ChinenyeN: lol balderdash. u keep exposing yourself as the day goes by. i keep noting your high adrenaline rush anytime the ijaw revisionist are being crushed by the Igbos on here. U have false claim of being Igbo (ngwa clan) but i have gone through your posts u're so Igbophobic and at the same time ijaw-centric. u get easily riled up anytime the ijaws are subdued in intellectual discourse such as this. you always hide your deception about being rational but in the through sense you are not. Igboid Bkayy mancoconut. slayforever thegodfather eastlink ekeaterego. thicksharon. And to the rest of my Igbo peeps here plz take note of this moniker he is not Igbo u can go through his post and topics. he is notorious for countering anytin Igbo on this forum and at the same pace claiming Igbo. His agenda has always been on the balkanization of Igbo land into sub tribes and he hates anytin that has to do with Igbo unity in general and has stood against it since the inception of nairaland. i must really recommend Pazienza the igboid himself and the rest of the Igbo warriors in here for turning the bit*ch into a shadow he is.. fucking ijaw sewge rat.. 18 Likes 3 Shares |

bomb24: I have known this Moniker since I joined this forum. And mind you, I joined this forum officially around 2007. Between 2011 to 2012 I had serious clashes with "her", the person behind that Moniker is a woman. I noted she was not Igbo very long time ago. I have a very high Igbophobic radar, it easily picks up a non Igbo vibe no matter how subtle or how clever the person wants to disguise. She has been on this matter long ago. In the past she tried to create identity crisis issue online for Ngwa people here and it took the effort of real Ngwa people here to silence her. She is an old timer here and have been playing this game for a long time. But I always had her in my radar. 17 Likes 3 Shares |

Some of these intellectual property needs to be trademarked. The tribe name Wakrike/Kirike is simply Nwa creek or creek. An Igbo product. Originally forwarded by Sir Ekealterego on this day 29th of November, 2021 and shall remain in his name, devoid of forgery or distortion or theft. Stamped and Sealed. 18 Likes 2 Shares |

Igboid:Lol. I think the earliest record of Pepple by Barbot in 1699 was Pepprell. This is on record. Here is an Excerpt: ...We had again a long talk with the king and Pepprell, his brother, concerning the rates of our goods and his customs. This Pepprell was a sharp black and a mighty talking black, perpetually making objections against something or other". I believe Pepprell is a British/Irish/Germanic name. There are still records of Pepple and Pepprell family recorded in the US. 2 Likes

Ekealterego:Ijoh are more relevant as they are the owners of Bonny. Ijohs are not slaves, rather, they are slaves merchants who served as middle men to European agents. The Aros are not exclusively ibos but a mix of both ibo and ibibio origin. The Aros are well known for slave raiding who raided and sold ibos to the ijohs who in turn delivered them in exchange to the Europeans agents. The Aros established a Confederacy over the interior ibo dwellers. They also sold a large number of ibos who were regarded as sacrifices or dedicated to the gods as punishment for their transgressions, markets and settlements were raided to keep a consistent supply of slaves. The Aros had treaties/slave trading agreements with the ijoh coastal dwellers as well as the calabar merchants who operated at Calabar port, which served as another port for ibo slaves. Bonny & Elem Kalabari are both ijaw towns that served as slave ports through which the Aros supplied a large number of ibo slaves. 1 Like |

She has been on this for a very long time and tnx to clannishness of some of our peeps back then here who were so fixated on baseless superiority topics on who was Igbo and who was not thereby giving room for intruders to invade our space, history, unity and create unnecessary identity crisis and hate towards our kin.

Ekealterego: You are correct. That's a pendant worn by ancient Eze Nris around their necks. The ICHI marks are so obvious. The actual cutting is carried out by Umudioka people, as Nri people were not meant to touch blood, so they can remain sacred. But the sanctification of the initiate must be carried out by an NRI priest. Th Umudioka people ( of the MGBURU-ICHI fame)were collectively a major pillar of the NRI civilization, along with the Awka blacksmiths. Back in those days, when an NRI priestly party was traveling to any part of Igboland for any priestly duties, there will be Umudioka facial cutters and Awka blacksmiths in the party. The Umudiokans carried out the actual facial cuttings for the ICHI, while the Awka blacksmiths produced the NGWU AGILIGA for the Nze and Ozo title takers, all of whom were ordained by the NRI priests 10 Likes 2 Shares |

SlayerForever: Just to put my evidence more forward. Kirike or krike (how wakirike/okirika people, call their language or themselves) is the same as in the older English word for Creek or the French word. You know what, Exactly how it is called in Dutch. The Dutch call Creeks, Kreke but sounds like "Kirike". I have uploaded the names. So, Wa "kirike", means "Child of the creeks" Note, most of these coastal places had European names from Lagos to Warri to Calabar. 9 Likes 3 Shares

Putindbutt: Brother, I have uploaded at least 10 docs from 1699 to 1840s showing the origin and trade relations in Bonny. Not one accounted Bonny as having Ijo origin but rather Igbo, all of them!! No, Ijohs did not hold sway in Bonny nor Old Calabar, rather Ijohs were SLAVES as well.. The Ijohs were subservient to the Aros. I have uploaded countless books too with nature of the interactions between Ijoh and Aros too. The areas around New Calabar and Krike were first multi-ethnic. Also, if you read well, you will see the three different accounts from 1823 and 1840 and 1841 showing the King Amachree and King People were both Igbos.. They said this by themselves. I know it is hard to unlearn years of belief in the Ijawcentric Algoa's account but we have known what the true history stated long ago. It is all there in neutral history books from Neutral accounts. 16 Likes 3 Shares |

DitariDisciple2:na small boy you be. U don't know anything. I see my response to you as a waste of time but I just have to do it. Igbos own rivers state most especially porthacourt. After the war, some minority tribes started taking over igbos lands and property in rivers state which made many igbos to claim they were not igbos just to still live in their ancestral land and have access to their properties. It was within this time that Ikwere was created by Obi nwanali just so they can get job and retain their properties as ikwerre people instead of being seen as igbos. Read about this from this link https://www.nairaland.com/6695300/meet-man-established-ikwerre-rivers I know u are a fulani sponsored miscreant that moves around to post nonsense just to spit on the Igbos. Una plan na moi moi. Igbos knows where their land starts and end and no one will be left behind when we enter biafra. Even minority ijaw can join through a referendum. Urobo have more population than Ijaw but they are not making noise like this. 90% of Rivers state is Igbo land and are igbos Referendum will decide. No one would be forced to join biafra. Ijaw, Itshekiri, Urobo can join Biafra which is opened to all. Take note that Biafra is not an Igbo thing. Cross river and akwaibom are biafrans too. You this fulani government paid detractors will soon get tired and run 3 Likes 1 Share

ChinenyeN: While I am not really an expert in Kalabari traditional institutions, you didn't really provide any proof that Bonny adopted the Amanyanabo title from Kalabaris and Okrika. Also if I am not mistaking, I believe both Kalabari and Okrika have ancient Igbo links. In fact, it's clearly documented that the Kalabari ruling family was of Igbo ancestry. Maybe these Igbo-influenced areas had two kings initially, which Bonny also adopted, hence the AMANYANABO title. But they all now have one king. I was reliably informed that the Ijaw word for king is PERE. More research needs to be carried out, especially to determine the veracity of the ancient Igbo links with Kalabari and Okrika 9 Likes 1 Share |

DitariDisciple2: Some Igbo speaking Brass youths chased him away from his palace a few months ago, and raped his ugly daughters while looting his stolen wealth. He may have returned, but he could be attacked by his Igbo speaking subjects in the near future. If some of his people are Igbo-speaking, I'm not surprised he uses Amanyanabo. Brass and Nembe are not core Ijaw territories, so the title of their traditional rulers cannot be a definitive proof 9 Likes 1 Share |

Ekealterego:-Ijohs were slaves too - Ijohs were subservient to Aros -.Bonny is ibo origin. Those afforementioned were the lies you spread around yourselves, very unfortunately. Being a king of ibo descent in a town with visible ijoh imprints is never a proof of ownership. Ijohs are the kingmakers and have never being in denial of the ancestry of an ijawnized ibo to whom they bestowed their titles. Any other charade to downplay the ijoh- Bonny ownership is just a mere wankfest at ego tripping. I have taken my time to read over all the screenshots/ documents posted and I haven't yet seen a stronger conviction that has proven the contrary. I only see some keyboard-happy revisionists trying as much as possible to amplify alternative truths. |

ThickSharon123:Okirika is not ethnically Igbo today. Many of their quarters are of Igbo ancestors, you can obviously tell that their ancestors and some quarters still maintain some of those traditions. Even Talbot, mentioned that their Elders stated that they came from Afam in Ndoki. However, those areas around New Calabar, "Kalabari and Okirika" were like towns with quarters from different places. Many were originally Ibibiod, some Ijoh and some Igbos.. It was at an intersection between these 3 main groups and of course with some groups with almost functionally extinct languages today. I will give you example, Ateke Tom gave Wike chieftaincy title today, and you can see the traditional chief attire the ardoned him with. 4 Likes 1 Share
