SOUTH EAST; NOT A TRUE DEFINITION OF ALA IGBO

When you say Igbo people are only in South East, know it that you are wrong. Ndi Igbo transcends South East into the North and South South. Stop making the mistake of using the regions created by Nigeria-British government to map a people.



Yoruba too are not only in South West. There are Yoruba people in the North. Both in Kogi and Kwara State.

Even Ijaw people are not only in South South. There are Ijaw in South West.

Igala people are not only in the North. There are Igala people in South East. Nigeria government guided by Britain established these confusions, for chaos and easy external governance.

When people wants to describe Ala Igbo and they go to draw a dot at the area they call South East in Nigeria map, I laugh. Ala Igbo is far beyond the dot you call South East.

Ala Igbo moves deep into South South, and a little into the North. I mean Indigenous Igbo people.
Nigeria as a country has done a lot of damages to the people trapped inside Nigeria.

This is why I keep saying it that Niger Delta is not an Identity. Those fighting for Niger Delta have not told us if they intend to divide Ala Igbo into two and sack those without oil.

The creation of South East is to make you think Ndị Igbo are small. Landlocked and not worthy to be a nation.

These are institutional lies implanted after the war to dissuade you from thinking of secession ever again.

Just as Nigeria uses One Nigeria policies to cripple you, they also created South East to divide and keep you in check. Make you think that you are like a size of a dot in Nigeria.
