Igbo: A Recognized Ethnic Group In Rivers State, Says RVSG by Nobody: 12:00am On Sep 29, 2016 |
The government of Rivers state has debuked the fake website making the rounds that Igbo isn't a recognized ethnic nationality in the state. The said website isn't the official government website of the state. No where in Nigeria does an official government site ends with net.ng. The real and authentic RVSG website is http://www.riverstate.gov.ng which has been non-functional for a long time now and shall soon undergo repairs. The fake website www.riversstate.net.ng is a cloned site anchored by nefarious persons. The public should take note. Below is the true ethnic grouping of Rivers state. Rivers State Capital : Port Harcourt Website : www.riverstate.gov.ng Governor : Nyesom Wike ISO 3166 code : NG-RI Created on May 27, 1967, Rivers state covers a total area of 11,077 km2 (4,277 sq mi) and has a total population of 5,198,716 as at the 2006 census. With an average population density of 469/km2 (3063/sq mi) and a total GDP (2010) of $21,073 Million, at $3,965 Per Capita. Rivers State is one of the 36 states of Nigeria. Its capital is Port Harcourt. It is bounded on the South by the Atlantic Ocean, to the North by Imo, Abia and Anambra States, to the East by Akwa Ibom State and to the West by Bayelsa and Delta states. Rivers state is home to three main ethnic groups: Igbo, Ijaw, and Ogoni. The inland part of Rivers state consists of tropical rainforest; towards the coast the typical Niger Delta environment features many mangrove swamps. Agriculture is the main occupation of the people of Rivers State and the agricultural policy of the state government is anchored on food production. This provides employment for young school leavers and university graduates. These agricultural activities are grouped' under Community Block Farming Scheme, Community Fishing Scheme, Livestock Scheme and Rabbitry. Rivers State has one of the largest economies in Nigeria, mainly because of its crude oil. Major Towns: Port Harcourt Bonny Ahoada Opobo Okrika State Governor Rivers state governor Ezenwo Nyesom Wike (born 24 August 1967) is a Nigerian lawyer, politician and Governor of Nigeria's oil-rich Rivers State. He is from Rumuepirikom in Obio-Akpor, Rivers State, Nigeria. He is a member of the ruling People's Democratic Party. Wike was appointed minister of state for education on 14 July 2011 but resigned before finishing his term to campaign for Governor of Rivers State. In 2014, he won the Rivers State Governorship Election on March 28, 2015.

They are experts in cyber crime. They created that website to cause disaffection between the Igbos in Rivers and their brothers and sisters over there. They are not happy with the harmony that is existing between them. I'm talking about this Republic. 40 Likes 5 Shares

Why all this fuse..are we trying to reject a fact that is factual,obvious and evidential. To what purpose? People saying that ibos are not indigenous to rivers state..what are they trying to achieve.. Evenif the state government omitted it in their website..is a correction that must be made. Am not ibo, but I stand by the truth.i don't want to start mentioning ibo town in rivers..many of us know.. But am only trying to figure out..to what purpose is the division . And some people are proudly happy about it..ieven those that are not from rivers state... You can't go to communities and made this comment..will spark a tribal difference that may take long to settle.. Please..let's understand that our actions online may have an offline effects. Every indigenous rivers man know there are ibos indigenous to the state..they may bear different names..but we count them as ibos.. 2 Likes 1 Share |

This Afonja people and deception. It's in their blood Ike glucose. Very mischievous, wicked, vile, sedonic, demonic and ragubucious people. This was how an Afonja was flogged by an Ikwerre man the other day with a chain in Igwuocha for telling him he is not Igbo. The Ikwerre man chased him and flogged him on the neck with a chain. He almost killed this guy if not for the intervention of the police. 16 Likes 2 Shares |

If you like,deny your ethnicity,even when your forefathers spoke Igbo and bore Igbo names and had the names of their villages in Igbo... You're only short-changing yourself. As other ethnic groups will always see you as Igbo. 13 Likes 1 Share |

The website isn't the official handle of RVSG this I have observed since this month. Rivers state from time immemorial has always consist of three grouping where every tribe falls 1) Igboid, 2) Ijoid, and 3) Ogoni that even the federal government recognises this. This is the reality on ground. But, it beats my imagination how far people would go in peddling false informations? Good job Chiwude for busting the yahoo boys. Lalasticlala front page things pls. This information is as legit as anything else. 5 Likes 3 Shares |

zuchyblink:Not just the westerners, even many south-southerners are guilty of this too. Don't be suprised if that website wasn't the handy work of insiders (Ijaw Bayelsa) boys, because all my suspicions points to that direction. Especially as the Ijaw dude Ajieretuwo has been gallivanting up and down since the fake information broke out. 2 Likes |

SonofDevil:The two links he shared are real, it is yours that is fake. The both websites are government website, the first owned by the federal government and the last according to the OP the real Rivers state website non-functional for a while now. Yours is a private owned website and was never quoted even in the federal government ministry of communication page. So, I will believe the authentic federal government website rather than your cloned one ending with net.ng. Thanks. 12 Likes 3 Shares |

Eastlink: No mind this son of DEVIL...... I am an Isoko boy born and brought up in Port Harcourt and RIVERS STATE IS AN IGBO STATE AND IF THE LIKES OF TONYEBARCANISTA ARE NOT CAREFUL THEY WOULD NEVER PRODUCE AN IJAW GOVERNOR. Since 1999 Rivers have been producing only Igboid Governors From Peter NwaOdili to Chibuike, and now Ezebunwo. By 2023 the Etche people will line up claim marginalization and will present a candidate that would win the Governorship. The Rivers Ijaws should look at the Ogoni people and learn. The Ogoni people that oppose anything Igbo have remained as strangers in their own land. No Governor, deputy or even secretary to the state Governor. Rivers State is Now full Igbo property.
