truthonmission:
who will now own warri? next u will ask for ur family to be given a state. niger data are funny.

Kowor:
Give reasons in words less than 100.

bolaino:
I want to use this medium to appeal to the Federal Government Of Nigeria to please consider the creation of an Indigenous state comprising solely of both the Urhobo and Isoko States Respectively. as Bayelsa was created. I believe it is within our constitutional rights as Ethnic nationalities with distinct cultural and social roots in this country. to call on the FG to recognize our uniqueness and create a separate state from Delta state compromising of Urhobo and Isoko.

cheruv:
Guy the only people that can challenge you in Delta are the Anioma... Help us get a state, and then Delta becomes an urhobo state,with warri as it's capital.

chriskosherbal:
Do you think as a nation what we need now is creation of states? hmmmmm well you may have your reasons.

bolaino:
Urhobo/Isoko combined together own a lot of landmass in Delta State. but yet we are still made to beg the other smaller tribes on our land for allocation and jobs. it is not right.

9jasite:



We dont need a new state..
...they should send ijaws to bayelsa and Anioma to Anambra
DELTA IS URHOBO AND URHOBO IS DELTA

TonyeBarcanista:
I support 100%! Ijaws in Delta, Edo and Ondo have been agitating for Toru-ibe state.

Enough is enough

LordAdam7:
We don't need more states in the SS. We don't even need more states in Nigeria.

We need to restructure this country to get six geopolitical regions, not have more states.

Urhobos cannot always have their way in Delta State. Urhobos have had 8 years with Ibori. Itshekiris have had 8 years with Uduaghan. It's now the turn of the Aniomas to have 8 years with Okowa. The governorship should then rotate to the Ijaws and Isokos before the Urhobos get it back.

Deltans can use the diversity in the state to create a model state in Nigeria. But everyone is still playing tribal politics. If them one share Delta, e go reach like 5 places. Anioma go dey one side, Ijaws go dey one side, Itshekiris go dey one side, Isoko go dey one side, because I sure say them no go join Urhobos them. Even the minority groups like the Kwale them go dey grumble if them attach them to any of the split states.

bolaino:
bros. the Tribalism has gotten too much in the state. and Isoko is willing to join Urhobo in this quest. I know because I am a member of the APC in Delta State and I have a strong grassroots following here. so we believe this is the solution to the impending crisis that is coming. I will be shocked if ijaw and itshekiri don't start fighting by January ending but I would be more shocked if the FG think all this is just talk.

9jasite:



First let me state that you are one intellectual on Nairaland i respect.
that said there is no distinction btw Urhobo & Isoko. Lastly Ijaws are too greedy and selfish. Why on Earth should the SSG and deputy governor hail from the same place.

orunto27:
And call it UZOBO OR ISOBO STATE.

AnambraDota:
Isoko of 2 local government stretching from Ofagbe to Iyede and Oleh with a population of less than 10000 people, 2 bank branches, no industry.
[b]
Urhobo of 4 local government [/b]with a population of less than 50000 with Ughelli as the biggest city, skeletal economic activity, army of jobless youth boozing, gambling and cult activities.

What are u smoking?

tit:
We Isokos prefer to go with our Ukwuani sisters.
The Urhobos can form state with the itshekiri.
They both know their way.

PDJT:


So you be Isoko?
I have not met an Isoko person, from your estimate what could be the total population of Isoko people?

Isoko's alone across Nigeria would be over 3 to 6 Million persons. We are mostly found in cities- Warri, PH, and Lagos
