To all you claiming the guy...He's no more Nigerian than Obama is Kenyan.

Now go and sin no more.

No he isn't.

He represented Nigeria in Basketball.

Americans consider him to be Nigerian.

I hate to break it but, he's Nigerian.

It is "Udoka" meaning "Peace is the most important thing" not "Udofia"

Anyways assuming you people to be under Igbo is even an insult to the great Igbo race.

Get away.

Hahaha. igbos are indeed great race/tribe bt calm down broda. grin

All these people, Ime is Ibibio and Ibibio is not igbo.

Ime means Patience,
Udofia means fourth son.

We are Ibibio, we share culture and language with just the calabar people of cross rive of the efik extraction.. We barely share culture or traditions wit igbo.
We are neighbors with igbo, but brothers with the Efik.

Lets not always subsume ibibio, efik, oron, annang under igbo, its an insult to us..

is it udofia or udoka,, which name did they mention

The thing there is that you will collect your Ime-obong and celebrate while I collect my Udoka and dance Awilo.

The soup here is well packaged international soup, so if you collect the fish, I will collect okporoko and vice versa.

Na when you collect fish and deny me my right to collect Okporoko that trouble will start.

What does Udoka mean in Akwa Ibom? Are you that daft? You expect Akpabios children not to have Igbo name or you expect Peter obis children not to have Efik name?

Tribalists and their incurable inferiority complex don spoil celebration thread - Nairaland is not real life, you better go and sort out your miserable lives instead of amaka-ing on top the traditional names of well focused people attaining personal success that has nothing to with your tribes and tribal sentiments grin

Does the presence of a shared word across languages mean the bigger language owns the word? Enu means "up" in Igbo right? It also means "up" in Bini. Does that automatically confer enu as an Igbo word?
