my guy, you lie through the nose! there is no Igbo in Benue and Kogi; also, there is no Igala and Idoma indegenes in Enugu. you all should be contented in your landlocked erosion riden biafra land.

also there are fulani minorities in Imo, why haven't you talked about that?

Those kids are the most pathetic creatures I've ever seen. Imagine claiming there are indigenous Igbos in Benue state.

Yet these are the same people that wanted to kickstart world war III when claims were made there are practicing Igbos muslims.

They want to one to dilute what they believe belongs to them, yet they go about coveting other people's lands.

Nonsense.

Just look at the hate oozing from some people's hearts. I wonder how one is able to live with themselves carrying such yoke around.

Eyaa.

This Gov Umahi of Ebonyi state seems the best gov any South Eastern state has ever had since 1999.

God bless Gov David Nweze Umahi of Ebonyi state.

Dude seems quite reasonable. Perhaps they should start prepping him for bigger task ahead at the center. Sadly, his very own people will start calling him a slave, once he makes any moves to build bridges and allies across the country.

I wish PDP would give him their ticket come 2023, folks like me wouldnt even mind rooting for him.

Good for him.

None of my business though.

I told them all their plans will fall flat at the feet of truth and honesty, just like they did the last time Buhari was away on medical grounds. There was virtually nothing pdp henchmen and their supporters didn't say or do to cause bad blood between Osinbajo and his boss, all of which failed woefully.

Warming up to 2023, they've put forward the likes of Reno and co to reinvent a beef that never was, and just like the last time, it has come crashing like a building under impact of a wrecking ball.

Pdp, this nonsense isnt opposition. You need to review your strategy.

RichDad1:
Let’s hear what the same people that usually branded Buhari as a dictator and intolerant has got to say on this.

You will have to wait until the third coming of Jesus Christ.

Very arrogant and shameless hypocrites.

gidgiddy:
Chairman of Oju local government is an Igbo man called Austin Ochi

Chairman of Okpokwu LGA is an Igbo man called Olofu Oguche.

Igbos are indigenous to Okpokwu, Oju and Obi LGA's of Benue state

Chairman of MY LOCAL GOVERNMENT IS AN IGBO MAN!!!??

Igbos Indiginous to Oju!!??

Jeez.

And what the hell is OGUCHE?? You make such outlandish claims yet even the name you guys cant spell correctly! Why are you people like this?

This is the hight of it!!! Madness on steroids!! I give up.

God forbid!

dokyOloye:
I gave you d name of local govt,name of d communities but you prefer to wallow in your typical zombie sloganeering.
Here's another one.

Only an incorrigible punk would think saying a good number of people living living in a place implies that they're indigenous to such a place.

Only a matter of time before you claim you people are indigenous to Lagos and Kano since alot of your brothers live there.

Yet he calls others zombies.

If you want to see an illiterate zombie, look in the mirror and make a sketch of the image you see staring back at you.

Benue belongs to the people of Benue and Igbos arent one of those people. Deal with it.

dokyOloye:
you are supremely ignorant on this.
There are indigenous Ezza speaking communities in Okpokwu Local govt of Benue state.
They comprise of Umezeokoha,Umuezeoka and some other clans which you also find in Ezza North LGA of Ebonyi.
I think they even have a ward they produce councilors(not sure).
Don't even doubt this,my girlfriend served there and schooled in Ebonyi though she's not an Ebonyian, so she was pleasantly surprised to see them there.

You people should stop plastering this trash everywhere trying to make it stick. IT WILL NEVER STICK.

Imagine after the false claims, you guys have now started extrapolating to claim they produced q ward counciller!! Imagine the shameless lies.

What is the name of the councillor? Honourable Nobody?

Why cant you lot present even a leaflet of evidence, say, a historical document, that back up your claims, rather than some fictitious newspaper publication which, by the way doesnt even support your claims?

You lot should be ashamed of yourselves!!

You arent from Benue. Stop forcing yourselves on Benue.

Uncle, have you given Deji his money yet?

Yahoo yahoo activist.

NwaAmaikpe:



This subliminal post from Arsenal is a very disrespectful one and it takes a discerning mind to see its meaning.
Of all the possible pidgin words why will they choose

"Chei, abeg commot for road"

Who did Nigerians offend that globally we are treated like lepers?

We are not wanted anywhere.
Not in Ghana
Not in South Africa
Not in USA
Not in Thailand

And now not in Arsenal.
Shame on the Buhari-led administration for making the once giant of Africa, the laughing stock of the world.

You are trying too hard. Give it a rest.

Na our leaders just dey mess this sweet country up.

Kanu Nwakwo is the greatest Nigerian player EVER!

Argue with your keypad if you disagree.

Neither are there in Benue state.

Folks should stop spreading lies on the internet.

extremelygolden:
@Op, your write-up is educative but the information about Cross River State is not complete.

CRS has more than 50 languages. In fact, it's like every community speaking their own different language.

Yala is one of the major languages spoken amongst the Yahe, Okpoma, Okuku, etc people.

We also have the Ishibori people, etc.

Boki is also a major language in Cross River State.

Yes, the Idoma part of Benue State speaks Yala, but Yala people occupy a larger population in Cross River State.

And the lingua franca of the state is Pigin English.

You tried, jare. E no easy.

Also have Igedes in Oprikwu, Anyadaha, and Igbakobo axis.

They are mostly immigrants from Oju LGA of Benue state and have occupied those places for over 200 years.

Folks dont know history around here.

somehow:
Indigene? Which town are his parents from in Edo state? which village? what is their compound name?

That guy and that mrvitakis orbwhatever he calls himself, are running wild making wild claims on the thread. Perhaps it's time one simply ignored them.

mrvitalis:
No body would force u to see the truth .....an LGA official accept they are igbos and indigenous your opinion is important ...facts is there are Igbo's in benue if u like kill ur self I can't change that

Trash. You're rather the one trying to force yourself on Benue.

We reject your claims in TOTALITY!!

Isnt it suspicious even to you that you couldn't find a SINGLE historical document to support your claims?

Shame on you.

umuna:
You zip your mouth! it is ikwerre language and not igbo. it is only those biafrud that will be claiming what is not in other states. Stay in your land locked state please. it is pronouced oyingbo and not oyibo! get that into that your thick skull! you guys have rushed into these LGA to claim that they are Igbos.

That dude is just going around claiming all states as indigenous to Igbos.

I have no problem with that though, but he should keep Benue out of his claims. As long as he does that, he can claim America and I couldn't care less.

murphyibiam15:
at emboldened, they were dispersed during state creation meaning they're Benue indigenes and Igbo, so they're are igbos in Benue..how do you even understand something??

Imagine! So suppositions and assumptions and not FACTS is what you guys are relying on to make your case.

How disappointing.

Not a shred of historical document to prove your case.

When you guys claim you are Jews, you manage to present a document or two to make your case. But when it comes to your claims over Benue, it becomes an impossible task to execute showing proof!

Isnt that amazing?

lomprico:
it does not matter who.used it first. at least you know that people in benue n Enugu bear it, thus your proof that idoma are in Enugu and igbo in benue.

Mtscheeew. Very lame.

Expected.

Next.

mrvitalis:
Did u read the articles or u just decided to rush n quote

[/b]In Nweke’s words: “The Igbos in Benue State particularly those in Ado, Oju, Obi and Okpoku LGAs of the state were in existence before the advent of Christian religion in Nigeria.

The Igbo found in Benue are: Umuezeokoha, Umuezeoka, Oriuzor, Umuoghara, Amaekka and Amaezekwe all in Ezza communities, Izzi, Ezzamgbo and Effium, these are the people who would have been in present-day Ebonyi State but due for the fact that the Nigerian government then carved us into Benue in[b]

Did u read this part

Shabi u said u know the area like ur hand oya talk

Did you read the part they said these people are dispersed from Ebonyi?

Why are you forcing yourself not to see what is contsin3dnin yournown link? One of you said those places are in Apa, WHICH IS A BIG FAT LIE!! NO SUCH PLACES EXIST IN APA!

You guys are talking about indigenous tribes and the best you can come up with is a SINGLE NEWSPAPER PUBLICATION WHICH IS JUST ANCOPLE OF YEARS OLD!!

What about showing us some historical documents?

If I say you guys are pathological liars now, youd imagine that is an insult.

You should be ashamed of yourselves.

NORSYK:
Umuezeokoha,
Apa Ogbozu, Umuezeoka, Oriuzor, Umuoghara, Amaekka, Amaezekwe

The above mentioned communities are all in Benue state

You are a bloody LIAR!! No such places exist in Apa!

Shame on you.

murphyibiam15:
https://thenationonlineng.net/agony-igbos-benue/

Did you even read what was written there or you simply copied the link provided by your brother?

Go read the reply I gave him.

Nonsense.

Thought you guys have something better to show me as proof, maybe, some historical document. Such a shame all you could do is rely on The nation, a newspaper you guys love to hate.

Go read what is written there and enlighten yourselves. Nowhere is it stated in the said link that they are indigenous to Benue. They were dispersed from Ebonyi it said.

Sure you guys are confused

mrvitalis:
https://www.google.com/amp/s/thenationonlineng.net/agony-igbos-benue/amp/ read n learn every information u want is there except u want to lie to your self

Even in your link (even though it's a source you people ALWAYS CONDEMN AS LAGOS IBADAN EXPRESS MEDIA), here is what was written:

feanyi does not expressly condemn their inclusion in Benue State, be he said if the other ethnic groups do not want them in Benue, the Federal Government should set up a machinery immediately to return them to their kith and kin in the Southeast, particularly Ebonyi State.

They belong to Ebonyi and NOT Benue.

Stop forcing yourselves on Benue state!!

lomprico:
hope you know omenka is an igbo name?

What makes Omenka an Igbo name? What makes you think Igbos arent the ones that borrowed it from us instead? What proof do you have Igbos were the first to bear it?

Una dey provoke me this night honestly.

murphyibiam15:
obi, oju LGAs

Where in Obi and Oju? I know both areas like the back of my palm! Where!!

Is it Ito? Obarike Ito? Okpowku? Uwokwu? Iprikwu? Ikachi? Ibila? Etc. Where?

I ready for una lies this night.

murphyibiam15:
they're native umuezolekonna(Ezza) people in Benue who are 100% Igbo that should have been in Ebonyi that were included in Benue..I think that's where the igbos in Benue come from, you can verify..gracias

Oga!!! Where in Benue? What part of Benue??

RichDad1:
You inconsistencies is making you sound like a mentally challenged person. Get well soon.

That guy has completely lost it. Hatred has eaten up every ounce of living cell he once had in his brain. What is left of it can hardly be called a brain.

Shame.

Here comes Obi again.

Didnt say he's a liar o.

Just said here he comes again.
