slowice: bros, next time you may want to read before you reply, your comment shows that you did not read what I wrote or maybe you didn't understand it, you can go back and read it and then tell me what I said there that is an embarrassment to igbos, we have time and space, that is if you are igbo at all, did you you see anywhere I said JONATHAN is igbo? and I am interested in wherever wike claims to come from, and it's not for you to decide whether ikwere is igbo or not, oh I forgot you didn't read it, but you should stop thinking with your fingers, use your brain sometimes instead, |

[quote author=Ogbuu101 post=95955854]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. Is awa God not a wonderful God? ![]() ![]() ![]() ] People like you is the reason we Rivers State of Igbo origin always say we are not Igbo because you think the few states in geopolitical expression called south east is original Igbo. Ikwerre is not the original name of that tribe european Igbo interpreter created that name. Ahoada, Ogba and Alaka are three sons of one man. Alaka is the group you call ikwerre. Igbo is a big tribe not just in NIGERIA but across West African region. People from the eastern NIGERIA should stop ownership of Igbo are claiming every Igbo tribe came from them while in the real season people in eastern NIGERIA came from where every Igbo tribe came from. So wike simply don't want to be identified with south east. |

aribisala0:So according to you Ikwerre is part of the igboid family but only Ikwerre is not igbo among all the other igboid family. Funny you I wonder why you wrote the truth up there and still try to twist it just to feel happy So I can start introducing myself now as chinedu Okafor from Benin.

aribisala0: You seem to embrace fallacy more than factual facts. I guess Yoruba people are colorful story tellers. They simply can turn a mere wrestling match into a momentous war. By the way, how many people were the so-called Abiriba to hunt the mass people of Igbo? There is no cowardice in Igbo man. Abiriba is a tiny part of Igbo people. 3 Likes |

Igboid: There's the Eze family in Benin with various branches. They goes by the morning greetings Lavi-Eze. All established Benin families have morning greetings that identify them and also have chiefs that represents them in the Palace. Why single out two names from the list I gave you. The people that left Benin took with them names and cultures you guys are now claiming, including the names of your market days and titles of some of Obi of Onitsha chiefs, including the Obi's title himself, Agboghidi, his sceptre are all Benin in origin. Some have argued that Chime was actually Ikhimwin which the Igbos they met in their new land pronounced Chime. The Igbonization of Benin names and words are not peculiar to the eastern expansion of the old Benin empire, most Benin original names and settlements in Lagos were also Yorubanized. 1 Like |

Organs: There must be more criminal elements like you from the tribe you come from than among the Igbos. Why do you stake everything to make Igbo remain in one Nigeria with you against their interest? Why do you put everything to have oil producing rivers and others distanced from the Igbo if not your criminal ploys to have the oil producing areas become tiny for your easier exploitation? All the Igbo ask is a plebiscite for what they ask for. Why are you afraid of plebiscite, the best instrument of democracy? After the plebiscite, you can have Wike and his Ikwerre if they refuse Igbo. But be rest assured that the oil producing areas in the SS can not remain with rest of Nigeria for one month without the Igbo. 2 Likes |

aribisala0: So what?, Slavs, Greeks, Hausa etc. Fought each other and sold each other into slavery even while they had unified cultural identities, so Aro slaving isn't evidence of anything. But you are kind of right, but only kind of. Igbo speaking peoples have for a very long time been identified as one group, even though the individual clans would identify more with their clans, the same dynamic happened historically with the Romans and Germanic tribes. As such many people local and foreign identified the Igbo speaking people as a group even though the won't all have necessarily have done so themselves. But the manifestation of the Igbo ethnicity as a coherent tribe is also an Igbo decision not an imposition, few decades before independent, Igbo scholars educated in the western model went around telling their won people how the outside world saw them Igbo speaking peoples as one ethnicity and the rest is history. Also the Hegemonies of Nri and later of Aro would influnece primarily and almost all of the peoples today considered Igbo. So Igbo identity didn't come out of no where even if it wasn't as coherent before. |

Being Igbo is actually not by force. Governor Wike is old enough to identify his tribe, but that does not mean that, other Ikwerres can not identify with Igbo. 3 Likes |
