itchie: What's this one saying? Ese odo is Ijaw land ba? Does Ese Odo sound Ijaw to your brain? So because Ilaje people offered lands to the Ijaws who were constantly found sleeping at the river bank after their fishing makes it Ijaw land? In fact, Ese odo is a yoruba word depicting how Ijaws were found at the river banks (Ese odo - River banks) If you know nothing you had better keep shut!! And so you know, Anioma people migrated to the land in Delta and they are of different ethnic stocks which include the Yoruba in ugbodu, isoko/bini/Urhobo as Ukwuani, the Bini/Ibo as ika and the ibo as Oshimil/Aniocha.. You can't just carve out people land just because you migrated over there. Get that sunk into your brain! If you believe you're of ibo ethnic stock and wants biafra, then get your ass off Delta land and move to the SE, the same way the arogbo Ijaw will be advised to get off our land and join their brother in Bayelsa if they loves them so much. 2 Likes |

cumbak60: I'm just telling you the truth! If you're looking for Ibo land, look no far from those that were carved into River state! Stop claiming peoples' land just because your folks migrated over there.. We have Yoruba in Ugbodu in Delta state yet no Yoruba is claiming the land is ours because we know our people migrated to the place. |

Clark's behavior during and immediately after GEJ makes one want to vomit. He locked GEJ at Aso Rock, pocket the keys himself, and was the first to join forces with Buhari and APC to say how bad GEJ really was. If there're honest Ijaws out there, no the likes of one barcanista we have here, they should have really taken him out of political circulation a long time ago. He is as bad as the people he leads! 8 Likes |

naijaking1: Why do you have to make the highlighted statement? Have you conducted a survey of Ijaw people and concluded that they are all bad? If you want to criticize the old fool, you can do that by following the author's example without insulting the people he purports to lead (most of whom you've not even met in real life). And by the way who even appointed him the leader of Ijaws? P.s And by the way I have met many very honest Ijaws. 4 Likes |

A fool at forty is fool forever. Edwin Clark is a complete old fool. It is funny to watch Edwin Clark cried about Oil block allocation being disproportionately dominated by the elites from northern region of Nigeria. I wondered what the fool thought he was doing when serving as houseboy for Gowon and political elites from the northern region of Nigeria. The jackass such as Edwin Clark is one of the reasons elites from the northern region assume err of importance. 8 Likes |

cumbak60: You are 100% right. The loss of the ekwumekwu war after 30 years of fighting the British was the first Balkanization of the igbos. The one that happened after the uncivil war was even worse. And it was done by fellow Africans with evil devilish hearts 8 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Response To Pa Edwin Clark On Rivers State, Delta State And by Sanchez01: 8:11am On Jul 21, 2017 |
cumbak60:I could remember stating exactly the post you quoted last night, and this has nothing to do with playing dirty. The said Igboid groups in other lands other than the five Eastern States are migrants who were only accommodated, save for the part of Rivers that was carved from the original land of the Igbos. The same applies to the Ijaws too and they are very much conscious of this fact. However, that is not to say that they have not become a part and parcel of the said places. Where the problem would always be is in the misplaced use of the word 'Indigenous'. I believe you know what I mean here. Amaechi, Odilli and co, Including Sunday Oliseh who denied being Igbos are indeed Igbos. Again, it still does not eliminate the facts that the present day places belong to non Igboid groups who accommodated their hosts. Ijaws have weird longings for water, same as the Urhobos, and would not waste a moment in laying claims to where they are clustered. As the case of Biafra today, should it pull through, Igboid groups outside of the five Eastern States would not be carved out because that is where the real drama would begin. Stories of how a family trekked from a particular place down to their presently dwellings would be dug. Edo presently has its land in the East (Onitsha), and while the scenario does not necessarily apply to the discourse at hand. Igboid groups in Rivers believe they share no semblance with Igboid groups in the SE and do not let a second pass by before they deny their roots. The same apply to some people in Delta State. I just found out recently that there is clan in Bayelsa, the Ofonis, they speak the Ughelli dialect and bear typical Urhobo names, but cannot be said to be original owners of the land they live in because history has it that they migrated to the plaace they presently live. If eventually it happens that, God forbid, every people is forced to reckon with their root, the Ofonis might leave empty handed, rather than dream of carving a territory which was never theirs. The same might likely play out with Igboid groups outside of the East. Sad scenario but true. |

Eastfield1:What Kagawa10 said is true. Ese odo literally means the 'river foot', transcribed as the 'River bank'. Ijaws are good at settling pretty fast in an area and would not even let a moment pass before the settlement become theirs. It is no branier as to why you have Ijaws in Yoruba lands who are claiming that they are indigenous in those lands, even though it is funny. |
Re: Response To Pa Edwin Clark On Rivers State, Delta State And by nonaira: 9:00am On Jul 21, 2017 |
itchie: That's the hypocrisy of Nigeria. You know I've been denounced Deltan on this forum more times i can count because I support biafra and proud of my igbo identity. Heck I've even witness miscreants claiming the land we hail from does not being to us and we should migrate to "SE where we came from. " Interesting that this people want to stretch theor hand all over. The yoruba wants to identify the yoruba in Kiara as yoruba rather than Kwara, the ijaws wants to drag everyone as Ijaws including people that aren't even ijaws but yet they want to dictate to anioma and rivers igbo what ethnicity we should identify with as it does not fit in well with their hatred. I'm a proud igbo from delta and if anyone hates me or any Deltan igbo identifying as igbo, please do us a favour and just end your life out the frustration okay. 12 Likes 3 Shares |

Sanchez01: There's nothing he said in that entire post that is true. He has already been schooled repeatedly on the ignorance he stated and yet the illiterate still screech whatever nonsense that comes to his head. I don't care about Ondo or whatever as I can careless. The ijaws are more than equipped to address una on that. 3 Likes |

nonaira:Oh, so the Ijaws are expected to come and save you in a discourse that had nothing to do with them from the outset? I have no interest in sowing seeds of discord but the truth must be pronounced. I grew up in a complex environment with the Ijaws and the Ilajes being the dominant groups therein. I recall how the Ijaws came into the area at the time, way back as far as 1990. Today, they claim they own the place and have been there from time immemorial. Interestingly, the said place is Mile 12, Lagos, specifically the river edge within Omobanta. There are no indigenous Ijaws in Ondo, just as there are no indigenous Igbos in Delta, the same way there are no indigenous Urhobos in Bayelsa. The same applies to the Yorubas. It is one thing your land was claimed or cut off, just as the case is with a part of Rivers which naturally belongs to the Igbos, and it is another to claim you are indigenous to a land when history clearly beams its spotlight on how your people got there. 2 Likes |
