cantell: Ukwuani, Anioma, Ika, Ikwerre etc are just deluded set of people trying their best to change the way they are.
No matter what you all claim, the rest of Nigerians, will always see you as Igbo.
Even some of their folks claim Igbo when it's convienient for them.
Left for me, we Igbos are more than comfortable with the way we already are.
The likes of Abagworo seems to think we're not and this is the major reason why arguments in threads like this lingers on and in the end, it doesn't change anything.
We all know who we are, regardless of what we claim to be.
Ka Chineke mezie okwu.

a single u isnt beta dan the over 1.5million anioma people..one question people like u fail to ask urselves is, in a political setting like that of nigeria where belonging to a major tribe counts, yet the anioma people kip distancing demselves 4rm the easterners, even wit obvious gains dey may get by bin a major tribe..dey prefer bin regarded as minorities..WHY is dis just peculiar to d igbo..

Andre Uweh: The chap who composed the above list does not know about Nigerias ethnic groups. Take a look at Delta state. Which ethnic group is Enuani, Ndokwa or Ika.
Ndokwa is just a local council in Delta state and they speak a variant of Igbo dialect called Ukwuani. The same Enuani is Igbo which he listed. Ika is also Igbo. In Abia state, there is no Ibibio language or ethnic group. This madness really has to stop.
In Rivers state, the fool did not list Igbo as a language yet half of the population speaks Igbo.
That list should be thrown into a waste bin.

dude..in delta state, delta north to be precised, there is 1 ethnic group called anioma, here different dialects are spoken, namely: enuani which i speak, ika, ukwuani, olukunmi, igala, ozarra, aboh etc

An average anioma doesn't see himself as an igbo man..you need to reside there to really get the jerk..anioma people have decided to take destiny into thier hands by dissociating themselves 4rm easterners..even when u find a few anioma accepting to be ibo, they tell u dey are delta ibo and not igbo, dats just to tell u dat sumtin is wrong
