aljharem:Grateful to who, Lol? Do we look like the weak ijaws writting u ego massaging thank u letter. we want level play ground for all while others want special consideration after which they will write long thank u epistle. who has thanked us for Babatunde Fafunwa, first UNN dean of Educattion faculty and a brief acting UNN VC or Adaka Boro's SUG presidency in UNN. |

tonyebarcanista the ogogoro drinking loser, the lunatic who wakes up in the morning and uses kainkain to wash his face like his fellow drinking losers. Tonyebarcanista, come here and kneel down, raise up ya hands and close ya eyes. The will be sent to harvest corn for Igbos from their farms at the right time. Salute to General Ikechu1278. Ikechu1278 is a whirlwind; very difficult to contain. |

Ogbuefi2020:Boro LOST the SUG Presidency of UNN because the Igbo majority could not tolerate a 'vocal minority' to lead an igbo majority. He lost again the second time in similar fashion. But the third time, the Igbos had two contestants, while the non-Igbos backed Boro. Yes, the two igbos splitted Igbo votes while the non indigene united front gave Boro the seat. #this is from Boro's memoir!!! 1 Like |

TonyeBarcanista:All u are telling us here are special favour by the divide and conquer collabo which igbos have defied with their high caliber human capital. these are not achievments but special previledges which has not made u anywhere close to the high achiving igbos. To hell with gratitute seeking ido.ots and those begging for their endorsement. The eastean region built PH under Micheal Okpara from the proceed of Coal. The eastern region started University of Calabar as a extension of UNN, they did not agitate or beg for it. The middle belt ppl fought for ABU to be have a Jos campus but the hausa/Fulani refused until they went to UI to get UI Jos Campus (now Uijos). Eyo Ita was Premier Eastern Region.Adaka Boro became SUG president of UNN in the 60s. we demand no gratitute from anybody, all great achievers will have a place in our lives, we dont give ppl special previleges neither do we seek for one, we seek justice and level playground for all |

TonyeBarcanista:you are avoiding me. Its like truth hurts u so hard. Never again mention Igbos and ijaws in the same sentence, even in the next 100 generations to come, Igbos will be ahead of your minority ijaw in all areas and achievements.. Producing an ijaw Weakling as a president is not an achievement but a mistake caused by yaraduas death. The Yorubas here ignored ur bromance because you are of No Value before them. #FACT. |

Ogbuefi2020:This is another BIG lie! The major earning of the Eastern region was PALM OIL. The Palm oil was majorly from the Niger Delta. PH was in existence looooong before the British 'forcefully' lumped us together with the Igbos in Eastern region in 1951. In fact, natives in Rivers were pushed to background while the Igbos coveted our lands in PH.... This was the main reason FG handed over the properties (and land) to the indigenes during Gowon era. Was it not Azikiwe that chased away Ita after he was defeated by the AG in Western region which made Ita to float a new party? Most importantly, non of our agitations were met under eastern region... Thank GOD we got our own state courtesy Awo and Gowon... I can't forget the contributions of Obi Wali(Ikwerre), Saro Wiwa(Ogoni), Claude Ake (Omoku) and Isaac Boro (Ijaw) to see the Rivers state come to light. 7 Likes |

TonyeBarcanista:I don't kia how u twist things to suit u. Winning election in a place where u are a minority is not a child's play, Boro did it by improving on his strategies until he got it right and igbos are doing same in Lagos. we did not give Boro special privilege because we have standard, we do not demand gratitute for Boro's achievement. |

TonyeBarcanista:The same Rivers state that was given to ur ijaw men as a gift of shameless betrayal. How come the Ikwerres are dominating you people now in Rivers? Is that not Nemesis? Here in Delta, we Aniomas are ruling the state and you people are simply minorities. After betrayal, you people have only one majority state, is that not Nemesis? |

TonyeBarcanista:Port Harcourt is know as the port built for the purpose of thriving coal industry Enugu. The name Port harcourt came because there was a certain port built, the purpose of building the port was for Enugu's coal. The modern portharcourt was the brainchild of Micheal Okpara. the rest of ur arguments do not worth any logical attention. Boro killed, Wiwa Hung, GEJ kicked out all by ur so called saviour. Igbos never cared that non igbo is ruling easten region or that the fulani an was the mayor of enugu until Awolowo started tribalism iin the west to the disadvantage of zik, his action of resorting to tribalism too has been condemn by all igbo scholarly work of today but he later succeded in taking his party to national level while the rest remained local champions forever. As for the bolded, there is nothing like natives of rivers state, represent ur tribe, on the issue of land, go and check Kano, Lagos Abuja etc and see the amount of land and properties igbos have acquired, did they also got that with power of eastern region?? |

Tequilah:Don't mind them. The clown up there is even dumb! He 'claimed' that the Ijaws are being dominated but he forgot that Odili an Ndoni man was supported by ALL Rivers people. Amaechi's biggest support in 2007 and 2011 was the riverine people even when our 'kinsmen' were interested in the position. Abiye Sekibo (Okrika) and Princewill Tonye(Kalabari prince) were rejected at the poll. Majority of Dakuku Peterside's supporters are from Ikwerre, while Wike's BIGGEST fanbase are the Riveriners. What does that tell you? Rivers people are not interested in 'tribal fight'. Amaechi the Chief Supporter of Dakuku is Ikwerre, Dakuku is Ijaw. Wike's Chief supporter is Mama Peace, Wike is Ikwerre. On this forum, I'm pro-Wike and I'm Ijaw. HopeAtHand is Ikwerre and pro-Peterside. Doesn't that ring a bell? We are one in rivers despite our diversity. Rivers East Senatorial district is shared by part of riverine and Ikwerre, yet Ikwerre sons are backing riverine George Sekibo instead of Ikwerre person. 4 Likes |

TonyeBarcanista:Dats ur state politics, if u come to national politics, Igbos are among the greatest supporters of OBJ, GEJ and Shagari, same ppl that say igbos dont support their own still turn around and say igbos play tribal politics, the inconsistency is just funny |

Ogbuefi2020:Like I said, PHC was built with palm oil proceeds from the Niger Delta. It was conceived and named after Lord Harcourt who also was the initiator of the port. The first treaty for Portharcourt was signed between the Okrikans(Ijaws) and the British. Later, another treaty was signed between Rebisi(Ikwerre) and the British. The documents are still there. So stop calling Okpara. We don't know him in Rivers state. He made NO impact on us. Money used to run Eastern region was from Palm oil. We were called "Oil Rivers" for a reason. Abeg carry ya coal story wakar joor.. Boro was killed by the fleeing Biafrans in okrika(Fact!). Wiwa was killed by the State under Abacha and NOT the north. In fact, prominent northerners condemned the killing. Jonathan LOST an election just like anybody else. Same election he won four years ago. Stop crying more than the bereaved... We have moved on! As for natives of PHC, we know ourselves but we got our lands back from the Igbos that illegally acquired it... Time to move on! 4 Likes |

TonyeBarcanista:face me like a man and talk. stop hiding under women's skirt. Ikwerres Own Rivers state.. No one takes you drunkards serious, not even the 3 Majority tribe. the last election confirmed it. when the weakling called GEJ was booted out of office. In APC Buharis government now, Igbos are represented in it more than your minority tribe. |

Ogbuefi2020:Nobody cares about the intention of the coup because no one is God to know what the true intent are but what's most important is the plot itself and the action carried out, which was the extermination of all regional leaders apart from the ibo leaders! As a matter of fact, the true gist was to kill all the regional leaders, thereby bringing a new dawn to Nigeria until the ibos in their midst hijacked the plan, informed their ibo leaders, most especially Azikwe, who flew out of the country during the plot! 2 Likes |
