I'm with you on this one. There should be no discrimination for any minority group anywhere in this country.

In those same town, you have Igbo being spoken too.

The same is the case in Kogi, a mixture of Igbo and their Igala brothers.


You can walk from where Igala is spoken and the next village will be speaking Igbo, just like that and often the people can speak both Igbo and Igala in all the vilages in Kogi and Anambra.


You cannot separate them with border, due to mixture.

Anambra is 100% Igbo.

Simply because those so called Igala understand and speak Igbo too.

They are border people and that is understanable.

If you are complaining about few communities in Anambra that are mixed with Igbo speaking Igala, then what do u expect Igbo people to do where they have entire local government areas in Kogi that are Igbos?

Igbo that were delibrately taken to Kogi to make us look smaller.


The indigenous ndi Igbo that are inhabitants in Kogi state, occupies Kogi East which is by far the most populated and the largest by its land mass. They are found under these local government areas:
1. Akpanya
They are under the Igalamela/Odolu Local Government Area which shares boundary with Enugu state in the east and Niger River in the west. With 95% of the locals speaking Igbo and the remaining 5 percent are conversant with the Igala native tongue. Some of the Igbo natives who have converted to Muslims are majorly found in this community.
2:Nwajala
It is made up of other communities like; Umuoye, Ubulie-Umueze in Ibaji LGA, in the south of Kogi state. The community is separated from Edo State by the Niger River.
3. Ebokwe
It consists of communities like; Amaeke, Amadiefoha, Amankpo, Amauwanu camp, Amaufulu, which are all under Igalamela/Odolu LGA.
EkeAvurugo
The people of EkeAvurugo are under Ibaji Local Government Area, they are bilingual as they speak Igbo as a first language and Igala as a second language, this is as a result of living together with the Igalas.
5. Onicha-Igo
This is a community in Ofu LGA that is located in the central part of Kogi State. They are indigenous Igbo-speaking natives.
6. The Odolu Community
The people in Odolu community are also bilingual but in their case, the predominant language is Igala while the Nsukka Igbo tongue is adopted as their second language.
Being a minority ethnic group has not stopped the indigenous Igbos from living their lives like every other person in the state. They are recognized for their agricultural prowess and as traders who sells off products from their harvest. They have four (4) market days which are, Eke, Oye, Afor, and Nkwo, just like the Igalas.Due to modernization, some of them have left farming to other trades like that of Spare parts of vehicles to other merchandise and are dominating the market exceptionally well, thereby contributing their quota to the economic growth of the state.
In terms of politics, they are given the right to exercise their franchise just like every other person residing in Kogi state, regardless of their ethnicity. The present deputy governor of the state in the person of Edward David Onoja is from an Igbo speaking community, Odidoko-Emonyoku in Ogugu District, to be precise.
The indigenous Igbo communities still uphold their culture and traditional values as their brothers and sisters in the Eastern part of Nigeria. Some of their cultural practices are similar to that of the Igala natives. For instance, the Ofala festival that is used to commemorate the Kingship of the Obi and New Yam Festival has peculiarities to the Ata coronation of the Igala kingdom.

As they both entail music and dance as they celebrate, symbolism which is evident in their traditional regalias (eagle feathers on their caps represent strength, the horse tail, and a machete in their hands) there is also the breaking of kola nut which signifies peace and oneness, and the use of masquerades to add color to the day.

I'm watching Igbos disgracing themselves publicly. Later they will accuse us Yoruba people of hatred towards them.
These guys don't even love themselves! Yet they expect Zulus in far away South Africa to like them. How's that even possible?
