One thing that make most so called Niger Delta foolish is the fact that because of crude oil and the deceitful chants they get from their confirmed enemies in the person of Yorubas and the North, they are always quick to say they are not Igbos but whenever crises erupts in the North, Hausa-Fulanis tag them Igbo and kill them along with Igbos.


And Igbos always pay the price of Niger Delta atrocity since 1966. Major Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu a young military officer from this same Okpanam in today Delta State organized a coup and killed many northern leaders, Igbos didn't deny him or say he is Delta Igbo or Niger Delta, Igbos stood by him and got killed in thousands in the northern pogrom because of Nzeogwu's atrocity of 1966 coup which also led to Biafra-Nigeria 3yr bloody civil war, Igbos never deserted Nzeogwu, but some so called Niger Delta people who think they are wise refused to join Igbos to fight the evil they created when the war broke out, instead they aligned with their confirmed hater and enemies from Yoruba to Hausa-Fulanis, it is well.




I don't know we Igbos just love taking bullets for others, honestly I don't know why, it seems to be in our DNA....look at how Igbos have been defending and fighting for Goodluck Jonathan since 2015, even Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala but Yorubas will come online to tell Niger Delta people that Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala is not Igbo but Niger Delta but they are the same people that have been screaming for Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala's head to be cut off it not for Igbos standing for her and Goodluck.




My anger is not with Yorubas or Hausa-Fulanis but with Niger Delta people who allow themselves to do received by their true enemies angry
Bros I feel your pain. I am Ikwerre and I vehemently oppose the notion that I am Igbo. My grandmother was an Igbo lady from Umuahia. When she was alive I tried to ask her if Ikwerre was Igbo with her experience and knowledge going by her age. She categorically told me Ikwerre was not Igbo. She said there was no time Ikwerre had accepted to be Igbo. Not before the war or after the war.
There are many ways Igbos can win the heart of these people that speak similar language and form a formidable front. It is far from annexation. That wont work. Before the war and when there was no idea of it even when the apparatchik of governance were fully under Igbo control in the Eastern Nigeria, Ikwerre in 1963 formed the Ogbakor Ikwerre Convention.
First of all, Ikwerre is not Igbo. We have made this clear even before the civil war and that was why some Igbo accused Ikwerre of sabotage during the war. Second, in all efforts by the minorities in the former Eastern region to agitate for their own political, social and economic recognition and liberty in the Eastern region and Nigeria at large, Ikwerre participated fully: hence, the late Chief E. J. A. Oriji and others represented Ikwerre before and during most of the conferences set up to address the fears of the minority ethnic groups in Nigeria. Third, in May 1963, Ikwerre people formed the Ogbakor Ikwerre Convention to state that Ikwerre is a distinct ethnic group from any others in Nigeria. Fourth, in the 1964/65 elections into the Federal House of Representatives, National Council of Nigeria and the Camerouns (NCNC) nominated an Igbo man named Mr. Eluguronu to represent Ikwerre in the House. Ikwerre rejected it and fielded young Nwobidike Nwanodi as an independent candidate and he won. Fifth, Ikwerre's participation in all the movements for the creation of COR and later Rivers States clearly shows Ikwerre's rejection of been Igbo.

Okpanam youths are not wrong for burning fulani settlements in reprisal for killing of vigilante chairman and his secretary. I dare say they in addition to destroying the settlement, about six fulanis should have been slaughtered to send strong message that their excesses in South will be opposed with Southern madness. Why is Ohanaeze unsettled and panicking? Will Igbos kill head of vigilante in North? I dont think so. So what emboldens fulani to try such in Igboland? By such idiot1c and stewp1d moves Ohanaeze subordinates Igbo under fulani authority. I condemn Ohanaeze's intervention.

When Igbo say CHI and Ikwerre say CHI, are the two identifiers of exact same thing? When Igbo say CHUKWU and Ikwere say CHUKWU, are you both saying same thing? If not then you are different and separate cultures and people.

It will do Ikwerre good to find new identities in culture and language that is distinct and does not share reference with meanings and terms in Igbo.

It's all good and fine that Ikwerre are not Igbo until it becomes beneficial to you to claim so..
Don't get me wrong,I care less whether Ikwerre people are from the moon..
But times without number when it suits you,you play the Igbo card..

You are evil, plain and simple. You talk like a fool devoid of a sense of history.

The ills committed by Igbos all over the world, who are being blamed for it? You think the Islamic fundamentalists care? Next time when there is a pogrom committed against Igbo people and other people of southern Nigerian origin living in northern Nigeria, tell them you are from the South East and not South South. Mumu, you are now blaming Nzeogwu. Had he succeeded, I wonder who would have benefited more.

When she was alive I tried to ask her if Ikwerre was Igbo with her experience and knowledge going by her age. She categorically told me Ikwerre was not Igbo. She said there was no time Ikwerre had accepted to be Igbo. Not before the war or after the war.
There are many ways Igbos can win the heart of these people that speak similar language and form a formidable front. It is far from annexation. That wont work. Before the war and when there was no idea of it even when the apparatchik of governance were fully under Igbo control in the Eastern Nigeria, Ikwerre in 1963 formed the Ogbakor Ikwerre Convention.
First of all, Ikwerre is not Igbo. We have made this clear even before the civil war and that was why some Igbo accused Ikwerre of sabotage during the war. Second, in all efforts by the minorities in the former Eastern region to agitate for their own political, social and economic recognition and liberty in the Eastern region and Nigeria at large, Ikwerre participated fully: hence, the late Chief E. J. A. Oriji and others represented Ikwerre before and during most of the conferences set up to address the fears of the minority ethnic groups in Nigeria. Third, in May 1963, Ikwerre people formed the Ogbakor Ikwerre Convention to state that Ikwerre is a distinct ethnic group from any others in Nigeria. Fourth, in the 1964/65 elections into the Federal House of Representatives, National Council of Nigeria and the Camerouns (NCNC) nominated an Igbo man named Mr. Eluguronu to represent Ikwerre in the House. Ikwerre rejected it and fielded young Nwobidike Nwanodi as an independent candidate and he won. Fifth, Ikwerre's participation in all the movements for the creation of COR and later Rivers States clearly shows Ikwerre's rejection of been Igbo.
The problem is, Igbos are not even begging Ikwerres or other Niger Delta tribes to become Igbo or to accept that they are Igbos no.....of course UK comprises of English people, Irish, Wales....an Irish man will never accept that he is English but he will never deny UK or betray UK or English man when push comes to sholve but then when he encounters problem abroad or somewhere he runs back to UK and the English man defends him and pays for his crime, that is the issue.


Tell your people to stop that quick denial of Igbos after they cause trouble which Igbos still bear the brunt.


If an Ikwerre man commits a crime in the North or even abroad, nobody calls him Ikwerre man, nobody care about him being Niger Delta, they will tag him Igbo and start to maltreat every other Igbo person there just because of what an Ikwerre man or Agbor man or Ndokwa man or Ogwashi man or Anioma person did, and Igbos will never deny him that he is not Igbo but will stand by him even in crises, but let an Igbo man encounter a problem anywhere, Ikwerre, Ndoki, Agbor, Anioma, Ogwashi, and other so called Niger Delta people will deny the Igbo man asap!



It hurts. If this continues the new generation of Igbos are learning and are wiser, things will not continue to be like it is....they will have no option but to start denying these Niger Delta people..... Igbos don't defend Niger Delta people because of crude oil, don't be deceived Igbo communities also have crude oil....Igbos have been defending and even joining Southern Cameroonians to fight Northern Cameroonians marginalizing them.


Igbos have been speaking out for Middlebelt people despite they evil they committed against innocent Igbos living in the North in the 1966 northern pogrom.


Igbos even joined Liberians to fight during Charles Taylor era....Igbos joined South Africans to fight during White Apartheid.

My uncle fought for Burmakri.


Niger Delta should wake up, denying Igbos will not make Hausa-Fulanis nor Yorubas love you or treat you kindly and not marginalise and usurper your region

The problem is, Igbos are not even begging Ikwerres or other Niger Delta tribes to become Igbo or to accept that they are Igbos no.....of course UK comprises of English people, Irish, Wales....an Irish man will never accept that he is English but he will never deny UK or betray UK or English man when push comes to sholve but then when he encounters problem abroad or somewhere he runs back to UK and the English man defends him and pays for his crime, that is the issue.


Tell your people to stop that quick denial of Igbos after they cause trouble which Igbos still bear the brunt.


If an Ikwerre man commits a crime in the North or even abroad, nobody calls him Ikwerre man, nobody care about him being Niger Delta, they will tag him Igbo and start to maltreat every other Igbo person there just because of what an Ikwerre man or Agbor man or Ndokwa man or Ogwashi man or Anioma person did, and Igbos will never deny him that he is not Igbo but will stand by him even in crises, but let an Igbo man encounter a problem anywhere, Ikwerre, Ndoki, Agbor, Anioma, Ogwashi, and other so called Niger Delta people will deny the Igbo man asap!



It hurts. If this continues the new generation of Igbos are learning and are wiser, things will not continue to be like it is....they will have no option but to start denying these Niger Delta people..... Igbos don't defend Niger Delta people because of crude oil, don't be deceived Igbo communities also have crude oil....Igbos have been defending and even joining Southern Cameroonians to fight Northern Cameroonians marginalizing them.


Igbos have been speaking out for Middlebelt people despite they evil they committed against innocent Igbos living in the North in the 1966 northern pogrom.


Igbos even joined Liberians to fight during Charles Taylor era....Igbos joined South Africans to fight during White Apartheid.

My uncle fought for Burmakri.


Niger Delta should wake up, denying Igbos will not make Hausa-Fulanis nor Yorubas love you or treat you kindly and not marginalise and usurper your region
You started well by narrating the relationship between The UK of GB and Northern Ireland. These people have similar culture that outside UK it is hard to tell Welsh from English. That is what is expected of Igbos to do. We are the same people with common origin. However saying Ikwerre is Igbo which you know is not correct is the problem. Igbo and other related tribes can form a union. That is the best way to have a formidable front.

Your council is cursed. Did Igbo's in the north kill anybody to fear any reprisals? Or you expect Igbos to lie low while herder terrorists kill their parents and leaders to appropriate their land by force?
