Gajagojo:We are driving same point. Ikwerre has been there with the GBOs thus making them Igbos but the civil war effect came upon and they held it(denying) to survive. The "Ogbakor" in your lines means GATHERING. Nwanne what again are we dragging here?. |

StreetMedia:Ikwerre say they are not Igbo Rest It is not by force Languages resemble each other all over the world No big deal |

StreetMedia: The guy you're calling Nwanne is a Yoruba Muhammedian Go through his posts, it's all anti-Igbo |

herich: 1st. Your post is silly. 2nd. War with who or Who and who? 3rd. I don't know what you using Yoruba lifestyle to judge others ethnicity. |
Re: Ikwerres Deny Ancestral Affiliation With South-East by AnyanwuSK: 1:39pm On Jul 10 |
herich: How are you different from from that guy? Why are you insulting well meaning Ikwerre people because of a Yoruba troll? |

Gajagojo: The majority of Ikwerre Igbo-denialism articles I see here are not initiated by Igbos. It tends to either be started by an Ikwerre person or any of the anti-Igbo trolls to foment rancour, and then they start rambling about Igbos attaching themselves to Ikwerres. I don't know any Igbo person that gives much thought to the identity crisis of Ikwerres. The sort of strange mass psychosis triggered by Igbophobia that would drive Ikwerres to invent a clearly fraudulent Benin-origin story doesn't seem like a gap that can be bridged. |

Meanwhile, the quality of discourse on this forum seems to get worse everytime I visit. Nigerians have to be the lowest IQ people on the planet and we should really do humanity and its future a favour by just stopping breeding. |
Re: Ikwerres Deny Ancestral Affiliation With South-East by Gajagojo: 5:09am On Jul 12 |
Obi1kenobi: That is what you want to believe Ikwerre were recognised in the 1979 constitution Was that because of Fulani? Was it Yoruba that wrote Ikwerre bible or founded Ogbakor Ikwerre before Ohanaeze? Was it Hausa that dragged Ikwerre to Willinks Commission? Have you heard of Willinks Commission? This was set up as part of pre independence negotiations with the British to discuss protection of minorities BEFORE 1960 please tell us why did Ikwerre attend Willinks Commission? |
Re: Ikwerres Deny Ancestral Affiliation With South-East by Obi1kenobi(m): 10:34am On Jul 12 |
Gajagojo: None of these are relevant to anything I said. I'm referring specifically to how most of these articles originate on this forum, so that people like you can jump all over it to vent your anti-Igbo sentiment. And referring to the clearly fraudulent, laughable, delusional Benin-origin myth (triggered by their Igbophobic mass psychosis) invented by Ikwerres. They've basically been so driven to madness in their quest to prove they have no links whatsoever with the Igbo nation, that they've invented the most spurious of links to an alien Benin civilization of which there isn't even the most vestigial of traces in Ikwerre culture. Even my own Idemili and Onitsha kin in Anambra have more demonstrable Benin roots than Ikwerres. I have no problem with an Igbo-speaking clan claiming not to be Igbo. Language isn't all that defines identity, and Igbo consciousness is a fairly new development among the Igboid cluster from the late colonial/decolonisation era. Igbos are far from a monolithic entity and there is great historical and cultural and ethno-linguistic diversity among Igbo clans who have developed this common consciousness. Some of our ancestors have Edoid or Ekoid or Igala historical roots and there are Igbo speakers that I can barely comprehend a word of their language. It's a democratic choice, but you don't have to spin laughable myths about your roots and history like Ikwerre talebearers have spun about their mythical Benin roots. |

Obi1kenobi:Once again That is what you want to believe Ikwerre went to the Willinks Commission WHY? |
Re: Ikwerres Deny Ancestral Affiliation With South-East by Obi1kenobi(m): 10:49am On Jul 12 |
Gajagojo: Can you read? You just regurgitated the same nonsense after what I posted. I said it is fine for Ikwerres to claim to be a distinct ethnicity from Igbos. That's their right. What's the relevance of that to whether they went to the Willinks Commission? I'm referring to the fraudulent Benin-origin myth. |
Re: Ikwerres Deny Ancestral Affiliation With South-East by Gajagojo: 11:37am On Jul 12 |
Obi1kenobi: You are vomiting the same putrid verbigeration They went to the Willinks Commission proves they have always asserted their difference All your whining about "OTHERS" pushing an agenda is just paranoid rumination |
Re: Ikwerres Deny Ancestral Affiliation With South-East by Obi1kenobi(m): 3:24pm On Jul 12 |
Gajagojo: Again, what does this have to do with anything I said? Did I argue anything about whether they went to Willinks Commission or not? Did I argue anything about whether they asserted their difference or not? You're arguing against your own strawman constructs and rambling utterly irrelevant drivel. In a thread where I said they have the right to assert whatever identity they wish, you're still somehow acting like I said the opposite. Are you reetarded? |
Re: Ikwerres Deny Ancestral Affiliation With South-East by Gajagojo: 3:30pm On Jul 12 |
Obi1kenobi:You sound frustrated and slow witted |
Re: Ikwerres Deny Ancestral Affiliation With South-East by Obi1kenobi(m): 3:45pm On Jul 12 |
Gajagojo: Projection from a buffoon who can't even stick to a line of argument and just repeats the same witless drivel like a programmed robot. I get that you get your kicks from indulging your Igbophobia, but you can at least engage your brains while you do it. |
Re: Ikwerres Deny Ancestral Affiliation With South-East by Gajagojo: 3:53pm On Jul 12 |
Obi1kenobi:verbigeration |
Re: Ikwerres Deny Ancestral Affiliation With South-East by StreetMedia: 3:00pm On Aug 03 |
Gajagojo:A loser wont know hes losing till he falls dead...noro n'EZUZU |
