The next morning he arranged a bike to take me to the beach and other neighboring communities Which were mostly Mbembe communities and Igbo communities of Both Izzi and Ikwo extraction. We visited, Okpechi, Nko, Ofumana, Ofunama, Ebiom, Owakande, Obubra town and others,


you can't be Igbo and at the same time claim to be from any of the South South or North Central States. Isobo people are not the only Igbo speaking people in Cross River State, but unlike the others especially those of Izzi and Ikwo extraction who can claim to come from Ebonyi

because most of their people are from their even though their own community is under Obubra Local Government Area, Yakurr or Abi of Cross River, the Isobo people don't have that luxury because most of their people are in Cross River State.

The borehole in the community spoiled over two years ago and the community rely on muddy pond water for their daily use. I hope that Cross River State government will do something about these communities, not just those of Igbo extraction but all the communities that lack those social amenities in Obubra.

the Aji Festival is a fattening room ceremony, a rite of passage festival that celebrates womanhood... In the olden days, when young girls come of age, they undergoes circumcision after which they are kept in isolation for three to five month,During this time they are not expected to do anything or go anywhere. They will undergo series of training while being taken care of to usher them into womanhood after which they will be presented to the community during the Aji Festival.. Although the Aji Festival is still

celebrated by the people of Isobo but that of circumcision is not practiced anymore. After my visit to Biko Biko, it was time for me to leave but not before I was invited to break bread and drink wine with Izoda people and also interact with them.

The mixture of Ebonyi people with North Cross River and Benue is why Abakeleke Igbo seems distinct.

Abakeleke people are closer to North Cross River and Benue south than Central Igbo.

Let these Igbos in Cross River campaign to join their kith and kin in Ebonyi state.

Abakaleke used to be dust of the nation now it’s a city coming of prime.

Let them join Ebonyi state.

The number of Northern Cross River people and Idoma Tiv Benue people residing in Abakeleke today will shock you.

All these dribbling with words won't take away the fact both south south and south east were old eastern region, and unsurprisingly, share similar cultures and values.
If an Imo man eats edikang ikong soup, he would still have a feeling he's eating his mother's soup. When an ibibio woman or idoma woman dresses with a two piece wrapper and a blouse, she's no different from Imo state. Igbo tribe is erroneously isolated to present south east region. There's an Igbo tribe and there's an igbo language. What you erroneously call non igbos is motivated by dialect, else, how do you explain an Imo state man understanding significant words in the ikwere dialect than Nsukka dialect?
