LegendHero: Pleade tell them to come forth, lets talk it out... There is no single indeginous tribe in Ibibio dat speaks Igbo as their language and there is no indigenous igbo tribe that speaks ibibio as indevenous... We have very different cultures, though some might mingle, but we have different cultures and beliefs |

Why are people not happy igala is part of anambra state? I knew igala is part of anambra since secondary school in igbo class. Write only igbo as our language and u will get half mark. Wicked mazi igbo 3 Likes |

murphyibiam15: The word dispersed used there is quite tricky. It might mean that those people migrated from Ebonyi into that area of Benue and settled over time. Whether that makes them indigenous to the area is now another debate. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Afam4eva: If the OP had listed the Igbo language and omitted Ikwerre then it makes sense but listing Igbo and Ikwerre as major languages spoken in Rivers isn't a true reflection of fact. The Igbo language on its own isn't a major language without say Ikwerre beside it. |

umuna: Ikwerre is just one group in Rivers State, Ikwere is the single Biggest off all groups The other Igbo/Igboid groups in Rivers Sate combined are bigger than the Ikwerre, so Igbos in Rivers is not all about Ikwerre. 1 Like

umuna: I understand Ikwerre dialect more than afikpo. I once asked if ahòada, òmòkù, mgbede all speak igbo. I have been in there Was confused at all the chukwuemeka, nonso etc. Politics divide brothers. Politics that favours the north only while dividing the south. Now we are dragging who should be among my tribe or not. Tribe will continue while u and I will die. Stop hating and dividing. It doesn't favour us but the north alone. I hardly comment on this rivers state igbo brouhaha cos it's very childish. 8 Likes 1 Share |

It's really funny that most of the arguments from Igbo extractions support the presence of igbo in virtually all the southern states of Nigeria (maybe aside yoruba of South west) but no igbo wants to believe there are other tribes indigenous to the Igbo states. Isn't it funny? 8 Likes |

How can Edo state be about 8m and Rivers about 5m in population? Where did u get your statistics ? Rivers has the largest population in the south south not Edo with about 4m in population. Edo is a complete version of Nigeria where we have the Hausa , Yoruba, Igbos cultural representations in the state |
