Geologically speaking: The Niger Delta Basin is underlying the following states: Abia,Akwa-Ibom, Bayelsa, Cross River, Delta, Edo, Imo, Ondo and Rivers.Though what we have in Cross River can also be called the Calabar flank which is a sub-basin. These are states that we have the Akata, Agbada and Benin formation which is the atratigraphy of the Niger Delta. The Delta might seem to be jst between Rivers, Bayelsa and Delta today but the early delta started developing several kilometres northwards of d present day Delta( talking abt geological Delta nt Delta state o) 1 Like |

DelticStephEn: Do you know people bear abiodun, ikponmwosa, irabor in agbor? go to the palace of the dein of Agbor and make inquiries. for example agbor is short for Agbonifo(meaning lineage), tell me how that name makes sense in igbo. Tell me how ofugbon which means palm oil makes sense in igbo. I also remember watching a traditional ruler of one anioma town(been long cant remember d exact town) recount their history and it wasnt far off from what i am saying. lastly onye owa.. you know someday, an owa person will claim they were never same as someone from agbor. He may even cite that he has a different crown he answers to, by then people would have forgotten how it all happpened. I once used to call myself delta igbo, but as i grew up i started asking questions and despite the fact i grew up at home, no one seemed to provide good answers till i had that project to write. I sometimes wish we have a nicely documented history like the binis who even have the addresses of the tombs of all their queen mothers(even those who were buried 2 centuries ago). hopefully someday one of us will put these things together. Right now we face an immediate danger of the ika language been lost, this is worse than not having a record of ur ancestry. 1 Like |

einsteino:no offense to u or to cause problem o, I know an Agbor boy whose name is Kehinde, I used to confuse him for yoruba until he told me he is from delta, I was also thinking it's Itsekiri until he said Agbor... then I asked him how come the name and he told me he was named after someone who helped der family dats yoruba. so if tomorrow dz one u guys are having identity crisis is ur place someone who come and say Agbor has der history in Yoruba land coz there people bear yoruba names...lol |

barcanista: For your information, majority of the countries in the world contain multi-ethnic nationalities working towards a common goal. Go to Ghana, South Africa, Iraq, Iran, Jordan, China, Russia, Brazil, UK, US, Mexico, India, Pakistan, Canada etc. In Nigeria, every tribe wants his own country! Go ahead and dismember Nigeria into 300 tribal countries! |
