ezenwajosh: you know little about Niger Deltans. In delta we have the edoid language, yoruboid language and the igboid language. Delta state is an extension of Edo culturally, meaning all ethnic groups were being influenced by Edo. linguistically some groups were influenced by Yoruba, and some by Igbo and some by Edo. Delta north speaks the igboid language Delta central speaks the Edoid language Then some part of Delta state which is occupied by itsekiri speaks the yoruboid language. The itsekiri language is very much related to ilaje and other eastern Yoruba dialects with about 80% similarities. apart from Delta north The rest ethnic groups share nothing with igbos, I mean absolutely nothing, they are all related to Edo, so next time don't act like all groups are igbos because someone answers emeka. 5 Likes 1 Share |

ezenwajosh:There is nothing like South South and Niger delta as a separate name, the are the same. Niger delta is just the area that river Niger tributaries covers just like bird leg, it include Imo, Abia, Delta, Bayelsa, Akwa Ibom, Cross River, Edo, Ondo, and Rivers state. On the other hand South South is a recent political creation by Obasanjo in year 2001 and it is not in Nigeria constitution. Nigeria is have 4 regions North East West Mid West ( It include the present day Edo and parts of Delta state). The Eastern region have 4 market days as result of assimilation of Igbo culture, that does not mean that they are of the same origin. Hausa language dominated the north while yoruba dominated the west, in the west they have Iladje, Awori, Egun etc that have their own languages. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

ezenwajosh:Anioma and Ika in Delta, Igbanke in Edo, Ikwerre in Rivers are Igbos. Igala answer Igbo names as result of language assimilation, Niger Delta is not exclusive of Igbos, there are Igbos in Niger Delta. Onicha Ugbo people and Ebonyi people are all Igbos, they can bear similar names. Why is Yoruba call rock Okuta and Igbo call it Okwute also yoruba call goat Ewure and Igbo call it Ewu and so many other words, does that mean that they are the same people with common origin. 1 Like |

Odingo1: And their native names happen because of language assimilation, traditional title happen because of language assimilation Language assimilation doesn't affect something indigenous... Like igbos call pap akamu and akamu is not an Igbo language it's Yoruba or so but when it comes to indigenous terms, traditions and surnames its not language assimilation |

ezenwajosh:Igala have a distinct language but some speak Igbo, it is only Igalas that is living near the Igbos territories that is bearing Igbo names and other cultures. Eastern Nigeria have many diverse languages, you cant say Isoko, Itkekiri, Urobo,Ibibio,Efik,Ijaw, Okirika are all offshoot of Igbos. No, they are languages on their own. The north also have the highest number of diverse languages distinct on their own. 3 Likes 1 Share |

myboy2111: We are not talking about REGION here. We are talking about HISTORY. Maybe the whites grouped you in Western Region doesn't mean you are from Yoruba. Am not forcing you to accept That you are Igbo but trust me, Ibo was a very mighty united kingdom with more than one kingdom in it. Many were not even speaking Plain Igbo (Ebonyi). Read about Ancient wars like Anglo-aro, Ekumeku,e.t.c. Seeing how organised they were will prove to you that their was government before the whites came.Ask yourself, Before Amalgamation,is there anywhere written that Igbo fought war against Urhobo or Ikwere, The answer is NO because we were running confederation where each people govern themselves under one umbrella and elders gather around to make peace through voting when problem arises between two kingdoms 1 Like |

Truthful and wonderful write up I have noticed a lot of people on nairaland don't even know where their fathers houses are talk more knowing their nation of origin. History is very important for progress because he who fails to acknowledge the past is doomed to repeat it. Every Deltan needs to go back and study the truth about the asaba massacres because if u fail to acknowledge ur identity ur enemies won't make such a mistake. I am happy someone is trying to educate people. It is left for them to learn. 1 Like 1 Share |

ezenwajosh: Bros don't worry yourself about the south south Igbo speaking who deny being Igbo because- 1. They need us more than we need them. 2. Our population is far much higher than them. 3. We have 5 states which totally belong to us while they dont have total ownership of their states 4. We produce 15 senators and over 50 house of reps members while they barely produce 1 senator and below ten members of the house of reps in their various states. 5. We are a hard working people who don't depend on politicians to dash us money like their youths. 6. We are far more than them in business, in education, politics etc. For the Asaba man who is proud to be an igbo, we accept them as our brothers. Including the Ikwerre people of Elele side. As for the other Ikwerre side, pls count them out of Igbos. When you live in ph here with them you will be ashamed to call them our brothers. They are more of a disgrace. 2 Likes |
