He is on his own. He is one out of the millions. He can go to anywhere he wants. If he likes he should relocate nobody is begging him to be part of Anioma . His opinion doesn't matter.
Ukuwani trumpet stop selling this lie to our people, you and that old full are claiming you are from Edo but you answer igbo names you have 4 market days like the igbos not like the Edo people you have ikenga like the igbo tell me what do you have in common with the Benin people? By the way my name is nduka am from Abbi and i can't have anything to do with people i don't share the same cultural value with thank you.
We the Edos don't force anyone to be part of us ,if they recognise us as their brothers so be it,we love ukwani people,we live together,so some igbo people should stop forcing people.
When all of them speak the always point to Benin Kingdom why lbo still pushing their head it's always pain them they don't call lgbo rather than Benin.
The igbos are not begging you or any one to be igbo. It is like a yoruba man saying l am from Akure, l am not a yoruba man, my mother is from yoruba, but l have nothing in common with yoruba. The man is a sour grape, it goes to show old age doesn't mean wisdom.
Oga, please common sense which is the most basic tool in science tells you that you are Igbo and I think you guys lack this . We are igbos both spiritually and culturally
Sir, you were quick to mention that Ukwuani intermarried with Ndi-Igbo, but please, tell the world what language Ukwuani people speak or which tribe and cultural values aligned the most with Ukwuani's? Is it not with the Igbos and not Benin. In this age of technological advancement, how can you allow yourselft to stoop so low as to deny your Igbo identity. pls., respect yourself and do yourself a favour and do the research so you don't deceive the younger generation
Prearranged interview. 1st question on about Ukwuani and he brought Igbo people into it and the 2nd question, was using a tag, unscrupulous people. What an interview, with ulterior motive😂😂😂
Language is not all over the place, we have everything in common with the ibos, we have nothing in common with Benin people, the urhoboa, or the isekiri . Ukwanu people have everything in common with the ibos. We bear almost same names, share cultural identities, ikenga, ofor, have same name for animals and trees e.g ogirisi tree, and many other cultural similarities. Please watch Nigeria movies and you know how close we are together. Am from Abbi, i totally disagree with you. You have right to your opinion. You cannot brainwash every one just like you use bible to brainwash fools that listen to you. What you saying make nonsense. This is bot a learned man.
His mother is Igbo and his father Ukwuani and he is not Igbo. Ukwuani people speak bia, have four market days, women tie two wrappers on their waist, iwa akwa, Igba nmanwu are the same. Did I hear him speak 'ha ncha bu ofu" Why do you speak Igbo language and still dey yourself the identity. Shame.
This man is talking out hatreds and lies he doesn't know anything about history,abd Ojukwu never force anyone for Biafra we are in one region before Biafra was declared stop deciecing yourself you know Nigeria is not one but you were saying you preferred to be in that place called Nigeria,most of us don't know anything
Great job and kudos again ukwuani trumpet . My personal position and opinion on this matter is not quite far from what my brother just said. Don't get me wrong , I love everything about the Ojukwu Biafra with emphasis to the 'Ojukwu version of Biafra' and desired that that Biafra come to pass. I also love a whole lot about the personality of the man MNK. The truth must be told however that there is a lot wrong with an expansionist version of Biafra being peddled today. Part of Ireland were first to take their leave from the United kingdom , Scotts are already plotting their own exit . Why? Its not far from the subject here. If you want to sell a Union , sell it as a union with every group well and equally endorsed and respected , not when you promote and project one group as principal and others as only sub units or offering a union as a collateral for expansionism. Today many think Scotts are actually English. They embarrassingly find it difficult to have to explain their difference or distinction now and then. If you are ukwuani , Efik ,yoruba etc , the identity of that heritage alone should afford you your first dignity wherever you go without confusion as to who you are. That is a chief function of the term heritage or ethnicity etc. They account for the totality your identity, as a summary of your identity and who you are without question. Not when someone confuses you for someone of another group or calls you something else before you try with difficulty to explain your identity and they themselves then try to wrap their heads around what you are saying. They have made it clear that they are only endorsing just one heritage in this Biafra and you either subscribe to the emasculation of your identity; in other words what accounts for your identity thereof to become part of that union or take your leave without of course forcing you to do so. so lets be wise! The second matter excuse my lengthy write up is as to our Benin origins or affinities at the very least. Lets react and contribute , but I start with this . Many of our words are Benin in origin. 'Isafe' is from the Esan word 'Isahan' 'key' , 'kato' or 'to' is from the Esan word 'ghato' for 'prolong' you here the Esan say 'Oba ghato kpere' 'oghare' is derived from esan 'oghale' sharp objects or knife 'mgbakara' is from the esan 'ugbanaka' ladder 'ekwo/akwo' from the esan 'ekhu/akhu' and many others like 'ughegbe' etc. I believe these do validate our Benin origins . This is my own first take and contribution however.
I completely agree with u brother . We are bendelites and all tribes in Edo and delta have their origin from Benin . This is why Biafra can never come to pass because it’s deceitful and a scam trying to impose one”s self on others. Even part of the so called Biafra have their origin from Benin as well and we are all south south geographically.
I would have ignored this, maybe call it ignorant talk, but too many ignorance is being displayed, so I have to speak. 1. Benin people didn't migrate from oduduwa, rather an oba came from oduduwa where they had an agreement with the Ogiso dynasty to live together in the arrangement best known to them. Google is there. The Oba also said same, so I don't know how a supposed pastor and an educated elder came to his conclusion. 2. You will have to explain how & why you migrated from Benin kingdom which is a stone throw away and settled around the isoko and urobos but have 80 percent resemblance to Igbos whom you claim are far away from you. Hundreds of years with Benin, hundreds with isoko isekiri Urobo, no record of Igbo invasion of ukwuani land yet you feel your similarities are just mere coincidence. Ask questions 3. Only a coward or foreigner would flee from his settlement without ever going back to reclaim it. The fact that war came to Benin and you fled without looking back on how to reclaim your ancestoral land only means one thing.........
Michael is not English but Hebrew. Most of the so called English names are Hebrew and Greek names taken from the Bible and anglicised. The people in Benue who bear same names as Ukwuani are Igbos of Benue. There are hundreds of Igbo villages in Benue. Incidently they don't deny they are Igbo. This pastor lacks historical knowledge. The Urhobo, Isoko, Esan, Igbo etc were all living together in Igodomigodo(now called Benin) before the coming of Oromiyan. The present Oni of Ife has acknowledged the Igbos were there neighbours in Ile Ife before they migrated. There are people of Igbo origin indigenous to Yorubaland today. Ife, Ugbo, Owo are names in Yorubaland also found in Igboland. You have Ugbo and Owo in Enugu and Ife in Mbaise, Imo State. Human beings are always on the move, never static. The Gikiyus, Luos and Igbos have common ancestry. Half of Igbo in Germany are married to Luo women. There is a similar between in both language and culture. Hence the chemistry. The interviewer also lacks knowledge of history. During the Nigerian Civil War, Ukwuani Elders wrote a formal letter to the Federal Government to remove them from Igbo ethnic group. It is on record. It was a move to avoid massacre. Let your interviewee be knowledgeabl persons who know history especially of migration and ethnology. This pastor is devoid of both.
People like this is one the reasons Ukwuani is so backward. Mr ignorance, go and study origin of migration even into Ukwuani kingdom. Different clans that made up Ukwuani migrated from diverse sources not only from Bini. No matter what you try to claim, in as much as you speak "Bia " you are an igbo man. Wa is for the Yorubas while Zo is for the Hausas. If you know your history you will know where you are coming from. Ukwuani trumpet stop this deception. Check your culture as Ukwuani people and check igbo culture cultures and traditions and tell me the difference. 4 local days in a igbo celendar where did we borrow it from as Ukwuani people, is it from Benin ? We are igbos and you can't change it
Ukuwani trumpet stop pushing this lie , am an ukuwani man from Abbi my name is Nduka and man is saying that him and his family members are from Edo people he as nothing in common with, why the Igbo have ikenga and ofor e.t.c.
@luckyvincent5599 My own position is that we do have other affiliations like Benin , urhobo-itsoko and igalla affiliations and not only 'ugbo' affiliations. Ugbo being what igbos were first referenced as before the usage of Eboe , Igbo or Ibo about six centuries away. That is why you call palm oil 'ofe nde ugbo' ,'the staple soup of the ugbos'. Further have you asked the question why a lot of our words are Esan/Benin in origin or why there ever was ever the claim of the Benin origin. It suggests to me that we are not ethnic igbos but only relatives of the igbos as we are to these other groups. Dissect the Itsekiri dialect and you are looking at close to 75 percent Yoruba words , but they are not Yorubas. They are from a different clan in ancestry mixed with a dominant Yoruba group. Yes we have a dominative 'ugbo' affiliation but that is not all about the ukwuani heritage.
Old man, old full. What is ukwu in Yoruba, fulani hausa and Igbo? What is ani in all the groups I mentioned above? This man is an embarrassment to himself and his family.
This man is so shallow in his knowledge of history, or economical to the truth. These are the kind of persons that should not be given any platform to propagate ignorance and falsehood in Ukwuani Nation. This man cannot stand a true test of the knowledge in any debate. In his first statement, he contradicted himself. The Edo or Beni do not know you as a descendant. We all know where we come from. My father used to say that he who has met his father has met the ancient people. This man is porous in his expositions!
He came from Benin, settled in Umuebu thar hares land borders with Benin but cant speak Benin. Uche bu ekpa. UT you are calling us Ukwuani people who know we are Igbo as unscrupulous. Nbene wuru
We will keep correcting this misconception and misleading misinformation spread by of course certain members of a mostly egoistic igbo group who don't understand anything about affiliations, heritages or even the basic concepts of history and ethnicity and are the gross confusionists here. The word 'igbo' is only even about 200 years old in usage and never used by say 5 generations of even their own fore fathers. Which of our ukwuani ancestors ever called us igbos ? i ask when their own forefathers did not use the word. Falsely calling relative groups igbos referencing only a 200 year old history is only a brand of egoistic politics called expansionism. The de facto realms in the now southern Nigeria between the 11th and 15 th centuries were the Yarba , the Benin and the Biafran realms. The Yarbar group now known as the Yoruba. The middle realm the Benin realm was in addition the de facto power block of that era. It is crucial to understand this era of expansive Benin dominance as different from the much compressed Benin of today. The Benin empire established towns as 'eko' as far as the Yarbar axis and stretched as far as Onitsha and in fact actually established Onitsha. Onitsha meaning 'ono chie' an occupied area occupied by the then Benin Oba through one of his princes. Yes ukwuani by accounts would have fallen under the Benin block at this era. Please pa Elugbe is not all together incorrect in his oral account of our history and please and please, I am not trying to render the account of Pa Ogwezi wrong or disputed either. Both accounts are valid but referencing different periods as well as accounts of our ukwuani history and helping us to do a proper trace of our history and origins. It explains why we have certain Benin elements in our names and also in our dialect. look at Pa Elugbes account this way, if what you call Ogun state today becomes less than half of it in about 8 centuries. Their descendants who are no longer in a geographical Ogun state will still tell the account of their ancestors as coming from Ogun state. @ukwuani trumpet keep up the good work of updating us on this topic.

Do you know how much you share with Urhobos and Benins?
If he is from Benin let him go back to Benin and leave igbos alone
God bless you dear
Is not by force we are not igbos. Besides every body have the right to bear any names of their choice.
We the Edos don't force anyone to be part of us ,if they recognise us as their brothers so be it,we love ukwani people,we live together,so some igbo people should stop forcing people.
What is the meaning of Elugbe? What name is bini kingdom called before it became bini?
See you see Bini, yet you do not speak their language but speak Igbo na wa for some people, though.
What is the meaning of Elugbe ?
Igbo people fail to know that they are speaking some Benin word when they speak, if they don't know that.
All of you who are denying being Igbos shall definitely regret it when the time comy even this man
W
When all of them speak the always point to Benin Kingdom why lbo still pushing their head it's always pain them they don't call lgbo rather than Benin.

We Ukwuani and Igbos are Siamese twins
You are speaking for yourself.
