Ikwerre is a dialect of Igbo language. We the Ikwerre people knows that we are Igbos but oil politics made them cut states apart and set brothers against brothers. But we are hopeful of Biafra, when we will unite with our brothers in one united country. 43 Likes 3 Shares |

Ikwerre is not Igbo. It's a completely different language with roots from Benin. Ask any Ikwerre man you see and he will tell you. 18 Likes 3 Shares |

SLAP44: Impostor! Who told you you're from Ikwerre and related to Uche Okwukwu. My friend you're not from Elele not to talk of Ikwerre. A true Ikwerre man Iwhuruoha in that matter will not say Ikwerre is Igbo. Ikwerre, Emohua, Port Harcourt and Obio Akpor ancestral home is Benin, and since i was born my grand father, grand mother to my father and mother never told me that our Ikwerre has a link to Igbo. Ogbakor Ikwerre has repeatedly rebuke those that says Ikwerre is Igbo, remember last year when Ohanaeze Ndi Igbo wanted to hold a world conference in Port Harcourt UST campus to be precise, Prof. Simeon Achinewhu then Ogbakor Ikwerre president general stopped them from holding that world conference that Ikwerre land Port Harcourt is not Igbo land. The Berom and Langtan people of Platuea, the Ebira people Kogi and Kwara people speaks Hausa, bears Hausas names does that make them Hausa people. This force attach must stop. 16 Likes 4 Shares |

KenOne: Lets just assume you are right. Lets assume that the Ikwerre people are Bini migrants who settled in present day Rivers many years ago. I have two questions. 1) why did the Ikwerre people drop their bini names and language and adopt Igbo language and name? Why would they do this? Its not like Bini is very very far away from Ikwerre land. 2)If Ikwerres are really Bini people, why do some of them claim to be a 'distinct ethnic group'? Why are Ikwerre people not Bini people? Or maybe Ikwere/Bini people? Why havent we seen one single Ikwerre person ever come out to say he is a proud Bini man? 29 Likes 4 Shares |

sultanodudua: Ikwerre shouldn't be discussed. Among all igbo clans, Ikwerre remains the poorest, and least educated. If they choose to belong to Benin, that's good for them. Nigeria won't last more 50 years because the reason for our unity (oil) is gone for good and I wonder where they will belong. When the time comes for the dissolution of this country, we will have minimum of eight nations namely ibibio/anang/efik, igbo, yoruba, Ijaw, hausa fulani, middle belt(Christians) , ,igala/tiv/idoma, and Kanuri. Let's stop discussing about Ikwerre. Igbo nation is great with or without them 22 Likes 1 Share |
