The Governor was asked by Dele MOMODU if he is igbo and he gave a blunt reply. "I am not" . He later went on to clarify the misunderstanding about his name and also the ikwere people link to igbo. Watch video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3ANmx2mhOU 64 Likes 15 Shares |

Who cares . Congratulations to Onyesom Ezebunwo Wike son of Nlemanya Wike and his own group among the Ikweres. They're the first group on earth to derive their ethnicity from state creation cos b4 1976 state creation, there was no tribe known as Ikwere. Ikweres were just a subgroup of the Igbos just like Nsukka or Abakaliki ppl. Modified. It is heartwarming to see Wike is suddenly the darling of yerobber Muslims.

Governor Wike have the right to his ethnic identity but must never forget that hating on the Igbo tribe does not in any way make us less Igbos.Ken Saro-Wiwa & the Ogonis made the same mistake but till today they are regretting it. We must not agree in all things but there are some things that intersect all of us-oppression & marginalization by a common enemy 117 Likes 11 Shares |

For the fact that my language sounds like Igbo language doesn't mean I'm Igbo. People should understand this. You no go call sprite water simply because water dey sprite. Ikwerres are not Igbo. FULL STOP. 248 Likes 27 Shares |

Igbo people should stop stressing Wike and Ikwerres over this 'igbo or not-igbo' issue. You can't force a person to be who and what he refuses to identify with. Make una rest. 301 Likes 21 Shares |

Ikwerre not being Igbo all depends on the Ikwerre you meet. An Ikwerre man and former Governor, Chibuike Amaechi, will tell the whole world that he is an Igbo man. Another Ikwerre Governor like Wike will say he is not Igbo Meanwhile, an Ikwerre man called Uche Okwukwu is Ohanaeze Secretary general while another Ikwerre man called Elechi Amadi wrote a book to say Ikwerres are not Igbos You meet an Ikwerre man, he says he is Igbo. You meet another Ikwerre man, he says he is Bini. You meet the third Ikwerre man, he says he is neither Igbo or Bini, he is just Ikwerre. Confusion everywhere! Its for Ikwerres to go and sort out whatever identity crisis that has engulfed them 540 Likes 53 Shares |

Any Igbo man that call Wike or Ikwerre people is either a brainwashed IPOB member incapable of rational independent thinking or an ignorant one with no sense of group dignity. Ikwerre is not Igbo 108 Likes 11 Shares |

gidgiddy: Don't get it confused Uche Okwukwu and other opportunistic Ikwerres are all part of Ohanaeze Ndiigbo because Ohanaeze is a useless organization that is obsolete and not in sync with modernity which exactly why the organization has no grassroot support in Igbo land. Even as UK pulled out of EU, if the EU leaders are stupid enough to make an opportunistic English man claiming to be anti Brexit the Secretary general of EU with the pay package and power that comes with it,do you think such British will decline? The answer is No. But does EU making an English man the Secretary general of EU change the fact that the British back home have no interest in being part of EU. That Uche Okwukwu an Ikwerre man is even allowed to be part of Ohanaeze let alone rise to post of Secretary general is a testament to how useless Ohanaeze Ndiigbo is as an organization. No Ikwerre or any one whose majority of his people are Igbophobic should be part of Ohanaeze Ndiigbo if the organization is a serious one. So you IPOB should stop quoting this Uche Okwukwu,because you are only underlying the failure of Igbo leadership as epitomized by Ohanaeze when you use Uche Okwukwu as example of Ikwerre being Igbo. 125 Likes 13 Shares |

Very interesting interview. Apart from emphatically declaring that he’s not Igbo, I like the part where he claimed that the head of ipob is one small boy whose name he can’t remember ![]() ![]() ![]() At least, those always doing attache by force can now give it a rest. Ikwerres are not Igbos and so be it. They are a distinct ethnic group in Nigeria. We should all respect who they are instead of forcing another identity on them. 148 Likes 20 Shares |

It is now left with people Obio\Akpor LGA to dispute if they are not Igbo as Wike had publicly said. Rebisi people have already indicated they not Ikwerre and not part of the shenanigans some Ikwerre peeps tend to chase. 39 Likes 7 Shares |

Davash222: ikwere language? what's the meaning of that name in igbo language and what is the meaning of ikwere in ikwere language and in igbo language? people will not seize to amaze, anyways I don't see what is important in wike being igbo or not, people like JONATHAN who is more important and more intelligent and more matured and more recognized all over the world and more valuable is not igbo but identified with the igbo to the extent of adopting an an igbo name for himself, compare him to some igbos that are denying their identity for pots of porridge like one thing in abuja and another thing in lagos and the difference is very clear. you won't see people like okonja iweala do that. that wike is being applauded by a particular set of people who are insulting him a few weeks ago but see him as their hero today, because he is killing igbos will tell any sane person why IPOB seen to be the best option now 66 Likes 7 Shares |
