SirToby:

But few months ago, you guys were Atikulating, and Nnamdi Kanu openly campaigned for Atiku and requested to give Atiku free advise on how to reclaim his mandate. Is that not a sign of confusion and frustration ?
However, I clearly used Lagos and ABJ as a case study, but you choose to limit your argument on Lagos alone. Nna, the Obsession with Lagos is real.

It's really annoying when you guys pretend nairaland posters are tribal spokesperson. NOBODY here holds any weight in their village much less a whole region.
Folks are simply stating THEIR opinion. But some of you seem to always forget that and be taking these opinions to heart

You should understand that Rivers State is not all about Ikwerre,

he's talking of Obigbo

Obigbo was just a market where Igbos ( no clan imparticular ) used to converge to sell their food during the colonial era. The reason why it has no particular Igbo clan name . It is not Nnewi, or Ngwa or Awka but OBIGBO meaning place for Igbo business .. There was an Obigbo even in Lagos which has become OYINGBO today . It is cos of the OYINGBO word , the Rivers state government changed the name from Obigbo to OYIGBO. Ofcourse, no government can change the name of native people. Oyigbo had no natives.. Oyigbo is also different from Ndoki . The Igbos of Oyigbo today are all migrant Igbos from all over Igbo land . Ndoki native land is just under Oyigbo lga.. Ndoki is not the Oyigbo we are discussing .

What ever you drank is strong and bad to your health.

Obiigbo was never an empty land, it belongs to indigenous Ndoki and Asa tribes of the Igbo nation. It was originally part of old East central state until in 1975 when mamar Nasir boundary adjustment commission who were determined to strip Igboland of all oil producing but Igbo speaking lands , took Obigbo away from old East central state and put it in Rivers state, where the Ijaw dominated but Igbophobic Rivers state government renamed it to Oyigbo.
All the villages and towns in the LGA belongs to Ndoki and Asa people who were separated from their kins in current Ukwa East and West LGA of Abia state by an FG hell bent on balkanizing Igboland after the war. Egbema suffered same fate, as the oil producing part was carved from East central to old Rivers state, leaving the then non Oil producing parts in Imo state.

Egbema and Oyigbo(Asa and Ndoki) because of the fact that their people are still in SE(Abia and Imo), are the only Igbo speaking groups in Rivers state who still identify as proud Igbos.

Oyigbo has nothing to do with your Oyingbo, Ndiigbo has no link with Yorubas.

I have listed the Asa and Ndoki towns that make up Oyigbo LGA. If you are not an indigene of any of these towns, then you are a migrant in Oyigbo. And all the listed towns are Igbo speaking.

Oyigbo/Obigbo was a town migrant worker town, built on Asaland. The original settlers of the area were the Asa. The people that came to settle Oyigbo were primarily hinterland Igbo. It is why the local variety of Igbo spoken there is markedly different from that found within native Echie, Asa, Ngwa and Ndoki communities. Oyigbo is sometimes thought of as "Ndokiland", though the land is really Asa.

Keep quiet. Obigbo belongs to Imo state and they have been in imo state until the useless Awusa-Afonja govt forcefully added them to rivers state and then changed their name from Obigbo to Oyigbo.
Stop being a sharp fool
