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!

@Fratermathy, ur list is incomplete, how abt Agbarho, Orerokpe, Udu ,Edjeba, Ekpan and Kiagbodo ?These areas re also densely populated by the Urhobo nation too.

I believe that if not for the unwritten agreement among the political gladiators in Delta State, only the Urhobo nation can go the whole hog of deciding who becomes the governor. I know they can also be found in Edo, Ekiti, Ondo, and Plateau states as migrants. Heard there re still indigenous Urhobos in Bayelsa,can anyone with an idea confirm this? Fratgermathy, Efewestern, Sanchez over to u guys..

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
This boy again. Besides, did you mention 20 million? Ijaws, 20 million in this same Nigeria I'm done laughing! Ijaws are scattered like bird seeds but that does not support your claim.

Bayelsa is not 100% Ijaw like you claimed. There is an Urhobo speaking people in Bayelsa and I bet you don't know this. In addition, Ijaws do not constitute 30% in Delta state. You have the Urhobos and Itsekiris before the Ijaws, so where did you manufacture 40% from?

To sum it up? Those in Akwa Ibom are mere settlement dwellers and that of Ondo is but a fraction and in all honesty, I am glad you didn't cook figures for those.

While I understand you love to make noise, you are so not clearly bright enough because you wouldn't post some shocking, unverified statistics backing your Ijaw postulation.

It is the height of embarrassment for a so called Ijaw lad to claim Bayelsa is 100% Ijaw.

That is not the issue at hand. Whether or not you are Igbo is your personal dilemma and has nothing to do with Urhobos, who share nothing with Igbos.

I am Igbo and Biafran, but I reject your statement. There should be pre qualification tests to consider who wants to join Biafra. For now, those minorities should stick together and form ND republic.

LOL! Such an ironic turn of events.

In fact, where are your colleagues in Igbo "shortselling"? Pazienza, Nonaira, Ikology, Freemancipation, etc? (please mention the others)

Come and do what you guys do best here. I have been expecting you! I trust that Pazienza will come up with one new limitation of the Urhobos, and then leave the fight to be fought by Nonaira1. I enjoy sessions like this. It's been a while. Where are you guys?

CLOWNS!

It will interest you the more to know that Urhobo is never forming any republic with Igbos. Urhobo inclusion in their struggle/map might be for a cause which we that are non members are not privy to. Urhobo is a great nation and should not use IPOB struggles to belittle the great Igbo nation. Using your unions to issue statements is very understandable, however what I detest is making it sound is if you will pursued from your ancestral lands. Nnamdi Kanu movement should become a national one for progressive Nigerians desiring a change. Casting aspersions to him is not necessary because all of us desire a restructured Nigeria.

Well... I appreciate your civility. However, you should understand that one of the reasons why these rebuttals are seeming more common is due to the politics of the day. Stands have to be made, lines have to be drawn, allegiances have to be negotiated, etc. Those behind the statements know what they are doing.

Did I or did I not say it?

I said it last month that by next month we would have another announcement from urhobo on how they aren't Biafrans. Never seen a tribe that is such an attention seeking wh0re like urhobo.

The funniest part of it is that after each announcement from them IPOB or any biafran group pays them zero mind. You would think that would told them they don't care or even wish to care about urhobo but no....attention seeking like a motherfucker urhobo choose...very pathetic!!

Anyway, watch Next month we'll get another announcement by them and IPOB would ignore them yet again. No be the pattern for the past 2 years now. Tufiakwa!!!

No one gives them the time of day other than few people on NL.

Not once have any Biafran group replied them, not even ONE time despite their numerous attention seeking.

There whole "Biafrans want us" is from an outdated map made by Massob that Massob itself do not even use anymore.

That's how pathetic and desperate they are to be noticed.

Anyway next month we should get another noise from them so let's await their next attention seeking shall we
