Andre Uweh: yeah we have bini which to me is yoruba or yorubiod, ijaw, hausa and even igbo influenece and yes we are detribalised nigerians ![]() unless u we are provoked then we would call our warriors from ogbomosho and shagamu to help us in lagos we aworis are pro nigerians and very mixed with groups far and wide and consisder ourselves yoruba/bini now ika people are a bit naught to me maybe because i do not really understand there origin but from my finding i would consider them igbo anyday any time whether they like it or not once ur name is uche, ike, etc u are igbo to me and i know it might seem like ignorance but that is me and my view to it a bi u people want to divide till each man forms his own village as a country |

Lol @ AljHarem Uche. What a flip-flopper? |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by exotik: 8:24am On Jul 10, 2011 |
You are a no brainer at all. An Igboman in this forum is known as Gen-Buhari. Yet he is not Hausa/fulani nor a military man. Your argument is baseless. lol, so are u trying to tell me agbontaen is not a name answered by ikas, and omonuan/iguefi is actually from owerri? |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by exotik: 8:25am On Jul 10, 2011 |
And what does nduka mean? u tell me. |

Negro_Ntns: Please go and play lord of the ijebus cos u are begining to make fun of yourself here, First of all do you know what Anioma is? Second of all I am from Delta state Einstein so you are talking to the wrong person. Third of all stop all this your analogies cos they are senseless, the other day it was with x-men now its yoruba claiming umuahia ![]() |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by ezeagu(m): 10:27am On Jul 10, 2011 |
exotik: Let's start listing Bini people with Yoruba names. . . . |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by exotik: 11:00am On Jul 10, 2011 |
^ i am usen, and we don't have yoruba names, we have usen names and we are edo people. if yoruba people happen to share same name with usen people, it does not mean we are yorubas coz our usen identity is way older than the contemporary european created yoruba identity. so if anything, it is yorubas that should be claiming to identify as usen not the other way round. same way the ika identity is way older than the contemporary european igbo identity, so it should be igbos who be claiming to identify as ika not the other way round. usen people are not yorubas same way as ika people are not igbos. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by vicenzo(m): 11:03am On Jul 10, 2011 |
exotik: You should know,since you were quick to tell us the meaning of obaigbena. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by exotik: 11:03am On Jul 10, 2011 |
and the yoruba and igbo identity are bogus ones as far as im concerned. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by exotik: 11:05am On Jul 10, 2011 |
@vincenzo, u should know since u are the one claiming they are igbos |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by ezeagu(m): 11:13am On Jul 10, 2011 |
exotik: All I'm reading is nothing but excuses. Are there a significant amount of Bini people with what are known to be Yoruboid names or not? exotik: Really has nothing to do with Bini people with Yoruba (non-Edoid) names. Guess much of your people have names that have nothing to do with the rest of Edo people. ![]() |

dem_people: Onlytruth once said that alj harem is a yoruba guy from kogi or kwara state,i believe him,for that would explain his pro yoruba posts and his northern affliation. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by vicenzo(m): 11:21am On Jul 10, 2011 |
exotik: I asked because the guy that i know that answers obaigbena also goes by the name nduka,but you were quick to interprete obaigbena leaving nduka.Nduka= life is greater. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by exotik: 11:22am On Jul 10, 2011 |
@ezeagu, dat is what im telling u dat they are not binis. the edo people wit names that are "yorubic" are not binis. they have their distinct dialect, eg usen. binis that may have yoruba names are those who are married to yoruba people. maybe their mum or someone in their family is from one of the yoruba states. but no proper bini family have a "yorubic" name in their family, they all have bini names. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by exotik: 11:25am On Jul 10, 2011 |
@vicenzo, so he has an edoid name and has an ika name does not make him igbo. if anything he should be edo coz it is his surname and not first name that is edoid |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by vicenzo(m): 12:04pm On Jul 10, 2011 |
exotik: No,it means that he is an igbo with an edo ancestory,just like some aro people with ibibio surnames. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by exotik: 12:11pm On Jul 10, 2011 |
lmao!so if he traces his origin to edo wouldn't that make him edo? his ancestry leads him to edo state and not imo state so his is more edo than igbo, that why he is ika! |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by vicenzo(m): 1:54pm On Jul 10, 2011 |
exotik: Many igbo groups trace their ancestry outside igboland,there are some igbos who does not know the meaning of their surnames,what makes you igbo is not where you came from,rather its the language you speak as a first language,what unite all igbo groups is the igbo language,(which all of us speak a dialect of),and not where we came from. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by exotik: 2:07pm On Jul 10, 2011 |
vicenzo: and the language they speak is not igbo language, they speak ika language. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by AndreUweh(m): 2:18pm On Jul 10, 2011 |
exotik:and an Ijebu man speaks Ijebu language. In your logic, Ijebu is not Yoruba. Boy, give up and stop displaying further stupidity in this thread. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by ChinenyeN(m): 2:22pm On Jul 10, 2011 |
Exotik isn't getting the picture. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by exotik: 2:22pm On Jul 10, 2011 |
hahahahahahaha, u are the stuppid one nzonigga, and i don't care how the ijebus choose to identify themselves. if by tomorrow, they say they are not yorubas, wetin concern me. but as of today, a lot of ika people don't want to be called igbos, ozuo. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by exotik: 2:26pm On Jul 10, 2011 |
ChinenyeN: no, u are the one not getting the picture. the picture is clear from where im standing. |

Hmm. . .Still wondering why you all are still responding to exotik. He is not "Delta Igbo", "Bendel Igbo", or simply Igbo. You all are totally deviating from a good topic. This may sound a little tribalistic, but lets only reply to Igbos. Physics and maaaaybe Alj Haram is ok. The table is open to changes though so do speak you mind. ![]() ![]() |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by ezeagu(m): 3:13pm On Jul 10, 2011 |
exotik: So the struggle all us have when we see a Yoruba name only to find out the person is Bini does not exist? It's clear that you see how stupid your logic is when the tables were flipped. Try that naming nonsense again and I'll move on to Yoruba gods in Edoland, after that it's straight to Ewuare and then finally Oduduwa. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by ChinenyeN(m): 3:29pm On Jul 10, 2011 |
exotik:I'm just saying, maybe you simply need to learn to shut up and listen. This isn't about the identity, but about the categorization of people. If you don't get that, then you simply just do not get the picture. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by exotik: 3:34pm On Jul 10, 2011 |
^ huh? who cares who oduduwa was and please do move on to ewuare after all it was after the reign of the same ewuare that anioma lands were conquered. |
Re: Delta Igbo, Bendel Igbo: What Does That Even Mean. by exotik: 3:39pm On Jul 10, 2011 |
ChinenyeN: well, maybe u are the one who needs to listen and shut up because it is clear a lot of the people dont want to be categorized as igbo. |
