Nwanne you know you are too informed with details. But what I meant is that a mixture of Awka, Onitsha, Ogbaru, Idemmili are the combination of what made up the dialect you hear across Igbo land-- It is called Anambra dialect. It is not owned by one particular town. Listen to all the Igbo wrappers, they all use Anambra dialect. My town Uga speaks more of Igbo Izugbe, and I don't speak it in the public except am with my kindreds in the villa.

pazienza:
What Onitsha and Awka indigenes speak is not what is called Anambra dialect, and certainly not what Nwodo speaks.
Same is applicable to Ogbaru dialect. Many of my Enugu and Imo friends don't understand things Osita Osadebey say in his songs. Ogbaru can be nasalized. They also use "Wa" for they.
Onitsha say " raa Mmili" for "nuo Mmili" and uses "Je ga" for "jee".
Those are certainly not what other Igbos know as "Anambra dialect".

What Igbos know as Anambra dialect is what is spoken in mainly Idemili/Dunukofia/Oyi/Anaocha/Njikoka.
Listen to Bob Emmanuel udokwu( Ogidi Idemili) ,.Amaechi Muonagor (Obosi Idemili) or Pete Edochie (Nteje Oyi) speak in Nigerian movies. And see what Anambra dialect sounds like.
It's very light, uses "fa" for they, uses 'i"( pronounced as "yi" for "gi". Hardly uses "Sh" sound.

It's definitely not Awka /Nnewi /Aguata /Orumba etc dialects. Those dialects can be heavy and some like Ekwulobia and Umunze are highly nasalized as well.

LOL..my concern is for you to read my message which was well delivered and you read. That is OK for me. Useless low class bitch

InyinyaAgbaOku:
I didn't reply him either, even though, he mentioned me several times

Enugu is the capital of WAWA people. A worthless and useless town that cannot stand for anything except poor people and backwardness. Stop deceiving yourself. Stupid people

odogwu125:
Enugu is the capital of igboland - OUK 2018. You must go there for meeting and your schools must read igbo textbooks written imo/abia igbo izugbe.

[/s]

Listen to Zoro an Enugu indigene but he uses Anambra dialect to flow in his Igbo wrappes. LOL

Shut up your wawa mouth, I do not need a validation from a 3rd class Igbo from Enugu state. Everyone knows that Anambra dialect is the sweetest of all Igbo dialects, no wonder every Igbo everywhere want to speak it.

odogwu125:
Anmbra dialect is the common informal dialect. We have acknowledged it. Its nothing to chestbeat about

IGBOSON, with all due respect, I never started anything here. The guy that started this is odogwu123 and he is from Enugu state same as Nyinyaagbaoku. All they do here everyday is attacking Anambra as if Anambra is the cause of their backwardness and worthlessness.

Xander85:
The guy is a fuc/king nuisance! Once the thread is gaining traction...with cerebral discussions and nice pics, this fool gets pained and immediately starts a 'fight' with one of his numerous monikers or partners in crime! This can go on for about two or three pages, and the aim is to derail the thread! If he/they had his/their way, this thread would have been long dead and buried!

GBAM

OMANBALA1:
Nobody have conversation in that stupidd Igbo Izugbe manufactured from Imo and Abia Igbo. The Only time its used is during Igbo news segment, no more. Anambra people have rejected it by conducting other programs in Anambra Igbo on ABS and with time Ndi Anambra will create our own Igbo using Onicha -Idenmili axis Igbo. Enough with that crappy Imo /Abia Igbo.

Yes I am from Uga but what we call Anambra dialect is Onitsha/Awka/Idemmili/Ogbaru etc, these areas speaks clean clear and smooth Igbo language.

Even the first Igbo Bible was written in Onitsha dialect. Are you aware?

pazienza:
It's a known fact that the Idemili/Dunukofia/Njikoka/Oyi/Anaocha cluster you call "Anambra dialect is without nasalisation found in other Igbo dialects, hence the sweetest to the ears.

But Chino, sadly, the part of Anambra you claim tocome from, ie Uga, don't speak this sweet dialectical cluster as indigenous dialet. I understand Omambala desire to entrench and elevate this Anambra dialect. But what is exactly your motive of wanting the same?
Do you have more claim to this Anambra dialect than an Enugu man?

LOL...keep deceiving yourself, no one, I mean no one recognized that slum as a capital for any Igbo. Enugu town is the capital of WAWA people. No one acknowledges you guys for anything because you people are classless as much as you are useless to the Igbo cause.

Anambra dialect is what your leaders speak in Enugu state and i know it is very painful for you. Backward people

[s]

odogwu125:
Lol. Life must be hard for average Anambra man. Everbody recognise enugu as igbo capital but it hurts ananbra. Everybody uses imo/abia igbo izugbe for official purposes but Anambra is hurt. I have even acknowledged your dialect as the widespread street dialect but that's not enough for you

[/s]

See I never attacked anyone first. It was this grumpy low esteemed idiot from Enugu dungeon called odogwu123 that started this backlash. All he does is come here everyday to attack Anambra as if Anambra is the reason Enugu state is useless, backward and worthless.

ChimaAdeoye:
Why are you guys always responding intelligently to an arse? Please tell Chino to speak Igala-Igbo dialect let us hear.
That guy is DEFINITELY not from my state. Nobody from Anambra will disrespect other Igbos like he does just to attract attack and hatred on Anambra people.

LOL..I am from Igala but I love Anambra dialect.

Nwanyi oma kedu ife neme? Abum nwanne gi si Igala welu bia. Imaro zi ife ana alu.

Yes, Anambra dialect is sweet and very light, Ndiigbo love it.

Owerre dialect also sounds smooth in music, listen to Oriental brothers.

Enu-ani is melodic too, listen to to the "anu nwobi na egbu azu" song .

The highlighted is the fact I wanted you to admit all these while.

Enugu state has not class, it a very backward town filled with dirty roads, dirty houses. There is no inner streets in Enugu despite being over 100. There is no significant development in Enugu state, the state is so backward and useless. Awka flyovers are worldclass, and Enugu till date do not have flyover. Shame

If i had not visted Enugu recently i would not have known that it is all hype. See the heart of Enugu urban. shame shame shame.

You people in enugu state are classless You people lack education. You people are not enlightened enough. Bunch of slaves

[s]

odogwu125:
Anambra has no classy inner city roads. We got class. Onitsha roads are still carrying over 30 year old asphalt while obiano wasted all Anambra money on mgbidi jericho just to have something to chestbeat about. Please spare us the dialect crap and face the topic

[/s]

Shut up Enugu is a backward town that people kept quiet is not because they don't know the truth. There's nothing like inner streets in Enugu. It is non existent. Let it pain but i must here to say it again and again.


Showing us areas that constitute 2% of the entire town doesn't cut it. Show us these areas that constitute 98% of Enugu urban.

All they have to show is the same areas surrounding the govt house right from the beginning of this thread. Where's Obiagu, Asata, Ogui, Ugwuaji, Emene, Uwani, Coal camp, Achara layout, Idaw River, Garriki etc are those places filled with bad roads and slum not part of Enugu urban?



[s]

InyinyaAgbaOku:
Omambala, Enugu has good inner city roads in most places. The good thing is that even the middle and low class areas like Asata, Uwani, Agbani road have impeccable city plans with good roads and cleanlinessAnd yes, the serial governments maintain them.
A city with such can never play low key.
Abakiliki is towing the same path

[/s]

Hehehehe


Listen to Onyeka Onwenu. Speaking Anambra dialect is like speaking American English. American English flow better than British English.

odogwu125:
Lol. This is irrelevant. Anambra dialect us nore mutually intelligible so it can be used while addressing a larger igbo body. We see no big deal in this
Igbo izugbe was derived from imo dialect. This is used in writing, but they don't make fuss about it. Anambra chestbeat about everything.

[/s]


Shut up. It is very relevant. It means you people from Enugu state are Anambra slaves.

Chai.. Hehehehe

GBAMEST.

The thing dey pain the slaves. Hehehehe

OMANBALA1:
Dont be smart by half, what is spoken in Onicha , Idenmili and Ogbaru cosmopolitan is what we call Anambra dialect. Its a combination of of different Anambra dialects majorly from Onicha ,Idenmili,Ogbaru , Njikoka, Dunukofia and Omanbala river towns. As you go south there are changes but most vocabulary remain the same.

As for Enugu people, 99% of them speak Anambra dialect including Nwodo, Bianca,Nwobodo, Chime and even you but I dont expect you to admit it. Yes, 99% Enugu people say ife, welu, chelu, mmili and what have you. I have been amongst Enugu guys and every gaddem one speaks Anambra, again, including yourself....Stop lying for goodness sake. Anambra dialect is smooth and silky, it rolls out from the tongue easily. No need to deny whats undeniable. I have heard Nwodo speak, Nnamani speak , Nwobodo speak and they never said ashi m'(meaning I said in Enugu dialect) ,rather asi m' in Anambra dialect. Awka speak Anambra dialect with the "v" factor.

And to be frank, I dont know what the ramblings about inner city roads and class is all about. Who doesnt have inner city roads, you are maintaining an already existing road network that were done by previous administration and you call that class! I dont want to insult Enugu people because I respect them but you guys have been stagnant in development. You should keep a low profile because we have not seen anything transformational from you guys.

Shut up. It is very relevant. Today you speak English because of British. Now you can now speak clean clear easy flowing Anambra dialect. Slaves.. Hehehehe

Nwanne don't get it twisted.

The point we are making is that Anambra dialect has become the only dialects igbos from every want to speak in the public.

You dare not speak Nsukka or Ngwo or any other Enugu dialect in the public. Hehehehe

pazienza:
Nothing still wrong with it.
He's speaking Igbo language.
It doesn't matter the dialect.

His grasp of Anambra dialect is superb. Me likey.
I can decipher that he grew up in Anambra area to be that good in Anambra dialect.

No one can learn to speak Anambra that well by just living in Enugu Urban.

What Nwodo speaks is not Enugu Urban. It's pure Anambra central senatorial District ( Idemili/Njikoka/Dunukofia/Anaocha/) dialectical cluster.
Very impressive.

Listen to your brother...lol


He dare not speak Enugu dialect. Lol

[[s]quote author=odogwu125 post=71663064]
Anambra dialect is the dielect of the street and commerce. Imo dialect is used in official situations and for writing. This does not mean any of the other dialects are inferior, its just for convinience. But dialects and success of Anambra indigenes is not the point. You spoilt everything you inherited in onitsha but whenever we do well you claim it was inherited. No, you just lack class[/quote][/s]


On the other it is Enugu state that destroyed everything they inherited because of their lack of education and class.

They destroyed Presidential hotel

They destroyed Nike lake

They destroyed airport

They destroyed Nike lake

They made the state useless and worthless

They made Enugu an ordinary salary earning state.

Odogwu123 face reality for once. Enugu state is very backward behind Anambra, Imo, Abia.

Hehehehe..pazienza oya listen again.

Listen he is addressing people in Enugu state.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xRUjqljnSg


He dare not speak Nsukka or other dialects of Ndi Enugu. Lol

LOL.. listen to John Nwodo, he dare not speak Nsukka or Enugu state dialect in the public. Listen and tell us which dialect he is speaking. Slaves.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyU9-2V0sgA


Listen from 3mins and hear the guy blowing "ife di ofele", "ife malu mma", and so on. Lol

Shut up. What's spoken in Enugu urban is a mix of Onitsha/Awka Igbo dialect. No Enugu person dare speak their original tongue or else people will start avoiding the person.

Have you heard anyone speak Nike, Akaegbe, Ngwo or Awgwu in the public in Enugu before? They don't dare speak their dialect that sounds like incantation.

You people have been recolonized with a superior language and culture. Lol


On the issue of roads, Anambra has far more and better road networks than Enugu state can ever have even in the next 40yrs. Everyone here have seen the propaganda going on.

All they have to show is the same areas surrounding the govt house right from the beginning of this thread. Where's Obiagu, Asata, Ogui, Ugwuaji, Emene, Uwani, Coal camp, Achara layout, Idaw River, Garriki etc are those places filled with bad roads and slum not part of Enugu urban?

What about rural areas that constitute over 97% of Enugu state? Nothing to show too. Una dey deceive una selves. All the facts and stats has shown that Enugu state is the most backward state in the SE. You people are classless as much as you people lack education.

No one is deceived except that people decided to tone down on it here.

Read as usual but don't reply.

InyinyaAgbaOku:
There is nothing like an Anambra dialect. Plus, I am yet to see an Enugu indigene speak Awka(aside Ugwuoba , which isn't in the city), Idemili, or Nnewi dialects. These Anambra dialects aren't even similar. Most Enugu people have peculiar dialects depending on where you are from.
I have lived in Enugu city to know this. I still do. suppose you don't even live here.
A typical Enugu person doesn't say 'ife' and will call the vegetable, 'Oha', not 'Ora'. And will say, mmiri not mmili. Meanwhile, Anambra indigenes, esp other ones may say these.
This is just basic. You took his comment to mean an attack on your people.
Yes, constructing inner street roads is a sign of civilty and class, so, any government that does that has class. Asking who is classy in Enugu is counterproductive, as far as the serial governments made it a duty to build inner roads and plan the citiy as much as possible, they have class. Thanks

[/s]

B2mario, read this, Enugu idiots know themselves. You can see the person is not Chino.

InyinyaAgbaOku:
Lol
Please, ignore those elements . Let's discuss important things in the thread

Ngozi the dirty frustrated old bitch, all of a sudden you are calling your brother to give up because Enugu state has been exposed here.

This same odogwu123 has been running around betraying his frustration over Anambra people but you never called him to order until now. I said it na me hold una antidote for this place.

You asked him to ignore because you know that i am ready to do more harm if he ever show up with his tantrum. Useless good for nothing illiterates.

Osetigoo.

Keep fooling yourself. The guy I was quoting is a low esteemed clown from Enugu state. All he does from thread to thread is focusing his frustration on Anambra and its people. Go through his past posts.

B2mario:
See your way na. Quoting yourself just to derail this thread. What are you benefitting from this?

Yes Uba played a very important key role in Obiano re-election. I saw him personally in Awka and Nnewi during the heat of the campaign. He really tried. Again he is the only one that can match Andy and Chris in Anambra south when it comes to money and thuggery. Uba is very key in taking over Anambra south from the grip of my brothers from Uga. But Obiano has seen what some of us have seen about what Ifeanyi is gonna do once he gets to senate. He should be prevailed upon that he will not contest the next guber poll. Someone like Ifeanyi is not needed to even dare to contest the guber election in Anambra.

globemoney:
I understand these fears and even the likelihood of ifeanyi dumping APGA after winning and this is why I always call ifeanyi ubah money miss road, he’s always everywhere and not strategic but truth be told only Ubah has the capacity to challenge Andy and Chris ubah of APC and PDP for that seat. Bianca ticket will mean APGA losing Anambra south again facts.

APGA has more to gain with keeping Ifeanyi ubah than losing him. The role he played in Obianos re-election is not a child’s play. Victor umeh also supports him. Besides Obiano is still the leader and Bot chairman of the party so no way can ifeanyi ubah upstage his choice in the party. Obiano should just obey the gentleman agreement that’s the best thing to do. He should have known what he was committing himself into.

Tell the idiotic illiterate from the dungeon called Enugu state. They know nothing other than eat okpa. No education, nothing. Classless people.

OMANBALA1:
Onicha is doing very well both in infrastructure and economy. The same Onicha houses and made thousands of Igbo billionaires...Onicha bu ala na azu nwa. No, we don't only have class , we created it , nurtured and regulates it. I can throw names of Ndi Anambra both old and modern from Zik, Ekwueme, Osita Chidoka and Kingsley Muoghalu who exude class but what have you. Anambra is multifaceted.

I am not here to insult Ndi Enugu but you need to be silenced. You can never tell a person is from Enugu until they say so because they speak Anambra dialects. Celestine Ukwu, Mike Ejeagha Paulson Kalu are examples of people who didn't live in Anambra but speaks Anambra dialect.

Uba will create more problem for APGA if given the ticket. Except he shall be made to sign an undertaken that he will not contest the next guber poll. We don't need someone like Uba anywhere near the GOVT HOUSE. Maduka and Soludo are the people billed to take a shot at the ticket in the next guber polls.

OMANBALA1:
Obiano did not make any particular promise to Ifeanyi Ubah neither did Obiano need Ifeanyi support to win an election. Ubah is in the wrong business, a primary will be conducted and he will be taken care off. No sensible human being will vote Ubah over Bianca.

I see you are unto another project but the problem with you is that you are a perennial failure...lol. Only losers hire you...lol

Your live a miserable life, nwa enugu!

The fear is that Ubah if given a mile will seek for 20 miles. The next guber poll is going between Maduka and Soludo, and we know that Uba will likely want to contest the next guber poll. We all know how Uba behave, once he becomes a senator the story will change, and if you do not give him the guber ticket he will likely scatter everything and decamp with APGA mandate to another party. That is just the fear.

globemoney:
Look at this Fulani pig talking nonsense as usual. I thought you said Obiano has failed, what are you still doing here? You are not from Anambra State and I won’t waste my time with a Fulani pig like you.

Why not go to arewa thread and discuss how Fulani herdsmen are killing your people in your native Plateau state since your Peter Obi proganda contract money is no longer coming.

On ifeanyi ubah and Bianca I’ve made my comments and won’t waste my time debating with a non indigene. Go and help your criminal sponsor Peter Obi secure his fantasy PDP VP ticket and fvck off my mentions.

Igbos are republican in nature so it is hard to bring them on the same table

Only Zik and Ojukwu achieved the feat of ever uniting the Igbos under one roof and since then there has not been anyone able to do it.

Odogwu123, come back here, I am now ready for this nonsense from you.

People always wondered why Enugu state is the least in education in Nigeria. It is not far fetched. They do not have any priority in education more than they have for eating okpa and abacha.

This is the condition of most schools across Enugu state but this state is still the most indebted state in the SE. We have not seen any signature infrastructure done by this useless state. The state has not built any industrial complex or IPP etc. Where did all the debt incurred gone to? Classless backward people that don't ask their leaders questions but are quick to chestbeating even when they have nothing.
