Igbo and Ijaw, what is the real difference?

Ijaw and igbo are too difference in everything..

udezue:
Time for them to UNITE abeg. We also need all groups n da East to unite. We sure won't get far if we don't carry others along vice versa. Efik Ibibios Annang Oron gotta come around too.

@poster
I actually read the article by Sam-James Hedded. I'm not sure of the relationship between Ijaw people's association and MEND, but let me just say that while the article attempted to immortalize Adaka Boro, it did not go far enough to look back and make a critical analysis of the problems of the Igbos and their Ijaw cousins.
From all I know Adaka Boro betrayed his Eastern Nigerian brethren and joined forces with the Western and Northern Nigerians who later killed him. Ken saro-Wiwa did same thing too; and we all know his fate. The task before all of us is to make a critical and honest assesment of the circumstances surrounding the Eastern/igbo struggle in the 1960s vs what obtains today.
History will tell whether it was wise to join forces with outsiders to crush your brother simply because of natural and internal problems.

useless igbo people. We cant unite with animals like u..

Ojukwu and ironisi join with outsiders to kill many Ijaw people..

Abagworo:
both sides have wronged the other in many ways but what i still wonder is why we cant form a formidable socio-political force.Written and proven history shows the intimate pre-colonial relationship.okrika-mbaise,opobo-ndoki-orlu to mention but few.

its igbos that keep wronging us.. we have not wrong igbos

It's very disappointing when you start mixing up facts to show that Igbos have always been out to colonize everybody. PH was developed even before the oil was struck. There's no question that oil made expansion more rapid, but there were Igbos in PH before oil.
Ikwere's are Igbos, they know it. Ikwerres driving Igbos out of PH was akin to Onitsha people driving out Nnewi traders from the market after Hausa people promise to give them all Nnewi goods. Once again, it's only shortsighted, and gaullible people like the Ijaws who would fall for that.

this guy, you are a real mugu and ignorant.. We Ijaws have nothing in common with igbos..
