HopeAtHand: "The lady doth protest too much, methinks" . The discussion here was an innocuous one about language (and dialects) and you jumped in and started you usual noise about Igbos "claiming" your people. For the records, I don't see anything that indicates that the Ikwerres have any Igbo ancestry. Na beans! I don't know how you guys started speaking your corrupted version of my language but the earlier you went back to your Edo language or whatever your ancestors spoke, the better for everyone.

ukwuani/Ndokwa mbeneniooooo!!! Dd federal government recognises igbo,ukwuani,ikwerre,epkeye,ogba and ika as different ethnic nations but are languages with d same linguistical similarity thats is y they are classified as igbo and igboid languages... Dat is wat igbos should understand.....we also hav edo and edoid languages which are edo,ishan,etsako,owan,urobo,isoko... We also hav yoruboid languages,etc d igbos should learn to repect peoples ethnicty....remember uti nwachukwu of BIG brother, he is my brother from Ukwuani/Ndokwa nation not an igbo boy..NOTED remember omawunmi of BOTTOM bELLE fame,she is an itsekiri not a yoruba girl..NOTED..remember me, im a delta boy from ukwuani.....ishISHIEG-WARRI!!!!!yoo |

I guess iv explained it right....im Ukwuani by tribe.. I love igbo people as most of my friends r igbo by tribe..some ukwuanis even learn to speak igbo language and vice versa.but both cultures and associations hav their limits. Ukwuani language is somtimes called an igbo dialect by some ignorant igbo people because of d language similarity but it is recognised as a distinct ethnic nation by d federal govt of Nigeria because both cultures r totally different. I laugh @ some igbos who still consider ukwuani/ndokwa and IKa nation in anioma as a subgroub of igbo...Ndokwa and IKa nation are too empowered to be a subgroup of any clan or tribe because we hav got all it takes and d resources to be independent..ukwuani and ika nations both agreed to join d anioma CONFAB because we wanted to render some political assistance to d igbos base on our good relationships wit u but u guys should know ur limits by not blackmailn our people because of ur selfish interests. Igbos should learn to unite their 5major states b4 talking about anioma,ikwerre,ekpeye etc but NOTE dat*** its not all anioma dat r igbos, Ndokwa/ukwuani and IKa nations still remain distinct ethnic nations from igbo despite our relationships..its is only aniocha/ENUani people dat r proud igbos in dis great DElta state. Im still trying to learn igbo language,can som1 teach me ![]() |

u guys should stop all d arguments because u cannot change our identity which has bin already recognised."UNA GO GROW WHITE HAIR 4 OUR MATA OOOO".. Its ur free will to choose;but we know who is igbo,ikwere,ekpeye,ika, or ukwuani by wat he/she chooses to identify with. U cannot just begin to force all tribes into igboland because it(igbo) is majority whiles others are called minority.after all there ar no benefits. Im am ukwuani by tribe and i love igbo people as my ethnic cousins.period... I still retain my ethnic identity as ukwuani/ndokwa wen i travel anywhere even to igbo land. Back in ur school days b4 u got married I know u hav met some delta/rivers students who came to study in d east and retain their ethnic identity as *ukwuani/ndokwa. Thats d way it is. God has made it so...i m hapi to be an ukwuani/ndokwa boy.... No arguments... I suggest 'EHTNOLOGUE' as d best place for u to make ur claims,or better still use GOOGLE by entering d the word "NIGERIAN LANGUAGES" |

bigfrancis21: My brother, I keep saying it, it is only the im,pure blood from ukwuani and ika will disclain igbo not pure blood, the name UTI NWACHUKWU Is pure igbo its like saying IBRAHIM MUHAMMED is not a muslim name, I have stopped arguing with them, it is only failures that couldnt compete with IGBOS will dwell in isolationism of I AM NOT IGBO.DON JAZZY is from Ukwuani and mum from UMUAHIA nnd he has said it over and over again that he is just too igbotic just like me, I AM PROUD IGBO, WE HAVE SEEN IT ALL, but those impure benin migrants in ukwuani that said they are not igbo, i respect them but they should not use the term WE UKWUANI ARE NOT IGBO...it shows stupidity. th name UKWUANI is purest igbo word So just like saying LIVERPOOL, WOOLWORTH aint English word# # Nollywood stars including Genevieve Nnaji, Pete Edochie, Eucharia Anunobi, Patience Ozokwor, Oge Okoye, John Okafor, Onyeka Onwenu, Kenneth Okonkwo, Uti Nwachukwu, O.C Ukeje and many others came out in their Igbo attires for the Launch of Africa Magic Igbo Launch happening in Enugu this evening.

D ukwuani man/igbo man has never agreed just lika dat of d igbo man and ikwere man.period... Igbos must learn to organize their 5states B4 talkin about claimin niger delta people. Igbo r just too rude and lacks respect for other tribes dat is y its difficult for an igbo to rule Nigeria . Igbos r now claimin lagos state. I fear una.. Everytin is not money and selfishness. No wonder ikwere,epkeye,ukwuani,ika dont like to support d igbo man when he speaks despite his popularity... Ur people must learn to repect people or else they will soon be Forced out of lagos,portharcourt etc |

victor1464: why have you assumed the position of spokesman of ukwuani and ikwerre. It is pathetic how you think I must be honest, You might talk of yourself. An igbo adage gores like this. A monkey can vouch for the child in the stomach not the one she is carrying behind..... IGBOS ARE NOT CLAIMING LAGOS STATE that is what you should understand, what igboa are doing is lagos ids right to live, it is this your clanish mentality made not even one person in ukwuani to have an oil production/marketing firm am not talking of drilling or oil well. its this clanish mentality puts ukwuani at the low level of developement in all the Delta North, dude igbo man no send you, I know you see igbo in awe and you feel odd and cant compete so you take consolation in isolationism that i agree but dont rope other proud igbos in ukwuani that has made it in life into this. YOUR A SON OF BENIN MIGRANT THAT SOUGHT REFUGE IN UKWUANI and that is well understood so have you forgotten that we have ukwuani bifra soilders in civil war NEXT TIME make an intelligent submission, beside that what is ukwuani comming to the table with, lets assume that we are having igbo conference, in terms of capacity, finance and population what are you coming to the table with apart from weed planting Guy rest this your identity complex issue, your type is what we call fake igbo 3 Likes 1 Share |

tonychristopher: Tony, ignore the chap, he is seeking for cheap attention. Look to the who is who in ukwuani who realize the identity folly and know they are Igbo. It is the irrelevant cheap rats that seek to make the most noise about their identity. Their noise hardly goes beyond their circle and deep down many of them know they are Igbo. They derive immense joy in denying being Igbo, and to gather cheap attention. What matters is what academic sources say and that they are an Igbo group. 4 Likes |
