Dhugal:Please stop. I've always been Ika and will always remain Ika. Anybody well versed in Ika language, culture and traditions must also know much about Edo because there are lots of similarities. I'm not claiming to be well versed in Ika but the little I know helped me in understanding Bini to a great extent |

RedboneSmith: No, you tell me. Were there migrations from Imo, Abia,Ebonyi, Enugu, Oyigbo, Asa, Ndoki,Egbema into Agbor? Where does that leave your ridiculous "Populous ancient Igbo people whose Population spilled into Anioma" story? You see how you make a public fun of yourself? 1 Like |

RedboneSmith:You see your life?. What you called an "Empire in name only" controlled armies,sacks cities n kings at will,yet have limited powers?.That shit you're smoking is very strong,I tell you. BTW,it's William the Conqueror.Not Norman. The invasion was tagged Norman invasion cos he was Duke of Normandy,wielding powers much like a king in his territory,n was supported by Norman nobility.Capetian France,in it's early days,was a confederation,with the King more of a figurehead and real powers residing with the dukes and counts.It was Phillip II Augustus that really changed that.That's an aside. The Austrian empire was REFORMED much later in history into the Austro-Hungarian empire,under Franz Jozef.Austrian empire had existed for centuries before that and was in fact the successor state to the HRE. Oh,the Germanisers,as you call them,established the Baltic states,which to all intents n purposes are still Slavic in outlook n somewhat in language. Try again. BTW,aside Phillip IV the Fair of France,leading to the 100-year Avignon papacy,I will like to know which "small-time adventurer(s)" held the Pope captive and at what time in history. I did warn you to hit the books first before making any allusion to European history you know nothing about,didn't I?. |

Dhugal: Any lord with enough coins to hand out could raise large armies in feudal Europe. No. Germanisers did not establish the Baltic states. Balts (close cousins of the Slavs) did. Germanisers didn't go further than Brandenburg and Prussia. You are a history student. Go check out how those two areas became German, and come and tell me how it was all due to the Imperial might of an all-German emperor. 1 Like |

Igboid: Again, ridiculous question. Don't even know how we are talking about Ebonyi and Ndoki here. You are simply being absurd. But since y'all respect Onwuejeogwu so much, I know you have heard his theory about movement of people from the Owerri zone ( a well- populated area, both in pre-colonial times and today) into Ikaland. |

RedboneSmith:*sigh* This is much like taking candy from a child. Hellooooo! Ever heard of the Northern Crusades,the Livonia Crusade,the Teutonic Knights?. Only much of Lithuania escaped,and that by merging with Poland after beating back the Knights. You're a gift that just keep giving. Stop typing and go hit the books for a while,please. Any local lord can raise armies in medieval Europe?. Are you for real?. Which and which local lord did that and when,pray tell?. Don't mention William,he was a Duke.The equivalent of a small king or sovereign grand duke today. |

Dhugal: One example out of like thousands. Count Charles of Anjou, a vassal Lord under the king of France. Conquered for himself a kingdom in Italy. In fact, the king of France was, in feudal times, so much in fear of his vassal lords that his word meant very little outside of the small area around Paris. What's all that about crusades and knights and Lithuania? Are you under the assumption that you are telling me something I did not know? My premise was and is that the HRE's imperial authority meant practically nothing, and German communities, some of them as small as 300 people, operated without any deference to it and regarded themselves as fully independent in every sense of the word. |

RedboneSmith: And these Owerri people came to ika land and colonised them right ? Pls show us archeological and sociological evidence of Igbo colonising them. I was thinking that Igbo are humans never knew they are super humans...They colonise physically, mentally and linguistically that all elements of Benin names and culture are eroded in one swoop Unlike Britian ,Igbo colonisation takes no prisoners.i am impressed. So those owerre people made the gullible Benin people to change their language and names automatically. Pls can you give us date when this happened. Is it Eze Chime that did that or some great NRI priest. This is soooooooo funny |

RedboneSmith: All community that make up olumbanasa don't have Igbo name but what is olumbanasa....? I was thinking that you are intelligent Olumbanasa is an Igbo name meaning the voice of seven towns ..Yet you said that they don't have Igbo name but chose Igbo name as a group. Are you really ok ?

ariesbull:They are not the same thing. If you read the previous posts, we talked about words having same spelling but different pronunciations and different meanings. This is one of them. But like we earlier said, all you guys need to ascribe an Igbo meaning to any Ika word is similar spelling. You guys have even tried to give Igbo meaning to words that don't even have any similar Igbo word like Ominijie, Agbon, Dein and many other Ika words but you've failed. 1 Like |

Cire80: Lol You guys are still on I see. How you all cleverly avoided explaining how Nduka Ezeagwuna came to be the name of a king in Ika land is still d topic...just Incase... Also, this talk of ascribing Igbo meanings to words that are already Igbo betrays your ignorance of the topic under discussion. Like I mentioned in previous threads...you lots need to travel further to the east and find out really what you ACTUALLY share. Your denials will only end up making you look funnier than the Onichas in Anambra when they were confronted with the fact...that there were more Onichas in the Igbo hinterlands...than Onicha Mmili and Onicha Ugbo. So which came first? The Eze in Ika or the Eze in SE Igbo land? Or the Umu Eze Chima's Onicha came before the many more Onichas around? Apparently, inherited ignorance and an inherited attitude towards all things Igbo will make a man bearing Emeka Esogbue...in a country sharply divided along ethnic lines..deny the Igboness of his name...and the language he speaks...while affirming another identity of a people right next door...who do not speak his language or bear the same name as him. Point is...you Ikas and Aniomas have a boatload of history to set right. 1 Like |

RedboneSmith:Charles of Anjou was the third son of Louis VIII and brother to Louix IX,the crusader.He was not just any "vassal lord" Charles conquered the two Sicilies with the French army. Heck,you're even confusing periods.The Capetians started out without power,but gained absolute power under Phillip II. The HRE,however,started out and stayed all powerful throughout its span.Right from Charlemagne down to Habsburg-Lorraine. Dude,give it up.Your "German hypothesis" holds no water at all.A strong empire existed,to have germanised Berlin.Prussia was inherited and then established by force of arms,by the elector of Brandenburg. That,however,is not the case a la Ika and the rest Igboland east of the Niger. Now,for the last time,stick to Igala, Anioma and bits of Igbo history and culture you know of.Stop dabbling in European history for your false equivalencies,tis way beyond your ken. 1 Like |

RedboneSmith:Was this not what I said earlier and that Cire80 was talking rubbish But according to your submission, are you trying to say that before 1577, that agbor was called Igidi...kos 1577 is the year the Bini attacked and destroyed agbor. Also according to that document, Igidi was a kingdom in present day Anioma that was destroyed at the turn of the 15th century.. Though the report wasn't sure what led to its destruction. Secondly, the Ominijie issue shows that one ND report I read sometimes ago on agbor was actually correct in contrast to what ehikwe was saying Truly history is sacred |
Re: 23 Year Old : Obi Nduka Ezeagwuna II Crowned 20th Obi Of Issele-uku - Pictures by Cire80: 11:38pm On Feb 14, 2017 |
cheruv:Destruction of Agbor is just a figment of some people's imagination. There's a myth about an ancient Ogidi Kingdom that was destroyed sometime around that period you mentioned. I hope that's not what you're talking about. Is it the same Kingdom between Onicha Ugbo and Igbodo? And is Agbor between these Kingdoms? Even Umunede was formerly called Agidi. So if there happened to be a kingdom between Onicha Ugbo and Igbodo that answered a gidi sounding name, you would attribute it to the so called Ogidi? What Niger Delta report are you talking about? The one that faked an interview with the Dein of Agbor where the Dein said Agbor is Umuleri? Ain't you ashamed to be quoting such things? Do you think we're here for child's play? |
