See List Of Native Igbo Tribes Outside The South East. by Samyj247: 3:01pm On Jul 25, 2022 |
SEE LIST OF NATIVE IGBO TRIBES FROM STATES OUTSIDE THE SOUTH EAST These are list of Igbos indigenous to states outside the present so called South East of Nigeria. See below: RIVERS STATE 1) Egbema 2) Ecthe 3) Omuma 4) Ndoni 5) Ikwerre 6) Ekpeye 7) Obigbo Opobo 9) Ogba EDO STATE 10) Igbanke/Igboakiri In fact most people do not even know that Arch Bishop Benson Idahosa and his wife are Igbo from Igbanke in Uhuonde Local Government area of EDO state that was formerly in Orhionwon LGA . The mother of the late Samuel Odaigbovo Ogbemudia is Igbanke! Most indigenes of this town just like Ika people bear hybrid names that most often could just jolly well pass as EDO because of their names like Nduka Irabor, Jim Ovia, Omorogie Nwawanne, Collins Edumaruse etc DELTA STATE 11). Ika 12) Ndokwa 13) Ukwuani 14) Aniocha 15) Oshimili BAYELSA STATE 16) Osekwenike, Abuetor and Eke Okpokri villages, all in Sagbama area of bayelsa, are all Igbo of Ukwuani stock, and as such, are of the Anioma igbo clan of the Igbo ethnic group in BAYELSA CROSS RIVER STATE 17) ISOBO , even liyl imoke former CR governor and wife are igbos from ABI LGA – CROSS RIVER AKWA IBOM STATE 18) Ikot Udo Ika in Ika Local Government area of Akwa Ibom is an Igbo community. BENUE STATE 19)The Igbos in Benue State particularly those in Ado, Oju, Obi and Okpoku LGAs of the state were in existence before the advent of Christian religion in Nigeria. The Igbo found in Benue are: Umuezeokoha, Umuezeoka, Oriuzor, Umuoghara, Amaekka and Amaezekwe all in Ezza communities, Izzi, Ezzamgbo and Effium, these are the people who would have been in present-day Ebonyi State but due to the fact that the Nigerian government then carved them into Benue in order to suppress the population of the East. Apart from the Ezza-speaking clan, particularly the people of Umuezeokoha that has over 300 villages, if you are to calculate the number of Igbo-speaking villages in Benue State, outside Umuezeokaoha, you would be talking altogether about over 600 villages. Three of the biggest markets in Benue are all in the Igbo- speaking part. The markets are Inikiri Ichari, Iddah, Iduokpe. There are also some Igbo speaking Idoma towns in Benue State. KOGI STATE 20) THE indigenouse Igbo-speaking communities in Kogi state especially in Ibaji and Igalamela/Odolu LGAs are Eke Avurugo community,such as Nwajala, Umuoye, Ubulie-Umuez, ozara, and umuoye and many more. NOTE The current Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, also told us that his kingdom was initially conquered by the Igbo (PLEASE KINDLY NOTE THAT HE WAS NOT REFERRING TO THE UGBO OF ONDO STATE)until they were rescued by Moremi and he also spoke of an aboriginal Igbo community that still exist in ILE Ife to this day. The Ugbo people of Ondo State have the same Obatala linkage with the Aborigines of Ile Ife. Note: there are several Igbo towns in present-day Igboland that are called Ugbo. For instance, you have Ugbodu in Delta State, and Ugbo in Enugu State, just to mention a few. #Igbohistoryandculturetv 38 Likes 3 Shares

The Okrika people are known by the native name Wakirike. Wakirike in Igbo language means ‘child of scales’. In other words, fish people or good swimmers. Okrika is an island south of Ikwere and Obulom lands (Port Harcourt) and is home to fishermen and swimmers. 20 Likes

I wanted to take this seriously until I saw that Liyel Imoke and his wife are Igbos from Abi Local Government Area of Cross River State. That's not correct. For the record, the Abi people in Cross River are not Igbos. Mrs Obioma Imoke, wife of the former governor of Cross River State is from Enugu but became an indigene of the state by marriage. Get your facts right. 9 Likes 1 Share |

Samyj247:check your number 4 and number 7. Remove Ndoki from that Number. Obigbo LGA has 2 clans NDOKI AND ASA. Ndoki is almost the biggest because they are from the boundary between Ogoni and Akwa-ibom down to the Asa axis of Obeama... For Akwa-ibom. Ohaobu ( town after Azumimi ) is an Igbo town. Infact, they don't see themselves as Akwa-ibom Indigenes. 15 Likes 3 Shares |

igboland/territories has the highest oil deposit of more than 60% of the dungeon's total oil deposits and over 80% of the dungeon's gas deposits. It's annoying hearing some Igbos using the narratives of the British/fulani by reffering to Niger Delta as where the majority of their dungeon's oil is found. That dungeon must go down. 4 Likes |

Samyj247: Please could you do a correction. It is very important to our "Ethnic nationality" . Etchie and Omuma are the same Ochie clan. The Ochie clan have four LGAs in Imo and Rivers. Two in Rivers (Etchie and Omuma) and two in Imo State (Ngor Okpala and Owerri North). We are part of the ancient Ochie clan of the Southern Igbo group. I knoiw you do not have evil intention but we are very concerned as some folks are trying to cause division within our clan. There is a grand design to further dismember Etchie with the current agitation by misguided individuals led by a traditional ruler (Uthman Dan Fodio ensemble) once disgraced by Governor Wike to form Omuma Ethnic nationality.
