cheruv:You don't have to pretend to be moderate when you're still laddened with the burden shallow-minded & ignorance in this issue. You're just being petty & lackluster, knowledgable people know very well the pasts you omitted are nothing but the TRUTH but you Mr. Petty called it BuuSheeet, We can all detect your pettiness from afar. I'm not an Ijaw Chauvinist, Ijaws don't breed Chauvinist but Warriors, Brave men, Extraordinary people & We're gods. So I'd like to see myself as a Knight of Ijawland. I don't claim what does't belong to me like what you Igbos are doing nor claim to be superior to Igbos (even though we are) so I can never be a Chauvinist, You mR. Pettiness, are a Chauvinist mixed with a toxic level of ignorance, and that is a very bad combination. It can lead to insanity. |

cheruv: Frater...there's no need arguing over this or that kos all we've to do is look at the facts which includes maps to backup or refute our claimsYou're not concerned about the ancestry/decent of the ENTIRE Ekpeye (Ahoada) people because they're NOW Igbos, I'm not contesting that with you; its none of my concern. But you're concerned with FEW ex-Igbo slaves adopted as SONS in a Ijaw man's house! This is the futility of the Igbo man's logic, It sucks! cheruv: Concerning the bonny and opobo issues,I've dwelt extensively on them so there's no need repeating myself so that peeps won't think you're hard at learning.moreover I've this feeling you don't know what CREOLE meansThe definition of creole is not the issue here, pls prove that I didn't expose you & ur lies by repeating ur fake "dump site" history of the Bonny/Opobo people. Admit it Mr. Man, I've put you to shame. cheruv: As per PH matter,I'd leave that to the ikwerres kos both cartographically and otherwise,the land is theirs.they call it igweocha(white cliffs if am correct) though the Brits called it after a gentleman,Sir Harcourt.what dd the ijos call the area?[Educate me]Oh! Now you're leaving the PH matter for Ikwerre? I thought you're their advocate, so you didn't even know nothing about PH? What a shame! Ijaw call the area Port Harcourt. Its epicenter is what is now known as Port Harcourt Town or simply TOWN. All the Ijaw areas of PH still retain their original Ijaw names and none of them was ever "Igweocha" cheruv: From your posts,your arguements are based on emotions which is quite understandable from a chauvinist like you,though I'd prefer facts from a cool headed gentleman.Just bow out in shame, you have nothing to say 1 Like |

ijaw citizen: You don't have to pretend to be moderate when you're still laddened with the burden shallow-minded & ignorance in this issue.Being petty minded is very bad,dude I must also confess you've a good sense of humor there...even claiming to be a God Pls can you tell me what am wearing tonight? Or whether my babe is coming over for a rendezvous? Don't make me believe that you're a dolt in addition to your being chauvinist..that would be too terrible a pill for me to swallow I believe you're a sagacious and perspicacious soul who isn't ruled by emotions. You're claiming all these chivalrous titles kos of your innate fear of the igbos..that they'd overrun your land and drive ijos to the sea seriously forget about them...they're only interested in busineSs,just like the people of Sin(china).your land is a collection of penisulars and islands and also comparatively poor as regards to land of the ibibios yet the igbos haven't done anything to the mmoghos,so they'd not do anyting to your people except doing business with them.

pazienza: Degema and Andoni had never been ijaw,and that haven't changed. Degema people are Edoid. pazienza: Abua and odual are not Ijaws. As a matter of fact,abua language had been said to be a proto ibibio language. Abagworo:Mr. Abagworo, the bitterness of the fact that some Rivers people refuse the Igbo tag on them should not be used as an excuse to remove the Ijaws in Rivers from other Ijaws, THAT IS PURE JEALOUSY. And the strategy is: It is not working well for Igbos in their CLAIM for "igbo territories" in Rivers state so it must not work well for the Ijaws and the God-made people & territories in Rivers state. You can not fight God, Ijaws remain Ijaws, your petty Igbo Nairaland propaganda isn't gonna change the reality on ground. The other ignoramuses use Language difference as the yardstick of determining who is Ijaw & who is not. That is PURE EMOTIONAL REASONING, modern humans have evolved beyond that. Language is NEVER a yardstick for determining the erhnicity of a people. Ethnographers, Anthropologist, & Historians use the History& Culture of a people amongst other things as the yardstick. Only Educated people know this, a knowledge which seems to be far away from the slanted head humanoids. I & other Ijaws don't dabble on Igbo issues as to who is Igbo and who is not Igbo OR come to say some Igbos are not Igbos, it is so none of my busines! So why all these swarm of flea-like Igbos and the vigorous manner in which they try in there petty reasoning in determining who is Ijaw & who is not. This is pure OBSESSION. Get it Igbos, You're JEALOUS You're CONFUSED You're OBSESSED....all about Ijawland! Wow we rock!.....and you'all SUCK. 1 Like |

kel4soft:Its really nice finally identifying some "Igbos" in Opobo Ama. Few questions though. 1. Are these the "Igbos" in Opubo Ama or SONS of Ijawmen? 2. Do they see themselves or function as IGBO CHIEFS in Opubo Ama or as IJAW chiefs? 3. What about the "Igbos slaves who were DUMPED in Opubo Ama? |

ijaw citizen: The fact there is some form of enmity/rivary between Opobians & Andonis doesn't make them less Ijaws, Andonis are as Ijaw as the man in Bayelsa or Okrika. I simply don't know why you say Andonis(alternatively called Obolos) are not Ijaws. To answer that question we must also asked WHERE DID IJAW COME FROM? The two are inseparable questions. There have been very sound arguments made here in Nairaland that "Ijo" are from GHANA, and were European porters who served the early European slave traders from 1400s. There is no cultural or linguistic link between Ijo and any other Eastern Nigerian group. When the time comes we shall remind you of that. 3 Likes |

cheruv: You are wasting your time with that iediot masquerade. For now, it would be better to remind him that Ijo own no land in the East. No fishers, water dwellers, or boat people own any land anywhere in the world. They live on waters. The Ijo are earliest european slaves/porters who helped the early slave dealers to conduct the ignoble trade. Have you taken time to listen to "Ijo"? It is the most FOREIGN language you'd hear in Eastern Nigeria. Their behavior is also totally alien to that part of Nigeria. They are LAZY and THOUGHTLESS. They contribute NOTHING to development. 1 Like |

kel4soft:Andoni can not Identify with the Ibani because they are different Kingdoms entirely, which is the Obolo (Andoni) people of the Ijaw nation. Is Ibani now a different Kingdom from Kalabari, Okrika & Nembes? Aren't they all Ijaws? Do the Kalabari people force Ibani people to identify as Kalabaris? We Ijaws know ourselves even though we have our different clans/Kingdoms, these are just ancient administrative units of the Ijaw nation and each of these units do thing their way and even fashion their own dialects. The reason why you confuse Andonis as non-Ijaws is because most Clans/Kingdoms at the Fringes of Ijawland are plagued with the loss of their Ijaw dialect. From Apoi in Ondo thru' Kiagbodo in Delta, Epie/Atissa, Ogbia, Engenni in Bayelsa and Degema, Engenni, Abua, OPOBO and the Andonis (Andoni, Eastern Obolo & Ibeno LGs) in Rivers & akwa Ibom states- the story remains the same. For proper education on the identity of the Andonis, pls read The History of Andoni (Obolo) -by Nkparom Ejituwu. If you have any questions, pls don't hesitate to ask. |

In the same way, Edo people are also igbos since Stella Odua married from there. Or maybe Imo is now Ijaw since Deizani Allison Madueke married from there.
