This is reason why many Igbo groups in river state are confused about their identity.

I am not from Rivers and do not have any argument about their origin. Why should I? A people is who they say they are. Most Asaba people will tell you that they are Igbos. Although, you should be corrected. The father of the founder of Asaba(Nne bisi), Onojobo migrated from Igala and married an Nteje woman called Dibịa. Get the facts. The purpose of this discussion, should be educational, not to raise unnecessary hate amongst people who may disagree with you. For example, although we are all Igbos, an Anambra catholic bishop who was in an Imo diocese was recently refused by Imo people to be their bishop although we all claim to be one. Thanks to the Pope who is not an Igbo man, who has elevated this bishop to a cardinal. If you really want to discuss oneness, then let us have it. I am not a person that believe in dividing people into states, but check the records. Who has been against the creation of Anioma state? Our brothers in Anambra, Imo, Abia, Enugu etc. Every time the issue of state creation came up, guess who goes to convince the powers that be that Anioma people are not one of them.

There was this so called Igala Historian who a while ago was running his mouth off about how AHABA people father is "Nnebisi" and the rest monologue he went on with and also some old looking elderly man who claimed to be from Ahaba{which is doubtful because as We know many around Ahaba places indigenes often claim to be or come from Ahaba}.. You have just "scratched the Surface of The beginning of The True and lengthy history of NDI AHABA"with what you have stated here.. First of..There are presently today 5 Clans{Quarters} shrunk/decimated down from Original 9 due to Wars Strife and Slave raiding.. The 5 Clans{all originate from different locations from across the River.. ie EZEI UGBOMA NTA AGU AJI & ONAJE with ONAJE being the youngest &last that Nne business and his followers came and partly settled.. To attest to the fact that they all hail from different locations..THERE IS DIFFERENT SALUTATIONS&GREETING WITH EACH CLAN{UMU/QUARTER}. When "Nne bisi"arrived from NTEJE, EZE ANYANWU and other families were already settled in what is today known as Ahaba{as a matter of fact,Nnebisi ACTUALLY resided in EZE ANYANWU place along with his family and married one if his daughters.. How Come Nne bisi who settled{spearheaded}Umu Onaje that is the youngest of the 5 Clans if he is The "Father"?!?. Ezei Ugboma nta Agu And all are senior to Onaje.. All of these 4 Clans have their Historical&Ancestry trace to names&places across The River immediate {if in doubt..One simply just have to do their research.. ESPECIALLY THE SALUTATIONS}. The names and Salutations differences says A LOT.. Still researching into ONAJE.. What about ACHALLA and a host of other settlers from across the River that were emasculated into the different clans before THE ARRIVAL OF NNEBISI from NTEJE?. One sees The Culture Traditional practices and many more following Pure IGBO practiced AND NO Corruption or anything IGALA{unlike EBU}and yet The ones determined to extend their IGALA WHATEVER come on Social Media to make Spurious and False Claims. The facts are out there and they will be used to correct this "Pretenders" stories..

Interesting. The young interviewer means well, but unfortunately he has interviewed people that have very limited knowledge of the history of Asaba. A lot of the comments are a result of the lack of understanding of the interviewees. If you want to educate people about Ahaba, you should first seek out people that are knowledgeable about it. As one person has said, Onojobo, migrated from Idah, Igala and fell in love with Dibịa, from Nteje in current day Anambra. The story of Ahaba starts with the birth of their son Nnebisi. Let us stop here for a minute and think about what you have heard so far. There is a lot of comparison of "Igbos" in Rivers and Anioma people in Delta State. The truth is that the history of Ahaba is as unique as the history of other Anioma people or any other people in Nigeria. I invite the interviewer to come back and do a serious interview with the custodians of Asaba history for proper education of the masses. I once got into an argument with a member of our Anioma community who is not from Ahaba. I will save you the details, but he possed two academic questions to me. First, does language determine "tribe" and by extension does naming similarity mean that people share one ancestry? The second was a statement and not necessarily a question. And that is that people are who they say they are. We may not like it but when I thought about the statement, it makes sense. Now, for or against the argument whether Asaba, other Aniomas or Rivers are Igbo or not, think about this. If one of the preeminent founders of Ahaba was born of the prince of Attah of Igala and Dibịa of Nteje in Anambra, how does the Igbo culture define the founders ancestry? Remember that Ibo is a patriarchal society. The point here is that we like to break things down to where we can understand it, but sometimes we miss the bushes from the trees. Ahaba is made up of multiple ancestral lineages, but by far the dominant lineage are the descendants of Nnebisi, the son of Onojobo and Dibịa. Please seek audience from the educational committee of the Asagba's palace and get the unadulterated version of our history. Thank you.

Our dialets are wonderful and we should celebrate them. Let us look at the origin of the word Enu ani. I don't know if much has been documented about it, but it was used to indicate those who live on the highlands as opposed to persons that live by the banks of the river. Again, we are all one but the Enu ani dialect, although very close to that spoken in Asaba is still a bit different. Interestingly, the LGAs of ANIOMA today are more aligned in terms of dialect than the previous old LGAs. So, you will notice that Asaba, Okpanam, Ibusa and Allah/Illah are more closely aligned dialectically and the Ogwashi Uku, Isele Ukwu, Ubulus are closer and also you have Ika that has a dialect that is different than Enu ani, Ukwu ani etc.

As a historian concentrating on african history mainly Nigeria ancient precolonial history, my finding indicate that ahaba which has 99.9 percent of Igbo culture traditions norms value as compare to others ie igala or which you added. They speak Igbo, same shrines, dieties,with chief priest in charge. They also share same market days (afor eke nkwo orie).they leader called Obi with the powerful OFO a symbol of leadership in his possession. council of elders ie onowu, nze,ozo,ochie (we also have others from kogi bini but that of Igbo dominate by 85per),we have umu meaning children of this jus same as in Igbo land ie. From where I came from Akokwa in imo state we hv umuopia, UMUKEGWU, umuopara, UMUEZEAGA.🤔 Now u see the facts. Ahaba or asaba adopt umuada women leader which is common in all Igbo land.please take note of this important facts figures. They have same masquerades which ala igbos has.others are same marital rites marriage process,eating , dressing style language, naming process etc. However remember we have influence of other tribes like bini kogi jus like we have them in Igbo land in nsukka. Nsukka Igbo is very different difficult to understand but they are pure proud igbos cos of dia boundaries relationship with kogi benue idoma Of coz u don't expect igbos in agbor sharing boundaries with Edo to be same with that of onisha Owerri etc. Agbor is pure Igbo even if some claim not to b Igbo. I can understand that but education can play a role dispute that. Chime a dibia ( native priest) who migrated from ala Igbo married a bini woman give birth to agbors and others. It's a futher prove they are our son. In conclusion I will like everyone reading this pieces to take a stand on this useless identity crises created by Gowon just to discredit disorganized reduce the size of Igbo land and further creating states enemies among Igbos. Rivers state id the worst hit with identity crises 😊😊 very laughable shameful.

If you are a historian, you should pay attention to the history of Asaba. Let us get one stumbling block out of the way. A lot, if not most of Asaba people will say that they are Igbos. Your statistics that 85% of Asaba indigines originated from Igbo is dubious. Yes, there are multiple groups of settlers in the place called Asaba today, but the dominant group are descendants of Nne bisi who the father. Onojobo is an Igala prince that migrated to the area and married a lady from Nteje called Dibịa. This is just scratching the surface. If you are a historian, you should know that when people settle in an area, over time they intermingle with people they trade with. As has been said, a lot if not most of Asaba people will say that they are Igbos. How did this come to be. We occupied the banks of the Niger and traded with people on both sides. Over time, the names and languages merged as people began to intermarry. There are still certain traditions practiced today in Asaba, Allah/Illah and Ebu that are from Igala. Yes, over time traditions influence and interact with one another. History is not static. I have met Igbo people that speak Yoruba and have Yoruba names either because their mother is Yoruba or they were born there and for one reason or another decided to accept the area as theirs. Now, if they tell you that they are Igbos, will you argue that because they speak Yoruba and their name is Yoruba, they could not possibly be Igbos. As a historian, I expect your argument to have depth. Next time some one from Rivers says they are not Igbo, listen to see if you can understand what the person is saying instead of making superfluous arguments. If you are nwa mgbeke or nwa mgbe afor, so be it. Don't try to convince the person that she is nwa okeke or nwa okolie.
