AmuDimpka:
Wait a minute Igala aren't related to yoruba and Igala never assimilated Aboriginal Igbo it is the other way round

AmuDimpka:
Mercy Chinwo is from Rivers and we have a lot of Igbo that are indigenous to Rivers irrespective of political correctness.. she sings in Igbo, her name is Igbo ... So Biko she is Igbo of Rivers State

Why all. These argument

See I understand all your ideas these thing you wrote here are false it has been made to believe by some writers and i can believe that most igbos in ibaji and odolu igalamela who settled there were as a result of migration with from way back wars and farming and other natural causes which in those days nobody have time for segregration .

People welcome people to settle with them, and you saying igala came from yoruba its a big lie...then where is yoruba from? Oduduwa fell from the sky abi?

Oduduwa is a run away prince from benin who was even named oduduwa by the igalas when he settled in Idah as he fled away for fear of being killed in benin he went northward the river niger and it was idah and the then Attah welcome him and gave him comfort because he looked rich and well fed and they allowed him to lived amongt igala which he then moved to another part of igala land called ife and married some igala women about three of them and gave birth to children ..then he moved to a third migration southwards .

to present day location and it was the name he got form the ife in igala land he used to name the present day ile ife in present day yoruba kingdom.

Then he gave birth to oraimyan and some of his children , oramiyan later went back to benin to rule and they could not understand his language because he has been taught igala tonation which is what we call a mother tongue ( if your mama born you and speak your native dialect no be the dialect you go understand when growing up).
so that was how oramiyan went to benin n ruled a while but he was having difficulties to communicate with the benins he left there to ibadan and continue by then his dialect has changed to what we know as yoruba..

WHY DO YOU THINK YORUBA LANGUAGE N IGALA ARE THE SAME ALMOST ORALLY

these yorubasdont even agree their progenitor are from benin kingdom with igala mother , instead they say benin are from them..so sad because of population explosion and education and returned slaves of the modern time to add up their population.

see what other connection igbos have with igalas tell me ..Yorubas own is so clear and i will let you know igbos came to igala land just for settlement like the other igalas that left idah to ibaji n illah and nzam and asaba as well and presently in Ebu in Oshimili north in delta speaks igalas till today they know their origin is from idah

Ibajis then started mixing with igbos and edos due to trading and influence of the river Niger nearness and this foster marriage within these tribes but that does not stop ibajis from n ot being igalas till today they are still igalas
as for the case of eko avurugu and ette and akpanya its the same similarity , igbos settled there due to settlement and trade and mixed up. same way igalas settled in Nsukka and mixed with them as well , infact influencing many of Naukka traditions from masquerades and red cap which igbos wear today is from iagala and Attah onced ruled there hope you are aware.

its goes within the two community within the borders of igalas and igbos we coexist butijn terms of ancestry we got noting in comon much, we both have influenced ourselves in marriages and trades only the yoruba i can attest because of the language.

remember in the ancient time people travel a lot.

Everybody with their own version of Igala history well so how come Igals traced their history to ancient egypt and every thing can be found

Trash haha igala that is as old than many of the offsping tribe , you are saying they made us....Hey oga you dont know what you are saying..who are idomas when you mention igala history?

Igalas are igalas by tribe ok older than any of these tribes who came to settle in idah way back because idah always welcome other tribes and now you are saying igalas came from them.

Revolva:
I did not say they speak igala ok it's from the onset that historical every body have been assimilated way back in the ancient time

Even illah also were 60 percent igalas

But today they don't speak igala anymore

Only Ebu in Oshimili north speak igala and they were the last day migrated from idah to present day ebu which was ceeded from old Bendel state to delta state ok

Justice35:
Lolzzzz Abeokuta!! The IGR capital of Nigeria....... See the environment like evil forest......check well maybe na excess IGR wey wash away that road.

24SEVEN:
No need for that. You are becoming an Igbo influencer on NL. With that comes responsibility. Don't be an agent of division between brothers. Unite not divide.

24SEVEN:
It is not denial. it is referred to as "strategic withdrawal". Apologies to Nigeria army

merahki:
I have personally never heard of an ugu soup

24SEVEN:
Igboid we are one. come and see confirmation. Bring whiteangel123 along.

AmuDimpka:
There is ugu soup.. I never said that someone invented It . But the truth is that someone stared it


Ora is a soup common with the Anambra folks with biter leaf just like Okazi and Ugba soup is common with Imo folks and Achara common with Abia

Each region has soups just like Edikiakong is an Efik/Ibibio stuff


I love God soups and regions have their soups !

Is this up for debate

AmuDimpka:
The truth is that Oha, Nsala and Onugbu is Anambra soup

Okazi and ofe ugu is Imo

Achara soup is Abia

Nsala is more of Anambra and Delta Igbo soup

This is my experience

sassysure:
What happened to your other account?

Banned?

Apawicked:
go through the op's posts, she said ogiri is overrated, in trying to tell her onugbu&oha soup go with ogiri she took offence and escalated it to Anambrarians are bad, Biafra is bad, Anambrarians are supremacists, she rather run into a truck than run into Anambrarian. Tell me how she knew all that opposed her are from Anambra state? She has been so ashamed to tell her story with Anambrarians but I understand

Anambrarians are not nice to foolish girls like pocohantas

IDENNAA:
Yes , these dishes had spread across Igbo land but it didnt just simultaneously originated from everywhere same time. Ora ,ofe akwu, Onugbu and Nsala are ofe ogili and ogili is strictly an Anambra ingredient. Also , isi ewu and nkwobi is delicacy that originated from a certain ceremony in Anambra.

I know you want to unite your Igbo nation but you must not discredit people to do that.

24SEVEN:
That is Ikwerre-bini.

When you were a student, you really punished your teachers due to dullness.


A map showing, Abia was produced and the closest 12LGAs from boundary with Rivers State was picked and their land areas summarily calculated and tabulated and you're saying Rubbish.

Take a look at the map. From Ukwa West and Ukwa East upward to Umuahia North. Tell me what is Random about it.

HopeAtHand:
There has never been any basis for a direct comparison between Ikwerre and Igbo. It is unfair, unjust and immoral.

Infact, there should be no comparison between Igbo and any minority in Nigeria. If a contest should arise, should be between Igbos, Yoruba and Hausa. That Ikwerre is being compared to Igbo says alot about how Igbos keep themselves.

Funfact; Oyo state is almost same size as SE. So you see.
