Revolva:Apart from the Ibaji who speak Igbo and some with Igbo heritage, we have indigenous Igbos along the borders with Kogi. The population of Igbos in Kogi state dwarfs the acclaimed Igalas in Anambra or even Enugu. If you cannot accept that they exist indigenous Igbos in kogi, then we'll tell you that they are no Igalas in Anambra. I'm beginning to see you as mischievous with your back and front arguments. And if you want it this way, then this is your answer. 'There are no Igalas in Anambra'. Igala ends in Kogi. 3 Likes |

Chiwude: I hold your submission 1000 percent. Revolva please there are no single Igala in anambra state as of today. Take your campaign to yahya bello or any other SW governors not here. Igbos and Igalas have nothing in common. Ekwensuu na mmadu ana eriko nri. |

MelesZenawi:I don't like mischievous people. It's a known fact that Igbos and Igala share a lot in common. Most Igala community share Igbo origin and most Igbo community share Igala origin. It's a fact that Odolu, Akpanya and Ibaji are bilingual and speak both Igbo and Igala side by side. I'm not even talking about core Igbo villages in Kogi state but Igala known communities. These people (the Igala and Igbo in the border communities) similar physic, similar cuisine, similar clothing, similar burial, similar marriage rite, similar market, similar church procession, similar dances and intermarriages existing since centuries. The Igala kingdom in the past once conquered Igboland as far as even Nsukka before it was liberated. Had the British not removed Igala from the southern region and add it to the northern region in 1922 constitution, the Igala province would have either by now become a part of the SW, SE or SS. So there is no way you can detach Igala from their Igbo neighbors. It even foolhardy for one mischievous person to start asking political question such as there are no Igbos in Kogi state. If there are no Igbos in Kogi, then there are no Igalas in Anambra state. Simple! 3 Likes |

Chiwude: Bros what are you even saying I mean that the igbos in kogi are not indegienes oo they are there for business sake I know them look you are telling me my own community am from ibaji and I will. Tell you my people the igbos in ibaji are business men and traders who came to trade but never will they claim kogi for one day if they like let them speak igala But it's quite true that at a certain time igalas from.idah migrated to ette in enugu and nzam in anambra to integrate with igbos and that is hundred of years back even more hundred if I can count and they know their origin from.idah even we ibajis are from.idah by origin See stop making this look like a fight there are no igbo indigineous to any part of kogi even in ibaji Ave told you why some ibaji people.bear Igbo name and n my last post The only place u can find a little Igbo is in benue the part that border ebonyi state Google it and see but you saying igbos are in kogi (there fore that person you are taking as Igbo is not originally Igbo he is an Ibaji man bearing Igbo name ) |

Deadlytruth:. Shut the Bleep up and get off my mention with your propaganda story telling bullshit to Explain of your Tribalist trait. I've been a member of this forum for awhile and NONE of your attempt to excuse your behavior is True. In fact it was an Edo person who called himself mulattoclara who attacked, belittled and even wishing death on Igbos for not supporting your shithole APC. I was a member of this forum when the idiot non-stop opening threads on this forum attaching Igbo without any Edo opposing him. I'll be more than happy to back up my statement with links if needed. No body gives a flying Bleep about your Igbophobia. If you like bash your worthless head with hating Igbos, still wouldn't give a Bleep. I despise Edo, especially binis, as much as you despise Igbo but unlike you, I don't go making a damn fool of myself screaming Edo like a crazed hyena. All I know and we all can see is, as usual, you made a complete utter fool of yourself. Not like anybody is shocked. It's a common trait with you. 1 Like |

Deadlytruth: Many Edos are actually of Nupe origin, especially from the Afemai axis. Nupes were the ones who brought islam to Edo state by conquering the Etsakos. They were defeated by Bini/Esan combination, hence the spread of islam ended at Agbede. Many were captured as slaves. This was the way nupe names came to Edo. 1 Like |

IGBOSON1: Hahaha, don't blame blacks too much. Same things is happening in Europe. Catalonians and to an extent Galicians and Andalusians reject Spanish identity, cause they feel it belongs to Castillians who dominate everything and not them. Portuguese pulled out long ago. What abt the Basque seperatists of France? Yugoslavians are actually one people who speak the same language. But they fought a bloody war and divided. Their divisions were always based on religion. Serbs were orthodox christian, Croatians were catholics while Bosnians were muslims. Today they are different countries. How about Czech & Slovakia? How about Germany, Switzerland & Austria? How about Denmark, Sweden & Norway? There are more! Europeans fought many wars centuries ago to actually unite their tribes under one countries/empires, otherwise, they are also just like us. 1 Like |

IGBOSON1: You are blaming the Niger deltans? Abeg, them dey try. Their tribes are even big enough. Come to the middlebelt/ North-east and see diversity. In my LGA in Plateau state, there are 5 distinct ethic groups. There are LGAs in Southern Kaduna, Plateau, Taraba, Southern Borno e.t.c where you find 10 different tribes in one single LGA. The only thing is that everyone speaks Hausa as a lingua franca (2nd language), that is why our differences look obscured to you southernerns. Cc ednut1 1 Like |

[quote author=pureheaven post=81304945][/quote] You Eggons were formerly part of Plateau state and this list was created before 1996. Besides I don't see why Eggons are so proud of this their Nasarawa. A state where they can never be governors even as the majority tribe and are treated as trash. Eggons made their biggest mistake agitating to leave Plateau state. An eggon man had a better chance of being a governor in Plateau than Nasarawa where Hausa fulanis are taking over. 1 Like |
