I know majority of Idoma people are Christians. There are also a sizable number of Muslims, especially in agatu area.

Idoma is Hausa.

Their local governments and the dominant religion there

Agatu don't have much of Muslim, let's say Muslim there is roughly 17-18% of total population

All of them are Muslims and are north... simple

Igala people: 75% Muslims, others 25%
Ebira people: 90% Muslims, others 10%
Kabba Okun people: 85% Christians, others 15%

Yes

OK. pls what is the general Idoma attitude towards Biafra?

I ask ' cos of the my encounter in PH. Someone brought up the idea of inclusion of Idoma and igala in the proposed Biafra, expressing his disapproval over it. Another man even called Idoma Hausa muslims. someone at our back who I later learnt was an idoma nearly fought the man who called them Hausa's. He said except for some in agatu, overwhelming majority of Idomas are Christian and Pro Biafra.

I wouldn't want a country where a section however small will harbour any sort of resentment towards the majority. That's why I need an idoma person to explain things.

I can comfortably say, Idoma are not and will never be Hausa Muslim. Idomas are not Hausa/Fulani as they are fondly called, even the 17% I said earlier is a mistake cuz I asked and they said Idomas that are Muslims are not more than 5%. They welcome Biafra, if not for anything, for the fact that they have been marginalised by the TIV speaking region of the state.

I am not sure this is correct. I served in Amkpa, Kogi State. The indigenes themselves told me they are about 50/50 moslems/Christians. And this agrees with my observation while I was there.

Christians are more than Muslims in Nigeria including northern Nigeria but they will never let you know.

Few families are Muslims in agatu. There are 3% idoma Muslims. Mostly positioned in federal civil service to claim fake population like the rest of the north by fulanis supremacists

Ankpa is just one local government in eleven local government in igala land.

In Kogi state....

Muslims 45% population but politically 70% dominance

Christians 52% population but politically 25% dominance

This has been the reason census data that includes religion demography is hotly resisted by Hausafulani Muslims of the north. Because they prefer situation where figures are asserted based on political prominence of any ethnic groups of their making

Igala issue is quite puzzling. I don't know how IPOB intends going about it. I suggest we abandon the idea of including them as well as urhobo and itshekiri. about half are Muslims. you can't possibility partition them. No one wants a 'Kashmir' in Biafra.

Sorry sir,there more muslims in kogi than xtians.its n9t possible to have a lesser population and still dominate politically

It ridiculous to include igala and idoma in to the proposed biafra.

that is not truth, igala 60% christian 40% others. Ebira 85% Muslim 15% others. Okun 85% christian 15% others. My statistics can be confirm.

Close.
Igbirras 60% muslims.
Okuns. 90% Christians
Igalas. 52% Christians

Fact

OneNigerianist:
Idoma is Hausa.

.

That's a lie. Idomas are Igbos. Oche is Uche. Ada is common to them.

AnalQueenluci:


the amount of islam u find in igboland is dsame amount u find in Idoma ie 5% ,

You mean 0.005% ?

Whether idomas are Muslims shouldn't be of much concern to you. What should be of more concern to you is the type of Islam they practice.

The core northerners see them as infidels because they are not radical.

Haven said that.....

I know this entity called nigeria will split up into smaller entities one day. It might take long, but it will surely happen. I'm from middle belt and I very much support Biafra but only on the condition that they carry all middle belt states (Nasarawa, Plateau and Benue ) along. If this is not happening, then I call for more disintegration. Surprisingly, these three states are where most of the food we eat come from but they are some of the less developed and the poorest states in this entity, thanks to the useless set up.

However you want to deny it, the core northerners have drawn this country backward by fifty years, sharing the same country with them amounts to permanent stagnation in life.

#MiddlebeltIsNotNorth

Idoma and Igbo are almost one. A colleague I served with in the north was from the area. He could hear Igbo very well and when spoke on the phone, you would know he was speaking a language that is almost Igbo which needs a little "adjustment" to understand. Ironically Hausas called him Igbo. That was when I stopped calling him a northerner. Our people seem to forget them only because they are called North. There is a lot of make believe in Nigeria. This country is so fake.
