Armaggedon:
its either you are being plain silly or you are trying to curry some favour from some Igbophobic elements. Every sane mind who followed the thread from the beginning will not have the course to arrive at your terribly insane judgement.

Op made a very wrong statement by saying that most Niger delta groups have nothing to do with Igbo. Igboid corrected him with a fact-laden lecture, and instead of noting the correction, he replied with an insult and went ahead to exchange Igbophobic banters and you want to absorb him of blame. Does his claim that Igbos want to 'annex' them not prove that he is a lowlife bigot?

To think of the fact that you claim to know him as a neutral person annoys me. The frathermathy handle is same one as Jacysandra imposting as Asaba girl and another third Handle claiming kwale and he use all of them to bash Igbos. In most of his threads he always finds a way to rope Igbos into it in order to attract tribal banters and i will share some of them. Pls never compromise your love for Igbo just to be seen by others as reponsible 'cos they actually portray you as irresponsible.

Bigfrancis21 please do what you do. This is also form of derailment.

Armaggedon:
you dont want to be exposed right?
But be sure to deactivate your account if i see any unwarranted insult on the great Igbo race from you again or your other Igbo bashing monikers

bigfrancis21:

Cool. What tribe are you married into?

Many of the Okpe and Uvwie people speak Urhobo as first language. Others speak Pidgin and English. Most are bilinguals. The few who speak Okpe and Uvwie represent the older generation of people and trust me when I say my statement is not far from the truth.

Pidggin:
..

My brother, I understand but that one no concern me. For my state e bi like say tower of babel fall for there so Pidgin dey help inter and intra, enjoy your own language as for me nothing do Pidgin for my area, take care

The irony of this is that we would rather be slaves to Yorubas than be freemen to Igbos. Sink that into your skull.

As Yoruba slaves, we would be treated far better than you Igbos treat yourselves.

AjaanaOka:
Why did you write "and worse, Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa"? Because learning other Nigerian languages is so much more terrible than mastering Spanish and German?

a lot of urhobo parents are guilty of these ,which is surprising when both couple are Urhobo. ....... Only my mum spoke Urhobo and somehow she made sure all her kids fluent speakers despite the fact that my dad doesnt speak
However my husband both parents are urhobo, who speak it well but the kids dont hear a single word in urhobo

I've noticed the tendency for other tribes to project their influence on Igbos but are quick to reject any Igbo influence on their tribal affiliation. Nigeria now knows of the Bini influence on Igboland but did you know that many are not aware of the Igbo influence of the 4 market days of Eke, Oye, Afor and Nkwo on Igala, Idoma and Bini lands which the Igalas, Idomas and Binis use till today?? Many also do not know that Igbo and Bini share many words in similar. The title of the Oba of Bini goes by Omo n'oba Akpolokpolo uku, the 'uku' in the title is the same as 'ukwu' in igbo which stands for great. Igbos say 'nkita' for dog and the Binis say 'ekita'. Osakwe and Osakhue both mean the same thing in Igbo and Bini. These and many more similarities.

where Do you reside in Delta ?.. I might recommend some books for you .. What school re your ward attending ?.. Most schools in warri teach Urhobo as one of there subject.. The earlier the better..

Igboid:
I often encounter individuals of the two Nigerian largest tribes who believe all Niger Deltans are Igbos. They don't even recognise that most of these tribes have NOTHING to do with Igbo!

The only Niger Delta group that has nothing to do with Ndiigbo is Itsekiri.

It's okay to say that all Niger Deltans are not Igbos, that I agree 100% with. But you start stretching it when you say that MOST of Niger Delta tribes has nothing to do with Ndiigbo.

Infact, the only thing that Unites all Niger Delta tribes culturally, excluding Itsekiri is Shared history with Igbo speaking neighbors.

Urhobo/ Isoko has some towns with Igbo ancestry and still share boundary and cultures with the Igbo speaking Ukwuani even unto today.

Some Esan towns were founded by Igbo speaking people, like wise some Esan people who were absorbed into Igbo speaking Anioma today. As we speak, Ekpon, an Esan town in Edo is losing her Edoid language in favour of an Igboid( Ika) one. And we all know of the Existence of Igbo( Ika) speaking Igbanke people right in Edo state, and the Edo origin stories of many Igbo towns today in Anioma, Anambra, Rivers, and even some Enugu towns.

Ogoni people share a long history with Ndoki Igbo, just as a significant section of Okrika people are said to have originated in Ndoki. Ndoki also has ancestral connection with the Ibani people in Bonny and Opobo as well as with Ibibios.

Ngwa Igbo and Ikwuano Igbos share alot with the Annang people, their interactions was pre colonial as neighbors with Inter marriage and trading as well as diffusion of cultures both ways, like the Ekpo society.

The Aro Igbo people were traversing the entire Ibibio- Efik-Ekoi area,breaking cultural barriers by development of unified cultural ideologies like the Ekpe cult system and the Nsibidi writing system, centuries before the white man created Nigeria and the Urhobo man became aware that there was ever a people called Ibibio- Efik-Ekoi people.
And these people remain neighbors to Aros and to Ehugbo Igbos and Ikwo Igbos even till today.

I can go on and on.

But I'm sure you already get the point.

Like I care. Lol.

Come and go and kill yourself away for Igbo matter na.
