Osodi Osuji is the greatest Igbo man i've ever seen, a man who can identify the disorder plaguing his people. I'm not in da mood to argue with some ..... , so amma just agree with you all. Igbo women have birth to the rest of Nigeria and beyond; evidence--you find Igbo people everywhere in Nigeria and beyond. Now have a nice day.

Scout60: Boy understand something.
Kanuri nd fulani are they not hausa. Rivers nd akwa ibom are ibos from ibo daughters.
Google ibo history nd read for your self
my guy you're funny and still tryna be funny. I guess Niger state people are now "Igbos by Igbo daughters" since Mariam Babangida (IBB's wife) is an Igbo daughter?

In the same way, Edo people are also igbos since Stella Odua married from there. Or maybe Imo is now Ijaw since Deizani Allison Madueke married from there.

I pity this ur pathetic Ben Onwuka behaviour, another "Igbos own Eastern region" freak, thats why Eastern region is dead an gone forever.

kel4soft: Well, King Jaja of Opobo had so many slaves from Igbo lineage that he made some Chiefs in Opobo namely Obomanu, Nzekwe, Patesi OkoJaja, and so many chiefs I can't really name here.

Bonny: Oko-Jumbo is an Igbo slave just like Jaja.

Finally, Andoni refused to identify with the Ibanis clamining they are Obolos, if you traced that, you get to Efik.
Andoni can not Identify with the Ibani because they are different Kingdoms entirely, which is the Obolo (Andoni) people of the Ijaw nation.

Is Ibani now a different Kingdom from Kalabari, Okrika & Nembes? Aren't they all Ijaws? Do the Kalabari people force Ibani people to identify as Kalabaris?

We Ijaws know ourselves even though we have our different clans/Kingdoms, these are just ancient administrative units of the Ijaw nation and each of these units do thing their way and even fashion their own dialects.

The reason why you confuse Andonis as non-Ijaws is because most Clans/Kingdoms at the Fringes of Ijawland are plagued with the loss of their Ijaw dialect. From Apoi in Ondo thru' Kiagbodo in Delta, Epie/Atissa, Ogbia, Engenni in Bayelsa and Degema, Engenni, Abua, OPOBO and the Andonis (Andoni, Eastern Obolo & Ibeno LGs) in Rivers & akwa Ibom states- the story remains the same.

For proper education on the identity of the Andonis, pls read The History of Andoni (Obolo) -by Nkparom Ejituwu.
If you have any questions, pls don't hesitate to ask.

Onlytruth: To answer that question we must also asked WHERE DID IJAW COME FROM? The two are inseparable questions.
There have been very sound arguments made here in Nairaland that "Ijo" are from GHANA, and were European porters who served the early European slave traders from 1400s. There is no cultural or linguistic link between Ijo and any other Eastern Nigerian group.
When the time comes we shall remind you of that.
Onlytruth: You are wasting your time with that iediot masquerade. For now, it would be better to remind him that Ijo own no land in the East.
No fishers, water dwellers, or boat people own any land anywhere in the world. They live on waters.
The Ijo are earliest european slaves/porters who helped the early slave dealers to conduct the ignoble trade.
Have you taken time to listen to "Ijo"? It is the most FOREIGN language you'd hear in Eastern Nigeria.
Their behavior is also totally alien to that part of Nigeria. They are LAZY and THOUGHTLESS. They contribute NOTHING to development.
Mad man identified!
Nobody cares about the rantings of a mad, immature, jealous & bitter creature.

Its really nice finally identifying some "Igbos" in Opobo Ama. Few questions though.

1. Are these the "Igbos" in Opubo Ama or SONS of Ijawmen?
2. Do they see themselves or function as IGBO CHIEFS in Opubo Ama or as IJAW chiefs?
3. What about the "Igbos slaves who were DUMPED in Opubo Ama?
PoliticsRe: os by ijawcitizen(m): 10:06pm On Jan 09, 2014
pazienza: Degema and Andoni had never been ijaw,and that haven't changed. Degema people are Edoid.
pazienza: Abua and odual are not Ijaws. As a matter of fact,abua language had been said to be a proto ibibio language.
Abagworo: Andonni is not Ijaw. I've argued this with you. Andoni is Obolo which is of Cross-river and Cameroun. Opobo is also not Ijaw but a recent kingdom founded by an Igbo slave Jaja alongside some Ibani Chiefs and people of different ethnicity. As a matter of fact in Rivers State all these Ijaw and Igbo claims are more or less like an affiliation than even belonging to any of the 2. Engenni and even Yenagoa people in Bayelsa are not Ijaws.
Mr. Abagworo, the bitterness of the fact that some Rivers people refuse the Igbo tag on them should not be used as an excuse to remove the Ijaws in Rivers from other Ijaws, THAT IS PURE JEALOUSY. And the strategy is: It is not working well for Igbos in their CLAIM for "igbo territories" in Rivers state so it must not work well for the Ijaws and the God-made people & territories in Rivers state. You can not fight God, Ijaws remain Ijaws, your petty Igbo Nairaland propaganda isn't gonna change the reality on ground.

The other ignoramuses use Language difference as the yardstick of determining who is Ijaw & who is not. That is PURE EMOTIONAL REASONING, modern humans have evolved beyond that.

Language is NEVER a yardstick for determining the erhnicity of a people. Ethnographers, Anthropologist, & Historians use the History& Culture of a people amongst other things as the yardstick. Only Educated people know this, a knowledge which seems to be far away from the slanted head humanoids.

I & other Ijaws don't dabble on Igbo issues as to who is Igbo and who is not Igbo OR come to say some Igbos are not Igbos, it is so none of my busines! So why all these swarm of flea-like Igbos and the vigorous manner in which they try in there petty reasoning in determining who is Ijaw & who is not. This is pure OBSESSION.

cheruv: Frater...there's no need arguing over this or that kos all we've to do is look at the facts which includes maps to backup or refute our claims

The Ekpeyes as everybody knows is an igboid clan(anywhere they claim descent from isn't my concern) that inhabit the area around ahoada.the two LGs(east & west) belongs exclusively to them.this is also why in the Rivers province(before independence),Ahoada division contained all Igboid parts of the province excluding oyigbo which was part of ukwa division before being annexed to rivers in 1976.even maps support this fact which leaves me wondering where the ijos of Ahoada west are huh
You're not concerned about the ancestry/decent of the ENTIRE Ekpeye (Ahoada) people because they're NOW Igbos, I'm not contesting that with you; its none of my concern. But you're concerned with FEW ex-Igbo slaves adopted as SONS in a Ijaw man's house! This is the futility of the Igbo man's logic, It sucks!

cheruv: Concerning the bonny and opobo issues,I've dwelt extensively on them so there's no need repeating myself so that peeps won't think you're hard at learning.moreover I've this feeling you don't know what CREOLE means grin
The definition of creole is not the issue here, pls prove that I didn't expose you & ur lies by repeating ur fake "dump site" history of the Bonny/Opobo people.

Admit it Mr. Man, I've put you to shame.


cheruv: As per PH matter,I'd leave that to the ikwerres kos both cartographically and otherwise,the land is theirs.they call it igweocha(white cliffs if am correct) though the Brits called it after a gentleman,Sir Harcourt.what dd the ijos call the area?[Educate me]
Oh! Now you're leaving the PH matter for Ikwerre? I thought you're their advocate, so you didn't even know nothing about PH? What a shame!

Ijaw call the area Port Harcourt. Its epicenter is what is now known as Port Harcourt Town or simply TOWN. All the Ijaw areas of PH still retain their original Ijaw names and none of them was ever "Igweocha"

cheruv: From your posts,your arguements are based on emotions which is quite understandable from a chauvinist like you,though I'd prefer facts from a cool headed gentleman.
You can still dispute the facts I presented for the Treasure base if you're not yet satisfied with my assertions cool

I'm not an Ijaw Chauvinist, Ijaws don't breed Chauvinist but Warriors, Brave men, Extraordinary people & We're gods. So I'd like to see myself as a Knight of Ijawland. I don't claim what does't belong to me like what you Igbos are doing nor claim to be superior to Igbos (even though we are) so I can never be a Chauvinist, You mR.

We don't "try" to claim Andonis as Ijaw, You don't "try" to claim the possessions you have inside your house, even a mad man is not mad when it comes to the logic of ownership.

Oyigbo, Etche, Omuma and ONELGA (though Ogba claim they migrated from Benin, that's why they have Oba of Ogbaland) are 90% Igbos which doesn't even give you 15% of Rivers population.

The Ikwerres (PHALGA, OBALGA, KELGA and EMOLGA) has also claim they originate from the Ekpeye and Ogba ancestry all traced to Benin. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ikwerre_people

So, OP your fact that Rivers State is 80% Igbos doesn't hold water.
Kel4soft, if you're truely an Ijaw man as you claim, pls don't get involved when Igbos claim other people as Igbos, let the people come and defend themselves.

ON THE BOLDED
1. AHOADA WEST
This LGA is shared between the Engenni Ijaws and the Igboid Ekpeye people. Though Ekpeye people claim not to be Igbos but of Bini origin. Being the majority in the council, the HQ is in an Ijaw community- Akinima

2. BONNY
Igbos claim there are indigenous Igbos in Bonny but attempts to identify them has proved futile. Worst of all is ther INABILITY to identify a single Igbo community in Bonny.

Bonny is a pure Ijaw community, some speak an Igbo creole due to trading ties with the Igbos in the Igbo hinterland, therefore the Igbo creole spoken there is just an "historic" language of communication which became prevalent for reasons known to them. I've explained this in my previous posts.

3. OPOBO/NKORO
The situation here is not too different from that of Bonny. Just that most Igbos confuse the origin of Opobo to be the "dumping site" of unsold Igbo slaves. LOL
Take a cue from my most ignorant Cheruv
On the map,its continous as per the ethnicities except in the Ibani communities of bonny and opobo where creole igbo is spoken due to the resettlement there of large number of unsold igbo slaves after abolition of slavery in addition to the establishment of the Great Opobo state by Jubo Jugbogha(Jaja) in 1870.
4. Port Harcourt
Cheruv present PH to us as exclusively Igbo territory, but I say PH LGA is shared by the Ijaws of Okrika & Ikwerres. PH started from the Ijaw enclaves and spreaded to the Ikwerre hinterland althogh some Ikwerre communities were included in inception of PH by the British.

PH LGA is largely confused with the present PH city most of which is in Obio/akpor LGA (Ikwerre) and spreads in others like Ikwerre, Akuku Toru, Okrika, etc. The HQ is also in Ijaw parts of PH.

cheruv: [s] From the data,we see that ogoni has 4 LG,igboid clans(ikwerre,ekpeye,ndoni etc) has 9 LG whilst Ijoid clans(kalabari,okrika,bonny etc) has 7 LG.
This is aww its it in the treasure base of Nigeria!!! wink [/s]
From the above corrections of error mischieviously made,
Ogoni- 4 LGs
Igbos/Igboids- 8 LGs
Ijaws- 9 LGs

With two LGs shared between Ijaw & Igboid groups, they are Ahoada West & PH with HQ of both in Ijaw territory.
PoliticsRe: os by ijawcitizen(m): 12:07pm On Jan 09, 2014
kel4soft: Some part of PHALGA or Port Harcourt are made up of Kalabaris and Okrika example Abuloma, Borikiri, Sandfild, Town

[s] Andoni are Obolo people not Ijaw

Opobo consist of Ijaw and Igbos as you rightly said [/s]
The fact there is some form of enmity/rivary between Opobians & Andonis doesn't make them less Ijaws, Andonis are as Ijaw as the man in Bayelsa or Okrika. I simply don't know why you say Andonis(alternatively called Obolos) are not Ijaws.

Again, where do the "Igbos" in Bonny & Opobo come from?
What are the Igbo communities in Opobo & Bonny?

PoliticsRe: Will Igbos Discard Jonathan Should APC Field An Igbo Presidential Candidate? by ijawcitizen(m): 8:50pm On Jan 08, 2014
Ikengawo: Jonathan ran against Igbos in 2011. Igbos like GEJ's character and the fact that God has guided him from grass to grace. Igbos believe in supporting a man who is being guided to success by the hands of God instead of being jealous. More over, GEJ has done what Igbos want as citizens in Nigeria. Privatized power, eliminated northern oligarchic control of the country, internatonalized Enugu airport, and most importantly banning imports of industrial products that Nigerians produce. He has shown igbo land respect by frequently visiting and working diligently to modernize Nigeria.

Don't forget that the Ijaw and Igbo are bitter enemies. This has nothing to do with tribe. Ijaws and Igbos have more real and living tensions than Igbos and Yorubas and Igbos are the only ethnic group that have supported others from other groups if we felt that person was the right man for the job, from OBJ, to Yar Adua and now GEJ.


APC fielding an igbo will be the end of APC because APC was created to destroy Igbo progress and growth in Nigeria.
Bolded is coming from an Igbo extremist. But when I write something similar, the same Igbos say "Ijaw citizen is a Yoruba pretending to be Ijaw who is set out to destroy the "LOVE" btw Igbos & SS".

Why should I bother myself over relocation of multinational HQs when I could just render them useless by making sure no oil flows. Asking people to relocate those structures is tantamount to begging them, and when they do, they see it like they've done you a favour for getting what belongs to you.

Why not just "give them an offer they can not refuse" rather than begging. In case you don't know thats the Niger Deltan tactics working for us today: GIVING PEOPLE AN OFFER THEY CANNOT REFUSE. I don't wanna run my mouth by mentioning names.

The east have come out to bury their past differences with the SS and support GEJ 110% and you insist on attacking them at every opportunity...which other region will give you such support...is it the SW that has conered your oil industry from under your nose, or the north that has sold the oil fields to themselves?

Play your game well, know your friends and your enemies, the east are not saints, but you have to choose your interest carefully, right now we have the same interest...

From what you have seen in APC so far...do you think they have any plans from the SS laying golden eggs?
During the botched constitutional confab by OBJ the east stood with the SS to demand resource control, despite the fact that just 2 of their 5 states have commercial quantities of oil, the SW stood with the north to kick against it...
Learn your first most important lesson of the year today; as far as Nigeria is concerned, We Ijaws have neither friends nor enemies, but we'd deal with every foe wherever they emanate from; be it North, South, East or West.

We believe in neighbourly co-existence where everyone respects the rights & integrity of the other. We don't have big brothers to look up to, neither have we prayed for one.

Throught history, it has been people looking up to us. So keep that "know who ur friends are" sermon to yourself. We can identify hypocrisy when we see one.

We fight our battles alone and with God's help. It was God's intervention that puts Jonathan where he is today and not by being "friends" with people.

Secondly, you should also know that Ijaws' survival does not starts & ends with President Jonathan, his emergence as President holds very little significance to the Ijaw nation. That why your support is very insignifacant although I understand you guy do what you do because it means a lot to your survival.

I laugh when I see y'all rigmarolling over petty national issues and pretending to be the Pillars of Jonathan's government when you don't even have a formidable Pillar to sustain yourselves. We Ijaws are not in the same level of reasoning with you guys, thats why we find it too tiring to respond to certain actions taken in this country; a thing you guys have taken as a daily job but which is never devoid of the pretence of Igbos coming to the defence of SS.

What is wrong with, the Igbo, a people who have suffered injustice for long to celebrate their breather under a new order of equal development? Remember the Igbo celebrated the emergence of Peter Odili, Omehia and Amaechi as governors in Rivers. We are looking forward to an Utomi or Okowa for Delta state. It is good to fight all forms of injustice. If you have the investments and numbers, will you root for someone who will destroy you?


And who told you the Ijaw has a defined geographical cluster to form a country? Except you move all to Bayelsa, there are Ijaw fishing settlements off the coasts of Rivers, AKS, Delta and Ondo, and in some areas like Opobo and Bonny, its difficult to distinguish the Igbo and Ijaw because of long cohabitation. But I don't see how all these groups in the SS will live together with Ijaw supremacists because in numbers the Igbo and Ibibio are more in the SS.

Let me tell you GEJ is of God, nothing can destroy his mission- not the North or Igbo or Yoruba.

kel4soft: Jonathan is not an innocent man.

We are not from the East(Ijaws). Just concentrate how you will realised your Biafra country and stop carrying Ijaw and other South-south people along.

I love Nigeria and hate Biafra.
Mr. Kel4soft, my "Minabo" from Opobo. I guess you mean to say Jonathan is not a PERFECT man?

Onlytruth: Mr alj-harem sharrap dia. I wonder for how long you would be on this site trying to destroy Jonathan an innocent man who decided to be true to himself and find his true base upon which to rest while projecting power.
I know you are not happy that he is president; please learn to tolerate him. You won't die in 8 years of Jonathan's presidency.
Dear Mr. Onlylies, It is you and ur Igbo folks who are destroying President Jonathan's presidency by portraying him as Pro-Igbo and selling the same to the anti-Jonathan elements in the North & SW just to further poison their minds against him.

As president of Nigeria, Dr. Jonathan choose to be fair to all sections of the country thru his developmental projects, I'm happy at the level of jubilation & appreciation from the SE but online ragworms like you are using in against the president by portraying him as a sectional leader, a false idea the opposition & anti-Jonathan elements are willing and ready to buy any time.

Jonathan did not became president by Igbo votes alone, but by the votes of ALL NIGERIANS, some in the North even defied the threat of death by Islamist to vote for Jonathan, so the Igbo claim of being the PILLAR OF JONATHAN ADMINISTRATION is really petty & shameful of a people who simply found REDEMPTION from my Ijaw people they do looked upon with disdain not long ago.

For the records, you guys are harming the presidency of my Ijaw brother by ur uncouthed statements which has since become characteristic of Igbos.

Onlytruth: As for the bolded, YES the Israelis are Palenstinians by region, though in Israel no one is really called an "Israeli". You are called a JEW or Arab or other. Gerrit?
I'm surprised you call yourselves Jews of Africa and not Palestinians of Africa. LOL..!

Listen you ignorant man! Palestine is not a region but the name of a people & culture. No sane human being would refer to Jews/Israelis as Palestinians, the Jewish Israel state asserted their separate identity from an Arab Palestine by RECLAIMING their lands and declaring an independent Israeli state in a war against the Arabs fought in the '40s. Today, PALESTINIANS are still clamouring for global recognition of their Arab state. You're simply too ignorant to know this because of ur shallow-mindedness.

Onlytruth: As for the Ukrainians, whether they like it or not, the Eastern side of Ukrain is RUSSIAN, just like the Northern part of SS is IGBO.
If "SS" forms a different nation, the IGBO would still be THERE. YOU CANNOT CHANGE THESE FACTS.
Eastern side of Ukraine is Russiahuh?!!!! Your foolishness knows no bound!

Nobody cares about your made-in-Igboland foolishness, it doesn't extend beyond Igbo land on us, else it'd surely be quenched by the blink of an eye by my Ijaw people- we'd surely burst that over-inflatted ego.

That being said, South South as a geopolitical zone has NEVER been the line of separation should a different Nation be formed so don't even imagine it for a second that some Igbos are gonna be in the same nation with the Ijaw man. The SS is just a political creation as far as Nigeria is concerned and the boundaries of its states are just imaginary, the real lines are the ethnic lines which would be the true line of separation.

I truely hopes the SNC drafts all Igbos into the SE zone and put this Igbo attachement on SS to an end once & for all. We Niger Deltans know ourselves and though they may be Igbos in SS, there are no Igbos in the Niger Delta.

Onlytruth: Jonathan is from "SS" of EASTERN NIGERIA, a region that is very very real.
Now "Go and DIE"! grin[/quote]The SS of eastern region ends at Ikwerre. Stop making enemies for your self, we Ijaws simply don't have time to be enemies with Igbos. You can not define our identity, we know who we are.

You sir, are living in a skewd reality which in essense is not reality.

Bayelsa is not in the East and never will be. Even at the division of Nigeria, nobody has the might to draft us to a "east". President Jonathan NEVER said he came from the "east"

Your assertion that 50% of Ijaw were birthed by Igbo mother makes me doubt your maturity & ur mental state/stability. So you just manufacture figures like you manufacture babies at Igboland's baby factories?

The Western world you're refering to knew the Niger Delta and traded with its city-states for centuries before an eastern Nigeria was created. So my friend, Niger Delta takes preemminence over ur most cherished east. You can not cow us under any form of magic or spell to be easterners, we know our identity, we know who we are.

You really sound childish when you declare that "most of SS REMAIN east" as if you have the power.

Why don't you go and tell the Israelis that they "REMAIN" Palestinians? Pls proceed to Ukraine, Georgia and others that they "REMAIN" USSR/Soviets.

Yeye dey smell.
