When we think about Igbo efulefu, most people think about Iwuanyanwu, Orji Kalu, Nwobodo, Nwabara, etc, all people from the eastern part of Igboland. However, lately, some misguided Igbo people of the Anioma/Ibusa (in short Western Igbo stock) have been making anti-Igbo noises. I read that a 419 group purporting to represent Anioma and all Western Igbo issued a statement disavowing their Igboness and rejecting the election of Achuzie and other Anioma Igbo into the Ohanaeze cabinet.
While I am no fan of Ohanefulefu, I wish to make it clear that any Igbo, no matter what part of Igboland, s/he comes from will be treated appropriately if s/he engages in anti-Igbo activity. Igbo efulefu is Igbo efulefu, and it does not matter if s/he is from Anioma, Ibusa, Ogwashi, Asaba, Owere, or Umuahia.
If you are Igbo from Western Igboland and you no longer wish to consider yourself Igbo, you have only one option. Pack your damned bag and leave. Otherwise, we are coming.
I think this is the efulefu letter you are talking about.
quote: Delta North Rejects Ohaneze BY PIUS ODIAKA
OGANIHU Anioma, the elite non-partisan grouping of professionals from Aniocha, Ika, Ndokwa and Oshimili councils of Delta State, referred to as Anioma has rejected the offer to occupy the position of the Secretary General of the Ohaneze Ndigbo.
Rising from its monthly meeting, the association said that while it wished Ohaneze well in its re-engineering efforts, as it would like to see it emerge as a strong voice for Ndigbo, it couldn't, however, be part of Ohaneze. In a statement after the meeting, the group stated: "This is because such integration is not in consonance with the wishes and aspirations of our people, the vast majority of who are not of Igbo extraction."
The statement signed by the group's President and secretary, Engr.Igwe Enuoyibo and Mr. Patrick Ukah further noted that "although (they) have language affinity with Ndigbo, the presence of Igbo vocabularies and names such as Okafor and Emeka in the language variants of the Anioma people, names of its forefathers like, Idigbe, Asiodu, Ugbelase, Aligbe, Obaigbena, Irabor, Orewa, Tilije, Aliumona, Odogbili and Ossai clearly indicate a different ethnic identity of the Anioma people.
"Also, the vast majority of the Anioma people know their ancestral origins, including those that migrated from east of the Niger. More critically, the Anioma people have never realised their hopes and aspirations within the context of Ndigbo perception as recent and past experiences show.
"It would, therefore, be foolhardy to accept the offer of Ohaneze as this will affect the true identity of the people. The statement noted, adding that besides that this would not work. We Anioma would not be able to carry its people along.
"And it is our conviction that the relevance of groupings such as Anioma is absolutely dependent on the extent to which it can carry people along.
"We cannot but turn down the offer of secretaryship though not without gratitude to Ohaneze for thinking of us," said the communiquŽ.
The group, however, added that it would continue to encourage its members to relate with those of Ohaneze "on purely personal basis" and with Ohaneze on association basis, as a way of "building bridges".
Isn’t it funny? If these efulefu twits are not Igbo as they claim, why are they fretting about the selection of great Igbo men from Anioma, people like Achuzia, Okocha, and others to work for Ohanaeze? I suspect that this so-called “Aganihu Anioma” is nothing but one disgruntled Igbo man hiding in a Saddam-style hole somewhere in the US and churning out self-hating press releases. Pretty soon, he will start digging up junk and fake history written by Igbo haters to support his confused understanding of himself.
You know that a man is demented when he calls himself “Nwachukwu” or something like that and he names his "group" “Oganihu Anioma,” but he insists that he is not Igbo. He maintains that he is Yoruba, Igbudu, Apari, Olukunmi, Nzuzu, Igalla, Tiv, etc. I feel sorry for these confused people.
One thing is certain though. Every time you see a person like that, he is someone who has been jinxed after he initiated an anti-Igbo agenda and a superior of his quashed it. Almost without exception, they swear to you that they are Igbo, they speak Igbo to you, and then just like every other efulefu, they engage in anti-Igbo conduct. The only difference is that when he is caught, the Anioma efulefu starts saying he is not Igbo. If the efulefu "group" that calls itself “Oganihu Anioma” is serious that its "members" are not Igbo let them announce their non-Igbo name and see if anyone will waste time responding to them. But, as I said earlier, that group is nothing but 419.
As I have often said, for every Igbo efulefu in Anioma, there are one thousand patriotic Igbo men of Anioma stock. This does not mean that when an Anioma man has some complain to make about Nd’Igbo as a whole or even against Eastern Igbos, he should shy away from it. Read what this great Anioma son has to say:
quote: Compliments of the season!
Great gratitude for all your support. I couldn’t reach you all along because of the injuries that stemmed from the acid attack on my person during the last elections. Thank you Mr. Ogbo, President, Anioma Union and Anioma Women Group who performed, Anioma Union Texas, President Uraih and the Asaba Union, Ogbueshi Nwokobia. My host Mr. and Mrs. Nwajei Dr. Ashibogwu, Mr. Okonkwo, and Mr. Mokogwu, Ngozi Okocha, Umeadi and her husband Chukwurah, the Asaba Union Dallas, the Onianwas (Ibusa) the Ijehs (Ogwashi Ukwu) and the entire Anioma Union, Washington D.C., the California Chapter etc. The surprise came from Atlanta, those brothers that landed and helped in our campaign in Ezi, Nsukkwa, Obulu Kingdom etc…
Your support elevated our platform and despite the betrayal of APGA and the proven massive rigging of the PDP "Emma Okocha was second to PDP in the Anioma area!" (See Dr. B.IC. Ijomah Director of Strategy PDP, Press Interview after the elections)
Your support indeed has kept us busy. Every other opposition candidate has either picked up appointments with the Ibori government, or fizzled out.
Within this period we went ahead to increase the volume of our political movement by re-establishing the Ohaneze in our area. As the only Anioma member of the group present at the meeting we asked for two positions, the General Secretary and the Deputy President General. We got all, Colonel Achuzia and Obi Nwaka from Ibusa are now in the cabinet.
I understand why the debate is on. I have just finished a 48 page paper on Ohaneze, Izu Anioma; the South South; whether the Western Ibos?
If I'm invited by any Anioma Group within the coming year I would make my findings available, we shall discuss the various parameters and probably arrive at a better appraisal.
For now my motivations in reaching the accord with the Eastern leaders, their governors, etc. arise from the following. i) There was already a paper from the Itsekiri leaders of thought at Abakaliki seeking the Igbo support in their war against the Urhobors and Ijaws. The Itsekiris did not copy that letter to Izu Anioma.
ii) My group Oasis of Hope, discovered that the same Itsekiri went further to invite the OPC to Warri. OPC, Yoruba and consequently Obasanjo’s Federal Government support for the Itsekiri was decisive and shifted the balance of that war. Until now the small Itsekiri nation have the initiative in the Warri crisis.
iii) Anioma as of now has lost its vanguard teeth. Ika, Ndokwa nations are out. Anioma has shrunk.
iv) Ohaneze is like Ibo Union. Ibo union was founded by Dennis Osadebay and Oguegbunan Dafe. Later the Ogbarus Justice Kaine became the President in 1938. Ohaneze first board director was Osadebay when it was founded. Like I mentioned in my speech at the World Igbo Congress (W.I.C.) 2001, it was Enugu that offered Osadebay and Oba of Benin £8,000,000 – for the fight to create the Midwest. During the crisis 1966, Colonels Okonweze, Igboba, etc. were all killed because they were Ibo, so also were senior officers from Asaba, Ishiagu, Ibusa, Ogwashi Ukwu, Igbodo etc. During that war our people did not run towards Benin or Warri, they naturally ran towards the East and most were received well.
v) Delta, South South, I have over 150 pages clippings of invitations of the so called "Niger Delta, South-South, proper Delta" peoples. Our people are never invited. On the contrary, The Ohaneze keep inviting our people and the Ikwerre Etche Ahoada group who suffer from the same identity problem (see Dafinone’s Union of Niger Delta Guardian Monday, February 28, 2000).
vi) During the Oputa Panel Investigations, the Ohaneze invited our people and that was the first time under the sun we took our genocide case to the outside world.
Critically, our core interests; endangered language, culture, official discrimination, Asaba as capital of Delta, the Nzeogwu Revolution spilling of Igbo blood, merit, Christianity, education, etc. converge with the interest of the Igbos. If the Itsekiri group could invite the Yorubas and change the tide in their crisis, why can’t we look out for our kith and kin? The Nigerian Politics is fueled on by numbers, ethnicity, and ability to weave influential alliances. We should embrace our brothers of the East and at the same time look out for our Igala brothers and others from the Middle Belt, while we parley with those who have our interests at heart.
Having said this, the Easterners are to be blamed for our lethargy in embracing them fast. Have they told us what happened to Nzeogwu? Have they condoled us on the massacre of our people? Have they tried to rehabilitate the aging officers who fought for their Biafra? The Western Ibos were not in the Biafra map. The II divisions made of mainly Ika Ibos never surrendered and under Colonel Nwawo defended Nnewi the only major Biafran city that never fell until the end. Has Ojukwu or anybody bothered to ask after his health or other senior officers of the Midwestern Command since the end of the war? Right now Colonel S. Nwajei (Ibusa) is suffering from stroke, Colonel Trimmel is dead (Abor) and the Commander of Biafran Navy Anukwu (Agbor) is dead and his house in Boji-Boji burnt! These officers have never been paid anything…pension nothing and nobody from the East bothered.
They are not the same as Biafran officers…who agreed and declared Biafra. These people were Nigerian soldiers. Why have the state Eastern governors abandoned the Ika Ibos? During Okpara era, Midwest was funded by Enugu and our people gave them loyalty which led to the war solidarity. Now Enugu dismisses our civil servants, teachers, etc. Delta would never reabsorb them. To rub it in governors of the East have been appointing non-Igbo Deltas, Yorubas, and Urhobos into their cabinet. Our position remains that we must move in volumes otherwise you would be limited playing the "Politics of the Hermit"
Signed, Hon. Emma Okocha
Okocha points out that some miscreants of Ika and Ndokwa Igbo origin are engaging in anti-Igbo activities and are practically pulling those areas out of Anioma. Well, they are free to leave Anioma, but they could never take Ndokwa and Ika, and Ndokwa and Ika will never leave Igboland.
Now, a little History. According Christopher Lowell’s 1926 essay on the Igbos entitled “Igbos and their Neighbors,"
quote: During the Ekumeku resistance to colonialism, some Yoruba elements joined the colonialists and sought to attack Igboland from Benin. Some of those Yorubas were captured by Ekumeku warriors. The captives were taken to Anioma where they were given the name “Oluku” or “Onuku” - Igbo term for stupid person. The Olukus were slaves in Anioma. Because of their extremely small numbers, the Olukus were never able to assert an identity for themselves, except as slaves, and their presence has never affected the Igbo identity of Anioma. In their encampments, some of the Oluku slaves are known to describe themselves as Olukunmis.
It all makes sense now.

Thanks for that well researched post. It is always a good idea to put history to good use. To combine this thread with another one that Ednut started, I have the following to say.
Throughout history nations have fought wars. The victors in those wars have often made slaves of those they conquer and have often taken women, livestock, and other items as souvenirs. Even against God’s warnings, delivered through Prophet Samuel, King Saul did it when Israel conquered the Amalekites. It is no surprise that the victor would take captives home from foreign campaigns. Indeed, we should soon expect an influx of Iraqi captives into the US.
But, in no event does the slave assert any claims over the territory of the conqueror. Thus, today, from the conquest of Africa, there are African Americans in the US, but there is no such thing as a territorial African America in the US. The Black Panthers and others who have sought to establish such a territory have been crushed. Similarly, while there may be Igalla Igbos, Tiv Igbos, Yoruba Igbos (a.k.a. “Olukus”), and others, all captives of the Ekumeku and other Igbo warriors, there could never be any such thing as Oluku, Igalla, or Tiv territory in Igboland. So, the miscreants from Ndokwa and Ika, if they say they are not Igbo, are welcome to leave. Anioma is Igboland.
Finally, each time a person finds that he has to shout so loudly that he is not Igbo, all that person does is confirm his Igboness.

As short as this thread is, it has certainly been a very educational thread for many of us. Could it be that people like Big Steve are Oluku descendants?

It's your fault. At first, when Big Steve was at Chuck's forum, Steve admitted he was an Igbo man and he was proud of it. Then, you and your friends came and intimidated him and he became scared. That's when he started to say he is no longer an Igbo man.

More like "Pius Odiaka" a.k.a. Steve Nwabuzor. That stupid "Oganihu Anioma" press release was written at a cherubim and seraphim spider-hole in Michigan by non other than that ungrateful "Anioma" idiot named Steve Nwabuzor.
I am really amazed why Steve "Big Steve" Nwabuzor would deny his ancestral roots just to keep pace and belong with a people that never wanted him in the first place. It is disgusting knowing Big Steve for what he stood for during the days of Chuck's place when Bababoyz called him names.
How soon do we forget!

Kunle & TAEF, So what you guys are saying is that when you are "intimidated" or even rejected by your community (whatever that is) you should change your surname?
Maybe you guys should also tell every blackman/woman who is abused by a white or a someone from another race to start changing their skin colour, ala Micheal Jackson so as to be "accepted."
You guys will not stop amazing as to the level you will stoop to make what is obviouly WRONG to look normal and right.

(The Ibo chosen name, Biafra comes from the Bight of Biafra.

Why should Ibos, Africans call themselves by a Portuguese/ European name? Shame on the ignorant folks who run around calling themselves Biafrans without bothering to understand where the name Biafra came from. I am an Iboman and I am from Iboland or Alaibo…
This lad is an embarrassment to his own family I am sure. Since some off the wall school let him out with a little degree, he’s been tormenting us with his copious meaningless articles on per second basis! What a hypocritical ass he is for mocking himself without showing an iota of a shame? Does it matter that the Portuguese had a somewhat direct link to this name? Does the historical linkage with this name that has been over discussed by real brains not of any effect? The political and economic bondage suffered by the early people living within the Bight of Biafra had a direct correlation with what the Igbo have undergone in ozodi’s nigeria. Does THOMAS not know that names are given by people based on not one factor alone, that people give their children names using different variables as avatars, among which are: tribal relationship, historical events, sound, personal consideration so on. Listen to the argument of this pseudo intellect: “Why should Ibos, Africans call themselves by a Portuguese/ European name?” Why should it be alright for ozodi to append the foreign name Thomas, a name that is neither Igbo nor African to his identity? Is Thomas an Igbo name and if not why must it be ok for this village chump to run around and insult the sensibilities of people while holding onto a name that never had any African connotation? Isn’t this the height of irresponsibility for someone who does not have the slightest clue how the ethnic group he claims as part of is spelt? What’s Ibo mr dokinta ph.d? Now the world has been made aware who the unabashed IGNORANT moron is, ozodi THOMAS o.s.u.ji! This chap most definitely is another efulefu of the western kind!

Some people have the idea that Biafra originates from the Bight of Biafra. But that is wrong. There was the Kingdom of Biafra that ruled most of the ancient world about 50,000 years ago. Unfortunately, nobody talks about it, for whatever reason, I do not know. But, it is in the ancient maps of the world. If you wish I'll make a copy and send to you.
quote:419, Nigeria's Greatest Image Problem – NwekeFrom Onwuka Nzeshi in Abuja, 04.28.2006
Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mr. Frank Nweke (Jnr.) yesterday said the Advance Fee Fraud, popularly called 419 remained the greatest stain on Nigeria's image in the international community. “This negative perception that all Nigerians are crook Nweke said, has so permeated the psyche of people across the world that Nigeria, an otherwise big brand on account of her contributions to world peace seems to have been relegated to the background.
Nweke's comments came as the Federal Government launched the domestic component of the Heart of Africa Project with a resolve to re-orient the Nigerian people to take positive steps towards replacing the negative image associated with the country with a new and positive identity.
Crap! Total bunkum!! Much as the so-called 419 does not elevate the appearance of the banana country for better, the GREATEST danger to its imageless standing is the local islamic terrorism. If frank nweke the gutless Igbo efulefu does not have the wisdom to call the shots as it really is, the least expected of him is to shut the hell up! What’s wrong with highlighting all the activities that do nothing to help the already dampened image of the banana republic among which or rather in the lead should be the islamic BS, corruption, political assassinations coupled with outright incompetent leadership of obasanjo?

IgboBlood, if you are intrested in old maps, try the one by Forlani from 1566 or the one by Othelius 1570; http://www.afriterra.org/mapsList.html# These are to my knowlege among the oldest, relatively accurate ancient maps of Africa avaliable online. But... there is no map that is 50,000 years old, so I dare say the fellows thesis cannot be prooved onhand a map.

The Republic of Biafra is much older than the contraption of incompatible cultures called nigeria. Unbelievable!! It's all in the map above; zoom in for details.
Hail Biafra!!
Footnote: The yoruba and hausa must be allowed to work out their differences this time without Igbo interferance. No bleeding-heart Igbo liberals should respond to cunnying yoroba articles in ngwati press about cutting awusa/fulani to size. No Igbo demonstrators in Washington DC or carrying placards about awusa this, fulani that. This time, it is yoroba vs awusa; yoroba doesn't need help, it got doubletalk British-style or "shofisticated diplomacy." Besides, the Igbo doesn't need another back-bite trying to help a cowardly nation. Everyone must be free to pursue their national destiny, as long as they do not trade Biafran Oil again to gain British support.

Thanks for coming through. It’s refreshing to finally provide substantiation to those that have chosen to believe that the appellation ‘Biafra’ was haphazardly birthed in reference to our great nation-state. Daalu.

What of Imo and Abia states? By Peter Claver Tuesday, May 2, 2006
THE belated setting up of a committee to fast-track the development of Niger-Delta states is a subtle admission by the Obasanjo government that it had woefully failed the oil-producing states in their age-long demand for commensurate payback from a Nigerian State that had drank itself to stupor from its benevolent wells. Coming at a time Niger-Delta youths and militants have practically grounded the Niger-Delta and established an unassailable control of their environment and resources against a clearly incompetent, fidgeting and ultra-corrupt Federal Government, the setting up of the committee gave pre-eminence to raw power over reason in finding critical answers to the festering oil-related problems of Nigeria. Personally, I didn't have much qualms with such a committee as President Obasanjo empanelled and graciously chose to drive.
I have no problems with any measure that seeks to ameliorate the problems of the oil communities, which obtain in despoiled ecosystem, raped flora and fauna, irredeemable shackles of squalor in the face of obscene profligacy that fuel the conduct of government business, especially in the paradoxical Obasanjo regime. I have no case against any attempt to plough back a fraction of the very wealth that spew from a people's courtyard towards dealing with the multifarious contradictions that riddle their existential reality. My own concern transcends the present efforts that only go to swell the gluttony and greed of governors, local council officials and all other lackeys of the present dispensation. These have only excelled in diverting the resources that would otherwise have improved the lot of the people and have come to offer fraudulent support to a dubious tenure elongation project that would only exacerbate the woes of the people, especially those from the oil-producing communities. I believe firmly that the failure of the oil-producing state governors and the NDDC to stem the ravaging pangs of deprivation in the oil- producing states necessitated the conflagration in the Niger-Delta and the setting up of the present committee. It is equally certain that the committee itself stands to meet the same fate that bedevils present and past efforts because in conception and outline, the committee lacks deep framework that reaches down to the very jugular of the socio-economic problems that ceaselessly whack the oil communities.
Driven by the same characters that have compromised previous efforts, not much is expected from the new committee. Its shortcomings notwithstanding, one feature of the present committee is that it includes all the oil-producing states except the two South-East oil-producing states of Imo and Abia. This weighty omission is not, in the least, ameliorated with the attachment of a coastal tag on the committee. That was a cheap marginalisation mantra the Igbo will not buy! One wonders whether the problems the committee wants to deal with are more of littoral than oil-related problems. Methinks that the oil-producing communities share equal problems that require uniform solutions. One wonders how the problems of oil-producing areas in Imo and Abia states differ from those of other states or is this an ingenious way of furthering the maginalisation of the South-East, which assumes a clinical and technical dimension by the recent decision of the Obasanjo government? Come to think of it, oil-producing states outside the South-East, with little or marginal littoral value, were included in the committee and other oil-producing states outside the South-East with no littoral oil value were included in the committee. This leads me to believe that the inadequacy of the NDDC coupled with the corruption binge that has swallowed up the derivation allocation necessitated the continued decay in the oil- producing states was the causative factor that birthed this committee.
And the President, nudged by the defiant stand of the Niger-Delta militants, formed this committee founded on the same ancient concerns of dilapidated or non-existing infrastructures,environmental degradation, unemployment, lack of arable land, powerlessness, etc. These are evenly spread in the oil-producing states, although in varying proportions. If the concern is littoral, why did the Obasanjo government not include Lagos in the committee? All said and done, I would not want to go away with the impression that this government only listens to demands and arguments backed by force and violence. Strangely, this seems to drive the government's present resolve to deal decisively with the Niger- Delta issue such that it had to wait till it was rendered impotent to set up this committee, that stands to positively impact on the Niger-Delta had it come earlier than now.
One hopes this government is not inciting the oil-producing communities of both Imo and Abia states to violently source for help before it redresses this obvious and deliberate act of marginalisation. At a time the Ohaneze and its brood of irreverent contractors, corrupt Igbo governors, perpetually drunk Igbo industrialists, political scavengers of Igbo extraction in the state assemblies and the National Assembly and perfidious political appointees, are dancing naked in the name of support for third term, despite the staunch opposition of Igbo masses for such fraudulent projects, it is worrying that we have not raised our voices to protest this daylight shortchange.
