Too different To be one. I see at least 4 countries in that map.

As in eh
A country having the Italian flag with the ijaw coat of arms tells you what kinda country it is
Anioma and Rivers Igboid tribes have no share in this kinda nation.

You should know better that he's an impostor... Countless Anioma sons and daughters have made their position known on this issue

laudate:
Eewo! Wetin you write for here??! Abeg, wey my contact lens??! E be like say I dey dream.....

cc: _{cheruv, zendy}



Chai!! Chisos! Chukwu Nnà, bikō zọpùṭa ānyị!



Hehehe..... who was that ignoramus that was calling me names, when I told him that Anioma people have a dual heritage, and the Igbanke communities have Enogies as their traditional rulers??

rusher14:
That's the real issue.

They need the sea ports.

Unfortunately, that's the one thing nature hasn't given.

That's the rationale for PH and Akwa Ibom being seduced....if only.

Yes you're correct bkos we only need the sea...we don't even need the oil kos we can always buy from Gabon and equatorial Guinea
Moreover we've the coastline(its called Igwenga and its made up of opobo and andoni LGs) but this is where AKS comes in..kos without AKS,Igwenga would become an exclave of Biafra
Anyway if AKS fails to come with us,we can always pay the Ogoni and lavish them with generous concessions to ensure that our right of passage between Biafra and its Igwenga exclave is preserved and even protected by them while our marines stationed at opobo would ensure that there are no tricks from you guys

Ballmer:
You don't even have the right or power to force any part except the predominant Igbo state to join Biafra. Kurds Yoruba Fulani Slavs Berber, Arabs, Zulu are divided among several nationality n are living in peace. Nigeria owe you just 5 predominant Igbo speaking states

You're just blowing hot air!
Come and block the road when our army comes for SS Igbos

Goodboiyy:
Thanks for clarifying.. Matured respond..

Everybody loves defending the interest of there people, Same with me.. am just putting the record straight.. 1 luv

My clarification was possible through the grace the rising sun bestowed on me

In the same map by the colonizers, Aboh, Ukwale, Ika are all under the Western region (Benin Subdivision)
So Yes, the colonizers knew the history of these places quite well.

Too bad you can't read maps no wonder you've been arguing blindly all along
Anioma was unwillingly split between two provinces Benin(asaba) and Delta(aboh).even though the efforts of their leaders eg osadebei failed in getting the two divisions merged into a province(Anioma),at least its commendable that the Anioma registered their displeasure with that.
Yes the colonizers knew the history very well that's why you've aboh and asaba divisions.if they didn't, those divisions won't have existed. Before you start twisting again what I said,another look at the map would tell you that present day Ebonyi state was in ogoja province but the Igbo areas were in two divisions viz abakaliki and afikpo
Lemme summarize that map for you... Apart from owerre and onicha provinces,Igbos were also scattered in these provinces in their own divisions.
1]Ogoja province viz abakaliki and afikpo divisions.
2]Calabar province viz Enyong and andoni divisions
3]Rivers province viz ahoada division
4]Delta province viz aboh division
5]Benin province viz asaba division

So like you said,the colonizers knew the histories very well

Rayhut:
HYPOCRISY is when YORUBA people claim some part of Kwara, Kogi, Lagos as Yoruba land when Igbos claim the Igbo speaking areas of some part of Delta, Rivers and Edo as part of Igbo land, YORUBA'S will start shouting land grabbing, oil thief, is this not hypocrisy at highest level, if Igbo go with only 5 Igbo state and leave the rest of the Igbo land, then Yoruba should leave Lagos, Kwara, Kogi and parts of Ondo ilaje axis alone.

But seriously I'd not wanna bother now about those oil barbarian tribes beyond the Western frontier.when the time comes I'd put them where they belong

scholes0:
lool, when the Itsekiris come out to deny Biafra, it is because you have "never involved them", but when The Ijaws, Ibibios, etc come out to do the same, It becomes "Oh.... they are only coming out to please their paymasters"
Listen, no well thinking Ijaw man will leave their brothers in Ondo, Edo (Ovia SW), Delta (Ogbe Ijo, Burutu, Bomadi, Patani) and Western Bayelsa behind , just so as to form some phantom Banana republic with igbos

I want you to do something for me...look at this maps very well

You'd see that the colonizers knew ijo land very well and carved them into 3 divisions viz Western ijaw, brass and degema divisions. These areas are not needed by Igbos and even if they secede with us,we'd do as Malaysia did to Singapore by expelling these areas from Biafra.
Like I told Goodboiyy,you're just taking panadol over a phantom headache

Goodboiyy:
Igbo started it, They started the atrocities b4 Nigeria Army.. it was after the capture of Mid-West by Nigeria army that wen The asaba mascare happened (I was against that) . So stop crying fowl.. We choose not to talk about the atrocities of Biafra Army, But If you want me to tell you, I will.

so you better call your Kalu of a guy and tell him to Remove Warri from his map.. na that 1 they vex me and my people

You worry too much
Kanu is only doing his work we the children of Igboland know our boundaries and certainly warri isn't part of them. You as a deltan should know that the boundaries between Anioma and core delta is well delineated and nothing would change that.
When Biafra comes,all Edoids(your Jekri people inclusive) would find out that you've been drinking panadol over nothing

SUBMARINE:
Biafra is not by force, if you don't want to be part of it , fine and good.

I naenye onwe gi nsogbu rapu ndi ahu ñari ñari ka ha naekposhiari

Observant:
The hypocrisy of Niger-Delta is thinking that any igbo group in South-South will join (Bini, Esan, itserkiri, ijaw etc) in one country same as the hypocrisy is Baifra believing that itserkiri, ijaw etc of today will join them in one country

So stop the noise making, Biafra will not include you all neither will your niger- delta (which by the way Abia and IMO is currently part of ) include any igbo Group or igboid. Be it anioma etc.

Seriously these so called NDR people are deluded the only place am waiting for them is on the case of the SS Igbo territories

scholes0:
See you....
Who dash you Burutu, Bomadi and Patani LGA's?
Not even Ekeremor or Sagbama in Western Ijaw areas of Bayelsa are within your sights.

Next to come deny this silly movement will be the national spokespersons of the Ijaws and Ibibios. E go shock you
cc:Goodboiyy, Trickpusher

You're talking like an amateur in politics even if it were me I'd deny too after all why sacrifice your fortune when the show is yet to start
If you understand the Chinese technique called "face the east gate and attack the west gate" you'd understand my true position regarding those ijaw LGs and even the whole of ijawland

Goodboiyy:
have the Ijaws accepted your offer ?, or you are just assuming.. am speaking for my people, And the interest of my people, Tonye already made his intention know regarding Ijaw.. as for me No Urhobo/Itsekiri land should be included in your country. Its an insult to us.. We have nothing to benefit from your fake country.. I still remember what Biafra troops did to our fore fathers in 1967. we haven't forgotten anything.

1 luv.

Good and am happy the feeling is mutual after all who forgets the massacres meted out on Anioma, even by people who claim they're their neighbors I'd not even mention the other massacres perpetrated on other parts of Igbo and Ibibio land.
To tell you my deepest thoughts on the ijo I'd not even want them in Biafra kos our mentality and their differ on fundamental issues of life.our differences in Rivers state can be settled on the table or in a quick decisive war
The only non Igbos we share something with are the Mmoño(Ibibio) and they're the only SS non Igbo ethnicity I'd love to share Biafra with

Goodboiyy:
No matter wat you say , Niger Delta is what Nigeria and the world know us to be, Keep your eyes off Itsekiri land and Resources, No inch will be given to your selfish country..

Gbam!
Itsekiri has no place in Biafra!

fr3do:
Niger delta is nothing but a political construct
I don't understand what you mean by 'people of the Niger delta'

Hapu ha ka ha za ihe o bula soro ha as long as they don't ve eyes on the Igbos in their phantom SS

kingzizzy:
It has never worked and will never worked in Nigeria? I don't think many Nigerians remember that Biafra has already had its first Republic from 1967 to 1970. It's not like we are talking about something that has not been done before. As for the Itshekiris, they can stay committed to Nigeria if that is their wish. As long as they don't entertain the thought that the Delta-Igbos are part of their commitment


A lot of people are getting bothered over nothing

Goodboiyy this is what exactly am telling you

Goodboiyy:
I don talk am before, No inch of itsekiri land will be ceded into Biafra, Its just so funny how kalu included us into Biafra without our approval.. (I guess he his interested in Our Oil). this is the same kalu that hates Bini and Yoruba, we they Watch.

Cc : Tonyebarcanista , Scholes0, Freemanan, truckpusher,

Hope my cry on this forum since have be proven ?

Goodboiyy
Pay no heed to those putting Jekri or Sobo(urhobo) land in Biafra. Always have it the back of your mind that no Edoid tribe has a place in Biafra.
The only part of Delta inclusive in Biafra are Anioma and the 3 ijaw LGs of Delta South

atbu1983:
I.have said it many times in dis forum. Delta state was never in history part of eastern region or Biafra. Delta state was part of western region in d very beginning b4 it bcome midwest, bendel and delta.

No single territory in delta will be Biafra.
Anioma is not part of Eastern region and cannot be Biafra.

Anioma belong to niger Delta and south south and cannot be biafra. They are benin descendant who related with igbo over a long time .

This noisemaker sef !
Anioma sons and daughters have shut you up severally on that premise yet you still insist on peddling falsehood!
Anioma is Biafra and Biafra is Anioma.. Any attempts to stand in the way of Anioma people to join their brothers across the river would be crushed totally!

omenka:
I was so irritated the other day when some of them even carved out a chunk of Benue state into their imaginary country.

You just can't believe the arrogance!

Yes ooo
The Igbos in benue(Izzi) are coming with us whether you like it or not!
If you feel bad about it,be ready to don army uniforms and defend Benue state!

deflover:
make the gods strike you as you dey type for there..........make eriwi twist ya neck....i am niger deltan......urohobo....and i stand with biafra...we the people of NIGER DELTA stand with BIAFRA.....you think we have a better chance to be free if not through Biafra......another ogogoro fool wey no understand the game of numbers

Pls don't be angry with him he's too young to understand all these things.
Am with you on this,but as an Igbo I'd prefer a situation whereby once the SE/SS breaks out,the new country would divide again into Igbo and non Igbo parts.the Igboid part goes as Biafra while the non Igboid part goes by whatever name it chooses.

OK

amakaobiemeka:
the tears of an igbo been USED and DUMPED by the ss

Abeg abeg I no get your useless time

Moreover for your info,I don't recognize all these geopolitical nonsense you've in Nigeria all I see are ethnicities of which the 40M strong Igbos are part of.
When Biafra comes and any Igboid group is held back in Nigeria under the guise of a nonsense SS,I'd mobilize the entire Biafran army for a massive invasion of the SS and I hope you'd don your army fatigues to defend your useless SS
Riffraff!!

atbu1983:
ignore them

Ignore what
Mehn he has to clear his name oo

HopeAtHand:
Well, you aint getting any info from me soonest...go figure yourself.

This hope guy is an interesting personality.
When the time comes,I'd ensure that an army is assembled for the recovery of ikwerre,ogba,ekpahia while ensuring that we dip the Biafran Bible in the sea washing the shores of bonny,andoni and opobo.
I love ikwerres

ARO

This cultural group made up people called the Aros,though having their capital at Arochukwu(spear of God) are widespread around Igbo and Ibibio lands,even to Ekoiland and the Cameroons.
The Aros were originally merchants from other parts of Igboland(some sources say Nri) who came into the cross river basin around 920AD.they engaged in series of battles with the Ibibios called the Aro-Ibibio wars till around 1142AD when they defeated the Ibibio forces and captured Arochukwu.
Having consolidated their power at Arochukwu by 1100AD,they spread out into other parts of Ibibio and Igboland forming colonies and dealing actively on slaves. These activities gave rise to the Aro confederacy(1500-1902) which was the largest trading network as of then and was also a military alliance. The military alliance was crushed in the Anglo-Aro wars by the British army which led to the dissolution of the confederacy in 1902.
The Aros are ruled by the EzeAro and the people are grouped into 19 villages.

ABAKALEKE

This is regarded as the Igbo Northeast.The term Abakaleke is gotten from two Izzi terms "Aba" and "Nkaleke" .they are also part of the people who form the present day Ebonyi North and central senatorial zones.the people are good craftsmen and great farmers who specialize in yams,rice and maize production.there are currently 8 LGs containing them in Ebonyi and they're
1] Abakaliki
2] Ebonyi
3] Ezza North
4] Ezza South
5] Ikwo
6] Ishielu
7] Izzi
8] Ohaukwu

Due to the British conquest of Igboland(1890-1920),their people are also scattered around 4 LGs of Benue namely Ado,Obi,Oju and Okpokwu LGs.

Dee pazienza,
Thanks for the enlightenment you gave with the link you posted.before I'd have been eager to give out bonny for not having Igbo origins but now never!
The UmuOtam people of bonny and opobo are Igbos and nothing would change that.barca in his arguments have even proven that to the discerning mind.
I urge Igbos to support those people in their quest to maintain their identity as Igbos

pazienza:
Barcanista has finally lost his senses. But I am sure he can get his senses if he goes to Okoloma or Afam ukwu and tell the people that they are Ijaws, they will beat his senses back to him.

He thinks this is Ikwerre and Ogba scenario.

I kuola the guy shege!
Imagine claiming ndoki,bonny and opobo as ijaw
Mtschewww

dearpreye:
The unity of our two regions is very vital. I wish people were smarter.

Seriously

Jorussia:
[s]I am with tonyebarcanista on this issue.The submission of barcanista,represent at least 80% mindset of the people of ss as regards the current Biafra struggle. Igbos should realise that they can't claim port Harcourt as their own,because it does not belong to them.the Igbo nation should learn from the Yorubas,who have nv claimed the lands of the people of usen,utese,egbeta,akoko Edo,itshekiri,kabba,and other Yoruba speaking ethnic groups scattered across the country as their own. I am a proud Bini man,and i will not tolerate igbos trying to use blackmail of the Hausa/Fulani and Yoruba to coerce me into their Biafra struggle. As barcanista rightly said,the Igbos should respect our own opinion.German is the most widely spoken language in Austria,yet Germany, is not claiming Austria as his country. Ikweres,and other ethnic groups in Rivers speaking language similar with Igbo are not igbos,and they have a right to self identity. The general consensus in the ss,is that the se should plan their Biafra with the 5se states and leave the ss determine its future itself.The ss is presently at par with the Se,in terms of both human and infrastructure development, so we have more to lose if we decide to join Biafra[/s].

This is what I call BS!!
No Edoid has any portion in Biafra(whether Bini or urhobo or jekri) and nothing would stop us from leaving behind any Igboid tribe in our march

dearpreye:
My boss, na because of barcanista article una dey vex with us like this? Barcanista is just a voice and doesn't in any way represent the collective voice of the Ijaw nation as a whole.

I believe if Isaac Boro were alive today he most assuredly would have regretted the myopic and wicked role the Ijaws played against the Igbos in the civil war. He would have openly apologised to them as well.

In any case, the SS doesn't even know what it wants at the moment. SMH!

Broz seriously the thing dey vex
Igbos have a value system that places premium on the person which ensured his dignity and the same times enabled him to utilize his talents
If we decided to build empires like the Ofei' and Idu people had done,by now
1]all of Ibibioland west of river Cross would've be Igbonized
2]all of the Eastern ijos would've been Igbos by now
3]the Idu empire would've been destroyed and Bini city burnt to the ground
4]the igalas and idomas absorbed into Igboland.

We're a peaceful people... but it seems others are now taking us for granted.moreover I believe its not the opinion of all ijo people, so for now I'd let rest and focus on the issue at hand
