Nnaa nnoo. But you must know that alot of our people from Ndokwa had disgraced and humiliated Ndiigbo from the past, both online and offline. You can imagine a situation where an Igbo from South East sees a Chukwuemeke from Ndokwa and try to call him a fellow Igbo, only for Chukwuemeke to start insulting the Igbo man for calling him Igbo, accusing him of trying to steal ndokwa land, tell him that Igbos are thieves and greedy people, and therefore, Ndokwa a holy people cannot be Igbo.
I belong to Ndokwa facebook page, and I know the type of unprovoked Igbo bashing posts some Ndokwa people make there, they insult and denigrate Ndiigbo everyday. See a thread an Ndokwa son opened on Nairaland sometime ago, he is still active in NL today https://www.nairaland.com/1362294/abohs-delta-state-not-igbos
A former Super mod in NL here, Ishilove or so they called her, an Ndokwa daughter, was also violently Igbophobic and never missed any opportunity to denigrate Ndiigbo here, any time we tried to count Ndokwa/Ukwuani as Igbo.
After 50years (1970-2019) of this gross abuse, many Igbos have grown detached from your Ndokwa people, some like me are even growing a big resentment and hate for your people as well, because let's face it, we are not Jesus and can't continue to show love to a group of people who show only strong hate towards us for 50yrs counting now, just because we tried to extend hand of kinship to them.
Of course, I am well aware of the fact that we have Igbophillic Ndokwa people, even here on Nairaland we use to have an Igbo veteran here those days called "CHYZ", (not to be mistaken for the current impostor going by a similar name). One of the admins of Proudly Anioma , Proudly Igbo group , a man I respect alot is also an Ndokwa man, Ali Chukwuma, remains my most favorite Igbo musician, he lived and died an Igbo man, yet he was from Ndokwa, Aboh to be precise . Problem is that those of you on the Igbophobic side greatly outnumber those on the Igbophillic side. It's a bit disheartening. While you are right to be angry with lukewarm and even standoffish Igbo attitude towards Ndokwa/Ukwuani today, you must also recognize the fact that it's only but a reaction to the barrages of non stop abuse many of your brothers have subjected us under for 50yrs now.
So to stop the reaction, you will first have to stop the action, and this will take a very long time to achieve.

Anioma (the beautiful land) is igbo and will remain so till eternity. I will not let those suffering from identity crisis change how I see my Anioma brethren. BUT For people like you that are confident and proud of your origins, you and other reasonable folks from Anioma areas need to challenge those pushing anti-igbo sentiments and suffering from igbo denialism and severe identity crisis.
The man who carried out the coup that led to the suffering of igbos today in Nigeria is an Anioma son and most importantly he is Igbo and we fully embraced him and shed our blood for our brother.
To later find out that some people from the same village that he is from among other clans in Anioma denies anything to do with the rest of Ndigbo, feels like a big betrayal to other igbos especially those from the south east. Thanks for your comments at least its still show that people from east still see us as one in respective of anything but some of those denies has something to do with nature of Delta politics which people from east don't understand.sometimes you don't have to blame some people that denies Igbo,if all of us accept Igbo's do you think development will reach some area with the nature of Delta politics? even within anioma we see ourselves separately if not their won't be federal college of education in agbor,state polytechnic in ogwashi uku,state technical college in asaba and other separate developments we have gain separately.

You all should just God that you are not from anioma in Delta but from Igbo States in east. Nwanne, there is no reason whatsoever to justify the blatant denial of Igbo identity going on in Ndokwa and Ika. Ijaws share states with Yorubas in Ondo state and still retain their Ijaw identity. The Ijaws in Delta still retain Ijaw identity. The Oshimilis and Aniocha have an overwhelming number of them Igbophillic. Nearly all Proud Igbos from Delta I have ever met were either from Oshimili or Aniocha, it's almost impossible to meet a proudly Igbo man from Ika or Ndokwa offline. Denying your Igbo identity have not brought the development you thought it would attract to you, or exemption from the post civil war victimization of the Igbo by the Nigerian state, you guys tried to avoid by denying Igbo. Why not come back to the fold in sincerity, let's all join hands together to rebuild our unity. Imagine if Omo agege had to deal with 15 south East Senators plus 2senators from Ikwerre in Rivers and one from from Anioma, making it 18 vs 1, would he have been able to hijack the proposed Kwale polytechnic from Ndokwa and claim it for his Urhobo people? When we speak of Igbo Unity, many of you are too ignorant to recognize what our uneducated ancestors always knew, hence the saying :IGWEBUIKE. You think only SE stands to benefit from Igbo Unity, you want to play minority politics with experienced minorities like Urhobos who saw through your folly and aided your Igbo denial, so that they could isolate you from your Igbo brothers and always get one over you like they just did. You are angry that Igbos didn't help you to win the polytechnic from Urhobos and that we don't even care. But you forgot that if all of us started playing the minority politics you went to play. If we all abandoned the Igbo tag and all decended into the chaos of minority ethnicity as Ngwa, Nsukka, Omambala , Ezza, Izzi, Asa, Ndoki, etc ethnic groups like you lots did, then there would be no Igbo for you to be angry with for not helping you today.

Some igbos have experienced this in their lives and it’s hard memory to forget.

The only reason why comments from igbophobic Anioma people annoys me is because I'm from Anioma. If I were to be from any state in the SE, even God knows that I will never bother myself on anything that has to do with Anioma or the SS in general. When I see guys doing research and trying everything to relate Anioma to the easterners, I just laugh because as for me, I gat no time for that nonsense. Anybody that doesn't want to be Igbo is free to claim any ethnic group he or she wants because I don't see myself begging any lost soul to be Igbo or trying to explain history to anybody to know that he/she is Igbo, Ndigbo are better and bigger than that. 11 Likes 1 Share |

But last election showed otherwise that anioma at least has voting strength...and enough one ooo Though if it comes to urhobo, Ijaw, and Isoko teaming up. What you guys failed to understand is that it will be quite hard. Urhobo and Itsekiri teaming up is possible because of how they believe Delta belongs to them but with Ijaws is will be quite hard and hard. After how many years, it was last year that anioma produced vice chancellor in Delsu. Okowa should subtly fix and ground anioma in delta politics before leaving office. He can do that. 1 Like |

I still believe that it should be the next state to join the south east but some people think it’s a bad idea because of the on going identity crisis. I personally believe that if Aniomas get their own state, then they can have a safe space that will enable them progress Faster and a conducive environment to solve the identity issues. |
