Ejimagift:
People that are segregating themselves with Osu cast system yet they want Biafra. God knows biafra will not survive 6 months before they fight another civil war. We don't need such unstable country near our borders

Where is our one billion dollar weapon

Chai so the name obi.. Ave turned into oba. Obi which the is very important to any igbotic man. Names like nzeakonobi. Obiadada. Obiadimbugha. Obieze. Obidienu. Chai. All this names which portrays how the obi is highly respected in igbo land. The sacred place which every tittle man must ave... U play every where in ur fathers house but u dare not try it in the obi of ur father..even women dare not enter there without permission.. Even the elders ave the right to send the queen of the land out of the obi in de house of the king for them to do their meeting. The only small but powerful area in every house of a tittle man. Nze. Ozo. Eze. Igwe. Any person who still upholds the culture of ndigbo where the woman don't ave right in ave turned into a bini name oba. Chai...

WAIT o did they say they lost thier language to traders? while the igala living in anambra state for million of years near the cradle of igbo nation and civilisation hav not lost thiesr till date? how come a far distanced bini lose his own, to a mere trader? on a good day a trader should learn the language of the locals not other way round

beautiful. Ask them oooo
We came and gave them enuani language and they lost their language and also their way of life and also when the trading was going on. We named all their bini villages and their monarchs igbo name.... And changed their bini food to igbo food.and also when trading was going on. We introduced our festivals to them.

PabloAfricanus:
This is such a cold blooded declaration of unbreakable enmity! What?
Are you guys for real? That is not an innocent statement at all.
The thought, reasoning and emotions behind that statement is one of implacable enmity.
You Aniomas basically started a fire that engulfed and almost wiped out Igbos,
A people you somehow speak their language, practice their tradition and customs,
I mean without any sense of shame or modesty you guys practically tell the whole world you lost your Bini language to Igbo traders
whom you keep on saying you never had anything to do with!
How did you then abandon your language to them?
How did the Igbos do it?
Are you forgetting that Bini has always been next door and till today Edo people have never spoken Igbo?

How come the first Igbo man who declared himself as Igbo to the British in Nigeria was Obi Ossai of Aboh?
Oh, you Aboh people suddenly developed selective amnesia and forgot your own history right?

So you are saying that even though the whole civil war thing was started by Aniomas, and Aniomas fought for the Igbos including
Nzeogwu himself, it simply does not matter or count.
What counts is your "sentiment" and whom you chose to share "your sentiment" with. That's cold mennnnn.
What matters is that you would rather be known as others who are not you, than sympathize with the only peoples you share anything with?
What matters is that you do not share in the sentiments of over 2 million people who were killed, starved and genocided for nothing...all because they refused to point out to the rest of Nigeria that actually you Aniomas are not Igbos?

What do you think would have happened if Igbo leaders and Ojukwu had publicly made the same announcement you are making now?

"These people who speak Igbo, bear Igbo names and basically practice Igbo customs and traditions are not Igbos, Nigerians beware and take note. Nzeogwu, Ifeajuna are actually Bini people bearing Igbo names and so Aniomas are responsible for Jan 15 1966."

What if the Igbos had teamed up with the Middle Belt, Yorubas and Hausas to bring the war to the very peoples who started the civil war?
I mean its easy, all it takes is a statement pointing out that the Igbos do not share the same sentiments with these Bini people across the Niger
who have been mistakenly identified as Igbos just because they speak Igbo and all that.
How about that?

How many Igbo lives do you think would have been lost as compared to Anioma lives, if Ojukwu, Okpara and Zik had publicly denied you Aniomas in 1966?
You know just the same exact way men named Emeka Esogbue, Elechi Amadi, Bini men bearing Bini names such as Nwachukwu, Chukwuma, Ifeanyi are publicly and without any sense of remorse denying Igbos?
Who do you think the Northerners and the Yorubas would have bombed when they came to avenge Ahmadu Bello, Balewa, Akintola and Ademulegun?
I mean the Igbos were basically in charge of the Army, you remember that don't you?
Who stood to lose? Do you remember that the Eastern Region had the oil in the 60s and was poised to be the richest region?
Who truncated all that? Bini people bearing Igbo names and speaking Igbo remember?
How come the 1966 coup was never known as the Anioma coup?
Or I forgot, Aniomas were Igbos back then, but stopped sharing Igbo sentiments after the war!
You guys are silly jokers

Let me show you why the joke is squarely on you Aniomas any way this story turns, heads or tails.
In fact your denial or non denial makes absolutely no difference.

These quotes are from "The Political Economy of Aboh, 1830-1857"
https://www.jstor.org/stable/3601659












The first Igbo peoples known to the British and whom they traded with and introduced Christianity to were the Abohs!
Ooops, I forgot or rather Obi Ossai and his sons forgot to tell the British about the Lufthansa flight that lifted them from Igueben LGA to Igbo lands in 1397!
I know of course, those historical records do not matter to a people who would rather "choose to identify" as others than their ancestral lineage.
The silliness of the pretend game you Aniomas are foisting on yourselves is just phenomenal!

Igbos should simply cut these people off, they are not worth having anything to do with.
A people who possess such volcanic levels of self hate and inferiority complex are a ticking time bomb.
They do not even hold a fraction of the hatred for the Middle Belt, Yorubas and Hausas who collaborated to kill them on their own their own lands during the civil war.
They have even forgotten by choice, that they suffered gruesome murders at the hands of the Binis, Urhobos, Ijaws and other ethnic groups who surround them, just because they have always known them as Igbos.
They would rather deny anything to do with Igbo and then keep on speaking Igbo, bearing Igbo names and practicing Igbo culture and traditions, while expecting Igbos and the rest of Nigeria to take them serious.
This level of self imposed confusion is what no sensible people should allow in their midst.

In fact, I think it's the Binis who should be extra wary of these shape shifting deniers of history and ancestry, whose sentiments can determine their identities.
LOL, what a funny people

Chai. U will be like tmoro because tmoro neva ends. Beautiful piece by u. Don't mind them. Chai xcess oyel dey ur head.

EDUCATING HIM IS NOT EASY, TOO MANY IGNORANT COMMENTS.

oga that NonsoWow is a yoruba guy. He is an impostor. Follow his comments and see for urself

Chiwude:
Sorry to burst your bubble, but let’s get this right. You’re listing Igbo towns with outside influence in an Igbo discussion thread and yet you failed to tell us how much of an outside influence many Yoruba towns have too. Since you started it, maybe we should help you complete the listing.

1) Owo town - Bini
3) Lagos (Eko) - Bini
4) Ijebu - Sudan
5) Itsekiri - Bini
6) Ilorin - Fulani
7) Ife - Bini (Izeduwa or Oduduwa)
2/3 Of Ekiti - Bini
9) 2/3 Of Ondo - Bini

Hope you’ll leave the thread now.

oga mercy for am nah. Abeg no give am heart attack

ariesbull:
So the Aboh of Mbaise aren't Igbo also


When would you have sense

don't mind him. The worst of it all is dat they can't bring out enough proof or evidence to counter it. Don't mind him. The Aboh in mbaise migrated from heaven

They Are Only Using Acronyms To hide The Igbohood And Igboness Of The Anioma People Igbo Is Igbo From Pre Colonial Times. And Yes forget InteR Tribal Angle Until Very Recent It Was Even Seen Like A Taboo To Marry Outside Your Village Or Just Nearby Villa. We Stucked To Our Igbo Women And They Stucked To Us, Thats In Aintient Times. And Even Up Till Date Other Nigerian View The Igbo As "Wayo" When It Comes To Marriage. Cos They Know After All The Love He Will Run Home To Get A Wife From His Own People. So inter Marriage Story Wont Sell. Anioma Is Igbo By Nature
Anioma Is Igbo By Culture
Anioma Is Igbo By Tradition
Anioma Is Igbo By Outlook
Anioma Is Igbo By Language
Anioma Is Igbo By Blood
Anioma Is Igbo dna
If Anyone Doubts It He Or She Should Move A Motion And Lets Sample Our dna's
Anioma Is Only Politicaly Non-Igbo

emycord u are right. It's all politics

Ghostfacekillar What Is acronym In Igbo Language? You Guys Keep Coming Up With Things That Do Not Exist. Give Us A List Of Igbo Towns Formed By Acronyms In Pre Colonial Times. When Did Acronym Enter Enter Into The Lexis And Structure Of Igbo Language. Currently Except For abia State Which Is Not Up To 30 Years Show Me Another. Guy We Are Talking About Pre Colonial History Here Not grammar. In Igbo aintient Civilisation Its Not Popular To Have Villages Formed By Acronyms

yes my broda.itz true.

clefstone:
An Aboh man is best referred to as Aboh, or Ndo-Osimili if u want a broader grouping that would include the people of the lower banks of the Niger. We just call ourselves Aboh and nothing else

kk no wahala. Ave heard u

clefstone:
of course the Aboh language is an Igbo dialect and is therefore mutually intelligible with your Anambra dialect. However, a people's ethnicity transcends language sometimes, that is the case of the Abohs and surrounding people. Do you know there are Aboh Igbos, who r a minority settler group in Aboh. Visit Aboh and clear your doubts

really. So what ethnic can we call aboh people?

Ngozi123:
Exactly. Igbo bu igbo so all of these divisions are unnecessary.

nwa nnem nwanyi see am ooo. The igbos is solidly behind them for their anioma state. First of all. They should rally the deltaners and carve igbanke and other igbo group out of edo and starts talking about anioma state. If we see they are serious. We will help them

Afam4eva:
I can understand Ogbaru being referred to as Enuani stock but Anioma on the other hand is an artificial creation which is an acronym of all the Igbo speaking parts of Delta state. Some people are beginning to make Anioma seem like an ancient civilization of some sort which is not true.

tell them. Anioma heritage. How many se ave been claiming Kins over there.

Ngozi123:
Exactly. It's simply a political construction, just like Anambra, Imo, Ebonyi etc. I don't care about these states as they were designed to facilitate the oppression and marginalization of Igbos. I really don't understand why some Igbos take pride in them.

anioma is just an acronym. We are all igbos. Just as u said itz a case of reverse migration. Some from se to there. Some from there to SE and on and on it goes.

ariesbull:
LoL


Who would sing it
Who would endorse it



You see their attitude is coming to haunt them, don't worry the herdsmen would remind them and the non Igbo of Delta would notify them who they are

They should ask Ikwerre in Rivers how the ijaw see them

hunter land igbos.

ariesbull:
DO YOU KNOW THAT UP TILL NOW NOBODY HAS BEEN ABLE TO TELL THE WHOLE WORLD HOW ONITSHA AND OTHER VILLAGES THAT THEY ARE CLAIMING TO BE ANIOMA (ACRONYM) CAME ABOUT


so much for lies and propaganda...let them tell us how they are member of their anioma or are they now the land grabbers we are talking about

lol. Don't mind them. But to some bini wana be won't feel ashame to ride on our igbonese to one appointment like dat and will reject it when the going gets bad. Is it not hypocrisy... If u are bini be bini. Be proud of it. Not am bini. Sorry am ika. Abeg delta igbo. No i mean edo igbo. Bini igbo. Migrational igbo. Mistakenly speaking igbo language bini people. Abeg make dem stay there

ariesbull:
The whole thing tire me...they have refused to tell us what qualifies a community in the East as Anioma...this is madness and stupidity....I have been waiting for answers but none


Anioma is acronym and no community in east was and is part of that tag

let them continue. Pazienza jst said the truth.
Itz high time we stop playing emotional politics. One luv to my enuani and oshimili brodas and some other people. And for bini wannabes itz high time they stop riding on our igbonese to achieve their aim. People like rotimi amaechi
. And co

ariesbull:
Now you are making sense because one anioma.ksmt a tribe but an acronym two there is no yardstick for calling a community in east anioma because they are not part of that acronym

tell them. Anioma was jst a name coined out nothing else. Afta their failure to grab Lagos. They turned east

ariesbull:
So are you Igbo ?

proudly igbo. Am jst trying to tell them. That they are not the only people that sojourned in people land and got mixed. I was jst making a reference to it. Nkporos don't ave identity crisis

We ave counted some of them out... Let the people that wana go leave and let the stay in Nigeria and wallow in ignorance

Lajet:
Honstely speaking i don't know what is wrong with IPOB And Massob .this people have said it so many times that they are not part of Biafra still yet the keep on including them in biafra map even including some Northern state . I'm very ashamed any time this small group keep on insulting igbos because of this rubbish IPOB and Massob are doing. Majority of Igbos are in support of Biafra that will only include only Igbos in South East, South South and Middle belt. Not this Mini Nigeria IPOB and Massob are planning. It's high time the should call IPOB and Massob to order this disgraceful act must stop Enough is Enough

the high time they know it the better
