Nigerdelta : A Republic On The Crossroads by EternalTruths: 4:14pm On Oct 31, 2015 |
Self-determination is the right of all ethnic groups on earth. Therefore only the unlearn will deny a people their right Niger Delta is made up of 4 main groups with 4 different value systems Notably the Mnonos Ijoids Edoids and Igboids groups One fact most proponent of Nigerdelta failed to take into considerations is the fact that what unites a country is their value system The Mnonos and Igboids groups can easily form Biafra because of years of intermarriage which leaves the Ijoids groups and Edoids groups as the only people who can form ND republic A closer study of the Ijaws and Edos shows that both are likely not to share the same country as the issue of superiority contest will collapse the republic if one side refuses to bow to the other. The only way these 4 distinct groups can coexist, is by creating a Niger Delta republic with weak centre in order to allay the fear of domination by any party. 2 Likes 1 Share |

The only way these 4 distinct groups can coexist, is by creating a Niger Delta republic with weak centre in order to allay the fear of domination by any party. History tells us the Mid-west state of the 60s and 70s survived without much rancour. If our parents could live in the old mid-west without one tribe dominating the others, am sure we can live peacefully now if we had our independence. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

The SS is made up of 4 different groups viz Igboid(RS,AKS,Edo,Anioma,CRS) Cross River/Mmoñoid(AKS,CRS,RS) Ijoid(Delta,RS,Bayelsa) Edoid(Edo, Delta) These groups had regional centers and the only true affiliation Igboids have there are the Mmoño or Cross river group of languages. 1 Like |

United State of Biafra is the Best for SS/SE with resource control. Every state will manage it resources and pay tax to the central government. To avoid domination from Igbos, there will be a rotating presidency across the regions and coalition government will be in place. Each state will have autonomy and the Central government will be weak. No state will be dependent on another state for its survival. SS/SE forming United State of Biafra will make them to become the strongest country in Africa in terms of manpower development, economy, military and market. |

I liked your comment and also shared it but the Niger Delta has no clear major ethnic group. The Niger Delta can have their own republic with a strong militarily center but a weak structural center thereby giving all the powers to the autonomous groups involved but on a second look at the regions that makes up the Niger Delta you can't deny the fact that they share a lot in common and sometimes can pass as one. The Niger Delta isn't on any crossroad unless if some neighbors begins to lay claim to her territory which won't be a walk in the park anyway. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Truckpusher: There is nothing like Niger Delta Republic and there is nothing like Biafra. There is One Nigeria which will remain until at least the last cup of oyel is drained from the ravaged ancestral lands of the Niger Delta. We need our monthly allocations and any attempt by any group or tribe to solely lay claim to the oyel which nature has given to all Nigerians will be met with very destructive force. The man in Sokoto has the same right to our oyel like the ogogoro drinking man of the so called Niger Delta. The oyel belongs to all of us. Kudos to the North for always stating this fact. 1 Like |

Truckpusher: I just told you the truth, deal with it. The Niger Delta or ss whatever you like to call it is the bride of the nation according to Setaje and will continue to be fvcked by different dicks around the country because monthly allocations cannot stop oo, ee dey sweet. You better warn any group that will try to claim our oyel because the economy is not easy now oo. The whole Niger Delta can be wiped out to keep our monthly allocations coming. There is nothing like Niger Delta Republic and there is nothing like Biafra. It is One Nigeria for all. Lol 2 Likes |

When you hear them shouting at Igbos to leave their oyel you would think that nobody is touchinng the oyel but Nigeria especially the north has ravaged their ancestral lands and taking the same oyel from under their noses. If this is not dumbness I wonder what is. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Nigerdelta is another name for Ijaw republic. The first Niger delta republic was an Ijaw only one: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaac_Adaka_Boro The second one is likely to be the same: http://africanheraldexpress.com/blog8/2013/10/04/niger-delta-as-ijaw-colony-a-word-of-caution/ http://www.nigeriannewspapers.today/crack-in-niger-delta-over-alleged-favouritism-of-ijaws-by-jonathan/ 3 Likes 2 Shares |

vicenzo:The actions of Adaka boro proves the Ijaw nation respects & honour the other ethnic groups in ND yet the igbos are claiming we want to dominate them, these same igbos would now tell you that we all should be in a stinking biafra with them. if the claims of ijaw domination by igbos were true, do they even think that ND being in biafra could prevent us from actualizing this so called phantom domination? ND republic struggle of today has been embraced by all the ethnic groups, that is why the igbos are scared now that the ijaw domination line is on longer selling, in frustration they are now shouting THERE IS NOTHING LIKE ND, citing very dumb reasons!
