Ikwerre Identity: Prof. S. C. Achinewhu Replies Iwuanyanwu. by Whalis: 9:31pm On May 12 |
Chief Emnanuel Iwuanyanwu is working very hard in futility to convert Ikwerre into Igbo.The name is Ikwerre a distinct ethnic group with her own history, culture,language and is recognised by the UN as such.Ikwerre is clearly positioned by God in the South South region of Nigeria and she is intimately associated with the Nigeria and recognised as a Distinct ethnic group.In 2018 Ikwerre language was celebrated to mark the UN day of indigenous language and Ikwerre participated in a conference of ethnic minorities of the World.Iwuanyanwu born and bred in Rumuokoro should rather claim to be an Ikwerre man instead of dragging Ijwerre to Igbo.Iwuanyanwu should listen to these few illustrations that make an Ikwerre man different from Igbo man .1 the mode of dressing is quite different 2 The mode of dancing is different Ikwerre does waist dancing while the Igbo jumps 3 Ikwerre displays Owi (owu) masquerade while the Igbo man displays nmanwu 4 Ikwerre man displays wrestling, eregbu and obor which Igboman does not do.5 in cuisine Ikwerre cooks with marine products namely: fish, periwinkle, oyster, igigororo etc while the Igbos eat insects, caterpillars, grasshoppers, termites etc. 6 Traditional marriage ceremonies are different. 7 Traditional rulership and succession in Ikwerre is quite different from that of the Igbos .While succession to traditional follows tradition the Igbos succession is by election. Ikwerre ancestry is traceble to Benin and Igbos have no ancestors even though they claim Israel.God didn't make a mistake by positioning Ikwerre in South and the Igbos in South East.Iwuanyanwu's confusion arose from the mistake made by Lord Lugard in 1914 when he divided Nigeria into North East and West and no South according to the 4 cardinal points. If there was a South, the Ikwerre man would have nothing whatsoever to do with Igboman who would struggle in the East as Ikwerre man would have struggled and there would have been no meeting point. Ikwerre should be left as she has been fully established by God and will remain so established forever. - Prof. S. C. Achinewhu 8 Likes 3 Shares |

Nyamiriflathed:Afon_ja Igbo, you think we are yoluba who are crying blood to claim benin because they allowed you chaps into their land, haba nah. Oba of Benin have now vowed that any Edo traditional ruler who ever step foot to visit "Odeni of ife" will chop serious ban and relieved of his title.. That's a very good move to curb you people who are "Attachees by Force". 6 Likes 2 Shares

The truth remains that any part of Africa claiming to originate from the old Israel is lying and living in foolhardy. The Israelites are of Semitic race, with bodily looks like the Arabians, Persians, Medians, in the Middle East. It is foolishness for anybody from the Hamitic race (who are dark complexioned) to say or claim his/her ancestors came from the Middle East. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Praxis758: The Semitic race is negro, while the Hamitic race is dark skinned like the dark native Americans, dark Indians etc. The negroes have wooly(kinky) hair. |

Whalis: You mean a Professor wrote this? God did not put any Ikwerre in South/South, there was nothing called South/South 30 years ago. South/South is nothing but a geopolitical zone, the constitution does not even recognise it. Ikwerres are a small minority found in just 3 or 4 LGA's, and are insignificant in the wider scheme of things. If they like, they can blame to be a distinct ethnic group that descended from the Chinese, to each their own. For those such as Chibuike Amaechi, Duncan Okechukwu (Duncan Mighty), Tonto Dike, Obi Wali, Chukwuemeka Ejekwu(Sabinus) who have all publicly embraced their Igboness, we embrace with open arms. At the end of the day, whatever one claims to be, it's all about Brotherhood. It's the one that calls you a brother that is worth holding, while you discard those who don't, for they will be the ones to destroy you tomorrow 1 Like |

Deltancapo: I’m not trying to force anyone to join Igbo land. I’m just confused about how a professor can write like this. To me, most of these people denying Igbo are in the same school of thought as anti biafrans, who are in the same school of thought that Biafra is an Igbo ethnostate. I’m not worried about Biafra because that can only be achieved once people realize that the first step to get there would be regionalism which would weaken national ties. An ikwerre person can choose to identify as whatever he wants, be it an ikwerre man or an Igbo man, not my business. 1 Like |

gidgiddy: There was nothing like called the south east 30 years ago too and nothing like the east before the Europeans came and created Nigeria with north, west and east. Before south south was called the Niger Delta. So to you south east is now an Igbo name. 2 Likes |

Paraman:Not even Amaechi or the Obi Wali that fought for minorities right. Go and read what Amaechi told the Deji of Akure. He told him clearly he is Ikwerre and not Igbo. Amaechi has never claimed to be Igbo. He only said he has Igbo heritage. Myself I am not igbo but I have igbo heritage as my grandmother was igbo from Umuahia. This doesn't make me an igbo person but I have igbo heritage. Sabinus a small boy of 30 and a comedian. Is he the person Igbos are listening to? And he never said he is igbo. Duncan mighty only said his mum is Igbo and never claimed to be Igbo. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Whalis: I know why igbos want to assimilate Ikwere. The IPOB aim is to get access to the sea through any south south state acquisition. That is why they are desperate to include south south in their Biafla project. They realise that getting an independent country that is small dot in the map and without access to the sea where they can import all junks and sell hard drugs will be suicidal. Now you understand why they want to assimilate any tribe that will give them access to the sea. 7 Likes 1 Share |
