Igboid: When you stoop so low to attack someone that should be mates with your child, you will only end up insulting yourself! It doesn't show class! I was embarrassed when I saw some Igbos joining issues with these people, and it is so degrading! Believe me, we Igbos are probably the only group that is standing against the hegemonic domination of Nigeria by certain people using Islam as their rallying call. If we play our cards well, all these small tribes ought to be ones seeking to attach to us since they already know they're too small to resist the forces coming against them. So we should remain focused and diplomatic. A dog that goes after every bone thrown at it will never get to its destination. As for the Igede, we have no issues with them and neither do we have any with the Idoma. The argument is between them and we should be spectators in this. They are free to be whatever they chose to be. It is non of our business! 5 Likes |

In democracy, they vote people to represent the general public although don't they represent, they don't just allow one to come and represent. If TIV are the majority in that state, I don't see those other tribes winning except a Tiv Governor dies in office. The other tribes ain't no better.� I won't say much thou 2 Likes |

This thread perfectly summarizes everything wrong within a microcosm in Nigeria and these issues are magnified on the national stage. If there exists this much hatred and animosity within 1 state, how much more 36? Every single tribe in Nigeria is home to large swaths of individuals that display the negative traits complained about on this thread about Igede but Nigerians with their quick to judge mentality have already labeled every member of the tribe based on minimal interaction. Even if Nigeria is split into 36 countries there will never be progress as the problem isn’t who has power but rather the lack of an innate progressive mindset. Why should someone’s racial identity be determined by a third party? Even if Igede and Idoma combine politically and every single eligible voter supports a consensus candidate, Tiv will still win elections based on their overwhelming numbers. So I have to ask why all the noise? Looking at Yala that is 90% similar to Idoma (Igede is at most 40%), Idoma call Yala people “Yala-achi” meaning bush Yala and you expect such people to associate and want to be with you? Igede are generally looked down upon in the state by both major tribes so any complaint of marginalization by them is the same as they give out. I don’t blame Fulani/Hausa/Arewa and the political elite who cling to power after all, they have the numbers (fudged or not) to legitimize their claim. TLDR: Benue is the worst and most backward state in this country. 1 Like |

Tiv have dominated benue state. That's why they are into Land grabbing and have born to rule mentality. It's sad that the minority tribes find it hard to unite. Igede, Idoma and Etulo,Agatu. |

At Omenkalives, I've been reading through the thread quietly and waiting for someone to bring up this link! Bravo! The igedes are linked to the Obudu nation in present day Cross River that is for a fact! The progenitor of the obudu nation, Agba had several sons with Bette,Utukwang, Bekwarra, Mbube and Igede being among. I was amused when I saw a benin person claiming that Igede people migrated from ancient Benin kingdom. What a fallacy. omenkaLives: 2 Likes 2 Shares |

studentwriter: This is hilarious....and you are what now? The whole reference to being IPOB thing is amusing. You have no clue don't you? How dare you impose your ridiculous identity on people who are historically, culturally, and religiously distinct from you. Imagine the nonsense..."hausas"? lol We Middle Belt Christians have nothing in common with your nonsensical core North identity. You are desperately trying to use this old trick to "swell" your numbers again huh? North and South are aberrations created by the British....who did a lot of awful mistakes for the sake of administrative convenience. Who decides what the country's geopolitical structure should be like? The people within it. If there are people with enough common interest to want to redefine themselves and correct the British mistakes....I say, let them have it! |

vickydevoka:The same reason you people are doing all these things is to make it easier for you to enjoy what your celebrities hustle all their lives for. You seriously wish that someone that have river at his back yard will decide to wash his hands with spittle? Like, someone will be Igbo and go and marry Northern lanky looking ladies that their own men dished to die on Igbo matter? Its like saying that someone that has Hilux will decide to be carried in a wheelbarrow. You people are just funny. For a people that gets the most attention like Igbo ladies, a reasonable person will know that prostitution won't be an option because an average Igbo lady can get any none Igbo man that she wants. The only people that can choose between Igbo women is the men. For you guys, the worst among Igbo women is the best you can ever get among your own women |

God1000:Despite the denials that he wasn't idoma never stopped him from becoming the Ochi'Idoma II. However, the truth is that Igede is Idoma. And Ajene Okpabi could not had become Ochi'Idoma if he wasn't Idoma. But the problem is that it's being only Tivs becoming governors, and Idomas, senators. This should be dialogued and resolved so that any tribe in Benue State can rule rotationally. 2 Likes |

At every attempt to generate momentum to create Apa State, the habitual saboteurs are/were Igedes. The OP's/Igedes new complaint is that they have not had an opportunity to field a senator or Minister. Ho hum. Everything is localised to their tiny identity, when the bigger picture is Tiv political hegemony to the detriment of the state collectively and the zone in total. Ortom may be the one, despite his horror of a tenure, to break that "northern" aligned Tiv political agenda. Who knows ? This may create an opportunity for a minority governor. Igedes have nothing to say on that matter. They will argue about the colour of the floor tiles of a house that hasn't been built yet. If you ask them if they are not Idoma, how they became paramount chief of Idoma, all sorts of meaningless justifications reflexively roll out, like they're congenitally instructed in their "victimhood". They contribute nothing but rancourous dialogue to any argument. This been a typical exhibit. The OP sez they are closer to the ppl of CRS, yet you see not a single CRS indigene advocate for Igede anything. Perhaps if they subsumed their victimhood into the bigger questions of the day, their opinions will carry more weight. |
