Don't bring divisions please,me for one isn't from your south east but I do know Anambra has segmented towns, ihiala is a LGA ,we're talking about clans like ikwerre,Ngwa, Ezza, Nkanu, mbaise,Afikpo etc
This shows that you know nothing. Ihiala is a town on its own. The local government given to the town was as a result of the severe resistance from the neighbouring towns, especially Okija which is the eldest and largest town by land mass not only around the local government but the entire Anambra State. Ihiala was the place that the white people settled first after considerable amount of resistance.
Okija, Ihembosi, Ihiala and Uli are actually siblings in the same order of seniority.

Looks like ngwa may be the largest Igbo clan in the Southeast followed by ikwerre in the southsouth,i will use the number of local governments they have plus population size as evidence,for example ngwa has about 4 local governments in Abia they have obi ngwa,isiala ngwa ,osisioma ngwa plus Aba they number roughly 2million and ikwerre have ikwerre ,emuoha,obio akpor and portharcourt LGAs all together ikwerres are the largest igbo clan in the south south with a population of over 1 million
I doubt if they is any single Igbo clan this big .
.

Don't misinform the public.
Mbaise is far bigger than ikwerre in population and land
Nsukka is way far bigger than Ikwerre.
So nwanne verify your information first.

you guys have complex. Have you ever heard the Yorubas try to argue whether the binis or itsekiris are Yorubas??
You have spoken well my brother. Igbos just seem SO desperate to claim other tribes as being Igbo, even when the leaders of those tribes have made it clear they are not. Why not focus on having good and cordial relationships with other groups instead of all this trying to claim them? I am Edo, we have excellent relations with our Yoruba, Urhobo and Itsekiri cousins We know we are all related historically, but nobody tries to claim that the others as part of them. We respect each others separate and distinct identities.

Some large Igbo clans that occupy atleast a local government.
Ngwa have 7 lga, Izzi have 3 lga (Izzi, Abakaliki and Ebonyi lg) Ezza have 2 Ezza N/S( Some large pop of Ezza are found in Ohaukwu, Onicha and in Ishielu LGs of Ebonyi and in Addo lg of Benue, Ikwo hv 1, Arochukwu have 1 +Aro Ndizuogu, Nsukka have 1, Mbaise have..., Nkanu hv 2 Nkanu E/W, Afikpo (Ehugbo) hv 2 Afikpo n/s. Nnewi hv 2 nnewi n/s Onicha ado have 2 Onitsha n/s, Awka hv 2 Awka n/s.
Owerri hv 4
Why are people just this ignorant? Nsukka people have one local government? I think you are high on cow dungs!
The Nsukka people occupy Enugu north senatorial district and have 6 local governments to themselves. Namely;
Igbo-Etiti, Igboeze North, Igboeze South, Nsukka, Udenu and Uzo-Uwani!
Re: Ngwa Followed By Ikwerre May Be The Largest Igbo Clans by Eastlink(m):
Abagworo:
The largest Igbo clan is Isu by virtue of how Igbos were traditionally arranged. Afikpo is Isu as well as Ohaozara, Isuikwuato and all the Isus including Igbuzor in Delta State. Isu is more than half of Igboland. Ngwa is the largest in present day political arrangement having more than 7 local governments and Mbaise is an artificial formation created in 1943 by colonial masters
Egbema is Isu and an admixture of Oru. But we are basically Isu. 7/10 of Egbema communities trace their origin to Isu and 2/10 Oru and Aboh (Aboh can still be considered as Oru looking at how them, Oguta, Ihiala, and Ogba have the same source, while 1/10 of us are Oratta.

nope. It doesn't work that way. You don't just wake up and decide you're Igbo or not. We haven't forgotten about the Biafran genocide or Obigbo.
Well is not in your place to tell anyone which tribe he belongs to

The rest LGA you mentioned aren't Nsukka ,they are Nsukka zone by senatorial District

Is just like saying ohaukwu,ishielu, izzi,ikwo,Ezza N/S,Ebonyi and Abakaliki LGAs are all Abakaliki whereas we know is not true,they're different

You just confirmed how uninformed you are.
I will repeat again, Ihiala is a town on its own.
As for the local Government, it is the largest in Anambra state. Infact the state have/ is still considering splitting it.
As for where you passed, it is the outskirt. Not even one percent of it.
Maybe very soon you will say Okija is small because you passed the outskirt. Or that okooko is very small because you heard that you passed it in between Obosi and Onitsha not knowing that Okpoko has larger landmass than Onitsha

Lol,see this ignorant man,i only said Ihiala was very small yo compare other clans we argued that was the largest in Igboland such as mbaise,Ngwa,Ezza,Ikerre etc of course in your tiny Anambra which is the smallest in the whole country by landmass outside lagos ihiala can be the one eyed man in the land of the blind and not not at par with those clans I mentioned .like you can say Ihiala is bigger than Idemili, Aguata etc and you're correct.do you need me to educate you further?

Anambra West is the largest local govt area in Anambra state by far. Infact, it will contain Ihiala Lga four times over. Don't argue with me, just google any map of Anambra state.

I guess he is from Elele . Majority of Elele people don't deny Igbo . Where we have Benin slaves in ikwerre is in emuoha , obiakpor and most of ikwerre LGA.
We will send those slaves occupying Igbo land back to Bennin when the time comes comes.

Slaves everywhere
