Crying for the camera. Lol. Something tells me this dude knows who stole the equipment.

Too bad one idiot has refused to grow up. Quoting and requoting himself. My people pay no heed to his tactics. He should go and upgrade on his stupidity. Despite your foolishness, you can't divide us. We are stronger than your plan.

Solidly behind you Ma

The SE Governors should raise stricter measures on IPOB.

Yujin:
Your insistence on using the word 'illiterate' clearly shows your level of understanding. You're still far below my level. IPOB boasts of all classes of people just every other pressure group. We've not done and are not interested in doing any census aimed at knowing the literacy rate of our members. Our goal remains to extricate our people and land from the evil contraption called Nigeria. We don't want to be party of an supposed country where people are killed so easily and no one is held accountable.
Now, I'll advice you to respect our opinion as we've conducted ourselves with utmost restraint all these years despite the wanton harrassment and killings visited on us by your incompetent military men who have failed woefully in protecting the people of Nigeria from Boko Haram terrorists.

Ok, I’ve heard your long grammar

Second, River state is trying her best to resuscitate the economic fortune that went down hill during the militancy era. Governor Wike himself has not hidden his intention to boost the internally generated revenue of the state. In this light, we are now witnessing the return of the shipping activities in the Onne port with the relocation of Maersk Shipping. The federal government have even earmarked Bonny Island as a potential deep seaport. Even looking at Onne, you’ll see a town that host a lot of industries, from Indorama, Eleme Petrochemical, Intel and other multinational corporations. Any wonder Wike want peace. A lot of people will remember he has called for the arrest of Stanley Mgbere the Onne Youth leader who the elders fingered as cause of the disturbances in their town.

Still looking at it from that angle, we could see that economic prosperity goes hand in hand with the security of lives and properties. Because when people are safe, economic activities will boom. This is the reason why the ban was placed on IPOB. Anyone conversant with the happenings in the Oyigbo axis will notice a constant clash has been going on between IPOB and the Hausa community. To the IPOB members, they are fighting against Fulani herdsmen, but to us indigene, we see a crisis brewing that if not nipped in the bud may flare into a national crisis. And when a Governor fails to put his house in order, you give the federal government an opportunity to call for emergency rule. This we don’t want and this is what my Governor detest.

Since IPOB says only Nnamdi Kanu is whom they listen too, my Governor has reiterated his stance. Anyone caught carrying out IPOB procession, meetings or any form that is perceived to endanger lives and properties will be apprehended. Just as the SE Governors did by prescribing IPOB, Rivers state has done the same. As a matter of fact, Wike even delayed in acting as we had wanted. Hence, why IPOB continued using Oyigbo as an operational ground. But this end from today. Anyone who says he won't listen, we'll be calmed by brutal force. If the Hausa community too say they wont listen, the security operatives will hit at them as well.

Lastly, the ban is in no way against peace loving Nigerians. We will continue to live in peace and harmony in our dear state. Everyone is welcome here except trouble makers.

In the light of Governor Nyesom Wike’s ban on IPOB activities in Rivers state, I wish to add my voice to the burning issues on ground. First and foremost, let me state here, that I support wholeheartedly the points made by my Governor because only a fool will fold his hand and allow troublemakers forment trouble in his state. Wike’s is not in anyway against any tribe or religion, as the ban is for the good of River state.

However, my message goes to the IPOB members who are beginning to feel or think wrongly. Some have gone as far as call my Governor names and even lash out against anyone that speaks in favour of the ban. It's for this reason that I would like to make my thoughts known. First by beginning with a proverb which says that when brothers fight to death a stranger inherits the father’s estate. This Igbo proverbs tries to extol sense before carrying out actions. And the following points will explain what I mean.

Let me state here that for doubters, that I’m a proud Igbo man (a proud one who is ready to battle anyone that will deny me my ethnicity), and so would never deny my people no matter the cost. But be that as it may, I’m also a proud son of Rivers state, a proud Niger-Delta, one who understands the yearning of my fellow south-southerners. Therefore, in the light of this, I’ll drop all form of sentiments and speak the truth.

First, Rivers state is a multi-ethnic state that believes in the unity and progress of this country. As a matter of fact, aside from cultism and militancy, you hardly hear about inter-ethnic crisis here. This is because we’ve grown fond of ourselves as brothers irrespective of tribe and religion. And it is through this lens that we relate to the bigger tribes like the Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba, and the minor tribes such as the Efik, Ibibio, Annang, Urhobo, Benin, Ishan, Itshekiri, Ogoja, Isoko, Izon, Ukwuani, Igala, Idoma etc. A first time visitor to Port Harcourt may confused it as Lagos. Why, because despite not being a former capital we accommodate everyone and we intend to keep it that way.

IkwerrePikin:
[s]How is he wicked? We are happy with what he did, we are happy Gowon listened to our demand and created Old Rivers state which included Akwa ibom, Cross Rivers, Bayelsa and Rivers state today.


That is what the ethnic groups in this various states wanted become we were marginalized by the Igbo dominated Eastern region govt.[/s]

Shut up your mouth. You are not from Rivers state, you aboki. Na IPOB I blame for messing up.

EmekaA125:
Same Igbo people you maligned for standing for IPOB was what were praying for her long life. Mtcheeeeeew. Igbo people in Rivers State will never despise Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB no matter Wike's series of unnecessary rants.

When will you animals get the message. Or unu choro kam sukwa ya ni Igbo. Nnamdi Kanu is a personae non-grata in Rivers state. IPOB are not welcomed. Any animal carrying Biafran flag or insignia should get himself ready for bullets.

EmekaA125:
Afinja claiming Igbo. Anu mpama

IPOB Jew claiming Igbo. Anu ohia eriri eri.

Igbochief001:
States created by north can't limit me ...I would go anywhere in igbo land wike is too small to stop me

Nobody is stopping you from going anywhere in Igboland. But anything Biafra in Rivers state is a Big No. Hope you get the message. As a matter of fact, any IPOB miscreant caught carrying Biafran flag will be shot on target.

We say No to IPOB!
We say No to Biafra!
We say Yes to a unity of the SE/SS
We say Yes to a prosperous Nigeria!

You clowns don’t know what you're fighting for. If you're fighting for a united Igboland in Nigeria, we’ll lend you our support. But anything Biafra, hate speech or division is a Big No. Get the message.

Yebosola:
I don't believe it, check the source of that news.

Ok! I didn't even check properly. IPOB and fake news

Sodiquinone:
Igbos have the right to actualize Biafra, but the problem is with Nnamdi Kanu led IPOB, no sensible person will take them serious

And who told you Igbos want Biafra?

Igbochief001:
[s]Firstly odili is an igbo man from ndoni
Ada george was an igbo man adopted by an okrika man

So before the ikwerre igbos have ruled rivers State

Back to the topic

First things first Igbos are more than ikwerre in Rivers ...

Second Igbos can't support ikwerre again because we hate domination ...it's the turn of ijaws ... kalabari or okrika

Ameachi did more than this , said he is not igbo ..when he got to national politics his eyes open he is now carrying igbo matter on his head

Little power ikwerre have it's messing them up , honestly ,they forgot when they begged for port Harcourt state to be 6th south east state

Well when we restructure Nigeria ...their eyes go open just relax[/s]

Trash! Face your states. We don't need these epistles.

Shut up! IPOB remains a cancer in Rivers state.

adadike:
The truth is , some people indegenous to Rivers State are members of IPOB and I believe they are the ones the gov wants to purge out of the state

Anybody you see carrying IPOB or Biafran flag is Rivers state is an imported miscreant. Many of us are proud Igbos, but IPOB or Biafran agitation is not in our agenda. We want a restructured Nigeria and that is the truth.

Nwaide01:
[s]Whenever I read some comments about the Igbo and IPOB in this forum I laughed at the ignorance of some of the commentators because they are so detached from the reality or rather been consumed by their jealousy and hatred that the failed to see the hand writing on the Wall. Take for example whenever the IPOB called for sit at home 99% of the Igbo based in the east and south always obeyed, and what did that single action tells you,that 99% of Igbo support Biafra including my humble self only that they do not want war because of the bitter experience of the past one. So wike is too small to ban the activities of IPOB in their own backyard[/s].

Another clown on the loose. Many of us are becoming smarter as the day goes by. Being Igbo is a different thing entirely from being an IPOB miscreant. IPOB activities in Rivers state is on ban any idiot that would try to do procession leaves himself to target practice by the Nigerian Army.

I blame Wike all along for giving you guys the clout to be messing up, but thank goodness sense has fallen on him. If the SE can ban IPOB activities, Rivers state too won’t allow it as well.

Nice one. Las las IPOB clowns go dey alright. The idiots should carry their stupidity back to their respective states. And it’s high time the SE Governors, Ohaneze-Ndigbo and other Igbo decision makers take the bull by the horn.

I’ve already recommended solution to the IPOB menace, and despite how you look at it, that the best way forward. I still maintain my pride as an Igbo man but anything IPOB or Biafra is a big No!

IPOB clowns should leave us alone and go back to their states.

Abagworo:
The proto Ikwerre isn't any offshoot of Ekpeye even though they all migrated from Crossriver. The father of Ikwerre ethnic group is Okpo Wagidi from Ama-Okpo in present day Ikwo LGA of Ebonyi State. He left Ikwo to consult Arochukwu Oracle with a large entourage after being falsely accused of sactiledge and vowed never to return or be sold into slavery. He migrated Southwards with Aro slave traders to present day Etche LGA in Rivers State where he stayed until the people felt his people were growing too large in population and allowed them cross over Chokocho to settle on virgin land. Okpo moved till he got stuck at the waterside and it was from there his entouraged dispersed to found other Ikwerre communities. Ikwerre is actually Ikwo-ere meaning Ikwo can't sell us. Igbere in Abia State has similar story as they moved from Etche in present day Rivers State to present day Bende LGA in Abia State. They are descendants of Ebiri Okomoko in Etche. Igbere is actually Igbo-ere meaning Igbo can't sell us. If anyone doubts this history he should visit Etche in Rivers State and Ikwo in Ebonyi State.

Nobody is doubting anything. All you said s the truth about the Ikwerre. Even Okrika too have shades of Aro, Abam etc in them. Ikwerre history is Aro, anything added is faulty. Some of us believe the Osu caste system and slavery championed by the Aro made the Ikwerre people Igbophobic.

nedekid:
Ipob can do it no doubt, abi will wike travel with mopol?
The main issue here is the aftermath. How will south south people react? To me wike is a very strong man, the strongest opposition figure currently. Any attack by ipob will certainly backfire.
Why is Kanu being such a nuisance?

Yes, Wike might want to be willy by playing the South-South card but he will fail yakata. Wike and IPOB are friends and they should settle their scores amicably. The same way Wike dare not drag SS into it is the same way IPOB clowns should not drag us into it. Nnmadi Kanu should restrict his madness in London. Rivers state is not a home for IPOB touts. We are Nigerians not Biafrans. Some of us might be Igbos but never IPOB idiots.

Proeast2:
You're totally ignorant. Pick some history books and read and stop being unfortunate. Is there any difference between the Obigbo people in Rivers and the Ukwa people in Abia? [s]Is there any difference between the Egbema people in Imo and the Egbema people in Rivers[/s]?

So because some abo.ki made stupid adjustments to the boundaries during state creation by the military now means it is binding?

In time to come, Igbos in Rivers State will unite under one umbrella and ensure that you ikwerre people from the lost tribe of Bini never gets to rule Rivers State again.

Useless minorities.

Oga don't add us in your miscreant movement. We are Igbos but never secessionist. I might have supported you clowns in the past, but no more. You people should carry your IPOB and move to your respective states. We are not interested. After all, you people are one of Wike’s support base. Fight it out with Wike, but don't drag us into it. Thanks.

PreyingMantis:
Na you go press the ban button?

So you no look well, you want to engage. Your fellow IPOB miscreants didn't tell you scores.

PreyingMantis:
You're a goat! Vanbonnatel ko, Van Der Ser ni!

Aturu awusa. You’ll receive a ban now as you no want get sense.

Brooklynsouth:
I was actually believing that guy until he goofed there ,that guy na pure fake Eastlink you are fake

You see how stupid you are! You wish I was Yoruba, but I’m sorry I’m a full blooded nwafor. Strong one for that matter.

PreyingMantis:
An Nwafor No Igbo man will write that. Continue exposing your sorry arse

So you’ve change moniker Vanbonnatel. Aturu ohia! Is this how foolish you’ve become? Ngwa clap for yourself aturu IPOB. If you like gather your fellow IPOB miscreants, I full ground.

vanbonattel:
Do you Know what your problem is? You try too much to deceive people whose intelligence is bigger than yours. You are not deceiving anyone but yourself.

I don’t even know why I stoop low to chat with an IPOB Jew. I forgot only maniac Kanu is allowed to knot your brains. I have important things to do now, time is almost 6pm. Enjoy Mr detective.

vanbonattel:
A devout muslim, continue.

Point of correction. A devout Catholic. Just like Nzeogwu I don't smoke, drink or womanize. My wife is enough for me, and my business in Lagos keeps me woke. Ever other think is meaningless. I only spend time in Nairaland just like every Entrepreneur who want to learn one or two things from Business section and politics from time to time to discuss Nigerian problems.

vanbonattel:
Whatever you are smoking, is really strong. Chaiii! You are very very high

First of all, I don't smoke nor drink. I’m well disciplined. And secondly, anyone you see or hear shouting Biafra is either a failure, or mentally retarded. A typical Ibo man is focused on how to make money, rather than become someones dog. The day Ndigbo become the slaves of London maniac is the day Nigeria becomes finished. If we cannot bow down to Kings, is it Kanu the failure we would obey?

vanbonattel:
You are the fake because y I u are against the main thing Igbos want, which is Biafra. Online paid propagandists like yourself try as much as you can to deceive people that you are an Igbo person, thinking it will give you the leverage to talk about Igbo interests.

But we know you for the laughable fake you are. We laugh at you and move on.

Kanu and IPOB are more important to us than Nigeria which is heading for the rocks.

Ndigbo don't support Biafra. The war our fathers fought was borne out of survival, and that is in the past now. Ever since Alex Ekweme became VP we’ve moved on, not until 2001 when Obasanjo and PDP helped sponsored MASSOB in similar way he sponsored NDPVF and OPC.

Ojukwu contested for Nigerian Presidency, Peter Obi contested for Vice. Okonjo-Iweala is representing Nigeria in WTO. Mikel Obi and the rest flew the Super Eagles jersey. Real Igbos don't believe in division except Jews from Isreal. Only scammers and failures fight for Biafra.

vanbonattel:
You are typing from Kaduna. In Igboland, IPOB is strong and healthy. Even growing in numbers since they went underground. There is no average Igbo person who has no direct or in detect links to IPOB.

You can stay in the north and believe what you want. And your deception that you are Igbo is simply a comic relief. I have been laughing at your low IQ since

A Vanbonnatel with no gender can never tell an Nwafor his true identity. You are a fake Jew with no identity, except the one imposed by your Lord Kanu. While I on the other hand speaks boldly of my identity. So between both of us, who would people call fake?

Good for Wike. The puppy he helped nurture have grown into a Lion.
