This is the central question. For quite a while now the ibo people have used every opportunity to harass the Ijaw, misinform members as to things pertaining to Ijaw, who are the people of Rivers state etc. I had thought it was just them being their normal lousy selves, but it turns out that they seem to have an agenda. As with all such ibo agendas it will fail. Look at the nonsense they have been posting here. Ibo's always fail. We, the Ijaws and the people of Rivers state have thrown you barbarians out and there is no coming back.

I know that you in particular feed through the anus, I would still warn you to desist from your idiocy.
I only pit the sane Ijaw because goats like you are speaking for them and building bad blood with your IMMEDIATE neighbors.
If you don't know what to say, you should shut up.

@My Igbo brothers,

This type of thread is why we Ndigbo wanted to organize ourselves here in Nairaland, to basically organize how we project ourselves and our priorities.
This thread is unnecessary and irrelevant because it changes nothing in Nigeria.
However, as we say in Igbo, Uche bu akpa, onye bula nya nke ya -common sense is like a bad, each individual carries his own around.

@Ijaw people here,

I would continue to caution you STRONGLY to cease and desist from your insults of Ndigbo. You cannot do anything to us in CURRENT Nigeria - trust me on that; but we can do A WHOLE LOT to you in Nigeria. You drew the first blood by stabbing us in the back during the civil war. We forgave you and have been trying to treat you like equals and humans.
Evil is very easy to copy. We Ndigbo can copy evil from elsewhere in Nigeria, and if we do, you will know that you cannot stand us in the art of brinkmanship.
Do not wake a sleeping lion.

Nuff said again.

Stabbing you in the back? By not allowing you to kill, rape and maim us? Anyway everybody knows you and your people for what you are.

Please spare me your semi-literate bable. Tell your people to stop the nonsense they are doing. We (my people and I) have enough to contend with, without having to spend valuable time fending off slobbering ibo people who are trying to once again take us over.

You are a coward because all your posts here reeks of insecurity. People from far away lands have killed, maimed and ra.ped you since you launched your stupid MEND.
They did more of it than your imagination can ever contend with, yet you are still looking behind your backs waiting for the time Igbo would do the same to you.
Little wonder why no one respects you across the two rivers in Nigeria -Niger and Benue. If not for we Igbo, you would have been wiped out by now.
Ewu.

BTW You have already been taken over. Get used to it. wink

Nna, Yoruba stab you in the back, Ijaw stab you in the back, Ibibio stab you in the back, Tiv stab you in the back..........but Hausaman stab you in the front and you refused to fight, instead you headed West spilling innocent blood and planting biafra flags.

@negro,

Believe me the stabbing in the back was done by people in SOUTHERN Nigeria. We Ndigbo fought with Northern Nigeria in a direct war, and they were supported by world powers.
Aboki know us very well. All you need to do is shout Nyamiri in Kano and watch as aboki's heart skips a bit.

Y'all down south are just irritants. Nothing more.
BTW stabbing us in the back will NEVER happen again in Nigeria. cool

Look at this blubbering 1diot. Everyone has been following this thread since it began including I. EVERYONE on NL including non-igbo have spokenon this thread and mention the fallacy on the whole ijaw 4th tribe position and the nonsense spreading of community all the way to states ijaw aren't found. You aint got mouth to talk sh1t to them like the coward you are. Unlike others, the Igbo's are the most Vocal because you and your likes are stretching your territory gripping all the way to Igbo group and claiming igbo community including those in SE as part of your community. One even went to extent to claiming an Igbo celebrity as one of your own and still maintain that ideology despite evidence giving to prove otherwise. Though granted they are also correcting other community groups in which some ijaws are claiming. Lay away from Igbo territories both in rivers and SE, groups and people and the whole ijaw are 4th in Nigeria and whatever else fallacy can spread. We all read this entire thread and we all see what the whole argument is all about.

If you do not have any intelligent thing to contribute then leave the f2king job to your brothers like killyaut and ijaw citizen that are obviously smarter than you to do the God damn job. It is not a must that every tom and jerry must talk

Yet the places you claim as Ijaw are not Ijaws. In Ahoada West, the group you called Ijaws are not Ijaws, they are Engenni. Engenni has never at anytime being Ijaws. Even at that there are more Ekpeyes (Igbo) than Engennis in Ahoada.

If you say Engennis are not Ijaws mean you do not know Ijaws. YENAGOA the Ijaw capital is an Epie ATTISA town . Epie Attisa are Engennis. Yenagoa, Mbiama,,Okordia, Okarki , Joinkrama, Oruma, Biseni and even to parts of Ogbia are all Engenni . They are all IJAWS.

ijaw citizen: If you take a critical look at the andonnis, abua-odua, degema and obolo people, you will find out that they are at the extreme boundaries of Ijawland and as such they have lost their language to their neighbours across the ijaw border for reasons such as trade and intermarriage. But they havent lost their culture and history which shows that they are Ijaw people. i hope you're getting educated. It doesnt matter how you assess the Ijaw population in Rivers, we're still the majority and ur analysis wont change anything so you better come to terms with reality and stop feeling comfortable with ur delusions & the lies you're spreading here. get a life dude!

You guys have been trying in vain to harm Ijaws and take their land. What Hausa have not done to you is what Ijaws would do to you when the time comes. WATCH IT. You Igbos brought this topic and started your sarcasm. Ijaws only responded to it and now you are getting mad. LEAVE IJAW ALONE.

Nuff said again.


Re: How Did Ijaw Become The 4th Largest Ethnic Group by aduboy(m): 6:56am On Sep 14, 2012
I can see from this thread that ijaw the smallest ethnic group in the south south geopolitical zone are now claiming the fourth largest in Nigeria. Wonders shall never end. So ijaw now has more population than edo, effik, ibibio, urohbo,itsekiri,ikwere, ogoni etc. Is it because GEJ is the president ? These people should shut their small mouth because they are still minority in the south south talk less of Nigeria. Gaskiya

I laugh in ijaw language. Ant challenging elephant. I wonder what ijaws would do to Ndigbo when they couldn't stand the urohbos and itsekiris. Bunch of ogogoro drunkards. Infact talk is cheap.

Actually I am about to start a thread that would question Igbo support for you to continue to enjoy offshore oil money (which is what gives most of you the stomach to vomit crap on this site). IMHO, unless there is something I don't see (and I hardly miss anything) I don't see what Ndigbo gains by supporting that policy.

@My Igbo brothers,

Please join me in examining the onshore/offshore dichotomy, and let us tell ourselves some home truths.
Is that policy good for us in any way?
Let's be honest to ourselves.
I'll start the thread.
