Deltagiant:
I know only about the Igala language speakers in Anambra. Except you wanted to say the different dialects in the state. Many people, rightly or wrongly, are of the opinion that the Omambala region's dialect is by default the flagship tongue of Ndi Anambra.

This dialect is traditionally spoken mainly in the Oyi, Ayamelum, Onitsha North, Anambra East/west and Dunukofia councils. The youths thinks it's sexy.
Other neigbouring communities whose dialects come close to the above are Ogidi and Obosi. Nkpor and Umuoji to an extent.

The Ogbarus, from Idemmili-Odekpe down to Obeagwe have their own dialect, though very light like the Omambalas.

I will group Abatete, Eziowelle and Abacha together. Then Abagana and Nimo on one side, though the Abagana's tilted more to the Dunukofia side. Amichi, Nnobi, Nnokwa, Agulu-UzoIgbo, Igboukwu, Adazi and Oraeri in one group.

Parts of Umunri; Nawfia and Enugwu Ukwu speaks like the natives of Awka and environs. Nnewi North, parts of Idemmili like Oba and Ojoto, including the Ekwusigo council speak in a similar way. On the other hand, Nnewi South and parts of Orlu/Mgbidi shares dialectical affinity.

Aguata: Umuchu, Akokwa, Osina etc. are very unique. Umunze, Isulo, Nawfija, Ekwulobia, Uga, Ogbunka and so on are another group amongst the rest.

So, yes, Anambra nwelu different dialects. I’ve lived amongst them. And can rightly guess their respective communities/areas whenever I’m their midst.

Wow! Good to know that someone understands that there re core Omambala communities. But it comprises of Oyi, Ayamelum, Anambra East and West.

achi4u:
Aghamelum LGA in Anambra state is another town with a strange language so differently from other towns.
What could be the cause of this variation frm this wonderful people?

The core omambala communities, Oyi, Ayamelum, Anambra east and West, speak the same dialect with little variance. Their dialects is the most complicated of all Anambra dialects.

Who was the photographer.....just asking

ImperialYoruba:
Is it Ovala or Ofala?

Its the same, just that, Nothern part of Anambra interchange "F" with "V"

OMANBALA1:
Umuleri Oke Ebo na Omanbala!
Omanbala ebuka.
Omanbala erika.
Omanbala di ebube, di ugwu dikwa ngala.

Omanbala holds the touch of Igbo culture and shows the way.

Omambala muani!
Omambala zuani!

Proudly Awkuzu (AKZ)

This people.....common mistake in English language.

It's called ganglion cyst. It could go away on its own or require surgical procedure. Most times , it is painless and harmless. A surgery also doesn't guarantee that it won't grow back. I had to surgically remove mine twice from the same spot for cosmetic purposes.

Thank God they were caught. Now, all of Nigeria's problems has been solved !�

Sadly, the filling station where I went to buy fuel this evening refused a bag of rice as payment�

The federal government on Monday said the rice revolution embarked upon by President Muhammadu Buhari since assuming office has taken millions of Nigerians out of poverty, adding that the achievements alone is enough to get the president re-elected for another term if he decides to run.

Addressing a press briefing in Lagos, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, Minister of Information said the rice revolution started by the federal government through the Anchors Borrowers Programme has reduced drastically the importation of rice in the country as 60 percent of rice eaten in Nigeria today are produced locally.

“The agricultural revolution in general and the rice revolution, in particular, have taken millions of Nigerians out of poverty. As a matter of fact, today, 60% of rice eaten in Nigeria is produced in Nigeria. In the words of the rice processors, the rice revolution alone is enough to guarantee re-election for President Buhari, if he decides to run again!”

“We want to use this opportunity to appeal to Nigerians to complement the efforts of the government by consuming only locally-grown and processed rice. It is fresher. It is tastier. It is healthier. It has not spent months on the high seas and warehouses” .

“We don’t know where or how imported rice is made or how old it is? It is reported that most of the rice dumped on us are old and probably rejects. The citizens of those countries do not eat this rice. The citizens of Benin also do not eat it. But they send it to us. Unhealthy foods are dangerous to health. So let’s eat what we can vouch for”.

I know the man chai ! He's very nice. Married to my uni best friend's elder sister,Aunty Chisaa

Under this man, anambra was worse than kogi and Benue put together. It was shameful to tell people I was from that state.

The priest in the picture is not father mbaka

awkuzu is my hometown. the only ancestial history I got from my father (though not certain) is that Awkuzu ibilibeogada(king of Locust) originated from a woman called Nnamenyi, and that their is a link between awkuzu and awka, that is why our dialect is almost the same. I would like to update this post as soon I get informations.

Am from umunnebo Dusogu Awkuzu. You are from which part bro?

Do you know any details about this link with Awka? I would like to know. We in Awka do not have any traditions of kinship with Awkuzu, but I've always thought there was something intriguing about the name similarity.

Also could you please give me a feel of the Awkuzu dialect by translating the following sentences into Awkuzu dialect:

1. It is true. The thief that stole my money just left here now.
2. No, I won't give you my groundnuts.
3. Where are you going.
4. Come here before you go there.
5. Did you say you won't tell me your name.

I am from Awkuzu, though born and bred in Enugu. Will try to translate as much as I can.

1. Or eziokwu na onye ori avu zuulu egom si nkor pu ya?
2. Kpaa. Mm'e enyero gi opapa'm.
3.kedu ebe ijije?
4. Bia nkor nwa tupu ijeve ebe avu.
5.I si n'iya agwarom ava gi?.

Hope I tried in the translation

Am from anambra and we interchange f with v. So pls include that. Thanks

OP am sorry, I have no explanation as to why we ndi anambra like to marry from home. But both my parents are from the same town, I married a guy from my town likewise my sister. In fact, in my entire extended family, we don't have a history of marrying even from the neighbouring towns. Same goes for my inlaws.
