Anytime I want to laugh I go Ayegba Abdullahis wall on Facebook grin grin, Best fantasy story teller

Dude said igala is in 27 states of Nigeria
Lol! From a joker, the Ayegba dude is becoming a voice to reckon with in Igala land. He is now seen as an Igala leader, boosting much followers in their thousands, who go to Anioma and other Igbo Facebook pages to spew the trash Ayegba tells them.
Are you aware that this dude has published historical accounts of how Igala owns Igboland. When I mean historical accounts, I don’t mean palmflets. I mean bulky books with fraudulent claims. Until Igbos begin to tell their own expansion stories as the Bini’s, Igala, Ijaws, Yoruba’s etc are doing, Igbo heritage will continue to suffer external aggression.

I don't know why people can't see that Opobo is a cultural and historical landmark town left there by God. Any attempted attempt by anyone to attempt to attempt to use any forms of attempted attempt to disparage the land will be resisted.

Wanne opobo is for Igbos don't worry everything will follow its natural course when Yugoslavia broke up the Serbs new their territory,The Croats knew theirs and the rest was history, and if the ijaws claim opobo all we have the do is arm the local indigenes with sophisticated weapons , you can never beat an Igbo man I land dispute .

Ayegba is very smart to be fair to him. He has learnt well. At least from the Yoruba Ife fairytales, the Benin fraudulent ancestral claims and the Ijaw abracadabra history. He is currently trying as much and in the interest of his ethnic group to grab as much territory in an event of the dark times.

That's why I said don't worry when the time comes, don't force an unripe mango down, true nations are built by people with similar cultures and beliefs in the end the opobos will choose who they are similar to in culture and and language for better coexistence we will Just reopen history books and that's all..

While he has been using words and building castles in the air, Fulani has been removing all his people from the ground. Nnamdi Kana needs to teach the man some tactics.

The igala are a very strong tribe which you should talk about. The Igala is indegenous to 28 states, they might even be larger than the Yoruba which are in only 6 states.

They say Jaja of Opobo is igbo, but he ruled over Ijaw people.

Yes, Jaja was originally an Igbo man. The Ijaw society accepts anyone into our fold after the necessary rituals has been performed and an individual after performing the requirements can rise to become King if capable, and in the case of Jaja, he was one of the greatest rulers in precolonial Ijaw history.
God bless his soul.

We the Ijaws are never tribalistic

Because of Nnamdi Kanu who took a blackboard to Opobo and taught them Igbo history. The natives so loved the way of the Igbos and became Igbo cultured.

Also can one explain to me why majority of them in Opobo bear Jaja as name. It's rather strange seeing so many (unrelated) would be bearing the same name. Considering that the word "Jaja" does not mean anything and is only a poor corruption of something else.

Judging from the culture of Opobo and ibani or bonny it looks like Jaja was the one that performed Igbo acculturization on you guys rather than the other way round. Speaking of tribalism the igbos are known not to take tribal disputes, that is why our son Onoja, the son of Eri and Oboli established Igala and was the first Attah of Igala.

how can a man who was sold by his former kinsmen into slavery now being reclaimed as an Igbo man, what so ever a man give away in his lifetime, seizes to be his property.

The Ijaw are also known to practice ritual acculturation
(enculturation), whereby an individual from a different,
unrelated group undergoes rites to become Ijaw. An
example of this is Jaja of Opobo, the Igbo slave who rose
to become a powerful Ibani (Bonny) king in the 19th
century.
the igbos lost him.
History revisionist. Was Jaja a commodity? Did black Americans cease to be Africans? Did Jaja become the King of Bonny for a single day? You're clutching at straws.

On several Opobo Facebook pages there's been a renewed effort by Ijaw nationalists to rope in Opobo into the Ijaw fold and the people are not resisting. The people are been encouraged to do away with anything Igbo inclined in favor of Ijaw.

This is just a picture. Go to their page and see people who are bearing Igbo names tell you to your face they are Ijaw.

Bearing Igbo names doesn't make them Igbo. In the North it's not all those that bear Hausa names that are Hausa. Some of them are Northern Christians from other minority tribes.
