There are no Igalas in Anambra. We have migrants Igalas from Kogi, just as you have other migrant ethnic groups in Anambra.
Shut up, there are Igalas in Anambra who are Anambra I indigenes.
Re: Anambra Is 70% Igala And 15% Benin by Bkayyy: 3:46pm On Dec 25, 2020
Anambra owns 90% Igala And 60% Benin
fixed.
Igala and Bini are offshoot of NRI
Argue with your elders if you fall into either of the two said groups.
If you are Igala ask them who is Oboli and Onoja.
if you are Bini, ask them what Igodomigodo means

My mom is from Onitsha, and indeed told me some years back that they are originally igalas, these is old news.
Almost all the towns and villages in NORTH PART OF ANAMBRA originally trace their linage in IGALA but they are all IGBO SPEAKING TOWNS and speak purely IGBO LANGUAGE.

This is nonsense. There are igalas among us and we know their history. In my village, many of them were former slaves that decided to settle there.

You are very correct. All true IGBO in ANAMBRA are settlers. They came to hustle. But all the wealthy people in ANAMBRA are all IGALA.

As funny as it sounds there's some atom of truth here.
If Igala is minority in Anambra, an Igala man wouldn't have been a governor.
We all know that Obiano is an Igala man.
Also, Onitsha people never denied their Benin ancestry.
IGALAS are the majority in ANAMBRA. Wili Obiano, Peter Obi, Prof Charles Soludo, Chris Ngige, Chris Uba, E-Money and all wealthy IGBO MEN in ANAMBRA are all IGALA. They only speak Igbo cause it's the language of trade in Anambra.

Stop this rubbish, Igala has no problem with Igbos.

We have no problem with the igbos

Igalas own what was known as Old Anambra State, anyone with reasonable knowledge, will tell you that people from Anambra State are much more refined & enlightened than other igbos from inner region old Imo State. That is why people like Obiano do not recognize the lowlife Nnamdi Kanu from backward Abia State.
In response to the bolded. The reason why Obiano and other ANAMBRA People see themselves as more superior than IGBOS from other States from the EAST is cause, they are not IGBOS but IGALAS. grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

All these nonsense started from Chino and Abagworo. Go to Facebook and see hordes of Igalas rewriting histories to claim Igbo communities and land, in the name of migration that is hooked on story-lines.
When we Igbos, throw jabs on each other, in the name of cyber war, our enemies stick around to take advantage over spoils. As it's popularly said, when two brothers fight, strangers inherit their father's estate.
And yet you were not smart enough to know that Chino and Abagworo moniker is operated by the same imposter.

The mass marriage thing in Anambra is an abomination to Igbo culture that's why I created this thread.
By the way we have already Igbonized the Anambra Igala same way Illorin Yoruba is Fulanized.

This is how you people keep trying to claim other tribes, the relationship between igbo and Igala people of north central is that of slaves and master. Igala people enslaved Igbos in the past,go and check their history. Nyamiri people You want to force relationship on all tribe,you claim South south people are from Igbo, Idoma Igala from central Nigeria originated from Igbo. You people dont even have a culture like Igala and Idomas and south south people. How do you say Good morning in Igbo?

Nobody enslaved the other. Igala are mere offsprings of Onoja, the son of Eri and Oboli, the founder of NRI in Igboland.
The same with Idoma, which is the fusion of Igala and Igbo.
This is something an Eze Gworo cannot understand.

ha ha slaves, go and and check Igala people history nothing like Nri, now you nyamiri people created nri and linking Igala to it. Igbo are seen as slaves in Igala culture ,they called you people achadu, adu is slave in Igala. Igala, Idoma,Agatu,Alago,jukun etc have same origin from Apa. they share alot in common , culturally. how come you people are so different in culture, in behaviour , in attitude from all this tribes. I understand Igala share more in common with Yorubas than Igbos. And there are some igalas that share so much with Hausa culturally. You people were used as slaves by Igala worriors of the olden days. Nyamiri peoplegrin

Achadu is a title in Igala land. You can't know more about igala than me.
Ask yourself this question. Why did igala refugees flee to Igboland during the invasion of Jukun forces fighting for the Sokoto caliphate.
I know your intentions is to cause discord between Ndigbo and Igala so that the two will attack themselves while you look for points to jot down during the ordeal and use it against the two like the way Aba's dirty pictures that were uploaded during Chino and the others squabble are being used against Ndigbo till date.
in truth you people know nothing about Ndigbo and other ethnicities around them

ha ha Igala people flee to Igbo land liars. So you dont know history of Inikpi of Igala. Igala people never fleed from any war. Even if they will flee certainly not to Igbo land , people they conquered in the past as slaves. what protection can you nyamiri people offer. Jukun is not is not from sokoto caliphate my nyamiri friend, Jukun is from Kwararafa kingdom and that is the kingdom Igalas,Idomas,Agatus,Alagos,kutep,mumuye etc are from. Nyamiri you people originated from akwa ibom people, you people originated from annang,Ibibio people. You dont have any link with Igalas, Idoma, Agatu people.

But you people are claiming Igala people's land at IBAJI that land is crude oil and gas rich. You want to take it from them because you think Igala people are minority tribe. Or you want to deny that?
