You stinking vulture never liked the truth!
Nigeria survived and did exceedingly well during the war without the ibos. On the contrary, ibos who were deprived of Nigerian food and meat from the North saw hell on earth and died in their millions without Nigeria! Who are the leeches here, you gawky mouthed vermin!

QuotaSystem:
I thought the Niger Deltans wanted Biafra too...

...clearly Wike and Riverians do not...and their government didn't waste any time to give us the benefit of doubt

It is getting increasingly clear that this Biafra movement is located only on web browsers and in the hungry hallucinations of touts and street urchins

coolscott:

It is an insult to associate us in Rivers State with movements engineered by pple who we doubt think through properly before they take a position, much less before they act.

The people of Rivers State, with ancient kingdoms and political structures spanning hundreds of years before the white man came.

Please we have not much in common with those south east people whose current day chieftaincy system was instituted by the white man because he needed a way to govern them in some sort of organised way. The white man had to install paramount chiefs for them so that his indirect rule could work.

It pays to know more about the country we call ours. Of course it gets us better informed, but besides that, our social story (both present and especially historical) is that interesting.

Xpaz:

Bro relax.
you sound so pained and angry.
d fight for freedom is not for d Nigeria Government or d politicians benefiting from d Nigerian Gov.
It is for d Biafrans and d future of d next Generation of Biafra.

Mr Usual Nigerian Idioot,

And good night

You people are just very funny, dubious and spurious in so many ways. Why is it that you leeches are always fixated in deciding for Igbo speaking people, which part should identify with their language and which shouldn't? Very nauseating it has become...Can't you guys survive n Nigeria without native igbo speakers?

IGBOSON1:


^^^These bigoted leeches are the very definition of the word shameless!

If they have so much faith in the cohesiveness and unity of their 'one Nigeria' why then are they fretting over Biafran calls for self-determination? Wouldn't a referendum decide one way or the other who wants to continue sharing the same country with Yoruba and Hausa/Fulani and who wants out? They're about to get shot of the very people they hate passionately so i don't understand all this keeping of vigil over Biafran issue!

That's the part I'm really trying to understand. I see this very strange coinage on NL every now and then - "igbo Rivers", and I begin to wonder who are the igbos in Rivers State. Last time I checked, there are no igbos in Rivers State. I seriously need to know this strange people because Ikwerre, Etche and Umuma are clearly not igbos as they are stand-alone tribal/ethnic groups. Even Bony where they speak Igbani and simplified/pure igbo languages are ijaw.

Yes I know this because I am a Rivers man and a son of Ikwerre land. On that note, I really need some educating on this "Igbo Rivers" people in Rivers State.

Just a side note: I am not against Biafra and in fact, I am a strong supporter of the UN doctrine on Self Determination, but forcefully dragging a State and/or its people into the Biafran struggle is what I find hard to comprehend let alone assimilate. IMHO It is in every ramification, the same master-slave perception Biafrans as a people are fighting against - it is an obtrusive imposition that should be carefully and promptly checked.

That is for you to read. Kindly have a sleepless night. It must have been the fault of the yorubas again.

Read the meaning of leeches in the post below, you stinking asshole bigot!

Mimee803:
This is d whole point! Nd d reason dis same quest for self determination failed b4! I wld love 2 see biafra created 2morow bt u cannot I repeat cannot drag Niger delta states or any oda state for dat mata with u it defeats d whole purpose of d struggle! The handlers of d biafra movement r insane if u ask me!y incite a war u r not ready for? Do u tink u fight wars wit mere words or sticks? Common pple read educate urselfs! D best way 2 win dis struggle is by simple diplomacy...nw it seems 2 me dat d igbo folk knw nothing about diplomacy if not dey wld be lobbying wit oda African countries and international organisations (take d struggle out der put d name Biafra on d lips of oda world leaders)nd eventually d Nigerian govt trust me ders merit in d claim for a new state a blind man can see dat! U can't win dis by a war trust me u simply can't stop wasting ur tym and stop creating unnecessary enemies 4 urslfs.

A true ikwerre should have known the tribal components of Rivers state and here you failed woefully. A true Ikwerre should have known about Ogba, Egbema, Ndoni and Obigbo. These are Igbos of RIVERS STATE.

On the other hand, NOT all Ikwerre deny being Igbo. Isaac Mahowu the Deputy President of Ohaneze Ndigbo is a proud igbo man and a lot others. Diobu is a historically well documented Igbo enclave of Aro ancestry. All Ikwerre and Etche deities are IGBO including the Ojukwu of Diobu. So, what the hell are you talkng? Go learn your history and geography. Na afoto onu! Nonsense!

Or better still, learn from your brother HopeAtHand. He misbehaves most of the time but will readily admit that Ikwerre "were once Igbo".
And that "Diobu is of Aro ancestry". With respect to the Okirikans, PH and Rivers state smacks of Igbo.

Stop talking rubbish and tagging me to it.

I dont have time for baseless argument, just provide the link.

We ibos re nothing but bandits nd petty thieves.... We re only scheming on our fixation of Niger delta resources... We create monikers to depict oda non ibo tribes to make seem as if dey re in support of our stupid charade... I know we deserve nothing but ur curse... We re already accursed... Yes we yigbos In alaibo

Armaggedon:


there is no need wasting your time. hopeathand has never been known to be ikwerre. Many ikwerre sons have on this forum suggested that his is an impostor. Even the idiot you are quoting is yoruba.

Most yorubas know that 75 percent of rivers state including ph is igboland but they find it difficult acknowledging it b'cos of igbophobia

ocelot2006:


Who said we Niger Deltans want Biafra? No thank you.

HopeAtHand:


Call your many Ikwerre sons out..That Anambra fool Ezepromoe can only deceive himself and not me.

Aside Oyigbo LGA and Egbema in Onelga, there is no Igbo whatever in Rivers state..you are just lying to yourself..because about 100 or less persons took to the streets to wail about the arrest of Nnamdi Kanu, you have decided you run PH..you Igbos have been noticed..

Our stand on the issue has been made clear, we regard Ipob as miscreants and any other protesters will be treated as such next time.
