The truth is even some part of okrika , Morgan ndubisi , amadiama , and others speak Igbo so

mrvitalis:
Lamo the land comprehensive secondary school was built was and ikwerre village ...one of their sons was among the founders of ohaneze ...oga relax abeg

mrvitalis:
Na ikwerre I pity pass the aim of ijaws to separate from Igbo nation is go to take port Harcourt from them ...that's it nothing more and ikwerres are Falling for it

If ikwerres ever join Niger Delta republic boom port Harcourt would be ijawnised within 10 years ...they did it in the old rivers state that was how ikwerre lost borokiri and majority of port Harcourt township

yea you're right, I noticed I mistyped kalabari.

Eastlink:
Give a drunk Ogogoro and you'll become his god! But sorry, I have no Chelsea or Squadron to cure your hunger.

Na ban I get!

Eastlink:
Rants from a batcha dweller. When you finish the ogogoro you dey drink, na to return back to Bayelsa.

A Bayelsa INC member cannot tell me what goes on in my state.

ruggedtimi:
Opobo people always answering okrika, bonny and kalabari names

Eastlink:
[s]So says a Bayelsa landgrabber. Wike has already told you Ijaw clowns to do your worst. In his words "Thunder fire INC/IYC".

You have Bayelsa at your finger tips but greed dey push una to come rule Rivers. Nonsense cappings!
Until Kalabari/Okrika denounce their fraudulent Ijaw foolery or better still join you people in Bayelsa, nothing for them.

Rivers is Igboid and Ogonid. All Ijaws have been deported to Bayelsa since Abacha. Any foolish group claiming Ijaw in our dear state are inposters.[/s]

Chimaraymond455:
[s][There's no ijaw in River state,
I say it again, there's no ijaw in River state, amechi has finish fooling the ijaws, at the end wike became governor,
Wike will still fool them, at the end Felix obua take over,
Okirika, kalabari, should have been consider but as you ijaw have impose ijaw tag on them the chances of them becoming governor in River state is not guaranteed,
you are all babies when it comes to Rivers politics of today,

sentiment aside,
we know tribe who determines governor of river state,
this tribe is tribe who you ijaw declar as your worst enemy,
their votes are the reason uplands will rule you foverever,
Wike may fool you,
but at back they speak a central language which you ijaw does not understand,
they use this central language when campaigning in obigbo, Etchee, obiakpo, phaga, omoku, opobo, all the market places,
The will tell this people how ijaws treated them during old Rivers state.[/s]

joyandfaith:
Igbo are also settlers in Portharcourt. They are not original owner. Let us be frank with ourselves.

Ghester:
India is many times more populated than Nigeria. So its understandable if theres a dint of poverty there.
India is far far better than Nigeria. Stop disgracing yourself comrade

revolt:
the most stupid comment I've read on nairaland. Indians build nuclear weapons if you must know. Tanks planes ships submarines ...etc

joyandfaith:
This is what is causing Ukraine- Russia war now. Ukrainians are like itsekiri while Russians are like ijaw and urhobo.
Even if urhobo and ijaw become majority in warri, it doesn't make them owner of warri.

*The brutal words of "Richard Smith", famous British guitarist, during an interview...*

*ABOUT AFRICANS*
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
*I have been asked many times what I think of Africans, here is what I think of Africans, without language and without taboos.*

*They sell everything to the highest bidder, even the land. Then they poison themselves with everything that is available.*

*Their pastors or so called men of God. They rob their congregations and become billionaires in their very poor nations. They made the churches to become family inheritance...the father, the mother, children and other business interests.*

*"I am not racist because I do not believe for a single second that I am superior to a Black man". The difference with them is that, "we think of our descendants", we are calculators, we protect our interests and we'll kill for that if need be"*.

*"We are not emotional, we have passed this stage". If the Lion has pity on the Gazelle, it is he who will die of hunger. "They have lions at home, but they do not understand the laws of nature"!!!.*

*"For everything, they confide in Superstition and Religion".*
*The difference between the others and Blacks is, "while others reflect, Blacks do not think, they do not use their intellectual capacity and very few Blacks are analytical".*

*And when a few Black people pierce through, we admit them to our side or eliminate them in one way or another, most often, with the hand of other Blacks.*

*"We brought them our God and continuously invent fuzzy concepts to confuse them more".*

*In a hundred years, their descendants will be more slaves than they are now!!!*
*"They are already more unhappy than the generation of their parents", and they naively believe that numbers will be their strength.*

*"Just watch how they drown at sea to come icer to Europe". We conquered them with a few tens of ours and the active help of theirs leaders (Blacks selling their own for FAKE JOBS/PROSTITUTION)*

*We forced them to speak and write in our languages!!!..they even judge each other by how much one can speak like us. We will control their descendants more than we control them right now. (Happening already!)*

*lf given opportunity they are ready to abandon their land to come over as willing slaves, rather than with determination and commitment build their land*

*Other people understood our game, (like the Chinese, Indians, Koreans,etc.) they started to use the same technical knowledge as us to protect and dissuade, but the Blacks did not understand anything.*

*"I'm sorry to be so brutal in my submission. Nothing personal, I'm just plain."*

*(Richard Smith)*

*lf you have ever read this, please reflect on it.*

leave that fool alone...
I've been following this thread and I didn't say anything much about it because I know little about the western ijaw territories, I'm only familiar with central and eastern because I am a porthacourt boy born and bred.
okrika people and kalabari people of the ijaw Ethnic nationality are part owners of porthacourt, even a large section of the area are inhabitanted by my own clan men from Nembe-ijaw. Even River State and it's founding was championed more by central ijaw clans(Nembe, ibani, ogbia, okrika and kalabari men) we central ijaws intermarry more with the ikwerres (a part owner of porthacourt) so that big time mumu don't know anything.
And as for Warri, the little I know of it was that Ginuwa the first son of Oba Olua(14th King of Benin) migrated with his followers to Iwerre, funny fact was that they were ferried across the river by Ijaw people who could understand a little of their language and when he came to establish his itshekiri kingdom, he met people around (ijaws and urhobo) which happened in the 1400s. whereas the ijaws had already migrated from further west(even through Benin before it was even founded) to settle in that area because they stretch along the coast from Apoi in ondo to the akwa-ibom area of obolo. Awolowo the former western premier gave the itshekiri people their great influence by renaming the Nana of itshekiri title to Olu of Warri to strengthen the Yoruba influence (because Ginuwa the first itshekiri king was of Benin ancestry, and the Benin people have an affiliation with the yorubas)
It is just like an atletico Madrid fan supporting Valencia IF it faces Manchester United in the UCL final) because of the Spanish ties.
Awolowo gave them the influence they have now.

PrinceZeke:
I know bro, Okrikans kalabaris,Billes, Degema, Nkoro, Odual, Engenni, and co are all ijaws in Rivers state,I'm only giving that Lost Jew from Jerusalem the attention seeking the Otokoto is looking for.

Abaman001:
Lol... little kids and chest beating bragging on nairaland, all the lgas you mentioned is not up to 4 communities in just Obio-Akpor not to mention all the LGAs in Eli-Iwhuruohna plus all igbo-Id LGAs in Rivers state, even though you wrongly included "Abua" in ur foolishness, even Opobo is not not ijaw forget the names some of them bears, I know have one in my compound and they know their rout not to be ijaw but Igbos, infact there is nothing like ijaw in Rivers State, what we have in Rivers state is some few people living in a swanpy areas in Rivers State called Kalabari, the few Okirikans, and few other minority group in the state, that you Kalabaris usually claim as ijaws when you want to challenge those greater than you...but the truth is that when the time come you will understand that there is nothing like ijaw in Rives state and you few Kalabaris are standing alone in Rivers State, this is not 1956 that Rivers State and Bayelsa were together, this is 2022 so you guys need to wake up to the reality.....

Allen102:
Waiting Asari don talk?

Allen102:
What do you mean by ijaws are dragging Rivers State with the folks there? Mr man, Rivers State Is not an Igbo state neither does it belongs to ikwerre people. Rivers belongs to Rivers people including the ijaws here,and ijaws own half of Rivers State. So what nonsense are you talking about? Na kalabari people they play with una, nai make una mouth they sharp.

jamesversion:
@ Remiel, Lothaire, Blacksaints et al, the decision of Ikwerre not to Identify with Igbos is not the reason why dissimilar ethnicities with nothing in common linguistically now refer to themselves as Ijaw.

Count 1 - 10 in Izon spoken in Southern Ijaw in bayelsa.
Count same in Andoni.
Repeat in Abua, Engenni and Kalabari. Tell me if they are similar.

The Portuguese and English colonialist are responsible for your dress codes cos you have no mill anywhere in Ijawland where you produce wrappers, hats or walking sticks. These were introduced to almost every riverine community by the colonialists. Same is obtainable in Ishekiri. Using dress codes as the reason for ijawness is clownish. And saying because you are a fisherman then everyone by the riverside whose occupation is fishing is also a joke as hunting in the forest cannot be used as a yardstick for ethnicity in the uplands.

Why you guys seem so scared to be stand as indepedent ethnicities is quite dubious. The Ogonis are standing alone, same as Itsekiri, Isoko, Ikwerre, Ibibio, Urhobo, bini etc.

Suddenly Egbesu is now more relevant to the Okrikans than their acclaimed Finibeso. So the reverrred Akaso of the Kalabari now plays second fiddle. All because of the Inability and/or fear to stand alone as an independent ethnicity and solicit for relevance in the Nigerian space.

It's a shame.

If you dont have a language that everyone understands, then how are you a cultural organisation. Seems you are truly a cultural franchise as insinuated by some.

Allen102:
Still begs the question, how is it your business? And why are you even bother about the matter? confused people like ikwerres who don't know where they come from shouldn't be interfering with our business. The last time I checked,we have no business with fake Igbo abi na fake bini wannabes.

Yujin:
There's no time I mentioned Ibiibio in my statements about Okrika. As for Igbo, the Igbo language still spoken in Okrika is a testament to the history of Igbos found in some of the communities that are currently under Okrika LGA.
