We know how you migrated to Ese Odo in Ondo state, make Una no do pass Una self Una dey live there peacefully and una get all right to live there but if 9ja breaks today, no single part of Ese Odo wey no go dey under Yoruba Nation. As I speak now, in some part of Ogun creek there are some Ijaws who have migrated to that place now, and they are giving birth and as well aggregating their community, we welcome them and maybe in the next 500 years to come, they will start claiming ownership if they do not integrate properly. That Yoruba Anthem has being passed, if not for the Nigeria government using their constitution, una go get the mind to even protest against am before?

All this Argument is not necessary,any Ijaw in Bonny & Opobo who is not okay with it can relocate back to Bayelsa where they emigrated from

You are just capping online.

Talk is cheap.

When the United Nations Security Council shows up in Nigeria to conduct a referendum you can decide your next line of action then.

Typing vigorously on your phone won't help you.

NeverBrokeAgainG:

This is a generally know fact.
You said it all

Go and tell it to the Ijaw National Affairs Commissioner Patrick Erasmus and the Ijaw Youth Council President Worldwide.
Timothy Peter Igbifa.
Both are Obolo-Ijaws.

You are more confused than Buhari.
Tell Sowore from Apoi West clan, that he is not Ijaw. And tell both the Ijaw National Affairs Commissioner and the Ijaw Youth Council President Worldwide both from Obolo that they are not Ijaws.

Lmao. Sowore is a Yoruba man even with tribal mark. Anyways Apois (which I highly doubt will follow any Ijaw nation) and arogbos can do whatever they like, just know that the entire coast is Ilaje territory and a NO-GO Area.

... Anywyas, everyone have said their own.

Ekpeitit:
Why would anyone nor hate a group of people whose only recognised profession is armed robbery and other crime?
If e pain you too much go to any river near you and do what most frustrated people do.

but I don't think this issue concerned you Ibibios or Efik na, so why wasting your data on Ijaw matter na?

Go and tell it to Sowore from Apoi and the Ijaw National Affairs Commissioner Patrick Erasmus and the Ijaw Youth Council President Worldwide.
Timothy Peter Igbifa.
Both are Obolo-Ijaws.

proeast:


You ogogoro drinkers are so funny, those poisonous drinks is really messing you guys up.

You're actually using Isreali example against Igbos? Between you guys and Igbos, which people actually share similarities with Jews?

Which people are innovative and creative?
Which people are all over the world in large numbers?

Aside our great human resources, Igboland in both SE and SS has more oil and gas resources as well as solid minerals and arable lands, which ones do you ogogoro drinkers have?

The last time you ijaws tried to fight a war, Ojukwu sent some policemen and it took them only 12 days to subdue you all and arrest your men including Boro. Now, contrast that with Igbos that against the rest of Nigeria, Britain, Russia, Egypt, Chad, Niger and Arab League yet the war lasted 3 years!!

Even in the next 1000 years, ijaws will never be our mate because you're too small.

Nigerians having the privilege to spend some decades with Ndigbo in the same country is like a Dog that stumbled on a rare gem. The dog won't know the worth but lick it.
After we are gone, they will tell their grand children that they once shared the same country with the mighty Ndigbo and their children will be like "papa did you actually touch them with your hands?"

Ijaws are the present deputy governor of Rivers state, and also the Secretary to the state government.

See as u are confusing your own self, you already said there are no Ijaws in Rivers state.

I have Yoruba tribal marks too, because I was born in Yoruba area.
come and claim me as Yoruba

My Ijaw name is Ebi, and my Yoruba name is even taiwo, being the first of twins,
Oya come and claim me as Yoruba.

We don't make noise just pray that Nigeria doesn't break up

Don't mind those drunks.
They think it's by shouting. There is a reason why they say empty vessels make the loudest noise.

Like you said "they should just pray Nigeria doesn't break up"

if you called that assult propaganda then you are sick in brain,,,,,,,,a slaughter that made even una onakankanfo to speak fire.........or is it the IDP camp Yorubas are still in?

OIL RIVERS STATE
…Why Ibeno opted out - IBENOS DENY BEING IJAW

The National Coordinator of Ikpoto Akwa Ibom, one of the several groups campaigning for Etteh, Mr. Nsima Uwak, however, says the Ijaws know that Ibeno is not an Ijaw territory and cannot, therefore, lay claim to it. According to him, Ibeno was founded by Mbang, a brother to Ukpabang, the progenitor of Oron Nation. “This informs the wide acceptability of Etteh among the Oron,” Uwak said.

Ijaws can claim for Africa.

BKayy:

Don't mind those drunks.

Like you said "they should just pray Nigeria doesn't break up"

Ibo should go and claim Ijaw areas physical and remove them from all Ijaw tribe organizations, and associations they belong then we know.
All your frustrations end on Nairaland.
Landlocked dot circle Biafra Republic.
