Tunjibalogun:

To sincere with you I have met hausa, igbo, kanuri, Efik, Ibibio, Tiv people etc but I have never seen a single ijaw person before, lol
Ijaw maybe the smallest tribe in Nigeria

purafapi:


I am not an Ijaw. However, our people also have massive hydrocarbon reserve. Our people are working hard to take control of our resources, however, the Ijaws are not doing same. Looks like the fear of their Igbo compatriots made them to lose the sense of mortal danger that lurks around them.

purafapi:


Its possible he is not. A problem that is properly defined can be easily tackled. The concern of everyone, especially Ijaws who have suffered massive cheating together with environmental destruction ought to know better.

Veggieseedies:


You are the problem of yourselves

Your people are made ministers of ND, they (your elders both home and in the ministry) jointly have deprived you of the benefits that accrues from your natural resource

Environmental destruction is one of the major reasons for their appointments to head the ministry, what have they done?

Veggieseedies:


I have never met with Ijaw

I have had contacts with Ikwerre (ndi kwerre)

From childhood, I lived with ibibio, and efik, hausa is visible everywhere, Yoruba too. This ones are my neighbors but I have never seen them before, I only read about Ijaw as one of the tribes in naijuria

Tunjibalogun:

Lol and they still tell us its the 4th largest ethnic group. Ijaw is an online tribe

purafapi:


If these ministers were under an Ijaw sovereign government, they will be dealt with. The part of the country that impoverished their land takes the worst among them to be ministers. I will never blame the Ijaws for these. However, I am surprise that they are channeling their grievance to Ndigbo who wish them well. The Fulanis does not love them, though it looks like they love the Fulanis.

purafapi:
The Ijaws are 4m.
I wish they could align with Ndigbo to get their independence. Then form a confederation were everyone is independent and manages her own resources.

Ijoh:

First and foremost, Ijaw is as large as Igbo both in area and in population.
So many people you call Igbos are actually Ijaws.


The statement that Igbos are the richest tribe in Nigeria is false.
The world � judge richest people by how many people are living below poverty level.
Ijaw is the richest tribe in Nigeria ��.


All over Ariaria Aba, Ogui Road Enugu, Main Market Onitsha, Upper Iweka, Onitsha, Main Park Aba, etc, Igbo beggers with plates everywhere

but you will never ever see not even one Ijaw that beg with plates on the streets not even in the 2,500 Ijaw villages and settlements and the 88 Clans.

Veggieseedies:


No one will stab me twice

This is why they "fear". It is inert in them already and when you present this ideology, that inert fear will materialize in their dealings.

The fear of Igbo advancements, population (which they don't use as a dominating factor though), Igbo willpower, etc

purafapi:


I dont think its fear of Igbo advancements. They basically misjudged the Fulanis when they aligned with them in the 60s.

Even if it is fear, there is nothing to worry. In fact, aligning with a progressive Nation like Ndigbo will positively rub off on them. I see a great Fishing industry delevop in Ijaw land. I see Ndigbo and Ijaws building indegenous Fishing Vesels and the largest fish processing facility in West Africa. This can only happen in an environment where the people are forward thinking.

666Advocate:

Ijaws are in six states.
If you have met Ondo, Edo, Delta, Bayelsa, Rivers and Akwa-Ibom person youve met Ijaw

They introduce themselves with the states.
All Ijaw areas share perfect boundaries with each other its just unfair state balkanizations in other to weaken Ijaw unity but still we dont beg.

Veggieseedies:
Even those on nysc, I have never met any ijaw Corp member. Please is there anything like Ijaw tribe for real?

Patrioticbreed9:

Nde ikwerre.

Patrioticbreed9:

Honestly outside south south its hard to find them.

Veggieseedies:

I said ndi nke kwerre
Asin
Qs: Ikwerre na ibu onye Igbo Ans: Ee, E kwere m

Patrioticbreed9:

What is this rubish

Translate the the answer part to english.

I find this coment highly offensive.

666Advocate:
Proudly Ijaw, fully Atikulated.

Veggieseedies:

Translate what?

It is self comprehensible

However, reread your jargon

Patrioticbreed9:

See young boy stop trying to rewrite a history you know nothing about.

Their is no such word as kwerem like you claimed.


Unlike igbo language

We dont use kwere as agree, we say kwerule.


And we dont use the word e kwere m for we agree instead we use e kwerulem.


Their is no need for all this long talk.

I only corrected you.


It's not ndi kwerre it's nde ikwerre.


Anything wey you talk again na you sabi.

Patrioticbreed9:

Honestly outside south south its hard to find them.

Veggieseedies:

I find your first statement slightly offensive.
However, I believe you know the difference between Olu Ndi and Igbo Izugbe
Double tongue
