XerXers:
Can Yenagoa person translate these words like me from Enugu?

XerXers:
Eze Ononankume settled the matter. 100% Igbo

XerXers:
Ohaobu, Afam, Ononankume etc are all igbo words. Go back to your origin or remain igbo where you are in igbo territory

XerXers:
King and chief called Eze Ononankume? What other evidence do we need?

XerXers:
Let them return to where they came from nahhh. See me see trouble. So because igbos settled in Lagos and Kano those places are now Igboland? You came to my land to catch fish you are free to return.

Ngwa people didn't just come to Bonny.

Ngwa and Ndoki people are the Igbo people that originally populated Bonny. It is mainly because of these two Igbo sub-groups that European explorers rightly wrote, after speaking with the natives, that Bonny was first people by Igbo people.

In fact, a European explorer wrote that Ibani people claim Ngwa descent.

So you can try and hoodwink anybody with all these latter day Ndoki Ijaw lineages. You will have an impossible task linking Ngwa into that tale, and Ngwa people don't exist in Rivers state, where you can usually start applying those your history-twisting antiques, and hope it filters through, to Ngwas in Igbo states.

Now again, no one is more adventurous than Igbos. Igbos set up settlements more proficiently than other people.
Ijaws just go to places settled in, by other people and resettle in the coastal regions of those places. A few years down the line, they start claiming they own the coast, because they do a lot of fishing.

As I wrote earlier on, you will have an impossible task uprooting the clear facts, noted by unbiased European explorers who rightly noted the fact that Igbos peopled Bonny first. We know these Igbos are Ukwa-Ngwa people. Otherwise known as the Ndokis and the Ngwa people.

OfoIgbo:
You big hurdle is that every ancient book already has it that the first settlers in Bonny were Igbos.

You also still have to explain away the Ngwa contingents of Bonny and the fact that most of the Abia Ndokis see themselves as Igbos, and it is only Ndokis in non-Igbo states, that have been confused into taking other identities, or chiefs that can easily be bribed.

Are Ngwa people Ijaws also?
Why did every explorer of the olden days make it clear that Bonny people are Igbo people?

gidgiddy:
It does not matter where Ndoki is from. What matters is that their language is Igbo, and they all have Igbo surnames

OfoIgbo:
Nwokem, you can bleat all you want, Bonny and Opobo will remain Igbo terrtories till thy kingdom come. Some Igbo territories still use OBA as the title of their traditional rulers and they still relate with their fellow wider Igbo communities.

Igbo remains the number one traditional language being spoken in both Bonny and Opobo.

The first attachment clearlys shows that
1. The lineage of the traditional rulers of Bonny, is Igbo
2. The middle class and indigenes of Bonny are of Igbo descent.
3. The slaves were also chiefly Igbo. But of course, we know that Ijaw cannibals, Ibibio and Edo slaves will also be there

So basically the first attachment clearly insinuates that the slave traders in Bonny were Igbos. That will make sense, because Aro middlemen are much more likely to deal with their fellow Igbo Bonny slave merchants that spoke their language.

The second attachment clearly shows the true map of Igboland and drawn by Basden, decades before Nigeria was created. I know Ijaws have great respect for Basden and his opinions regarding the Niger Delta. Please further have respect for the map of Igboland that he drew

These your land-grabbing won't work. People are just keeping quiet. At the appointed time, you will know you are biting more than you can chew.

Eastlink:
We are lgbo in origin. The Bini migration theory was due to our close relationship with Oguta and Ndoni people. Our ancestors came from Igbo heartland, precisely Isu. Moreover, over 80 percent of Ogutans are Isuama in origin.

Don't mention me on your retarded thread

After marriage a lot of people do expect thing to just be fine,they don't know, both couples have,another life challenges ahead of them, while some couples overcame their challenges another couples are planing to break up finally.

Since I discovered I married an Igbo Lady, and after one kid,I later learn were my mistake came from, my only mistake was that I did not set in mind another financial side were my wife would generate incomes, but am working on 3 ways i can generate petty petty income before my salary enters,no perfect marriage, but its how you use endurance to achieved the well beings of the marriage .a lot of times its after marriage that people realized their mistake despite all the marriage plans before the marriage.

When my wife started given me that attitude and excuses of am tired, leave me alone, pls stop, etc when I make advance at her, I tried to find out what is wrong, I called her attention to it politely, she told me that I was irritating her, so I quickly discovered an idle mind is the devils work shop, I tried my best in enrolling her in a catering school, she still continued in refusing me. I would pretend as if am forcing to rap her, but jokingly, she would scream rape!!! Playfully so I would stop.

Sometimes when I come back from work late or spend few times around while in the area, she would think I went to cheat, my wife is somebody that assumes especially when she saw u talking to any woman or greet, she would conclude in her heart that you guys may be dating.

After disturbing me that she wants to relocate to her own state so her business can flourish ,I called her mom to see if they can agree to it which she did, and after much advice from elderly men and woman I later came to my own finally conclusion after doing my + and - because not every advice one takes when seeking for advise ,I gave her some money to go spent time with her mom and what ever she decide she should let me know, I will be sending her some cash every months and the baby till she comes back to her senses.,they are now in the east and I stay in another state alone.

Na who sex help, another 3 ladies are disturbing to come visit me, but I decline them,I no wan cast my beloved marriage but soon i will answer them not now, especially now that am rushing and focusing to complete my house and put some tenant but all works and no play males jack a dull boy.

Now am more relaxed, marriage no b small thing o,its not a do or die affair ,don't kill your self for those you can't pls. A lot of woman change after having kids.

Since my wife left our conversion on phone is even better than when we stayed together. Sometimes you need to give a wife the opportunity to refresh them self as no woman wants to be tied own. Marriages get broken due to lack of refreshment, give your problem wife sense of refreshment, or let them miss you so they can know what they have.

Tob456:
Hey guys, my ex girlfriend is 7 months pregnant. She doesn't want to have anything to do with me cos I didn't want to carry the responsibility of her four sisters.

She is 24 orphen and the oldest of seven children. She is a fruit seller and the pregnancy wasn't plan she took in 6 months into the relationship but I have accepted the responsibility and I wanted to make her my wife.

First of all I wanted us to discussed about her sisters living arrangements after the wedding and she said she wanted to bring all four who are under 18 to live with us after the wedding and I rejected.

I suggested that the youngest two can live with us while the other two can stay with the aunty but she refused.

She said the relationship was over and she doesn't need me in her life that she will take care of the baby alone.

I've told her even if she doesn't want me in her life anymore she should not stop me from helping her financially because I want our baby to be born in good condition but she refused.

Last week I sent 30k to her account for baby stuffs and she sent the money back to me saying she doesn't need a kobo from me she will take care of the baby alone.

I want to leave her alone but it is hard for me to do so cos she is carrying my child. It will not be easy for me to give up easily I just want to be a part of my daughter life. What do you guys think please?

AlexBells:
We are not coming to pick them up, they are in their land, we want to connect with our people, that's all.

AlexBells:
It is my life, and I'm living it, I have nothing to prove to you, whether I'm Igbo or not shouldn't bother you.

Even if I create propaganda, is it your propaganda?, you talk as if you know more than everyone else, you are a political neophyte and naive, you still talk about regional government in 21st century pleass mention one advantage and disadvantage of regional government. I think you are one of the most brainwashed people who can't form their own opinions.

You claim to be Igbo yet you have divided us with your insinuation "most native Igbos in the south east", is there any Igbo in South South that are not natives, you are a saboteur if at all you are Igbo, all Igbos are one and natives in south East, south south and some part of middle belt.

If at all you are Igbo then you are a disgrace, a simpleton and unpatriotic element, Nigeria is not going back to regional government, otherwise let's break up.

AlexBells:
People think more of themselves than anything else, maybe you talking about you, all the answers you seek is in the post unless you haven't read

AlexBells:
What I just said

AlexBells:
If you are not my people then my people know themselves

AlexBells:
Whichever way is welcome, just understand the statement "We are not leaving any of our people or affiliated people behind",

AlexBells:
You said to give me lecture, I was waiting for you to lecture me on the significance of Bitumen on the topic of energy and electricity that we are discussing and you went about renting, now take your lecture,

1. Bitumen currently have no electricity nor energy significance, Bitumen is used in roads and some roofing material production.

2. AlaIgbo has the highest gas deposit in Africa, coal and as for crude, we have more than any other tribe in Nigeria.

3. We can't discuss territorial waters becuase we are currently part of Niger however we have the highest and most important inland waters in Nigeria.

4. Your emotional black would not impact us, we are not leaving any of our people or affiliated people behind in the very situation that Nigeria regrettably divides.

5. Talking about renewable energy, I have hinted to you that such energy isn't feasible even among developed nations currently becuase the output of wind and solar is quite limited and you guys have limited force flowing rivers. You don't have significant gas deposits so don't deceive yourself.

Alabo7978:
You don't know the use of Bitumen and it's importance?
Well I'm in no mood for lectures today because you'd want us to grow your mkpurummiri inspired post.
First,, we can never fall into darkness because the world darkness because the
World is moving towards renewable energy such as wind and solar. Igbo backwardness since 3000Bc according to that stupid group, still happy in using coal for electricity... igbo-Piri'bo

We have the highest crude reserve,, enough gas reserves to last us till Jesus comes.
We are also open to the seas and you people crave that. We know you people can't do without commerce, importing and exporting and you'll use our coasts,,,, definitely why you people are doing all you can to spread propaganda since the 1950s.
Una dn dey plan like Fulani people and infact una worse pass fulanies... The reason you cry victim is because you don't hold power in Nigeria.
Well,, we Sabi una agenda.... No igbo-Piri'bo can claim the coast... every izon man from 1week old, even in the womb is ready for you.
We go feed you Angala leaves before drowning you to be slaves to the Owuamapu but meanwhile, to continue your export and import,, una go dey remit 60trillion dollars to rent our ports.
Second condition, you all will have to go through enculturation rites,
Third condition, you will learn the Izon language(s)
Fourth......I don't know the fourth condition... We will think about it and relay it to your Piri.
Don't bother quoting me again,, I have unfollowed the nòmúfied thread.
I don talk my own finis o.. egberi'fa o.

God bless you my brother, igbos are not after anybody's land or state but we are after the unit of brothers. Ijaw and igbo are brothers.

ImperialYoruba:
Can you imagine the mess we would be in today if our forefathers had not taken up this issue with British Crown and their colonial Governors. Federal Govt would have cheated us and ibo would line up behind the constitution to try and steal what FG did not use of the land.

We continue to document our history and ancestry, filter out impurities, yanminri and his cunning generations would never convert an inch of Yorubaland. How will they do it?
