One question that comes to mind is: did any Polish citizen sell those people as slaves to the British ?.
The answer is no, someone out there in UK planned and funded the system that got the slaves to where they are now.
It was the same thing that happened with Western slave ships taking African slaves.They raided African sea shores and the remote lands to capture slaves ,
now they are saying Africans sold heir own people.

Did you even bother to read the article?

Paradoxie:
The earlier the Nigerian youth dissolve the ethnic divide, the better for the sanity of our dear nation.

The idiot you quoted as one of the biggest ethnic bigot on the continent and igbo supremacist(no harm intended)

Which stupid promise kept road that has been under construction for over 10yrs, it is now worse than it's former state. Lagosians on that route are suffering. This stupid government even when on to flag off what has been u/c for years

God would punish anybody that quotes me shouting afonja/ipod or apc/pdp is like you people don't won't to have sense. These old men are carefully sinking this nation while y'all internet keyboard warriors be shouting afonja/ipod

Nigeria is not a Fulani colony. If you need a land for your cattle rearing business buy it!!! Don't take away people's ancestral lands

I'm kinda not impressed with the building.

Just saying tho

Awusa almajiri and afonja mozlem pipo can you find their hijab because I can't

He might actually be right about that one. Why else would a 33yr old man penetrate a 12yr old so effortlessly

[b] 2)IGBUKU-There is also this claim Igbuku is an Isoko community in Ndokwa East. It was never in the past and cannot be the situation. Both Isoko and Aboh(Igbo) are spoken but the community was founded by a group of migrants from Afor, an ancient town in Ndokwa East in about 1800. They first settled near the black-colored Ebe lake where they moved over the Ase Creek to the present site. Thereafter, a group of Ijaw people from Ondoni, a town in Bayelsa State came to join them. These Ijaw people within a generation were assimilated as Aboh people. Then in about 1870, some Isoko people mainly from Ellu led by one Onabuke came to join them. These Ellu people were followed by other Isoko and even Ukwuani people. Thus Igbuku has a diverse origin when compared to Ibrede though its smaller. There is little or nothing in Igbuku to suggest its an Isoko clan. There are cults of masquerades which is not a feature of the culture in Isoko and it abounds in Igbuku. The ruler of Igbuku is titled “OZU” and the present occupant is HRH, Eze Blessing Chukuka Omem. His royal greeting is AGBADOGU. Apart from Igbuku town , Igbuku villages include Ovara, Oko, Oka, Ughelli, Edoni, Ogbelogbo and Ogbe. In Igbuku town are quarters like Ogbasaba, Ogbeomoku, Obikwele, Uriede, Ogbeuku, Umia and Igala.
3)ONOGBOKOR-This little settlement tuck somewhere between Umuolu and Akarai clans was recently recognized by the Delta State government as a clan with Akporeha I as its Odionlogbo. They arrived from Okpe-Isoko sometime in about 1870 and settled in Umuolu territory. The founder was one Edo. Onogbokor has three villages namely Ushie, Ogbe-Ekpako and Ove. In addition to Isoko, they also speak Aboh dialects.
4)AWA and ANYAMA
These two settlements lie along the Ase river axis. Tradition holds that Awa and Anyama were founded by two brothers namely Ozegbe and Oza in about 1830. They first settled at Awa but due to constant Ijaw raiders , Ozegbe moved over to a new site across the river to have a better view of the river and have a fore-knowledge of any possible Ijaw attack. This settlement he named Anyama. The meaning is self-explanatory in Igbo. Later , a large group of Iyede refugees led by one Isume arrived in about 1870. It is apparent that it was the same reason that drove the earlier Iyede refugees which were squatted at Ibrede, that drove this group to Awa. They arrived in about 1860 and were received by Oza who was the ruling elder in Awa. Soon the descendants of the Iyede people outnumbered the descendants of Oza or the Aboh people and for this reason, Awa soon transformed into an Isoko speaking community. The originality of Anyama is still intact. It remains Igbo speaking. Ogige , a settlement with which acted as an old trading settlement with European traders especially trade in palm-oil belongs to Anyama. An Okpala-Uku from Anyama and Oza family of Awa I in charge of this clan. [/b]

Lots have changed since you opened this thread. The igbuku community now has odionloogbo, o really wonder in what direction the assimilation is taking place,?

Hope you are good BTW?

Check Russia and Iranian military budgets add it together and multiply by 5, still yet it doesn't come close to the US

Tasha,Tasha. As confused as ever. Even a change of name could not change you. You know, I always marvel at some of you with multiple accounts on this trivial forum. My account has never been banned and I have never been embarrassed into deactivating my account unlike you kibera monkey, who had to deactivate after rvp and darfay made short work of you and sent you to the bottom. Anyway, I am happy for you that you are back but as a shadow.

Then Tasha became nobody

Lol

vanunu:
The hotel does not look fine, if you build this kind of hotel in owerri , you will find it difficult to get customers.
It looks more like students hostel.

It's in Oleh town, isoko south local government not warri, asaba, ughelli or sapele so stop showing your inferiority complex with the unnecessary comparison with owerri.




He doesn't look nice in that attire by the way

Nawa for Nigeria o

Rickyuzzy:
Yall missing the Pope's point. After all the labels and whatever way people identify. The basic thing we all share is our Humanity. And every one should be treated in that regard. Human rights for EVERYONE should be respected. You have no right to physically, emotionally, assault or abuse anyone. When all this labels are removed, Humanity is all we share. In terms of the validity of gay being accepted or not. I will like to look at things from an objective view because I am not bound by ancient views neither am I bound by myopic views, the beauty of education is to have an open mind in "Hard-nut matters". Right now... Religion (Christianity & Islam) condemns it but religion is free will. And so not everyone is bound by it. Some countries have legalised it, others decriminalised it. It is still very subjective depending on the perspective being looked at. Right now scientific research is still inconclusive on if it is genetic. So there is no Validation or Invalidation. So here is my advice. Respect the laws that guide the country you are in. If you feel the law is suppressive. Then we have the judiciary. Challenge the law. If not, respect the law or go to a country that accepts your way of identification. In a matured civil society, the law is what guides and finally protects or condemns you not the Bible or Quran.

I won't be the one to judge anyone cus unless I am in your shoes, I won't know how it hurts. There are so many arguments on Sexuality.... But no agreement yet. For now, All Humans should be respected and treated equally. Human rights is all I stand for. Don't dehumanise anyone because you are not the giver of life. Cus you don't also wanna be dehumanised for your own mistakes in life. Finally respect people's decisions as far as its 'CONCENSUAL'. If someone says he is gay... Do not feel you have the monopoly of knowledge of it being right or wrong, make your thorough research... Try to understand where the person is coming from, before you make conclusions. If we are rigid, we will lead people to sham marraiges where there is no love just betrayal, kids to suicide and we will end up creating more problems without solving anything. UNDERSTANDING, RESPECT and HUMAN DIGNITY should be the core of our relations with everyone.

PS: I know someone classless will call me gay. I am a married woman with three kids. But when I was a teen(UNILAG). My friend took his life cus of his sexuality. So to an extent. I can relate with the pain of being an outlier. Reason why i take time to.understand people's choices.

I logged in just to like your comment

Are we supposed to celebrate his delinquency?

Not a surprise, this city is a failure.

fero007:
That's like saying isoko is urhobo, dey may be similar o, but dey recognized as diff tribes, it's just dat okpe's distinction hasn't been widely recognized like isoko's own

I'm isoko btw

Mentioning one school (orhue pry school) 30million times doesn't amount to 30million projects


God save delta state

fero007:
I don't ve time to explain it but itsekiris are not yorubas, 4get all dis noise we're making here online, anyone who has lived in warri will know there's a BIG diff btw itsekiri n yoruba culture(language aside), anyone judging ethnicity of a people based on language or old origin stories is not aware of the ethnic complexity of the south south, you can't just group everyone into a wazobia system like nigeria is trying to do

to understand better, apart from yoruba and itsekiri, also check out the diff btw the following tribes

Urhobo, Isoko, okpe
Efik, Ibibio, annang
Igbo, Ika, ikwerre
Ijaw, epie, ogbia
Bini, esan, etsako

B4 anyone will bring it up, yes! I know the difference between a DIALECT n an ETHNIC GROUP, and yes! dez r sets of diff ETHNIC GROUPS and NOT dialects of the same tribe, b4 someone wil bring example of ijebu n so on

But okpe is urhobo na

How can Brazil,Argentina and Turkey be more miserable than Nigeria.... Ion believe it

Why are Nigerians telling lies. What stupid power are they talking about. No wonder the country can never move forward
