Fejoku: Igue festival is celebration of new yam festival... It is a celebration were the oba and his Chiefs makes pounded yam and egusi and offers it to the Gods and the ancestors for a new and fruitful year... In ancient times it was marked by the emergence of new yam, marking the end of the year and praises are then offered to the ancestors... Now it is celebrated every December 1 Like

Kundagarten: What is meaning of edo? A language or tribe? |

Nairalanders please don't be deceived. That village is next to mine. Or rather that clan is next to mine. We speak the same language. Same customs. We are not in any way related to the ibos. Our language is one of the edoid languages meaning its tied to the Edo language. Our ancestors migrated from Benin. This is something I have researched. The red cap is purely coincidental. Historically we are more connected to the northerners who tried to conquer us during the jihad but failed. 9 Likes 1 Share |

Naija9090:they are not Igbos abeg. This is the Aviawmu clan consisting of Ogbona, Irakho, Fugar.... They speak Etsako and are Edoid. They have a distinct history and like most Afemia people they trace their origin to ancient Benin. They have their own cultures similar to the Afemia people around them. They worship Osinegba and their ancestors and spirits. They are not too far from the River Niger with access to Idah but they are Afemia people. 5 Likes |

If you never mention Yoruba or compare your people to them, you won't have peace. It is noteworthy that you have made the Yorubas the standard you measure your people's achievements and shortcomings against. But that doesn't mean you should be this obsessed enough to spew trash. When the Yorubas were weaving and dyeing clothes, your forbears were still going about with naked with just a scanty wrapper around their waists BKayy: 4 Likes |

gregyboy:Igue festival is not New Yam festival. They are two different things. Igue from my findings is a festival for the celebration of a New Year. It is the equivalent of the Igbo Igu-aro festival. The difference is that while the Edo attach a lot of prominence to Igue, only the Umueri clan of Igbos give similar regard to Igu-Aro. The most prominent among all Igbo clans is the New Yam festival called Iri-ji, Iwa-ji or Ikeji. Other notable names for the festival is Ifejioku/ihejioku. This festival is specifically about Yam. This festival of the Ogbona people is not Igue. It is purely a Yam affair. The pictures are very clear. In all your Igue festival, there's no celebration of Yam. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

You've not finished ridding Edo state of cultism, witchcraft, prostitution and human trafficking you're busy laying claim to Lagos while your mates are being of impact to their communities..... shameless, stupid, e-community thug. 2 Likes |

[quote author=Kundagarten post=104556126] They're Edo people. We don't claim onitsha people even though they have Edo culture in onitsha. [/q NAME ONE OF THE EDO STATE CULTURE IN ONITSHA AND ASABA.. LISTEN VERY WELL EDO AS A STATE IS MULTI ETHNIC GROUP AND EDO STATE IS NOT A PARTICULAR ORIGIN OR SPEAK ONE INDIGINOUS LANGUAGE AND CULTURES, THERE WAS BINI'S IJAW, IGODOMIGODO, IGBANKE IKA,YORUBA,IGARRA,ISHAN E.T.C, TELL THE PEOPLE ONE UNIFIED CULTURE THAT ALL THE EDO'S PRACTICE AMONG THEMSELF.. YOU DON'T HEAR EACH OTHERS LANGUAGES OR DIALET, SO DON'T COME HERE TO MISLEAD AND DECIEVE PEOPLE'S IDENTITIES AND ORIGINS.. THE ONLY TRIBE THAT ARE NOT IN EDO STATE IS HAUSA - FULANIS |
