Yes, Anambra dialect is sweet and very light, Ndiigbo love it.

Owerre dialect also sounds smooth in music, listen to Oriental brothers.

Enu-ani is melodic too, listen to to the "anu nwobi na egbu azu" song .

Can you send me the links to owerre songs biko

I have Owerri and Enugu Ogene and Edegede musics very well in my memory card but the problem now is how to send them to you.
You can download Igbo songs from rtomp3.com
From sunny bobo, to Eze foreigner, Ogechi Ka mma, Ogene Awka, Ogene Nti Ike etc. The website also has Igbo Catholic hymns, Nkwa group of Aba, Fr. Mbaka's songs and lots more. The website is not really popular but, I was lucky to see it on Google.

Always very melodious. When I was younger, they use to move me to tears, I don't know why, Owerre language has that effect on me, when used to sing.

Ali chukwuma teamed up with osadebe in the past

I super love Owerri songs. Bongo music has the best melody in Igbo land while Ogene music of NdiEnugu showcases Igbo musical instruments are their best. Have you also noticed that Ogene music does not need the input of foreign musical instruments to produce a perfect beat?

Yes I do. Though I was told that Ali Chukwuma watered down the dialect to enable other Igbos understand him better and increase the marketability of his songs all over Igboland.
And it worked. He was the best selling Ukwuani highlife musician and most popular outside Anioma so far.

Funny how Ndiigbo seem to have gone in full circle since Zik 1948 lecture in Aba, and had Now returned back to exactly where we were in 1948, in 2018.
Let me break down Zik speech, and compare it with our current conundrum in Nigeria.

In the following address given eleven years before Nigerian independence, Nnamdi Azikiwe calls for self-determination for the Ibo as they along with other ethnic groups march toward an inevitably free Nigeria. This address was delivered at the Ibo State Assembly held at Aba, Nigeria, on Saturday, June 25, 1949.
Harbingers of a new day for the Ibo nation, having selected me to preside over the deliberations of this assembly of the Ibo nation, I am conscious of the fact that you have not done so because of any extraordinary attributes in me. I realize that I am not the oldest among you, nor the wisest, nor the wealthiest, nor the most experienced, nor the most learned. I am therefore grateful to you for elevating me to this high pedestal.
The Ibo people have reached a cross-road and it is for us to decide which is the right course to follow. We are confronted with routes leading to diverse goals, but as I see it, there is only one road that I can safely recommend for us to tread, and it is the road to self-determination for the Ibo within the framework of a federated commonwealth of Nigeria and the Cameroons, leading to a United States of Africa. Other roads, in my opinion, are calculated to lead us astray from the path of national self-realization.


1. Zik recognized that he wasn't the richest, wisest of wealthiest Igbo then, when the mantle of Igbo leadership fell on him. The same is applicable today. The one who would reunite Ndiigbo, and re kick start our renaissance would likely not be the wealthiest, the wisest, learned, or experienced amongst us.

2. Just like 70yrs ago in 1948,Ndiigbo are at cross roads again in 2018. The road to self determination or integration into Nigeria.
Zik chose the later in the end and it led us back to where we started. A lesson for those who still profer that same solution in 2018. We must learn from the past mistakes and not repeat them.

It would appear that God has specially created the Ibo people to suffer persecution and be victimized because of their resolute will to live.

Since suffering is the label of our tribe, we can afford to be sacrificed for the ultimate redemption of the children of Africa. Is it not fortunate that the Ibo are among the few remnants of indigenous African nations who are still not spoliated by the artificial niceties of Western materialism? Is it not historically significant that throughout the glorious history of Africa, the Ibo is one of the select few to have escaped the humiliation of a conqueror’s sword or to be a victim of a Carthaginian treaty? Search through the records of African history and you will fail to find an occasion when, in any pitched battle, any African nation has either marched across Ibo territory or subjected the Ibo nation to a humiliating conquest. Instead, there is record to show that the martial prowess of the Ibo, at all stages of human history, has rivaled them not only to survive persecution, but also to adapt themselves to the role thus thrust upon them by history, of preserving all that is best and most noble in African culture and tradition.

Placed in this high estate, the Ibo cannot shirk the responsibility conferred on it by its manifest destiny. Having undergone a course of suffering the Ibo must therefore enter into its heritage by asserting its birthright, without apologies.

The Igbo had really suffered great victimization. It would appear that 70yrs later, we still suffer victimization. And to make it worst, we had Now for the first time lost a war, a humiliating One, in which we gave our best, which turned out not being good enough.

The Igbo spirit has been broken by the events of 1967-70, the fall out of this is the self denial and identity crisis we see in Igbo boundary areas and the the decay of the Igbo high moral codes, now replaced by alien materialism.

It would appear whoever is to replace Zik in this herculean task of Igbo reunity and renaissance, has more difficult job on their hands than Zik did.

But the good thing is that unlike Zik, this leader would have the benefit of hindsight and history to direct his actions. Zik had no such, and made many fatal mistakes, consequently.
And yes, we must not shirk away from this great responsibility of igniting African renaissance that Nature had bestowed upon us, by defying all forms of subjugation and suppression placed on our path.
