In the two years I have been on Nairaland, I have learned lots of stuff....and I hope to keep learning.

Sadly, some people think that knowledge is a joke.

The fact of the matter is that it isn't. It is wonderful to know something new....regardless.

So, sorry.....but your jokes are in bad taste. If you have nothing to say...don't say it, and appreciate the fact that someone is doing you a favour by sharing some knowledge with you.

I know you are now going to mock me....so...go ahead. But remember.....it won't benefit you, or affect me at all.

Grow up.

Jukun people according to history were sharing boundary between the Idoma in Benue state and the Ndoma of Nassarawa state both in the old Benue plateau, the Jukun were homely accommodating they accommodate the Tiv who migrated migrated from Congo, gave them home,land and cattle to rear.

The Tiv people seeing the Jukun as a nice people and decided to settle down quickly having gone through violence that lead to their migration. After some years and increased in numbers, some of them find their way to Markurdi area and found the Idoma people there, they chase the Idoma people out of Markurdi and continue the chase till today. They were totally a stranger to the Idoma unlike the Jukun that knows the details about them, the Jukun nickname the Tiv as munchi meaning they ate the cattle instead of rearing them.

The Tiv people reside and dominate Benue, but the real owner of the state are the Jukun and Idoma, that is why if anything happens in that river (river Benue) its only Jukun and the Agatu people which is the Idoma people that eligible to enter the river.

I graduated from UAM, many thanks to Engnr in society. Waiting for Nairaland on Tiv and Idoma history.

OP I saw somewhere in your post you made mentioned of the Agatu people of Benue State; are they Idoma or Jukun
well all i can say is that they are neighbors & u should also know that many tribes relates but deny each other in mordern history because some wants to cave a space for themselves. So agatu should be jukun

I served in wukari, I noe for fact dat d jukuns r warriors n dey love to fight. the tivs hate the jukuns wit passion(mayb because of a war whr d jukuns showed dem shege grin), they revere crocodiles(I ddnt get the whole gist, I ws told a particular croc coms to greet the aku uka once a while n nobody dares touch or obstruct the crocs path)
they r rilly friendly but u dare not anger them, they r also 'traditionist' masked under d guise of 'church' people.
they always fight wit thier Muslim convert brothers. I witnessed 3 of such wars b4 nysc decided to relocate me zing, whr I met the mumuye's. extremely nice pple. *winks winks* grin
