Nigerian constitution recognizes Ikwerre as a unique ethnic group. If we are pushed, we will go to the national assembly and push that igbo is Ikwerre. You know in democracy number matters. The north and Yoruba senators will vote in our favor and Igbos will no longer be seen as an ethnicity group in Nigeria.

Lol ,we would love that, one thing will be proven, ikwerre is igbo , igbo is ikwerre, this is something Nigerian constitution can't get rid of, it's history

Ikwere people sabi embarrass IPOB GOATS well well

Unfortunately for you,the Ikwere people speak Ikwere language not Igbo. If you like go Supreme court.

But how come no other ethnic group wants to associate with the IPOB group?
Maybe because nobody wants to associate with a bunch of thieves.

Tranquill:
Carry your ipob gibberish go siddon for gutter. E don cast only your moronic gang of delusional 0d3s takes you seriously.

If you had read the gibberish and understood it, then you are not only delusional but a dumbass.

You go explain tire
You should be wondering why nobody wants to be your friend, everyone is dissociating themselves from you

Shame no dey catch una? You try your best to attach to everyone in the Niger Delta but everyone keeps telling you they don't want to have anything to do with you. Very embarrassing.

You go explain tire, NOBODY WANTS TO ASSOCIATE WITH IPOB GOATS.EVERY TRIBE IN NIGER DELTA IS DISSOCIATING THEMSELVES FROM IPOB GOATS

See Ogba, Ekpeye and Iwhurohna (Ikwerre) you see close affinities. When they speak you see a related people. Why Igbos want these people by all means is yet to be deciphered.

Bro, don't mind the stupid Igbo people.
I have been unable to post here because of a b.a.n. I might be ba.nn.e.d after this.

They will continue being unity beggars.

@seun should look into this ban. One of them I guess he is Igbo banned me till April 2025. He called me Igbo and I called him OSU. Any ikwerre man you call Igbo sees it as an insult.

He should look into it.

Anytime someone from the SE calls me Igbo, I usually say "God forbid" in my head.

Just call the person OSU. That is the equivalent.

Na wetin I go dey do now

Odingo1:
The problem is that Ikwerre speak Igbo and language defines who you are, Yorubas are Yoruba because they speak Yoruba. Ikwerre people own can’t be different, they can drop their Ikwerre dialect of Igbo and start speaking Bini or Yoruba then people will no longer see them as Igbos. You can’t be speaking Igbo language and be claiming to belong to another tribe.

Why are you forcing them? Is it not honourable if they say it themselves?

Cindypresh:
Olaniyi relax, you know nothing about Igbos and their tribes.

Same way a typical ijebu man will find it difficult to understand okun and typical okun man will find it difficult to understand ijebu, but you all understand modern Yoruba.

Now, that's same way an Nsukka man will find it difficult to understand ikwerre and an ikwerre man will find it difficult to understand core Nsukka language but all of them can easily understand central Igbo.

Do you now understand??

anything different from what I said

ORIGIN OF BRITISH PROJECT OF DE-IGBONIZATION OF RIVERS IGBO AND
THE ROOT CAUSES OF IDENTITY DENIAL IN IKWERRE, OGBA AND MOST IGBO TRIBES IN RIVERS STATE~Written by Professor Chidi Osuagwu

1. The British project of De-Igbonization of Riverein Igbo/Plot of War against the Igbo has basis in Resources control and started actively after the Iva Valley/Enugu Coalmime Massacre of 1949. The British, after World War II, had a policy of using resources from the Colony to rebuild war devastated Britain. Coal, mined at Enugu and shipped to Britain was part of the grand plan. The 'rebellious' Igbo had other thoughts. The British were plundering the Igbo coal and paying pittance to the Igbo Coalminers. The Mners protested and the British massacred. The immortal Osadebe song "Onuigbo" memorialises the massacre. The Enugu massacre didn't end at Enugu. It led to a general strike, led by Michael Imoudu, in Nigeria. It reverbrated across the British empire, particularly, Africa and speed up the independence campaigns. The British marked out the Igbo for destruction, including War. This is the origin of the plot for the Biafra War, which was originally scheduled to take place before or by 1958. Sir Robert Stapledon, Governor of Eastern Nigeria pressed Britain to defer the War.
2. At the time, Britain already knew that some much bigger resource than coal existed in Eastern Nigeria...Petroleum. They moved fast to insulate it from Igbo control and influence. Independence, as Decreed by the United Nations after World War II, was unrushing and Britain moved fast. They sought to create Rivers Region as outlined below and failed. They moved HQ of Shell Petroleum from Owerrri to Port-Harcourt. They set out to, ferociously, deigbonise the Reverein Igbo, recruiting Local Hyenas to their cause. They used the pretext of the Biafra War they ploted and excucuted to destroy the Igbo and Igbo culture in their 'Rivers Region' as outlined below.
3 . Kay Williamson is well known to me (she was there when I took my PhD at the University of Port-Harcourt). She was a British agent recruited, from University of Ibadan to University of Port-Harcourt. Her sole mandate was to prove that Riverein Igbo dialects were Igboid languages and not Igbo dialects. She was executing all kinds of linguistic 'Bubuyaya', until Computer programming came up. With Language-markers she had programmed the computer to draw map of Igbo Language Area and Igboid Languages areas. When the computer, based on the Language-markers, could not identify Igboid languages, but classed her Igboids as regular dialects of Igbo, as known by linguists all along, she broke down and died. When she died the Ijaw buried her at Kaiama, their traditional headquarters, as National heroine. She was expanding their territory and diminishing the Igbo. Not minding that the majority of the people of Degema Division are of Igbo stock, not Izon, and yet the Igbo, in good faith, accept their Ijaw identity...not claiming them as part of Rivers Igbo. All parties mock the 'Igbo-Sampson-at-Gaza'!
4. Kay Williamson's career was in furtherance of a secret colonial office policy document to the Willink Commission of 1957/58. The British had wanted the Commission to create a Rivers Region for 900,000 Ijaw. In effect, de-Igbonizing the Igbo in the then Rivers Province.
5. The Willink Commission put a final seal on the identities of the peoples of the then Rivers Province by:
a. Noting that the number of 900,000 Ijaw claimed by the British Colonial Office memo was fictional. This is because an earlier working document on the population of Rivers Province earlier given to them, by the same colonial officials, had indicated that the Province had a total of 703,000 people. Of these 150,000 were Ogoni of Ogoni Division. 250,000 were Ijaw of Brass and Degema Divisions. 303,000 were Igbo of Ahoada and Port-Harcourt Divisions.
6. The above facts, embedded in the Willink Commission Report, put the final seal on the facts that the peoples of prewar Ahoada and Port-Harcourt Divisions are Igbo peoples and nothing else.
7. It is clear that the British, judging from their hatred and anti-Igbo policies since and the career of Kay Williamson, never gave up on their policy of De-Igbonization, and Ijawization, of Riverein Igbo at the expense of the Igbo Nation and British profit. It is also, clear, from their heroic treatment of Kay Williamson that the Ijaw are complicit, as default beneficiaries, of the genocidal British machinations against the Igbo.
8. "Phil, our gamble about identity has failed!" was a statement made before his friend, Phillip Nkwocha of Emeabiam, and myself by Senator Obi Wali in 1991. Shortly after that he died for agitating for Igweọcha/Port-Harcourt State. There are, apparently, some self-serving Riverein Igbo still gambling about their identity...and who will, ultimately, fail as Obi Wali lamented.
9. All the current campaign against the possible emergence of an Igbo of true Rivers State origin is part of the British planned De-Igbonization of Riverein Igbo for Petroleum's sake. The tragedy is that Igbo "Harlots-of-Jericho" have been recruited to be the money-chomping face of the evil campaign against the Great Igbo Spirit and Nation. History Will Laugh at Them!!!
10. It is noteworthy that some Ikwerre Igbo elite bought into the ruse for gain. They switched code from distinguishing themselves from being Ikwerre-Igbo (which the British themselves had grouped as part of the Oratta-Ikwerri sub-tribe of the Igbo) in constrast to the Isuama Igbo (a core Imo Basin Igbo from Isuawa in Enugu State to Isuowu in Etche, and including; Isu-ochi, Isu-ikwuato, Isu-Ngele, Isu-Njaba, Isu-Otuakwu, Isu-Obiangwu and from Isu-Ohazara to Ihiala) to contrasting themselves with Igbo. Regretting the error of playing the enemies game a prominent Ikwerre leader, Senator Obi Wali, said to his friend, Mazi Phillip Nkwocha, before me: "Phil, our gamble about identity has failed!" Today, based on what his father taught him, his son, Ihunwo Obiwali, is an Ikwerre-reintegrationist-into-Igbo-fold activist. But, many of those his father's generation took to the Whiteman's Communion have not recognised that the Church service is over. Gambling about identity is a serious affair. Go ask the African slave-time Diaspora.
