Truly all the unique and diverse ethnicities are worth celebrating and promoting because of their rich uniqueness. Further the true spirit of brotherhood and oneness lies in both respecting and celebrating these diversities. Respect the heritage of the ikwerre man, respect the heritage of the ika , the igbo etc. What must be guarded against is what is called ethnic expansionism or ethnic emasculation, the type the Fulanis played on the Hausas without apologies to anyone. Lets learn from the failures of the Hausas who will have to fight back at some point that allowing other groups to both tell your history by proxy, claim to represent your heritage by proxy and then stalk you to subscribe to his heritage is indeed a ploy and tactic in the game of ethnic emasculation. Perhaps you can guess the group I am talking about. Not all of them though but the narcissists among them. As custodians of your heritage , the onus of its preservation to ensure its unblemished handover to and through the generations lies solely on you.
nice talk. its simple to understand. very simple. now that we went to school we understand all these lies. ikwerre is igbo and nothing else. benin only came to tghat land to distort the culture.
These are the same elders that have been lying for decades about Ikwere being from Benin. I hardly expect them to say anything different. Even if you your ancestors were Benin as you claim, i put it to you that you are now more Igbo then Benin.😊
