bigfrancis21: You didn't make any point in all your hatefilled epistle. 1. You broke NL rules with regards to user's privacy and as a mod, I'm quite surprised about this. 2. Baby124 DERAILED this thread, not me, by making much ado about NOTHING as if Urhobos in SW have ever claimed to be indigenes. 3. From all you've quoted, which are irrelevant if I must add, I've maintained the phrase "village settlement". I said Urhobos have village settlements in the SW. Not one, but two Yorubas have come to confirm this and even explain more but you, an Igbo known to forcefully claim people's lands and speak for Itsekiris, Ijaw and Isokos as if they are Igbos too, took the matter out of context to prove a point that is more associated with Igbo than any tribe in Nigeria. For a mod, this is the height of tribalism and stupidity, I must confess. 4. You LIED against me that I said Aniomas are not Igbo. I asked for proof and you quoted a group that I have no idea of. You failed to even make any case to show that I said Aniomas are not Igbo. Imagine a nairaland moderator lying over users to prove his Igbo imperialist point. 5. I put it to you again that Urhobos have farming village settlements in the SOUTH WEST. I have proven my case here. it now behoves you to prove that they don't exist as you guys frequently prove that you own and developed Lagos! 6. I never said only Urhobos have farming villages in lands other than theirs. Even Hausas have their own settlements in Urhoboland, like any other group can have as well. So why are you making it seem like an Urhobo exclusive affair? Can't you see that your hate is uncontainable anymore? 7. Can't you see how petty you have descended? From "big" to "small", just because of Urhobo hatred! Your pains have only just begun. Expect more Urhobo threads on Nairaland! You will soon commit suicide. Igbo kwenu! 3 Likes |

YonkijiSappo: I appreciate your contribution and thanks for helping me clarify things. When I used that phrase village settlements, it was never to wholly imply "village" in the Nigerian sense but more like a settlement that has all the features of a village and since its for Urhobos, it is understandable. Baby124 was trying so hard to be ignorant. In fact, he/she tried too hard and gave off a non-Yoruba version of crass ignorance and tribalism. Thanks for clearing the air! 3 Likes |

Sanchez01: Truth be told, Ijaws (the Western Ijaws to be precise) used to be an integral part of the Western region before the creation of the Midwest, and the even more subsequent merging of some sections of the Mid-Western region to the old rivers state. Two local governments in today's Bayelsa: Ekeremor and Sagbama used to be part of the Western region, and I can also remember a very popular pic of Awolowo in Bomadi local government of Delta state among school children then to inculcate them into the Awo free educational system. So yes, a good part of the Ijaws were ONCE in the Western region together with the same Yorubas that they are now making it seem like they can't see eye to eye with. But it is no Big deal, because truth be told, it is even in our own better interests to avoid the Ijaws. The Igbos can have them in Biafra... lol. However if by South-South, the Ijaws are referring to ANY Land in Ondo state, they should completely forget it. Even Warri is still in contention, and traditionally only the local governments of Burutu, Bomadi and Patani are seen as true Ijaw local governments in Delta state. |

tuzeal: Oniovo abeg free that bigfrancis21 abi Wetin he call himself. He can only sit in Aba and concoct all sorts of rubbish to suit his Igbo imperialist interests. The moment he started speaking for Isoko and Itsekiri, I knew he was done for. That was it! He descended into hate and couldn't hide it again. Just because I cautioned them against speaking for Urhobos, he wants to be pretty and caution me against speaking for Isoko as if we are not one people or as if I called Isokos Urhobos! I don tell am say na suicide he go commit soon! Urhobo and Isoko matter go soon purge am. Meanwhile, nice to know you are from Olomoro. I read that Olomoros migrated from Olomu, in Urhoboland. You can see how we are all intertwined. I know Opharhe too. He used to create threads on Urhobo/Isoko before now. It's been a while he came online though. I'll even call him later. |

Afam4eva: Correct me if I am wrong but I believe the phrase I used was "Village settlements" and I took pains to explain it, covering several pages of this thread, even when the person I directed my clarifications to wasn't at all ready to understand where I was coming from but only wanted to defend territory as if it was ever in contention. Then your cohort, Bigfrancis21 took it upon himself to deconstruct what he knows nothing of whatsoever even when Yorubas have come and taken time to clear the air on the issue. What's his direction exactly, if not hate? Since when did Igbos start following Yorubas to defend territory on nairaland? Is it because a minority is now involved so he feels he can combine forces with Baby124 to oppress us from our legitimately gotten farming village settlements? Settlements that were setup on mutual understanding with the aborigines of the area? Settlements that are even being abandoned slowly? So help me ask him what his direction is on this thread! |

Afriifa:I'd like to believe they are confused and would stand against anyone and anything, just as they would stand for someone or something without thinking twice. This does not truly represent the larger Igbo group, don't be deceived. Those who exhibit that tendencies are the shallow ones you see on here. They are loyal to no one, not even themselves. According to them, their enemy is someone who does not share their ideals or beliefs. @the emboldened, their ass licking tendencies are second to none. We don't call them foot soldiers for nothing. 2 Likes |

Sanchez01:I prefer my Niger Delta the way it is. Why? You can't possibly differentiate who is who when you see an Uhrobo guy, Isoko guy, Ijaw, Ishekiri. Let me say even an Edo guy. Without if you are a stranger there. Unlike when you see an Ibo man one glance you will know this is an igbo, man because they all have one thing in common. Hope you know that too. |

Sanchez01: You are more reasonable to discuss with and you understand the bone of contention better which the OP himself has miserably failed to understand why we are even at this point in the first place. Let me re-iterate that no one ever said there are no settlements of Urhobos in the SW or anywhere in Nigeria. It would not be a surprise to anyone in the first place because people from ethnic groups travel out to other parts of Nigeria to settle or live in. The point being made here was the use of 'village' to refer to these Urhobo settlements located out of their ancestral zones. For example, if I were to tell you or any average Joe on the streets of Lagos that Hausas have their own village in Enugu? The other person would be perplexed because a Hausa village in Enugu is nearly impractical. It is his choice of words that brought this to this extent, he even went as far as insisting they were 'villages' and provided dictionary meanings to score his cheap point. Anyway, I am out of here. I believe the points have been made, it is left to him to see through objectively or subjectively instead. 1 Like |

bigfrancis21: So you settled on "Village" and left the "settlement" part of it? Isn't that selective reading? To what end entirely? If I say Igbos own Enugu and someone else says Igbos own lands in Enugu. Do the sentences mean the same thing? Stop trying to save your face and acknowledge that you were being anti-Urhobo, petty, clannish and Igbocentric on this thread. You came in with a clear motive, one which you tried to carry out unsuccessfully! |

@frathermathy, do your best to defend your position void of emotion, it will help your argument and possibly course you to victory. Besides, you assertion that 80% Igbos hate Uhrobor is false. If I may ask, where did you get that statistic from? Are you trying to stoke an ember of ethnic hatred where none exists? I have never heard of Igbo/Urobhor clash before, ever since my existence on this planet. So please do guide your comments with caution..... Furthermore, I hope you know that Biafra is more a political issue than a ethnic problem. If Biafra comes tommorow, and your group happened to remain in where ever they choose to, base on their right to association, does it eliminate peaceful co-existence? The answer is likely no. We can be of different countries and still live in peace. Its high time you watch how put up your defense to stop sounding like you are very desperate to win an argument. However, I'm impressed with the entire article, after going through it for the second time. 3 Likes |
