I have noticed you. You speak foolishness with great confidence online.
Do you know the difference between Ijoid and Edoid language families ? Educate yourself. [b]Ogbia is derived from Edoid [/b]and not Ijoid family of Niger Congo languages.
Just because GEJ's tribe is in Bayelsa does not make them Ijaw people. You might as well say everybody in Kaduna is Hausa.
Stop engaging me online with your ignorance. I want to discuss with people who have knowledge.

Read the linked article.

We can as well say Jonathan was an Edo man...... Cas e closed!! Nor mind dat jobless niggaa

AdaFonju:
Hahaha oh Jesus, who was akamu abeg?

Ask your fada in bayelsa he might know

continentalceo:
They have produced and elected V.P and president. Which Benin never do.

Lock up and reaserch first before you open your mouth.

What of Augustus Aikhomu?

Or is Good luck Jonathan greater than Tony Enahoro?

Illiterate! It's their labour and not "there labour" It's evident that upon all the ashawo that your olosho mother did, she still could not train you in school.

Your mother is a harlot who serviced Nigerian and fulani troops and she knows very well that the man you call your father is not your father. You are the son of over a 100 drunks whom your HIV positive mother slept with for a plate of amala.
The proceeds of her prostitution is what you use in rubbing relaxer and shampoo on those beards of yours. No worry...she has HIV and will soon die when it progresses to AIDS and I'll see where you will start feeding from. Those your beards go soon turn to dada! Oponu bastard!!

God have Mercy

What has those clay brought them?

Has any I jaw become;

A President?

A vice-president?

A Dangote?

A Bill gate?

Given them paradise?

If they have achieved any these through those clays, then they have a point.

They had an ineffectual Buffon

Guyman02:
Why are the Binis trying to impose their Oba on another tribe. Those Ijaws have been there for ages as their ancestral land, perhaps National Boundary Commission can delineate that area into Delta State.
Do you know that there is Igala in Anambra State and no one is forcing them to pay allegiance to any Igbo traditional ruler?

Guy but sense is cheap na!! Abeg borrow

..

Blackfyre:
I guess they reversed it, the Bini chiefs wear white while the Oba wears red....

Straight Edo copy and Paste !!

Yorubas stop using yourselves for rituals and eating up yourselves.

PEOPLE AND DEMOGRAPHY
The main ethnic groups in Edo State are: Edos, Afemais, Esans, Owans and Akoko Edos. Virtually all the groups traced their origin to Benin City hence the dialects of the groups vary with their distance from Benin City. The Bini speaking people who occupy seven out of the 18 Local Government Areas of the state constitute 57.54% while others Esan (17.14%) Afemai compirising of Etsako (12.19%), Owan (7.43%), and Akoko Edo (5.70%). However, the Igbira speaking communities exist in Akoko Edo as well as Urhobos, Ijaws, Itsekiris communities in Ovia North East and South West Local Government Areas especially in the borderlands. Also, Ika speaking communities exist in Igbanke in Orhionmwon LGA.

Samusu:
I swear

davidnazee:
The most TRUEST fact in the world is ;
Ijaws are settlers in Edo lands.
No amount of rain or fire can ever change that truest fact to lie. Ijaws settled in Edo lands a few years ago.
Ijaw population in the so called olodiama kingdom is not more than 5,000. How can u be in a place for hundreds of years and be only 5,000 in number?

Good point !

Answer my questions, first. Has anyone told you that you cannot prosper in this life, unless you get to know my tribe and seek blessings from them? Na simple question, I ask. Tell us, o.

Pussy cat don't be shy come on tell us your tribe...

.....Tell them ooo so at least they won't end up like your presidency

Former President Goodluck Jonathan has called on the people of Ijaw ethnic nationality to stop destroying themselves and embrace unity.

The former President made the call on Friday in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State capital, while paying tribute to the late Ijaw leader and former member of Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party, Chief Gordon Bozimo.

Who died earlier in the year in Arkansas , USA

Bozimo, a former Chairman of the National Youth Service Corps Board,



Jonathan said, ‘’We must stop destroying ourselves as a people. We are not many. Things are quite challenging

Tell us your tribe , I do not have time for your cheer leading nonsense

LaudateII:
Ashamed of what? Is my tribe owing you any money, or have they said you cannot make progress in life, unless you know my tribe and seek their blessings? Let us know. As for the mod that is supporting your antics, God will deal with him without delay. All your alternate accounts are well known. Should I list them here?

Cheerleader tell us your tribe and stop making noise!

This are the ijaw backyard kings

Look how they dress like Oba of Benin and later turn around and try and insult the same Edo people they copy and look up to, this miscreants are really lost

......The Edo's secured victory all the way. The following suit numbers are material evidences to buttress our claim to the land at Gelegele and environs

1. High Court of Justice, Benin Judgment delivered on the 22nd December 1978 by .Justice. Ekeruche J in Suit No. B/I44/1970.

2. Federal Court of Appeal judgment delivered on the 16th December1981 by Abdul Ganiy Olatunji· Agbaja and 2 others in Suit No. FCA/B/82/80.

3. Supreme Court unanimous Judgment delivered on the 19th ‘August 1983 by Muhamedu Lawai Uwais, former Chief Justice of the Federation and 4 others in Suit No. SC.131/1982"

To all the ijaw tenants in Edo state , you can continue crying on the internet as well as issuing threats, we rule Edo state and our command is your wish

It is a sacrilegious abomination in Edo land for ijaws peoples to be purporting another kingdom. I think, it is highly provocative and strongly condemn.

I urge Edo state Government to demolish such nefarious and barbaric act from Edoland .

Its like these ijaws peoples don't really know where they are from. I think, this is a personality and identity disorders.

Have this lost ppl from bayelsa forgotten that the issues of gelegele had been rule in favour of Benin people 3times by supreme court?

What is wrong with this Philistinian people?

Well there are Two ways to handle a goat either you eat it or you beat it with koboko... We know what to do!!

By Simon Ebegbulem

THE Ijaw Youth Council, IYC, and Ijaw elders in Edo State, weekend, raised an alarm over alleged plan by the state government to deploy soldiers to Gelegele and other Ijaw communities in the state, including Okikoro where they have their Egbesu shrine. They warned that such action will be a declaration of war against the Ijaw nation and will be resisted.

The state government, through the Special Adviser to the Governor on Communication, Mr Cusoe Osagie, said there are no such plans yet, adding, however, that the state government will ensure that lives and property of indigenes of the state living in those areas are protected in the event of any threat to peace in the area. “I am not aware of any deployment of soldiers to that area. However, the state government reserves the right to protect all law abiding citizens in the state. No breach of peace has been reported yet, but if and when that is done, the state will ensure that lives and properties are protected. If the IYC are law abiding people in the state then they have nothing to fear about,” he said National


President of IYC, Eric Omare, who raised the alarm during a press conference in Okomu, Ovia South West Local Government Area of Edo State, stressed that the Ijaw are not settlers in Edo State, “Ijaw people are indigenes and owners of the land that they occupy in Edo State. Let me also make this point, any threat or attack on Ijaw people in Edo State, is an attack against the entire Ijaw people in Nigeria. “Only this afternoon we got a message that the government of Edo State, in collaboration with the Benin Traditional Council, has perfected plans to send soldiers to Ijaw communities starting from Gelegele and the Egbesu shrine in Okikoro. We want to advice, if they do that it will be a declaration of war against the ijaw nation, they should not take the Ijaw nation’s silence for weakness. The Ijaw nation has the capacity to defend her people anywhere in Nigeria,” Omare said.
Reacting to the Supreme Court judgement which the Benin people said gave them the right to the land, Omare asserted: ¨I have read the judgement they are referring to between two individuals in Gelegele and Ughoton, that judgement has nothing to do with the entirety of the land owned by the Ijaw people of Edo state. You cannot use a land dispute between two individuals from two communities to rope the entire nation, it is ridiculous. So that judgement has no relevance to the issues at stake. We want to warn the government of Edo state to behave like a government and not an extension of the palace¨. Also speaking, Dr Tommy Kolodowei, Otunba Kalasowei of Ijaw Apoi nation, insisted ¨this land belong to my ancestors. The Apoi ancestors occupied this land for centuries. The Apoi in Ondo State today moved from Okomu to Ondo State. Now if Apoi people left Okomu to Ondo State and in Ondo state today, Apoi has 10 kings, all approved Kings and where they left from does not have a king, that does not make sense to anybody. I want Nigeria to solve that puzzle for me.’’

Information bring forth enlightenment and if such information is contested based on ego, then there is any basis. However, information I have given on this platform is supposed to be verified if some people feel bittered about the truth. The earlier the better for some people to get acquitted with the truth rather than the assumption without fact to counter my submission based on research . I am not one of those that engage in falsified info and I will reaffirm it again that Yoruba language was spoken in BINI court in the past!
