ondo. . . . . ijaw land?   .LOL

KnowAll:
Read the top bit about Ilaje LG of Ondo State which is also the coastal area of Ondo State many people have a misconception that the coastal areas of Ondo State is Ijaw which is not only far-fetched but a fallacy. 

I know say e they pain u say Ikwerres who are sub-igbos are denying their  Igbo heritage making your bleep**g Biafra country a landlocked, impoverish and erosion prone place, a place fit only for the damned.

Shock:
There are strong facts that points to IRAN, and its government is impeding the course of investigation. , , and you term it propaganda?

Would you rather we blame the Chinese instead?

T9ksy:
@ Chyz,

so who does? Abi the weapons just fall from the sky and miraculously found itself at the Nigerian port?
Abegi, think before posting jo!!!

debosky:
The arms were made in Iran (as shown on the weapons), the arms were exported from Iran (as shown by the shipping documents), the shipper is Iranian (as confirmed by the shipping agent) and it is 'propaganda'?

What evidence do you have that it is propaganda?  Intelligence is sorely lacking

KnowAll:
There is sand formation at the Western part of the Local Government extending from the Lekki peninsula in Lagos State to Araromi Sea-side and Zion Lepe, Agba to Etugbo and Ipare all, Mahin and Ugbonla the Eastern part of the Local Government Area can boast of the largest coconut plantation in West Africa. Ilaje Local Government is the largest local Government in Ondo State in terms of its landmass. According to the 1991 National Population Census, the Local Government is one of the most populated in Ondo State, with a population figure of two hundred and twenty seven thousand and thirty four (277,034. it has a shoreline covering about 180km thereby making Ondo State, a state with the longest coastline in Nigeria, Crude oil, which is the mainstay of the Nigerian economy.

Traditionally, it is grouped into 8 kingdoms namely: Mahin land under His Royal Majesty, Amapetu of Mahin, Ugboland which is under His Roayl Majesty Olugbo of Ugbo Kingdom. Aheri land under the Maporure and Etikan land under the Onikan of Etikan, Odonla land under the Alagho of Odonla, Obenla land under the Olubo of Obenla, Obe Ogbaro land under the Odoka of Obe Ogbaro, Igbokoda under the Olu of Iggbokoda and Igboegunrin under the Odede of Igboegunrin.


@ chyz

[b]Lekki peninsula in Lagos State to Araromi Sea-side   - does Araromi sound like an Ijaw name to you, Ijaw's in Ondo State are visitors and are not natives. Yorubas are the majority in Ilaje.

Yoruba Kings


Olu of Iggbokoda - capital of LG and largest town - Yoruba

Ugboland which is under His Roayl Majesty Olugbo of Ugbo Kingdom.  - Yoruba

Etikan land under the Onikan of Etikan - Yoruba

Odonla land under the Alagho of Odonla- Yoruba

Obenla land under the Olubo of Obenla- Yoruba

Igboegunrin under the Odede of Igboegunrin - Yoruba


I am not sure of the following:


Amapetu of Mahin - Not sure if they are Yorubas or ijo

Aheri land under the Maporure - not sure if they are yorubas or ijo

You can see out of 7 kings in Ilaje about 5 are Yorubas where u get the idea the area is ijaw is a mystery[/b]

ILAJE LOCAL GOVERNMENT, ONDO STATE NIGERIA Sunday, 11 July 2010 09:06 Coastal NEWS


The New Odua City should be around the coastal area of Ondo State. Ondo State is only about 30 km from Lekki in Lagos State.

TOURISM

Ilaje Local Government is a National tourist attraction with a shore line of about 180km in Nigeria, the coastline of the Local Government, coupled with the green grass and shrubs and Atlantic Ocean, presents it beautiful sight and weather conducive for leisure, such beautiful sight and cool wind coupled favourably with what operates in Jamaica and other places in the Caribbean where people troupe to for rest and leisure.



This can be better developed for leisure and economic purposes, Civilization started around the waters. Therefore, numerous developments in water transportation and house construction on partially or completely flooded areas are also veritable tourist attraction. Lekki Peninsula in Lagos State to Ilaje Local Government along the Atlantic Coast is about 30kilometres when proposes coastal road from Lagos is completed. On road, Igbokoda to Lagos is less than three hours drive through part of Benin. Shagamu and later Lagos Ibadan expressways. It is possible to supervise business in Igbokoda while resident in Lagos.


Casual visit to the main beach of the Local Government Headquarters (Igbokoda) reveals an imposing sculpture of a fisherman which renders a first caller agog. Also present at the main beach are hundreds of beautiful decorated ferry boats as though preparing for a boat race frusta, yet are essentially, to and from the Riverine arrears daily.

Ibime:
Who told you all the Governors were military?

Melford Okilo and Rufus Ada George were civilian, and the 1992 election between Ada George and Eric Aso was split down ethnic lines, with uplanders voting for Aso and riverines voting for Ada George.

You are right that creation of Bayelsa changed the dynamic, however Ikwerre cannot wield power in Rivers State without first cornering the whole Igboid vote.

Ikwerre is less than Kalabari in population. Don't let their presence in PH deceive you. Kalabari have as many people in PH as they do back home.

Ibime:
@ Abagworo:


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivers_State

Emohua is 200,000
Obio Akpor is 464,000
Ikwerre is 190,000
PH (including Okrika) is 540,000

If 90% of Emohua and Ikwerre are Ikwerre citizens, then Ikwerre would have about 360,000.  (BTW, 90% is waaay too optimistic)

If 40% of Obio Akpor is Ikwerre, then population is circa 200,000.

Not more than 20% of PH is Ikwerre since PH LGA includes Okrika land, and most of Ikwerre land is inhabited by foreigners, so we have circa 140,000.

Altogether, we talking sum total of 800,000 at the most optimistic.

Out of total of 6.7m in Rivers State, we can see why Ikwerre failed to win Governorship in Rivers State till Amaechi.


Now Kalabari has about 600,000 people in Kalabari land. (of which at least 500,000 are Kalabari)

You can also include similar amount of Kalabari living in PH.

Hence I do not think Ikwerre have more population than Kalabari.

excoba101:
The reason i asked if you are a politician is that you seem to talk like you have access to a reliable source. Just like what you said above.

DapoBear:
Just because the US and UN would not support the north doesn't mean they wouldn't seek to control Delta and Rivers themselves. And if Biafra doesn't get Rivers at least, it doesn't really sound like a very interesting nation to live in. Landlocked, overpopulated, not enough farmland, no oil wealth.  Not the brightest future, imo

excoba101:
What do you think of this?

excoba101:
Biafra might be a cause for alarm and invites in UN/US army just the way Islamic vs Kurd in Iraq, Israeli Jews and Palestine in Israel etc.

excoba101:
Are you a politician?

excoba101:
LMAO   Just the way this girl guy always say "a  typical ibo man" makes me laugh

@chyz
I am from bendel and you know the pride of the Benin people. Do you think they will let bendel (BENIN/DELTA) go with biafra or form another country of their own? Just asking. Maybe complications like this will cause Nigeria never to divide.  

bk.babe97y:
Soon, u'll see Chyz for what he really is: A soft spoken, but hard hearted, lying, deceitful, Biafran to the core. Just a typical Ibo man, I guess. . . . .

excoba101:
is benin and delta (bendel) part of biafra?

alj harem:
gbam

Allah bless u jason

God bless u jason

jason12345:
call me whatever! i have said what i want ! if you think you can take the niger-delta to your biafra without a war, then you are joking.

what the point of us ""the so called minorities"" coming to your biafra and be minorities? is there reason to that? i have made my contribution.

i want different people from different ethnic groups to make their contribution without the fear of being insulted or accused.

anyway, [size=15pt] biafrans want to leave nigeria because they think they are not running things so they want to form their country and fixing in the minorities to rule over. it will not,and never happen![/size]

jason12345:
chyz, why are you mentioning my name?

a topic was brought up and i gave my point of view (which is neutral) and you think i am tribalist?

so if anyone opposes biafrans or say the truth, they must be yoruba? na wa ooo for you people!
i repeat

[size=15pt]I PERSONALLY THINK BIAFRA SHOULD GO (IF THEY WANT TO) SO PEACE CAN REIGN!

BIAFRANS WOULD BE HAPPY AND NIGERIANS WOULD BE HAPPY . BUT DON'T YOU EVER THINK YOU CAN TAKE WHAT IS NOT YOURS!!![/size] thats is ND and make us a minority in your utopian city.

goodluck and peace out!

alj harem:
ok i would sorry for making u angry

but northerners in ebonyi states are not biafrans

i have a friend that is fulani and lived in ebonyi state all his life, and there are a lot of northern communties in ebonyi and rivers states (arewa states)

so as long as u do not categorise them as biafrans or biafra state, it is ok by me

DapoBear:
It isn't a big deal, tbh. But it seems a bit moronic to feign outrage when you already know someone's position, as chyz does; we've discussed this at least twice before. Either moronic or just dishonest.

Personally I'm pro self-determination. People should be able to vote and decide who then want to join up with. But obviously Nigeria as a whole is not going to feel this same way.

DapoBear:
Heh, alright. Hopefully you won't complain if that occurs to you.
