9Pluto:
The only place the word acculturation/enculturated ever appeared and existed is in ijaw doctored media and literature. So much it has become a figment of gullible people's imagination.

There was no such record in history because it never existed. The reason why the Jaja dynasty won the Supreme Court judgment, is exactly because of this same reason. All their accounts of history is doctored.

Eke40seven:
The question, where was Ijaw/Ijo/Ejo mentioned in all this?

You are arguing about Okoloma and Obane, in the same book.

Alabo7978:
Engenni is made up of five major clans known as Enuedua (Joinkrama), Ogua, Ejiro—Ede, Ejiro-Ekunu, and Ogbogolo Clans. The former are your edoid. Ogbogolo isn't.

I want to emphasize on ogbogolo because that language is easily a mixture of Nembe and ogbia.
Ogbogolo is made up of Egbama, Opu-Ogbogolo, and Kala-Ogbogolo.
Ogbogolo itself speaks an ogbia-like language and it isn't far from Nembe because the engenni river is connected to the tailor and kolo creek which ARE ROUTES TO NEMBE AND OGBIA.
In Nembe in particular, we have opu Nembe too.
Opu means big, kala means small.
You are busy shouting liar, ode.
Give me speed boat, I will transport you to all the rivers, creeks and settlements because I know them Wella.
You that is shouting liar, Dem put you for canoe to navigate the same people you're claiming you know, you will go missing.

Ekealterego:
Don't try to be clever here.

Most languages in West Africa, except for Northern tribes like Hausa are all Niger Congo. Even Twi in Ghana is Niger Congo.

Ijoh as a language sticks out like a sore thumb. Ijoh is the only different language group in that area. It is more related to Kru in far away Senegal and Sierra-Leone.

More narrowly, Igbo, Yoruba, Edo, Epie and Engenni, Urhobo, Isoko, Akoko are all Volta-Niger people.

Ijoh is different from ALL these languages.

Igboid see this Guy's cunning explainatiin of his version of Niger-Congo. He doesn't know his language is closer to Kru in Sierra-leone than it is to any language in the Niger Delta.

Omanambala:
This is the last time I will reply you on this topic , because it's obvious you are unteachable.

Agulu existed because Eri settled there , whence it became Agulu Eri , due to his influence. There are other Agulu towns like the place where former Anambra state governor, Peter Obi hails from , and Agulu-uzo-Igbo , Victor Umeh's home town. Agulu is not a name of a person. You are dense , oga.

Ifeukwuanim migrated down the Omanbala plain and never made it to Agukwu Nri.

Again , Agulu is not a name of Eri's offspring.

Igboid:
Liar.
Engenni has only one language. Engenni language which is Edoid.

Ekealterego:
What does clan mean? The Oguan nation is bigger than a "clan". It is an insult.

Epie-Atissa ethnic nationality deserves respect.

IDENNAA:
You made an ignorant statement and I corrected you and generously informed you , then you turned around to lecture me about what you know nothing about. Where do you get off ?

MENRI or Ifeukwuanim is the recognized first son of Eri. When you said Nri you are referring to descendants and and whole contingent of Eri-Ifeukwuanim , found in numerous Anambra communities , and Enuani of Delta state. Nri is not a name of a person , just like Ijaw.

I will advice you to focus on learning Ijaw origin, for a start. I have a rich and noble history and I know the story of my people.

IDENNAA:
Eri is not the progenitor of the Igbo race , but merely the leader of a migration that gave rise to Nri people. Nri people are chiefly found in Anambra and Anioma/Enuani. I am a decent of Oji Okodu , an Nri man who settled at a place called Abatete and his descendants spread to Umuoji and Umudim -Ideke /Nkpor. Therefore your comparisons of Eri to Ijaw is grossly flawed because whilst Eri is not the name of an ethnic group Ijaw is.

Secondly, Bonny , Kalabari , Okrika , Brass and the rest has no tradition nor legend that trace their origin to Ijaw, except the ones manufactured by you people.

IDENNAA:
Are all of you from the same mother or what , because you all sound alike. For instance, you have no regard for historical research carried out by neutral bodies without ulterior intentions.

Your counters are usually monosyllabic , empty, and filled with frustrated responses like "go and claim they in physical. " Historical research has been cited numerous times on this topic and not once was Ijaw ever mentioned at Bonny , but here you are talking about exposing people. Are you drunk or what ?

Captain8:
Eppies are Ijaws.... They are even more Ijaw than I do.... So your pain and frustration end only on Nairaland......

Bye bye

Ekealterego:
I did not write this article, Epie's foremost journalist did. He is the public relations officer did. Mr. Etete

Captain8:
it's ignorant that made you put the names of the chiefs.......

if not ignorant you won't have put the names....
Sorry...Eppies are Ijaws as those names are concerned.....
Because all the chiefs you mentioned cannot answer Ijaw names if they are not Ijaws.....

You made a mistake of putting down the names, it makes your thread look joke......

You said e
Eppies are not Ijaws but you gave them Ijaw names........ isn't this wonderful? Our enemies have confused......

Ekealterego:
I'm not the one who generalised. The history books with eye witness accounts generalised it.

However, Ogbia ethnic nationality and Oguan Ethnic nationality was not mentioned as Pirates only Ijoh ethnic nationality were described as canoe dwelling wild, uncivilized pirates.

Ekealterego:
Throughout the written history from the 1600s to1800s and early 1900s, the Ijohs were described as wild, uncivilized and quarrelsome pirates.
Then out of no where, the canoe dwelling, landless people now appeared as kings in Bonny.

Putindbutt:
All of a sudden, a newspaper article ( Editorial piece) of 1925 is now tenable while other contrary documents written during the same period is hastily dismissed by you guys. Imagine the hypocrisy.

There was no where in the original letter Azikiwe referred to Opobo as ibo.

In the same article, Zik alluded to the fact that " The ibos themselves are a war-like tribe rating from the sixteen century but after civil war in Benin they migrated and settled on the east side of the river Niger"

I hope you would also agree with Zik that ibos were once under Benin kingdom.

EzeCanada:
Your assertion looks incoherent and does not make any sense to me. You should have started by asking me what the handle "EzeCanada"represents.

That's my identity. My name is Eze and I am resident in Canada. What does that make me?

Now let's refocus on the fraudulent geographical expressions your people always put forward

Alabo7978:
lol, they keep cumming hard whenever they see their masters from the ijo Ethnic nation.
they don't even know Opobo (Opubo) was renamed after King Opubo of Bonny.

I ask them again, why was there an enculturating ritual where igbos are renamed and enculturated into the ijo tribes by a master who bought them when they claim igbos owned Bonny they went mute.

for over 24 hours, I didn't see any quoting on the question, I felt the thread has been closed.
I went to check and saw the page had flown from 40something to 60 something.

those drug dealers avoided me covid (omicron) variant.
damn!

sinteiking:
Perhaps the only thing shady and fraudulent is your existence.

Take a look at your name EzeCanada.

An Igbo King in Canada?.

Isn't this fraudulent and shady?

sinteiking:
How can they say anything when they haven't even stepped a foot on Opobo or Bonny.

The king of Opobo has affirmed his Ijawness but yet this online wailers keeps masturbating on Opobians ethnicity

Alabo7978:
lol, confusion in the camp of drug dealing land grabbers.
do you know how many Eze'ndigbo they have all over Nigeria?
eze'ndigbo Lagos, Eze'ndigbo ogun, Eze'ndigbo Ondo.
The igbos are known travelers, entering everywhere uninvited.
they wanted to do that at cross river (Eze'ndigbo of Cross river) the cross river traditional rulers agressively halted it.
if care is not taken, 9pluto, Ekealterego, Igboid, Bkayy, SlayerForever of the future in 400 years time will claim the igbos owned those states.

igbos who don't have affinity to water, who dread the swamp and mangroves now suddenly claiming to be Water people.
Father lord!
Igbos who were slaves in Bonny just as pepple and crowther said.
igbos who were given freedom by Asimini because they showed they aided him in war.

funny enough, land grabbing clowns never want to talk about the ijoh enculturating ritual. (I will write a thread about THE ENCULTURATING RITUAL) where certain rites and spiritual practices are carried out before the spirits to change a person's ancestral identity.
if ijohs weren't the land lord, why were igbos enculturated
Ekealterego, 9pluto etc answer.

why were there enculturating rituals performed on Igbo slaves??
infact the igbos should stop seeing Jaja as Igbo anymore, he swore before the spirits, cleansed his blood, renounce his ancestry and tribe, even his name to be JUBO JUBOGHA.
that alone is big prove that the ijos were the owners, lord and master of the Igbos, and bonny.


captain8 Putindbutt ditaridesciple2
how about we think of names to rename our slaves?

I earlier renamed Ekealterego OTONYE DOMOKUMA
9pluto, SlayerForever Igboid biafrarep bkayy needs to be renamed ASAP.
we need to enculturate them like our ancestors did.

Captain8:
good talks... benawei, you made a good suggestion....

I got that your name.... I shall make thread of it where after we renamed all our slaves....

We gave them jubo jubogha..
We gave them biafra...
Now you gave one a name....

I here by gave slayerforever (omoni tobo) meaning slave child.....

Alabo7978:
funny enough you don't even know that the yorubas see us as brothers.
in their own oral tradition, ijo who is to them as ujo was the first son to oduduwa who both migrated from the Nile basin around Egypt.
ijo had a personal juju named Adum, the yorubas knew that juju as adumu.

interestingly Adum deity was the first deity in Bonny kingdom and Alagbiriye also served as it's priests.
if the founders of Bonny didn't migrate from kolokuma (same with calabari) why do they share the same language?
why did the bonnys worship Adum?

anyways, I'm not making a point because it'll fall on deaf ears.
soon I will seize to respond to you clowns.
I will create time and write a well detailed thread, it's just time.
it is in ijaw tradition to enculturate a slave bought, Jaja was also enculturated to Jubo jubogha,
Asimini made some Igbo slaves free men after helping him in battle, now if you claim igbos owned Bonny, why were the igbos enculturated?
why was okwarazurumba renamed Jubo jubogha?

see major clowns, your lies are like leaking nylon, water keeps pouring out.
the igbos are known to move about for business and establish, reason there is atleast one igbo man in every country in the world.
the Bonny people allowed you settle, GAVE YOU THEIR NAMES, FREED YOU FROM SLAVERY, now you want to be a land grabber.
e no go better for una.

just because you igbos are a nuisance everywhere who like to make noise in everything you do, you brought your noise to spread lies just because the ijo man is not a noise maker.
no wahala.
because bonneians freed you.
I will make out time to expose the lies. seriously I didn't know this is what has been going on in nairaland.
it is a pity.

9Pluto:
But you have been posturing as ijaw here. Did you mistakenly forget your tribe? I can remind you, you know.

Ekealterego:
Bruv, that's Roger Blench's book written from year 2010-2020.

Go and dig up history books, just like we did.

Our oldest snippet was 1906 and we even used it very sparringly to make another point.... Go deeper in 200 years like we have done.

Igboid:
If Yorubas were as senseless and non strategic like Igbo Leaders starting from Zik to modern day Governors, the Ijaws would have since claimed the entire ONDO sea coasts.

But Yorubas made sure to keep them in check.

They were also checkmated in Lagos seas coasts too.
It's sad to admit, but Yorubas always had more strategic and foresighted Politicians than we do in Igboland.
The average Igbo Politician doesn't think beyond stockpiling funds from his state or constituency to go live in USA, UK or Canada.
Important group survival issues is non of their business.

It's a pity, this is what we have to correct.

ThickSharon123:
Ijaw is a fraud. They've also given you people facts that you were in the sea, lived in the sea. So now, tell me, how would Igbo be at the fringes...Oh, sorry, you mean at the coast? And you guys were at the sea. That's plausible.

You guys never owned land. Opobo and Bonny are meant to dislike you people the minute they know what Boro did to their kind, perhaps there was a time you sneakily asked for reconciliation and began to cleanse their language from them.

But the Chi of all Igbos are strong. They stuck to their language till the end of time, and you Ijaws aren't getting it.

ThickSharon123:
I believe Ijaws are grabbing this or taking advantage of Opobo and Bonny because they desire to take the full power of the coast. I assure you if there was no crude oil or people didn't use the sea to trade, you'll see Ijaw calling them Igbo people.

They want to take over all of the coast from Lagos to Opobo, perhaps they'll move to Akwa Ibom soon, and begin to take a weak part of their family to take advantage on and begin to tell them stories from hell that they are Ijaw and Ibibio stole their land from them. .

We all know, but the funny part of it all is, if you have all the coastal waters what do you do with it, except you want to be collecting surcharge from we at the hinterland. Why? It doesn't make sense. I believe that's Ijaws main motive. They know Igbos are main trading people, so this is business and Opobo and Bonny are hot spots.

Lagos and Ondo had luck that they didn't bring Ijaws in, in their lands in large number or they weren't close to them, if not Yoruba's would have been having this stress.
