veuttoutlemonde: They actually all can be classified as igboid to me but we have two dichotomy here because some groups profess more their unique identity while some have embraced igbo as theirs. Since you cannot force identity on any group then igbo proper became an invention to group the others who have chosen to use igbo in place of their unique identities into one group (problem solved ). We all started with our unique identities but along the course of history with the coming of the whiteman the option of going with igbo as one came to reality. Some accepted while some did not, the civil war in some way and ethnic perception within nigeria has helped to shape the present reality. We can go about it in a sensible way like adults or just keep on abusing ourselves if we try to shy away from reality and facts. 6 Likes |

The issue of people denying their history is all but for selfish reasons. Self determination or even nationhood can be achieved without self denial. 1 Like |

Pharoh: I do not think I have ever met an Igbo (Igboid, if you prefer)-speaking person from the South-South who understands the situation, as clearly as yourself. To be fair, most South easterners appear not to understand it, too - with the way many of us often insist that the Igbo ethnic identity was already a well-developed idea, prior to the 20th century. 4 Likes 1 Share |

veuttoutlemonde: What history and how far back can you go?. . . do you know that the more you go back in history the more you realize that igbo, yoruba and edo used to be one but see them today fighting each other like fools. Radoillo: Thanks and i don't mind whichever name is used as long as the usage is clearly understood. Studying history and looking at facts objectively would have helped but i believe some just want to stick to their present understanding because of the Nigerian factor. We all came to the world naked and going to leave it naked be you ukwuani or igbo. We can all come together under one banner or have different banners in a very strong cooperation as one family no matter the various uniqueness. we only just need to understand each other, come to an agreed understanding and move on to better things. I belong to every igbo group you will ever find on facebook but people just think that promoting ukwuani uniqueness means someone hates the word igbo. |

stynhaq: Lmfaooo. See how the wannabe swirm. Bendel was never called Benin state. Bendel was name of the state and benin was just the capital, not the whole state. Bendel state consisted of common day delta and common day edo state. Agbor was never the capital of bendel thus never part of Benin. Try and sell another story.

UnknownT: I'm not sure of lost Igbo speaking towns. However, there are stories of Igbo migrants into Idoma, Igala, Cross river areas who settled in those areas and are today identifying as among those areas. Vice versa for certain Igala and Idoma people who settled in Enugu state (Nsukka area esp). As for an entire Igbo-speaking town getting lost to some foreign language, I'm not so sure about that. 1 Like |

Ishilove:Otofe! Never knew there are elements of yoruba in ukwuani. I am aware of the influence of Bini in the language of most parts of anioma. I used to think that the yoruba dialect among the anioma people was from those igala/olukunmi (don't know if I'm spelling it right) people in places such as ugbodu and ukwu nzu (not sure of the spelling) |
