They have been poaching/claiming Imo people since.

asha90:
And the i.diot from the wawa is busy claiming the same people that uses L. He only wish he was an Anambran. The only thing they know is eating Okpa without achieving anything but will be quick to claim success from another land...

Unfortunately the only Igbo language these dunces like to speak is the same Anambra version of Igbo language which is seen as fashionable and acceptable unlike their own version that sounds awkward and inferior.

Onwero ife n eme..sounds sweet to the ear even to a non Igbo!

Alusioji:
Nwanna kedu way. Ugwulube okodu (UMUOJI)representing

Anambra arguably has the highest number of celebrities in Nigeria. When I say celebrities, I mean the top of the class celebrities of which Anambra leads the rest of Nigeria. I may be wrong or right if I say that Anambra produced well over 30% of celebrities in Nigeria. I will be uploading their dossier with pictures as we go on.

silverspringle:
Mike Ezuruonye is from Imo state. Chika Ike and Phyno are both from Enugu state

mhizzcutie:
You forgot Actress Nuella njubigbo,,browny igboegwu and zubby Michaels... At least they are from my town!!!!... proudly Ada Ozubulu

Ihuomadinihu:
Wanna correct a few mistakes.
Alex Iwobi is from Delta state.
Mike Ezuruonye is from Abia state and Chinyere Udoma is from Enugu state.
My fellow Igbos,remember this is thread to celebrate igbo sons and daughter of Anambra origin,it's not a thread to cause division,rancor or mock other Igbo states. Whatever we have achieved in our respective states,is for the collective advancement of the Igbo race.
Ndewo nu.

maestroferddi:
Wily Anumudu, the brother of Humphery Anumudu (lawyer and former PDP guber aspirant) is from Mbieri, Mbaitolu LGA, Imo State.

Chinom:
No need for that. 95% of all these celebrities listed here grew up in Anambra. No single one lived his life in Enugu or their villages. That's why I consider such threads stoopid. You're most influenced by where you were born and raised, not where your ancestors came from.
