Ikwere are Igbos, they are denying their being Igbo because of Nigeria politics. If they are not Igbos why are they speaking Igbos and answer Igbos names ![]() How is it possible for them to forget all the traces of their old language to Igbo.No single Bini language in their name and language ![]() 6 Likes |

ebenezer202l:I met an Etche man sometime ago in Yenagoa. He needed a favor from me and he identified himself as Igbo from Etche. Somehow I could tell from his countenance that he didn't really believe I would accept him as an Igbo man... Probably because of the continuous denial they're known for. Truth is most times when they're in foreign territory, they choose to identify as Igbos because it serves their interest and gives them a sense of belonging. The Ijaw people in Bayelsa do not know what is Ikwerre or what is Etche. ALL OF THEM ARE IGBOS... Kapish! 10 Likes 3 Shares |

First class Mumu, Will you now say that the people of kogi west are not yorubas simply because they are part of kogi state? Your hatred doesn't take anything away from us, Igbo Amaka 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and other opportunistic Ikwerres are all part of Ohanaeze Ndiigbo because Ohanaeze is a useless organization that is obsolete and not in sync with modernity which exactly why the organization has no grassroot support in Igbo land.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.[/quote] 2 Likes 1 Share |

aribisala0: Anthropologists and Archeologists have unearthed Igbo ukwu cultural art works and carbon-dated them to back to 5,000 B.C, Igbo language is that old. Now when did the fleeing Ikwerre slave escapees land in their present region from Bini? They have told you they are from Bini which means they are indirectly confirming to your empty yoruba skull that they lost their original language and borrowed from the Igbo ethnolinguistic system from their hosts. What other confirm do you need, this dubious yorubaman? ![]() You know this fact, but being true to dubious self-deceitful yoruba jibiti nature, you just want to argue for arguement sake because you feel 'you must deal with Ibos/Igbos today'.

I don't quite get Dele Momodu's line of questioning. Who are the "they" he's referring to that are angry Wike is denying his Igboness? Random social media accounts? Should that be a basis for substantive discourse? It seems many outsiders like Momodu and all those mastuurbating on this thread love to fan this conflict between Igbos and Igboid groups in the SS. And our SS Igboid brethren never fail to disappoint in taking the bait to express their well-cultivated Igbophobia - making themselves useful idiots to the agenda of those who would seek to divide us from pursuing common interests. Many Igbos also act like idiots and take the bait everytime these topics come on. Why do you care whether Ikwerres or Ukwuanis or Ikas or whoever assert their independence? Why choose to attract their resentment and Igbophobic insults by engaging in the pettiness? 6 Likes |

AchalugoNwa: The only Igbos outside Southeast are Egbema and Obigbo(Asa and Ndoki) in Rivers State and Aniocha, Oshimili in Delta State. The other groups that are of Igbo origin and speak Igbo but are not Igbos are Ikwerre, Ogba, Ndoni, Etche, Omuma, Ndokwa Aboh, Ukwuani and Ika. Ahoada, Bonny and Okrika in Rivers State also speak Igbo but are not of Igbo origin and have their own languages. Opobo has mixed Igbo and Ijaw origin but speaks Igbo. 1 Like |

obiekunie2:Ikwerres are the one begging to be Igbos when it favours them. Did you see Igbos claiming that Obaseki is Igbo? If the idiotic Wike was caught as a drug dealer somewhere in Indonesia, you will be the first person to link him to Igbos/South east. Duncan Mighty in his song called him "Ezeyesom wike" and today the idiot is struggling to mumble some strange words as the correct pronunciation of his name. Wike is nowhere near to well accomplished Igbos and nobody in the entire Rivers state has achieved anything close to worthy Igbo sons and daughters. Let us see what becomes of Wike after governorship. 2 Likes |
