agbotaen: i dont have a job ,may be you can provide one for me,ooo igbo man . and its a little good news for igbanke people as the government of edo is constructing one of the major road in the town, if igbanke people keep agitating they will get development, i dont think it is mainly an ethnic thing, i live in lagos ,and the same thing is happenning to towns near the border of ogun and lagos -there is little development there .can we say the government of lagos or ogun are tribalistic ? the answer is no , as these communities are yoruba communities.we do not force people to become what they are not , ika are ikas period , was there a time ika people in their majortiy belonged to any igbo group ? the answer is no , but we do realise that you can find some ika people amongst igbo ethnic organisations saying they are igbos , that is ok, as we know they are mostly people from ika eastern communities like igbodo,ekwuoma ,so its ok , but for majority of us we are ika .ika has never claimed to be bini ,so do not black mail us , but we recognise our brotherly blood relationship with them since ancient times and this cannot be broken ( we bear edo names, share culture with them and kingship traditions),so also we share certain culture with igbos too .we cannot deny that ,but the ika man is neither bini nor igbo , we are just ika. our brothers and neigbhours the bini have accepted this ,but this seems too hard for the average igbo man to accept,so they argue and rain curses on those ika people who do not see them selves as being igbo. but will quickly sing the praise of an ika who says he is igbo.
as for me and my family and our kingdom the owa kingdom ,we are proud to be ika.

agbotaen: please carry your yeye igbo agenda commot from ika people , we are not delta igbo,but we are ika and that is it ,if some community says they are delta igbo in delta north that is ok, please stop rubbing what we are not on us, we did not follow igbo in 1967 ,so dont ever think we will folow you now, even during colonial period when some communities in delta north was celebrating igbo day ika people stopped it and did not participate as our ancestors knew they were not igbo, and it seems many igbo people cannot differentiate between a people who share relationship with them from being igbo, the question i keep asking this internet propagandist is when have you seen dein of agbor,obi of abavo and obi of owa or obi of umunede in ohaneze ndigbo? if these noble men keep their distance from the igbo organisation does it not tell you something ? those kings you see in ohaneze are the likes of the obi{asagba of asagba}, obi of ogwashi uku ,and ibusa and others -these kings are from aniocha and oshimili local govt.areas in delta ,i am not saying it is bad for them to be there ,but it is ok for them as majority of their subject approves of it and they believe they are igbos.but as for ika the monarchs keep away because majority of ikas do not approve of it and our history is replit with who we are and our founding fathers,and ika people are very historical people as each village or quarter or town in ika know where they migrated from, we do not assume or force people to believe in a common ancestory as we are heterogenous people migrating from different place ,but over hundreds of years have forged a common identity as ika nation.

agbotaen: it is you igbos that are inferrior in nigeria , always crying of maginalisation, i am proud to be ika and nothing in the world can make me igbo, i am quite aware of my history and as for any ika man that says he is igbo ,thats ok for him ,if it makes him proud of being a majority group, but i know majority of ika people reject this theory, or what else can i say in 1967 , majority of ikas rejected going along with the igbos , or is it agbotaen that made that up too? when the ika people stopped the celebration of igbo day in the 1930s in ika land , was i there ?
when igbanke said they want to join ika , did they ever mention that they want to join igbo ?
any way the internet is a place to write any you want ,if you like abuse me , it wont change my opinion ,
finally when nduka obaigbena was interviewed in newyork times and he said he is from ika tribe , did i also force him, we are very liberal people we do not lie, we know ika people migrated from many places,but we know where our core founders came from .

agbotaen: no igbo propagandist ,. i dont have a job , may be you can give me one as iam a journalist and the assistant secretary general for Nigeria wushu kungfu federation , a sports federation under the national sports commission

I've talked to each of the mentioned people personally. Eric Uwagbai, is a real open minded cool guy. They are all pretty good people though. I think though Gloria tries to distance herself from Igbo though. That type of attitude will only keep them in Edo state. I doubt she took all of the advice I gave her tho

@PhysicsQED, I read that some Bini princes have reiterated the fact the so-called Ijo are crewmen porters and migrant fishermen from distance place and had no iota of ancestral lineage with Bini as many goofy Nigerians had claimed.

I recall you smeared me in one of your previous posts on my stance that Ijo nation is a later day fantasy. It was shocker to read from your elaborated efforts that Ijo had no ancestral claim on Gelegele as Bini princes had stated.

@Post, it is a shame it took this long for the so-called Igbanke group to sniff reality of life from the tiny air. My people say that a person can not run away from his or her arse. There was a story on Samuel Ogbomudia who ran from Kaduna during the July 29, 1966 coup as he was being chased by Dimka and few drunken soldiers from the northern region of Nigeria. The story had it Ogbomudia ran passed his father’s compound, forgot his Bini connection and took refuge in Onicha. However during and after the civil war, he jolted his memory back and remembered his Bini links.

Any group such as Ika, Igbanke or Ikwerre which had cultural similarity with Ndigbo and had the audacity to publicly renounce such ancestral lineage with Ndigbo should not be allowed into the family fold of Ndigbo.

Ogbuefi1 is an Ika and a proud Igbo. He has been to many conferences where he has advocated for Igbo unity. His likes are the people we should look up to. He is a light to Igbo race.

agbotaen:
