Aniomas aren't against being included in SE. We just want you guys to start respecting us. We're one right? So SE need to start acting like it.

BrownRoofRep:
I don't care about whom they claim to be. I used to but not again.
My main worry now is General aniomafirstson forcing us to his new Anioma Kingdom.

One of these we will wake up and learn we are now Benin fugitives and not Igbo.

ariesbull:
You don't use because you want to be big and carry dead weight..I prefer smaller but efficient

BrownRoofRep:
We will never be a part of people that hate to be called Igbos, I reject that with all my strength.
Ogidi is not Anioma.
Ogidi has never been Anioma.
Ogidi will never be Anioma.

aniomafirstson:
Nobody is claiming to be from Benin
the important thing Is that she sees herself as an anioma lady

selemempe:
in politics..there is no deadweight in population...why do u think that china has over-taken powerful japan in asia? Why do u think hausa fulani keep getting there way all the time.

Anioma itself is also an asset. Oil..they have...great people they have...we need them bro and they need us. Stop division.

i respect u guys a lot...the okonjos..the okochas...elumelu...ovia too many to mention...great men and women that i want to proudly say one day that they come from my region

selemempe:
Still on this matter, I know many people from Anioma axis think that they should be a seperate ethnic group.
How ever its a fact that they answer Igbo names, speak a dialect of the Igbo language, have Igbo traditions and share a border with mainland south east. Yes they may also have a connection to the binis but for some reason they did not evolve bini names, language nor culture. They evolved Igbo

There is never going to be a way in this country that a man whose name is Chibuzo Dike will not be regarded as Igbo by everybody. Why do u think it was Gej and not peter odili that became yaradua's vp. Why do u think Kaduna Nzeogwu's coup is regarded as an Igbo coup.

We the Igbos of se only agreed to be called igbos recently too. Otherwise before the white men came, we were Ngwa people, Bende people, Nsukka people, Agbenu people, Wawa people etc etc just like you are Anioma people. There has never been (and will never be) a central Igbo ruler. What we have as Igbos is our shared language and culture. Nothing else. A DNA check might reveal that the Aba people are more brotherly to the Akwaibom people than they are to the onitsha people. However, all that dont matter any more. What matters is that in the 21st century, we all speak the same language and share same culture.

Let Anioma state be created and joined with the south east for the following reasons


[1] It will be a predominantly Igbo-speaking state

[2] Even if the people do not consider themselves Igbo, there are more cultural ties that bond them with other states in the south-east geo-political zone than the south south geopolitical zone

3] Aniomans have always been treated as second class Igbos because they were part of the Western Region and Bendel States. If they are made part of the south-east, that will stop.

[4] Let us face it, the Urhobos, Itshekhiris and Ijaws in Delta State outnumber the Aniomas and would not allow them to achieve dominant positions within the state

[5] At the moment, the south-east is the one zone crying out for more states.

[6] There is nothing wrong with states in one zone being on different sides of the River Niger. Remember that Benue State is south of the river, as is Kwara State, yet they are in the north central zone.

[7] According to Cornelius Adebayo, the Yorubas in Kwara and Kogi States want to create Oya State and make it part of the south-west. If this happens, a precedence has been set.

[8] I know a lot of Aniomans have a deep afinity towards Benin and Edo but being part of the south-east does not mean this will end. The Yorubas of Ilorin do not stop celebrating the Oro festival just because they are in the north-central political zone.

[9] A lot of Aniomans have not been able to occupy positions their abilities deserve because they have been victims of not being clear cut members of ethnic groups. For instance Senator Patrick Osakwe of Asaba could not be put forward for senate president, despite the fact that he is probably the most qualified Igbo-speaking senator for the job. Being part of the sout-east will resolve this.

[10] Creating Anioma State and making it part of the south-east, should lead to an increased westward migration of Igbos. This is necessary because of the high population density in the region which is putting pressure on resources, leading to a host of social problems.

What are your thoughts.
Remember the south needs more states to be able to challenge the north in the national assembly and south east particularly need one more state to be able to have an equal voice with other zones in Abuja.

Can you tell me what makes a community outside Delta north anioma Biko
I would love to learn !

When its concerning Lagos your brothers dont want to be tied to SE, they'd rather not even be called SEasterners.

Over the Kaduna Declaration scandal last year your brothers in North coined a new tribal name and labeled themselves Arewa Igbo. They loathe being called SEasterners.

Leave Anioma people alone like you left alone Arewa Igbo and Oduduwa Igbo.

Beside, se you know say Yoruba people dey inside Anioma State? They can never be part of SE or Biafra, never!

aniomafirstson:
ask Ngozi she said it herself

argue with her

They proudly associate with Yoruba and even speak Yoruba dialect mixed with borrowed words from neighbouring cultures.

Are you taking stupid afonja serious...he doesn't understand njakiri...can you imagine a Yoruba man that lost kwara talking where brothers are yabbing themselves

Can you tell him to install Oba in ilorin
Can you tell him to install a Yoruba chief Inman in ilorin his father's land
Can you tell him to even lead prayers in ilorin when there is Muslim
Can you even tell him to declare fasting ....as a Yoruba muslim


Nna chefuo ndi Ara na ndi nzuzu Yoruba ....even if we yab ourselves we are siblings that is what they don't know

Negodi afonja ..let me come to Igbodo and call them Yoloba
