Remman:So the population of the igbos were already more than the population of the bini's(ikwerre) for the igbo language to i fluence the bini language(¡kwerre) because if one sheep i placed in the midst of a goat the sheep can never influence the goats rather it will be the other way round. 6 Likes |

LadyExcellency:Population of Ngwa is not relevant to the discussion It is a totally tangential point What was the population of the whole world in 1800 What was the population of Nigeria in 1900 Whether or not Ngwa us Igbo must start from definition What or who is Igbo? That is the starting point Was there ever a country called Igbo? How or what defines Igbo As far as I know it is a creation of The British and Nigeria 4 Likes |

The Igbos actually don't care. It's high time those calling them Igbos desist, they have been ascribing too much importance to them which have made their heads to swell. What have they achieved that made them think that they are soo important? Nothing. In Rivers state, they don't have anything. They are denying their root because of oil money and other benefits of oil rich region. They are so lazy, timid and unproductive. Their only trade is womanize, smoke and drink kaikai, nothing else they know or do. The Igbos calling ikwere people Igbos are bringing shame to the igbo nation, this must stop henceforth. Ikweres are useless to the igbo nation today, tomorrow and forever. They have nothing to offer. The lazy Ikweres are not Igbos. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

![]() The former Minister of Transportation said, “Ikwerre people should tell who they are and ignore all the stories being written about them. We will tell our story. Those who will play politics in Ikwerre land will project the image of the Ikwerre wherever they find themselves.” This same Ubima lizard that went on air to proclaim he is ibo just to curry political support...ofcourse he would not turn up to the event...How would he spin this one when he has dropped a mighty poop on the pulpit. Fear who no fear politicians. |

franchasofficia:Nothing funny about it Fulani migrated from Fura Jallon and stopped speaking Fulani They speak Hausa. That language storyis a non argument After all Heeboes are Hebrews from Jerusalem that stopped speaking Hebrew The Ikwerre language is a language not a dialect of Igbo That is an established linguistic fact 5 Likes 1 Share |

DomPerignon:Have you seen any Igbo dragging Ikwerre people for anything. Is Ikwerre people that is always making the noise every year in their gatherings. Who cares whether they are Igbos or not. The language they are speaking and their names gave them out as Igbos in Nigeria unless if they can start answering Bini names and start speaking Bini language instead of Igbo language they are speaking now. Is just like Okun person in Kogi denying his not a Yoruba. Although he can claim to be Okun man but his name and language he speaks gave him out as a Yoruba. That is the situation of Ikwerre people. 7 Likes |

Confused people. Be deceiving themselves. If not that Igbo southeast people are marginalized in Nigeria and if they are booming lots of minerals resources, they wouldn't have been capping nonsense ![]() Well, most ikwerre young people know where they originated from forget the politics of oil and criminality by the politicians and corrupt elders. They know the ancestral language they speak, the names they bear, the culture they are closest to. Meanwhile, the Igbos from todays's southeast region are not forcing them to belong, that's the fact. When the time comes their children will decide where they belong either Igbo/bini/Yoruba/Hausa, by then their won't be politics. 2 Likes |

Odingo1: When did Ikwere people attach themselves to you ? You are confusing Ikwere for the ever confused Asaba people who will claim SS in the morning and be claiming Biafra in the evening. Why did Ohaneze slate last year's Ibo day in PH but will later move it to Owerri after massive protest by Ikwere leaders?

Each time I hear this argument that "Akalaka" was a bini person, I fall off my chair laughing again. "Akala" is Igbo word for "Lines or prints". "Aka" is Igbo word for "Hand". Akalaka -> Finger prints. Yet someone with a human brain will come tell me the name is Bini. Ndi isi ojii eh ... their redemption is not near at all. ![]() 1 Like |
