^ ewe

i get an anioma owned church to attend this morning. who knows, maybe i will meet my friend iguefi there, haha.

chyz, binis claim igbo? binis do not even claim esan who are our half-brothers/or closest cousins not to talk of the european created “igbo” identity.

the binis do not claim anything else apart from bini, and allows other edo groups to maintain and enjoy their own identity/uniqueness no matter how closely related.

so an individual, it is either you know you are an ovbi-edo kpataki or you are not cos there is nothing like ovbi-bini. it is actually that simple.

lol, andre, iguefi sounds better to me.

igue = village
efi = "igbo" sounding name

so, igue+efi = iguefi = efi's village.

and that will actually make a nice name for a village in the proposed anioma state, haha

see? im already helping u guys out with new names of villages in ur anioma state, later una go say bini people nor good. mtcheew!

iguefi, the reason i came back to the thread is i love to see u address urself, and oh, i hope u like the way i "binized" ur name, ozuo

lol, chyz,

orisha/or orisa is also one of the "yoruba" names for god or deity. so which one man go come believe?

ok, what of the "kwe" part of it? does it mean agree in "igbo" dialects?

coz i know in edo, "kwe" means agree  and "osa" means god. and that just seems to perfectly rhyme with osa-kwe meaning god-agrees and it is also the same with the "igbo" meaning.

so maybe the "igbos" are really not jews but just plain ol' edos? haha

and oh, i always thought chineke was the more authentic  "igbo" word for god? coz that's what the "igbos" usually say when are stressing out. "chineke, god, abeg o!"

and i have gotten it together with myself, just waiting for the "igbos" to do same so that we can move on. coz today they are jews, tomorrow they trace their ancestry to edo, the day after that, na egypt.

and one last thing, where are all the olisakwe/ orisakwe/olisekwe/ orisekwe on facebook? u guys should post pictures i go check them out tomorrow coz maybe i will find some oba eweka's children inside.

so, obaemeka on facebook is slave-emeka? and they are descendants of slaves? and here i was, thinking they were royalty. i take my hailings back! mtcheew!

or maybe it was oba eweka that transformed to oba-emeka? shai, make una come see direct oba eweka descendants ooo, ryt on face book. thats pure royalty ryt there. so lemme hail royalty, oba gha tor kpere, ise!!! hahahahahahahaha

oba-emeka, that is weird combination oooo, and the first time im seeing such a combo
i guess that one can also claim yoruba ancestry also, when e don taya for the jewish one, haha

lol, i didnt even see the picture before i was asking the "oba" related names, haha

yeah ryt, so how did orisakwe and olisakwe now transfrom to osakwe. thats too much of a stretch that is unbelievable. is osa, olisa, orisa the "igbo" name for god? edos answer osakwe.  ok, lets assume edos dont, how about those with "oba" related names? or there not any? maybe im wrong also, school me.

iguefi, dont use ur pump action to shoot me ooo, cos i dont want to be caught in the "cross-fire", na tafia i dey, and i was just strolling by, haha

city of blood, but you guys can’t seem to stay out. so who is now enjoying the blood? and i thought igbos also claimed they were jews? now it is "like the jews”?

honestly, “igbos” are the most confused people in nigeria that why i love hanging out with them coz they always make me laugh.

btw, omonoan/iguefi internet schizophrenia can easily be cured if you just make your points with one id.

and you said i was unexposed? i have dual citizenship and a kpali that “igbos” marry ugly-fat-caucasian women go get, and i didn’t get it by marrying anyone, and im still single.

and you also made one silly comment that the contemporary itsekiri man does not see himself different from “yoruba”? are you serious? i know you live in benin, and i know u know benin has the best mama-put joints across nigeria. so lemme tell u a “real” story.

i was buying pepper rice from a bini woman recently, and this girl was giving her phone number to the woman, and the woman asked her name, and she said “alero” a name that sounded “yoruba”, and the woman asked, “oh, you be yoruba?” and the girl chuckled and replied “no, i be itsekiri”  and the woman said “ok”. thats a real-life situation not all these made-up stuff you guys are spewing on the internet with multiple identities.

an itsekiri person on a good day will never identify as yoruba, cos unlike the contemporary “yoruba” identity the itsekiri one has existed for centuries and has survived till this day.

how is a “delta-igbo” man with “osakwe” as surname which is a proper edo name meaning god-agrees, and which common amongst edos and deltans going to feel “igbo”? and identify as such? you guys are living in a fantasy world on the internet fighting internets wars that are irrelevant to what is happening on the streets.

lol, ezeagu, so which one is unimportant? so it is now a case of important ikas vs unimportant ikas? u guys are funny, man.
anyways, this topic is now boring to me, im out.

lol, iguefi, stop saying you have moved on when it is clear you haven’t. and trust me, the ikas who do not feel "igbo" (across the niger/east) and don’t identify as such are not in the minority, they are just not vocal about it. i grew up around these people and they will be quick to tell u who they are when it is time for such issues.

and u are not here to educate anybody coz no educated nigerian needs to be educated about what happened during the war. u are here to smear the binis and impose your opinions on others who do not share same sentiments. so do the best u can and keep it moving.

and u also seem to be one of those who has benefitted immensely from the binis and edos in general and i actually think u live in benin, yet u hate us so much. all im going to tell u is be careful with who u align urself with because those who u think “loves” you so much may not be doing it in your own interest.  and these are my parting words to u coz i really don’t care about having the “last word” with anybody on the internet. take care.

iguefi, i will not bother arguing with a fool like u on the igbanke issue coz i can see u are  u are one of those who believe u are the one speaking for "your people", whereas even on this thread alone u can see the diverse opinions of "your people". lots of ikas do not identify as "igbo" and do not want anything to do with them, and this na just internet o not real-life. so what are u going to do with such people in real-life? annihilate them all so that u can push your agenda?

the austin lazarus who is not even big of a deal, uve been throwing his name around has a house in benin, but an "igbo" man in the east would hardly sell land to me as a bini man or non-indigenous person to build his house on. this is land i want to buy o, not dash, with my own money in my own country nigeria, yet igbo man will tell me he will not sell to me coz im a foreigner. even in my own country im regarded as a foreigner, yet the binis are "self-proclaimed" liberals. like i said my stay in the east made me tough and appreciate where im coming from and to focus on my people. so if all the nonsense u are spewing on this thread is what u are preaching to your people, let me assure u, u are not helping them but drawing them back. i think i will leave u to your internet bickering and concentrate on what's real.

Ozuo, here, have the last word _________

and it better be good.

Ngodigha:
Am still waiting for your insults on Igbo posters here before I jump into part two.

lol, u stupid fool, stop adressing me. well, unless u are female. i dont mind "igbo" female company, haha

@abagworo,  i usually dont get into all the politicking and yapping on the internet because most times it does not reflect what is on ground and how the "real people" feel in real life. the "igbos" fought a war, they lost. so what u do is u either learn not to fight again or u re-group and fight again. but i hate people who play the victim card as if everyone plus god and devil is against them.  i live in benin, truth be told igbos mostly delta stock are everywhere here and seem to get along fine with people. so for iguefi start branding the binis as people who were out to kill igbos and eliminate them, yet they should be the most non-indigenous people in benin who find it very easy, in fact way too easy for them to settle in, is wrong even if he is posting it on the internet. i actually doubt he delta igbo stock though, but if he is he is a rare type. iguefi comments were just out of place and that was why i joined the yapping.

Ngodigha:
Then take this: Fanny flaps cuntbitchwannkerarse.

lol, what are u speaking? is that also a dialect in "igbo"?

and even if there already existed an "igbo" word or tribe or town or village or whatever, it became popular through oludara and the slaves from that area, so that was why the europeans branded everybody from that region as igbos. mind u, i opted not to post the corrupted european word not to hurt your feelings

so i guess the igbo language/identity is just eroding other languages/identities that existed in that area. its cool.

Ngodigha:
You mean Olaudah Equiano?.
Before Olaudah, there have been an Igbo identity, but no so sure when and where it began. Probably, in the new world as slaves of Igbo origin at one time assembled at a particular Town in British America, they sang songs in Igbo language, rioted and some of them collectively resisted the white slave masters and jumped into the see collectively.
However, collectively singing a song in Igbo while in America could show that an identity might have been formed before arriving in the new world.
Some modern day nations like Israel formed their identities while in exile.
Anyway, am not an expert in Igbo affairs, but am not happy with you constant insult of Igbo forumites here. That attracted me to this post. Just stop it.

shut up! this comment is silly coz it had no curse words. post what will amuse me.

Ngodigha:
Arsee wipeee, it does not matter where the Igbo identity came from, how about the Yoruba identity, Zulu identity and Hausa identity. It could be from heaven, hell, new world or Igbo heartland. The Igbo in the 21st century has forged an identity that will make them relevant in the scheme of things in Nigeria and globally. FFucking kitty asz shiit, as some posters have earlier said, Igbo is a collective of dialects that are closely related. They are not 100 percent understadable to one another but no worries. The Igbo language just like other African languages is still developing, so it does not matter if Iselu Ukwu man understands Ngwa man or not but they are Igbo.
The president general of Ohanaeze is from Ogwashi Ukwu and during the last Ohanaeze day, he spoke Igbo in his native Ogwashi dialect, yet no one complained.
Hence you obstructionist, ffuck off you ffucked up ffucker.

that was not what i asked you. coz i already know all that so spare me bullcrap coz i dont care. what i want to know is where did the "igbo" identity/language come from? was it from oludara the slave?

Ngodigha:
FFucking hell shitt-bag, stop commenting on Igbo affairs and stop insulting forumites here, is that too difficult for you to understand, cocksucking LovePeddler.

lol, make me stop by answering the question. where did the "igbo" language/identity come from? oludara the slave?

and oh, sand nigga is a derogatory term for arabs not "black" people. so how did u think that will make someone like me feel bad? thats why i said i find u internet fool amusing. but dont stop keep talking.

Ngodigha:
Asz banging sand Nigga, you are not Igbo and should shut your mouth up. Ngwa man says he is Ngwa when he is with Mbaise, Owerri, Onicha man etc. Owerri man or Afikpo man will say the same thing. But outside, no Ngwa man will say he is not Igbo but Ngwa. Tell me where that has happened. obstructionist.

lol, call me names all u want. words dont hurt me especially those "read" on the internet. and i was in isiala ngwa for three weeks. that was how i knew. and all the "igbos" there seemed confused and needed interpreters. my closest friend in camp was an "igbo" guy from isele uku and he couldnt understand a damn thing the "igbos" were saying. so again, where did the "igbo" language/identity come from? oludara the slave?

by the way, can someone post a link with a list of the 300 hundred languagues in nigeria? that is the only link id be interested in clicking on not all the bullcrap circulating on this thread.

Ngodigha:
Wart hog, stop running your smelly mouth more, why do you have to insult Ogbuefi1 when he has not insulted you, asz hole?. Or is it a crime to be Igbo and Delta?. Just respect forumites here and be civil, hoe bag.

and who are you? his lawyer?

and who are you to tell me how to conduct myself on the internet? u think too much of yourself, so shut up!

@ Obiagu1

Igbo identity/language contemporary?

of course, lots of "igbos" do not speak the same language and cant understand each other. ngwa man does not call himself igbo, he says im ngwa and speaks ngwa. so where did the "ïgbo" language/identity come from? the oludara the slave?

Ngodigha:
Donkey despoiling shitt-eater, you have been so idiotic in this thread by going from insulting Ogbuefi1 to Abagoro. Asz clown, why can't you make your opinion known without the use of abusive words. Mother ffucking biatch, Igbanke people are Igbo people in Edo state and they have been agitating to be merged with their kit and kins in Anioma. So, take it or leave it, asz humper.

lol, look at another . the only person ive insulted on this thread is iguefi and honeslty speaking he is a big fool. but keep talking. i find u internet fools amusing.

@jason

@exotik
Did you just say there is nothing like Yoruba Then how do we explain the Oyo empire + Dahomey empire that was conquered by the Yorubas? I am waiting!!!

was there ever a "yoruba" empire oyo empire? yes. yoruba empire? no.

did the oyos ever called themselves "yoruba"?? i am waiting!

iguefi, no matter how u twist it, igbanke is not anioma, igbanke is edo. they are more "edo" than "igbo". u may get ur wish and they will become part of anioma, but that does not make them any different from who they are, they will just be edo speaking people in anioma state.
