oga the whole asaba are igbos, some Delta north trace origin to Benin,I know there very well

Only very few of them have ancestors that are bini migrants and they have heavily cross bred with the Igbo population that their bini blood is not there.

This Anioma is not Igbo is politics.

presher:
oga even in akwukwu igbo some migrated from Benin

The migrants are not up to 1%
We also have Ika settlements in Edo, does that make Edo Ika?

This Anioma is not Igbo is all politics.

presher:
oga am in onitsha asaba is like my home, nobody in asaba or it's Environ that claims benin,come to asaba and innvestigate

Asaba's Oshimili rhymes with Onitsha's Idemili more than Warri or Ughelli.

Eshinwaju:
check out zik's interview....he opined that his people r from benin....iboes need to stop claiming other people's land..

Initially Anioma royalty could have been from Bini but the people themselves are not from Igbo per se but are intrinsically Igbos themselves.
We don't come from Igbo, we are Igbos.

I have, with an unbiased open mind researched on the origin of Anioma, stories that link Anioma to bini only explain that the some certain bini prince with some soldiers settled on some land but would ignore the aboriginal settlers therein.

Why should Bini people leave the confines of their city to settle in where is now called Anioma?

Some anioma communities had rulers that bore the title of Enogie or Ogie but now these rulers bear Obi.
It shows that the aboriginal Igbos in Anioma couldn't allow their leaders bear foreign titles.

The airport, viewing centers were constructed by Gov E. Uduaghan; an Ishekiri man, not urhobo. STOP MISINFORMING!

Even at that, can Delta match Akwaibom?

justirich:
Op must be high on something. stop associating delta state with Igboland. If you are looking for extra landmass for your proposed Biafra, you have failed. We have not forgotten how you people treated other Deltans during the brief occupation before federal forces liberation. Asaba, Warri and Oghara are in Delta state, South-south zone. Thanks

Nzeogwu, the initiator of the 'Igbo' coup was from Okpanam, a town northwest of Asaba.
Ahaba has existed for thousands of years, a less than 50 year old region creation can not define it.

The snake be wan testify

What Muslims say among each other, is not the same thing that they say for the consumption of the Westerners.

Word!

ziryboy:
You must be a stupid man for thinking this way. So you are hoping boko haram to take over all the state in North? Useless ibo man, very soon terrorism you people are praying for will soon hit your home and scarter all your family and your generation

May amadioha strike you with madness!
Useless thing!

op is a yorubaman

Cutehector:
Warri girls make life easy for u... Dey tell u d koko there and then.. Delta central and Delta south girls r my type of good...

Anioma (Delta North) babes are decent in general.

these people are terrible! you still go on to burn a church when you are under attack from your fellow muslims.

too much!

sweetgala:
Sincerely I always thought Akwa Ibom was part of Igbo territory. And I'm sure duting my time one Radio Baifar I hears a few SS people identify with the cause

Ibibios are not Igbos, but our interests hardly clash.

When I heard that buhari used unnecessary military force in Cross River, I was angry as if it happened in Delta.

We the Igbos and Ibibios and related tribes have mutual respect for one another.

Koolmexxi:
Doesn't matter anymore.... We're stuck with PMB...

have you heard of secession?

An attempt to win over southerners that are angry with buhari over his unorthodox use of military force on alleged pirates in Cross River.

Mobile policemen can handle baby drowners.

Bishop Jakes gave an almost perfect answer, but I think he should hammered more on the religious freedom of christians because this 'secular' people show anti-christian tendencies.

Astrology is shiit

ibrokola:
True talk. And you have spoken well. But the question is whether BHT is a religious or Political terrorist group?

But buhari has been made president!
It has to be religious.

We have enough problems on our own, I no understand this interest in Greece.

ibrokola:
The day you start looking at it wholistically and objectivity is the day you'll understand BHT. Its purely political. It was the first set of BHT that could be said to believe they were fighting for religious reasons.

The northerners brought this upon their selves, political or not political, if the violent culture and ideologies have not been there, there would be nobody to become boko haram terrorists.
This culture of violence has been there since the dan fodio jihad, it has been manifesting as pogroms and religious riots against non-muslims but it wasn't addressed because 'infidels' were being killed.

After the bomb blast it is even rumored that angry muslims went on to burn down a celestial church.

These men do not know that their people comes first before the country

Jarus:
If the American community in Nigeria invites you to their independence day event, no harm in attending.

No problem if I'm an ordinary citizen, but not a senior law maker.
These men have no pride.

Ibsgal:
When those who know nothing about diplomacy or pragmatism feel the need to condemn those who practice it.

This isnt diplomacy, this is over familiarity and over sabi.

Look at the over emphasized Caucasian features.

Buhari will weep at this news

Nice!
