I'm from Imo State and I can perfectly understand when an ikwere man speaks igbo. I understand theirs even better than the dialects of some parts of Imo State

nedekid:
So I wonder why some rivers people with obviously igbo names will say they are not igbos, an example is wike.

IamHonourable1:
Over my dead body would a Rivers state man take over Ohaneze seat,no be you guys talk say you no be Igbos.God wan punish una

This is what we ikwerres are saying. If you understand ikwerre don't you think you might have migrated from Ikwerre Land? If America despite their strength and size today understand English don't you think they migrated from the UK?

In Igbo language what does Wike mean?

nedekid:
Oga If you know tell us, which one you de ask me, you know if I understand igbo language?

Tranquill:
Tell the lunatic Uche Okwukwu to please come host ona Igbo meeting for him papa house for Elele say you want confirm that he is truly Igbo.

Trust me he would rather host you in his mother’s village in Umuahia, but it is now left for you to ask him why…..that is if you even get tiny sense and self worth.

Tranquill:
Please without writing too much nonsense, show us Amaechi’s name and signature in your ohaneze register or his membership card.

You can also show us the form he filled or where he indicated interest that he wants to become your ohaneze president.

chrisxxx:
Bros I support you 💯%.
I am ikwerre and over 99.9 of us detests Igbo identity like leprosy. Even, Amaechi has never for once said he is Igbo. Amaechi said no one could deny him of his igbo heritage. Heritage is not the same with ancestry or identity. I am ikwerre. My grandma was Umuahia. This is my igbo heritage. No one can deny me of this just as no one can deny Amaechi of his own having an igbo wife and grandmum.
It is a smack of foolery if Ohaneze hands over Ohaneze to an Ikwerre aborigine.
Let me throw another shade of light here. Any ikwerre man who has Arochukwu we call them Arnu identity is actually an Igbo man. Uche Okwukwu has Arnu identity and he is qualified to run for the president of Ohaneze. Another person that has Arnu identity is Livingston Wechie and a few others.

I am trying to tell you that Ikwerre has nothing to do with Igbo. Ali Ikwerre bu igbidigbi Ali. Ali Ikwerre nweru igwugwu.
If Igbos want to be Ikwerre we welcome them. Ikwerres have different dialects just as Igbos have. If Igbos want to collapse themselves to ikwerre people they are welcome.

gidgiddy:
This guy is funny

What do Ikwerres call God? Chineke/Chi Okike, same as in central Igbo

What do Ikwerres call their customes and traditions? Omeneli. In central Igbo tradition and customs is called Omenala

What do Ikwerres call their central house where family discuss important issues? Obiri. In central Igbo, it is Obi

What is the Ikwerre traditional Wrestling? Egelege. In central Igbo, it is ekereke or ekereke-mgba.

The only difference between Ikwerre and any other Igbo clan is the one that has always existed, different dialects . All Igbo clans have different dialects

Same language and customs, different varying dialects

But people that have responded to my earlier post seem to think otherwise, infact one was aggressive about it. Note also the non English your wrote in your post spunds like you wrote something in igbo language. 🤔

This is childish on your side. Igbos telling ikwerre they are speaking igbo is like seeing a Samsung TV in my house and you claim I have your TV in my house because you have Samsung in your house. Ikwerres don't have anything to do with you people. There is no history of Igbos anywhere that ikwerres migrated from any part of them. It is only a coincidence as found all over the world that we share some words in common. This is not only found with the Igbos vs Ikwerre. It is found in Malaysia vs Indonesia, Ukraine vs Poland. Sweden vs Norway, Finland amongst others.
Make una no waste una time an ikwerre man would never have anything to do with Igbos. Ikwerres vehemently deny your identity before the war when they had a lot to gain. They won't now that you people have riddled your identity.

Hankim:
Who made you Ikwerre speaker? i only blame those engaging empty head like you

Ojiofor:
Americans speaks english becuase they were former British colony.Did any community from southeast colonized Ikwerre land?

chrisxxx:
This is why we say you people have shallow reasoning. America wasn't colonised by Britain only 60% of them migrated from the UK. Today we have more English speakers in America than in the UK. It is possible Igbos left Ikwerre Land. They were originally ikwerre people.

Ojiofor:
You are the one with shallow reasoning.UK colonized USA that is the reason english is their official language.There are Spanish speakers but English remains the official language.You argue from now till your old age it doesn't change anything.Ikwerre and other Igbo communities in Rivers state are members of Ohanaeze ndi Igbo nobody forced to them to join the social cultural group.On the day they will elect a new leader in January, Rivers and Delta states will send 15 delegates each while 5 states of southeast will send 30 delegates each. These delegates will elect a new PG from River Igbos it is not even about Ikwerre.

chrisxxx:
You people should elect me the new Igbo leader.

Ojiofor:
Sorry,Ohanaeze do not elect efulefus as their PG.
The Ikwerre group that is pushing for Chibuike Amaechi candidacy knows he is a member of Ohanaeze Ime Obi council that is the decision making organ of the group.Wetin you know?Even Wike as governor was paying dues to Ohanaeze ndi Igbo he endorsed Uche Okwukwu to represent River state in 2019 as secretary general.

Stolen:
DONT BE FUNNY, OHANEZE PRESIDENT HAVE ALWAYS GONE ROUND TO RIVERS STATE.

IKWERRE PRODUCED FORMER OHANAEZE PRESIDENT, THIS IS NOT THE FIRST.

God bless you. That event has been entirely deleted on the net. You can't find that event anywhere again.

Ikwerre no b igbo
