bigfrancis21: You are only talking of an ideal situation. Movie producers do not care about Igbo unity. They are looking for naira my brother. However, you can venture into movie production and implement your ideas. 1 Like |

Eddiecute86: My brother I tire for some people. Most Igbo communities understand each other very well. Dialects does not necessarily impede mutual intelligibility. |

Pchidexy: With the rise of Igbo language movies, many Igbo movies are being produced nowadays. The Igbo consciousness is returning and Igbo movie producers could extent their borders to these areas like I suggested, since Nollywood English movies are acted in some of these areas already: Asaba, Igbuzo etc. 1 Like |

ianSweet:I dn't know what you are talking about but i'm sure with the excellent knowledge of Nigeria you have displayed thus far you know more than you want to admit. FYI info though, i have spent the beta part of 22 years in Igala land and still counting. What do you make of Ibaji history assuming you are familiar with them? |

By Igala history, the Igalamela people are Igbos by origin. They are not descendants of Abutu Ejeh. But today, they are all known as Igala people. This has always been my suspicion. I suspected that Igala people might have occupied a more Northern territory in the past, but were pushed southwards, where they met indigenous Igbo communities, whom they overpowered and assimilated, leaving traces of Igbo influence in the process. Whenever you read the origin stories of communities in Igbo Etiti LGA of Enugu state like Aku, Ekwegbe etc, they all seem to believe they migrated to their present location from Igala, and that they were Igalas, while parallel Nshi origins there are muted. But what I thought when I critically analyzed their stories was that these people were probably displaced from their original locations that could be in present Igalamela, Olamboro, Ibaji areas by the Igalas in the ancient time, while some of them stayed behind and assimilated as Igalas in those places( Igalamela, Olamboro, Ibaji). You can read about the Igala stories of Igbo Etiti people here: http://igboetiti..co.ke/2010/10/history-and-tradition-of-people-of-igbo.html?m=1 The problem is that Igbo communities consider it exotic to hype on perceived links with cultures outside Igboland, while non Igbo speaking communities with Igbo ancestries outside Igboland, consider it a political necessity to conceal whatever links they have with communities in Igboland. 4 Likes |

Yyeske:So please use what you learnt wisely and not use any slight opportunity to attack or insult your fellow igbo for some silly political reasons or join others to denigrate igbo, all in the name of being politically correct-a very silly way to think if you ask me because other regions don't give a hoot about political correctness but themselves first As you can see, the fact that a lot of igbo communities are scattered in different geopolitical zones should tell you why a lot is wrong with Nigeria Thank you! 5 Likes 1 Share |

Joavid: I will not stoop so low to argue with you as it is really obvious that you are not only dumb but you are also a mannerless stark geographical illiterate. That you come from Kogi state does not change the fact that some Igbo communities fell into the neighbouring states during state creations. There are also some small number of Igala people in Anambra state and some radio stations in Anambra broadcast some programs in Igala language. 4 Likes |

Their are strong igala influences in places like anambra oyi axis,in enugu we have igala and idoma infusion and some igala/idoma communities still speak these languages in enugu today,i know communities in nsukka area that are nupe and kwarra migrants,they are the reason why you have over 5000 Muslims in (ibagwa)nsukka axis today,while places like abia have strong ekoi influence,besides its wrong for people to say that some igbos migrated into kogi and benue states,the people you refer to as migrants in those states are actually in their ancestral homes but were cut out into those states during boundary demarcation. 1 Like |

For education purposes,this is trash,from the history of the odolu area you would discover that is was an igala general who resided in those areas that formed the make up of those villages,igala is the number one language undisputed especially in Akpanya.igbo is mostly a second language because most of the women married into those community are from enugu and environs this is so that brothers do not marry sister due to the close relationship of everybody and for closing since i know the aim behind this post. let me state that igala land has been reduced to a small state the igalas have once conquered more than half of present day igbo land ,there are many igala speaking tribes in igbo land from delta to anambra and so on .but is most me noted that by marriage the igalas have been made very close to the igbo so much so that the next highest King to the Atta Igala which is the ACHODU has igbo blood bigfrancis21: |
