9japride:The truth is that you really don't know anything about Edo State else you should have been able to decipher from my argument that you are actually engaging a native of Akoko-Edo. I have repeatedly challenged you to mention the indegenous Yoruba settlements in Akoko-Edo but you keep saying you are waiting for someone from there to assist you with the names of such phantom Yoruba towns and villages. How come you claim to have lived in Edo State and know much about it yet you don't know the names of the Yoruba villages you claim to know in the state? Isn't that a self contradiction? There are actually a total of 48 towns and villages in Akoko-Edo and no single one of them has Yoruba as mother tongue. These are a people who freely voted to be carved into the Midwest in the 1963 plebiscite. How come they chose not to remain with their supposed kit and kin in the Old Western Region? 2 Likes |

9japride: You will wait till eternity because there are really no Yoruba speaking people in Akoko-Edo. The Akoko tag in the name of the place is purely geographical and has nothing to do with the origin of the people. In fact they adopted that name post colonization meaning that before colonial era they were not known as such |

babaolofin:Look at this idiot and slowpoke speaking with authority and even using abusive language about an issue he knows nothing about. Do I look like an Igbo in your eyes? It takes an idiot like you to claim you know a people more than they know themselves. Pro-obasanjo Yorubas like you are even worse than Ipobians when it comes to propaganda. Did you ask where it is written that Akoko-Edo people separated from Yorubas? You mean you never read about the 1963 plebiscite? So the mere fact that an Igbo man like Alvan Ikoku was in Awolowo's political camp throughout his life makes Igbos to become Yorubas? Aren't there currently Igbos in Tinubus camp? Weren't there Yorubas in Azikiwe's camp? Since when has political association come to define ethnicity? Below are some indegenous Akoko-Edo names: 1 Emmasealu 2. Oyoifo 3 Ubani 4 Ozioma 5. Oshidu 6.

Deadlytruth:[color=#006600][/color] It's OK. Though, I used to think those towns close to the boundaries of the Yoruba states have indigenous Yoruba speaking tribes in Edo State. Thanks for your input. |

Deadlytruth: Though I never said I live in Edo State, but I have stayed in other Niger Delta States close to Edo. Ever since I was young I usually hear some names sounding like Yoruba who are indigenous to Edo. Thanks for the information, maybe I had a wrong perception about the Akoko Edo people concerning the Yoruba heritage. |

sharone21: An Anioma man was a benin man? How did you come up with this story? What you are calling Anioma is just the area the indigenous Igbo speaking people in Delta state reside. The Anioma area has 4 zones, Ukwani, Ika, Oshimili and Enuani. The Oshimilis and Enuanis do not deny being Igbo. If you go to the Palace of the King of Asaba, Obi Chike Edozien, and tell him he is from Benin, he will chase you away from his Palace with cutlass for denying him his Igboness. Or will you go to Ibusar(Igbo-Uzo) and tell them they are from Benin when the name of their town is Igbo, their ancestral language is Igbo? It is only with Ika's and Ukwani's you get some ethnic confusion because they have some Edo minorities amongst them, but that does not mean they are from Edo. The questions you have to ask your self is, if Anioma is Benin, why do they speak Igbo? Why do they have Igbo surnames? And why do their Kings and Royal houses bear Igbo names? Agbor is very close to Edo state, why does the king of Agbor, Ikenchuku Keagborekuzi, have an Igbo name? Somebody speaks Igbo as his ancestral language, has an Igbo surname, his town probably has an Igbo name, you turn around and say the person is from Benin? How? |

gidgiddy: From what you said, it means 1) You ( Igbos) bear names like Okanikpe, Bienose, Oshiebuni, Kpamiose etc 2) Clarification: Anioma language is not Igbo per se, also some of its languages are taught in its schools 3) It means Igbos also have Benin ancestry since they are not sure if they are from Israel, NRI or Igala ancestry. Finally, Eze China(Umu Chima) is the Father of Anioma people up to Onitsha( those who left the palace) but don't get it twisted, his name has nothing linked to Igbo. Aniomas are distinct from Igbo even if there had been some cultural influence, intermarriages and settling of Igbos in the area many years ago. Aniomas are from Benin. Don't be dictating where we are from. Though, some Igbos who have lived in Anioma land and claim to be Anioma will say they are Igbos- they are not the ORIGINAL settlers. Besides, unless you are blind, the Anioma man does not behave like the Igbo man. Most of those spoiling Nigeria's ( very desperate) name outside are usually not the Anioma man but the Igbo man irrespective of name similarities.' My question is: If you are a Nigerian by blood and your family settled in South Africa many years ago, are you South African by ancestry because you now bear a South African name and speak South African language fluently?Name and Language IS NOT ancestry biko. The Anioma man is very adaptable and peaceful. He may live in Lagos for years and you will not hear the Lagosians say he is taking their land rather, he will blend so well that he may even appear like a Yoruba man and possibly speak Yoruba well. 1 Like |

sharone21: Anybody can claim that any people are from anywhere. What matters are the facts on the ground or what one can prove. Anioma is not a tribe, ethnic group or language. It is just a word created in the 70's to denote the Igbo speaking people of old Bendel state, now Delta and Edo states. If you say that these Igbo speaking people of Delta state, sometimes known as Delta Igbos, you have to answer some questions. Why did these Benin people drop Benin language and adopt Igbo language? Its not like the Anioma area is very far from Edo state, so why would they leave their ancestral Benin language to take up another language when their ancestral home is not far away? Why did these Benin people drop their Benin surnames for Igbo surnames? Im Anambra man but I watch movies made in Agbor in the Ika dialect. Agbor is just nextdoor to Edo state. But apart from the Ika people of Igbanke in Edo state, nobody in Edo can watch Ika movies and understand anything they say. How is it that Agbor that us next to Edo state has a King with an Igbo name? The king of Agbor is Ikenchuku Keagborekuzi. All the kings of the Anioma area have Igbo names and surnames. Why did all these Royal houses drop their Benin names and surnames for Igbo if they are from Benin? Why dud they do this? Who do villages in Anioma have Igbo names? Sn example is "Umunede" which they say a Bini prince called 'Ede' named after himself and descendants. Its an Igbo name. How can a Benin Prince leave Benin to go somewhere and name the place in Igbo language? A language he could not have known? Thats not possible. The Anioma area are Igbos with an Edo minority. But because they have an Edo minority does not make them Edo. |

gidgiddy: Igbo man, BELIEVE whatever you choose to believe. Don't come and rewrite history for us when you know the Binis( at least) have a lot of documented truths. Okay, since Igbo is now Bini too( lol) do you people get special invitations from Oba of Benin as part of their sons in diaspora( ie outside Bini soil) whenever there is an occasion? Go read Igbo history well to know where you REALLY originated from and leave humble, peaceful Anioma people out of una & Biafra matter. Peace! 2 Likes |

gidgiddy: Who determines what is Igbo name and what is not? All these your claims and assertions make you guys look desperate and very cheap. Philipinos, Portuguese, South America's etc have Spanish names but it doesn't make them Spanish. Even within spain, you have some groups like Catalan that have similar names, language and culture as the Spanish but don't identify as same. You guys should stop this public disgrace and allow people to be who the are or want to be. You can not force people to be who you want them to be. We are in the 21st century. Search online and you'll see that it is only Igbos that are always about who is Igbo or igboness and similar claims. Show that you have a little self respect by letting others be. 1 Like |

Tranquill: Don't be ridiculous. Igbo name and language is unique. Philipinos speak Spanish because we know they were colonized by the Spanish. Portuguese and Spanish are basically pidgin forms of original Latin language of the Romans that ruled over them. On the case of your Ikwerre, Ndiigbo never ruled you. And moreover, your people are supposedly Bini migrants and we know that language they speak in Bini today is entirely distinct and unintelligible with Igbo language. You couldn't have gotten your current language from Bini. Your Igbo sounding names couldn't have been from Bini either. Ndiigbo never ruled you too. So rationally speaking, there is an Igbo name. An any Bini migrants who bear anything similar to them borrowed it from Ndiigbo and couldn't have manufactured it from thin air. 4 Likes |

Re: 2023: Igbo In Delta, Rivers Can’t Use Southeast Slot, Says Anyim by Tranquill: 3:02am On Feb 06, 2021 |
gidgiddy: The problem you guys have is that you don't know that Ikwerre people do not bear over 90% of Igbo names, the reason it is easy to identify those 419, drug smugglers and rats scattered all over the globe as Igbos. Show me any Ikwerre person that has been caught with drugs with Igbo names. You are only highlighting one peculiar traits amongst you Igbos that differentiates you with Ikwerre people. Ikwerre people don't indulge in such level of criminality and other vices that you hardly condemn as evil in your society. 1 Like |
