In the video below, the young girl counts from one to ten in Ika, let's compare that to central Igbo

One:
Ika- Ofu
Igbo- Ofu

Two:
Ika- Ebuo
Igbo- Abuo

Three:
Ika-Eto
Igbo-Ato

Four
Ika- Eno
Igbo- Ano

Five:
Ika- Ise
Igbo- Ise

Six:
Ika- Isii
Igbo- Isii

Seven:
Ika- Esaa
Igbo- Asaa

Eight:
Ika- Esato
Igbo- Asato

Nine:
Ika- Itenani
Igbo- Itenani

Ten:
Ika- Iri
Igbo- Iri

Its obvious that Ika language is a dialect of Igbo and has nothing to do with Bini.

Ika North East LGA communities are more inclined to the Igbo's,while Ika South LGA communities have more similarities Bini traditions.

I can't just understand how these folks would wake up and say they are different from the Igbo's on the mainland! Kai! Just imagine what Nigeria has done to the Igbo race! Proudly nwa ekpeye!!

The Ika dialect is very clear. It's as Igbo as it gets

Igbo amaka

Ika is pure Igbo! Even up to igbanke in Edo state!
Those guys are all Igbo both in physical appearance, language and culture.
Most of the ika people I've met don't deny being igbo...

have you met me

I hear this better than nsukka

Bella55555:
have you met me

You are irrelevant!!!

For me if the people say they re Igbo nobody can claim otherwise.
If they disclaim there Igboness, that should remain their choice and prerogative.
Let this matter die please

mrvitalis:

They are all dialects of the Igbo language. Also in Edo state they have another Igbo race, they are called 'Ugo' there dialect has the same intonation with that of Ika.

I have an Ika friend,she never denial being Igbo,



i always imagine what would have happen if igbo state like Ebonyi state is in south south,by now they will be Ebonyi tribe not igbo.
if you are igbo but not from Ebonyi,you will find it hard to understand their dialect but you will understand Ika dialect.

south south igbos dialect are close to central Igbo,yet yorubas and hausafulanis has force some of them to believe that they are not igbo.
But as Ada Asaba am proud to be an Igbo lady.

Ika surnames are similar to Nsukka surnames

from agbon to ika to igbanke, they're more like binis but their appearance and language are igbos.
so don't twist the narrative, we are all omo bendel,

So how come their names are also Igbo? The king of Agbor's name is Ikechukwu

Ekpon community in Edo also speaks Ika. Just a slight difference with Igbanke. Ekpon is the last Ika town before Esan land.

you are very sick, very sick

All these landlock land grabbers have started claiming part of Edo as one of their nonsense low self esteem region.

Let it be known that Igboland starts and ends in south East, if they were really igbos they wouldn't have option for Edo.

Useless people

how can you force or even convince someone to deny their ethnicity? You people are just dumb low self esteem idiots

Jman06:

Better stay in that your small Igboland, any plan to annexed Edo state, what will happen to you people will be worse than the civil war
