I know so many people will come for me if this post makes FP.

But shouldn't we really ask ourselves... Why do we hardly see Westerners or Northerners being maltreated in other countries?
Why are they not accused of theft, fraud, e.t.c?

If we say it's witch-hunting, then how have other tribes escaped witch-hunting in other countries?

Datazone:
Clearly you are ignorant of the history of Warri. Warri as a word is gotten from the Itsekiri word Iwerre. It was corrupted by European explorers. It is foolish to say that the people who has the name can't address their king or area as Warri. Again, Warri has three LGA, Warri South, Warri North and Warri Southwest. It is only the Itsekiris that are native of all three LGA. It is only in Warri South LGA that you'll find Urhobos of Agbassa and Okere. And you are a typical liar to say Itsekiris are not up to 30% of warri. And your illiteracy stinks, is there any king in delta with a palace as big as Olu of Warri? And show me any document that suggests that the space where the olu of warri occupies is rented. A great Urhobo historian, Salubi, only talked about a town hall that was rented. Stop peddling lies in a faceless forum. In case you don't know less than 2% of Urhobo nation are natives of Warri.

Ghostwon651:
Don't be fooled by the yorubas, Itsikiri are not Yoruba, they are Edo. And the Olu is the Olu if Warri ! That is the title he had in precolonial days.
The way you Nigerians think is very disturbing, it is as if you throw logics out of the window before talking.

They are Yoruba, study your history.

Itsekiri is Yoruba- CAN President

Ayodele Joseph Oritsegbubemi Oritsejafor, fondly called Papa Ayo Oritsejafor by many of his numerous admirers is the founding and Senior Pastor of Word of Life Bible Church, located in Warri, Nigeria. He became the national president of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) on the 7 February 2005. He was elected President of CAN, Christian Association of Nigeria.

In this interview, he speaks about the history of Itsekiri people and other topics:
Q: What would you say is unique about the Itsekiri people of Warri kingdom?
The first Christian missionary that came here was the Roman Catholic. In fact, the first contact with a white man was here. The Itsekiri people are the first contact with the white man in Nigeria.
By the way, the second thing that many people in Itsekiri may not elaborate on is that Itsekiri is Yoruba. The Itsekiri language is a dialect of the Yoruba language. Itsekiri people migrated from Yorubaland. Some of them migrated directly from Ife.
Some migrated from the riverine areas of Ijebu, and some migrated from Ondo. Some of them especially the ones that migrated from Ife, they migrated with the Ilaje. The Ilaje stopped at a point but the Itsekiri continued and they ended up here in Warri.
Now, a few of them came from Benin Kingdom. The Benin connection came from the palace. The palace connection is still Yoruba at the end of the day because the first Oba of Benin was a son of Oduduwa.
The first Olu of Warri was a first son of the Oba of Benin. That’s the Benin connection. The Itsekiri, when they moved here, they came with their Ife.
The upland Yoruba called it Ifa. We are the waterside Yoruba. Our people will call the other Yoruba, Iroke. They called the Oyo people Iroke and other Yoruba Iroke but the Yoruba called them Ara Oke. This history is very important because they are dying away. In those days, the Ife which the mainstream Yoruba will call Ifa was the god of divination.
The Ife had told the Itsekiri people that a prince would come and become their king. Therefore, they stayed without a king for a very long time, in fact for many years.
They were waiting for that prince, eventually this prince who was the first son of the Oba of Benin was a grandson of Oduduwa. He was very proud so he had a lot of problems with Benin chiefs.
They were going to kill him. His father who was the Oba of Benin, you know he was supposed to be the Oba of Benin after his father, but for his own protection, his father had to get him out of Benin Kingdom. He gave him about 70 chiefs.
They smuggled him out, put him in a boat and they performed all kinds of rituals. They put him in a boat then sailed to Warri. When he ended up here, remember our own people were waiting for a prince, they have been waiting for years.
When he arrived, they consulted their Ife again and the Ife says, “This is the prince”. So, that was how he became the first Olu of Warri. That was how the first Olu of Warri came about.
In those days, in the palace, in Warri kingdom, they used to speak Yoruba. The palace was 100% Yoruba. Don’t forget the Itsekiri language is a dialect of Yoruba land and therefore a Yoruba language as it is to this day.
The Benin are not Yoruba; they are descendants of Oduduwa but the palace is Yoruba

abnot:
Brain drain how . You think the crop of public servants you’ll find in NNPc and DPR have what it takes to secure an interview in an IOC ? Those guys are only workin there due to the perks . Nigerian government spends a lot on recurrent expenditure and if things are not changed the country will remain underdeveloped with substandard infrastructure and no other means of new income.

NextBuhari:
And you think the most effective way to curb corruption and kleptomania is to maintain the present wide disparity in the salaries of these parastatals? And you think Nigerians who work in these privileged agencies are the best brains we have in this country?

galaxy2020:
Especially, establishments like Nnpc, CBN, Firs, CAC, etc, the salary gap with other parastatals and ministeries is wicked.

doggedfighter:

Fifteen men, women and children were also hurt in the attack while another 100 were evacuated after gunmen dressed as police officers walked into the hospital, threw grenades and opened fire.

jolyment:
Are you saying they have to travel to Abuja before you can process their salaries? What is the importance of online platform then? Now you have not paid April salary to workers on 11th May in tertiary institutions despite the fact that they enrolled in IPPIS. You better say the truth.

vivalavida:
I am using the AVR port now. Called a technician from the company and he said I will change panel for 12k. Workmanship and tfare to my place 6k.

vivalavida:
I don't know which section to actually post this.
I use a polystar 32 inch led TV. Have used it for almost two years.
Came back on Monday and switched it on. It came on but was no longer connecting to my GOTV and my home theater. These two are connected to the TV via HDMI cables.
I have contacted someone and he said it is the panel that needs to be changed and that will be 12k. This is apart from the workmanship.
Please has anyone had this sort of issues with their LED TV here?

We can't!

Sex is the building block of the society; The fact that it's been underutilized and abused indicates humanity won't go extinct soon but curbing sexual immorality is tantamount to human extinction.

Sammy07:

Metaphysical, legendhero, itooworwor.

Sammy07:

tysontim:
You are not Igbo we know, wen someone starts his stetement with all due respect that person means to disrespect that person.

Yoruba or Igbo will get presidency come 2023 there is nothing North can do. Igbos won't support North to spit the Yorubas.

SW and SE have already agreed

SangoOlukosoOba:
Have been hearing this sentence for the past 20 years.

Empty chest beating.

Be boasting about a region that has no city in all of it. Is it not that Same South-East littered with villages and small towns.

You buy all the land Joke of the century!

Empty barrels!

SangoOlukosoOba:
You watch too much cartoons.

In the first place, their can never be an Igbo president. Not in 50 years time.
