Suddenly Ameachi is igbo?? The same man who sent alot of igbo traders packing in mile1 market undecided . Some people and Hypocrisy sha, dude never wants to be referred to as igbo. What's the big deal about speaking the language?? Okrikans, Bonny Opobo etc speak igbo, does that make them more igbo than GEJ. By virtue of marriage the President is Igbo; Mama Peace is indeed igbo not the Okrika she claims

NoreenUG:


they like to answer their native names? do their towns also answer those names? or is Rumuokoro an intelligible word in "Ikwerre language"?
yes it s their pronunciation and they chose to pronounce it dat way cos tongues and languages are different according to what my granny said..
Anambrarian and imo don't spell water as the same..
So let the ikwerres maintain the way they spells their names cos it s intelligible to us...

It will be easier to call a Calabar man brother than to call Amaechi one. Rotimi has never associated with the Igbos, let us remind him that HE IS ON HIS OWN NOW.

Oga you are Ikwerre and stop insulting the Igbo language by your funny attempt to speak it.

I thought you said Abia State and Jonathan connived to steal oil wells belonging to Rivers State.

How come you had the effrontery to go to Abia State and spread falsehood?




He went to abia state because he never said such., maybe the media made you to believe he said such.

He did not spread falsehood, he was only saying what you don't want to hear.

GMB all the way. tongue

Amaechi is just catastrophic..How could he possibly have insinuated that Ikwerres are Igbos because he intends to canvass support for Buhari..This is an affront on me and other Ikwerres past and present who have over time, painstakingly defined Ikwerres as a separate entity from the Igbos.

Igbos shouldn't become gleeful over Amaechis outburst cos we all know he has a penchant for controversy..Ameachi could turn up tomorrow in Osun or Ondo or whatever Yoruba state and claim to be Yoruba as he bears Rotimi as his name..

This particular controversial utterance, should like others, be taken with a pinch of salt.
don't worry Mr hope kos we Igbos ve rejected him and his claims! angry
its better I've neighbors like the Mmoño of AKS than ve brothers like the ikwerre who'd betray me in time of trouble. tell your governor to face front and stop spewing lies to score cheap points!

amaechi is just a friggin lazy ikwerre loudmouth, nothing more. he will never never be igbo.

Should Nigerians be proud of Igbos??

Tribe of Hardworkers! We know how they regularly tarnish the image of our country with their incessant 'hardwork' as they strive for 'excellence' in their various fields of criminal endeavours..That uncountable Igbos are jailed and also executed regularly abroad is an indication that crimanality is embedded into the DNA of Igbos.

'An Igboman is a honest man especially with matters not unconnected to money'..Igbos are so dishonest they used them as illustration in Economics textbook.

I will not lie, i have never met an Igboman who didnt attempt to cheat someone else..it is generall acknowledged amongst Igbos as being brainy and smart and sharp..Slowly but surely, Igbos are gradually making themselves a people unfit for positions of trust.

i dont give a damn about any ikwerre voice. these face-changing iddiots should stop claiming igbo when it suits them.
In nigeria, they swear upon their mothers' graves that they are not igbo, but once they step out of the country (particularly USA), the same creatures are all over igbo diaspora cultural groups, proclaiming themselves to be igbo just for membership. i am speaking from experience here.

these ppl need to stick to one script abeg. ikwerre ppl are not my brothers and sisters.

"igbos shouldn't become gleeful"? Pls get it straight. no igbo is gleeful over this news and the replies from igbos on this thread are enough to make it clear.
we are embarrassed to be associated with u pple and ur endless identity crises. igbos and ikwerres are not the same. established and accepted. we have nothing in common, so pls tell ur dumb son ROTIMI (talk about identity crisis) amaechi to keep his campaign within the ikwerre ppl and their 3 LGAs. thank u for ur compliance.

This statement will make lots of igbos vote against GMB.


Meanwhile, General buhari emerged as heads of states in the year 1983 to 1985.

GDP
1983: 35.45billion USD
1984: 28.5billionUSD
1985: 2.87billionUSD

Total reserves (% of total external debt)

1983: 7.12
1984: 9.41
1985: 10.14

public debt
1983 :$37,951,000.00
1984 :$32,316,000.00
1985 :$449,545,000.00

GNI

1983 :$43,080,310,000
1984 :$32,767,430,000
1985 :$30,361,160,000

I think we should treat these for now, these are the outcome of buhari's disciplinary administration. I am yet to discuss how net profit was reduced in buhari's tenure. Figures should be confirmed

Brother, you need to be schooled? GEJ is not Igbo, he has never claimed to be Igbo. His name is EBELEMI (Ijaw), not Ebelechuckwu. He only shortened to Ebele in 2011 to DECEIVE ignorant Igbo folks!!! As for Okrika, abeg we are 700% Ijaws, we are not Igbos and never claimed to be one at any time. Maybe you need to take some history books. Please stop misinforming the public

Re: Amaechi: I’m Igbo, Jonathan Who Says His Name Is Ebele Can’t Speak The Language by Deltagiant: 10:30pm On Jan 09, 2015
Funny turn of events indeed. At the end of the civil war in 1970, the victorious federal vandals led by General Gowon set a pre condition for the Ikwerres to be admitted in the newly created Rivers state. And which was that Ikwerre must renounce their Igbo ethnicity. Led by their highest ranking politician, Dr. Frank Ekeh, the Ikwerres of the former Owerri division did just that.

Now, exactly 45 years after, the Ikwerres led by another highest ranking political office holder, Chukwubike Amaechi, are in a new drama. Today, before another Northern civil war officer, Gov. Amechi has denounced the 1970 affidavit to mean that they are now Igbo.

Amaechi, you're welcome, but not without due respect to other proud Ikwerres that are true to their Igbo roots. BTW, what qualifies someone as an Igbo is not limited to speaking the language. IFE EJI ABU IGBO ERIKA! And GEJ the Ijaw is very much Igbo than you today. Nevertheless, you're welcome.

Its good i know where you stand..You, like Amaechi, like Uche Okwukwu are the sort of people who if allowed will make the Ikwerres look like the directionless, self-confusing Ogonis who are one huge collective skalar quantity.

The Ikwerres though small, have a direction as to how to channel our tribal 'foreign-policy' in this huge amalgamated entity called Nigeria.

Igbos could be half of Nigerias population for all i care, and are obviously closely related to Us in language and culture, but they have demonstrated time upon time to be an unorganised people and small time players in the Nigerian political space.

We Ikwerres have defined the direction of our political destiny and that pathway must be followed without the Igbo casting their political cluelessness on us..If and when the igbos decide to tow the path of political Unity of purpose and become serious contenders in Nigerian politics we may have to review our relationship with them.

Until then.
