Ijaw Can Never Be Biafra - Ijaw Youths by Nobody: 6:37am On Dec 02, 2018 |
we igbos need to stop attaching ourselves to the south south.. I'm really ashame of our igbo tribe.why can't we leave the south south alone, are we that parasitic? Ijaw youths have warned pro-Biafran groups such as the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra and the Indigenous People of Biafra to desist from including Ijaw territories in the map of Biafra. The Ijaw youths, under the auspices of the Ijaw Youth Council Worldwide, said on Monday that there was no time the Ijaw ethnic nationality consented to be part of the Biafra Republic. The IYC, in a statement by its spokesman, Daniel Dasimaka, dismissed the claim credited to the pro-Biafran organisations that the Ijaw nation was part of Biafra. It stressed that the Ijaw people had never been Biafrans, saying that the old Eastern Region was a political contraption that enslaved the Ijaw people. It added that the old Eastern Region was created by those who also orchestrated ‘this miscarriage of a state called Nigeria.’ The group noted that the Ijaws had never, in any way, been against the genuine aspirations of all peoples, including the MASSOB and IPOB, to attain self-determination or secession, but they should not drag the ethnic nationality into their geographical expression. The statement read in part, “The Ijaw are a distinct ethnic nation, even before the 1914 amalgamation, that has its own dreams, wishes and aspirations that should not be submerged as footnotes in any other peoples’ struggles. “We, the Ijaw people, are not Biafrans. Therefore, if or when any Ijaw person or group feels a sense of allegiance to Biafra and speak in its favour, let it be known that such statements are the personal opinions of such persons. They do not reflect the thoughts, views and wishes of the entire Ijaw nation and the Niger Delta people.” The IYC also warned “overzealous members of IPOB” to stop further insults on respected Ijaw elders and leaders, particularly critical stakeholders like AnnKio Briggs “who had committed so much to the Niger Delta,” stressing that such insults would no longer be tolerated. It further said that the Ijaw struggle for self-determination predated the Biafra agitation. The group stated, “It is a known historical fact that a year before the world got to hear of the term Biafra Republic, the Ijaw led by the late Major Isaac Boro of blessed memory had declared a Niger Delta Republic in pursuit of the emancipation of the Niger Delta people which the progenitor of Biafran, late Col. Odumegwu Ojukwu, of blessed memory, fought against as the then governor of the old Eastern Region when the going was good with him in the Nigerian state. “It is also on record that a year before MASSOB was founded, the IYC, through the Kaiama Declaration, had affirmed ‘our commitment to joint struggle with the other ethnic nationalities in the region for self-determination.’ “We express our solidarity with all the peoples, organisations and ethnic nationalities in Nigeria and elsewhere who are struggling for self-determination and justice.” Copyright PUNCH.

All this af*nja Muslim miscreants displaying their stupidities all over Nairaland is uncalled for. This op must be a low life bungler who derives joy in seeing divisions among the Southerners. I don't want to go further cos today is my worship day, let me let it slide today. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

solutionmi:what is there to speak about, they don't want us.. Just because ikwerre behaves like igbos doesn't make them igbo. Just because esan behaves like Benin doesn't make them Benin. Just because itshekiri behaves like Yoruba doesn't make them Yoruba. They want their own ethnic group, I've never ever seen or heard of any southern tribes claiming Biafra, never. So why the force attaché? 1 Like |

Yes ..An ijaw man would tell you that first and foremost an ijaw and then a Nigerian..this constrasted with our own stance that we were first and foresmost Nigerian be4 we were lbo and yoruba respectively..kanu and his gangs should discarded the idea of session..because the south south would see the biafran has a foreign aggression..(as invader).they are the minority and their interest is to control their resources by hemselves..t |

The interests of the south south is paramount in their minds ..not biafra..80% control of their resources that is they want..they are the minority ..fear of domination by the south east made the Northern decided to fight the war with the south east..oneness and united Nigerians that should be our priorities task |

Before any Igbo attacks Ijaw for this OP uselessness. Please know Ijaws have no hand in the bigotry, and hate. The OP is a Yoruba troll that tribal bait. Do not fall for his useless behavior that seems to be prominent with him and his people. I'm Ijaw and I'm asking you people to please, if you guys do fall for his tribal bait, please make sure to exclude Ijaws from it. He's yoruba doing tribal baiting, attack the right people and exclude us from it. Thank you. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

Yyeske: Who controls Nigeria's media? Oh I'm not Ijaw because I don't ascribe to whatever delusion Yorubas have about Ijaws. Sorry for your ignorance. Ijaws do not have hate nor carry hate. I don't know why you people keep thinking everyone is like you people. And yes OP is a Yoruba troll who goes by several accounts and whom been opening several topics this week starting multiple altercations. You people should find something better to do instead of tribal baiting. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

The year this article was made 2017. It's December 2018, other than to start unnecessary tribal attacks why was this topic made? Which ethnicity is very prominent in starting tribal baiting on this topic yet someone thinks it's wrong to direct them against attacking Ijaw. Useless person 4 Likes
