Afam4eva:
The confusion starts from the lumping of the whole of Igboid Delta state as Anioma. Youre more likely to see someone from the Ika and Ukwuani axis deny being Igbo than say the Aniocha axis. For instance, the OP is most likely from Ika or Ukwuani. They are the ones who carry the whole Anioma not Igbo on their head.
I agree with you, the guy is from Aniocha.

It's likely the Ika-Igbo speaking parts of Edo state.
The Igbankes( formerly Igbo- Akiri) being the largest and then the Ekpon( Uwa Elderson Echiejile is from Ekpon), Inyelen, Irun, etc.

They speak a form of Igbo language that has been corrupted by many Edo words from their Edo neighbors, but the language remain essentially Igbo.
What I heard is not essentially Igbo, seriously it was more of Benin. About 2/3 of the words I heard were Benin. I don't understand Igbo and I do Benin, I know what I am saying.

Can we let this Anioma not Igbo issue rest pls ? I am Anioma from issele uku to be precise and I see myself as Igbo... Don't know why we continue arguing over this... Even the so called south east igbos they all still have variance in dialects.. If u say am not Igbo who am I then ? Yoruba or Hausa Abi ? I truly believe those who argue this are neither from Anioma. Even Yorubas have variance also as the variance in ilorin is different from what is spoken Lagos but you will never see any of these people deny being Yorubas... Pls let's allow this issue rest. Anioma is Igbo !
Thanks for your submission, Anioma is not a language. But the whole issue is confusing to me. I grew up in Benin and I was able to interact with many people from Anioma. Two of my neighbours were from Agbor they don't call themselves igbos, same with my mum friend from ukuale. Also I have met people from Anioma who call themselves igbo. There was a guy that I thought was from south east for many years, only recently he told me he is from Anioma. Why is it so? I am just asking to learn.

thats just 1 part of Anioma u encountered. Same Anioma some peeps here call igbo
I just want to know which group was that, thanks.

coz u hear a fraction of an Anioma language (possibly the Aniocha-Oshimili) does nt determine the language of the whole Anioma.
Have u heard the Ika or the Ebu language?
I bet u, u wuldnt wanna try hearing that coz even in ur dreams Anioma aint Igbo
I once saw some people speaking in benin, at first I thought they were speaking benin, later it seems they turned to igbo, then again benin. Which part of Anioma are they?

Most christians have been duped into believing that Jews are what they claim they really are. They are nothing without the support of the US which happens to be a vassal state to the Jews, who controls the money and the media over there.
Israel got its nose bloodied by hezzbollah in 2006 and will think twice before taking on them anytime soon.

What about sanctions most of those tanks and aircrafts are old or refurbished soviet era planes. Their major strength is in their unknown missile capabilities.
The sanctions was more of a blessing than curse to them. They started producing their own military hardwares when America refuse to sell them weapons and spare parts during their war with Iraq. And after that their has been no going back. They produce their own tanks, fighter jets, drones, sub marines and even destroyers. Their home made anti tank weapons they supplied to hizbullah coursed serious problems to Israel.
PoliticsRe: 15 Most Powerful Armies In The Middle East Of The World by phyllosilicate(m): 10:45am On Jul 11, 2015
Iran has unknown capabilities, they manufacture their own tanks, long and short range missile,missile defence system, topendoes, sub marines, fighter jets and warships. On like the others that buy from russia and America, thought they may buy superior weapons, but the countries that sold them the weapons no their strengths, weak points and our to neutralise them. But Iran's capability can only be guessed. Till today America don't know how the brought down their most advance spy drone down from the sky without even firing a shot. They took control of the drone in the sky, landed it with minimal damage. This is the power of home made technology, nobody know what you have.

The only reason why U.S hasn't attack Iran is because Iran is a sovereign state, and they still have no sufficient proof that Iran is doin nuclear enrichment. What happen with Iraq was an eye opener to the world and they wouldn't want to repeat such.
Sovereign state ko, Sovereign state ni, Cuba, Lybia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam and all other state America bomb at will were not Sovereign state shabi?

You are totally wrong.

Infact Israel is pushing the United States to attack Iran. The United States does not care about the Iranian nuclear program at first, it was Israel who feel threaten by it and raised the issue and they have been pushing the States to attack them since they can't do it themselves.

Do you know how many Iranian nuclear scientists have been killed by Israel? The United States seems to be the only country that can dismantle their nuclear program because of how it was built. Infact, Israel would have attacked them if they can the same way they dismantled the nuclear program of Iraq. Look i respect Israel for one thing and is bravery: Israel will attack you if you pose threat to it, but in the case of iran it is suicide for them and they know it.
Some people just come here to talk because they have read some religious bulletins. They no nothing of what is going on. The reason why Israel is strong is because of America period. America has been pursing a policy of Israel military dominance in the middle east. America give their latest military hardwares to Israel free of charge and ensure its neighbours always get substandard weapons. Even the time Israel bomb Iraq, at that time Sadam was weak because of the military embargo america impose on him. Sadam fought two bloody wars first with Iran and secondly with America during the first gulf war. His military was very weak and he couldn't buy replacement. Both about iran, they producing their own weapons themselves. The day I respected them was when they brought down America most advance stealth drone down without firing a shot. Even Americans are afraid to fight Iran. The reasons America hasn't bomb Iran nuclear facility is because they told America point blank: if you try it, we would destroy all your bases in middle east and rain shahab 3 missiles in Televiv. Even war hungry George Bush didn't dare them.

See the Jews re highly intelligent.. If we had that intelligence and craft won't we do worse
Plus we know they re little in population
Here you go again, believing another race is more intelligent than you. Another lie told is that the Jews are super intelligence. My question is, what came out of the Jewish civilisation? Was there even one? Intelligent people left marks on the earth, we can see what the Egyptians did, the Chinese did, what the Arabs did, what the Persians did, the land mark of African moors are still in Europe for the world to see. What did the Jews do?

The land of God that nobody can conquer, but the Egyptians enslaved them, the Romans came, whooped their ass, Hitler sprang up and slaughtered them like chickens for years in different countries. Yet, they are invincible... Funny. They'd better not lose their ties with the US of A... Or else lipsrsealed

Maybe nah ISIS go enslave them next grin
Don't mind them, in fact no people has been humiliated like the jews, if you read about what the catholic church did to them, you would pity them. Even we Africans, dey suffer for our hand.

You cant win an ideological war with weapons alone.

I hate to admit it and I hope I'm wrong, but unless Nigeria becomes accustomed to the killings and having BH at their backdoor they will have to fold and submit to BH.

The US thought it could win but now it's paying off ISIS so in return they don't feature any more Americans in future internet beheading videos. Thats far from being considered a victory even from a determined military heavyweight like the US. Nigeria is not the US... It is possible for Nigeria to obliterate this BH problem but the myriad of other unwavering issues help fuel the fire, while the army's only a small bucket of water to this growing fire.
US would be shouting 'I don't negotiate with terrorist', but na dem go first pass back go negotiate with them. If I am Buhari, I would secretly pay Shekarau off to go and join his brothers in ISIS.

Before Christ, Romans conquered Israel, even during his time, Israel was occupied by the Romans. At little after Jesus the Jews made the Romans angry and the massacred the jews, drove them away from Israel. for about 2000 years from then, the jews were second class citizens every where they go. The christians persecuted them for what they did to Chris, the Arabs were flogging their yansh any time they deemed fit. Hitler did his own. Till the Europeans decided to have mercy on them and create a state for them. The so called 6 day war only succeeded because the Arabs just gained independence and didn't had any air force nor good military. The Europeans trained and gave Isreal weapons, especially their air force.

The only time Israel met a strong force Hizbollah backed by Iran they lost.
