Before the Nigerian civil war, there was a celebration in Nigeria called "Igbo Day", it was a day all the Igbos in Nigeria celebrated with a display of their cultural dances and songs. We need to bring it back. Your guest is very knowledgeable and noble.
@@morganleonard5280 Morgan, 👍 good point. But how come "Igbo Day" is being celebrated by Ohanaeze? Your post got my attention because Stephen Ogbuabia suggested that Igbo day be resuscitated in order to help unite Igbo people. I don't really understand how Ohanaeze celebrating Igbo day help us as a people. Please expound on your point.
The Ahiajioku Lecture Festival was also a huge event that brought Igbo together from all over Igbo land. It was always an opportunity for the celebration of the arts and culture of the Igbo, and highlighted by a lecture series that allowed the brightest Igbo minds to offer an intellectual analysis of the affairs of the Igbo. The festival was founded in 1979 by the late great governor of Imo state Dee Sam Mbakwe.
I am so impressed and speechless from our great and highly enlightened brother, Kanyi-na-ebi. Much love and respect for regurgitating out a whole lot of truths there.💕💕💕
Let them introduce central igbos to all Bia/ Igbo speaking town in South south my opinion o cos I am from Agbor more people are beginning to understand this reality my bro is a chief in Agbor, and I also know the King of Agbor very well.
Our problem are not the original indegenous Igbo of Ika land but those ones of urohbos heritage married to Ika. These are the ones saying they are not Igbo due to dia dual citizenship of urohbos and Ika heritage. They even bear both names. But am happy my original land owners of Ika are wise now started refusing changing thier names back to full igbos.🤔🤔💕
The enlightenment of this my brother is in another levels, this is how someone reason, but you see so many whom are from Rivers state but still remains ignorant,
Wisdom is not all about age, I have been watching this program for awhile now, and I have seen many old people been interviewed without any knowledge of this history that this young man has. Nigerian government is discouraging her youths about with their ill system and made them to think wrong about Education. But Education is never a scam but always a key and a very big achievement to any individual . Our people need to be educated about their history and who they are. Kudos to this intelligent, wise, educated and proud Igbo man and Nnaa mehn TV more grace to you.
He just said it. All started after the CIVIL WAR.I was born in Bori Ogoni and I've been saying it all along. It's all about OIL 🪔 and keeping the Igbo race 👎🏾 down. He's just saying it the way l always say it in the social media. Look at the Jews what self denial cost them until they were massacred in Europe. People that have Anya,Imi,Önu,Afö,Aka,Ükwu,Eze,Obi, saying they are not Igbos,but cannot say any one word from another race in their language.
" if you say you are not Igbo as Ika then you are a child without identity" 🤔 it's means you are lost and can never be found. Seek the truth and it's shall set you free. 👏🎊💕
my town is the town before akumazi we both are of Ika north east LGA just like governor okowa we are Igbos to Amin our ways are Igbo , our life is Igbo culture food etc we are igbos
The whole of Anioma was called Ikaigbo. Ika LGAs are two. All the people there are not exactly the same lineages and even the dialect vary within these LGAs. Over 90% or 9 out of 10 are Igbos. The area of Ika LGAs that has issues is the Agbor and Owa area: 1. Agbor and Owa have a few Bini ozara villages. These are like Igbo igbanke carved into Edo state, but these bini ozara speakers were put into Ika north east LGA. So these few ozara villages are the one who claim not to be Igbo and also push the majority Owa and Agbor to not claim Igbo. The 5% ozara Bini speakers are not Igbo, so always find out if any person rejecting Igbo with pure hate is from Ozara bini village Around Agbor. Agbor and Owa kingdom are structures and these Ozara bini people are included in Agbor Kingdom and Owa kingdom too I think. I think it's in only Agbor and Owa kingdoms you have got these ozara Bini speakers. These Ozara people hide under Ika for their Bini expansion project. At most Agbor Igbo majority if they keep quiet for peace sake the bini Ozara people will dominate them and make them slaves in Agbor and Owa kingdom. Akumazi, umunede, abavo, etc dialect is not even like Agbor?
AM FROM OWA IKA NORTH .. YOU ARE 100% RIGHT EVEN THE OBI OF OWA KINGDOM ALWAYS PAY I VISIT TO OBI OF NRI OF ANABARA STATE.. SAME WITH THE OBI OF NRI....
@@user-ye7bv6yt4n Oba of bini is not the chairman of the Nigeria traditional rulers council. The chairman is the sultan of sokoto - but who made it so. So the oba of bini by going to their meetings is paying homage to the sultan. At a point in bendal state and now in edo the oba of bini had the same role in bendel /edo state as the sultan has in Nigeria. Oba of bini kingdom has more resources than owa kingdom and the sultan more resource than bini kingdom. Yes, the sultan has an oil well or part of given to him and with that he gets homage visits from those without an oil well.😅Lol.
Spiritual Connection with igbos ie IKENGA our market days our names etc all is one and same! omg 😳💯🙏 our an forefathers will be in jubilation now. Baba you to much 😊" your school fee no be waste oo abeg". Wow where logic meet reasoning.💣
There was this guy from umunede who I brought to where I live here in Europe he’s my housemate why fought with me is because I told him that the IKa people are Igbo he that I should stop saying that the IKa people are Igbo he said that IKa people are from Benin this someone who speaks Igbo language very well all the things we are talking with him here in the house are in Igbo language even the argument I had with him was in Igbo language but yet he said that he is from Benin
@@youngman6981 Lol 😆 Who told u he accomodates him 4 free ? Igbo person go gv u house 4free in Europe ? Definitely d guy must b paying rent, bills too . Housemate no mean say na 4 free
We are one my brother, i always say this, for me delter igbo is buushit. IGBO IS IGBO ANYWHERE IGBO IS SPEAKING INCLUDING AKUMAZIUMUOCHA and IKA in general PERIOD.
Please do visit the Igbos in Kogi, Benue and other Middle Belt states. It would be great to bring them into the fold. I love your efforts and watch your videos regularly. Keep up the good work! 👏👏👍👍
I have been longing for you to meet this brother. He has the knowledge, wisdom and sagacity. I have been commenting on your videos asking for ur contact, I even dropped my number.
Orunmila, Esu(satan) these are Yoruba words, the Edos are related to Yoruba heritage, if an ika man claims to be related to Edo people, then they should be answering yoruba name. Thanks to this Bro for his intelligence
R names important in identifying someone? So d names ppl bear has a relationship with their identity? It's interesting 2hear dis frm an Igbo person bcos on several occasions I've heard Igbos argue dat names don't mean anything. Dat d names of individuals or towns/communities hv no bearing wotsoeva with their origin. Dat anybody can bear any name.
@@ayebatarijuliapaxagiri2767 names is important if the name have meaning in your indigenous language..example Chibuike rotimi Amaechi..rotimi is a yoruba name given to him by his mother who is yoruba..it means nothing in ikwerre language but chibuike and Amaechi are ikwerre names but the meaning in ikwerre is the meaning in every igbo speaking tribe be it ika,owerre,ukwuani e.t.c..Chibuike means God is strength in ikwerre and that's the same meaning in ndoki and etche including ika
@@martinpower4911 But wen it has 2do with som ethnic groups, names suddenly bcom irrelevant ? Igbos overlook & throw away d ppl's individual names plus d names of towns & villages, hamlets. Names will hv no role 2play once it's Ibani matter. Lol 😆..... Double standards. If it's Ikwerre, Etche, Ika etc names r important, Ikwerre ppl bear Igbo names hence they r Igbos. But Ibani ppl who bear Ijaw names r not Ijaw, they r Igbos. Hehehe😄
@@ayebatarijuliapaxagiri2767 I’ve told you many time that there are also ndoki people in Bonny.. even tho the majority is ijaw.. but there are still ndoki there.. my maternal grandmother is an ndoki woman from Bonny and she identifies as an igbo woman her name was nnezi,, ibani people have there own language different from Igbo.. but that doesn’t mean there are no ndokis in Bonny.. read about Adaka Boro and his assault on Bonny during the civil war, where he made a lot of the ndokis in Bonny to flee from Bonny to inner lands or change your name,,most ndokis in oyigbo today were originally from Bonny and the reason you even find them there is because oyigbo was formerly in east central state and was cut into rivers state after the 1976 boundary adjustment by justice Nasir.. tho some ndokis still remain in Bonny till date but are in the minority
@@ayebatarijuliapaxagiri2767 and ibani is not 100% ijaw .. it’s a mixture of ijaw indigenes and ndoki and Igbo freed slaves.. just like in one of the videos posted in this channel about a town close to opobo where the man was talking about his grand fathers name.. you could see that 3 out of the 4 names were Igbo names.. but most of those igbos were acculturated into ibani .. just like some ibibios were acculturated into arochukwu and some olukumi(yoruba) people in aniocha delta state were acculturated into Igbo
Nnaa Mehn tv, what else are you looking for, in your research? I think, you have found a bird of the same feather today. Working with this man, is a step, for the journey of a million miles. Kudos to both of you!!
That his plan used to exist as Ozuruimo festival which was held by Imo state government in the 80s. I love this guy and will follow him on all platforms. He is so correct. One of our problems is also how we talk to each other. We should take it easy with those who do not understand.
If 40% of Ika Igbo's will understand what this guy know, then most of them by now would educate the rest Ika, I have some of them as my friends who share same values and understands that they're Igbo's, but atimes when the Agbor guy's have Ika meeting, not Anioma region that's within ASABA, Okpanam, Abor Ebu Oko Illa Idumuje Ugboko and Ibusa, Ogwashi-uku are mostly bold and proud of their heritage and culture as Igbo's, but with those called Ukwani and Ika most of them are still confused about their origin, but from watching this program I have seen many ideas which can be translated into reality like what our brother said, that true setting up kind of igbo cultural day, may be through êrim Ji öfüü, New Yam festival, such can be used as a point to organise one igbo day in southeast, while invite most cultural dance's from across the Igbo's in the Delta state and the rest, but that might not start big at first time, perhaps organise it first in Anambra state,then keep organising by inviting different Igbo's from different town's and states to participate in the festival 🎎 while informing other chiefs mostly from across the niger like those in river's state, Calabar, Akwaibom, Kogi and Benue, plus the Igbo Nollywood guys will have a role to play by acting kind of unity movies that could state all of this messages across Nigeria. Because I have friends from Benue state Tiv tribe and they understand igbo language by watching igbo movie 🎥🍿, so it's another way to enlighten our brothers and sisters outside of mainland Igbo that we're One family undivided. Yes. Brother God bless you.in addition they have Yoruba in Kogi and Kwara state like Dino melaya And Saraki from kwara state but they never deny that they're Yoruba family, even though their geopolitical zone is in the northern Nigeria, yet they're proud Yoruba's. That's part of the teachings they should understand.i really appreciate you guys
That expression ' Ika igbo' known only in Igboland is unconstitutional (s.3).The expression is not known in Ika land .Does your brain tell you that your are helping your case by calling someone what he does not call himself? International linguistic code for Ika is :ISO Language code :639 -3 ikk, while Igbo and is dialects :ISO Language code:639 -3 ibo.l Ika has a separate language code from Igbo.The expression 'ika igbo' is a linguistic misnomer and people use the expression out of poverty of knowledge.
My brother God will continue protecting and guide u guys and more grace.cuz being in abroad has made me to realize that common sense is not comon u have common sense I like the way u break it down
Guy stop calling British on this British has nothing to do with this it was the Benin people who forced them to deny their identity because the Benin was killing them use them to burie their king and sold them in the time of slavery so they used the fear to accept that they are from Benin so that the Benin people will stop killing them or stop using them to Burie their king
Nnaa Mehn you are doing well and now you are getting those great minds...... Mazi ksnyi nebi Kingsley is a great mind and he have also contributed a lot for the restoration of biafra,..... Keep the great work going, one day the whole igbos and biafrans will come together that will be 2023.....
I waited for days, and I was like nnaa mehn notifications hasn't popped us,. Does that mean he is already tired. I was scared out of my wits. Bro keep it up.
ONE OF THE WAYS TO SPREAD THIS AWARENESS IS TO GET SOME IGBO MUSICIANS TO SING ABOUT THIS ONENESS OF THE IGBOS. SINGERS LIKE : FLAVOUR, AND JOE MORGAN FROM IKA. IT WILL SPREAD FAST.
Thank you, my Ika brother. I would like to know him more. Nnaa Mehn, I would have loved to have interview with you, but for the distance. I am from Mbieri also, but live in the Washington, DC area.
Mr kainebi I salute you,you spoke well, Igbo ethnic group envelopes many dialectal subgroups, therefore that word "Igbo"shouldn't be used to contrast a part of it. Saying" Ika people and Igbo people" is not correct because ika people are already Igbo people. It is better to say it this way,"Igbo people of ika, Igbo people of Ikwere or Rivers, Igbo people of southeast etc. My grandfather had this Ikéngà deity but was burnt in the 1990s by the missionaries.
He made an interesting point which I would like to point out here: That some of his people started distancing themselves from their brothers across the Niger for convenience after the Biafran-Nigerian war. But unfortunately, those who deny their Igboness for convenience have not been treated any better by the Nigerian state. The better they all come back to the Igbo race, the better for all of us. There is strength in unity. I strongly believe that the Igbos will unite one day
This is the most enlightened person I have ever seen here. This man is super enlightened, very knowledgeable, smart and pragmatic. God bless him. I am loving this channel more and more. We really need to start implementing some of these ideas. Great job 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏾✅
They r Igbos, but it has nothing 2do with Urhobo reference. Evn if d Urhobo doesn't refer 2 dem as Igbo, they r still Igbos. 4 example, in d North, all of d former Eastern Region tribes r seen as Igbo. 2dem in d North - Ijaw, Ogoni, Efik, Ibibio, etc all r Igbos. But dat doesn't mean it's true. Weda or not Urhobo refer 2 dem as Igbo, they r still Igbos
This is good , this guy understands the deal , because he is open minded how can you have all this similarities with Igbo and still deny the connection . I don’t just get it
Do you know that Igbo of delta have a strong vibrant Igbo traditions culture then those across the Niger. Check dia name names you will be shocked marvel with excitement 🤔🤔😳
Igbos say dat names don't matter, dat anybody can bear any name. I've been told by Igbos dat names of individuals & towns/villages don't hv any bearing wotsoeva. Here u r making a point, dat names actually indicate identity
@@ayebatarijuliapaxagiri2767 which Igbos said? You go just dey yarn dust sometimes. Why don’t you focus on your ijaw people and let igbos deal with their issues.
Irobos are the ones creating confusion in Ika ukwani cos their mother are married by indegenous Ika people. They even go as far as bearing irobo names instead of Igbo. But today the Ika are wiser now cos they see that their igbos are going into extinction 😊🤔
@@tochika3598 U ppl can't do without mentioning Ijaw in anything u r doing. Tufiakwa. Wen hv Ijaws ever gone near Ika or Delta Igbos? Wot is d link between Ijaw & Igbo in Delta State? There's no link, no boundary, no relationship. So how can Ijaws b confusing Igbos in Delta? Evrytin, Ijaw, evrytime Ijaw. Na wah o !
He is a brave son of the land! He looks like one of my aunty's son in Aba ohhh! Later people will come and tell us that we are not connected while the same liars goes all the way to East Africa and Sahara desert to bring in foreigners and claimed they're their people but our people closed to us they told us they're not our brothers & sisters. Devil is a liar and shame to them from their head to the least that is behind all this false lie 🤥
Nnaa Men, This brother has given the greatest incite to this project Igbo is one. There's nothing like similarly of Aniocha and the Igbos, this is a further discriminatory and wouldn't add value to getting Igbos together. So keep it up. Anywhere you go tell them that they are Igbo unless they want to ignorantly remain in self-denial. Ndewo
Nnaamee, you have just entered one chance, this our brother is probably the most Igbo soul-searching I have ever seen, you better don't let him out of your site, he is a great historian and I advise all Igbos to follow him on his page, he is an electrifyer when it comes to igbo project, I have followed him for a year and can;t stop doing so. ,, God Bless umunnem
Indeed loaded, simple fact, big kodos to you bro and i keep saying Igbos are wonderful people and a great nation if only they can unite as one people. Nnaa Mehn Tv keep going, for me your the best.
Ohanaeze Ndigbo should take the lead by organizing a meeting of all the traditional leaders from all these igbo speaking communities in delta, edo,akwa-ibom,cross-river,Rivers, Benue, kogi, etc, and hear their opinions or their reasons for deciding to distance their people from the mainstream igbos and ways to remedy the situation,
There is no difference in all parts of Igbo. All Igbos in Anambra, Delta, Rivers, Akwa-Ibom, Imo, Benue, Ebonyi, Cross-River, Abia, Enugwu, Kogi and Edo are the same.
Before the Nigerian civil war, there was a celebration in Nigeria called "Igbo Day", it was a day all the Igbos in Nigeria celebrated with a display of their cultural dances and songs. We need to bring it back. Your guest is very knowledgeable and noble.

If 40% of Ika Igbo's will understand what this guy know, then most of them by now would educate the rest Ika, I have some of them as my friends who share same values and understands that they're Igbo's, but atimes when the Agbor guy's have Ika meeting, not Anioma region that's within ASABA, Okpanam, Abor Ebu Oko Illa Idumuje Ugboko and Ibusa, Ogwashi-uku are mostly bold and proud of their heritage and culture as Igbo's, but with those called Ukwani and Ika most of them are still confused about their origin, but from watching this program I have seen many ideas which can be translated into reality like what our brother said, that true setting up kind of igbo cultural day, may be through êrim Ji öfüü, New Yam festival, such can be used as a point to organise one igbo day in southeast, while invite most cultural dance's from across the Igbo's in the Delta state and the rest, but that might not start big at first time, perhaps organise it first in Anambra state,then keep organising by inviting different Igbo's from different town's and states to participate in the festival 🎎 while informing other chiefs mostly from across the niger like those in river's state, Calabar, Akwaibom, Kogi and Benue, plus the Igbo Nollywood guys will have a role to play by acting kind of unity movies that could state all of this messages across Nigeria. Because I have friends from Benue state Tiv tribe and they understand igbo language by watching igbo movie 🎥🍿, so it's another way to enlighten our brothers and sisters outside of mainland Igbo that we're One family undivided. Yes. Brother God bless you.in addition they have Yoruba in Kogi and Kwara state like Dino melaya And Saraki from kwara state but they never deny that they're Yoruba family, even though their geopolitical zone is in the northern Nigeria, yet they're proud Yoruba's. That's part of the teachings they should understand.i really appreciate you guys
That expression ' Ika igbo' known only in Igboland is unconstitutional (s.3).The expression is not known in Ika land .Does your brain tell you that your are helping your case by calling someone what he does not call himself? International linguistic code for Ika is :ISO Language code :639 -3 ikk, while Igbo and is dialects :ISO Language code:639 -3 ibo.l Ika has a separate language code from Igbo.The expression 'ika igbo' is a linguistic misnomer and people use the expression out of poverty of knowledge.
My brother God will continue protecting and guide u guys and more grace.cuz being in abroad has made me to realize that common sense is not comon u have common sense I like the way u break it down
Great brother keep it up , is unfolding what the British has fold for decades divide and conquer tactics
Guy stop calling British on this British has nothing to do with this it was the Benin people who forced them to deny their identity because the Benin was killing them use them to burie their king and sold them in the time of slavery so they used the fear to accept that they are from Benin so that the Benin people will stop killing them or stop using them to Burie their king
@@nellypatrick6038what is the authority of your history?
You both should hold a real show or podcast.
I am so proud of this proud brother of mine.
I’m really so happy about this interview with this handson guy
They should mak people understand that local government is not a tribe, that it's not an identity but Igbo is the identity
This guy is very intelligent and wise
Wonderful
Mazi kanyi nebi! 💥💥💥
This guy is super. Very intelligent!!!! Kudos brother.
Nnaa Mehn you are doing well and now you are getting those great minds......
Mazi ksnyi nebi Kingsley is a great mind and he have also contributed a lot for the restoration of biafra,.....
Keep the great work going, one day the whole igbos and biafrans will come together that will be 2023.....
well done bro
I waited for days, and I was like nnaa mehn notifications hasn't popped us,.
Does that mean he is already tired. I was scared out of my wits. Bro keep it up.
Chukwu gozie gi for this beautiful task, you shall enjoy your labor bro. God bless you
You're doing great work. God will lead the way for two of you. Kudos!
am so happy with this man so much the way he speaks makes me joy
Thank you guys truth speaks for itself keep it up we are
going home
This guy honestly made me laugh out loudly as a real Igbo man he is 🤣
Very good one 👍🏿 👌 👏
ONE OF THE WAYS TO SPREAD THIS AWARENESS IS TO GET SOME IGBO MUSICIANS TO SING ABOUT THIS ONENESS OF THE IGBOS. SINGERS LIKE : FLAVOUR, AND JOE MORGAN FROM IKA. IT WILL SPREAD FAST.
And what is the job of Ohaneze Ndigbo? Useless bunch
@@Vinus739 very useless organization
This brother said it all.....exactly what I always knew. The Ika people as they are today are irrelevant in Nigeria.
Thank you, my Ika brother. I would like to know him more. Nnaa Mehn, I would have loved to have interview with you, but for the distance. I am from Mbieri also, but live in the Washington, DC area.
This man is gifted with wisdom
Nna mehn I suggest we have a new youth socio cultural group which include all Igbo speaking tribes
Mr kainebi I salute you,you spoke well,
Igbo ethnic group envelopes many dialectal subgroups, therefore that word "Igbo"shouldn't be used to contrast a part of it.
Saying" Ika people and Igbo people" is not correct because ika people are already Igbo people.
It is better to say it this way,"Igbo people of ika, Igbo people of Ikwere or Rivers, Igbo people of southeast etc.
My grandfather had this Ikéngà deity but was burnt in the 1990s by the missionaries.
The long awaited time is here I thank you people for your good works
He made an interesting point which I would like to point out here: That some of his people started distancing themselves from their brothers across the Niger for convenience after the Biafran-Nigerian war. But unfortunately, those who deny their Igboness for convenience have not been treated any better by the Nigerian state.
The better they all come back to the Igbo race, the better for all of us. There is strength in unity.
I strongly believe that the Igbos will unite one day
They are ashamed of doing that because of their guilt....
This is the most enlightened person I have ever seen here. This man is super enlightened, very knowledgeable, smart and pragmatic. God bless him. I am loving this channel more and more. We really need to start implementing some of these ideas. Great job 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏾✅
This guy has a calling. The passion is loud. He should answer that calling fully.
God bless you my brother an from Enugu we are one people
Thanks so much brothers you guys are doing a wonderful job
Am so happy to watch this.. please there are Igbo s also available in kogi. Benue..
God bless you mazi
Even uhrobo people refer to ikas as igbos and ika land as igbo land
They r Igbos, but it has nothing 2do with Urhobo reference.
Evn if d Urhobo doesn't refer 2 dem as Igbo, they r still Igbos.
4 example, in d North, all of d former Eastern Region tribes r seen as Igbo. 2dem in d North - Ijaw, Ogoni, Efik, Ibibio, etc all r Igbos.
But dat doesn't mean it's true.
Weda or not Urhobo refer 2 dem as Igbo, they r still Igbos
We will support your project of unification.Give us your logistics
Igbo is our central identity. But with different dialect s. Like mba ise.. ikwere.. izii ..izaa.. ngwa... Ika.. and so many of us .
This is good , this guy understands the deal , because he is open minded how can you have all this similarities with Igbo and still deny the connection . I don’t just get it
Nna mehn i thank you for your wonderful job you're doing, I wonder why our Igbo brothers will deny their identity, because of One Nigeria.
❤❤❤❤❤ yeah
Do you know that Igbo of delta have a strong vibrant Igbo traditions culture then those across the Niger. Check dia name names you will be shocked marvel with excitement 🤔🤔😳
Igbos say dat names don't matter, dat anybody can bear any name. I've been told by Igbos dat names of individuals & towns/villages don't hv any bearing wotsoeva. Here u r making a point, dat names actually indicate identity
@@ayebatarijuliapaxagiri2767 which Igbos said? You go just dey yarn dust sometimes. Why don’t you focus on your ijaw people and let igbos deal with their issues.
Irobos are the ones creating confusion in Ika ukwani cos their mother are married by indegenous Ika people. They even go as far as bearing irobo names instead of Igbo.
But today the Ika are wiser now cos they see that their igbos are going into extinction 😊🤔
@@ucol2068 Do u focus on Igbo issues? Wen u put ur mouth in Ibani issues u didn't remember dat it's not Igbo bizness & as such u shud steer clear
@@tochika3598 U ppl can't do without mentioning Ijaw in anything u r doing. Tufiakwa.
Wen hv Ijaws ever gone near Ika or Delta Igbos? Wot is d link between Ijaw & Igbo in Delta State? There's no link, no boundary, no relationship. So how can Ijaws b confusing Igbos in Delta? Evrytin, Ijaw, evrytime Ijaw. Na wah o !
Keep up the good work
There is no two ways about it, they are Igbo's. The lies has been told for a long time. This our brother is loaded and educated.
He is a brave son of the land! He looks like one of my aunty's son in Aba ohhh! Later people will come and tell us that we are not connected while the same liars goes all the way to East Africa and Sahara desert to bring in foreigners and claimed they're their people but our people closed to us they told us they're not our brothers & sisters.
Devil is a liar and shame to them from their head to the least that is behind all this false lie 🤥
Raw truthfulness
Nnaa Men,
This brother has given the greatest incite to this project
Igbo is one.
There's nothing like similarly of Aniocha and the Igbos, this is a further discriminatory and wouldn't add value to getting Igbos together.
So keep it up. Anywhere you go tell them that they are Igbo unless they want to ignorantly remain in self-denial.
Ndewo
Good one We are Igbos
May the lord bless you my brother kanyi ne ebi
Nnaamee, you have just entered one chance, this our brother is probably the most Igbo soul-searching I have ever seen, you better don't let him out of your site, he is a great historian and I advise all Igbos to follow him on his page, he is an electrifyer when it comes to igbo project, I have followed him for a year and can;t stop doing so. ,, God Bless umunnem
What's is his social media handle
You cannot change the hands of the clock. The truth is always bitter.
Excellent exposition, Igbo is one and must come together as one.
Indeed loaded, simple fact, big kodos to you bro and i keep saying Igbos are wonderful people and a great nation if only they can unite as one people. Nnaa Mehn Tv keep going, for me your the best.
Good one
Nnamehn you are doing great job bro ,be multiply blessed ,for you Mazi Ka Anyi na Ebi ,may wisdom that is in you never depart from your Generation.

I LOVEEEE WHAT YOU ARE DOING BROTHER.
Don’t go any further, you are who you are.
Wow... thank you my brother for enlightenment and may God bless you
THIS IS AN INTELLIGENT GENTLEMAN.
Ohanaeze Ndigbo should take the lead by organizing a meeting of all the traditional leaders from all these igbo speaking communities in delta, edo,akwa-ibom,cross-river,Rivers, Benue, kogi, etc, and hear their opinions or their reasons for deciding to distance their people from the mainstream igbos and ways to remedy the situation,
On point maama
Tis brother knows his identity as it relates to igbos and has embraced it. A man or woman denying his identity is lost in perpetuity.
There is no difference in all parts of Igbo. All Igbos in Anambra, Delta, Rivers, Akwa-Ibom, Imo, Benue, Ebonyi, Cross-River, Abia, Enugwu, Kogi and Edo are the same.
Just cannot stop appreciating this two persons, my hope is not hopelessness but hope that igbos will rise again.
It shall be wll with Nnamdi kalu
This man must live long
Please what is the of kaanyinaebi channel
Search for Ika na Igbo
EDO people actually originated from Igbo.
