Efewestern:
So where do you place the Effik/Ibibio in your debate? I thought we all argue with facts rather than sentiment.

Effik/Ibibio should be the fourth largest ethnic group in Nigeria. They always had the numbers.

Here's an unbiased ranking
1. Efik/Ibibio (98% of Cross River & Akwa Ibom)
2. Edoid (2/4 of Delta State, 95% of Edo state, 10% Bayelsa)
3. ijoid (90% Bayelsa, 1/5 Delta state, 1/4 Rivers State, 2% Edo)
3. igboid (1/4 Delta, 2/3 Rivers, 2%Edo)


what in the world does edoid mean.....bini people are limited to edo state na!

If you want to argue further, we can start to referencing population census from the 50's.

Modified: I attached the population census of Bendel (Delta). Urhobo/Isoko (Edoid) - 42%
Igboid - 30%
Ijaw - 15%
Itsekiri - 10%. Please note that I didn't take account of the Urhobo communities in Western Ijo territories and Warri. Also didn't include Isoko population in Ukwuani. This is for Delta state. In Edo state, Edoid group occupied over 95% of the population.

The only state the Igboid group are majority, is Rivers. Meanwhile the Edoid dominate two states (Edo & Delta with significant population in Bayelsa & Rivers).

In Cross River and Akwa Ibom, the Effik/Ibibio occupy these states completely, giving them the clear lead.

The Ijaws are found in every states but only command numbers in Delta, Bayelsa and Rivers. There's no way they can surpass the Edoid group in strength.

Very neat looking inter-city road connecting a number of communities in Anambra state, just constructed by the Soludo admin'!

I'm telling the absolute truth,once the chips are down,only then will they Yorubas realise how far away they ve driven other southerners.... never in the history of this contraption called Nigeria,has any single region so much isolated others.Nigeria May never be blessed with the grace of light,as long as they allow ethnic jingoist whom sees the seat of presidency as an avenue to get even with other ethnic groups.The chicago junky,can only appoint fellow megalomanaics from Lagos axis,little wonder why Nigeria is in a


terrific mess.

Zooposki:
I don’t think a Northern ruler has committed genocide against South South people, just South West rulers, Obj and now Tinubu but I might be wrong though.

When you sign up to join the armed forces, you sign up to defend people, sometimes at the cost of your life. That's what you're trained, equiped, armed and paid for. In the battle against terrorism, insecurity and criminality, there will be casualties

However, when Soldiers go on revenge mission to kill and destroy communities where their comrades were killed, this is not only a crime, it is a war crime which the Nigerian constitution, the Rome statute and the Geneva convention are all against

Odi, Orlu, Awo-Mmamma, Izombe, Obigbo and many others, all in the south of Nigeria, the story is the same. The Nigerian Army, sometimes the Nigerian Police as well, will move into a community where their members were reportedly killed, start shooting at anything that moves, and burn down the place

Every week, Soldiers are killed in the North, but never have I heard that Soldiers attacked any community in the North. Just a few years ago, a serving Major General in the Nigerian Army, General Hassan Ahmed, was ambushed and killed by armed bandits in the North, nothing happened in the community

If that happened in the South, they would wipe out the community. Nobody is allowed to take the law into their hands. The Nigerian Army attacking communities in a revenge mission is a violation of the constitution and international law

ElSudani:
Nonsense post. Why are some communities in the south so quick in killing soldiers and policemen and then turn around to blackmail the Army!
This is wrong on so many levels, who said some of the soldiers are not from the communities where they were killed?
We regularly see stories of policemen being roasted and eaten in some places, where is the outrage for God's sake?

Lanretoye:
Enugu-port harcourt-calabar-Abuja…useless people still come up with another propaganda,even when a child born since 1980 in the east has never seen a railway in the whole south east till today except he steps outside the east.them wan help their life now,dem Dey talk another thing.

Our miserable tribe will say we don't need anything from our president! but inside their closet,they keeps on weeping their eyes out. Obi in his closet now will be dying of every opportunity to get close to appointment,but shishi he no go get. There is consequence for voting losers!

christistruth01:
Yawns!!!!


Next!!

crossfm:
Hehehe.

I might not support the choice that the father made during elections,but I think he is a good father.

He had to put pride aside and desperately search for help.

I pray his child get the help.

People are really going through a lot,that's why I get annoyed when people still try to sugarcoat the situation in Nigeria today.

Our leaders must start working, enough of all the,we will,we shall,we are going to, please start doing something.

you got it the other way round for fridges..leaving it on from morning till night and switch it off at night when you want to sleep to put it on in the morning( that is if light is 24 hrs anyway)

Delusion.. Show us 1 rail in Anambra...
Lagos has built blue line, redline and has moved to green.. Where is your obi's just 1? Abi rail no dey fit run for Anambra?

Babalegba:
You are too excited to label me a tribalist so you didn't read my post properly .lol. I wrote that the agitators are all miscreants and obviously that would include Igboho .They are all misguided dangerous rabble rousers and pose serious risk to lives and economic security of the country. If Igboho had faced only the fulani, he'd have been okay but his oduduwa republic rhetoric made him a miscreant.
As for Kanu, nothing good will come out only violent deaths and economic destruction for the south east. Some other ijaw guys.are already starting their own from nairaland. Nothing good will come out of it.
Peter obi is a bad choice for national leadership

not a bad point, but be aware that they are coming to insult you constantly. If it were chinese, that is ok.

Ebubu2:
Aba is on Lagos’s industrial level to be frank.
7years from now Aba industrial sector will overpower neighbouring Port Harcourt. Port Harcourt’s sole wealth is in god-given oil while Aba is in manufacturing.

Aba is on massive industrialization. Aba is phasing from Imu Oru (learning handwork such as shoes and tailoring under someone ), into commercialisation and industrialisation.

After Lagos, the next foreign investment location in Abia state.

kettykin:
I saw this write up in business day , I was too afraid to post it because the enemies of progress are louder than the friends of progress.

Any igbo man who doesn't relocate or buy a piece of land or landed property in Aba should save us the stress of listening to tales of his or her woes in the next few years

Nyamiriflathed:
Patriotic indeed. Same people calling their country a zoo all over social media. Same people that gave us the likes of Nnamdi Kanu, Simon Ekpa, UGM, IPOB, ESN e.t.c

naijapips02:
Even more propaganda. Oga show full working.

Depriest2020:
Creating unnecessary enemies for the good Igbo people. Educated and literate Igbos don't indulge in things like this.

I don't know why half baked educated Igbos like this poster have vowed to bring troubles to the good Igbo people of Nigeria.

Words like this causes others to despise, loathe, detest, abhor your people, it also brings disdain, disparagement, denigration, opprobrium to your people.

Why are the illiterate amongst you quick to rush to the net to post things that brings contempt to your people.

If others are hungry why rob it to their face and mock them. Even if you think a people made mistakes electing their choice of president, why not allow them rue their mistake in peace.

delpee:
Pastor Kumuyi is right. The Bible teaches us to always care for the poor, the fatherless, widows and orphans. It also teaches us to care for the sick and those in prison. Pastors should focus on this as much as they dwell on tithing.
