hi tekena am kalabari.am in lagos too.am from bakana.my name is tekenate

There you go claiming an another identity. You are really sick in the head

very good point.

i am old school and therefore am more into the original ways of afrocentrism which was NEVER about black racial superiority in any way, shape, or form. In fact to me the idea of a superior race is comical to say the least.

It's just about being black, proud, and educated about one's history.

again you have a good point so i guess i will just say that I am Kails and am not ignorant to or in denial of the different cultures and phenotypes found among black people the world over.

oh shut up! You are black and proud yet spend ur time talking shit about igbos (a black people) eff outta here

Leave the Yorubas out of this. We the Ibibios will never be part of that pipe dream called Biafra.

you pretend to be so many ethnicities on here… are you not fucking embarrassed?

You will not define who we are. We are a separate ethnic group. It doesn't change our origin. You should be condemning the mischievous elements behind this nonsense. I have been very angry since I read this.

why are you pretending to be ekpeye? Any time I attempt to research on Igbo people or people that are attached to us, you some how are present with a different identity. Go, fast and pray. Your behavior is bizarre and resembles one who is a incel. Get off Nairaland and get help.

RedboneSmith:


Is your dad from Aguata? Aguata people have a lot of surnames that begin with Eze. The Eze prefix in most Aguata surnames come from the original bearer having taken a chieftaincy title.

If it turns out that your dad is from Aguata, then the Eze in your name could mean nothing other than that your ancestor had a chieftaincy title.

No he is from Abagana

Hello I’m new to Nairaland. I am a Igbo girl born and raised in the United States of America. Due to not growing up in Igboland, I am very ignorant of certain aspects of Igbo culture. I can speak Nwantiti in Igbo but I understand it perfectly fine. Anyways, I wanted to ask someone w well versed in Igbo culture whether I come from a lineage of priests. My Last name has the title “Eze” and I was wondering if it meant something of importance or just a coincidence. I should also add that my father is from Anambra (if that makes a difference or not)
Thanks so much (Daalu)
