Nigeria major languages are classified into three wa for Yoruba and related , zo for Hausa and related bia for Igbo and related, Once u said bia for come u re Igbo, irrespective of oil, politics and location, Igbo is a nation of many dialect in Enugu alone their about 54 dialect, there is nothing that makes someone from Anambra more Igbo than someone from Rivers , Delta Ebonyi or even Abia, every language have dialects it's in Yoruba , Hausa Come to Igbo Nsuska has their dialect, Ezza has nkanu has Nike, nnewi , Ngwa ohafia Akpugo etc but what's make one Igbo is found in culture , mode of dressing, deity, market days, names food and dialect similarity if Igbo , I am an Ezza man and 98 percent of ikwerre language(dialect) is d same as mine I can speak it without stress 10 Likes |

Paraman:you woukd think they are attaching themselves to ikwere people because they love them but nope.. They have refused to develop their 5 plots of land because they lack the mental capacity to do it. So they started attaching themselves to every igboish sounding name in south south because of oil and port harcout. It's totally shameful. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Abagworo: The Ikwerres can claim whatever ethnicity they want, they can even claim to be Chinese. However, claiming to be Bini descendants is false for two reasons. Had they been descendants of Bini migrants, the name of their villages would have been Bini. The first thing migrants do when they arrive in a virgin land to settle is to give the place a name in the language they came with. I have not seen any Ikwerre community that has Bini name Another reason why the Bini descendant claim is laughable is that the Oba of Bini himself said that Ikwerres are Igbos On page 19 of Oba Erediauwa's book "I Remain, Sir, Your Obedient Servant", he said that Ikwerres and Etches are typical Igbos. Why would he say this if indeed Ikwerres and Etches descended from his own kingdom? 9 Likes 1 Share

CyrusVI:That's my thought too. I cant force anyone to be my brother. If they say that they are not Igbo then so be it. After all the ones after the Niger River readily agree that they are Igbo and it's quite clear that they eagerly identify with their Igbo identity then they are my brothers. Have you seen an Asaba man telling you that he is not Igbo? All these talks everyday of repeating the same thing over and over again. Arguments that have been there before I was born. If an Etche man says that he is not Igbo so be it. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Remman:Your story does not make sense African culture is patriarchal which means children take their father's name, language and culture. So how does it make sense that you guys took your mother's names, language and culture. Secondly, what were you guys looking at when strangers started renaming your land It just seems as if you want to blame Igbo for everything 10 Likes |

Well More like saying badagry and lagosians .. same as yorubas having different indigenous tongues Tongue differs just like when abakiliki man tongue, nsukka man, aba/ngwa tongues, anambra tongue, imo States get like 3 different tongues, orsu, mbaise and co tongues etc We all speak differently in our dialect but we all have a common language which we all refer to as the general igbo language Well, I don't think it's right to force anyone But we need to checkmate this people because how come they speak general igbo and have igbo names and cultures yet they aren't together Well my problem for now na this bill or creating orlu state, I no wan find myself outside ANAMBRA STATE na that one go pain me pass Make them just leave am the way e dey than bring confusion, we've been like this for yearsssss and we no die If them dey find wetin to created,make them create oduduwa republic, arewa republic and BIAFRAN and other states wey wan divide 2 Likes |

Ikwerre are pure Igbos but due to politics to remain relevant in Nigeria they are saying they are not Igbos. There is no way intermarriage will make them to forget their Bini languages and names. How can a group of migrants from Bini forget their names,language and Bini cultures and take up Igbo ones with no traces of their Bini ancestral heritage. Are they weak men, that have not happen anywhere in the world. Hausa in the north and Yorubas in Kogi and Kwara maintain their languages despite Fulani occupation and intermarriages. 5 Likes |
