I'm in Bonny right now,every single person I discuss with concern this very topic about the Igbos claiming them ,they all get upset that they Ijaw people.
I'm happy they knew they root very well.
My friend grandma was educated me that the reason why they are speaking Igbo is because when slave trade was on ,they never wanted the slaves and the people they are doing business with to understand their language that's why they hide their language and started speaking their business partners language.
So incase of any secret information the slaves n the business partners will not understand
General Ditari: King Jaja went with loyalists and their families from Bonny to form Opobo.
All jaja children has Ijaw mother.
And he himself was spiritually arranged and acculturated into Ijaw first.

We're tired of this senseless lies.

Bonny and Opobo uses Amayanabo as King title just like Nembe in Bayelsa also Brass in Bayelsa same with Kalabari Ijaws Rivers, Okrika Ijaw too uses Amayanabo but never Eze.
Bonny and Opobo are under all Ijaw socia-cultural organizations.
Of which the three largest ones are Ijaw National Congress INC Ijaw Youth Council IYC and the Lovers of Ijaw Nation Organization LINO.
But not even in any Ibo own.
The Central dialect formation project being arranged by the Lovers of Ijaw Nation Organization LINO today, of which will be created by taking of equal words from each of the Ijaw clans under IYC nd INC and LINO and it is joined together and Ijaw have Central dialect.
Will put an end to that nonesense.

Each clan will still have their different clans dialects and this will just be Central and it will give Ijaw movie industry fully balanced, music industry fully balanced and the language teaching sector all over the Ijaw Nation.
These are the clans under Ijaw Nation.
Only Egbema clan alone have over 3 hundred and fifty towns, villages and settlements under it.

Apoi West clan in Ondo state will take their share of Ijaw word from Apoi East clan in Bayelsa.

The Ijaw Republic people.

Senseless and Malnourished ogogoro mixed with schnapps drinkards.
These Ijaw miscreants will never cease to amaze people.
A republic where everybody will be drinking Kai Kai and not willing to do any work, Is that one a country?

God bless the Ijaw Nation
One Tribe,
One Ancestor
One Ijaw.

The Ijaw Republic Flag.

God bless the Ijaw Republic.

God bless General Ditari.

dead Thread for a dead people.

This is the truth

Anything kingdom that have kings is not related to Ibos even anambra are not Ibos, ibo identify was carved during biafra war when greedy Ojukwu wanted the oil of South South for himself

True.
They thought us that in history in the University too.
Igbos don't use Kings in d days before whites came.

Op we don hear
Igbos should stop responding to such threads,they are not really fighting for their IjAw nation they are just doing this to upset igbos and bring division. That's it..

Captain8 come and post this.

OP you should be more concerned about your education than bonny being either Igbo or ijaw region.

Whenever I see these threads I become motivated to do more. I will get back to you guys my Ijaw brethren.

God blessed you benawei,,,,, hope those flat heads will listen this time....

we don't have to bothered ourselves to bring division between Ijaws and Igbos, because Ijaw and igbo were already not one but two ethnicities...........


or are you going to forced unity on us

Have you ever see Ijaw person begging with plate everywhere before?
Or do you see Ijaw carrying drugs to run out of their area.

Ibo are like vagabonds have no reasonable home.

Do you ever see Ijaw add ibo areas to Ijaw Republic?
Never!! But you always see ibos begging for Ijaws to be in their foolish Biafra Republic, and you say Ibos are not jealous of Ijaw.

All this are eternal lies you know that OP which of the Bonny Or Opobo did you went to my in-laws are from there and they are proud of their igbo lineage anytime anywhere go get your facts right with visual evidence.

Funny thread. The good thing is that na wikipedia and politics nairaland section Ijaw landgrab madness end. Another mental patient is already proposing AM Ijaw channel . Where dem want see content? And can a population of 1.5m Ijaws make it sustainable, abi dem think say na amnesty money dem dey share? If there isn't a single Ijaw channel in ordinary Nigeria, na DSTV go carry the yeye idea?

A tiger (Igbo) does not to prove its tigritude. Only worms (Ijaws) do.

So after all the Ijaw republic noise and map drawing na nairaland the idea end .

The noise didn't stop Bonny and Opobo from speaking Igbo, neither did it push Ijaws into the top 8 major ethnic groups in Naija.

Ijaw republic is simply an idea by kids on nairaland destined to end in the dustbin
