Thread created in bad taste, to cause unnecessary bad blood betwen Deltans.


One thing about Tinubu supporters is that brand of wicked politics they call sophistication, politics of bitterness etc.

As for your mischievous thread,
Delta is mostly populated by Urhobos.

Then the Igbos (aldo some hate to be referred to as igbos)

I am from Delta but questions like this can cause divisiveness but I'll assume you are asking just for information purpose.

Uhrobos are much more in numbers,

Delta is such a unique state, we have put tribalism on the back burner in that state.

I think Nigeria should come and learn from us

If you split the igbos of delta into their three sub distinctive tribes then urhobos are the largest tribe in delta but if they come together as one tribe then they are the largest..

Urhobo is the largest ethnic group in Delta State. We are the sole indigenous people of Delta Central Senatorial district, where the following major Delta State cities/towns are situated: Effurun, Ekpan, Jeddo,Osubi, Okuokoko, Ugbomro, Sapele,Ughelli,Abraka, Oghara ,Ovwian-Aladja,Orhuwhorun,DSC Township,Agbarho and the popular Bomadi Junction along East West Road( that axis is part of Uwheru Kingdom of Ughelli North LGA).

The Urhobos are also indigenous people of Delta South Senatorial District- the major Urhobo towns in this axis of Delta State are : Agbassa ( where the popular Igbudu market is situated. Edjeba ( where Delta Broadcasting Station and former SPDC Yard now NPDC yard are located) is also an Agbassa town.

The popular Deco Road/Robinson Plaza in Warri and Okumagba Avenue are all Urhobo towns in Delta South Senatorial District.

The other Urhobo communities in Delta South Senatorial district are Uduophori and Odurubu. Both are in Patani LGA. I have been to a Odurubu , Urhobo language is the mother tongue of the people there.

Other ethnic groups in Delta State are :

1. Isoko ( they are kinda close to Urhobos in culture.)
2. Ijaw
3. Itsekiri
4. Ndokwa
5. Ika
6. Aniocha

No. 1- 3 are in Delta South Senatorial District as well. Major Isoko towns are Oleh and
Ozoro ( a university town).Major Ijaw towns are Burutu, Bomadi and Ogulagha.While major Itsekiri towns are Koko and Ugborodo ( Escravos).

NOTE: The the popular Warri city has Urhobo, Ijaw and Itsekiri axis.

No. 4-6 are in Delta North Senatorial District. The major Ndokwa towns are Obiaruku and Kwale. The major Ika towns are Agbor and Abavo. The Aniocha people are the core Igbo Speaking people of Delta State, they share cultural ties with Anambra State across the Niger.Major Aniocha towns are Asaba ( our state capital) and Isele-Uku/Ogwashi Uku.

Our outgoing governor, the loan master is from Ika ethnic group.

So you want to tell us that Delta State Ijaw are more than Urhobos in Delta State? or the Ikas , Aniochas are more than the Urhobos in Delta State?

Yes, it is pure foolishness to debate about a topic you don't have any hard data. None of you can quantify the numbers of any tribe that's why you won't attempt it. No, I don't want to speculate which tribe is more because it's foolish to be without any data.

Unless you know the previous numbers and true fertility rates you can't even make an estimate. I'll simply wait for the census and get the answer when someone bothers to count. If you disagree rank the groups and state their numbers. When the census is released we'll compare.
