True, but to an average yoruba man in Ibadan, all these names belong to omo ibo. They want to rule nigeria, but they have ZERO knowledge about the country they want to rule. Make dem come carry am na. ![]() 1 Like |

Not all. you missed some names I guess. Ada is a very common name between Igbo's and idoma. |
Re: Common Surnames Among Igbos And Their Northern Neigbours by Biafrannuke: 1:50pm On May 17, 2020 |
Armaggedon:Yes. But I'm focusing on surnames as it is a stronger evidence of a shared history. |

Elechi Enenche Amadi Eze Obi |
Re: Common Surnames Among Igbos And Their Northern Neigbours by Biafrannuke: 2:10pm On May 17, 2020 |
Nigeriabiafra80:Elechi and Amadi if Idoma at all bear them should be found around Oju and Obi LGA. Do Igbos bear Enenche? I don't think. Just like I doubt if idoma bear Eze and Obi |

WeneWali:Why are you always after Yorubas? Why? Have you forgotten during biafra war, Igbos raped and maim your people for refusal to be part of Biafra Republic (a.s.s licking) Which you're doing NOW |
Re: Common Surnames Among Igbos And Their Northern Neigbours by Nigeriabiafra80: 2:24pm On May 17, 2020 |

Re: Common Surnames Among Igbos And Their Northern Neigbours by Okpotokpo: 3:49pm On May 17, 2020 |
Biafrannuke:I equally don't know the meaning of those names, but it's very common in northern igbo communities i.e Nnsuka, Enugu ezike etc. |

WeneWali: The most useless entity on Earth are Igbos. Tomorrow you create another Moniker, claiming kwale in Delta. This is your moniker for claiming Ikwerre. What happened to your father's compound. |
