Unfortunately, we have to live with it.
It's funny though that C/River is more SE that any SE states.

I always dislike the term "South-South."

But a foolish Igbo man created it for the minorities.

@ OP

No. They shouldn't.

Geographically, there isn't anything like the South South rather, its South East. "South South" is just a false Nigerian connotation just like we have a false type of federal government, a false structure infact, a false everything.

I just don't want to be in a country with the Ijaw. They are too warlike.

Neither should you be, for other minorities in the East, most of whom worked against you in the time of need

It was not most. Only a few. Was it not Asari Dokubo who is an Ijaw who said his family supported Biafra?

Was it not the Ibibios who bore the brunt of Nigerian attacks even worse than many Igbo groups?

Do you want to know why Ibibios say that every ugly Ibibio must be the product of Nigerian vandals who despoiled their women?

We Igbos already know our allies.

lollz! U still don't understand even in the 21st Century my brother and  honestly I don't think u will ever understand. The Biafra War was not a Igbo in need War, but a war we fought for Progress, Self Determination and Success of ourselves and future generations yet unborn (posterity)

U did not work against the Igbos but u foolishly worked against yourself and today many of your youths, women and elders wallow away in abject poverty without hope and die.

When your sons that sold their birth right for a piece of meal complain about not benefiting from the oil in their land, dey are hanged like chicken,(i.e Ken Saro Wiwa) your children and youth shot by the Nigerian army like criminals.  Oil executives both foreign and national Robb your young women and girls of their virtue.

No, u did not let us down in our time of need but u let urself down in your time of need.

Its a shame u dont understand the ingenuity of Ekwueme. no doubt the creation of SS has some bad. it breaks up the bond. however, with many minorities and a larger main tribe slugging it out always on  political positions, development infrastructures etc, it was always bringing bad belle between us.

Back then, even in Rivers, other minorities became hesitant to sell land or do business with igbos; ijaws always raging over anything , position etc against the igbos.
This rage against the Federal Government over oil allocations and revenue were back then heaped on Igbos. they erroneously accused the igbos for  the lack of development in their land, thinking the majority igbo led leadership was shortchanging them.

Now, since Ekwueme created out SS, Igbos are held at high esteem in these places. A bayelsa ijaw man yearns to date and marry Igbo girls.
They even strive to have igbos live within them.
They engage in true friendship partnership with Igbos. Igbo traders are welcomed even better than the Federal Government.

asari dokubu even said they re best attached with the Igbos.

All these only happened becos we dont fight over same thing , same position, same allocation,  location of same projects .
 



Also, look igbos and her close relatives- (ibibos, efik anyans and rivers minorities n ijaws) now have two regions. SE N SS. owing to the way things are doled out in this country we will forever be getting twos.

could u imagine the whole south west including lagos is classified as one zone.

                                           SW  + lagos (43% igbos, +6 % SS)                  -                   SE/SS
international airport           one                                                                    -          two abi three


Federal university-             four                                                                    -                nine

etc


infact, as long as the government keep sharing things based on geopolitical zone- which i believe will be for ever , THE SE/SS wud always enjoy two rations.
