pazienza: This is Just a reference to show that you people were slave to other tribes before the colonial system. Because ipod are always quick to call others tribes (especially we northern minorities/middle belt ) as slaves of Hausa/Fulani whenever we disagree. So how about this well documented story with traces till today. 4 Likes 1 Share |

ankpaa: By the way, the above is a work of fiction. Not to be taken serious. But it's still funny how these minorities wish they could be imperial forces rubbing it on Igbos, and then turn around the next minute screaming Igbo domination / land grabbing. It would appear the easiest way for minorities to gain one minute fame is to start talking about Ndiigbo. 10 Likes 1 Share |

pazienza:igala does not need Ibo for anything. The highest thing igala do in Ibo land , is going to orba to trade. It's mostly ankpa people that have connections with Ibo. Ibagwa, akpanya, ete , etc, all have very close link with igala. I don cover that area , so I know . 2 Likes |

Igala didn't colonize Igbo but we should rather say some Igbos share blood relationship with Igala. The Nri Igbos originate from Igala and occupy Northern part of Igboland in a mix with aborigines from Awka and Orlu. It is same as all Igbos outside the core Awka-Orlu area. Oguta people and most Western Igbos equally share blood relationship with Edo/Bini in a mix with the Awka-Orlu Igbos and some Igala-Igbos too. I believe it is same with most ethnic groups as nobody can claim to be pure except you lived in total isolation. 3 Likes 1 Share |

pazienza: Igbo are quick to call minorities slaves of hausa/fulani at the slightest chance, so this serves as a reminder of where you people are coming from. You were once under direct control of one of the minorities.If you dont like this reminder then stop calling others slaves ,focus on your Biafra project. 5 Likes |

BALLOSKI: And Ndiigbo needs Igala for something? You well so? Was it not your Igala brother that opened this thread to chest beat based on fictions written by an Igala man and posted on Wikipedia? Yes! There is big relationship between Northern Enugu/Anambra and their Igala neighbors. The influence isn't one way traffic thing. It was both ways. Igbos influenced Igalas, look at Ibaji and places like Akpanya, and Igalas influenced Igbos. But like I had learnt, it's always acceptable as sign of strength for non Igbo groups to point out their influences on Igboland, while Igbo attempt to point out Igbo influence in non Igbo lands is frowned upon by all and looked at with deep hate and suspicion. But we are expected to accept non Igbo influences in Igboland without complaining, even when these groups try to distort such influences to portray a form of inferiority complex masked as superiority complex, okwa ya? 7 Likes |

ankpaa: We were never under the control of anyone. Your Igala invaders were dealt with and sent packing by gallant Northern Igbo people. You were subdued by the caliphate who forced Islam down your throats, and those of you that flew southwards having failed in their resistance struggle were welcomed by their Northern Igbo neighbors and acculturated. The ones that came with invasion plans were halted and sent packing. It's as simple as that. 3 Likes |

pazienza: I didn't say I'm igala. I went there, I heard market days like eke, afor , ukwo, ede, etc, something I heard in Ibo land. This goes to show the cultural linkage. The igala land I traversed last time is big enough for them not to landgrab not to even talk of someone trying to twist history just to appear to be trying to increase their sphere of influence. 3 Likes |

Abagworo: You are naive if you think bitter Igbophobic beings care about IPOB or Ndiigbo. They hate IPOB only because it's Igbo aligned , IPOB are victims of their Igbophobia. The earlier you understand that, the better for you. They don't like Ojukwu, hundreds of Ojukwu bashing threads exist in Nairaland as a testament to that, yet Ojukwu never abused these people, they never loved MASSOB even when Uwazuruike methods were tepid and docile, devoid of reply of their hate speeches with his own hate speeches like NK perfected, Billie group was cajoled and laughed at by them here, even Ohanaeze Ndiigbo has not been spared of their Igbo hate bigotry. Ask yourself what all those groups have in common, if not that they are all affiliated to Ndiigbo. Igbo People like you who should know better, but decide to willfully swallow ignorance pill to feather the nest of your political orientations , disgusts me. 9 Likes |

BALLOSKI: Don't mind that clown. Many people do not realise that Kogi State alone is the 12th largest state in terms of landmass, and that Igala land occupies more than half of the place? Igala land is even bigger in size than some entire Southeastern states. When their own IPOB people lift articles from Wikipedia, they consider it to be true, but when people from other ethnic groups make reference to the same Wikipedia, they say it is fiction. We are all watching them in 3D. 3 Likes |

BALLOSKI: Nobody ever denied the cultural linkage between Igala and Ndiigbo. But tell yourself the truth, is that what this thread is all about? Isn't it obvious that this thread is all about denigrating Ndiigbo by concocting fictitious stories where Igalas are cast as all conquering force that conquered and brought civilization to Ndiigbo? When in truth, none of that happened. You can imagine the magnitude of such grandiose delusion. They are not tinkering with history to exaggerate their influence you say? So what's the meaning of this thread ? 2 Likes |

The Igala speaking people of Nzam were the descendants of General Ajida, a notable warrior of Idah origin who invaded the town. Ajida is the father of field marshal Ogbe who was married to Iyida. History also has it that the land in which the town was located was initially occupied by other aboriginal Igbos, whom they defeated and sent away in fear of possible attack in future. Some later re-emerged to join other native Igbos to repossess the town. The town's new monarch is HRH Igwe John Nwachukwu Ogugua (IDE Nzam)following the death of Igwe Paul Okolo in 2012. HRH Igwe John Nwachukwu Ogugua was elected as the Igwe on 10 May 2016 after a 3-year period as the customs and tradition demands. He was officially presented with a certificate of recognition by the governor of Anambra State Chief Willie Obiano on 16 September 2016 at the State capital Awka. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nzam Above is the exact illustration of the relationship between Northern Igbos and Igalas. It's a history of Igalas invasion, and Northern Igbos fight back and repossession of their lands, and subsequent assimilation and acculturation of remnant Igala people that stayed. 7 Likes 1 Share |
