give me the Okrika translation

I am not an okirikan...I don't know what it means in okrika

It was you who however said that it is not ikwere language...so it means you are sure what it translates to in ikwere...so tell us

You half-baked graduates should try to check a moniker out first before you start mumu argument with him

splendour7:
Nice Post! Wonderful Post!! I Love This!!!

Keep it up bro!! let us all be proud of our tribe,region and cultural heritage! i slowly read through your post and never saw any senseless comparism,your focus is only about your tribe and region,i commend you for that.Thou i'm igbo but to be frank this post of yours made my day...for those castigating and talking trash about the op and his region tell me how your life and your region better than his.....just like every other tribes he is just so proud of his tribe,tell me how his becomes a problem.

most igbos don't hate Hausa...it is the Afonjas who create multiple Monikers to paint a false picture of Igbos hating Hausa

Have you ever heard of a fight between Igbos and hausas in the east before? But every day we hear of yorubas and hausas fighting in Lagos

Arrewa:
Hausafulani Amaka nwanne!

I find this funny... you know on another world I would have loved you and how you showcase the best in your people

How ever you insult my own people and for that we can't be friends just yet

nengibo:
it is not Ikwerre, Okrika or even Eleme

ok can you tell us the ikwere translation...

The English translation is 'uplift your strength everyday'

Techdra:
Nope. I don't see myself as Igbo. I never will. And btw SS Igbos really don't have any fears. Who Igbo acceptance don epp?!

igbos generally don't talk about your tribe or care...so you are starved of their attention and it's making you jump on any Igbo thread you can find...chai...sad life

Techdra:
Says the guy who loves going to Dubai and will probably watch the 2022 World Cup but would say he hates Muslims. I 100% hate Igbos and it has absolutely nothing to do with culture. Every tribe in this country has it's own unique culture and tradition.

you hate Igbo because you are a very stupid person... nothing else

But in your stupidity you choose to love the igbos in the south south...when I meet people like you I just smh

I can't remember when I ever said I hated Moslems or Islam...oh now I get your stress... you are an Edo Moslem and you see igbos as Moslem haters.... so you hate them back....ah I see....kpelle

Techdra:
Hehehe. This post just summarizes your agitation. Very very confused set of people. Anyways, when you all are ready to speak with one voice, I'll listen not wasting my time. Maybe your elder brothers on this forum can educate you better.

you are the confused one. You hate Igbo but you like Anioma and ikwere...mumu. what is the difference in behaviour, culture and looks of an Anioma and ikwere man from an Igbo man.

Techdra:
LMAO. He told you Ika is Igbo? Ika people even have a hard time accepting being part of Delta North. You simply know nothing about Delta State nor the SS. Too myopic

I know at least 10 ika people personally...

Of all 10 only 2 said they are not Igbos... funny enough one of them is called chinwike while the other is called okonkwo...lol

I hope they read this my post and see how shallow they sounded

nengibo:
Read my comment again if you didn't understand, the advert in Igbo is to reach Igbo customers just like hero does there's with echefula across Nigeria, what's hard about a company reaching out to its target customers, all Dano milk cares about to my understanding is product sales and not your constant Igbo vs Rivers people's rhetoric

my question is this....do the real owners of PH understand that language or not?

Is the language in that advert the native language of the Aborigines of Port Harcourt or not?

Techdra:
Is this a joke? When is a census ever determined by one man?

Go and conduct the census yourself and see if there are not up to 500k ikwere people who see themselves as Igbo.

If 40% of ikwere see themselves as Igbo while the remaining 60% see themselves as ikwere...we can live with that..as far as the 60% don't see themselves as ijaw or yoruba or Benin


Just remove your eye from ikwere bro... there leaders have rejected you and have aligned with Igbos...go and read where Amechi called himself Igbo....or where Duncan mighty called himself Igbo

You will be alright las las. With pH and Asaba coming with Igbos...why will we need the rest of the south south

EmekusTHEgreat:
I have family in Asaba (iseke road precisely), I visit Ibusa and Agbor often, and from what I've seen ohhh, like real life estimates, more than 60% of northern deltan see themselves as Igbo.

if you're from Asaba you'll most likely see yourself as Igbo, it's few of the people from agbor that don't always see themselves as Igbo.

I've also met some who say that they are different but most of them keep an open mind to their Igboness, this one isn't talk, I've gone around to ask.

I feel like the major fear is that S.S igbos have is that S.E igbos wouldn't accept them or give that brotherliness that they give fellow southeasterners.

when I came back to Nigeria last year...it was an Agbor man who drove the taxi I entered...

He saw me immediately and came straight and started speaking Igbo to me...when I knew he wasn't from SE was when he spoke to his fellow Agbor man ....he told me that Agbor is Igbo.

It is important that we keep these people close because we are not many...we can't afford to leave anyone behind... Nigeria is not a sure country...we are not stable enough for someone to say there won't be division of the country tomorrow.


Igbo nation must start preparing for that without including non igbos

If you notice you will see that any time this topic comes up, 90% of those saying there are no Igbo in the south south are neither from Anioma or Ikwerre...it's a psychological warfare against Igbos from all angles bro

Techdra:
Nope you haven't. Where is the video evidence? I told you were aren't some brainwashed big babies...

if we hit you on the head with the truth like a hammer you will still say the same nonsense. The man speaking is an Ikwere man and what he was saying in that video was that Ikwere must remain Igbos if they want to keep ruling rivers state.

Interesting also is the fact the he is the secretary of ohaneze

Techdra:
All these as what?

Before these permutations, how about something practical. Go on the streets of Asaba, Ibusa, Agbor, Aboh, Umunede, Bonny or even Port Harcourt, do a census, asking the locals about this trash you put up here, record your conversation (video evidence), post it and I won't need any further convincing.

It's 2020 for f**k' s same, you can't decide for someone else from your home!

we have done that before and we know the statistics..

Techdra:
I don't have an issue with that but you can't decide sh*t from your house as far as I'm concerned, you're nobody. Asaba and Port Harcourt are part of South-South Nigeria until they choose otherwise. Shey Israel and America will help you, you don't have to usurp people's identity because you want to have ports. Botswana and Rwanda are landlocked. They do not have sea ports but they're doing quite well. Having ports have no bearing on how well a country does so run along now...

I am not alone...
Listen to this...

100% of Igbos believe Anioma and ikwere are part of the Igbo nation
Up to 40% of ikwere and anioma people themselves believe they are Igbo
80% of the rest of Nigeria see Anioma and ikwere as Igbo

You will understand the power of these statistics in the future.

You are the one trying to usurp an identity that you are not part of...let me ask you....Are you Anioma or Ikwerre or Igbo? How does the topic concern you if not that you want to insinuate yourself in what is not your business

An Anioma man below can be seen saying they are Igbo....and funny he is even the gov of your state...life must be hard for you

Techdra:
So what, Biafra intends to take Port Harcourt and leave the rest of Rivers State. Hehehe... Will you take Calabar and Warri too then call it an Igbo "city" regardless of the identity they want for themselves.

no we don't want Calabar, warri and other parts of rivers state...we just want our igboland intact ....I'm sure our map doesn't cross into your territory... you just want to make mischief...but you should know that Igbos are the chief priests of mischief

Techdra:
LMFAO. What a way to start the day! Firstly dude, we aren't brainwashed animals. Nigeria can't split today; not even in the next 20 years so perish any thought of such.

Secondly, Igbo strategically acquiring Port Harcourt? Come on man, just like Lagos, after developing, the owners of the land will chase you out like they did before. Land isn't an asset to boast of especially in a volatile region like the Niger Delta.

Lastly, you must exposed this scam called 'Biafra'! So the only reason you attach AS to this farce is because of the ports at Calabar, Warri and Port Harcourt? But if Rwanda and Botswana can do it without ports, why can't Biafra? Or you don't believe in your capabilities? In other words, you're want us to align ourselves with a cause so you can exploit us just like Nigeria has done for over 50 years now? Well, like I say, it becomes a case of the devil you know.

Btw, where is voltron14 when you need him.

if anybody told the British that there would be a civil war in Nigeria just 6 years after they left they won't believe it....so relax...what will happen in the next 4 years is still unknown not to talk of 20 years. Igbos have made their stance clear...they want to go it alone...they don't need Hausa or yoruba or ijaw...

There was never a time Igbos was chased out of any part of Nigeria except during the civil war...buying land in pH is very strategic but I don't expect you to see

pH is Igbo...we are not claiming warri or Benin or Calabar or Uyo or bayelsa...just leave Asana and pH for us and Biafra and Niger Delta can be good neighbors

I repeat...it will be childish for an urhobo man to think that there will be a future where Igbos will be excluded from pH while urhobo is included....perish that thought...we don't want your tribe...stop attaching your tribe to Igbo areas and hiding under 'south south' why can't your tribe stand alone? If Qataris can...why can't your tribe? Why do you need to attach to ikwere and anioma?

Techdra:
This simply tells the literacy rate amongst Igbos. Whose passport did Kanu use to gain entry into the US? A Biafran passport that isn't recognized by any country's embassy? Or is there an "Igbo" passport? Look at the pieces of sh*t embarrassing themselves in SA. They call Nigeria names but they behave like animals... Tueh!

I just went through your post to understand you more and I must say I am embarrassed by the level of hate for igbos you have. Do you see why your one Nigeria is not progressing?

You can't hate Igbo and love Nigeria...its like hating God and loving heaven

Techdra:
Uyo is now a state? You don't even know who you're forcing yourself on... In Akwa Ibom, there are the Annangs, Oron, Eket, Ibeno, Itu Mbonuso and the Andonis. All different tribes! Same with all South-South states.

And next time, trying reading and understanding before replying.

when did I say Uyo was a state this boy? Come oh are you sure I'm not arguing with a kid

I asked you which language is spoken in Uyo city....is it pigeon English?

You should read and understand before you reply so that you won't fool around

Techdra:
Delta has Urhobo, Isoko, Ijaw, Itshekiri, Ika, Anioma all in the same state. So which one is dominant? None! That's being homogenous so no one can say Delta is an Igbo state.

who said Rivers state was an Igbo state?

What has been said is that Port Harcourt which is only a small part of Rivers state is igbo
Your arguments are childish joor

nengibo:
Towards second artillery, the company wants to reach an Igbo audience found in the city

lol okay nengibo please can you translate it to 'ikwerre' for us

Hahahaha... keep shooting yourself in the leg defending the indefensible

Techdra:
Nope. They aren't one. They've decided to carve out an identity for themselves no matter who they bear cultural similarities with. They prefer being known as the Ikwerre people so deal with it and stop being parasites...

they have decided?
Child please you can't decide to change your tribe or race! It's part of your DNA ...a blackman can't decide he is no longer black... you can change your nationality or sub-nationality...but you can't change tribe or race. If you bring an ikwere man, an Igbo man and a yoruba man and check their RNA, the ikwere and the Igbo will match 100% while the yoruba will be different.

And hey ....it seems you have not been paying attention...Igbos are dealing with it. Why do you think we are always talking about this issue? Go to Wikipedia and read about ikwere and see what smart Igbos are doing about it. Go to pH itself and see how Igbos are strategically acquiring it. It will be childish of any 'we the south south' folks to think that if Nigeria splits today Igbos will abandon pH to Niger Delta Republic....it will not happen!

pH is too strategic to us...it is our only link to the ocean.... Oh ijaw and the rest of the south south should be ready to kill every igbo for pH before we leave our god's given land to you just because of threats

Techdra:
Another dry and totally unrelated mention. The entire South-South states are all multi-ethnic so a language or tribe can't claim dominance or superiority over others.

you my friend are just acting like a block head without the ability to reason deeply

Let me ask you...as the entire south south states are multi ethnic, why is Ibibio the dominant language in Uyo? Why not pigeon English?
Why is ijaw the dominant language in yenagua why not pigeon English?

You are the one who is guilty of quoting a thread you didn't understand and talking trash that is unrelated to what the op was saying...and 4 dull people even liked your silly comment...great

Techdra:
Port Harcourt and Rivers in general aren't Igbo. It's just like saying, Delta State, Edo, Akwa-Ibom, Cross River or Bayelsa is Igbo.

Compare Onitsha or Aba to Lagos in that sense.

saying that PH is igbo is not the same thing as saying that Delta State, Edo, Akwa-Ibom, Cross River or Bayelsa is Igbo.

Who taught you book?

Ph can be Igbo while some other parts of rivers state isn't...

Besides the op is asking why ikwere (which is a very igboid language) is not spoken in pH like yoruba is spoken in Lagos

Blind hate for igbos make some of you sound unintelligent

AngryIgboMan:
Hopeless man. I can't just but thank God on how IPOB disgraced this imbeccile of a former DSP.

This man has no shame at all. A very greedy mothafucka. You have been in the house since 2003 and it has not done you? Na only you waka come?

Based on the prevalent security under the hopeless presidency of Muhammadu Buhari, is this morron not aware that community policing is the way forward?

I gave up on this basstard when he refused to support Peter Obi when Atiku chose Obi. This nama was of the view that he has served PDP long enough to be given the slot. Can you imagine?

Anyways, new yam festival is coming up soon. Germany calleth again

Dear Ekweremadu and his useless family....

if you bothered to watch the video you will see that he is agreeing with you that decentralisation of police is the way forward...

Chai Nigerian yoots sha

azimo:
Once you are from Africa you are lower than a monkey because we blacks don't reason . That's how white See's us. Is a welcome idea we blacks need to wake up I don't feel pity for my self

it's stupid to say blacks don't reason.

Do you know that many African countries like Botswana, Namibia and Gabon are as developed as Europe?

wellmax:
This is bad, regardless of the fact that it is a remote village.

But you see those saying Aba, are you telling me that Aba is a village?
This village isn't dirty or have people living in squalor like your Aba, they have only not had the privilege of having a decent source of drinking water.

I hope government will rise and do something asap.

ABA has been experiencing urban renewal since 2015...I guess media propaganda won't show you that

Where is starboy

Coded people would read this and understand that the OP is 100% right

Obj was a strong president because he carried the entire south along

Any yoruba man who comes in 2023 and hope to be backed by the north will be a very weak president who would ultimately leave this country worse than he met it

Rossippi:
Do not come in here using racist terminology.

You clearly lack proper home training, or you'd conduct yourself with decorum.

Tell me. Is it by force that we must all accept your views?

You've made your point. Now go away.

All you're doing is displaying your intolerance for opposing viewpoints.

Is that how your new republic will function? Everybody must think like you or you won't let them be?

I can name a few countries where such is the norm - North Korea, Afghanistan, Uganda under Amin, Hitler's Germany etc, etc.

the bolded coming from someone who called me a 'low iq dunce' in the deleted post above shows that I was right calling you a hypocrite.

Hypocrisy is the biggest evil bedeviling Nigeria. It is the evil that makes a tribe accept a thief if he is one of them and demonise a thief if he isn't.

Hypocrisy in you is what you should be fighting for first before fighting for good governance in Nigeria.

Thank you

Yankee101:
And someone thinks biafra would solve all of naija's problem

Biafra can solve all of Biafra's problem... nobody ever said Biafra would solve all of Nigeria's problem

Keep the argument simple please

Don't equate what is going on in the east under Nigeria's setting with what will go on in the east under a Biafra setting

Innosson should better go and mass produce this car now and bring...we don't want to hear sob stories later o

And Gburugburu should ban keke in Enugu joor...we should be flowing with the times
