Background: This study was aimed at comparing the Paul‟s Index across the Ikwerre, Bini and Igbo ethnic groups of Southern Nigeria. The study was an observational, analytical and cross-sectional design with volunteers‟ age ranging from 18-60 years. For the purpose of this study, an individual was considered to be a Nigerian of a particular ethnic group if the parents and four grandparents were of the same ethnic group. Materials and Methods: Cluster sampling method was used for the study. The selection and collection of required parameters relied on the informed consent of volunteer subjects. This was done by giving them a copy of the informed consent letter which was signed and dated. A total of 1,200 subjects (Bini 400, Ikwerre 400 and Ibos 400) subjects were recruited for the study. The fingerprints were obtained using print scanner (Hp G3110 Photo scanner). Results and Discussion: The value of PI in the males across the three ethnic groups showed that the Ikwerre people had an index value of 117 bilaterally; the Bini people had 121 on the left and 122 on the right hand; while the Ibos had 121 bilaterally. The value of PI in the females across the three ethnic groups showed that the Ikwerre people had an index value of 117 on the left and 116 on the right hand, the Bini people had 118 bilaterally; while the Ibos had 122 on the left hand and 121 on the right hand. The value of PI in the total population across the three ethnic groups showed that the Ikwerre people had an index value of 117 bilaterally; the Bini people had 120 bilaterally; while the Ibos had 122 on the left hand and 121 on the right hand.
Conclusion: The result of this study concludes that the Ikwerre people are likely from the Bini stock as suggested by oral history as depicted by the proximity in the Paul‟s Index value (Ikwerre 117, Bini 120) between the Ikwerre and Bini people. Keywords: Ikwerre, Bini, Ibo, Paul‟s Index, Nigeria.

And now, the binis are more related to the Igbos

Your divide and rule tactics suffered a fractured spine this year

Wow

So, Wike was right when he said he's Bini not Ibo. I hope the Ibos leave dem alone and stop forcing themselves on people who have nothing to do with them. Ibos should stop disgracing themselves up and down all over Nigeria. It is pathetic and weak.

Fulani herdsmen don't know if you are ikwere or igbo when killing starts in the north. Foolish write up

Both igbos and binis are the same blood of igodomigodo so nothing new here make una leave ikwerre alone.

I personally challenge you that you are not Ikwerre. And if you from Ikwerre you are like of the Arrun like we call them (Aros) stock of either Isiokpo, Aluu or Elele. Refute this.
The Aruns came to Ikwerre land and with the fall of the long juju in the early 20th century some of them had no home to return to. The communities they settled absorbed them although still treat them as outcast till date. These are the classes of Ikwerres who come online that they are Ikwerres and that Ikwerres are igbos.

Ikwerres don't talk with this much hate, you're from Abia stop lying.

Edos political alliance with Ibos will end in tears. Okoros are greedy and the Edos will find out the hard way.

Stop peddling this old and worn out lies.

There is no place we do not have the Aros in both the South South and South East Ethnicities.


Using that criteria to distinguish who is a real Ikwerre and non diali is a false logic.

Go get a job you bigot!

The ONLY time Ibos voted for a Yoruba was when the choice was between two Yorubas (Obj vs Falae).

You voted Shagari over Awolowo
You voted Tofa over Abiola
And of course you voted MASSIVELY against Tinubu.

You're greedy. The Edos will find out the hard way. And they'll turn against you with so much venom. Mark this down.

Yes, Lagos is the 5th richest economy in Africa. Edo is a village.

Get ready for more disappointment Hakeem
