Igboid: So a couple of misled sons of Anioma makes all of us complicit? Is that right? Igboid: I'm not claiming to know more than him, after all he is my elder and a traditional ruler. However, I have also been educated by his peers, other rulers and accomplished men who disagree with his point of view. Who is to say he is more right that the others? The advantage of an open mind is one seeks the opinions of those who know better (even if they differ and compete), digests their teachings, and comes up with his own interpretation. Most of our leaders are seeing, with the benefit of hindsight, the errors of their assumptions and hopes as younger men. They are now realizing and acknowledging that there is a distinct Anioma identity, which must be nourished and cherished. Igboid: So somebody says "you are so and so", does that mean you cannot reply "no, actually, this is what I am"? Igboid: These are the two I could easily find... there are publications in print that I can dig up too... https://www.nairaland.com/2507315/anioma-asaba-people-not-igbo (which references "The ANIOMA, Vol. 10, No 1, May, 1999, p. 11" ![]() https://books.google.com/books?id=jOS4CwAAQBAJ&lpg=PT17&ots=Z1I2z6e8cR&dq=anioma%20%20ebonyi%20state%20creation&pg=PT17#v=onepage&q=anioma%20%20ebonyi%20state%20creation&f=false 2 Likes 1 Share |

Udmaster: Shut ya gob and pay attention to the knowledge I'm kicking lol. All I'm doing is to civilise ya primitive mindset lol. Igbos outside Onitsha to the West and anywhere South of Igboland got their through slavery. They were slaves in the two axis pre-Nigeria and it is well documented. Yes, they did outnumber the indigenous people in those places. However, that doesn't negate the fact that they went to those places as slaves. So, why would people who settled in places outside their ancestral lands as slaves want to dictate an identity to the indigenous people they met there? A lot of folks from Delta in the so called Aniona for example can trace their ancestry to Bini and they were the ones who owned these Igbo slaves. Slaves can't dictate to the owners of land - learn to pick ya battles wisely. Oyo owned slaves but they were mostly Bariba, Fulani, Hausa, and Nupe. And apart from Ilorin, most of these slaves were assimilated into the Yoruba identity and they are Yoruba today. That's what Igbos in Delta need to do - assimilate into the Bini culture they met there. And if they can't do that, the ones who are Igbo should claim Igbo and let the Bini ones claim Bini. 9 Likes 1 Share |

Sultanchidi: You are not serious. When Ibe Kachiukwu was appointed, it was Yorubas and their Northern brothers that went around saying that they know that Igbos will reject him, saying that he is not from SE. Never for once did we malign Ibe's appointment, we welcomed it, and simply said that it's not enough, that we wanted more. Stop this your sob and victim story already. It exists not. Okonjo Iweala biggest supporters remain SEners even though she is an Anioma daughter. If anything, it was Ika people that started warning us here to stay away from celebrating Emefiele when GEJ appointed him the CBN governor, by reminding us that he is an Agbor man from Ika and not an Igbo man. By the way, Ibe Kachiukwu is not an Ika man, he is an Enu-ani man, and you hardly encounter Igbo denials amongst Enu-ani people. Igbo denial is mainly an Ukwuani and Ika problem. 9 Likes |

Igboid:Asagba of Asaba is not a recognized king in Delta. A monarch from a tiny Anioma village commands more respect than the Asagba. Please stop saying what you don't know. If you're from the east, you can never understand Deltans. We might have issues with the Urhobos because of politics, but we understand each other more than Anioma and East. They can call us Igbos for political reasons. It's a form of derogatory word for them and they enjoy doing it. It's all because of politics but deep down their hearts, they know the difference between Anioma and igbos. 4 Likes 1 Share |

chukzyblingz: You are lost. They call you Igbos because they know you are Igbos. They have been there with you all through. They knew when your sons were basking in the glory of the Igbo Union, when the Igbo ethnic group was at the peak of her prowess, they knew you took delight in being Igbo then, and they know why some of you are running away from your shadows. Perhaps you need Prof Ita Sagay to reset you malfunctioning brain again, nkwa I present Mr Sagay therapy to you: https://www.nairaland.com/2858845/prof-sagay-many-igbos-didnt Btw, Asaba is the biggest and most important Anioma town today. I know this fact is very hard for Agbor and Owa people to bear, seeing as they held sway over Anioma in the past. But such is life, things change. Asagba of Asaba by the virtue of Asaba status today as the most important Anioma town, remains the most important traditional ruler in Anioma today. 10 Likes |

Udmaster: Lol. You sound like an illiterate lol. Were those Yorubas in those places there before there was anything called Yoruba and have always been there before Togo and Benin were created during the scramble for Africa? Those Yoruba settlements in those places are even older than most Yoruba towns in Nigeria, save for Ife. And they're all older than Oyo and even Dahomey. So, how the hell did slavery get them there? Lool. No. Slave trade didn't get them there - those are their ancestral lands. But colonisation separated them from the other Yorubas. The same can't be said about Igbos outside Igboland cos they ventured outside the forest as slaves. It is well documented. 7 Likes 1 Share |

But that isn't enough reason to deny one's identity. Anioma and Ikwerre dialects are even more understandable to other Igbos compare to Abakaliki dialect 1 Like |
