One_Naira: You lived, schooled and dated in Ontisha but yet you couldn't muster a chance to ask an Ontisha their version of the story? I do not think I need anyone to inform me there is a lie among the midst.

As Onlytruth stated land dispute is common in every Nigerian group. Even in my community we have land dispute with our neighbors, but not once has anyone used those dispute as claim of hatred towards Igbo or other groups. No dude, you do not want to be wrong on this issue. You've already made up your mind and no amount of words and advice given to you will change that.

Carry on with your hatred towards Onitsha.

I did bros, I did. They all claim to be Igbo. Some say they are Igala but just a minority. When I deal with them I have no doubt they are Igbo. But, and this is a big but, they don't do things with the rest of us as per the examples I gave. Why?
I don't hate them. I'm just saying what I heard and saw and only wish to be enlightened further.
My girl's my called me "nwa onye igbo" in my face FFS. How do you want me to interprete that?

The problem with us Igbos is that we don't want to know our history. We just condemn anything we don't like and pretend it doesn't exist instead of calling it out and tackling it head front. We hope that if we ignore it, it will go away. Well, it doesn't. Our problems remain until we face them.

I have asked questions of/from both sides. Have you?

OK. Maybe I'm wrong. Time will tell.
Igbos might try to present a united front in nairaland but the truth is that there are very deep and raw divisions amongs us and until we address those, all these false indignations at hearing stuff will not get us anywhere.
Onlytruth, the best thing to do to fallacy is to disprove it which you haven't.

One_Naira, I lived in Onitsha, Went to school with Onitsha people, Had a shop in Onitsha, dated an Onitsha girl, Have gone to and slept in ogbe a lot of times. Helped two relations buy plots in Onitsha. I know Onitsha. We spoke to each other and we knew each other.
If you knew odoakpu, in fact from odoakpu upwards is considered as obosi town. Our seniors used to tell us that the Ede of Obosi used to live in odoakpu and that was his hometown before Onitsha people used their education and their relatioship with the clueless colonialists to claim those lands as theirs.

Please people ask around and prove me wrong. I want to be wrong on this issue. Really.

One_Naira: I won't even bother addressing all the other insult and lie you just descended to your fellow Igbo. This is just sad!!! Taa Tufiakwa

I'll just address the bolded: The Onitsha is nothing like what you speak. There isn’t any Onitsha on NL so they do not have the access to defend themselves against the accusation brought upon them on NL but I used to live in their community and I can attest, they do not hate other Igbo. They are very proud and I literally mean too proud of their Igbo identity, more proud than any Igbo group I’ve seen in my life, they are very ego-centric about it even, stay in ontisha for a week or two and you'll see that. Any Onitsha denying being Igbo is pretty much in a low percent, very low. Even Phillip Emegawali did not deny being Igbo neither did he say Onitsha are Yoruba (the title is very misleading, try reading the article first), he said I'm Yoruba by birth (gave definition of what he meant: Yoruba by birth because he was born in SW) and Igbo by heritage thus I ask you did he deny being Igbo? He followed the political term of today’s heritage. We have Nigerians that call themselves Nigerian-American, British-Nigerian, Canadian-Nigerian, etc. When asked what they meant they’ll reply I’m American, British, Canadian, etc. by birth but Nigerian by heritage. Do those kids deny being Nigerian of whatever ethnicity? I’ve seen Igbo kids that will tell you I’m Igbo-American and when asked they say my parents are Igbo thus I’m Igbo by heritage but I was born and raised in America therefore I’m American.

Have you ever been to Phillip Emegwali website before? He speaks of Igbo history, Igbo culture, Igbo descent, etc. a lot and the man is an Ex-Biafra solider (a child then so he was a cook). Una should try researching before jumping to conclusion. Also, try to travel and live within the group, the way umu ndi-Igbo believe the lie and divide and conquer tactics used on them is starting to scare me.

I agree with everything you said.
It is just that I have a different experience with Onitsha people. I used to date an onitsha girl and I won't even go into what her family (and mine) said about each other. The hatred was palpable. That was when I decided to do research and ask questions and things started coming up. Let us not hide our heads in the sand because we all speak igbo language. I gave specific examples which you haven't denied. I will list them.

1. No Onitsha indigene lives in fegge but they lease all fegge lands.
2. No onitsha indigene has a shop in main market nor head bridge.
3. Onitsha and Obosi still fight over land. (If you buy a plot in Onitsha, upper, expect to pay twice)
4. Onitsha and Nkpor still fight over land. (If you buy a plot in Onitsha, Awada side, etc expect to pay twice)

I do not deny that onitsha people fought in the biafran army. I mentioned ifeajuna who was from onitsha. However, tales from people that were actually in the war showed that Onitsha acts and sympathies during the way lay with Nigeria. I tend to believe those first hand tales, especially with things happening in Onitsha than naive unity propaganda.

Like you, I want all igbos to unite and if I didn't ask around I would never have realised the things that are brushed under the carpet. Please do a little research. I will give you a starting point: Ask MASSOB how many Onitsha indigenes are their members?

U don hear Yoruba accent before? una wey no sabi pronoune anything wey start with "H"...
WHy is it Yorubas have to start a sentence with "AAHHH"? Before tthey say a word they open their smelling ijebu mouth and say AHHH I ARVE seen the light, I ARVE come to collect my money make i go AAOUSE...

funny people

If that was the only thing their rotten mouth could not pronounce, that would have been tolerable.
Ask a yoruba man to pronounce something with a "v".
Have you heard them say their lord's prayer? "for efer and efer"

I have always had deep suspicion about the onitsha ado people. Their behaviours and cultures are very different from other igbos.
Like the Yorubas, they hate the rest of us.
Unlike igbos, you don't see them in business. They are mostly in white collar work like Yoruba.
Even zik's behaviour before during and after the war didn't sound like he had the interest of umu-igbo at heart.
Onitsha indigenes call others "nwa onye igbo". Meaning child of igbos. Onitsha people rarely identify with other igbos.
You won't find a shop in any of the major markets in onitsha owned by an onitsha indigene. Infact, they have been accused several times of setting fire to the markets. They treat other igbos in Onitsha as immigrants.
They are still fighting up till today with neighbouring Obosi and Nkpor over land ownership. They are accused of invading from across the river niger and taking over Obosi land, renaming it onitsha ado and are now reselling the plots back to igbos at exorbitant prices.
Their women are so promiscuous like the Yoruba ones.
Like the Yorubas, they practice incest and bury their dead chiefs with other humans.
They chased away igbos from onitsha when the federal troops were advancing and didn't join the igbo refugees nor partake in the war effort. Instead, they provided food, shelter and assistance to the Nigerian invading forces. Ifeajuna, an onitsha indigene, conived with banjo, a Yoruba backstabber, to betray the war effort in the west.
Maybe they are Yoruba afterall.

Amadioha will strike the OP to suggest that I have any remote connection with oily soup filled, brain-dead, useless, dirty, loud-mouthed pieces of shite of a tribe called Yoruba.
Cowardice impersonated. Betrayers of the highest order. Almajiris follow follow. The tribe of the crying generals. The tribe of the suicide politicians. The tribe of the self-confessed mass murdering genocidal nut job that shoots non living things. Ewu west. Subsidy beggars. Fulani slaves. Most under-developed region in the world. Smelly things. Useless parasites that do not contribute anything to the country.
Backstabbers.

Cursed be the OP for his post.
