Some claim it derives from the Yoruba word 'Oyinbo' and was adopted by Igbo speakers in the 19th century, citing S. Koelle's Polyglotta Africana where Igbo groups used 'Onyeọcha.' Others argue it is a longstanding Igbo word from early European trade contacts, with references to Itsekiri usage and Igbo terms like 'Beke,' leading to tribal exchanges and demands for pre-1700 evidence.
