Mtcheww.
I can see you didn't my first post. The one that brought this conversation.
You expect me to sit and discuss warrant chief stupidity with you?
Which part of "their establishment signifies the day Ndigbo lost their independence" did you not understand?
Go and learn how Igbo Political organisation was before the establishment of that Abomination
As for that Enugu warrant chief, he has no domain. That place belongs to the people not him. All of them lack the cultural backing for the stupidity they did with British help.
I am done with you
Well if you talk about the day igbos lost their independence then equal it with the day Africa and the thousands of ethnic groups and tribes lost their independence to colonial rule cause they changed everything,

And I still repeat without the intervention of the colonists, what we know as a United igbo nation won't be today, many igbo clans could have turned into different nation and countries by now, the way arochukwu Confederacy was growing I believe they could have conquered most smaller clans and ethnic groups all the way to South East Cameroon and made it into one nation

The bini's could have conquered the entire niger Delta and made it one nation

The sokoto caliphate would have conquered the North as some part of yoruba land

And the Oyo empire could have conquered Southwest and parts of Benin Republic

Igbo nation won't have existed

Let's get one thing right, no community in Anambra ever paid tributes to Onicha. Onicha never practiced monarchy nor held a venerated position in Anambra until the whites arrived and they got education. In fact, Eze Nri was receiving tributes from Ndi Onicha. Remember Onicha went through acculturation upon arrival to Anambra. They didn't build an influential society. Aguleri's, Awka and Umudioka were more influential than Onicha during precolonial days. Onicha influential with Ofala , Otu odu started with the coming of the whites and its all because of their location at River Niger.
So what point are you making here exactly? I'm saying same thing, there was no such thing as a unified igbo country, igbo clans who were stronger received tributes from smaller clans, there was no time igbos were one nation till the colonists arrived

Then explain how the names of these communities came to place
Odenigbo
Akwukwu-Igbo
Igbo-Ụzọ
Igbo-Ukwu
Igbo-Akiri
ỤmụIgbo
Ama-Igbo
To list a few.

Its better to avoid things you know nothing about than proving it by diving into it. You could have said that the British Created Igbo people like the way Christians say God created Adam and Eve.
The few names I listed above are in the four corners of Igboland. One (Ámá-Igbo) is at the center. I specifically chose them out of the numerous towns having Igbo to their name
Still you are missing the point, I never said the igbos were not related the were related, clans who started of as brothers migrated to different places and settle which it's obvious from the names, but there was no time the igbos came together to say yes this is us igbos as a nation or country like you are insisting on, the colonists finding it hard to control the igbos like the did the yoruba's and Hausa's igala, bini's found a way to unite the igbos they couldn't do it as a unified Mornachy but created chiefdoms and through these chiefs United the igbos holding meetings with them occasionally that's how it happened, such thing was never there, there were different nation and kingdom in what the colonists unified as one, which I gave you example of Onitsha, arochukwu Confederacy

I'm an igbo subgroup of the waawa people in Enugu, read what happened between a man called onyeama which the colonists made him a warrant chief, in one of those meetings he confronted the obi of Onitsha who was regarded as a powerful igbo king in those days and became angry that the obi of Onitsha was sitting on the highest seat of honor in a meeting held in his own domain in Enugu , that's how hard the colonists worked to unite the igbos

Who and who were paying tributes to Igala, I hope you are not referring to Anambra towns. Nri settlements and related Anambra communities only paid tributes and homage to Eze Nri. Get your facts right.
A lot of smaller igbo clans paid tribute to bigger and stronger clans and even other kingdom, all the people who were later called western igbos by the colonists paid tribute to the bini empire, some smaller clans around Onitsha paid tributes to the obi of Onitsha, same with those around the igala kingdom same with those around arochukwu

Igbo Union started when Ndigbo found themselves in Nigeria.
In Igboland, there is no basis for Igbo Union, so such never existed. This is one problem Ikwerre people have with Ndigbo. To them they see it as a big deal that Igbo union exists in Ikwerre land but not in any other part of Igboland.
As for Ndigbo being mould together, it is total Fallacy. Can you prove it?
The British trader with Ndigbo for decades before they invaded in 1850. They never met Igboland and invaded the same year. Do your research
In all those years, they said what they saw which is "Ibo country"
And please whenever you want to talk about Igbo history, resist the temptations of involving war and conquests because unlike you Nigerians, it is not part of our culture or history. It rarely happens.
Igbo country was an economic hub with commercial activities. All European Powers that visited it like the Portuguese noted it (Portuguese came 300 years before Britain)

Igbo history is described by the main Business Ndigbo controlled. Like Nri, Arọ Confederacy was based on spirituality and Business alone not conquests.
Can you prove that the igbos were one? My friend the igbos never referered to themselves as a United people, they identified themselves with their clans and kingdoms, the colonists for yrs studied the igbos and discovered their similarities and lumped them together as one anytime they were given reports about them, a man from arochukwu never saw himself as one with someone from Onitsha kingdom these were two different people

Go back to my first reply, it answered your question.
It answered your question. Igala never ruled any part of Igboland (all those things are make believe history) though I won't doubt that there are Igala people in Igboland whose circumstances of being here is never if that of Conquerors but otherwise. If you know any Igala historian, beg him to tell you about Mgbo clan, Ezza, Nike and obolo.

Igala also lacked the knowledge of metal smiting, It was their encounter with Nike that Igala understood what Iron signifies in warfare. Till date, they are still scared of them. Metal works got to Igala land through Aguleri axis, courtesy of Awka Black smiths.
Bini only had influence over Ika and nothing more. Ndigbo, especially Awka people are still in far away Akoko Ẹdo, Etsako and Esan. Ask the indigenes
You are sketching around the main point that igbos were molded together to become one by the colonists, igbo union started with the colonial masters who did everything possible to unite the igbos in a way it will be possible to countrol them like it was in the North and amongst the yoruba's for this singular reason they created the warrant chiefs, this are facts as long as igbo unity is concerned the colonists made that happen

LOL.
Igbo was a country before they came (this is something you will dig out yourself if you want to know).
Like they said "the people of the river banks have no knowledge of iron smelting, so we have to rely on Ibo country for most of our iron works"

Ever wonder why out of the entire groups in Nigeria, only Igbo have the name of their country attached to most of the community names.
You are missing the point
Ibo country was a phrase the colonists used to mold the igbos into one piece they were never one, arochukwu Confederacy was like a country of its own, Onitsha was like a kingdom of its own, other smaller clans were under the igala kingdom paying tributes to them, other clans were under the bini empire paying tributes to them, the white man was the one that toured the entire region and discovered their similarities in linguistic and culture then molded them in one piece as an igbo country

No.
They spotted for difference where there was none. They were the ones that created such consciousness.
They explored to bring out what will divide than unite. Read about accounts from people that met Igboland before the useless warrant chiefs. Igboland was known as a country were any can migrate and be assimilated into another, that's why almost all paid no attention to history of founding of the settlements. So far you can adhere to the rules the settlements, you are indigene.
What Britain attempted to do was to create feudal Lords who will be interested in fighting others for power but it didn't work. Their warrant chiefs were more interested in oppressing, over taxing and marrying lots of women than power. So they abolished it but the consciousness have been sown. That's why the places (Ika, Ikwerre etc) you mentioned rely on one man today to decide who they are despite glaring clues. If they were still practicing Igbo Republican System, one man denying his identity won't matter because it will be believed that his own is the one that is not than the entire group.
Do you now understand it?
There was no unified igbo identity, the colonial masters were the one's that molded that igbo identity and lumped it into one piece, igbos were not one, clans fought each other and enslaved each other , the colonial masters did the igbos more good than harm in that aspect

There they are, The warrant chiefs imposed on Ndigbo by the military regime in 1978. A move known as The return of the warrant chiefs.

The Sell outs were created by the British in mid 19th century and officially abolished by the same British in 1929.
Reintroduced by the Shameless Nnamdi Azikiwe of NCNC in 1950. Then constitutionally imposed by the Military Regime of Nigeria with "edict No 22 of 1978 titled Chieftaincy edict" to signify Conquest of Igboland . In other words, they are commissioned by the FG, that's why they can't contribute to anything to move Igboland forward but sabotage. They represent the FG and are as well civil servants under direct control of the state Government, that's why Obiano can sack 20 of them in a day and nothing will happen.

It is worthy to note that it is internationally known that Ndigbo lost their independence the very day Britain created and imposed Warrant Chiefs on them (around 1850).

NDIGBO KNOW YOUR HISTORY
On the bold, the British did the igbos more good than harm in that aspect , cause they helped unite the igbos under one ethnicity if they didn't do that, today we wouldn't be here talking of Ndigbo as one , rather we would be talking about arochukwu, Onitsha, wawa Anioma, Ngwa, , Ezza, Ibeku, Ohuhu, Ikwerre, the Ogba, the Omuma, the Ohafia, the Obigbo, Mbaise, Ekpeye etc as different tribes and ethnic groups, even with that you see how the ikwerre's ika's and some anioma's are pulling out of the Union.
