RevDesm0ndJuju: According to a widely known account of the Arochuchukwu origin, the present land of Arochukwu was occupied initially by the Ibibio people who migrated to the area around 300 AD from the Benue valley, they founded the settlement of Obong Okon Ita and Ibom.
Several years later, the first Igbo tribe led by one Agwu Inobia arrived and penetrated the Ibibio territory and founded his own settlement.
As we see among divergent groups domiciled in one area, fights are bound to happen – it soon ensued between the Igbo clan who referred to themselves as the Eze-Agwu clan, and their Ibibio landlords over the age-long issue of land. The communal clash went back and forth.

A similar pattern of conquest through mass migration was used by Ibo clans to choke Onistha out of its original Bini and Igala population.
A similar attempt was made on places such as Rivers until the civil war outbreak and final Ibo expulsion out of the state.
In Delta similar mass migration and settlement of Ibos is gradually taken over Asaba. In a few years from now the Ibos will wake up and tell their host that they are the original owners of the land through shear population strength and dominance just as they did in places like Onistha and present day Abia. A desperate attempt to seize Lagos is ongoing.
This conquest via mass migration and settlement is a similar tactic deployed by Muslims and Jews alike to steal territory.
One Zikist Nijeriya is a tactic used to the fullest by the Ibo in their mass settlement and eventual false claims to another man's land.
Once in significant numbers, the Ibo will first claim the territory is free for all aka No Man's land just as they did in Sabo Garin, Kano and which they are doing for places like Lagos as a whole, Asaba and PH.
Only the people of Kano have been able to implant it permanently into 0koro skulls that , their city is not a free tribal zone.
SS, doesn't interested in anything Igbo cos anything from there is cursed.
NLandIsHypocrit: Barely two months ago you joined Nairaland, you're already dancing naked in the public. Must you quote me to advertise your idiocy? You couldn't even make a single sentence on the topic so we can gage your big boy reasoning.
I have 10 account with nairaland you're the kid here
NLandIsHypocrit: This is someone I asked for a relationship she didn't find me interesting to go along with, I even told her I'm not primarily interested in sx stuff (because she was still a virgin), some people may say how do I know, but I tell you I'm extremely sure, I offered to take care of her so long as she agrees to be my girl, instead she ignored me to follow one wayward guy who could hardly afford his boxers; I zeroed my mind about her until she got pregnant and the mummy's pet that got her pregnant abandoned her and ran away. I have not communicated to her since over two years now until she chat me up recently and you could see our conversation below after which she blocked me....
[MODIFIED] Please bare with me, Nairaland refuse to allow me post the screenshots of our conversation in the name of checking what ever source.
Ok let me try and summarize our conversation. She: Good morning
Me: Happy weekend
She: I wish you d same too
She: I have a small issue oo
Me: Ok
She: My phone is bad I need to fix it
Me: Ok, So?
She: I need like 20k to fix it can you help me
Me: Yes, if only you were close
She: Let me fix the phone first then we can talk about coming over to see you
Me: Ok
She: Are you sending the money
Me: Just fix the phone first then we can talk
She: Where do you want me to get the money from
Me: Where have you been getting money from
She: What kind of stupid question is that
She: Just get out you fool
Then she blocks me.
Please how did I offend her, or was I wicked to her based on our conversation?
gidgiddy: They migrated their and claimed other peoples land? Its not possible to migrate somewhere and claim it, without war. At no time did Igbos fight such war of conquest, thats what Bini were known for
How many Edo, Benin, have you seen residing in south east?
Igbo inter marry with the riverine people of the Delta after their migration doesn't make them indigen we all know that they are immigrants.
Rolings: Igbos go start revisionism Start insulting others.....attempt to distort their history and evidently trying to rewrite the history of the civil war.....and when others resist the igbo action as poking a needle in their eyes..... they become igbo haters
Igbos want to hate you and don't want you to hate them back.......who be mumu
Igbos don't share anything in common with igalas....but all Biafra map includes igala land and idoma land.. so why the attempt to make igbanike an igboland. All igbos living in western igboland across the river Niger are not indigenous to those places..they migrated there and claimed other people's land . So if the real owners of the land are now resisting your thievery.....it's not igbo hatred but natural justice.
This people's doesn't know that anyone that claim he or she is Igbo and same time claiming to be indigen of SS is immigrant.
I pity those who will fall this time for nothing in the name of Igbo in another man's land.
Wutinky: I know you wish this people are your people, I can feel your pain, do you know I get joy seeing you in this kind agony and pain? As e dey you pain you..... e dey sweet us Igbos baje baje !!!!!
Igbo need to grow up cos even 200 years to come this your inferior and desire for other tribes land will keep you opt into primitives conditions just as it's happening today
mdimefields: I love what is happening in Delta Igbo, including Igbanke in Edo plus other Igbo speaking areas. The unification of Igbos will happen in our lifetime. Even if you sacrifice your head to your local gods, you cannot stop it. It is a natural order. Anioma state on the making soon.
That land belong to natives of Edo, Delta not Igbo speaking, you think you can cross from Anambra state and start claiming Edo and natives Delta land.
gidgiddy: Thats what I dont get about these people. Igbos go to people they have a lot in common with such as language and culture. But these Binis and Ijaws are trying to take those they have nothing in common with, wether language or culture.
Igbanke just celebrated their 'Iwa-gi', Igbos also celebrate the same thing although they call theres 'Iwa-Ji', a difference of one letter. Yet the Bini man who knows nothing about 'Iwa-gi' is saying Igbanke people are from him. Igbanke speaks a dialect of Igbo, practice the same culture. And when this guy goes to people he has a lot in common with, Bini people will be shouting he has come to force them to be Igbo
Jokers everywhere
You that and Igbo are forcing themselves on SS as Igbo Biafra since the time of adaka boro
mdimefields: Since the video of tha Igbanke Chief in Edo debunking Bini origin these guys went on rampage. They have made series of videos. The people of Igbnake said they are not bini but Ika and in extension Igbos, so why the fuse> Having been in the same region and state does not translates to belonging to the same ethnic group. How can you claim people you dont speak same language with, not even same culture. What is wrong with Nigerians and Igbo hate. Remove Igbo hate from Nigeria and watch the country progress. I will advice Chukwuemeka to contact Senator Ned Nwoko... He should not take those threats kindly.
You cross from Anambra state south east Igbo as a migrants to other territory and started claiming to be descendents of that place just to claimed their land, Benin, Edo, Delta no be Yoruba.
attackgat: Mr Chukwuemeka is an indigene of Mbieri in Imo State. He is also a journalist and proprietor of Nnamehn Tv that espouses the "Unify Igbos Now" project. Basically, what Chukwuemeka does is to visit Igbo speaking areas outside the South East to relate and discuss their Igboness, and interview the indigenes
So far, he has been to Ika in Delta State, Igbanke in Edo, Oha-obu in Akwa Ibom, Obigbo, Ndoki, Etche, Ahoada, Ikwerre in Rivers and many more
However, Chukwuemeka has come under a barrage of online attacks, not from the people he visits, but from mainly Ijaw and Bini elements who are claiming that the places he is visiting are their territory. The Binis are claiming that all the Igbo speaking areas of Delta state, as well as Igbanke and Ikwerre, are their Descendants, and are thereforr Bini people, while the Ijaws are claiming that much of the Igbo speaking people of Rivers state such as Ndoki, Egbema, Etche, Omuma and even Oha-obu in Akwa-Ibom are their descendants.
They have threatened Chukwuemeka's life, reported his channel for hate speech when he never used hate, claimed that he was distorting history and forcing people to become Igbo
Chukwuemeka took to his YouTube channel in the video below to question why people are threatening his life just because he goes to interview people he shares language and cultural affinity with. He wondered how he is forcing people to be Igbo when he only has a microphone and Camera.
Vixlot: Victor Banjo was a Nigerian army officer and a significant military leader on the Biafran side. He played a crucial role in the early stages of the Nigerian Civil War, particularly in the eastern region of Nigeria where the secessionist Biafran state was declared.
Banjo was one of the key figures in the planning and execution of the Biafran invasion of the Mid-Western Region of Nigeria, which took place in August 1967. However, this offensive was ultimately unsuccessful for the Biafran forces.
Banjo was later accused of conspiracy and subsequently executed by the Biafran government in September 1967. His role and actions during the Nigerian Civil War remain a subject of historical study and discussion.
He was a betrayal for fighting for Igbo against nigeria not knowing that Igbo can't trust anyone since they can't trust themselves
Razgas: This is not evidence, just concocted history. Show me a newspaper publication before the war that is unambiguous and shows Ikwere dissociating from Igbos.
Wike said ikwerre are not Igbo,na force him to accept your tribe naa
flokii: To the typical Igbos.. what is theirs is strictly theirs, but what is yours becomes ours.
They didn't remember biafra when they pushed Obi forward to contest in presidential election, but the moment they lost out, they suddenly don't want to be Nigerians anymore.
Na those wey dey give them face cause am.
If you want biafra, you'll pack all your things back to the East and declare your republic there.
PaulNwosu: Dominating which economy? Go and see how the South East states were struggling to raise ordinary 1 Billion each during covid.
Last week, Forbes released list of dollar Billionaires in Nigeria. No Igbo there. Instead of facing business, you are body making enemies on behalf of Ndigbo. If those people react now, you shortsighted fools start crying.
Leave them, no. You must talk rubbish. As if you are under a curse.
They thought that because of inter marry will automatically would make them achieve their claims, I pity Igbo people.
