Blood of Jesus

This is what Tinubu has sent Yoruba youth to do. Agitation will not give anyone Presidency anymore. That It worked for Ijaw and Boko Haram worked for North didn't make it work for Igbos via IPOB. Yorubas do not have the liver for this

Blackking98:
Mad man


I made friends with an ikwerre girl recently on Whatsapp GC, we were discussing on how you guys were similar to igbos but she told me u guys speak different language from Igbo, is it true?

Somehow different, somehow similar. Depends on the clan and it's location. clans closer to Igboland is more related in language while this far especially those in Emohua LGA is very difficult for Igbos to understand. And they don't understand Igbo too.

Blackking98:
My man, are you ikwerre?

I am from Okopedi in Okobo local government of Akwa Ibom state. I'm an APC member.


I'm from Ikwerre.

Amaechi needs to do all it takes to wrestle Rivers APC from the grip of Wike. All Abe's faction of APC are Wikes loyalists.

Amaechi can't get anything from the courts in PH. So Abuja is surest for him.

Collyweed:
I frankly couldn’t give a fvck what a few hundred thousand people choose to call themselves. The other 40 million is more than enough company.

I’m not Yahweh and I can’t be searching for any lost sheep.

This few hundred thousand are the largest ethnic group in Rivers. And Rivers is more than 7million.

Osagyefo98:
You shouldn't be talking about unity when the main agenda is to raise consciousness and formally draw line between the two.

Kwame Osagyefo Nkrumah. Meles Zenawi, Julius Malema. All these people were pan africanists. Act your Moniker.

Well done to all of una. By December bushmeat go finish for Nigeria. And all of una go rest.

Igboid:
Well, we are currently doing our own "strategic withdrawal". What is good for the goose should naturally be fitting for the gander too.

No need for that. You are becoming an Igbo influencer on NL. With that comes responsibility. Don't be an agent of division between brothers. Unite not divide.

Sammy07:
Lol, I was there for a short stay 3months.
And it's official assignments, not visitation.

You stayed in Akure.
I'm sure you must have heard of Ondo city and Ile Oluji.

If you understand Akure very well, you won't be able to differentiate between Ondo and Ile Oluji dialect.
Cos you would think they are speaking the same thing.

If ijebu and Itshekiri are speaking, won't be able to diffrenctiate them.

Akure and Ekiti has similar dialects




I never denied that there is no igbo in SS, I only said it was on nairaland I heard something like Ikewerre.

In fairness to you, I couldn't differentiate anything. They were all Yorubas to me. But Ikwerre is recognized even in Nigerian Constitution as a separate ethnic group from Igbo.

Igboid:
Nnaa! Your people started the denial game, we learnt from you and we are now taking it to the next level.

It is not denial. it is referred to as "strategic withdrawal". Apologies to Nigeria army

Sammy07:
Oga, how do you expect me to differentiate you guys when I went to ph?

You guys speak the same thing, you don't fight over their, your names are the same how do you want me to know?

Is like you coming to my town.
My town is founded by a twins, next town beside us is our second twin.

If you see both of us speaking, you'll think we're speaking the same thing, in fact even the other Yorubas will think we are speaking the same thing.

But both I and that person knew that we are speaking different dialects.

So you went to Rivers and never cared to know the landowners. When I was living in Ijapo estate in Akure. I flowed with the natives wella.

Sammy07:
Oga, how do you expect me to differentiate you guys when I went to ph?

Igboid we are one. come and see confirmation. Bring whiteangel123 along.

Port Harcourt no follow you

Sammy07:
No Yoruba is denying that, it's your Ikewerre brothers that are denying you.

If not for Nairaland, I never for once knew an ethnic group called Ikewerre

But you claimed to have been in PH sometime back. How come you knew Ikwerre from Nairaland??

PROUDIGBO:
YES.....they almost won! You have a problem with that?

For almost three years, a whole useless Nigeria couldn't beat a region (you claim is so small) on the battle field! The ass whopping they were receiving got so bad that they finally had to resort to economic and food blockade....as well as using evil Egyptian pilots to strafe farmlands, schools and markets to finally beat the plucky Biafrans!

Cut the long arguments short. Did you win the Biafran war. Yes or No.

Are you even educated.. making noise at your failure.

Grayoso:
Back to sender. We know you envy the universally acclaimed religious tolerance, liberalism and dedication to pluralistic society the Yorubas are known for.

Learn from it and stop allowing your hateful heart prevent you from seeing that it is okay to praise others and take lessens from what they are doing better than you and your own intolerant, bigoted and discriminatory people.

“Yoruba Muslims are not getting the dividends of democracy in Yorubaland. They are treated like underdogs. But instead of taking to violence they head to the courts. Even then they are not getting justice in the courts. It is getting to boiling point and we are hoping that Yoruba Muslims will not put their backs to the wall very soon. We appeal to Muslims in Yorubaland in particular and Nigeria in general to remain calm. It may be a long road but we will get there one day. Nonetheless, the road must not be painted in red.”

Professor Ishaq Akintola,
Director,
Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC).

I am only an analyst oga. Direct whatever concerns and prayers you have to Professor Akintola. Like I said, Na for PH I go dey hear the story.

helinues:
Official Mumuric, you are on your own on this...

Why do you guys always go against anything interest of average Yoruba?

Advise your Prof to behave like real Omoluwabi instead of looking for trouble where there is none

Just a little more push from northern Muslims and Yoruba Muslims will shock Yoruba christians. Or Fulani sef fit help and do the do

Na Port Harcourt we go dey hear the story.

Kinematics:
Why are you paying attention to that anambala cow. If he likes let him post pictures of Brazilian favelas, Indian or Nairobi slums to show as PH.

His shithole onitsha will always remain in the shadows of PH

Onitsha has been condemned by nature to perpetually remain in the shadows of PH.

Kinematics:
The guy just showed his vague knowledge of Rivers. Theres one thing I've noticed about most people everywhere to them in Rivers is Port Harcourt. Even the dude said no other LGA in Rivers is developed apart from Port Harcourt. That was when I gave up.

Someone in Akpajo now will not know that he/she is already in Eleme LGA, but will be thinking they are in Port Harcourt. Someone in Rumuola does not know that even though they are in PHC they are not in Port Harcourt local government. Even someone in Oyigbo will say they are in Port Harcourt.

We know the name Port Harcourt is popular that's why many dont even know the LGA they are in when in Rivers. They just call it Port Harcourt.

Moreover the city has spread that even someone living in Igwuruta doesnt not know he/she is already in Ikwerre LGA.

The other day a friend came to Rivers to visit his aunt from Warri. He was in Igbo-Etche. He called me to ask me where am I that he is in PH, I asked him where in PH is he and he said Igbo Etche. I had to explain Rivers state to him.

To them everywhere is Port Harcourt. The development has spread that they cant tell anymore.

There are no way too many Ignorant people on Nairaland. Nothing we no dey see here..

PortHarcourt1st:
Kinematics stop disgracing our PORT HARCOURT everywhere. PORT HARCOURT should be demolished because it is filled with shanties and slums.

Pictures: PORT HARCOURT

There is no proof that those pics is PH. Chinonso Dike, show us proof of claims. Show a landmark or anything to show that you're posting PH on the net.

Osagyefo98:
IGR everywhere....

This can be anywhere in Igboland. Show us your proof of claims. A random picture cannot be said to be somewhere in particular if you don't show an address or landmark to verify your claim.

caleboxylic:
Okrika, kalabari, and ogoni are not lazy.

Okrika and kalabari are educated and doing very well in entrepreneurship.

Ogoni are good in farming and Agro processing.

What do you say about Ikwerre? Take political power of rivers state from Ikwerre and you will see the level of poverty in Ikwerre land.

Why all this.. What is wrong with you this Sunday afternoon?

EVILFOREST:
..... na their way. They can't deny it. Most of them don't travel. One of them wept the day he visited JIGAWA and saw NYSC CAMP...

abeg, wetin im see for JIGAWA camp wey make am cry

realoscar84:
Ikwerres and their unreasonable quest for money is unparalleled. I could remember in 90's when shell bp oil company wanted to lay water pipes along the street so that rumuokwurushi community people can access a clean tap water 24/7 from their quarters at Aba road. They asked the company to pay for the land they will lay the pipes on. That was how the project was abandoned. The company only decide to construct some taps outside the gate of the quarters so that people can still come and fetch.

Organizations willing to carry out community projects should go through the state or local government. That way, community extortion will not be possible as the state or local government will ensure that any community leader or CDC chairman who insist on levy before development can be carried out with be dealt with decisively.


Pls you people should stop insulting Ikwerres particularly becos it happens with other ethnic groups.

Kemight15:
I don't understand your sexism

Women are closer to kids. If she is character that is quick in expressing vulgarity, she can easily pass that on kids, thereby harming young minds.

realoscar84:
Must you mention mosque? You can simply make ur point and pass. U are part of the problem we are talking about.

But Churches are always in the news for good things and contributions to betterment of humanity. We rarely hear anything of such about mosques. Or can't he air his observations??

obembet:
Ikwerre people and thier madness for money.. That's they they are backward. They travel outside thier state to learn from others. That's they their Governor insult their kings in public

You are a lady. You need to write with decorum.

Sammy07:
You don't get?

I myself, if not for Nairaland, I didn't know there is Ikewerre anywhere

I see him as an Igbo man, since 2012.

I don't even know there is Ikewerre anywhere.

I'm sure I'm not the only one.
Most people see him as igbo.

All these rejection or so, is just your internal problem.

Other Nigerians see him as igbo

You claimed to have lived in PH before. Anyone who lives in PH for even 1day must know about Ikwerre. But now you have only known about Ikwerre from Nairaland. .

Which am I to believe.
