Their Igbonesss has never been disputed.
The Living in bondage, Circle of doom, Evil passion etc scripts were written in Anambra Igbo so non-Anambra actors had to adopt the dialect for these movies.
I don't know where the actors in the Abakiliki movie are from but it apappear the script was written in Abakiliki dialect.
See the movie on youtube when you can and please let me know what dialect(s) they spokespoke.



so as call coal city baddo... Nsk Oriental and Obollo-Afor Nwa-Afor... what do you really think about this movie titled Nkoli Nwa Nsukka?.


I possibly don't like the movie cus it's not my type of movie, but my main question here is this... will the Udians, Mbus, Ezike-Obas and the rest cry me a river or shout out for disrespect cus they all have different dialect but same state?

Everything don't have to be politically charged. Why not charge the to mass to become well informed citizens of igbo land and of Nigeria at large. I mean, a shitload of people don't know Ebonyi state is part of igbo land.




ozoigbondu:


l think is because their governors are deadwoods.Ebonyi is governed by 81 years old Elechi and Abia by the worst governor known to man theif orji.The lazy governors has made their state backward.

Abia though dragged back is still popular thanks to Aba but as for Ebonyi sometimes i forget it is an igbo state

Abia state is great and no igbo state can talk down on us not withstanding our current leadership problems.Aba still remains Enyimba city with most successful club side in the history of football in Nigeria and one of few states in Nigeria that have two teams in Nigeria first division league,one in Aba and the other in umuahia....anyone looking for a backward state should look else where.Abia Rocks!

They have to do more. Sadly that's the reality. I'll use my people for example. We are barely talked about when it comes to igbo community; even the OP did not include us in his igbo category. I understand the reason why is because we are not located in SE and also we are not standing out as the 3 the OP mentioned. Infact, even Ebonyi gets more recognition than us. Now I'm not mad, nor feel betrayed. Currently, my people are more political advanced than others and I know if we continue the pact we are in, my people will not be side lined anymore. Ebonyi equally have to do more if they want full recognition. That's my own advice.

I understand you real good. you have a point. They have to do more just like abia state too If not dor anything the ariaria int'l mkt is situated in aba... theres need to do something. where u from if not these 5states?
Re: Why Are These Two Igbo States Hated??? by lighternote: 4:32pm On Apr 29, 2015
The annoying thing is that if you are from Anambra and you inform your parents that your suitor from Ebonyi will like to pay them a visit, they will reject that and even reject you for nursing that ambition. It will be as if you committed an abomination.

You implied that we do not view them as Igbo because their dialects are sisignificantly different.
I categorically made it clear in my post when I used the term most igbos. not all igbos. Most igbos in the sense in Anambra where I stay, an Ebonyi man would take offense if you refer to him as onye Abakiliki, I couldn't comprehend the reason why people called them such. Although I heard so many stories ranging from their dialect to how the under-developed the state is.

The issue of under-development was confirmed when I noticed during my admission days that the cut-off mark for Ebonyi indigenes in the 3 federal universities in the south east is quite low compared to other south eastern states. The reason when I inquired was as a result of how under-developed the state is that's why the schools feel they should give Ebonyi indigenes a chance to acquire knowledge.

The issue of dialect was confirmed when I visited a village in the state.

somegirl1:


That reason would only apply to people who have visited their villages and were unable to comprehend the language.
True

somegirl1:


You have yet to give the reason for the discrimination, real or perceived, by the majority who have not visited their villages and discovered how different their dialects are from the other very diverse Igbo dialects.
You can't expect me to give reason why the igbos in general view them as non-igbos. I spoke from what I've heard about them, then confirmed it after visiting the state. Any other reason why other igbos who probably haven't visited the state or schooled in the east but discriminates against them has nothing to do with my posts. My posts is based on personal experience.

Those states are not hated. Ebonyi people are really nice people and they make good neighbours, except people consider them sometimes as primitive because of their core accent and how they behave, but that doesn't equate hatred.

I personally think Imo and Abia are one and the same people and don't see how calling one without the other becomes hatred.

don't deny us.. All of una fit Dey nairaland here

COME AND SAY SOMETHING HERE
Nobody is denying you! Its maybe that in most people's mind Ebonyi is still part of Enugu and Abia still part of Imo.

Personally for me. Anyone who speaks Igbo is Igbo. Qed.

The Igbos in Delta State and other Niger Delta States are no less Igbo than those of Us in the Igbo mainland of south east.

ebonyi people are not disliked the are arguably the most fantastic farmers south of the Niger their farm mounds en ridges would give any professor a lecture on crop rotation en maximum land yield-not forgetting their enterprising females .their problem is that they are yet to be lead by a true leader their area seems a little underdeveloped.I dont even know y the op included abia yes it lacks compared to the other three states in good governance but,come on guys for a state created 1991 abia is doing good.
Thanks for the clarification, and you're right, Abia shouldn't be included, That was why I didn't even talk about the state.

I do not see the point in adulterating the Igbo dialect spoken in a movie that was supposed to promote Abakiliki language hence the titles "Nwa Abakiliki" and "Ada Abakiliki".
If you see the movie and tell me they didn't speak their dialect, then we'll discuss that.
The solereason these states seem to be disregarded is because they are relatively new. You can't mention Igbo towns without mentioning Aba.
Imo and Abia are seen as a single entity and Ebonyi as part of Abia.
When next U see an Abakaliki man speak,listen carefully, U will hear.
Ezza language which is a dialect in Abakaliki is very similar to Awka dialect.
I am an Abakaliki man,even though I am very fluent in central Igbo,yet I find it difficult to understand some of d dialects in Imo/Abia,Ohafia and Edda languages to be precise.lol
