Afam4eva: "Ji eye no wehu" Lol! "Anamta ebushire bushiru ghu". "Ihuo! iyewa ashawakanu"! " Onye izhi ghu, no mbomu". "Mbawa ine eme adikaghu kwa" "Ohu nta ghu na anya" "Ezhi ghu ekerughue" I don't know how many Igbos that can interpret those sentences. I love my Nkanu dialect! I rep Enugu South to the core. Speak and understand Nkanu dialects fluently. I'd like to see non Nkanu Igbo people on this board try and interprete those Nkanu sentences I wrote. Hehe! 1 Like |

pazienza:What does the term NKANU mean? Is it the same as Akanu? |
Re: Delta (and Rivers) Igbos by pazienza(m): 10:34pm On Mar 03, 2017 |
cheruv: No. It's not the same as Akanu. They are not pronounced alike too. Anu in Nkanu sounds like "anu" in meat Whereas the "anu" in Akanu sounds like "anu" as in difficulty in hearing. As for what it means, I don't know. But it's the name of the Igbo clan found in Enugu South, North and parts of Enugu East LGA, as well as in Nkanu West and Nkanu East LGA , all in Enugu state. Nike is believed to be the oldest amongst Nkanu people and are often the first to take kolanut during traditional/ social gathering in Nkanuland.

Sorry, cire80 that you have to put up with all of this. Panziena is in denial. He believes or wants to believe that Ikas and ukwuani ndokwa are Igbo.

Anioma is Igbo, ie Goodland, and Igbo is indeed a good land. https://www.nairaland.com/3656185/why-visited-nnamdi-kanu-soludo Above is Pat Utomi leading the way. I know you love Anioma people, you sure had a special way of showing it, when you went about pointing out Anioma people to Nigerian army to kill in Edo during the war. Lol!

pazienza: The Ika and Ukwauni are constantly telling you you guys that there not Igbo. But you guys won't listen, you keep forcing yourselves on them even though they are telling you they're not. Just leave them be! During the Midwest invasion of the Biafra war Igbo soldiers were killing and raping hundreds and hundreds maybe in the thousands of Edo people. The Igbo soldiers indiscriminately shot and killed and abused innocent thousands of Edo civilians. |

"It was this battle that gave birth to Murtala, a “Local champion” called Ibrahim Haruna and Ibrahim Taiwo of the Nigerian Army. Africans first had the practical experience of the word “genocide” in Igbodo where hundreds of lives were lost in the Nigerian civil war. In Isheagu, the case was not different. It was here that the ulterior motive of the Nigerian troop clearly unfolded. The people were now scampering for the safety of their lives having experienced what happened in Igbodo and some other places. In the Midwestern region, able bodied men went into hiding leaving women and children at the mercy of advancing soldiers. The people of Benin went identifying their Ibo-speaking neighbours from house to house for executions."

Favor99: So Igbo soldiers shot at phantom Edo people, that's the justification of your atrocities against Ndiigbo in Anioma? Was that why you connived with the Federal troops to massacre them in mass in Bini? Because you saw them as Igbos? Hahaha! Jokers! 2 Likes |

pazienza:Ika people were not killed during the war. Genocide was carried out in few Aniocha Oshimili area but it's because some people there were apologetic to the Biafran soldiers. And Biafran soldiers also killed people in Ika as well. But this doesn't justify the actions of the Nigerian troops. Ika language saved many people from my place. Murtala was so in love with Ika. This tales of how Oba told the Soldiers this and that are all fabrications. Oba never did that. But if |

cheruv: Remember that I had wondered about what happened to Edo people that besieged Anioma threads on NL here. linking their conspicuous absence with the Emergence of Cire80, a supposedly Anioma person who is more pro Edo than the Oba of Bini? There are many pro Edo Ika people, Agbontae and their likes, but when you argue will them, you get the feeling that they are only bringing up Bini connection to stay free of Igbo tag. With Cire80, it's different. Turns out that Ugomba was right all these while. Cire80 is an Edo impostor that had been masquerading as Ika man. 1 Like |

Cire80: You are an Edo impostor. Ika towns like Igbodo, Ekwuoma and their likes were greatly affected by Edo monitored FG massacre of Western Igbos in Bini. Biafrans can't kill Western Igbos when Achuzia and other Western Igbo soldiers were commanding Biafran troops. Edo man, you need brain surgery. 4 Likes |
Re: Delta (and Rivers) Igbos by cheruv: 12:00am On Mar 04, 2017 |
Cire80 has shown the world he's Bini... Pazienza if you remember that mgbejume guy was rejoicing that the Federal forces slaughtered Anioma in mass,same as this cire80 guy here. Anyway, when the time comes we'd force all Bini descendants off Anioma territories back to Bini, even if your fathers came from ishan or sobo,you all are going back to Bini. And if Bini itself doesn't take time, we'd send in Igbo colonists into Benin city itself and change its demographics over time. Am a bit harsh...but attimes we need to be 1 Like |

pazienza:Ekwuoma and Igbodo and which other? FYI, Ekwuoma and Igbodo are part Aniocha part Ika. There was no genocide in any part of Ika. Even if people were killed in those places you mentioned, only a few people were pinpointed and murdered. |

Colonel achuzie and Nzeogwu are all igbo-Anioma... So aso wea abt 7 other high ranking Biafran officers during the war... Infact late Colonel Nwawo is an igbanke or Igbo akiri man and considered himself Igbo, he fought on the side of Biafrans...he was in Britain undergoing military training when the war broke out, he returned to Nigeria only to be asked to fight against Biafrans, in his own words in a television documentary after the war, he asked them " how can I fight against my people" he was imprisoned but later released wen Biafran troops entered Benin... Even after the war in that documentary he maintained his igboness... He is not even from Anioma or ika in delta but his village and hometown is in present day Edo state. .... 1 Like |

"Benin was the capital of the mid-western states
with a high concentration of Asaba-born
technocrats, bureaucrats, and professionals who
met their untimely end at the hands of federal
troops and other accomplices…… there appeared a
fleeting period of lunacy in which mid-westerners
gladly identified Ahaba people to be shot down by
federal troops on the so called liberation day in
Benin…. It was the first Black On Black genocide
in post independence Africa." Midwest Solicitor

Anioma are Edo brothers. Hehe! They migrated from Edo, even though they speak Igbo. We remind them of how Edo people massacred Enu-ani people in Edo with help from the FG. Hehe! They shift the goal post immediately, removing Enu-ani and hence Anioma from their lies. "Ika and Ukwuani are Edo brothers they scream"! We remind them that Ika people in Isheagu, Igbodo and Ekwuoma were also killed by FG with Edo help. They shift the goal post again! "Igbodo and Ekwuoma are not Ika enough"! Hehe. pathetic bunch. 1 Like |
