Can anyone confirm that the native language of Opobo people is Igbo?
yes partially because we lost our language which is Ibani

Wao, this is highly Commendable. I was serving(NYSC) in Opobo when Wike came to do the Flag off. One statement I made then was, 'I hope it would not be abandoned'. I'm really happy for the people of Opobo. Movement to and fro then was a thug of war. You either use bike from Borí to Òpóbo Town then(1hr plus) at the price range from #1000 or you either go to Ikot Abassi in Akwa Ibom state then use speed boat from there to Opobo. I can not forget the experience in a hurry. Thank God for Preservation of life.
Truly you have been in OPOBO, this road is the road that leads to kalaibiama our small community and it's now like an express, you need to visit OPOBO again
Hope to visit the town someday, now that there's good road.

Is there now a bridge between Ogoni Land and Opobo/Nkoro?

The closest I got towards Opobo is just before Joseph Yobo(footballer's) and Sen. Magnus Abe's villages - Deeyor.

A big one, because there was no road to Opobo kingdom as it is surrounded by water.

I see most ppl making comments without knowing anything abt Rivers State apart from what dy read online. Is driving to Opobo a good thing? The ans is Yes. U knw why because d hazards involved in travelling by water will b no more. B4 once dere is rain, no way to go to opobo, both by water nd air, but nw ppl can drive. Wike has tried in rivers state nd its clear to every1 resident in d state. The only place i'll score him low is employment. Ciao

It wasn't wike that started it rather Peter Odili did in 2005, while I served 2006 Feb to 2007 Jan in Opobo kingdom, work was ongoing till I left, they had already connected inyoro to andoni by a constructing a link bridge, I didn't know whether Amechi continued with the work by doing a connecting bridge to kalaibiama to will lead to Opobo town

So Amaechi didn't go to Opobo kingdom

There was no road before into the town before I think.

Dakuku peterside who is from that area was commisioner of works under Ameachi but did notin.

Yes it is, do u know hw hazardous water transportation is? Especially using speed boats? The thing is now opobo has a road connection with od parts of rivers state, development will be fast tracked dia. The plights of most riverine communities in rivers state is d lack of roads connecting dem to d capital.
So yes Wike is to be commended.
