This is a shap man. He knows how to press the mumu button of the Igbos. He wants them to support his desire to be a governor and when he gets it ,he will ignore and dump them like a used tissue paper. Delta people have no care for Igboness ,it is the SE igbos who like to play attachee by force because their region is barren and dangerous.

Na your Button?

Why are Yorubas always pained whenever you head about igbos outside the South East?
If I tell you to mention your region for comparison,let’s know the one which is barren and dangerous,you will mention Lagos so there is no need feeding a troll

[quote author=donmixc post=136773344]They’re no Igbos in Kogi, they should free that state Abeg😒, Mr man you are part of the haters of Igbo. My days in school I have a course mate and a comedian in class from igalamela Odolu who is Igbo by name and tribe, he has no other language than Igbo, his name is name is Chukwemeka Odimba. This name is not igala name,You guys have really tried enough to divide the people of Igbo for no tangible reason.

He should be telling those Igbos to accept themselves as Igbos first.

We count 1 before we count 2..

You enter a house first before the person inside the house can tell you welcome.

You can only embrace someone who comes very close to you, and not someone who is very far away.

SE is the most dangerous region in the South,that is why rich Igbos hardly go home without protection, even Cubbaba said it. No one is pained by anything,but it's clear why Ned is suddenly pro-Igbo. He knows you need his acknowledging of you like a bee needs a sweet flower. He will use your weakness to get what he wants. Which is to be a governor of the new state .

I am an Igbo Man / Ika from Ika North East LG in Delta State.
But to most Southeasterns, I am Delta Igbo...
You see what most of you don't understand is that state creation never existed until the British Project called Nigeria was mapped out and even when states were created, they weren't drawn out based on ethnicity rather on military or superficial reasons..
That's why it irks me when some Southeasterns will say am not true Igbo...like can you listen to yourselfhuh Our forefathers have been migrating and cohabiting with each other for centuries on these lands but when Nigerian Military Government drew boundary lines on these same lands, you now ingested that as your true identity even discriminating and looking down on your kinfolks in other parts of the lands!! It's ridiculous..
And this is one of the effect of not teaching rigid history in Nigeria especially including the Civil War..a lot of ppl born in the late 70s downwards just think their state ethnic group is superior to their same ethnic group in other states or that though we speak more or less the same mother tongue but since we are in different state we are different!!! LMAO!!! Most Nigerians are so ignorant on this ethnic issue and it pains me that parents keep Passing down this ignorant virus down to their blood line..
Well spoken brother. It is the same way some of our ignorant Yoruba brothers who happen to fall in the S/West think they are more Yoruba than our indigenous kith and kiln in Kogi, Kwara, Benin Republic, Brazil, Cuba et al just because of superficial geographical boundaries.

In fact, some of our indigenous Yoruba brothers in Brazil are more rooted in the Yoruba traditional culture and spirituality more than 95% of the ones in the S/West... A lot of them have never missed travelling down for any annual Ifa and Osun Festival in Ife and Osogbo for decades. And they believe they are more Yoruba than these folks representing the deeper aspects of the Yoruba culture in truth and in deeds just because they happen to be carved into an artificial geographical region called the S/West of Nigeria.. What a joke!


Ignorance is a serious mental disease everywhere!

No,the most dangerous Region is the South west,where Ritual killing is king and children are not safe as they can be kpaied at anything and their organs stolen,we also know it’s the region with the most Royal criminals
And Ned has always been pro igbo,maybe you are a kid who just started using the Internet recently,and there is nothing wrong in him being a Governor because he is a son of the Soil

Ibos in Kogi? How? Where? Which LGA?
Maybe they think Igala is Ibo. Let me say it here, Igalas are not Ibos, and never will be. If Igalas are looking for who to attached themselves with, it is never Ibo because they don't have anything in common with them.
Language, culture and traditions of the Igalas is closely related to that of the Yorubas. Even our religion is similar, as we both practice same IFA religion.

People that always want to erase people identity and imposed theirs. Abia/ikwerre are good examples of how they will erase your identity and replace them with Ibo language/culture/translation.

exactly, you all don't even support yourself but you want other people to take you serious. If you eventually get your Biafra, how do you plan to take Lagos State? since nah no man's land. Igbo in Lagos State will suffer the consequences just like black people suffer in USA because of racism.

I am not talking about migration, Igbos are indigenous in all the places i mentioned.

Being in APC doesn't stop him from being Igbo.

grin they just want to press the mumu botton of our emotional blodas who get triggered by news like this grin you can’t force anyone to be eboe if they don’t want to associate with the tribe and I don’t blame them.

I once dated an anioma girl by the name chikiama, and I could remember in our short relationship because i don’t have plans to wife any chi but just to date for fun grin she always deny are eboe heritage and get defensive anytime I call are eboe grin

She even told me are late dad won’t accept an eboe man for her as husband and I was surprised that such sentiments still exist. She even told me she it was her wish to date and marry a Yorubaman grin and another anti Eboe sentiment I also experienced was during my service year in owerri. One of my flat mate also a corper from Agbo also never identified with his Eboe heritage, despite the fact the he understands eboe and also an Eboe name.

This sentiment are real, even amongst the eboe tribe in SE, they still segregate themselves with this primitive osu system and inequality where some eboe like Anambala see ebonyi man as lesser eboe calling them nwa abakiliki and some also referred to as Wawa, so how do you expect others to join you when they see the segregation and lack of unity grin

I am Okun Yoruba from Kogi State.. It was earlier this year that I got to find out there is a handful of Indigenous Igbos in Kogi State because I met an Igalla guy bearing Uche. His mannerisms and accent is Igbo. He speaks Igbo and Igalla fluently.

He told me he is from a town in Kogi sharing direct border with Enugu... Most of the people from that town(can't remember the exact name now) and neighbouring villages speak Igbo and Igalla.. This is because they have been intermarrying for centuries..

So down the line, they have produced the offsprings who happen to be the hybrid of both cultures similar to what is happening in Akoko Edo.. A town popularly known for its fusion of Akoko(Yoruba) and Edo culture because of shared physical boundary over the years..

Asides that, Kogi is like a mini Nigeria.. It is a state housing the highest amount of indigenous ethnic groups which hardly have anything in common.. The same Kogi is sharing direct borders with the S/West(Ondo/Ekiti),S/East(Enugu),N/Central(Kwara) and Abuja..

Let's learn to be open-minded and develop a research culture instead of immediately believing or rejecting any new claim that is alien to what we have always known or brought up to think..

That's the hallmark of an educated mind.
