There is no place called Obigbo in Rivers State.

Shut up your putrid mouth. It was Obigbo before Rivers State was even born. If there is no place called Obigbo therefore there is no Rivers State.

There is absolutely no iota of professionalism in Nigerian armed forces. In fact, there is nothing such as professionalism in Nigeria. It is safe to say Nigeria is on the verge of destroying democracy.

According to people who were born with acute mental impairment, once you post a news published entirely by a newspaper, even without adding an alphabet to that which you've reposted on Nairaland, YOU LOVE THE PERSON THE NEWS IS ABOUT.

I can hardly blame such people. It is a genealogical disaster and no fault of theirs.

Take your head out of Omenka's rump. He isn't responsible for your frustration and misery. Thanks.

Bye.

Do not try to be smart through stupidity. The issue is not a matter of adding an alphabet to the useless newspaper articles you post but the love you have with such silly skewed idiocy. I personally do not give a ratass about your love affair with idiotic and skewed stories from useless media houses.

Its no longer news that Ebonyi governor moved from PDP to APC within the week for his Igbo political alignment in 2023.
The self acclaimed 'National Leader of APC ' has been unusually silent on this ground shaking event of taking Igbo's votes and state machinery to APC of all political party in Igboland.
Tinubu is regarded as the major Southern stakeholder of APC but I couldn't see him in company of other APC bigwigs that welcomed Gov Umahi to their folds.
Can someone tell us what is happening down South..??
Is 'the Jagaban of Borgu and the 'Asuwaju of Lagos' aware of what that mean to his presidential dream of 2023..??

Used and dropped!!!!

Moferere:
You mean Illiterate Peoples of Biafra (IPoBs)?

Very inconsequential group

No, the IPOO ( Illiterate Peoples of Oduduwa).

nairalandankrah:
If umahi is given the APC presidential ticket, can he win without the support of the south east/ south south??. Because it's clearly obvious ipobs do not want an igbo presidency...
What are his chances with APC!.?.

Zero!!!!

Fozi:
This man was APC since he stepped in we have been waiting for him since to decamp but he delayed so that he could use PDP to win the election and deceive his people. APC a party rejected by everybody even his senators and reps. He just killed his career that party is for the. Northerner not South South or South East man their agenda has been clear to the world now

You could not be more correct. He may not win a position as a dogcatcher in Eboney State.

They have already attempted to steal 2020 presidential election US under the guise of COVID-19 pandemic. Mail-in ballot under the cover of COVID-19 is a game changer.

helinues:
Umahi is a known gentle man, he shouldn't let his defection to Apc get into his head

There is no gentility in Umahi. He is not a gentle man by any stretch. The dumbass goon is a willing tool.

Barrister Jimoh Ibrahim was one of the richest in Nigeria and the pride son of Oduduwa. It is funny he is now addressed as Barrister Jimoh Ibrahim instead of billionaire Jimoh Ibrahim. Nigeria is a really shithole.

OfoIgbo:
It's even in Amazon. The hardcopy is sold for $22.13

That is a book that strikes the fear into your kind abi ??

Thank God for that captain. That book is a classic, and every UBANI citizen, infact every Asa/Ndoki, Ngwa person should have it.
Ohanaeze should have it
IPOB should have it
Umu Nri worldwide should have it

You are pleading with a stone to buy book.

but I schooled u on "go to Niger" and a lil of the kalabari hiatory

Schooled me on what? You moronically claimed everybody celebrates "Go to Niger" as shown in the silly video. I countered with my auntie’s household does not celebrate the crap. Then you came with a crap about Christmas celebration and Christians. The fact remains not everybody in or from Abonnema celebrates the idiotic "Go to Niger" as displayed in video posted on Niaraland.

dukeprince50:
Do have a nice day, its difficult to try and reason with u

Yes, it so because you do not know a jack.

dukeprince50:
the fvck do I care where it comes from, its a big family in bonny and that's what I wish to tell u.
Kalabari also has English names like West, Briggs, George, Bobmanuel, Jack, Georgewill
with notable people like JJ Tom west, Taribo west, lulu Briggs etc. Are u diverting this to how those English names came about? is that what we are debating?
u am tired jare, u are nit making any sense again, Do have a nice day

Pal, please begin to give a freaking hoot about who you are and where you hailed. When you do the stated, it will save you from public embarrassment. Nigeria is not a shithole for nothing.

dukeprince50:
Kalabari is not ijo, my own Kalabari?
Guy calm down, u no get wetin to argue.

let me enlighten u
U see ehn, the ijaw tribe has some sub that has their distinct language, we have the kalabari dialect in the ijaw tribe, we have the nembe, we have the okrika. U see me ehn, I will not understand Bayelsa ijaw but we are all ijaw.
Just because I don't understand Bayelsan izon doesn't make me a non ijaw

Ijo was never an ethnic group until lately. Ijo was also derived from a Portuguese term meant for people who live by the Riverside. I guess you know how the name for the people of "Brass" came about to become.

dukeprince50:
I am from bonny but I know nothing about them cos my dad is Kalabari and I spend 85% of my life in Kalabari and has only visited bonny once when my great grand mother died, Even at that, none of my relatives has ever claimed to be Igbo, they are all ijo and they live in bonny till 2moro. I am part of the Jumbo family in bonny. though I don't go there cos my paternal home is in Kalabari which I grew up from

The original name of European Porters from Akwapim-Togo region. Jumbo was derived from Ghana word Jebrin or Jibri. I really do not want to rain on your parade but the hidden facts must be stated at times.

dukeprince50:
u can create ur own history for all I care. I won this argument like Biden won Trump, bring another argument

What argument if I may ask? Every goon in the shithole called Nigeria probably know that Bonny is neither Igbo nor Ijo word. Even Kalabari is not ijo. In fact, I had to include Ama onye ana abo, the person whose compound is swept by the community on certain days.

OfoIgbo:
cc: Dedetwo

You guys can create as many wikipedia pages to try and take over UBANI, which means The Richness of Land in Igbo. It will not work

In the book, a snippet of which is attached to my signature, there was nothing like IBANI there. The word IBANI came years or decades after that book.

In that book, there was reference made to Ijaws who came in from Brass. They obviously metamorphosed into the tribe you now call IBANI, which must be a corruption of the Igbo word for the town UBANI. Basically, IBANI is a recent coinage. The Ijaw element of UBANI (Bonny) and Opobo, were migrants from Brass. That's all.

Ndoki-Igbos own UBANI, and their royal family and the royal family of the Kalabari, are Igbo in origin. Facts don't lie

Original word came from the Portuguese not Ijo.

dukeprince50:
when people start loosing an argument, the resort to insults.
I know nothing about Aba except that it is a city in Abia, I won't argue Aba with u.
Don't ask me what is Opobo in ijo, Ijaw as a tribe as many distinct dialect, u can't understand all, no body that I know of does

Nope, I do not insult. Okay, for the sake of semantics, you wrote Bonny is not Igbo. Sure, it is English. However Ubani is neither English nor Ijo. Bonney is angelized Ubani. Ubani is Ngwa via Akwete.

dukeprince50:
lol, is that ur favourite line, u know better than the info on wikipedia right?

Do not be lazy, pal. Wikipedia can be edited seven ways to Sunday.

dukeprince50:
I said bonny is not Igbo, I never said there is no Igbo in Ubani.
read the link and stop arguing with me, u stand no chance when it comes to ijaw thing, I know ijaw history far better than u

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ibani_tribe

Shut up your putrid mouth. I guess it is safe to say Aba is not Igbo. Even Igweocha is Ijo and Opu Obu (Opobo) is Ijo too. What is Opu obu in ijo? Pal. I was born and raised in the neighborhood in discussion. I know the original and unadulterated names of some of these places. Of course, Bonny, is an English word while Ubani is an Igbo word. I remembered when one dude in the same mold of character as you told us his grandfather was Igbo from Ezebudele, Asa Ukwa West LGA yet he is Ijo. How can a person's progenitor was Ashanti and suddenly the person becomes Ewe? I guess only in the shithole called Nigeria.

dukeprince50:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ibani_tribe

Just read the first sentence of that link and stop arguing unnecessarily

When Europeans say that Africans are intellectually lazy, most Africans jump into the nonsense called "racism". I could have edited the crap from Wikipedia any manner that I wanted which excluded the mention of "Boat people and European Porters" to the mix. Yet it is the silly line of your defense.

dukeprince50:
make I no slap u o. which bonny is igbo?

SaintBishop:

i thought that Ofoigbo said the people of bonny and Opobo are igbos.


Above post is the response from you to the post created by SaintBishop.

dukeprince50:
They all welcomed the idea of " go to Niger" but not everyone goes out to perform on that day, some just sit at home and watch it on cable TV as it was celebrated. Nobody wan go die

Please be careful of what you write. I guess you should learn to write what you mean and mean what you write. On this page you claimed there is no Igbo in Ubani (Bonny). You know very well that Obomanu is not Ijo. Initially, you wrote that everybody comes out to celebrate the freaking crap " Go to Niger" as displayed in video.

dukeprince50:
There is no soul in Abonnema that doesn't celebrate "go to Niger" except those that are afraid of gunshot during celebration.
Its a festival that has been for ages. It is more celebrated that Christmas day.
Take ur time and visit Abonnema and see how they celebrate it

Do you really think I shall believe this crap from you? My auntie and her household do not celebrate the crap "go to Niger".

BravoDe:
Are you alright at all? How's this nonsense?

I am very alright and upright too. You are very junior you cannot possibly understand the nonsensical plank of the crap you posted.

dukeprince50:
its a celebration to mark the day the Nigerian Army saved the people of Abonnema(in kalabari) from the biafran soldiers.

Those engaged in the celebration were saboteurs. The majority people of Abonnema who refused even to join Rivers Province and proclaimed their affiliation with Biafra just recently cannot celebrate Nigerian Army.

totit:
And what exactly is fake and original to start with?

You ignorantly started with fake yet asked what is fake and original.

Eteka1:
Cross River State cannot be part of Biafra either.

Cross River State has already been ceded to Republic of Ambazonia. There are other jackasses who are still expendable.

dukeprince50:
make I no slap u o. which bonny is igbo?

One Ichie Obomanu is still alive in Ubani (Bonny) and publicly claimed Igbo. He is not a denial goat. Obomanu is not Ijo.

Openbusiness:
Just say you are from Bayelsa. This is not Calculus class na . Which tribe?

When jackasses are ashamed to make mention of their ancestral lineage, something is fundamentally wrong.
