The reason why you won't curse them back is because you are more socially evolved than them, and they know this.

Just show them that they are inconsequential. That their curses or rants does not reduce an inch of your greatness.

Do you how many people all over the world who are proud to be identified with ndigbo?

Cursing this other ones back will bring you DOWN TO THEIR SOCIAL LEVEL....BELIEVE ME, I have been there once.

but at least we should campaign to avoid them... Cut any relationship with them and allow them be

BrokenTV:
It is because of this mindset that the president or the vice president will come from this particular region that we are still in this kind of situation, when are we going to start thinking about the capability and integrity of the person involved instead of looking at it from ethnic perspective. It is as a result of this that a man that is not qualified to lead Umunna meeting was made a President.

u should ask the north this question

naijaking1:
I am 100% proud Igbo, but strategically, Fayose will be a better choice.
Igbos trust Fayose more than some efulefu Igbo men like Orji Kalu, and Okorohausa, etc!
Go Fayose!

story. Lol. Continue dreaming.. The day he picks that slot he turns an enemy

frankfrancis871:
with all due respect, stop insulting the IGBO race. You sound like one who is confused whether he's Igbo or not! I guess you have never lived in the north if not you won't be saying these, many serious people are working to unite the Igbo race and you're here causing division! Any Igbo man who choses to identify with the larger Igbo race should not cast out, the only reason I'd let you do that is when his motives are for political reasons and nothing more! Please unity is the power, have a good morning..

talk is cheap. Go there and see for urself

superlightning:
I am pro-igbo but am not with you.

I don't do things that way.

i entered that group and almost cried to see them cursing igbo... Their air is polluted.they seat on wealth but nothing to show for it. They rather collect 65 ooo monthly stipend than fight their oppressots. Let them continue deceiving themselves

Most of the political pundits online seem to tie the fate of the SS and SE together without realising the diversity of political views and ethnic interests in the SS. The SE is one but the SS is a group of more than 30 disparate people. To bring them as one, Atiku needs to give us a rallying point and that rallying point has to be a VP slot.

The swing region is the SS. The SE has no choice but to vote Atiku. The SW may not vote for Atiku regardless of who his VP is but the SS can give Atiku a bloc vote of 8m if he plays his cards right. He has to get a VP from the SS. SE is already certain for him. SW will be difficult for him even with a VP slot but a SS VP slot will consolidate his message of restructuring and true federalism. It will fetch him votes from states that may otherwise be divided and it will also curry him the favour of SEners that may not want a SWner as VP as well as SWners that many not want a SEner as VP. Its a win-win.

All he needs to do is to get someone with widespread influence in the SS. Then he can promise the SW the position of SFG or SP.

when goodluck dey reign nko
Abeg... South east

lol. Let them try it and be doomed... Ipob go be popular

Curlieweed:
They don't speak Igbo. They speak Ikwerri - a poor imitation.

dats true my broda. Nonsense
Make i enter Facebook self start my campaign. This is something every here who is pro igbo should start doing..

Ikwerre is not igbo and beginning a campaign in Facebook. Build on ph at ur own peril.. They ave thought us that speaking igbo does not make one igbo.we will treat them like that

Please ikwerre is not igbo. Our fathers taught them igbo language not just igbo language. A distinct igbo dialect... Please ogba. Ekpeye and Ikwerre are all impostors. They should start answering their real name....

selfemployed:
How come the Obi of Onitsha dress in white regalia like the Ooni of Ife and the Oba of Benin. There seems to be something common about them.

please i don't want to start arguing.. White is like purity.. Am from abia state and my king wears white regalia..for them I don't knw cos I ain't an onitsha indigenes.. Itx more like a trend nowadays
.. But for them am not sure cos am not from there....

selfemployed:
I saw the documentary that says onitsha people are descendants of Ooni's brother Ooni Itshe. He came Ife, then to Benin before crossing the Niger to establish Onitsha

lol. Mr. Onitsha is actually a mispelt Onicha. .. That orisha stuff is falacy..

xfactor23:
There is also a town called Ogidi in Ebonyi state. Ivo to be precise.

guy don't mind this people.we ave strong evidence compare to them. They cannot give a meaningful xplaination

Ikwerre are not igbo. They will neva be. We know our kin in Rivers but for ikwerre. They are not igbo. We are not lazy

Xplain y there is no "r in it.. U people claim that u were marginalized but an igbo man carried the shell quarters in owerri and transferred it to ph... Who built Trans amadi?..

The biggest amadioha shrine is in ikwerre. Mtchew

viscerion:
@ fero n 93, its okay, its obvious aries n his likes dont want to learn, weve been given good points n in return they either insult or derail sturbornly, they are free to believe what they want as long as we know the truth

well since they ve said ikwerre is igbo, then i ve no choice, i must be igbo, my own opinion n d opinion of my people is stupid, only theirs is correct

Nobody is claiming u. U can be ikwerre all I care. But the truth stands... Isiokpo... Rumuola.. Etc. Come to ngwa and see ur umuola kin.. Come to ebonyi and see ur Isiokpo kin. Omerelu.. Go and read books written by by elechi amadi and he will tell u how his father always take him to Aro.. Incase u don't know in the olden days ikwerre ave four stools in the masquerade group of amadioha.. Nonsense... Opobo adopted igbo?... Go and read about how they come to ama igbo for pilgrimage for the founder of Opobo jaja.

As of Biafra...don't say never bro ...it's only in the hands of lord and why are you leeching on Igbo

Can't you stand on your own


Don't worry we don't have Igbo any place outside South East ...don't mind Edwin Clark ....it's too much ogogoro would make him call an Ikwere man igbo

Old age dey worry am


Are you happy now ?

don't mind them... All this Igbo villages in cross river and akwaibom are all my Kins.. They are Kins to Abriba. Nkporo. Afikpo..afara ukwu etc. In abia state and if Nigeria breaks. My brodas are coming with me.

aniomafirstson:
Owerre Olubor (ika northeast)
Ute owerre (ika northeast)

There is a town called ogidi in anioma. Do you know the relationship it has with the one in anambra state?

yes they are. The akiri people. Reverse migration. Maybe from anambra to delta or from there to anambra.we are all related somehow. Where I come from.. We are called nda Agbor. And we call our kins in the upper part nda elu

Tushkito:
I find ikwerre people's eyes on igbo women especially from imo axis very very repulsive.

There was a time an ikwerre guy called kinika was disturbing my sister, calling her all the time and sending love messages to her, it was funny at first but then it became very disturbing, the obsession was just too much.

This highly igbophobic people marry igbo women from imo state yet it is the product of that unholy union, that exihibits igbo hatred the most.

Igbo women too are part to blame, they marry every Tom, Dick and Harry without checking their backgrounds and their views towards their people. They marry mostly because of blind love or money.

don't mind them. They will still find an igbo woman to marry. Kinika means ginika. Okini means Ogini

hammer6F:
lolllz

bros don't mind this people

hammer6F:
Serving the North is their destiny.

They are happy with a Mustapha owning the oil well in their community.


This people should not be accepted back into the Igbo fold should they even desire so.

They are like a cancer. The only way to get rid of cancer is to cut it off.

lol. And their oil belongs to jigawa

GuyWise:
Purehuman remeber that we have never had someone who represented us well in Aso-rock since 1970, remember that the fight against Igbos by the FGN is not slowing, remember we have bunch of visionless looters in our mist.


Chineke nyere Ndigbo aka.

imagine what we can do with igbo land if we ave good people in igbo land rather than efulefus.. Imagine if okoroausa and ngige should play their games well. Forget them

pazienza:
It's from "Isu-ama".
That's the word Ikwerre and Ogba people use to describe Igbos. I think it's from the errenous assumption that all Igbos are from the ancient Isu clan of Igbo that inhabit Northern Imo and Southern Anambra.

Funny enough, Ikwerre people call Owerre people Isoma too, while Owerre people call other Igbo speaking groups around them, Isoma.

It's akin to how Ngwas call all other Igbo speaking groups North of Ngwa land "Ohuhu".


Ikwerre and Ogba people use the Isoma thing in condescending manner.
One Ogba rabid Igbo hater in Ogba facebook page, told me that in the past, my Isoma people use to come to farm for his ancestors for a peanut as pay, since Ogbalands were more fertile than Isoma lands. That his father told him that Isoma people are people of lowly background, who worked for Ogba people in their farmlands while Ogba people rested at home, and that Ogba people are descendants of Bini princes. That they can't be Igbos, that Igbos are Isomas.


So you can see, a part of their resentment of Igbo tag is deep rooted in generational arrogance passed down to them, which portrays them as royal blood, and Igbos(Isomas) as Slaves (labourers).
Yet they would always swear that Igbos are arrogant, and that's why they hate Igbos. You can imagine the irony.
I bet they expect us to come and start working on their farmlands again, to be adjudged humble. This is why I easily dismiss claims of arrogance against Ndiigbo by Bitter Igbophobic Nigerian groups. It's often ironic, if you dig deeper into their claims, you find out they are rather the arrogant ones, who expect Ndiigbo to not rise, in other to be adjudged humble.

don't mind them. How many people around there ave oil well. Lol. The north is busy taking all their wealth while they still wanna serve the north

Purehuman:
To be frank, it's their problem.

My problem is that we are doing nothing in getting our position right in this world. Yes, individually we are making progress but as a people we are still struggling. It's been all too glaring judging from the level of industrial development we currently find in the east today.

my broda. Sometimes I it is the government that holds us down because I know that if the igbos get a working sea port. We will xcel more and also we should also change our mind set towards igbo denials

Purehuman:
No, that's being truthful. The ladies was actually calling me steady even two years after leaving the place.

that's women for u. Their women love the easterners because they know we are hardworking
. Nobody want to suffer with someone who thinks 65 ooo monthly stipend is his right
