WARNING! !!

It's not everyone who opens a thread to lambast Anioma and Ikwerre that is Igbo. So many northerners and south west People Now open threads with Igbo sounding monikers just to attract hate to Igbos. This what joblessness under this regime has reduced them to.

Be guided.!

Pls, Anioma is not Igbo. Anioma is a political union of Ukwuani, Aniocha and Ika/Agbor. I am an Ukwuani man from Utagba uno. Am not Igbo, neither am I Aniocha or Ika. Anioma was formed by the people of Delta north senatorial district.

The fact that the Igbo are claiming Anioma and ikwerre people are Igbo have an underground motive. If you want us to forge a union together to achieve a common goal, let it be clear and don't try to dominate and divide us.

It's not by force to be Igbo, we are ukwani people not Igbo. Though our language are kind of similar and we have some similar names. ( Note these names may look the same when they are spelled, but have different pronunciation). If you want us to follow your agenda let's sit and talk and call it Igbo/Anioma/ikwerre. Don't cause division among us, you can't just take us and put us under you as Igbo nation. That was why when the Aniocha/ Ukwuani and Ika people wanted to create a union, the choose a different name (Anioma). Ukwuani people can not tell the Ika man that he his kwale. Pls the Igbo should take note. Stop telling us we are igbos. If you want to create a union, bring the offer to the table. Let's discuss it within our selves. And it pays us, we may decide to join under conditions. But not as Igbo
this is what my fiancée from aniocha north has been saying.
She keeps being irritated anytime I call her Delta igbo

There is a popular saying that if you fail to learn from history it is bound to repeat itself.most delta Igbos and ikwerres do not consider themselves Igbos I laugh and laugh I think they tend to forget what what in 1967 when Nigerian troops massacred them in asaba you are claiming you are not Igbos but the Hausa/fulanis know it's not true you guy near Igbo name's like AMAKA,Ngozi,Chidi,ugochukwu and the rest .don't be fooled other Nigerian tribes know those are Igbos name's that's why they massacred you guys in 1967 even though you guys denied your Igbo identity all my saying if Igbos manage to secede from this zoo called Nigerian you guys will suffer if you fail to join biafra because you will be considered enemies of the state because you share Similarities with the Igbo race a word is enough for the wise bye.

OP please know your history. Biafrans invaded and occupied the region. They installed Igbo army generals to control the region. They needed that region to take the fight to Lagos. The region was not consulted and no allegiance was given. Biafrans were defeated at Ore, they retreated and blew up the bridge, essentially trapping Asaba people with the invading Nigerian troops. The massacre that ensued is the fault of Biafra and the Nigerian troops.

ANIOMA is not Igbo. We have a very different culture and lifestyle, “Delta Igbo” is a misnomer. Unfortunately, our fathers were not proud of our heritage so they gave their kids Igbo names to blend with a dominant culture. ANIOMA people have their own first names. We have names like and they sound nothing like Igbo.
Anupu, Isama, Otunniya, Okwanuzor, Ishicheri, Okwubiri, Ebinum, Egwenum, Osanebi, Ossai etc

Most ANIOMA languages and Igbo is not even mutually intelligible.

Some Languages in ANIOMA have Benin in them, phenotypically, ANIOMA look nothing like the Igbos, also River Niger would have made it much more difficult for the migratory trend to have been from the east. After migration and later trading is responsible for the Igboid in the ANIOMA group of languages.
I've heard of this thing you are explaining before

Also ojukwu never declared war the entire igbo nation and our eastern brothers erroneously referred to as SS did

Be guided.!
Bro truth to God, I am about to open a thread to address this issue.

If you use your 99 you will realize that people who hate ndigbo are opening threads or saying things that will be used to bash ndigbo here.

That was how one of them said "an igbo man can't allow his pregnant wife to work. It is only Yorubas that allow their pregnant wives to work"

Bro, you need to see how nairalanders were making reasonable contributions, on how the country will move forward. As the contributions were going on, one mischief maker posted that nonsense and people here switched from the topic to firing insults at ndigbo.

Being an Igbo is not easy, but I give you my word that it won't take so much time before things start going well for us.

Whenever I check the chinese who went from nothing to something, in the 20th century, I put my body and soul together, because this things we(ndigbo) are experiencing in this country won't last long.

About who is and who is not Igbo, I think it is time we southeasterners accept it that it is stupid to be dragging people who have come out in the open to say that the are not Igbo.

Biafra will come, but it will begin and end in southeast.

To the southeasterners, here, haters here are succeeding in making trouble for us, because you are predictable.

When someone, here say "an Igbo made this hate filled post" every one here will believe it because you are known to be posting things like that. But, when they will accuse let say tribe A or B of making the hate filled post, no one will believe it.

Umunna, I believe I have said something reasonable here.

Keep on hustling positively and stay healthy to witness that day, the Creator will set aside us.
