Deban:
The fact that the Europeans settled in European Quarters in Port Harcourt and named the new city of Port Harcourt after Lewis Harcourt should be an indication that they settled in that area long before they ventured to Onitsha.
Bonny Island has existed as Bonny Island since the 1400s. The name was Okoloma founded by Ibani people but was named Bonny people by the European trading partners who could not pronounce Ibani. Opubo was called Opobo. King Pepple of Bonny had Europeans who were under his employ way back in the 1800, way before the amalgamation of Nigeria before they ventured into Onitsha.. King Jaja of Opobo had European secretaries or aides. This was long before he was abducted and sent on exile before missionaries came to Onitsha.
You guys in the hinterlands need to travel down south, to the Ijaw Islands and get first hand knowledge of your surrounding before basing your facts to only what you know being schools in Onitsha of yesterday.

Nengi has proved she is worth more than their baby child. he can inherit his fathers business. Nengi will move on to a man who made his own money and doesnt have a family to be controlling him up and down. That is a better and an ultimate KO

whitepanda:
[s]This is just rubbish... Baba stop analyzing nonsense cos even if they come out Ozo's family will not even allow that LovePeddler to be close to him.. he is there only son.. who will inherit 4 businesses started by his Dad.. just because he wants to create his own part doesn't mean they would sit by and watch their son be with someone that all big boys and alhajis has used her destiny to play ludo.... They are friends and are both catching cruise[/s]...

Threebear:
But low-key these housemates talk down on kiddwaya and I noticed they don't take many of his ideas during tasks even though they're brilliant.

Also, take note of my number 1 point:

"1. D topic says Rivers State not bayelsa."

lexy2014:
1. D topic says Rivers State not bayelsa.
2. Your initial claim was that it is only ijaw people that bear western surnames.
3. Upon me disputing ur claim& saying that it is peculiar to d kalabaris, u have now changed ur story to "riverine people's of Rivers & bayelsa".
4. If I mentioned kalabari & u said:
"Stop writing what you know nothing about" and then:
"Western names are very common with the riverine people's of Rivers and Bayelsa."
pls where does kalabari fall into?
5. From d above, isn't it obvious that u are d one who doesn't no what he is saying?

oneeast3:
Why are niger Deltans not bearing portugese names since they came before the British in that region.

Exmilitant:
maybe you are talking rubbish! Okrikans, kalabari, bonny and some elderly ijaws speaks igbo very fluently how come?

lexy2014:
[s]Ijaw people don't bear western surnames. It's kalabari people who western surnames[/s]

oneeast3:
So why is it that the oldest colleges established by British in the old eastern region were all in Onitsha?

AK481:
Those who don’t like “rumuokoro” decides to use English name to hide their igbo identities.

Afam4eva:
Those name are common specifically with Ijaw people of Rivers and Bayelsa state.

Those names came with colonialism. Some ethnic groups tend to romanticize the colonialist more than others.

westlius:
I bear West by name and am proud to b from Rivers state, Kalabari tribe, Such name makes some1 identity ur hometown easily. And is unique.
Any West u hear is from a particular tribe in Rivers state

oneeast3:
[s]Europeans came to Onitsha and settled down long before going to Niger Delta. Europeans established so many premier colleges in Onitsha like DMGS, CKC, CRK, etc, before even looking to the direction of Rivers state, but it didn't make the Onitsha people that started having contacts with Europeans way back in 1500AD to threw away their origin.

Even the oldest missions in the old eastern region comprising of Rivers state were established by the British in Onitsha. It proves another point that they settled more in Onitsha than anywhere in the present day Niger delta, but still yet the people the British met in Onitsha never threw away their origin[/s].

Ellaisaqueeen:
You're not lying. I also thought Nengi was one of those girls, beauty with no brains....I thought she was going to be a slut and love peddler on the show and since I've watched Erica's movie 'Hire a woman' before she came into the house and another one that's about betting, I decided to support her. But, after what she did with Kidd in the second week...mehn, I was so disappointed. I'm no longer supporting her o.....I feel bad for judging Nengi so soon sef. Nengi really surprised me, she's still focused on the game.
The Erica that came into the show is not the same anymore...I don't want to judge sef, based on the fact that I don't know if that's her character or strategy which I doubt....
