The truth has to be said. I've come across different Ika people that claim and disclaim being Igbo and i don't fault any of them because anyone can choose to call himself whatever. Note that Igbo is an ethnicity and not a tribe. Meaning that it's a combination of people from different tribes who speak different dialects of the same language(Igbo). Ethnicity is more like an association rather than lineage. There's nothing wrong with saying Ika is Igbo and there's also nothing wrong with saying they are not. It's the people that make up Ikaland that can determine what they should be called and not any Ika organization or whoever. Agboetan says he's not Igbo, so let's beleive him. He has a reason for saying that. But what gets people annoyed is when you try to put all Ika people in the same basket.

@ Agboetan
Mind you, most of those prominent Ika people you mentioned are classified as Igbo by Nigerians and they've not for once denied being Igbo. And i never knew Hanks Anuku was Ika. I loved the Igbo he spoke in a movie title Derico.

Hanks Anuku is Ika, and even from the famous owa kingdom?

Christ! I would never had thought that.

All his mannerisms are Igbo, despite his American accent.

I think there's something Igbo about Ika that some folks are trying to hide.

To digress a bit, does Ikaland have oil? That's usually the catalyst for Igbo denial.

Coming 2015/2019 Fashola must win unless there will be no progress for this country

What about Sambo in 2015, I thought your folks wanted to field him?

Does it mean the North is gradually being relegated in Nigerian politics?

I tire o. This 'love' for Igbo people sef.

We must be the most interesting people in Nigeria. Like it or not.

It must be really boring to be non-Igbo, if Igbos are this interesting that everyone wants to talk about them. And carry Igbo people's headace on their head.

At least, the myth that Igbo dont ever unite has been busted.

God bless Ohaneze!

It seems the armed bandits are done with their 'vacation' in Ogun and are back again in Lagos.

Robbers yesterday in Lagos killed
four soldiers attached to OPs
MESA. Details of the attack were
sketchy at press time, but
sources said the soldiers were on
routine patrol at Afro media and
environs when the hoodlums
opened fire on them killing four
occupants of the patrol van on
the spot.

The bandits were said to have
comfortably alighted from their
vehicles, collected the fallen
soldiers ’ rifles and ammunition
and shot their way to escape.

The new Police Public Relations
Officer, Mr. Samuel Jinadu could
not be reached, but a source
close to his office which
confirmed the attack said the
armed robbers laid ambush
against the soldiers. “From what
I was told, the soldiers attached
to OPs MESA were responding to
a distress somewhere at Afro-
Media when they ran into an
ambush by the hoodlums. They
opened sporadic fire on the
patrol van killing four of them
on the spot. They collected their
arms and ammunition. ”

It was also not possible to
ascertain whether any of
occupant of the patrol van
survived the attacked but
sources said the remains of the
killed soldiers have been
deposited in the mortuary for
autopsy.

We really have no business being together in one country. Nigeria was a failed project from the word go.

I wonder the kind of old woman the OP is going to turn into. Possibly a witch.
