I use Igbo translation app to English an it's detected 98 percent so with that conclusion Igbanke or whatever is Igbo



many Igbo decide to hide their identity during an after the war for fear of label



Yes many Igbo speaking communities in the so called south south even the ukwanis in delta state that speaks clearer Igbo are still vehemently denying being Igbo till this day.

Nobody invited them, they settled in Benin as offsprings of slaves of the Benin kingdom, Benin and Edo people never for once spoke about them, if they are tired of being in Benin, they can pack and go to where they like. I wonder why all these hysteria, Benin people have never talked about igbanke, inconsequential topic.

You're deceiving yourself.

Assume they truely settled in your land, the name of the settlement would have been Benin name and you would have influenced their language and culture just as many fulani in Nigeria can't speak fulbe but only speak hausa.

I think I made my point, the issue about them is totally inconsequential, I have never even heard about them before, stop dragging the name of of the oba and the Benin heritage over nonsense...it will be descending to a low level to start arguing about names given to locations...we all know places can bear names, does that mean everyone don't know who owns the land/state. Talk like a grown man or go get a job. Idle troll.

Gibberish...lots of people were in places,but it's about who established the place and owned it... don't forget hunter gatherers were wandering the earth aimlessly, before homosapiens came in and started developing tools, systems etc...the Earth has never been empty, homohabilis species roamed before even homoerectus. It is who made a place, who built it that counts... before the British monarchy took the lands they possess today, Irishmen, Scots, Welsh roamed in it. Stop talking like a primary school kid.

Claiming people's land and saying it's inconsequential?
