wink2015:


what are the 5 states of the Niger delta region the Igbos can be found?

If you don't know them already then you're not informed. They're Delta, Edo, Rivers, Cross River, Akwa Ibom and I even heard Bayelsa too (though unconfirmed yet).

I beg, how many million is akwa Ibom as a whole?
About 6 to 7 million.
With twice as many citizens living outside the state.

Meanwhile some idiots will be busy limiting Igbo to only 5 southeast states or whatever rubbish they call that. Thank God for events like this. Thank God that after 50years, this people have not been confused to deny their being Igbo like some of the illiterates in Delta, Rivers et all.

Arochukwu, Ikwuano, Umuahia and Aba even extending up to Ngwa land are all Akwa ibom territories and we the Ibibios will soon get our land back from you.
Those lands igbos claimed from us during the Aro/Ibibio war.
Don't argue please

Lolz
U really cracked my limps
U must be a joker

What concern aro/ibibio war with umuahia and ikwuano
Ibibios can only be found in Abia as small small village under some wards in Obingwa, ikwuano, (not umuahia at all)
And for arochukwu read your history well
Cos the last time I checked
It's called Aro oke Igbo (hope you know what that means) the created many towns in south east (even in Rivers State) and the sees them selves as the original Igbos more than any other, so just because the ruled and created part of ibibio then, and a little rural settlement falls under present day Arochukwu l.G.A doesn't make them Ibibios (people the ruled)
(Infact don't let an Aro man catch you saying this)
They are Arochukwu not Aroabasi (the name alone self)
As for umuahia, umuahia has no connection with ibibio
Always say what you know
Or Google search, b4 posting

Don't be foolish.akwaibom was created in 1991 or so now, do you want to tell me that those Igbos who through State creation found themselves in Akwaibom will cease to be Igbos simply because they are now akwaibomites not minding that there's every possibility of another state creation tomorrow which may see them becoming a different state from Akwaibom. That you are in a particular State does not change who you are neither does it change your ancestry.
You started very foolish my friend calling me foolish but after reading your short piece I realized how wise you could be if you do without starting your response with insult.
I am not against being IBO or not.. My own stance is
1. Anywhere you have been craft to belong during state creation honour it with good faith and contribute to the development of such faith.
2. See yourself as part of that state.
3. Don't let us be digging up ethnical issues... You like it or not, IBO will be IBO , Hausa will be Hausa etc We are so used to it in this part of the world, let's take for instance if in an Hausa community an Hausa man discover something that will benefit the society, that's when we realise that he is an Hausa man and not from the state bla bla bla..
Sha I salute you.

They are NOT Officially part of Benue state.

And are not indigenous to Benue, they are encroachers who ended up in the part of Benue that belongs to the Idomas'

Please what is so important in that Fulani ravaged good for nothing state of Benue that we the Igbos will be praying to have?
then why are you celebrating over some grow of people who just decide to call themselves Igbo

God bless benue state

I never said anyone want to take Benue, nobody can dare, ask the Fulani terrorist called Usman Dan fodio who tried in vain.


I said everyone want Benue.


As for where I came from, where else do you think?

What is benue? A creation of someone else. Pls take away that ignorance from here.

Benue is made up of IGBOS, Tiv, Idoma, etc. Igbos dont give a damn about other tribes in benue, we are simply interested in our igbo brothers there. Benue is useless to us, poses no advantage

They are not Igbos. Their language is so different and they bear Benin names. E.g Osagie etc

Their language is IGBO and they bear IGBO names. That u met any of them that has a bini name does not in anyway mean they have stopped being igbo

nwanne some arguements are grossly unneccesary. The fact remains that there are intermixture of igbos and akwa-cross people in boundary locations in Abia, akwa ibom and C/R

Dont argue this futher biko

Quit dreaming. Igbos once inhabited Idah, before some migrants from Wukari displaced them. The past is gone, and time has changed. You cannot claim anything since you don't have any deed to the land.

I believe many of you are not so bright. You said Igbo wants to claim a place and people called "Obigbo" (which interprets as "The heart/Soul of Igbo"wink

Please, read this again and then examine your brain.

We already have Igbos in some part of Benue as this post is concerned, so what is the big deal? Oga if you don't know God is actually punishing that state.

U are being stupid unnecessarily, focus on facts of the discussion and stop dragging in civil war I to this matter.

IGBOS carved into benue from Enugu and Ebonyi is all we are interested in, we dont care about What Tiv and Idoma does with their lives, we bloody dont care.

why do you people always bring this Biafra war into conversation whenever Igbo matter is been discussed? i am an Igbo person but i don't have time for Kanu and Biafra agenda but this type of words can make many other Igbos to support KANU

you think you can scare Igbos with Biafra war? you must be very stupid, i do not reside in Nigeria, let me tell you if there's war against Igbos today i will be in Nigeria to fight, my best friends are yorubas , stop using that word ... do you know what happened during biafra war

there are minute populations of igbos in akwa ibom and C/R states. Similarly their is a minute population of akwaibomites and C/riverians in abia state especially in the boundary areas

Cc:ariesbull

There are no akwaibom tribe in Abia state. Unless you are speaking of the one village called Item mba uzo who have fully assimilated as Igbos eons ago and speak Igbo as mother tongue now.

Look at you, you told me how Benue is not important and now you are swimming in pain when confronted with a painful truth.



Next time do a research before posing a question.

You should have read your brother's outburst before joining the fight like Aboki people.




Your brother insulted the entire Benue land of which to me is unforgivable.
