Itsekiri is more than Delta Ijaw, can you provide links to population figures, does itsekiri have a single house of rep member or senator. Why can't your population give you a single house of rep member? Be deceiving your afonja soul
You are a complete baboon if you think politics in Delta Nigeria is a game of numbers. Listen carefully, there's something call rotation and divide and rule. A counter question would be, why can't the Ijaw population give them a governor in Delta State? Because it just can't work, we all know the Ijaws and their selfish and devilish interest. The only thing Ijaws seem to be better than Itsekiri is "population" in Nigeria. But in Delta, Itsekiris are more than them. The president of NFF is still Amaju. If not for Tompolo (the rogue) there's no known Ijaw man in Delta. It doesn't make sense that the owners of lands don't have a single prominent person...hahaha. Ijaws are below all tribes in Delta. Ijaws are dragging us back honestly.

Go school, you no gree go. So because Bayelsan Ijaws didn't give Jonathan up to 500K votes, then they must be less than 1million?

Going by your logic, Yorubas are less than 10 million because less than 5 million people voted in the election.

Yoruba people logic. You people are not as smart as we used to think. Thanks to Nairaland.
You're just being plain mischievous. Go to Obasanjo's election and tell me the Yorubas who came to vote were just 5 mil when Delta as a state is producing 1.5 mil in votes. Then, come back to GEJ presidential election, even if we are being generous and say multiply 500k by 4 to give 2 mil in Bayelsa, it still doesn't add up to 14 million (or 20 million owing to exponential growth) Ijaws in Nigeria. The figures are so inflated, so please, shut up and bow your head in shame.

It will be in your best interest to avoid the Ijaws, ask yoyr fathers to tell you the stories of warri crises when itsekiri men started writing Igbo mans house on their properties. You are all Yoruba people and you will bw sent back to your kith and kin in the west, you claim to be from niger delta but speak Yoruba language who are deceiving
I find this statement very stupid to say the least. Is Niger delta homogenous. Is it not just a region ? Why can't yorubas be found there ? And yes we have opc in delta state. Kill yourself

Aboki made a statement; ijaws started threatening the itsekiris. How stupid are these people really.

Are you sure you can comprehend or sensible at all?
First, you or your brother said since Bayelsans voters gave GEJ less than 500k votes, then Ijaws must be less than 1 million. Only an illiterate can make this assertion.
Now, through the bolden you are authoritatively saying voting population of an area is 25% of its entire population. So going by this silly assumption, the Yorubas are less than 20 million since about 4.5 million voted in the last election, if I generously multiply 4.5 by 4.

There is just no difference between some yorubas and the SW media. I used to think you guys are sensible but not again

I think Ijaw is not a homogenous ethnicity.. I lernt there are even few groups that speak Edoid languages, and some speak languages similar to the Efik-Ibibio

This is true. A well known example are the Apois of Ondo who speak a Yoruba dialect after migrating to their present location and assimilating with the natives. They claim that they migrated to their original location from the original Apoi clan in Central Bayelsa. This is no surprise because Ijaws are opportunistic explorers/seekers who were historically involved in maritime activities. They even made their ways into the cranies of Ijebu creeks. There was even a relationship involving transfer of ideas between Ijebus and Ijaws that goes back before colonial times.

Oga, you are just being stupid. Your Ijaw mentality can't work on us. Even if we say only 10% of Bayelsa population came to vote then the total population in Bayelsa will be 5 mil which is impossible. For a small LGA like Bayelsa (only 7 LGA and water-logged area) the population can't be up to 5 mil.... Mr man, keep quiet. Don't display your foolishness on NL

You be complete idiot. Ogiso is 100% bini word. Meaning king or ruler of the sky. Early Benin kings were called ogiso. During the time of Eweka the great the title of Oba was adopted. The last Ogiso was the father of Oduduwa.
Ogie means king/ruler
Iso means sky.
Show me a dictionary of bini language having those words, you guys have been using Ijaw words as title since the beginning of your people and you dont know your master

These tribe were living peacefully before this holo block president Buhari is trying to cause tribal war. I remember the Ijaws almos eliminated the Itskiris duing the first tribal war between them now this Huasa is about starting another round. This government is always devisive. From history, the Ijaws are known to be forth largest ethnic group. Am wondering a very tiny tribe like the Itsekiris who are only occupying some part of Warri are making noise. I don look for trouble for telling the truth. But Itsekiri get governors self? Are they even in Senate? Them dey minster position? You can only find them as local government area chairman only in Warri city.

You're a stark illiterate.

At the emboldened, which history said Ijos are the fourth largest ethnic group in Nigeria?

We respect boundaries. IN 2013 they tried their usual noise making with us in Ondo and they knew were it ended.

They were warned severally before we struck. They did the same thing at Ajegunle until we put them in their place forever. I am sure the story is a folklore among their Ajegunle residents and they can NEVER try their effrontery there again

Which Ajegunle? The one is Lagos? Do they have a village there?

Like I opined in the other thread, the 15 million Ijaw people shall never be broken by malicious acts from some envious and wicked elements that are within and outside the Niger Delta and Southsouth region.

The fact remains that Ijaw population that are indegenous in Rivers, Bayelsa, Akwa Ibom, Delta, Ondo and Edo states (the so-called Oba of Benin can go to hell if he insist on not embracing the reality), remains the undisputed 4th largest ethnic group in Nigeria and 10% of the entire country.

You're right, but its not only the igbos that came from Congo. Almost all the tribes in west Africa , and beyond did. That's why we're referred to as the Niger-Congo group. Linguistics has shown Igbo and Yoruba are variations of same language together with Igala. Our separation into different tribes took place around the Niger confluence, from where Igbo migrated through Benue and cross into SE area. First Ile Ife was located close to the Niger river, it was destroyed by flood and they migrated to the present day Ile Ife. The people who later became Binis journeyed through this same point of separation ( whether on their way from Egypt as claimed by some or they came from Nupe, a corruption of the word Nyuife in the language of the inhabitants till date, meaning Ile Ife ,according to Jacob Egarevba). So, all these tribes are the same people. Itsekiri is much more Yoruba than Bini; even Ijaws have versions of their history that places Ife as their origin. Forget the different names, we only enjoy being different but in reality, we're the same.

we are the same.am not sure about your all are from the congo area though.but i will not argue with you about that.

you bother to read.thats already enough for me.

cheers.

You are another lost sheep, you as an Ijaw tout is posing as an Igbo man (SouthEast). It is not that you can't comprehend but also, you don't know mathematics. I mean 10% of 5 mil = 500k Ijaw votes. This puts total (100%) of Bayelsa at 5 mil. Yes, it relates to the fact that the Ijaws are trying to blend their imagination with reality. We as citizens of the Delta will not stand idly by as illiterates rewrite history for us.
