Shut up..


Entire Abakiliki are totally different from ndigbo...Wawa is even an understatement.

Ebonyi was once under TIV rule.


Today as I write Afikpo on Ebonyi has over 85 percent of her population Muslims with the largest mosque ever known.

before I comment let me correct you,1 Abakaliki is named after a military zone,the Wawa subgroups are the indigenous inhabitants,you are right Abakaliki are different from Igbos, because there is no Igbo subgroup named Abakaliki but Wawas be them in Ebonyi North or Enugu North are Igbos,2 am from Isu,Onicha LGA,all my life I have never seen an Afikpo Muslim,my best childhood friend is from Uwana,on your claim about Afikpo Muslims it's quite exaggerated,now how was Ebonyi under Tiv rule? Please specify the year and who ruled. Danke

You’re highly deluded. Interpret that thing in English because I don’t understand shit and even my Igbo friend didn’t even understand it. Ika people are not Igbo.

any Ika person who does not understand what I said is truly not an Ika person,Ika Ejighi Anu Mgbada egwu egwu,once again Ika bu nde oma,I have many Umenede friends infact the first I ate mgbada meat was when I visited our in-law to be,when they offered the meat I was skeptic cause I don't eat meat anyhow,so I asked the girl simply said mgbada meat,bro please tell that you Afonja friend claiming Ika to go and hug transformer

RIVERS1stson:
Was the assessment based on gala hawking or okada riding, because these are the only 2 areas Ebonyi people have absolute advantage and that's all they do all over Nigeria. They don't go to school nor own big businesses. So how did ebonyi came from being the 4th with the poorest people to this your fake unrealistic stats?

Abakaliki/Wawa supgroups are not the only subgroups in Ebonyi/Enugu respectively,now if they like Hawking gala or driving (the later Is not a bad business though) that is their business,now what I want from you is stop generalizing it,try and be specific,secondly as an Ebonyi person I believe in hard work,they work hard to sell their goods so try and be positive bro

Tuscanao97:
fake stats . this does not translate to reality. Ebonyi state is the most backward state with too many poor and illiterate people .

you really need a brain transplant

Too much make ups na em be the beauty?

ipodstinks:
Does ebonyi looks like America that I can visit?


Deny yourself that ebonyi is not poor.

poor based on paper statistics,I heard the whole IGR of Osun is higher than Ebonyi,now I know you are some where from that dumpsite called Osun,kindly share the pictures of your location let me share mine,note Ebonyi is not America but she is a beauty among the uglies, including the IDP's place you called state.

Ika is not Igbo. Don’t be ignorant of that. By ethnic group, you’re talking of people’s cultural language, belief, norm ethics etc.

Interpret this “yem ekinpe yi” in Igbo
“Ofungbon” “osolobua emeyeken” and other expressions. If you’re talking about some words that found their ways into Ika and other Anioma ethnic linguistics, you should go learn the history of English.

Little history of English language
It is divided into 3 distinct era

1st Era had lot of declensions (this was a period that the Angles, Saxons and Jute migrated to the present day England in about 400-450 AD). This particular English language is not intelligible to the present day speakers)

2nd Era had a lot of modifications that led to less declensions in their vocabulary. They imported a lot of words from Latin, Norse, Italian etc.

3rd Era had total loss of declensions in English vocabulary. We are in the third era known as the modern or contemporary era.

Reason for the analogy: we can’t say that because some English words have their root in German, Norse, Italian etc, English is Italian, Germany or any other language. The same is applicable to a linguistic environment, of which Ika is one.

Check how many ethnicities in England, you’d be amazed to see midland there. Queen’s English or BBC is a variety distinct from midlands and others. And mind you, language, belief system and even dressing are great yardstick when describing ethnicity.

lol you are clearly dillusion,now Igbo is a very complex language,I don't have to understand an Igbo subgroup dialects before I know it's Igbo,Ika is an Igbo subgroup, Cultural, Linguistically and Traditionally they are Igbo,Nde Ika bu nde oma!

jayworld15:
You got it wrong. Anioma was coined when Delta State senatorial district started agitating for their state creation. In Anioma alone, there are from 8-11 ethnic groups including Ika, Olukumi, Bini, even Igbo. Get your fact right before posting.

Ika is Igbo,don't be ignorant

ipodstinks:
Says an OSU from poverty striken ebonyi

am quoting you because you mentioned poverty and Ebonyi together,let me ask you have you visited Ebonyi or are you suffering from ignorance?

Only an Eastern woman can have this nerve

Abouwaza:
Wow
Every sane persons should know by now that Buhari and Buratai have an hidden agenda
We all know how Buhari condemned maltreatment of BH in the past and he even Pampers them now that he's in power

This good man is tired of playing chess with the lives of the same people he swore to protect
He speaks out and they attack him just like Lance Corporal Martins
All sponsors of BH,Bandits,Herdsmen shall die a painful death by God's grace
MANNADEADMEAT PLEASE SAY AMEN

makes me remember"a fight against Boko Haram is a fight against the North" I mean how can a man who said such a thing defeat BH in 3 months,last last APC na Yahoo yahoo

Terrorists deserve nothing but death...not Repentance

Labanese have a good number of Judio/Christians

This shit is all over Beruit and neighbouring cities,my heart is with them

Gabkosh:
Ok Israelite, go and tell them the rubbish you are spitting here.


You people are just shameless.

don't be silly,it's just a minor fact unless you hate hearing the truth,I see no reason for you to be pained.

MelesZenawi:
Are you okay?

am sure the qestion is for yourself

Since I saw Umenede there I guess they are Ika people carved into Edo state

Gabkosh:
Same way DNA has confirmed you to come from Israel.

Igbo's have Euroasia DNA,if you are Igbo go for DNA test and verify,now back to you Hebrews took the Lands belonging to Palistine the present day Isreal is more diverse than you can imagine,you can't really get a fair DNA test by comparing Igbo and Hebrews now,the DNA of both have been altered

Parisian:
You have lots of Germans, Spanish, British, African Americans etc who have been in America from anywhere between 400 - 700 years yet these people know their history.

They know from whence they came. Their culture, language, traditions may have been completely eroded but they still know and can trace the origin of their ancestors.

This is the same with the ikwerres. You can't say "oh they have a similar culture and language to the igbos and hence must be igbos".... that is a primitive way of reasoning.

What matters and will always matter is where the ikwerres migrated from. If they migrated from the Bini kingdom like they say then they are rightly descendants of the Binis.

It is foolish to think you can know more about a people than the people themselves.

However, i think what can finally lay this issue to rest is an ancestry DNA test but even at that the igbos will say the test has been compromised by igbo haters that is if the test results show that the ikwerres are Binis by extension.

what a foolish statement

Tribes or Ethnic groups?

JidennaJason:
Actually, you're the one being stupid here...

Is he not a human being?

not this politicians bro, we all have to tell ourselves the truth, anyway you are obviously a Yoruba,keep deceiving yourself

JidennaJason:
Great news, atleast this would make him reflect deeply about life and probably make him do the right thing as a governor.

"Who wahala nakked follow nor dey use English pray"


Now, I can confidently shake hands with my governor.


God bless Delta State.

reflect deeply?
haaha stop being stupid

Sorry for bringing Ethnicity into this but you must be a Yoruba man,take a look at the long nonsense you wrote anyway keep deceiving yourself with a Country that can not feed her citizens for a day take more two weeks being a gaint or a Country whose military were massacared by terrorists few days back,i think Yoruba skull was made to be shallow or rather it was when Oduduwa was fallen from the sky either way you guys don't think straight
