Sowore is an Apoi Ijaw man from Kiribo, there's also Arogbo and Tubutoru Ijaw clans in Ondo



So how is someone from Southern most part of Ondo state an Ijaw but someone from Egbema Rivers state or Anioma Delta state is not Igbo?

Op, there’s no tribe in Delta regarded as “Igbo”, not even the Ibo speaking part. What we have is Ika, spoken by the people of Agbor/Owa, Aniocha spoken by the people of Isele-Ukwu, Isele-Azagba, Ogwashi-Ukwu, Okpanam, Ibuzo etc

Keep quiet, mister
I am more Igbo than you are.
Stop all this Yoruba hate.
'Ibo' originated from the British pronunciation.
Aturu!


Afonja stop this stupidity and hate towards Igbo
You're an impostor and we know you.

read your statement again, so we are now Ibo because the European could not pronounce ''gb''?

The list ain't complete; there is no IDOMA, AGATU,ETILO,UTONKO and host of others all from Benue state on the list.

There is Idoma and Etulo on the list. Agatu is regarded as Northern Idoma. Utonkon people are called Ufia

The author has chosen not to list Agatu separately. Listing of ethnic groups, tribes and languages can be quite subjective

There is. The Ijaws in ondo usually mix Yoruba with their names.
I think Sowore is a good example.
I once had a colleague, Ayodele, a girl, who learnt Yoruba when she relocated to Lagos because they are ethnic Izon people from Ondo.

For those asking for Ijaw on the list, Izon is Ijaw. Ijaw people of Bayelsa State would rather call it Izon ..just like Ibos prefer Igbo.

Ijaws are tenant in Ondo state. Does the name Ese odo sounds like ijaw name?

Owe and Yagba are now part of KOGI and not KWARA as stated. Nice work though!!!

Ijaws are tenants in Ondo state. The name Ese odo is Yoruba Land given to them. They either assimilate or be bounced out. the only treaty signed by the British was with the Ilaje king.

Don't mind him. We only have Ijaw tenant in Ondo state. It wasn't long they came to settle at the river bank.

Re: Full List Of The 371 Tribes In Nigeria by wildernessVoice: 8:37pm On Mar 23, 2019
You need to do more research.
Some are names of towns not tribe.
No tribe like Bassa in Plateau but name of a town. The dominant tribe is Rukuba. From the town we derived Bassa L.G.A. that extend to kaduna boundaries in Saminaka and Kauru.

Yorubas are tenants in kwara(slaves to fulani), kogi and Benin( where they were sold by slaves by the landlords), the name Yoruba was given by the hausa masters
