Let me know if you see any Fedora "awa oil" oil cap in the below video. All you see are Igbo red war caps.

OPOBO NWAOTAM 2020/2021/OPOBO AT 150 CELEBRATION

I didn’t watch the video, but the red caps Igbos wear is a recent cultural identity. And not an igbo invention, it is borrowed from Morocco and other ethnic tribes in west Africa

Everyone to their ideals. Mine is abstract from IPOB and I don't deny it. I cringe each time I remember how we lost the little grounds we gain since the civil war politically and otherwise all thanks to MASSOB and Uwazuruike. IPOB emerge from MASSOB.
LOL grin
It is OK if you don't want to specify IPOB for some reasons which I don't know.
I won't coerce you.

But remember that we all witnessed MASSOB and Igbo territory was not their concern. The first person to break the barrier of Southern Nigeria being the barrier of Igbo land is MNK when he brought Umuezekoha of Benue state to peoples awareness. He made Ubani, Igwe nga/Opobo and Igwe Ocha/Port Harcourt a jingle although Port Harcourt never worked out.
Just for reference purposes.

Which IPOB. By introducing Judaism, quack history, toutism and terrorism into Igbo consciousness.





There is freedom of worship in Igboland the last time I checked, history is by and large subjective.....all you need to do is to issue rebuttals to any teachings of MNK you do not agree with. Ok, we should become pacifists and be rendered homeless by marauding Fulanis just like the hapless benue indigenes ! bros you no get case!

Ndigbo had no contact with Morocco and no other West African people wear red caps. The few that do and others in East Africa do it as a result of Nollywood influence (one day we will talk about it here).

Ok, admittedly he had his faults but his attitude of always wanting to force his ideals on our throats is my problem with him. Always finding enemies and saboteurs in the quest for Biafra.
IPOB is focused on things that have less affects on Ndigbo.

For me I’m a realist. And I believe we are faced with a lot of distractions that the Biafran struggle has blinded us to see. We’ve been relegated in every sphere in this country. Partly by government and largely by our own attitudes to fight battles that isn't our business. We never put our interest first that’s why we’ve become the laughing stock in PDP. We need a group like the INC or Great Benin Descendants in Igboland. One who's focus is fighting for everything Igbo interest in Nigeria. Territorially, culturally and politically. Not Ohaneze and not IPOB/MASSOB.

Igbo interest alone and nothing else.

All our lives the we were made to believe Igboland starts and ends in the southeast,i just watched a video of opobo language it shocked me me that i cam understand their dialect better than Owerri dialect it is pure central Igbo the same as the one spoken in obigbo were i grew up ,later they will say Igboland is landlocked thanks to ipob,an Igbo only Biafra is 100 percent viable .

Ignore the Eastlink guy, him and his group of marauding directionless rivals made Intra-Igbo rivalry a thing on Nairaland. While other groups were banding together, they made mocking different Igbo state a sports and washed their dirty pants in public. I witnessed this crass behaviour cringing for years.

You see the concept of making reference to 17/18/19th century history with facts is one thing that I admire that is happening. It disputes all facts.

If not for MNK, most of us or even them won't go hunting for these evidence.

Against this background, I want to say, your swords must be really shinny from murdering all these r..ards with facts and sharpening same swords with their bones.

When Jaja was a slave, he was owned by Igbos in an Igbo town known as Ubani. You must have noticed that the canoe houses in Opobo have Igbo names. That was a fantastic twist

Pls for learning sake, can you name the names of the war canoe houses to see which one has Ibo names attached to it

Peterside is also not an Igbo name, yet his Igboness is not in doubt and he personally proclaimed.

Ijaws in Ubani were mere migrant porters and menial labourers. Nothing more nothing less

We can't use because of useless Ego and surrender our land and people to British porters like you people.
Better start making preparations of how to return to Ashanti and Sierra leone because I am sure the Fulani have realised from today's threads that you Ijaw people are not indigenous to southern Nigeria and as such have no ancestral claim to any of the land you occupy here.
That is the repercussion of dragging land with Ndigbo, you get exposed for who you really are

This shows the true side of an Igbo person. As at 2015/2017 you were claiming that Niger-deltans are your brothers and indigenous to the delta. But notoriously, here you are today trying to grab their land, not only their land but their history.

You cannot hide your true personality for long

Goan tell that nonsense to the Jaja of Opobo, not me. You always have a story of how one Rivers community used to be Ijaw before they started speaking Igbo! The same wacky story for Obigbo and co. I don't blame you guys shaaa. If Igbo leaders were meeting fire for fire with you guys, everybody would have known his space and maintained his lane by now..

No matter our disagreements with MNK, his methods or the range of his own map, we can't ignore the FACT that without him and his followers there won't be this Igbo revival we are witnessing.
Him and Achebe are the reason for what we are witnessing today.
We must give honor to whom honor is due

Of course he is playing a key role especially when it comes to firing up the Igbo base, as it were.

But he lacks c drain leadership qualities that disqualifies him from being the overall leader of the struggle. The council of elders would have been the ideal leaders of the struggle while Kanu man's the radio station and evangelism arm.
Th council of elders would have had more success in coming up or endorsing a proper roadmap to achieving Biafra, and ensuring the right people are in charge of the appropriate duties.
The council of elders would have covered IPOB with their personal honour which would have made it more difficult for IPOB members to be killed like rats with no consequences to the perpetrators of such crimes.

The council of elders would have attracted more international listening ears in the corridors of world power e.t.c

pepple is a distortion of perekule just as opobo is a distortion of opubo, and jaja is to jubo jubogha the whitemen couldn't pronounce those names so they change it to what they can pronounce
So because Jide" means "standup" in Yoruba, it cannot mean "Hold This" in Igbo? Oga, from all available accounts, Ijaw only came into the Niger-Delta courtesy of British ships from Ashanti. Ijaw is not indigenous to Niger-Delta. Deal with it. From trying to grab people's ancestral lands, Ijaw will end up fighting not to be thrown back into the ocean.

How come the Ijaws in Ubani as you said were not sold as slaves then but ibos.
How can ibos in Ubani sell their own kinsmen as slaves then.

Truth of the matter is that you ibos can't lay claim to people who don't want you.
Your claim of them being ibos is neither here nor there.

Bonny Opobo and all other riverine settlements are Ijaws.
