Crowther mentioned Okoloma. He did not mention Okolo-ama. There is also an Okoloma in Ndoki-Igbo territory, and also an ancient map, which Bkayy keeps sending to nairaland, shows Okoloma in both the Ndoki territory and as a second name of Ubani.

You guys have nothing. Already Dr. Baikie, who was the leader of the expedition had already made it clear that Bonny people claim Igbo ancestry. What else do you need to know
I wonder oh.

The longest lie in Nigeria is that Bonny is Ijaw.
The lie started in 1971 and managed to last until 2021 because Nigerians don't read.

Like the whites say "If you want to hide something from a Black man, do it in a book"

Alagoa did that perfectly and Nigerians lived in that lie until Social media and Internet came up.
Thanks to Nairaland, Facebook etc where people like us can help blow the lies with Truth.
All you have heard about Bonny before now (anyone that points to Ijaw) are simply lies.

whites are not hidin anything from you today....soo,whats you igbos excuse today....??

You keep recycling this trash.
There are many part of the world where a city is named in another location too.

OKOLOMA was the area Queen Kambasa and some servants moved to when her father Edimini married her off to a man known as Opoli just to Foster trade with the Ndoki people who controlled the imo river because cash crops like yams, rice, palm oil, maize were not grown in Bonny.
That place was also where the Bonny people camp when they come to oyigbo back in those days to buy slave.
In that same obigbo, we can both attest there is Calabar quarters, OHAFIA QUATERS, mbano camp, ABRIBA QUATERS, but does it means the said town own the obigbo and ndoki area?
The OKOLOMA you're pointing was simply a camp of the Bonny people during slave or cash crop trading.
Quit the double standards brother man.

How come OHAFIA QUARTERS, ABRIBA QUARTERS, Calabar quarters did not show up in the ancient map of Ndoki land? But Okoloma showed up.

Secondly, OKOLOMA is not OKOLO-AMA. Show us an ancient record where Bonny is referred to as OKOLO-AMA.

Thirdly, why did the real Ubani people claim Igbo descent, when Dr. Baikie asked them? They did not claim any other thing else

These people are bent on getting to the sea Alabo, nothing will make them reason along your line of argument.

I've told myself not to bother on this issue, otherwise I would have brought out excepts from their much loved Captain Crow that contradicts their argument.In the end,there is no point.They'll continue to argue blindly.

Then again,I'm impressed with your write-up.Again you've set the record straight.Written works from Valentim Fernandez, Jean Barbot and Captain Pereira would affirm your argument.

For me, it is the audacity to claim Arochukwu's glory.

The Aros were the undisputed Military Police of that era and they tranversed the entire length and breathe of the Niger Delta. When the Aros were selling slaves in Bonny, ijaws just arrived the delta as murderous pirates, robbing people between Formosa river and lagos.

Well the first European explorers think otherwise. They were marvelled by the ingenuity of the Igbos and they recorded what they saw. It is not your fault if you disagree. At least they were not bribed when they made their observations.

Instead of focusing on igbos, I will rather you spend that time doing PR for your anonymous people, hopefully in 10years they would become popular.

The problem with most of you is, you are too obsessed with igbos to think straight.

Ojukwu will continue to be a reference point in Nigerian history as a man who shouldered the responsibility of leadership when fate trusted it in his care. A rare feat most youths today will not dare.

Now instead of Ojukwu, is your ethnic group so insignificant that nobody is worthy of any mention?

In the absence of such person, can you show us the historical correlation between ijaws and Bonny?

Same ol' regurgitated rubbish.

Please chronicle how the Ijos invaded Bonny,took over the land from the fictitious Igbo aborigines.Through war or brainwashing as you all keep yapping about.

There should be somewhere is a history book where it was written.Show us from a neutral account.No conjectures.

Until then,just shut up!

I wonder why reputable information sources don't reference Hugh Crow, I can't keep posting books here all the time, it's tedious.
I referenced and cited and even quoted people I mentioned but your only concern is a slave merchant who barely comes pass the shores and only interviewed slaves.
Brother man I have a degree in library and information science, and when a material or book or information source has been found to be incorrect, it is weeded out of major shelves and removed or uncited as a reliable account or information material.
Go and also read about the ijoid grouping by Williamson and Blench.
I referenced and cited researchers, scholars and the year.
Also search the book ; 'polyglotta Africana' by Sigismund Koelle.
I referenced atleast 8 researchers, scholars and linguists who's work put to death the memoirs of a slave ship marauder.
And those researchers works are what you find in encyclopedia Brittanica, Wikipedia, and on-line information repositories world wide.

Stop getting hard on fake, weeded information.

The most funny thing is that they didn't even know crow's work has been weeded.
When John Clarke a missionary on the assignment to preach to the heathens under the command of the British crown, he relied on crow's work and the interviewed slaves in England, and he thought it was their tongue they spoke but when he came, he discovered otherwise and his work was doubled, they had to send a learned afro American named Merrick who helped him to began to pick vocabularies again, baikie did same too.
Sir Edwin Norris; the assistant secretary of the Asiatic society began collecting Bonny numerals, and by 1848 john Clarke and Dr baikie with the help of Merrick had already grouped the ijoid Languages. By that same year, Samuel crowther had also taken a detailed report of Bonny and new calabar and the town's details.. below is a screenshot of baikie's collected Bonny numerals and a 6 word vocab, below is also crowther's report,further below is The comparative vocabularies in which all this researchers, and scholars worked on, and further confirmed by modern day linguist like Gerrit Dimmendaal, Williamson, Blench, Paul hair.
Truth is crow's work has been binned since the 1840's, reason it is never cited or referenced anywhere in any reputable information source.
This is what 9pluto said he will bring to court, audio court.
He will be fined for fees he can't even dream of touching and sentenced behind bars for a few months.
