RIP to Elechi Amadi. You may be gone but your works live on.


And Igbos, stop acting like Ikwerres are the holdersbof your collective destiny, we cannot hold you guys back from achieving National/international relevance and recognition.. We, Ikwerres are confident in being Ikwerres and do not see our colleftive destiny being influenced negatively by not being Igbo.

Funny cowards

You see how daft you are, few minutes ago you were claiming that because Ikwerres bear igbo names that automatically makes them igbo. Now you can't give me an answer why Igbos bear English names.
You are igbo so answer my question, u aren't an Englishman so why bear English name? So I have to conclude since Igbos bear English names too they are automatically from Britian or the US or perhaps Australia

And fyi not all Igbos are Catholics so that part about baptismal names is totally out of it.

Igbos answer igbo names , any igbo man that has an english name also has an igbo name,
I dont know the point of ur argument,
Infact ur argument is totally baseless

U didnt answer my question, y do edo christians answer English names, because u r from edo,
Ikwere people answer ikwere names which is their local dialect, and which also happens to be of igbo,
U r not from ikwere so wont understand it

Enahi:
You haven't answered my question, it's not a must to have an English name. Have seen so many people that don't have English names, so why do Igbos have English names?

Y do yoruba, edo and housa christians answer English names
Well it is given after baptism, and stop sounding naive

Enahi:
I am asking you why do Igbos also bear English names, Ikwerres ain't igbo. They are proud of who they are so let them be.
I laugh at times when some of you make stupid comments on nairaland, a successful and enlightened Ikwerre man or woman doesn't know you Igbos exist they don't even talk about Biafra and you nitwits will come on nairaland to type jargons.

U sound naive and not well informed, native name is different from english name, native name is ur mother tongue which tells u ur identity

Wenebadu:
mbu ye ihwuruoha kpomkwem

And if u are not igbo , you should stop speaking that stuff here cause that conversation is igbo

the leader of massob, Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra is an Ikwerre man

Omoluabi16:
I still can't comprehend this igbo/Ikwerre animosity. Most ikwerres here consistently denied being Igbo. So why ar the igbo's hell bent on including them in their proposed biafra? Stay with your 5 states and stop assuming the Riverine/Ss/Nd are part of you! This legend died and some igbo supremacists have come here spouting crap.

Just like we have ikweres that seperate themselves from other igbos , there are also ikweres thar accept that they are igbos,,
Btw i dont care because ikwere is not the only igbo group in river state,
