I saw one of the recent interviews in which Nnamdi Kanu said Delta is a part of Biafra. In fact, he went further to precisely mention Isoko as well. When he mentioned Delta, he didn't say "Delta Igbo". He said "Delta State", a state in which Urhobos are the most populous ethnic group. What more proof do we need for forceful inclusion into Biafra?

You may not like that fact we have been vocal in our rebuttal but then, no one likes the fact that they are included in a struggle that is not theirs, a struggle built on hate speeches and "overflogged vitriolic".

No one cares that you've been vocal in your rebuttals; many groups in the SS and SE have spoken out against IPOB. The problem I have with people like you is that, even before Kanu's interviews, you were going around proclaiming your exclusion from the Biafran nation, not just once but many times so all of this noise can't just be because of his interviews undecided. It's well documented that I, personally speaking, do not want your people anywhere near our Igbo independent country, and there's many that agree with me here. However, seeing the Urhobos, in particular, continuously coming out to reiterate the same rhetoric is getting tiresome now. We get it, Kanu has responded you in kind. Now, what's the problem?

The problem I have with the article is the claim that small Urhobo with 1 senatorial district in Delta state is the 4th largest ethnic nation ahead of Ijaws (60% in Rivers, 100% Bayelsa, 40% Delta, and also in Akwa Ibom and Ondo states- undisputed 4th largest with 20million population) and the fifth largest tribe Tiv (Dominant in Benue and also present in Taraba state)


N/B
I ignore trolls

Tonye, let's not get into a banter over who's the bigger "minority". Any group has a right to claim whatever and be well justified for doing so too until there comes a time when we will have a honest census in this nation.

But your claim that Ijaws occupy 40% of Delta is outrightly wrong. Ijaws in Delta share a senatorial district of just 1.2m persons with Itsekiris and Isokos, of which Isokos are the most populous in that district.

Secondly, that an ethnic group is spread over states doesn't mean they have more population than others. Population density doesn't correlate with geographical spread. There may be 10 persons occupying a series of villages that spread into 20 states and on the other hand, 10,000 persons may occupy a single village in a single state. As you would agree, Urhoboland has densely populated urban areas such as Effurun-Warri axis, Sapele, Ughelli, Abraka, etc.

In any case, let's not get carried away by the banter of "most populous minority" in full view of the so called "majorities". Just accept that the logic you are attempting to use in this instance is quite flawed, regardless of whether or not Urhobo is 4th, 5th, 6th or even 10th most populous ethnic group in Nigeria!

The other day it was "Isoko1stson or Isokofirstson". I'm awaiting "Urhobofirstson".

No real Anioma, Urhobo or Isoko person will create such usernames. The Irony of this is that all such usernames are pro-Biafra! cheesy. If I should ask simple questions about the places you claim to be from, you'd all falter and run.

You guys should stick your noses to your regions and leave my peripheral view please.

You don't seem to get it. These rebuttals are coming from different interest groups in Urhobo nation, not a single one. Just the way you guys have various persons and groups agitating for Biafra, so too do we have various persons and groups coming out to negate Urhobo's inclusion in it. In fact, whether or not IPOB or Kanu included Urhobo in Biafra, it is always important to set the records straight for the sake of posterity. We have the inalienable right to deny whatever we want, even if we choose to do so every blessed day. Just the way you guys have the right to agitate for your Igboid Biafra everyday too.

Urhobos are not trouble makers. If some unscrupulous persons didn't create the impressions, drew the maps, or outrightly included us in Biafra, we wouldn't have the moral justification for these rebuttals. And until such a time when the records are set straight by IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu or other Biafran interest groups, we would always have the more justification to keep coming at you guys like this. Any Urhobo can come up and leverage on the fact that it was you guys or one of yours that included Urhobo into your struggle in order to give a rebuttal. No one can stop such person(s) from doing so.

What will Biafra do for the Urhobos that Nigeria has not and cannot do? The system is the same. The majority-minority argument will be there. Resource control won't solve all the fundamental problems. So what more do you guys have to offer?
