EbenezerTriumph: Don't tell me if your mum is from Aniocha North coz you're full of lies, I can't believe someone from AkwaCross is impersonating as a Deltan so he can argue about the ethnicity of NOI, something Ngozi stated in her book!!! You should be ashamed of yourself, as for the 5 states stuff LMAO, no matter how much you cry, it won't change the fact that any Enuani man from Anioma you meet will always tell you he is Igbo!! |

EbenezerTriumph:rita okafor from bini abi? So why is her name no ofure? As for cross river and akwa ibom, that one na small thing, we have indigenous igbos in cross river and akwa ibom like 20 to 30% I went to a friend's burial in a village in ogoja, all the music was igbo, all they spoke was igbo. And when i saw that my friend, i say "my igbo sister", she say noo, the igbos are settlers. And i say how, she had nothing to say |

EbenezerTriumph: To show you're a pathetic liar, you have roped in a non-existent Ex,the fact that NL is a faceless platform does not make it hard to track people like you! Thesame way I found out you're from AkwaCross is thesame way I'll expose you again. A big note to you: Though there are thousands of Igboid dialects scattered in the South East,Niger Delta,Benue and Kogi states, the people who accept the "Igbo" tag would continue to be Igbos and nothing can change it, not even a well constructed lie from you! I know someone like you doesn't know that one of Okowa's campaign promise in Delta State which he fulfilled is to ensure the teaching of Igbo language in all schools in Anioma,I know you don't also know that every community in Anioma nominates a delegate to represent them in Ohaneze Ndi Igbo and they all have one vote like others during Exco elections,I know you don't know that. What you will know is how to change your identity from AkwaCross to Deltan so you can create a stupid theory that someone from Ogwashiku is not Igbo! Shame on you!!!! 1 Like |

Owajigarrisson:thanks. Tribe is not delineated by states. Rivers say they do not have indegenous igbos, but etche is a town with some part in Rivers and others in Imo. So etches in imo are igbos but their brothers are not. We have egbema, both in imo and rivers, and u say egbemas in imo are igbos but their brothers in rivers are not. Same as ndokis, some in abia and others in rivers. And they say ikwerres are not igbos, when me an igboman hear all they say. I even understand ikwerre igbo more that of some parts in ebonyi. The ogbaru people are along the River Niger, some parts in anambra and others in delta. They are same people, same dialect and same culture. And an ogbaru man, whether from anambra or delta will call us from igbo hinterland "ndi igbo". Anioma people call themselves full fledged igbos, because that's what they are. The Asagba of Asaba, even said it. That there is nothing like Rivers Igbo or Delta Igbo, all Igbos are igbos and they anioma people are fully igbos. 1 Like |

I remember those days when travelling from the north to igboland takes whole day in public bus, luxirous bus. Whenever we get to umunede, delta state (present day ika) my dad would ask all of us to come let's eat because we have gotten to igboland. And they all speak igbo (then they were called Bendel Igbo). And our delicacy was ofe akwu (banga) which was only gotten in igboland. If my dad try order for stew for you for your rice, you may not eat it and will cry all the way to imo state. 2 Likes |

nextstep: I do not know anything of the sort. I in fact know the opposite of what you claim to know. The following is dated 13 October 2020 | 4:33am, so you too can know what most people seem to know. President Muhammadu Buhari, yesterday, assured former Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, that Nigeria would explore every opportunity to seeing her emerge as next Director-General of the World Trade Organisation (WTO). The Nigerian is one of two candidates contesting for the topmost job of the multilateral institution. Buhari, who received the one-time Managing Director (Operations) of the World Bank at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, said she deserved more support to get the plum office on account of her profile and diligence in public service. “I assure you that we will do all that we can to ensure that you emerge as the Director-General of WTO, not only because you are a Nigerian, but because you are a hardworking Nigerian. You deserve this,” he added. https://m.guardian.ng/news/well-push-till-you-clinch-wto-dg-seat-buhari-assures-okonjo-iweala/ Nigeria Amaka! www.nairaland.com/attachments/12851548_20201211015618941_jpeg_jpeg858ea5b4dddce8b9dfd064a0818909f1 1 Like

Owajigarrisson: I am an Enuani man. As you know, there has been a complicated relationship between Igbos East of Niger, and their brethren West of it, who I'll collectively call Anioma. Many people whose families have lived in Enuani since time immemorial trace their origins to Edo, Esan, and of course Nri, among other places. Migration, settling, marriage ties, trade, etc has resulted in a melting pot of people who are distinct from the Igbos - in the same manner Americans are distinct from the English, though they speak English and some do recognize their English ancestry. An Irish American, however, would balk at being called English, as would a German American, Spanish American, etc. The acceptable identity is American; similarly, the acceptable identity is Anioma. Throughout recent Nigerian history (past 150 years or so), there have been repeated incidents where Anioma was grouped either as Edo, or Igbo, South-South, or even Western Region, based on the prevailing political expediency. That Anioma is not Igbo could not have been made any clearer by the declaration: "We, the Chiefs, Elders, and Representatives of Eastern Nigeria ... do hereby solemnly proclaim that the territory and region known as and called Eastern Nigeria together with her continental shelf and territorial waters shall henceforth be an independent sovereign state of the name and title of 'the Republic of Biafra.'" Eastern Nigeria did not include Anioma at that time, the Governor of Eastern Nigeria was not in charge of Anioma, and thus could not be referring to them when he says "your governor". There was also no subtext in the declaration that mentioned: "including the Igbo-speaking communities West of the Nigeria..." or anything to that effect. Before you argue, also consider the phrase: "Midwest_Invasion_of_1967". The invasion began on August 9 when 3,000 Biafran soldiers led by General Victor Banjo crossed the River Niger Bridge into Asaba. One cannot invade your own country. Yes, there were Biafra sympathizers from Anioma - several fought with distinction in the Biafra army, as did a few Europeans for that matter. There are also those who conclude that, since we speak Igbo, we are all Igbos. There is room for folks like NOI and Major Nzeogwu to recognize her Igbo ancestry; there is also room for others to recognize their non-Igbo ancestry as well. Anioma is redefining its identity - on its own terms - not based on the patronizing opinions of Igbos, and not on the confused understanding of other Nigerian communities, but on its own terms. 1 Like |

budaatum: I am quite aware of that article, however, I still believe this statement to be true: "if this woman was vying to be a minister in this Nigeria, our very own bigot - PMB - will pass over". One or two examples of being pan-Nigerian do not wipe out scores of examples of not being pan-Nigerian. Nevertheless, I'll echo your "Nigeria Amaka!" so as not to be disagreeable. 1 Like 1 Share |
