We still hv more Yoruba Christians than igbo Christians

Did you listen to yourself ?

Your population in Nigeria is approximately 40 million and alf of your population is Muslim already, making it 20 million….

How can you compare yourself that are religiously divided to Igbos who are monolithic religiously ?

Video of the prayer of the faithful in Igbo language at the Pope’s Christmas Vigil Mass yesterday at the Vatican yesterday, December 24.

One of the intentions during the Prayer of the Faithful at the Christmas Vigil Mass celebrated last night by Pope Leo XIV in St Peter’s Basilica was read in Igbo language, recognising input from Igbo members across the Catholic Church worldwide.

An Igbo couple also joined in carrying the gifts to the Pope during the Eucharistic Procession.

Midwest was not in existence in 1946. Only 3 regions were existing then, Northern, Eastern and Western regions. Midwest region was created in 1963. Which make this news very fake.

Did you read all the content of the thread at all ?

They were all under Western region dominated by Yorubas, then Midwest was created , merging them with other ethnicities in the Midwest, yet they kept agitating to be ceeded to East despite creating Bendel, and subsequently Delta state and the agitation is still on ..

and therefore felt politically and socially misaligned under Yoruba-dominated Western regional administration.


Same people are in power today , and we see how they’re dealing with Nigerians

Today, some misguided elements in SW are claiming to be in love with Anioma people..

Very deceitful people

Non Yorubas suffered during Yoruba dominated western region..
Apart from giving political appointments to only Yorubas, non Yorubas were subjected to a lot marginalisation like, not spreading development to non Yoruba speaking areas. They also tried to impose their language on others which failed woefully..

During Western Traditional rulers council meeting in Ibadan, they would lock Oba of Benin outside for just being late at the meeting.. lol.. All these were done because they resisted their ideology..

Thank God for Azikiwe, Okpara and Osadebe’s influence in the libration roles they played to save Non Yorubas in the western Nigeria

The agitation is still in progress after 79 years

————————
The article titled “Midwest Ibos Want to Join Eastern Region”, published in the West African Pilot, reports a political demand made in the late colonial period by Igbo-speaking communities living in Nigeria’s Mid-West (present-day parts of Edo and Delta States).

The story explains that leaders and representatives of these Mid-West Igbo communities formally declared their desire to secede from the Western Region and be merged with the Eastern Region, where the majority of Igbo people were administratively located. They argued that they were culturally, linguistically, and historically Igbo, and therefore felt politically and socially misaligned under Yoruba-dominated Western regional administration.

According to the report, the demand was presented through petitions and representations to colonial authorities and regional officials. The petitioners complained of political marginalisation, inadequate representation, and neglect of their interests within the Western Region. They maintained that joining the Eastern Region would better protect their identity, improve access to opportunities, and allow them to develop alongside their ethnic kin.

The article situates this demand within the broader constitutional debates of the time, when Nigeria’s regions were being re-examined and ethnic minorities were agitating either for new states or for realignment with regions they felt more closely connected to. The Mid-West Igbo request was one of several such claims highlighting the artificial nature of colonial boundaries and the tensions they created.

In essence, the story documents an early and clear historical instance in which Mid-West Igbo communities openly asserted their Igbo identity and sought political union with the Eastern Region, reflecting the deep ethnic and political fault lines of pre-independence Nigeria.

Sharia law will destroy Nigeria..

Bro, is Asaba included as part of Anioma State?

Of course

Only online SW warriors that don’t understand what is going on in SS are against Anioma, because they think they are hurting Igbos.. lol

All Urhobo people are celebrating Anioma state creation for obvious reason..

Igbos are supporting Anioma

More than 100 senators have approved Anioma ..

Infact, those against Anioma are just online clowns that know nothing

he Delta State government has given a partial support to the creation of Anioma state.


This position was made known on Monday when Anioma youths drawn from the nine local government areas of Delta north staged a peaceful protest to the Government House, Asaba, to renew their long-standing agitation for the creation of Anioma state and its zoning to the South-East geopolitical zone.

Addressing the protesters at the Government House, the Chief of Staff, Government House, Prince Johnson Erijo, assured them that the administration of Governor Sheriff Oborevwori harboured no opposition to the legitimate aspirations of the Anioma people.


He, however, maintained it must be pursued strictly in line with due constitutional processes.

According to him, the agitation for Anioma State was neither misplaced nor improperly articulated and deserved sincere consideration.


He emphasized that the government remained firmly committed to democratic choice, the rule of law and the expressed will of the people.

Prince Erijo commended the peaceful disposition of the youths, describing it as a reflection of maturity, responsibility and genuine commitment to their cause.

He disclosed that Governor Oborevwori had been fully briefed on the protest and had directed him to engage the group directly and listen to their concerns.


Drawing from scriptural references, he noted that the government had a responsibility to respond to the genuine needs of its people, stressing that “no earthly father would give a stone to a child who asks for bread.”

The Chief of Staff further emphasized the importance of unity among Anioma people, noting that a common and clearly defined position would strengthen the agitation and eliminate conflicting opinions. “If the people are in agreement as to the Anioma they desire, there should be no room for dissenting voices,” he said.

Explaining the constitutional framework for state creation, Prince Erijo said the process was clearly outlined in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and involved the submission of petitions and memoranda to the National Assembly, followed by legislative consideration and the conduct of a referendum.


He explained that such a referendum would cover all Anioma-speaking local government areas, Aniocha North and South, Oshimili North and South, Ika North East and Ika South, Ndokwa West and Ndokwa East, as well as other interested enclaves, including Igbanke in Edo State.

He assured the protesters that once a referendum was conducted and the majority of the people expressed their desire for Anioma State, their decision would be respected.

He reiterated that Governor Oborevwori was not opposed to the creation of Anioma State and would support any outcome that reflected the majority will of the people through lawful means.

While thanking the protesters for their orderly conduct, Prince Erijo urged them to sustain their calm and law-abiding disposition as they continued to pursue the creation of Anioma State, assuring them that any collective decision reached by the people would be honoured, provided it reflected the majority position.

Earlier, the protesting youths, under the banner of a coalition, reaffirmed their demand for Anioma state and its zoning to the South-East, declared that ancestrally, culturally and linguistically, they were Igbo people, stressing that their identity could no longer be denied or downplayed.

Speaking through their leaders, Ofochi Atagana for Ukwuani youths, Ayo Ashiedu for Aniocha North, Kingsley Kainebi for Ika North East and Chief Jude Ogbekile for the Igbanke community, the youths appealed to the Delta State government to lend political and moral support to the agitation.

They acknowledged that state creation followed constitutional procedures but noted that governors played a vital role in advancing such causes.

They described the creation of Anioma State as a win-win arrangement, noting that Asaba would naturally become the capital of the proposed State while Delta State would have the opportunity to designate a new capital elsewhere.

They called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the National Assembly to support the bill for Anioma State, the youths reaffirmed their resolve to be reunited with their kith and kin across the Niger

If e sure you, go ika villages go call them Igbo. Na social media una mouth dey.

Nairaland clown..

The person controlling that platform is even Ika, not just Ika, but Ika lady from Edo state, yes Edo state not even Delta state..
Let me break your heart, not only that Anioma will be created, there will also be a boundary adjustment after the creation which she’s seriously pushing.. Igbanke will join Anioma, take it or leave it and she’s working with Ned.. . If you know the stage on board, you won’t be saying this..

I doubt if you are in touch with the reality offline..
Follow the page, hear from the horse’s mouth and stop deluding yourself..

Readinglamp:
I taya. As an Ukwuani person, you need to see how people from the SE insult my people when we make simple posts promoting our culture. It's either you agree with them or you chop insult.

Ned Nwoko is the cause. Right now those from the SE see him as the best politician in Nigeria.

The joke is on you..

Follow this page on TikTok, and stop dragging SE people

CSTRR:
Create anioma state, which is fine and good.

But there is absolutely nothing to gain Joining the SE.
Not with IPOB and UGM having a free rein there.

Anioma would be best as a south south state.

Don't make costly mistakes that would affect generations.

SS does not have a slot, if it comes to SS, another ethnic group won’t allow Anioma to have it,.. Ijaws,and other ethnicities are pushing as well..


I doubt if you know the politics on ground as we speak

Orlandoo:
While some 'waste' are protesting to join Pakistan.

Can you imagine !!

I pity Yoruba Christian’s

SmartPolician:
State creation is a lot of work in Nigerian democracy. Let's keep our fingers crossed

Meanwhile, agba..dorians will see these pictures and be in severe pains for something that clearly shouldn't concern them.

Even Urhobo people who are laergest ethnic group in Delta want Anioma state to be created, so that they can have the upper hand and take capital to Warri.
Yet, I don’t know why SW people that are living very far from the zone are having sleepless night over Anioma

We Anioma people did a solidarity match today the 15th of December in Asaba to show full support for the creation of Anioma state and its South East zoning.

If you hear Alla akhbar in a public gathering Run ooooo!!! Even security agency had to whisk Donald Trump away when someone screamed Alla akhbar when he was on stage giving a speech

Such slogan should be banned In public spaces.. It affects people’s mental health..

There is absolute no punishment for that in Islam..

Stop deceiving yourself with this taquia

Islamic terrorists have finally set Nigeria on fire

Sharia law is for the miserable ones

Now understand why Ogun people were on their knees begging very dark man to give them borehole

SOUTH WEST RANKED LOWEST AMONG ZONES IN NIGERIA THAT HAVE ACCESS TO BOREHOLE / HAND-PUMPED WATER — 2023

Zone — Number in 1000 Household
South South — 600
South East — 560
North East — 530
North West — 420
North Central — 300
South West — 290

NB: No zone struggles with clean borehole water access more than the South West a surprising infrastructure gap Nigeria.

You’re not current..

You no know wassup..

I should be telling you that

If the British people don’t have options again apart from Labour,they would rather vote for Reform led by Farage, than to vote for conservative again..

Kemi is chasing shadow, and some of her MPs are against her

Your own analysis is coming from tribal lines.. Face the reality

Labour will rule Uk for a very long time long time..

Kemi and her conservative gangs are chasing shadow..

Tomorrow they will start crying for southern unity, yet they are ready to sabotage any progress from their southern neighbour..

Trust these people at your own peril.. We know them more than they know themselves..

Their sabotage didn’t start today.. They did it to Jonathan politically, now they are doing it to entire SS economically,,

Sanwo-Olu's Aide Faults NPA Port Shift

The Lagos State government has criticised the Nigerian Ports Authority for its decision to shift operational focus from Lagos ports to the Warri Port Complex, arguing that the problem lies in the authority’s policy flaws rather than Lagos ports themselves. Adekoya Hassan, Senior Special Assistant to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Transportation and Logistics, stated that while the governor has shown unwavering dedication to addressing port congestion, the NPA’s policies remain a significant obstacle to achieving seamless cargo movement within the Apapa Port corridor.
