I have new material on Nembe people of Bayelsa which shows Nembe Brass may actually be Igbos. Ijaw brethren shall we begin grin grin grin


Who are the Nembe people. Since the Internet breaking video of Igbo speaking youths attacking the king of Brass' palace investigation has been ongoing to ascertain of the Nembe/Brass people have a connection to the Igbo race. And the discoveries have been interesting.

Our findings so far as research and investigation continues.


The Nembe people are descended from mostly Arochukwu. This is not wishful thinking it is very likely the truth. Let us look at some facts hitherto unknown to people.

1) Virtually everything of great traditional importance done in Nembe is done only after inquisition from Arochukwu!

2) The Nembe revere the python! Traditionally the python is most revered of all the cultural symbols. And this was on instructions from Arochukwu after the other symbols of worship failed them. Remember that in one British voyagers account of Bonny he narrated how the Brass people celebrated the "long juju" of Arochukwu.

3) The Nembe people use a traditional 4 days of the week.

4) Just like the Kalabari many Brass/Nembe refuse to accept they are Ijaws, both young and old. This has brought consternation between they and the Ijaw(Izon) expansionist.

5) Due to their Igbo heritage (likely Arochukwu) the leopard hat (okpu agu) is a permanent feature in Nembe!

6) Egbesu worship which is the heart and core of Izon culture has been observed to be absent amongst the Nembe. The Nembe have distinct beliefs.

7) Many are fluent Igbo speakers.

1) Nembe youths carrying the "Ebebege". A key spiritual symbol. Observe the dressing of the youths. (Forget the Ijaw clown who said Nembe-Ijaw there).


2 and 3) Nembe youths in their boat regatta. Okpu agu everywhere. Recent discoveries have uncovered the boat tradition is not exclusive to the Ijaw as projected. Aboh kingdom of old fought wars and policed their waters effectively with huge gunboats. We are still researching on gun boat use amongst the Ndoki people.

About Wakrike (Okrika)

Every Wakrike group you walk into they keep murmuring on being owners of Port Harcourt. The consistency with which they claim the area amongst themselves would make one think they are being honest.

The status of Port Harcourt is well documented though despite any land grabbing moves. It is only the stupid act of the Ikwerres that allows the Wakrike claim Port Harcourt. A simple adage says : when there is infighting within the fold a stranger would take the inheritance. That is simply what is playing out. Udo nu.

The area of research we are focusing on now is why the Izon and Nembe don't understand each other. We observed there are similarities but we also know despite these similarities they are distinct people. It would seem the Nembe are descended from Igbo and Izon mix of cultures mainly, with the Igbo being the bulk of the mix, as well as other cultures contributing too. Hence the distinction and drift from Izon, and resulting closeness to Igbo. But it is all hypothesis until proven with more information.

Watch the Ijaw language being spoken in Opobo. Very interesting language that any nwafor on the street of Alaigbo can understand. https://www.facebook.com/Opobiansblog/videos/193489102621738/?app=fbl

2) Opobo king. What is he holding in his hand?

3) Look at what desperate revisionism can cause. [First Paragraph] Amaigbo umuduruoha is now in Ijawland embarassed maybe because of ama there. Amaigbo it's time to join IYC embarassed

At this juncture am not sure there's any homogeneous Izon LGA anywhere in Nigeria. Ijaw will be so ripped apart when the time comes.

Minorities of SS are just lucky to have Igbos as neighbors. We have enough evidence to claim most of Rivers State, half of Delta and parts of Bayelsa and Edo states as our territories. However, we are business minded in nature which now makes small ethnic groups like ijaws to be encroaching on our lands.

Another side to the argument wink


If Aro is this far spread over a large area with several "descendants" everywhere, they may be just as numerous as Nri. One would think the Nri are overwhelming numerous. Though I recognize that this areas are not huge in population : Okrika, Ubani, Nembe. So perhaps Nri still takes it wink

Ijaws won't know what will hit them. They should fervently pray against Nigeria's division. They would have to conquer Igbo Nation militarily before they will form any form of government.

Ijaw Nation pray hard.
