you guys think very well. How is Amechi an Igbo man? Cos he bears the name Chibuike Amaechi abi?
Amaechi who hates igbos with great passion.
A man who denied igbos the benefits accrued to them is now an Igbo man. A man who denies big time he is not an igbo man is now more better? Lol. ohaneze and some people eh!
Rather the Igbo tribe stand firm and other minority tribe attach to them, the foolish selfish ohaneze are the ones indirectly seeking favor from a minority tribe cos of peanut. It's a big shame.
You don't beg someone to be your brother or be in your camp.
I am an Igbo, if it's just between Tinubu and Amaechi, I would rather vote for Tinubu. Amaechi is just like Wike.
Joe Igbokwe haven't denied he is not an Igbo but Amaechi have. So who is more trust worthy?

For all I care, the circumstances of your birth is beyond what you can change through your actions and inactions.

Deal with that.

We have recorded this. Now, Amaechi is Igbo. Just like Azikiwe Jonathan was (is) Igbo. We no wan complaint later say Igbo never rule this nation o. We hate confused people.

Jonathan has no Igbo heritage. Biafra connection and oneness of old Eastern states endeared him to Igbos.

Unlike the south-westerners that can sell their fellow brother on saddle in exchange for second fiddle, Igbos are not betrayers.

Amaechi is ancestral Igbo heritage name.

PressMyButton:
Ohaneze are a bunch of mkpurumiri addicts. There's no where Ameachi has ever claimed to be ibo except for political buffoonery. It is on record where Amaechi himself said he is not ibo.
He has only referred to his origin as Ikwerre in all his official profiles.
These red cap lizards should show a little sense of shame and stop the low self-esteem attache-by-force to a minority tribe.



All these denials of been Igbo or not is all because of the loss of the biafran war once the igbo nation takes their rightful place in nigeria's politics all these constant denials by minority Igbo speaking communities outside Igbo heartland will definitely stop.

I think this statement from ohaneze claiming Amaechi is an igbo man is the most stupid statement I have ever heard from them.
Now I know why some igbos don't buy into the organization.
Amaechi is an ikwerre man.
Ikwerres are not Igbos.
And last time I checked(I lived and worked in Rivers state for awhile) , the average ikwerre individual don't identify themselves as Igbo.
Some of them even dislike the igbos.
You are the idiot here.

EdwardRandy:

Why are you running round the thread trying to discredit the obvious? What will you gain from living in denial about the true originality and expansion of the igbo tribe?

I am igbo from delta state and I did my nysc in etche, rivers state, a well known ikwerre land. And guess what? While I served there I can count how many times I spoke English with the locals, we all communicated in igbo.

Ikwerre is not a tribe rather a clan in igbo land, just as me who is an Ibuzor man from delta state in igbo land. Please be educated and stop fooling yourself.
Half education is as dangerous as not being educated at all. Etche is not Ikwerre land. They are ethnic group of their own. This is now you guys carry fake news. Your father told you that you are Igbo. My father told me I am Ikwerre. Why give me a name that I am not?

. Ikwerre denied being igbos in 1964. Some good years before the war. It was a time they had everything to gain by identifying to be Igbo. Please check Rumuomasi Declaration.
. It is, therefore, obvious that the interminable debate about Ikwerre origins and migrations including the repudiation of the Igbo tradition is not a phenomenon of the post-civil war period. The controversy, as it were, is not necessarily the product of the present political realities wherein groups which hitherto were seen to have cultural affinities now find themselves in different states or administrative systems.” — K.O. Amadi (1993)

The Ogbakor Ikwerre Convention, a cultural organization of Ikwerre people, in a paper presented to the Human Rights Violation Commission headed by Rtd. Justice Chukwudifu Oputa on 10 October 2001, said:“Ikwerre ethnic nationality is not and has never been a sub-group of any other tribe in Nigeria including Ndi-Igbo. There is no doubt that the advent of the British and later regionalization put Ndi-Igbo at the helm of affairs in Eastern Nigeria. This brought Ndi-Igbo into Ikwerre land. In course of time, the Igbo took advantage of their position in the then Eastern Regional Government to grab land in Ikwerre and occupy political positions such as the mayor of Port Harcourt. In the process, Ikwerre along with other minority groups were marginalized and driven to the background.”

Professor Godwin Tasie noted that in 1913 the Rt Rev Herbert Tugwell, the Anglican Bishop on the Niger, undertook an experimentation tour of Ikwerre towns and villages assumed to be Ibo-speaking to test the Union Ibo Bible Nso being introduced in Iboland. “Tugwell discovered from the tests he carried out that although the Ikwerre were often regarded as Ibo… the Union Ibo Bible translation, surprisingly, was not easily understood by the Ikwere.” This is obviously why Igbo vernacular was compulsorily introduced and taught in all schools in Ikwerreland before the Nigerian Civil War to the assimilation (i.e. destruction) of the Ikwere language.

This also obviously led to the Rumuomasi Declaration in 1965. ” … in their meeting at Rumuomasi in 1965 the Ikwerre had, under the umbrella of a highly promising new body that was to get the Ikwerre together as a people of new and clearer vision, they had declared themselves as a people of the distinct identity of Ikwerre Ethnic Nationality – not Ibo, not Ijo, not anything else but Ikwerre, Iwhnurọhna. This was the historic Rumuomasi Declaration of 1965 (G.O.M. Tasie, 2000). The full implication is that Ikwere people began to assert themselves forcefully as an ethnic nationality of their own and not Ibos or Ijos, and efforts were made to revert to the original Ikwere names for families, villages, communities and landmarks. For instance, there was the change from Umuola to Rumuola, Umuoro to Rumuoro, Umukrushi to Rumuokwurusi, just to name a few

No need for all these very long stories ikweres can claim anything no one really cares but the fact still remains that an average hausa/fulani northerner in the north can't actually differentiate a chinedu ikwere man from chinedu igbo man in times of crises.

How come Wike an ikwere man always denying being ibo?
think it is politics. Igbos are generally hated and are being discriminated against especially after the civil war and some Igbos outside Southeast want to play smart. For instance, in places where the landlord doesn't want an Igbo tenant, a Rivers or Delta Igbo can claim to be a Rivers or Deltan person in order to be accommodated. Thanks.

You Igbo people are your own problems!
Simple!
I said what I said UNAPOLOGETICALLY.

This your proud spirit and love to acquire what is not yours will definitely Truncate whatever plans you have been cooking underground.

My bible made me understand that
God himself detests a proud spirit but embraces a humble one.

Let me ask you this;
In the event that power gets to east, what will you do?

Will you start allocating all the south southern lands and claim Lagos(you called a no man's land ) as your own?

Be humble! And let God raise you

My observation; 90% of all Igbos are proud and selfish.

Anyone can prove me wrong!
