urhobo riverine tribe How,,,, this is so wrong jeez ,, the two riverine tribes in delta is ijaw and itshekiri, n they don’t even hv similarities ,, urhobo n ijaw don’t dance the same way at all, the music r the same sound How,, the only thing u are little right about is their dressing,,, but Igbos dress that way as well, urhobo don’t eat foods loaded with any sea food !! U don’t know what u r saying

if you think urhobo is not riverine, go to ofoni, gbarigolo, oduburu, anibeze, oduophiri, e.t.c even d urhobos in sapele n abraka n kiagbodo r known for riverine traits

i know d diff between urhobo, ijaw n itsekiri, (ihwo r' urhobo, izon otu, n omi werre) ive lived in warri, from ajamimogha, enerhen, udu, warri corner

urhobo n ijaw music have the same sound, a musician that proves that is asu ekiye

dont urhobo cook banga soup with things like prawns, periwinkle, crayfish?

mind you, im comparing urhobo and izon, and those two are very alike, u are disagreeing because u are comparing all groups of ijaw to urhobo, dont you know that even within ijaw izon n kalabari are very diff. u maybe be right if we talk of ijaw in general, but focusing on izon, izon is very similar to urhobo

ariesbull:



This is the funniest post I have seen ! As in rivertine is similarities

As in eating garri and fish is similarities

Can you even different the way the urhobo and the Igbo woman tie wrapper or differentiate the urhobo top from Igbo top....

LoL

On your own

ariesbull:



Can you tell me the cultural beliefs they share just give me 3 out of the so called many....mind you I was brought up in Warri ....arigbe street by nitel adjacent to CKC ....from okere Road...so mind you ...you are talking to a dude that knows Warri well from Ekpan to ughelli from sapele to pesu waterside


So brief us the similarities that are so much in ijaw and urhobo ..after I can lecture you in Warri and the crisis


Keep deflecting

u grow up in warri and did not see their similarities, well let me point some out

1.) both urhobo and ijaw are riverine tribes
2.) both dance same way, only that it is ijaw that is known more for the owigiri waste dance, but ive seen urhobo dancers do it too
3.) both have the same marriage culture, their marriage is 95% the same
4.) both eat the same kind of food loaded with seafood
5.) their music has the same sound
6.) urhobo and ijaw(izon) dress the same way, it is when you start going towards kalabari that it gets less similar

now for non cultural similarities(jokingly)
they both like money, women and drinking
they are sharp, strong, aggressive yet funny people
they ve some words in common
Hat and white handkerchief

We all Know some ikwere people deny it,, so? Use google okay n save urself the stress

the information in google, on wikipedia was written by people. google will tell you isoko is a dialect of urhobo which is a lie

i know how 2 end this arguement, any rumuighoroya here?

In kano they have their various association...they might see themselves as people from the same region but they have their various association.....just like saying Egun of Badagry sees himself as one with Yoruba...Egun man hates been called yoruba man !

They might see themselves as for the sake of geography and their minority status but tribally speaking they know they aren't one ....what is the similarities between the Ijaws and the urhobo

exactly same way, urhobo and isoko may have one meeting in lagos based on brotherhood but there will still ve deir own individual meeting, doesnt make them same tribe

ijaw n urhobo dont ve similarities? you really dont know about the niger delta, d urhobos n ijaw especially d izon share many culture belief, food, dressing, e.t.c

Shugavee:
the areas that speak Igbo r igbos,, do ur research!

it depends, remember i said they speak same language doesnt make them the same tribe

ariesbull:


But here in Lagos they see themselves as one...they have the same meeting and they have a collective name known as Sobo

Just like Ikwere and Owerre people are know as Igbo


The Egun , the Ọkụn , the Egba and Ijebu are known as Yoruba though, I have met some Ijebu folks that hate the term Yoruba ...the Ọkụn of Kogi and some parts of Kwara don't even like seeing themselves as Yoruba ...ask Dino Melaye


That's is how petty we are here

in Kano, urhobo, ijaw, ogoni, itsekiri see demselves as one....dat doesnt make dem same tribe

Shugavee:
i know nothing about Arabs , I don’t argue what I don’t know ,, is like the ijaws in port Harcourt in delta or Edo State .. n they one person will come out n say they ain’t ijaws ? How? But they speak ijaw!!!

u know urhobo n isoko of delta speak same language, but r known as different tribes

Shugavee:
lol just the way some deltans say they ain’t Igbo but anioma , but they r whether they like it or not. Most people deny it based on sentiments,, but technically they r!! As far the language they speak is Igbo ...

dats why its complicated, the ones that deny it based on sentiment are those from aniocha, those ones dont really deny it like that only about 60%. But the case of ukwuani n ikwerre is different as those ones have for a long time, long b4 biafra also stated that were a unique ethnic group, the ukwuani were even part of old warri province, and while in 1991 whe the aniochas wanted anioma state, the ukwuanis joined the itsekiri, ijaw, urhobo and isoko to struggle for delta state

Shugavee:
they ain’t but they r Igbo,, Igbo isn’t about the location but the idialet , as far u call the language u speak Igbo , u r Igbo,, if u speak Yoruba, u r Yoruba no matter the location, so yes if the Cameroonians call that particular language Igbo, they r Igbo. Igbo is not a location. Funny enough Tonto identifies herself as an Igbo woman but she isn’t from the east

dats where we get it wrong, a tribe is defined solely by a language. The fact that village A and village B speak the same language does not automatically make them the same ethnic group, those who live in the north understand

@ 93miles n viscerion, dont argue wit ariesbull n his like bcuz its obvious dey here to show how foolish n immature n jobless dey are, and not to learn anything new bcuz its only what they believe that is correct, someone wil be telling u the truth u will insult the person cuz you dont want him/her to spoil your plan of mislead people. gi bu nkita ara


for those that have sense to reason and learn, i live in port harcourt, anybody that tells you ikwerre see themselves as igbo is LYING. Most of them always lay emphasis that their tribe different from igbo, same thing with the ukwuani n ika in delta state. if you want proof visit port harcourt, those who live in port harcourt know in their heart that am saying the truth

ariesbull:


Is that so ? Yet 20% has been ruling from Omehia to Odili from Wike to Amechi

Are these Greek names ...nzuzu

nna gi bu nzuzu

i told you countless times that Gov amaechi and wike are not igbo, they are ikwerre, a tribe cannot claim sole ownership of a name but it wont enter ur stone head, how do you know that igbo didnt even get those names from ikwerre

infact they are not greek names, they are pluto names, bushpig, if you dont want learn go n rock transformer

placeofallure:


Well, I'm being objective here.
The girl in the picture is provocatively dressed. You don't leave your house dressed in this manner and not expect snide comments from people with low self esteem as you. In plain words, she's dressed like an 'Ashi' Are you by any chance saying that Ibo girls are sluts? There's nothing classy about her. In fact she's classless!

Thank Olodumare, Oodua ni mi tokan-tokan!

u know because of d way modern society is, dat dressing is now a normal way of dressing, lol, both decent n indecent, classy n classless, dress like dis these dayz, lol

ariesbull:


Rivers is not an Igbo State because we have other tribes there but Rivers is a State THAT is majority of the indigenous are Igbo

Just like Delta State isn't an Igbo State but we have ⅓ of the state Igbo

Rivers is only about 20% igbo, mostly in extreme rivers north near imo, go to ph and see if the ikwerre and ogba people see themselves as igbo

in Delta, igbos are about 20% too, ukwani n ika are not igbo and most are annoyed when others group them under igbo, they are their distint ethnic group

since you dont want to agree that more than one tribe can share a name, i wont talk to you again

Man Their is Problem. Word on the Street is Police came to our Neighborhood to catch criminals with long Crime track to take to jail. When boys in the Neighborhood caught word of it they started fleeing. The police seeing that started bringing out their guns to Shoot. a stray Bullet touched a girls leg and right now she's at the General Hospital. Because of the Happenings we couldn't go enjoy the Night at Bro Osas'es place. police started taking people for questioning but I didn't say a word

That's exactly my Dream because people are taking advantage of our Diversity and language barrier against us. Since most of them run the Government and are the Majority they would always bring that bullshit that Pidgin is a Bastardized foreign language so it can't be standardized and made into a National language. No language came out of Thin air they were all born from older languages like French Italian Spanish Portuguese that evolved from Vulgar Latin the pidgin form of Latin. or English that started of as a pidgin much like ours from German Latin French Greek Etc. They would say its not an Indigenous language but if it was coined by our Ancestors in this same land then I don't see how its less indigenous from Igbo Ijaw Yoruba Urhobo? Inshort since the Igbos keep saying their are Jews that they language is related to Hebrew or the Yoruba to Arab. then its all even na!

wenem 100 gbosa 4 u, ure teeth complete u nor get igbeke, u see no one who didnt grow in SS could understand, our mindset about pidgin is wrong o

ariesbull:


You are contradicting yourself...explain how different pls

you think im contradicting myself because you think the ukwuani, ika, ogba n ikwerre are igbo, well they are not.

in delta, Igbos can be found in aniocha n oshimili areas, but when get down to ndokwa, obiaruku and kwale, you start to see the ukwani people, mind you this ukwani people are NOT a dialect or sub group of igbo( like aniocha pepo), they a different ethnic group all together

People from either side need to accept that we share foods in common’s the bottom line I’m trying to get across at least. I like a lot of Yoruba food putting aside the stereotypes. It’s never that deep.

What is Enugu's monthly allocation?
Why is the puppet's allocation higher than the majority?

PS.. Nigeria can live without the majority (SE) but Nigeria can't survive with the puppets (SS)

Abeg SS are not puppets o, SS and SE are the power of this country so i dont see how SS are puppets, power is not by population o

Please I want to know.. Is Rivers state an Igbo state?

The op claimed Tonto Dike is an Igbo girl..



Cc Oyindidi
Cc Bede2u

Rivers is NOT an Igbo state o, rivers is a multiethnic state, and igbo is just one of the many tribes in rivers. ijaw, ikwerre, ogba, ogoni and many odas are also tribes in rivers, for those that think port harcourt is igbo land, you are wrong

and tonto dikeh is an ikwerre woman not an igbo woman, i can explain the difference if you want to know

Is Amaechi a Latin name ?

before fight will start, i want to know that i get your point, when states where created tribes were not taken into consideration so no doubt there are igbos in delta and rivers state. BUT the ukwuani and ikwerre are not the same as these igbos because even before the creation of states these people have always been known as a seperate ethnic group

Is Amaechi a Latin name ?

amaechi is an Igbo name, an ikwerre name, an ukwani name, and many other tribes answer amaechi

NL sef, are yoruba and igbo the only tribes in this world

to me, south south marry south south(boring), south east marry south east(boring), south east marry south south(dope!)


bede, 93, datijawboy n odas, why we dey do like dis ehn? if any two regions sud quarrel, it sud not be South East and South South, both regions are by far d best of what nigeria can offer n oda regions are envious(ive noticed dis 4rm living in Lagos n Ib), and anything that both regions join hand to do in peace is always amazing
