) and the yoruba yournemesis (southwest):

1) all clames of migration from Ife are mythical and false: indeed, ife was a small village until 1912 when the British started urbanising it, the palace of the ooni of Ife who used to be called Oni of ifa in the early colonial era was built around the 1930's-1940's ... The Oni of IFA was referred to by the British as a spiritual leader and not as a king...Everything you hear about Ife these days are just myth created by politicians.

2) it is actually not possible to date bronze with carbon14, so the dating on that Igbo bronze is a fraud.

3) Anioma are not Igbo, they are Anioma, Igbo as a tribe was created by the British by uniting many small neighbouring tribes in order to make it easier and less costly to rule them.
The first precolonial maps of West Africa show Anioma as being part of Benin kingdom.

4) there is no way to know where people migrated from unless the migration is recent (migration written about by eyewitnesses), so any "researcher" making claims of migration from here and there is doing a guess work at best.

5) Delta-state has nothing to do with the southeast, in the precolonial era, Delta state was a sub-territory of Benin Kingdom, then when Benin Kingdom lost a war to Britain, it was devided into several provinces by the British, much of Delta state was part of the warri-province, the rest of it was part of Benin-province, then later on the political game in colonial Nigeria put Benin-province and Warri-province in western Nigeria in which the British had groomed their subservient people (yoruba) to take over political leadership.
Huge parts of western Benin had been flooded with freed slaves right from 1824 (if I remember the dates correctly) and the flooding continued well into the colonial era, those slaves were subservient and grateful to their white masters and their white masters propped them up for political leadership, their name was yoruba which was borrowed from the kingdom of oyo.

5) Delta-state has nothing to do with the southeast, in the precolonial era, Delta state was a sub-territory of Benin Kingdom, then when Benin Kingdom lost a war to Britain, it was decided into several provinces by the British, much of Delta state was part of the warri province, the rest of it was part of Benin province, then later on the political game in colonial Nigeria put Benin province and Warri province in western Nigeria in which the British had groomed their subservient people (yoruba) to take over political leadership.
Huge parts of western Benin had been flooded with freed slaves right from 1824 (if I remember the dates correctly) and the flooding continued well into the colonial era, those slaves were subservient and greatful to their white masters and their white masters propped them up for political leadership, their name was yoruba which was borrowed from the kingdom of oyo.

Change your dealer... Your weed is adulterated

6) So some parts of precolonial Benin kingdom resisted being subjected to the political leadership of the British servants: those parts were the Benin province and the Warri province. Oba Eweka II of Benin started advocating for the creation of the Midwestern region and his son Oba Akenzua II, archived that goal by leading the two provinces out of the western region and into the Midwestern region. Later on, that region was renamed Bendel-state, and later on it was divided into Edo-state and Delta-state.


7)So to the southeasterners whom are trying to confuse the public about a mythical Igbo people (whose identity was actually only virtually created by colonisers to ease their colonial administration), know that we all know you are trying to grab territory for your planned exit from Nigeria and your desperation for ressources and access to the sea, your peoples were landlocked, and when you leave Nigeria, you will go with the land of your ancestors which in no way borders the sea.

You probably got me wrong because the "Una" was ambiguous because you weren't sure if it was referring to your people or both of you as the subjects. Pidgin can be like that sometimes, but context is everything.

Listen and learn.... learn about Ukunzu (Eko efun)


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYkmecPLs7M

Igbo from across river Niger want to claim people village.
In case you don't now, there is an argument between Olukumis (Odiani) and umu Ezechima for antiquity on the land, but both groups respect one another.

(From the video)
How's Aniocha north getting a second constituency in the state house of assembly ahead of uvwie,sapele,udu? All of which has a way more superior voter strength like by far...
That would equate to the urhobo 10 reps and even make it superior to Delta central despite fewer population..
The urhobo seriously need to up their political game because this Anioma might dominate our state @efewestern,Mystiquefia

darfay, there hasn't been any additional seat created. Both North and central has a balanced members of nine each. We also have Warri south I as additional seat.

Also, it would be near impossible for them to dominate. And how do we up their game? I thought some of you said we were too domineering?

BKayy:


...

Aro and Aboh jurisdiction respectively.

Sorry for interrupting.

Are you implying that the Ijaws in Delta South were under the jurisdiction of Aboh Or I misunderstood your message.

If yes, can you tell us the particular kingdoms that were under this jurisdiction?

I would want to learn.
