What did the Igbo nation do to honour or immortalize late Margaret Ekpo of blessed memories? u ppl should not just stop at asserting her igboness because of her paternity. The airport in Calabar is named after Margaret Ekpo, there are roadways and halls named after Margaret Ekpo in Calabar to show how the Efik people cherish her What did Igbo people do to remember her? i am asking all the igbos in the house....mtcheww All u people do is claim! What the OP has said remains the fact. Ibibio/Efik influence made Margaret Ekpo who she was. The only part of her that is Igbo is her father's sperm as IanSweet puts it.....LoL (No offence to my igbo peeps pls), i am also of mixed igbo origin, infact just like Margaret, my own father was a product of his Igbo mother because his own Benue father died early too. 3 Likes |

Nowenuse:So don't you know that the blood of her father,surpasses the afformentioned(Blood is thicker than water).The igbo blood in her paved way to her success.My dad is an igbo and my mom from calabar,but i believes that im fully IGBO young lad,though living in calaber since stone age. 1 Like 1 Share |

nosike3: My bro, u must not insult to make a point. As u can see, the OP acknowledged Akunyili's influence but the point he made is very valid. Margaret Ekpo and Funmilayo Kuti started fighting for the rights of women even before Akunyili was born, both women fought for the relevenace of women in the independent Nigeria while Ladi Kwali's works were presented as Objects of National pride at the internationa centre on Independence day to the extent that she graced our naira note. Haba my Brother let's be fair to ourselves here. Dora is great, i love her and her legacy, but truly she cannot be in same league with these listed women. 1 Like |

Nowenuse:Are you sure you are not the one being stupid. If Magret Ekpo was a prostitute would you want to claim she was Ibibio because she was married to an Ibibio man. The truth is that she was Igbo married to an Ibibio man and that was why she may have represented Ibibio. Atiku Abubakar's wife is Yoruba. Has marriage changed that? Josephine Anenih is from Anambra and is married to an Edo man. Does that remove her being Igbo? 8 Likes |

ianSweet:What about those who their parents have integrity but chose to go astray? How do you tell where they come from? Do you have any prove to back up your claims of her mentality and personality been Efik alone? Furthermore, do you care to show me where her success was attributed to the Igbo ethnic group? Let me ask you, do you think she would've been as successful if her dad wasn't an Igbo? If her dad didn't provide the sperm that fertilised her mother's ova, would she have existed? Why are you so keen on discrediting the Igbos? Can you say all these in her paternal home? If her dad should resurrect now, can you say all these to his face? You cannot be logical! 5 Likes |

genieluv:I choose to disagree!!! The crisis of their time( i.e ransome Kuti et al) is nothing compared to what we face at present!!! I lost an uncle to fake diuretic drugs, I grew up in a society where chalk was served as antibiotics!! You might not appreciate what she did because you're not in the line of business that I belong to but Akunyili brought sanity,dignity and ethics to a dead and decaying pharmaceutical and health sector! 4 Likes |

Why are some uneducated kids in the house talking so recklessly and vehemently trying to remove Margaret Ekpo's paternity influence(which is naturally her identity) ? I'm really tired of you bigoted un enlightened fools always harsh towards the igbos. What is it? Fear? Envy? In the bid to discredit and sideline the influence of her igbo- genes you all failed at biology. Stupid lots. 2 Likes |

PreciousBro: Hey, take it easy. U are the one over reacting here. Nobody is trying to take away Margaret Ekpo's paternity away from her, all they are stating is the obvious. Your paternity is not what determines who u are in life. Your upbringing, your maternity and your spouse (marriage) affects u just as your paternity affects u. So it's 3 odds against one Margaret Ekpo's upbringing - Efik-Ibibio Her Maternity - Efik-Ibibio Her marriage. - Efik-Ibibio Her native language/mother's tongue. - Efik Her Paternity. - Igbo 4 against 1, so Ibibio-Efik wins.
