Oba of Bini established Eko City ie Lagos and the King is Oba of Lagos till today. Aboh has Obi as Kings title from time immemorial, what some people said that they came from bini is backward migration. Bini as a great empire drew peoples like Lagos .When there was a crisis, Igbo went back to their homesteads which are Agbor, umunede, Aboh, Onitsha etc. Just like oso Abiola in 1992. How can a people forget their language and take up another language entirely? The Olukumi a Yoruba tribe have been in Aniocha Delta for more than 1000 years and yet they still speak Yoruba. The Oba of bini conquered Agbor, Aboh etc but allowed their Kings and their kingdoms untouched only that they pay tributes. From Igbanke to Onitsha are all Igbo with insignificant number of non Igbo migrants living among them. These communities have 4 market day calendar, new yam festival as their biggest festival, ifejioku and okparaukwu patrimony. Their towns and villages bear Igbo names and humans inhabiting these communities bear Igbo names not bini names and yet Igbo didn't have an empire and never colonised any people. Britain colonised Nigeria for nearly 100yrs and yet all the ethnic nationalities speak their native language as first language and then English or broken as the second.

Point of correction. The Olukwumis don't speak Yoruba. They speak a Yoruboid language together with Igbo which shows that they migrated from outside the current territory they occupy unlike Aboh that doesn't have any other language except Igbo.

To me, this is the most interesting interview that the interviewer conducted among the Igbo related communities in the Niger-Delta. Chief Odili is an intellectual Aboh (Ukwuani) man. He wasn't cowed by the interviewer into agreeing that he's Igbo because he knows his root very well. I was even surprised when he said that some of the Igbo communities that are found in Imo, Enugu, and Anambra migrated from Aboh. I'm sure the interviewer was schooled during the interview. He should stop saying that similar Igbo communities are Igbo just because they have certain words, traditions, and festivals in common. I'd acknowledge both the similarities and the differences, not claim any ethnic group - let the people define who they are. Ethnicity is just a human classification. We can be diverse and yet united.

Don't mind papa when he said that they learn igbo. That is lie. Nobody learn igbo, you can only make your igbo word lighter for other to understand. We all igbo has different mothers tongues which is intonation. Bini is tribe that migrated the way igbo others migrated to the place call edo. It was called idu befor colonial masters changed it to edo due to their intonation and written. Many igbo and Yorubas were together in that area called edo today, it extended to ile ife,which is in Yoruba land today. It is conflicts that scattered every one to different directions. Go and listen to obatala of ile ife, he said that they were together with igbo and many other in present ile ife which comprises idu. So when people said that they migrated from some place to place, it doesn't mean that they originated from the place.any igbo speaking dielect are igbo. You can be speaking igbo and said that you are not igbo. If is because you surrounded by igbo made you to speak igbo and throw away your language, why ijaw,urhobo,isoko,bini, ogoni etc did not throw away their own language. So try to question your beliefs sometimes so that you will get the clear understanding on who you are....

That we bear a common kinship to me, the ukwuanis, Abohs and Ikas with the Igbos can hardly be contested, however as with all things and in the passage of time which we hardly have control over, distinctions naturally set in along with attendant divisions on the basis of these distinctions; distinctions in culture , language variety , ethnicity and sub ethnicity. Cross culture also plays a significant role in the ethnic morphology, so that the outcome after centuries creates a distinct sub ethnic or different ethnic group altogether . The 'Idus' better known as the Benin empire had significant influences in the ukwuani kingdoms so that some names today are treaceable to an Idu heritage, though the influence is or was only this much. You cant call a Japanese a Chinese today though most of their words and phrases are either essentially same or very similar but differ in pronounciation. My opinion and overall concept about ethnicity in particular is that yes on the one hand we do bear a common kinship with the Igbos but more importantly that of a celebration of these unique distinctions and variants in consistent brotherhood and love for each other.

Aboh traded directly with Idah In Igalaland and not only at anam according to the British explorer Landers. Likely those trading in Anam were those not controlled by Idah. Inland Anambra people like Awka, Aguleria, etc used Anam etc as a port as there was no good steady river channel to navigate to main River Niger.

Chukwuemeka, thanks for your efforts in everything you have doing about unifying of the IGBO people in General. I respectfully disagree with the chief. I will like the chief to tell us the real meaning of the name Aje. My family migrated from Aboh, between the 14th, 15th century. My ANCESTORS migrated west to create today's Emu Kingdom, in Ukwuani west LGA. My ANCESTORS were decendants of King Osai, who ruled Aboh, around the period the chief was talking about. My ANCESTORS were warriors and priests of the deity called EZEUGO, the Son of EZENMO. They took the deity to establish Emu Kingdom. My ANCESTORS, instituted the biggest war deity in Aboh, called NNZE. My ANCESTOR, who's father was the son of King Osai, of Aboh, created Aboh and Emu Kingdoms NNZE, from the head of an IJAW WARLORD, who was killed in a battle he was invited to come and help his father's homeland from defeat by the IJAWS. The chief couldn't answer your question about who the Abohs are. The language the spoke then was not Benin, but IGBO and PORTUGUESE. Ancient History supports me. Aboh people, are IGBO, who are mostly JEWS, from Portugal; alot of people don't know this. IGBO PEOPLE ARE MOSTLY PORTUGUESE JEWS. I did my research to that point. The chief, also did not allow you to say what you know about the Aboh people. I hope he can calm down to listen to you, and your questions, when next you talk to him. Thanks again.

The next smart exploration about all these migration theories, I suggest, would be to conduct a simple ancestral DNA. Igbos, Binis, Yorubas etc have now DNA databases. This issue should no longer be a headache. Simple buccal swabs (from the cheeks) of a few men from these ethnicities would put all these theories to rest. We would then expect, for example, this chief's DNA to have elements of Edo.

My brother the lineage of the Ata is of IGBO blood. There was once a female Ata called Egbulejonu. She was not married until her middle age when she found a very handsome slave from IGBO land. Captured by the Igala enslavers while he was hunting. Egbulejonu married him and made him the first Achadu of Igala. Another Igbo migrant group who were very notable in the chiefdom of Igalamela were the ones who chased out Benin Ataship who invaded Idah and took over the Ataship of Idah. This information is verifiable. Not all the Igala migrants into IGBO land where actually Igala. The Igala migrants of Anam are actually IGBOS. Ajida rebelled against the Ata and fled to Omambala where he may have been told he came from. Do your research and carefully read in between the line. Igala monarchy Invaded some parts on the Northern side of present day Enugu state as well as so many parts of present day Benue and kogi states belonging to the IGBOS and slightly influenced them. A lot of Enugu men and women of note in the Idah kingdom of ancient times where actually IGBOS. if you check some chieftency titles of Idah, they are blatant IGBO names. The Igala people were invaders from The Wukari Empire. I am prone to believe that Idah itself was initially inhabited by the IGBOS before the advent of the Igalas. The word Idah is an Igala word meaning "last stop" which means they were not aborigines of that land. So many areas in Idah and around speak the IGBO dialect of Nsukka and I have learnt that many of them will tell you they bequeathed it from their ancestors. Some are bilingual (Igala and igbo). This says alot. The current attah of Igala stated in a recent article that when the Igala people came down to what is Idah today, they met a lot of people there including the IGBOS.. RESEARCH...

@@okekechidi3377 you are wrong bro, I disagree with you somehow bro, don't forget that even during the colonial days that Igbo speaking people extended towards Ida snd so many parts of the present Kogi state. If you doubt my points kindly search for the old colonial maps of Nigeria and you will see where Igbo territory covers up to, so forget the current map in circulation as map of Nigeria now. I also wanted to inform you that Igalas did not in anyway influenced the people of Northern Enugu in any way, they are 100% sub Igbo groups there, if you claimed that Igalas influenced them why then that the same Igalas failed to influenced the indigenous Igbos in Benue up till date, they still identify as Igbos up till date

This man's story is not based on scientific finding The Igbos in delta did not all immigrate from Benin,but from the east.and Bantu people. Ancestry DNA will prove that Igbo DNA is different from the Benin. My self ,I have the Igbo DNA from my Father,and Benin DNA from my Mother, historically my mother family came from Binin. And they speak igbo ,not Benin.why are delta Igbos don't speak Benin language? Delta Igbo is a mixture of Igbos from the east and and the Benins.

Imagine if this old man is your father, and your name is Odili and he has been telling you from your birth that you are not Igbo, why would you not believe him? Sad to see and watch this rubbish. If you are all from Bini, then do the right thing. Start teaching your kids Bini language and culture to revive your true identity. Hire Bini teachers. Drop your igbo language, drop your igbo culture. The worst thing is that he is a red cap chief, a strong respected symbol routed in the Igbo culture. Shameful...

There is definitely no need from argument the Benin empire was Igodomigodo( idu people) which happen to be the ancient Igbo and other ethnic group and after she was conquered and the oba was install a lot people relocate to other places,urobo,isoko and other parts...so it should be clear enough that Igodomigodo/idu was the ancestral home to many Igbo which clearly shows that Igodomigodo by name was ancient Igbo before the Benin empire was installed

Here is the problem or communication gap. Their land or community was conquered by the old Bini empire and they were ruled by the Benin king for many years, but they have been and are still Igbos. The falsehood was passed down that they were once under Bini Kingdom to mean that they are from Bini or are ethnic Bini people. The Ishan people as well have been and are even still ruled by the Oba of Bini Kingdom. Are they from Bini too?

When you don't know a people's story, don't speak about their history. Aboh people and the whole of Ndokwa/Ukwuani never had any bini military attack or rulership.

@@Vinus739 I did hear him say all those things. One thing you'll understand is that some of our people around that axis like to cling to the Benin story without really understanding that the ancient Benin was an empire made up of different ethnic groups including Igbo speaking groups. Some still confuse individual migration for group migration. I believe this elder is making the last mistake. There are some edoid groups that passed through Ukwuani land to settle down in Bayelsa and Rivers State just South of Ukwuaniland and their language is still edoid. This is because their migration was a group migration. It's most likely that some of the migrating people stopped and settled with the majority Igbo group at Ukwuani hence the language remained Igbo. The specific edoid groups are the Epie-Atissa(Yenagoa and part of Ahoada West) and Udekeme(Degema) people. Not to forget that both NW and SW of Ukwuaniland are all Edoid groups ( Urhobo and Isoko). My conclusion is that Benin origin of Aboh people can only be true if they were already an Igbo speaking group right there in the ancient Benin empire.

This has always been my argument. It doesn't make sense. Why is it that all the Igbo speaking people that are not in SE are now claiming they Bini. But everything from language and culture to even their village names are all Igbo. It makes no sense. Igbo never had an empire, that means Igbo had no power to influence. If they claim their contact with Igbo made them lose everything thing about Bini, how come the Ogoni who are small in number did not get that kind of erasure of culture and traditions. Even the Benue, the Igala, the Akwa Ibom. In fact, if we are to follow the man's theory, Annag people should be speaking Igbo or and having Igbo tradition. But instead Annag people share culture and exchange because of proximity with Igbo. But their language, culture and traditions are all Annag and they are a distinct people. So all these theory of they are Bini, makes no sense. My theory is that, these people are Igbo, who are under Bini empire, as things fall apart like the Soviet Union and Russian Empire, they retained their Igboness and moved on with their lives same way Those former Russian Empire people kept their names, and languages but yes influenced by Russia.

Nonsensical history. The Nri kingdom was very much the first kingdom and in existence far back in the 5th to 9th century before they were conquered by the bini empire towards the 10th to 11th century. Aboh people are igbo people. There's a difference between ethnicity, language and dialect. All these people giving history half baked history are only complicating issues for their descendants. The first igboman that was kidnapped and sold into slavery was an ashaka man and he identified himself as an igboman. The igbos in delta should stop this primitive and myopic ethnicity division. That's the reason the region is highly underdeveloped.

Why do you say it is nonsensical history? Learn to be civil and do your own research. Also just like many commentating on here, the goal of Nnaa mehn is to learn more about Igbo towns and people. Because a narrative does not suit your own limited understanding is not a reason to be hostile. This is why the elderly guest said it is this Misplaced Arrogance that makes ANIOMA Igbos look suspiciously at Igbos across the River Nigeria. Also this is why Igbos are politically irrelevant in the grand scheme of Nigerian Politics.

This man's historical account is senseless and inaccurate. On no account would you have originated from Bini without a trace of word of Edo language in your lexicology and socio-political practice. It is good that he said on arrival, they met the indeginious natives with whom they integrated so to claim that the Aboh people are from Bini is totally a deliberate misrepresentation of facts and misleading. How many of you from the Bini landed in Aboh or Ukwuani to the extent that you are claiming that Aboh people are from Bini. This man has not a good grasp of the history of the Aboh people. Aboh and her people are all IGBO. I think he should stop dissemination of false history.
