Nigeriabiafra80:
Who are the Niger delta?

The newest ethnic group in town. Please respect their identity

Muna4real:
And at last, he became better than you in all aspects of life .

How can you be comparing Ojukwu to one idiot with no surname you met on a faceless forum. This is even an insult to Ojukwu

All hail the nightmare of injustice and the face of freedom.

Umu obiligbo don win award oh . Never say it is impossible. The most igbotic artist don win award. This is incredible

That was why you were given a hero's welcome after years of exile

We understood why you fought. It was for our dignity

So far an Igbo man lives, Ojukwu lives on.
Ikemba Igbo nile.
Dike, ọnuọ onaa.
Ama njideta Ojukwu n'aka ma ọsọ ekwensu ma na ọsọrọ ya.
Eze NdIgbo gburugburu.

Juliusmalema:
Well, this is childish.

Do you see or take everything as fight?

Just a taste and you are dancing makkossa.
I thought they said you people like pepper

By the war, Mr OP add some sauce for those that like pepper.
Especially those from the peppery region.
Make the news pepper them

See as oil just resurface left, right and center in SE. And to think of the fact that oil is becoming useless, gas appeared of nowhere.
Nobody saw this coming, I'm shocked in behalf of the we the south south and real Niger Deltans crew.
Reason why I'm shocked is simple, the oil discovered in SE is treated differently because accompanying refineries are built in the host community unlike in the region they practiced environmental pollution.
I guess it comes with the privilege of being one of the majority

adadike:
Ikwerre or Rikwerre?

OH, I forgot it is actually Rikwerre for more clarity.
Please the people of Rikwerre I apologize for tampering with your unique Bini identity

AlexBells:
Wike is a Bikerre man just like you, Ikwerre is Igbo come with your evidence not talk

And you think you have the power to tell people who they are?
The right of identification and association is a God given exclusive power of the individual or group in question.
Ikwerre is not and will never be Igbo.
Deal with it.

AlexBells:
She is from Bikerre if it Rejeoma Ronuma from Reneka, differentiate between the Ikwerre and the Bikerre

Three is no difference. Ikwerre is a distinct ethnicity. I'm not sure you've been around them before.
They are mostly proud of their Benin heritage

AlexBells:
This matter serious oo, pastor sef chuck mouth, please pray for Bikerre people, they had been showing some violent and murderous attitudes lately, and bless the Ikwerre Igbos for me bikonu

There is nothing like Ikwerre Igbo. We only have real ikwerre like Wike that are proud of their Benin heritage and few that denies it for political gain

Fahdiga:
She is bearing Igbo name but Yoro Muslims said Ikwere is not Igbo

Allow Ndigbo to speak in matters concerning them.
Her name is REJEOMA RONUMA and she is from Ikwerre.
Take Note

Congratulations REJEOMA RONUMA.
Ikwerre people overdid themselves this time.

The tribe that littered the whole world with Igbo is who would cower hearing Igbo? Nigeria is your saving grace!

Today we [Niger Deltans, including Ijaws] have refused to sell you into slavery. Look at how far Libya is , yet the desire to be slaves or to middle men in the slave trade is still pushing you Igbo to go as far as Libya to sell your Kith and kin.

Igbo that sold their people for tobacco (snuff ) want to talk in front of their masters! No matter all your attempts to bring the Ijaw down since you managed to meet the Europeans has always failed and will continue to fail.

We are lord over you and it will remain so and nothing will ever change that!

Yeah, littered all over the world possessing our possession. It is only great nations that move past their region to claim more, examples are the ancient Arabs, turks, Romans, Mongolians, Jews, ancient Portuguese, ancient English people and now Ndigbo.
You can't say you are great while hiding under your mother's bed.
Now the Golden question is this, why is your tribe small?
There is a saying amongst your people those days that when the Igbos come you hide your children else you become childless

Limitless72:
Nwannem, you don't have to harsh on this folks like that....

My only problem with them is that, they believe the great Igbo tribe needs them to survive.

Let's just let them be.
They can go form their Niger Delta republic in peace. But they shouldn't even dare take our fellow Igbos with them

Igbos ancestral land belongs to the igbos. If Nigeria government like they cede Aba to Port Harcourt.

These ijaws sometimes don't want to allow sleeping dogs to lie or even die if the case be.
There is a reason we manage to avoid telling the world our ordeal with them inorder to save them some pride.
Imagine a tribe that cower when an individual speaks Igbo Language in the past. A tribe that exchange their virgins for survival are pointing fingers at Ndigbo as if we are mates.
If the guy doesn't take time, I will tell him the rest of what his ancestors won't like him to hear

PHijo:
Do you even have a culture to start with?

It is only thieves who annex, like you tried annex Ore, in present day Ondo state and lost the war.

No wonder you are not tolerated in the North!

I don't need weak culture of showcasing nonsense.
My culture is to dominate. It is imbedded in the ọfọ God gave to us

PHijo:
Asari has told you, you will remain our slaves! That's your fate.

The fate you suffered in the Nigeria/ Biafra conflict is the same fate you will suffer. Our ports will be where all of you drown if you dream of coming close.

Isn't it shameful you sold your whole communities to "lesser humans "? Foolish people!

Don't go and build your communities, looking for other people's communities to live in.

Who sold who to who?
Arọ Confederacy were merchants sending slaves to Northern Igboland and guess were the slaves came from?
They were from Non igbo speaking people remaining near southern Igboland, reason the remaining ran into the creeks.
Oga we bought all of your ancestors and you are struggling with 1.5 million at this moment that is supposed to be more than 200 years after.
So if you do the math. The number of your people that managed to survive being marketed in Northern Igboland were around 20,000 and we are coming for the rest.
Its our God given right to own you people

PHijo:
Jubo Jubogha was an Ijaw man, an Ibani man to be precise. That's the identity he died with. That's the language he spoke, that is the culture he represented.

That is your concern. All we know is that we have a stake in both Bonny and Opobo and a population of disunited 1.5 million can't stop us. Once we have a stake, we take all. No matter how long it takes Bonny and Opobo will be annexed, whether you people like it or not.
Thank God we are dumping Christianity and returning to the good old ways

djon78:
At the bolded
I remember an uncle of mine he is early 80s now.
He was telling me of his dad always said we should thank God for the white man coming. That his dad's mum who lived in 1800s said they no born you well to even go to a neighboring Igbo town or far towns for market and night catches up with you. It's either you are dead or sold as slave

This is the reason why we don't tell Igbo history in open like others because we did things in the past. Most of which I won't say here no matter the temptation.
Ask your elders how they got the land you call ancestral land and that will give you insight how those days were

PHijo:
We don't talk too much! Only Chief Asari-Dokubo is enough to deal with all of you. No evidence Jubo Jubogha is Igbo. He could as well be from several other ethnic nations within that vicinity. If you Igbo had shame you wouldn't even lay claims to him. Igboland was primarily vassal to us. That's a fact.

LOL, humans are talking and Ijaw wey no get land dey put mouth.
Oga let me be blunt about it since you don't like things being said on code. We used almost all your kinsmen for ritual and your Virgin girls for preparation of all these Alusi you see in Igboland and people like me are unapologetic about it.
As for Asari and all those that laughed at the wounded lion (Ndigbo after war) should brace up, we are back.
That your remaining creek will be used as our port now that we know the use whether you like it or not.
You think every Igbo man is as emotional as ipob to consider you lesser humans feelings.
Oga we own your people and use you guys the way we like

jamesversion:
Bonny, Obuaku, Oyigbo, Onelga are all in Rivers. Leave Rivers State alone.

Obuaku is in Abia state. Abi you wan trespass on Igbo territory?
Before you do so go and ask your ancestors why they live in creeks and not land and also who chased them away from the land

post=96116829:
There is no gas in Yoruba land stop fooling yourself here

Those guys can just fool themselves for no reason. They will just make up fake statistics of resources in yoruba land and use it as basis for argument while in truth they know they have absolutely nothing

PHijo:
Magnus Abe never said that, if he even said that, as an Ogoni man he has not right to talk about Ijaw issues.

Even Wike has told you he is not Igbo. Stay off Rivers Ijaw like Bonny etc. You don't know the history of Oyigbo. It was one of the Ijaw outposts Okrika and Bonny traders used as a transit point for Igbo slaves prior to moving them to Okrika and then Bonny before they are eventually sold for export.

I wonder why you guys can't respect your boundaries. We don't want you, accept your fate.

Tamuno help your children abeg!

LOL, see the way he is laying it in sequence as if Ijaws ever had upper hand against Ndigbo.
My bro go and ask any of your old men the reason why your tribe is small.
Where do you think those ohu in Igboland come from?
Where do you think those used for sacrifice in Mbaise, Arọ, ohafia, Abam and other southern Igbo clans come from?
It is only an Igbo that can enslave a fellow Igbo. Even jaja of Opobo was captured by a fellow Igbo from his hometown in ama Igbo and sold to ibani Chiefs.
There is no record where non igbo African crossed over to Igbo territory and came back alive before the coming of the Europeans.
Quote me anywhere

LukasPodolski:
this picture didn't proof anything.

firstly this is different from our own Agbada.

secondly, what does this picture proof? eh?

idiot.

I don't know why the truth attracts insult from men of lower understanding.
So if I bring suit and make the jacket shorter it will automatically become an Igbo attire.
My friend think.
Now back to ibn Rashid words that the conquered adopts the conquerors dressing, language, motto and religion. Your precious Agbada was adopted from the hausa baban Riga which you can confirm from this link that was compiled by your fellow yoruba. You can't change history my dear.
Hausa is a superior ethnicity from where you people are. Which is the reason they don't see you people as threat. They even gave you guys Islam you can't lead prayers where a fulani man is.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agbada

LukasPodolski:
There is nothing like Ilorin north, idiot.

we only have Ilorin east, Ilorin South, Ilorin west and some part Ilorin falls in Asa.

And Ilorin city falls in Kwara Central not Kwara South.

this is what happens when you spend 20hours/day on radio Biafra, Empty brain.

a demented ibo trying to rewrite another man's history.

It was a typo, I meant Ilorin East. The home of Fulanis.
You seriously think you can insult the Fulanis out of their permanent settlement in Ilorin east.
Sometimes you people think that wishes is the greatest arsenal in life. Go to Ilorin east and see them jejely living in their mud houses and riding camels up and down

Chai! iron man.
Trump is the real MVP

OfoIgbo:
According to the Nris, there were only 66 Igbo kingdoms before the coming of the Europeans.

Ogwashiuku, Agbor, Onitsha, Uruala, Nnewi, Oraeri, NRI e.t.c

Most towns were governed by the Nze na Ozo society or council of elders

That is where you get it wrong, apart Agbor, Onitsha, Ogwashi ukwu and ụmụ eri the rest are Republics. Yes they have Nze na Ọzọ but you know that a community has lots of those and in some, one represents a sub clan in the community and then goes with the title Obi.
As for the Nnewi issue, you have a good point because I believe that their modern history of severing many links including that of the origin of Uruagu Nnewi was based on political importance. After all the anaedo clan is made up of Nnewi, ịchị and Oraifite signing the Ikenga, obi and ifite/ihite which is a sign of Nri and originality of a true Igbo clan

LukasPodolski:
The word Agbada is even a Yoruba word, how can a sensible fellow say we copied something that is originally ours? What is the Hausa name for the attire?

The first picture is Obasanjo together with Jimmy Carter, the former American president in Aso Oke/Aso ofi.

Aso Ofi/Aso oke is the traditional Yoruba fabric.

Picture two is a clear photo or Agbada o'ni aso oke/aso ofi

We use FILA while in crappy picture you posted, the men wore what Muslims called "LAWANI"

the third picture is Agbada sewed with a modern African fabric.

Dunderhead head everywhere.

So me buying suit and giving it an Igbo name will automatically change it from being an European clothing to igbo one.
Look below and see where you got your dressing from
