ok, yeah. Andonis and some other riverine tribes generally do no like marrying ogonis and vice versa becos of a tribal war that happened a long time ago but this current generation is getting over that. with time this whole issue will be dealt with.

The Ogonis are peculiar in that from their history they've always being a close knit group. In d generality, marriage to outsiders , except to close neighbors like d ibibios and Andonis etc was frowned upon..
I think this issue of hatred/discrimination has to do with the suspicious view others had of a group that wasn't understood and past conflicts (esp.with some of d riverine tribes)

..n yes, they can be quite stubborn in their beliefs...doesn't make f good politics

..Do d Google, I just did.

The reason why people hate ogoni is because anything good is always disregard, hhmm if you think ogoni is not good keep buying fuel from saudi arabi and later you people will complain the oil contain much methain, see ogoni is the richest and if they say there is oil in north why not mine oil from the north, please if you think ogoni is not good stop collecting there oils, ogoni possess more than oil. God bless ogoni. Since you people hate we ogonis, yoruba only your gold and buy fuel from usa for you to depend there after counting therr gain spend 1000naira per litre. Hausa use ony you stones forget oil start trekking no fuelable bike. Our enemies onaa think you get sense nigeria never see anything fuel go be 15000 naira next year money policy by Gods grace.

I wouldn't know, the ogoni are one of the many eastern peoples i respect, they have routinely stood up to a government that is uncaring and callous, i wish one day they were free of Nigeria
