In the Americas, we have Afro festivals, Caribbean festivals, and Asian festivals. Nobody comes in the way of the other. The cities provide security during these occasions. People from other groups are invited to participate and enjoy with those celebrating. Such festivals are something to look forward to cause it's entertaining, revealing and uniting. However, back home, Nigerians can't even tolerate other Nigerians. Shame.

Duncan Mighty has never ever in his life claim to be Igbo. He speaks Igbo fluently because he grew up in Igbo land. His mother is Igbo.
Meanwhile anyone whose mother is Igbo can claim Igbo heritage. Don't listen to Uche Okwukwu. He is beside his mind.

Why do you Nairaland Igbos respond to thugs and ineffeminates on Nairaland in the name of defending the Ancient tribe? Just stop it.

Have you ever heard of Ikwere in any language translator in the world? Igbos don't need Ikwere, it's Ikweres that needs Igbos. Please stop responding to nonentities.

The funniest thing about THIS THREAD is that more Yorubas have commented and pilled on bitterness and bile against Igbo over a land that is more Igbo than Lagos can ever be Yoruba.

See their bitterness and anger over GRV - a LAGOSIAN that has an Igbo mother, whom they RIGGED out of his worthy election.
Lagos is owned by EGUNS, AWORIS and other NON-YORUBA groups going by the the same logic of Ikwerre not being Igbo as Yoruba keep creating fake monikers to promote here.

THANK YOU for pointing out their duplicity.

PH will stop being Igboland the very day that Lagos also stops being Yorubaland.

Tell him to try hosting your ohanaeze meeting in his father’s compound in Elele as a proof of his Igbo identity.

I keep telling Igbo people that ceding land "in exchange for peace" does not work. lol

Yoruba BRUTALLY suppressed the real owners of Lagos - non-Yoruba groups, and have been foisting Yorubas from even outside of Lagos as governors for decades now.

That is why any Igbo exchanging words with Yoruba over the ownership of PH and even rivers state should think twice and know that he is wasting the energy he needs to defend Igboland when the time comes.

Ceding lands never brings peace and understanding. It simply leads to ceding more lands in exchange for a peace that groups like the Yoruba would never allow in the East.

One day sef Yorubas in cahoots with other enemies will start saying that Enugu is not Igboland.

That is why I say that any Igbo calling for expelling of Ikwerre from mother Igbo body is seriously mistaken.

Wike is one man, and people like him always ends in shame.

What Wike is doing is not new and it has a name: Self preservation. He killed his own people and now wants to be protected. That's all.

No, Igbo have not "gone past this stage".
I thank God for Nnamdi Kanu on this issue.
if not for Kanu, some of you Igbo would even cede parts of Anambra and even Ebonyi.
Your enemies use "shame and shout" to shout you out of land given to you by God.
Most of the people sef shouting Ikwerre dis and dat are just people frightened about Igbo secession from Nigeria (ie unity beggars of all shades and stripes). They use divide and conquer as key strategy.
As long as there are people like us, PH will FOREVER be Igboland.
If PH is not Igboland, then Lagos is NOT Yorubaland. QED.

Hunt down Isiguzoro like an antelope and save yourselves this embarrassment. That cretin should be loading buses at Aba Park, and not representing the great Igbos with millions of intellectuals.

Just read his press releases and you will have a good laugh, if not dumbfounded at his level of bumbling illiteracy. grin

Ikwerre just celebrated their Ikwerre day in the UK not long ago so nothing wrong in my opinion if Igbo people that reside in Portharcourt celebrate their culture in Portharcourt but you cross the line when your National leadership go to another person’s land to honour their ‘fallen heroes’ as they claimed and also calling the place ’Igbo land’.

You Igbos are averse to peaceful environment but it is important that you constrain your toxic attitude and avoidable problems within your Igbo land. You can not force anyone to be be Igbo and you must learn to respect your hosts.

If any place is Igboland let the indigenes say so not some miserable clo.wns from Ezza, Umuahia, Awka etc pointing at another man’s land as Igboland.
First of all, I'm yoruba not Igbo. Secondly, Fulanis can celebrate their fallen heroes in Kwara, is kwara a fulani state?, same with Edo, yorubas can celebrate their fallen heroes there and nothing will happen, is edo in the SS OR SW?

so what's the fuss all about?

*PORT HARCOURT IS IKWERRE LAND*
...𝑪𝑷 𝑾𝒂𝒓𝒏𝒔 𝑶𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒆𝒛𝒆 𝑵𝒅𝒊𝒈𝒃𝒐

The meeting between Rivers State Commissioner of Police, Dr. Polycap Emeka Nwonyi, members of Iwhuruohna People's Association (IPA) and Ohaneze Ndigbo as a result of the petition written by IPA to the Inspector-General of Police, copied to the CP and other security agencies, took place yesterday in his office. During the meeting, the delegation of IPA led by the President, High Chief Monday Wehere and Dr. William Wodi stated categorically that Ikwerre people are not Igbos, and that there is no “Igbo-speaking” part of Ikwerre land as claimed by the Ohaneze Ndigbo.

They maintained that Igbos have five state capitals and numerous other cities where the so-called “Igbo Day” can be used to honour their fallen heroes but their choice of Port Harcourt is aimed at causing the breakdown of law and order.

They also reminded the CP that the two factional leaderships are proposing the celebration at undisclosed venues in PH. The delegation of IPA pointed out that there is the likelihood that their undisclosed venues may clash with the venue for the "Ikwerre Martyrs' Day" already scheduled for September 29th, 2023.

They concluded by saying that one of the reasons they are against them calling Ikwerre people Igbos and that Rivers State is not part of Igbo states is to stop them from extending their sit-at-home order to Rivers State.

Responding to their submission, the leader of Igbo Community in Rivers State, Barr. Emmanuel Ukala, who is also the Vice Chairman of Nigeria Bar Association (NBA), Port Harcourt Branch, denied ever fixing Igbo Day Celebration in Port Harcourt.

He maintained that the celebration was fixed at Enugu and also disowned the statements credited to Okechukwu Isiguzoro, Chidi Ibe and Chief Uchenna Okokoba respectively. He also said that they are impostors and cannot speak for Igbo people.

At this point, members of IPA quickly presented the press release of both factions and affirmed that the said venue earlier scheduled to hold in Port Harcourt was shifted to Enugu because of the pressure of IPA on them.

After listening to both sides, the Rivers State Commissioner of Police, Dr. Emeka Polycap Nwonyi advised members of Ohaneze Ndigbo to honour their heroes and do their celebration in their states and leave Port Harcourt if Ikwerre people decides not to join, saying that Port Harcourt is Ikwerre land and whoever that buys land here will not carry it to his or her hometown.

The case ended in favour of IPA, therefore, the Igbo Day Celebration is no longer holding in Port Harcourt.
