These people had traces of their origin with Yorubas in many aspects.

Funny! We are even closer to Igbo than Yoruba. Infact, some Urhobo clans trace parts of their origin to Igboland.

Mumumu charge and bail lawyers from the southern part of this country

Your sentimental comments here just prove that we are not one, and can't continue as one country. Just a matter of time, this British establishment will fade away.

So this guys are actually waiting for people to talk on their behalves. This is serious!

Nigeria asked for Independence. If they need Independence, they should come and meet Buhari in Aso-Rock one on one and ask for it instead of sitting somewhere and saying we want this.

My major concern again is this, why didn't they do all of this during Jonathan's regime. This clearly pin point to the fact that they hate Buhari and every other Nigerians as far as I know. This even makes me to accurately assume that even the hike in the prices of commodity can not be far reached without the involvement of this people 90%. But we will bear it all together. United We Stand! ONE NIGERIA.

Who is Buhari? Is he the owner of Nigeria? Nonsense!

Whiteangel1234:
Hope you are aware that Biafra Army on the way to Lagos Ore Liberated Midwest and Declares it Republic Of Benin with capital in Benin City Under Albert Okonkwo as the Head of state on 19th of September 1967

Below is the flag

You mean Igbo people are the ones to declare republic for us Urhobo, Bini, Ishan, Isoko, etc?

Whiteangel1234:
For now Biafra Military is still acting on the mandate given to Ojukwu by the Eastern Region council .


They do not recognize south South Region but Eastern Region so the same Map is still applicable until maybe if there is a plebiscite /referendum and South South decide to join Nigeria

Is Delta State which you people included in this your Biafra map part of the old Eastern Region of Nigeria? Mind you, I'm not against restoration of your Igbo Biafra.

Evil religion! Worshippers of the devil. Once you ignorantly convert to that religion just know that your sanity is finished! You will never remain the same; demonic forces will possess you to become violent!

Urhobo is an offshoot of Bini. Yes or No??

No! Urhobo and Bini are offsprings of the same ancestors. They are brothers. Offshoot is like when you say "father and son".

Lovenorth:
I am 100% with them, South are all united against our region so there is no one that can convince us to vote for them. We are for anybody that comes from the North, we must protect our interest, we must not vote for the people that dislike us, it is not an offense to love yourselves

So also you must not form one country with those who dislike you!

Cashsteady:
Rwanda is a very small country na with relatively low population,Not even up to a state in Nigeria. Definitely it's gonna be easy to govern .. nothing special

Is China also small? Is Brazil also small? Is South Africa also small? Is Australia also small? Is Indonesia also small? Etc. You have no excuse for Nigeria's failure to provide good governance.

Blackfire:
All this southern noise makers



We are talking of competence they are shouting tribalism

By the time South gain power and give all key positions to Southerners, hope you won't also complain, hope you will still agree it should be based on competence?

timesup234:
only 7 nuclear bomb will destroy America. America military might is a myth that don't exist. You ought to be a baboon to believe the garbage you read online

It's clear that you are a fool to assume that a country that has 5800 nuclear warheads will fold its hands and allow another country with a mere 250-350 nuclear warheads to bomb it. Is it not the same China that America liberated from Japanese colonisation and occupation during the second world war?. You must be an ignorant kid.

timesup234:
Australia is a ant as in tse-tse fly. It won't take China up to 72 hrs to destroy America. They will leave Australia for North Korea. North Korea will trun stupid Aussies into radioactive ash

You mean China that has only "350" nuclear warheads will destroy America that has a colossus "5800" nuclear warheads? How will they succeed with that? China is like "an ant" in deadly weapons-possession compared to USA.

Patrioticman007:
That Nigeria is a Federal Republic as such national interest should supersede tribal & religious sentiments. FG should do the needful, by finding lasting solutions to these issues, if not illiterates & touts, the likes of Igboho, shekau II, kanu the porn star will be killing innocent citizens using these issues as excuse.

Has FG done the "needful" concerning arbitrary "alcohol ban" by the Kano State Govt?

osuofia2:
Fake news, in real sense, the South needs the North more than the North needs South.
We feed the South, in turn what do they contribute to Nigeria aside given us problems up and down.
Lord Lugard shouldn't have joined us with those bunch of noise makers called southerners.

You claim to feed the South, yet there is imminent famine and hunger in the North, and none in the South.

Mossadd:
which USA are you talking about?is it the one that couldn't destroy ordinary Taliban with ak47 for 20 years or you have another USA in mind?

The same Taliban and the Mujahedeen chased out the Russian military forces from Afghanistan. Guerrilla warfare is difficult to fight, you know!

zombieHUNTER:
Imo State is the forth state with highest crude oil in the country...

You mean Imo State has more crude oil than Bayelsa State? Because in production ranking, Akwa Ibom is first followed by Delta and Rivers.

Ibkhaleel:
what did you have, what did you even know?

At the same time you had groundnuts in the North, we had massive palm oil/palm kernel, rubber, cocoa and timber production in the South, which fetched Nigeria more money than what you produced up north during the colonial and the 1960s. If you are in doubt, the records are there for you to confirm.

cheruv:
Isoko 2.. Isoko north and south
Ijo 3... Patani, Bomadi and Burutu
Ṣekiri, +Usobo & Ijo 3... Warri North, South and West

Urhobo towns and villages are also in Patani LGA. They usually produce the Local Govt Vice Chairmanship position.

aryzgreat:
Urhobo is in Delta state and they don't have any igbo dialect. That IFEOMA there is actually ufuoma an urhobo name erroneously written as IFEOMA by the author cos they sound alike but have different meaning

Have you been to Orogun kingdom? If you have ever been to Arhagba town and other communities of Orogun you will not argue with me. Arhagba speaks more of Igbo dialect (Ukuani-Igbo) than Urhobo even though they are Urhobo community.

Daarreenn:
Igbos and Yorubas teaming up to ruin Ẹdo's name. Imagine the surprise

Both of the lovers were likely Edoid people. Akoko Edo even though is an Edoid territory, the indigenes also speak and sometimes bear Yoruba's names. Likewise Orogun even though it's an Urhobo clan (Edoid) also speak a variant of Igbo dialect and sometimes answer Igbo names.

NwaEzefuNaMba:
Someone here is claiming that Ijaw is majority in Rivers and Delta, how funny you can be.
How do you convince any sane person that Ijaw is majority in this Delta talk more of Rivers?
An Andoni man will chop pff your head the day you address him as an Ijaw man talk more of Ogoni? I even saw where Bonny is included as an Ijaw populated local government.

There are three ethnic groups in Bayelsa, namely;
Ijaw
Epie
Akassa
Even an Ogbia man will not accept the Ijaw tag, I don't know where you guys get the idea of Bayelsa being a homogeneous Ijaw state.

You omitted Urhobo who are also indigenes of Bayelsa State. Infact, the present Deputy Governor of Bayelsa State Senator Lawrence Ewhrudjakpor is an Urhobo man from Ofoni town in Sagbama LGA of Bayelsa State.

Captain8:
shut up...you are not from delta state.... people that know in and out are talking and you also is talking.... you that dont even where warri is.... you think i dont know you... go back to your kogi state

You have no fact to back up your bogus claims and you are embarrassed that someone here has exposed your lies.

Captain8:
urohbo 10 LGAs isoko 3LGAs northern delta 9LGAs.....are you mad? how many LGAs then is in delta state?
go back to your kogi state

Delta North has 9 LGAs (Igbo), Delta Central has 8 LGAs (completely Urhobo), Delta South has 8 LGAs (jointly owned by Isoko, Ijaw, Itsekiri and Urhobo). Total (9+8+8=25). Break down of the 8 LGAs in Delta South: Isoko North LGA and Isoko South LGA (owned by Isoko only), Bomadi LGA and Burutu LGA (owned by Ijaw only), Patani LGA (jointly owned by Ijaw and Urhobo), Warri South LGA (jointly owned by Itsekiri and Urhobo), Warri South-West LGA (jointly owned by Itsekiri and Ijaw) and Warri North LGA (jointly owned by Itsekiri and Ijaw). In summary, the entire 8 LGAs in Delta Central are owned by only Urhobo people while Urhobos are also indigenous to Warri South LGA and Patani LGA making it a total of (8+2=10) 10 LGAs. On the other hand, Isoko has 2 LGAs (Isoko South and Isoko North) but some of their communities are also parts of Ndokwa East LGA making it a total (2+3=3). So what is your point of argument? Are there not 25 LGAs in Delta State? Is Delta North Senatorial District (Igbo) not having 9 LGAs? Is Delta Central Senatorial District (Urhobo) not having 8 LGAs? Is Delta South Senatorial District (Isoko, Ijaw, Itsekiri and Urhobo) not having 8 LGAs also?

scholes0:
And those two are the least populated LGs in the state, but somehow always churn out elephant votes during elections.

Those are the abnormalities caused by Ibori and his corrupt PDP gang in Delta State in a bid to always rig out opposition parties particularly Great Ogboru. I could remember during Ibori and Uduaghan's administrations how they provided speed boats and used money to enticed ignorant people from uplands to go register in the the riverine communities of Burutu, Bomadi and Warri South-West LGAs in a bid to swell up the voters registers of those places for election rigging purposes. It was a strategic plan because PDP know elections are hardly monitored in the creeks and swamps. Can you imagine that since then votes coming from those sparsely populated rural creeks/ fishing villages of Burutu now doubles votes from the densely populated and large city of Warri? How do you explain? It's against any sane logic!

OfoIgbo:
According to what you have written down, there are just 3 Ijaw LGAS in in Delta state. The others are shared

For Anioma people
Aniocha north
Aniocha south
Ika northeast
Ika south
Ndokwa east
Ndokwa west
Ukwuani
Oshimili north
Oshimili south

For Urhobo
Ethiope east
Ethiope west
Ughelli north
Ughelli south
Sapele
Uvwie
Okpe
Udu


So as you can see, Aniomas and Urhobos far outnumber Ijaws in Delta state

And also Bomadi and Patani are by far, the least populated LGAS in Delta state

Don't mind that guy, he's just trying to mislead people. Even Patani is not a completely Ijaw LGA because it includes several Urhobo towns and villages such as Uduophori and Odorubu. Patani LGA is shared by both Ijaw and Urhobo. That is why since the creation of Patani LGA political positions are shared between Ijaws and Urhobos such that if Ijaws produce the LG Chairman Urhobos usually come up with the LG Vice Chairman. In summary, Ijaws only have 2 homogeneous LGAs (Burutu and Bomadi) in Delta State and share 3 other LGAs (Warri South, Warri North and Patani) with Itsekiris and Urhobos.

Captain8:
six Ijaw LGAs in delta state...
bomadi 100% Ijaw..
burutu 100% Ijaw..
patani 100% Ijaw..
wari nort Ijaw Itsekiri..
wari sout Ijaw Itsekiri..
wari south west Ijaw urhobo...
so you name 9 fictitious LGAs?

Why are you deceiving yourself Mr man? In the first place Ijaws are not indigenous to Warri South LGA. That is why since the creation of that LGA, no Ijaw has been a Local Govt Chairman or Vice Chairman. Those positions only rotate between Itsekiris and Urhobos in Warri South. Secondly, Patani LGA is not a completely Ijaw LGA because it includes many indigenous Urhobo towns and villages such as Uduophori and Odorubu. That is why there is always power sharing in Patani LGA in such a way that if Ijaw produces the Local Govt Chairman Urhobo usually produce the Local Govt Vice Chairman. It seems you are not from Delta State that is why you don't know all these.

Omoluabi1stborn:
Warri North - 187,500
Burutu. - 286,400
Warri south - 429,600
Warri South West - 160,500
Bomadi - 118,500

Total = 1,182,500

NB I DIDN'T deduct Itshekiri and other non ijaws in that place.





5,683,000 + 1,182,500

= 6,865,500
Rivers + delta + bayelsa population = 6,865,500

Don't mind him oh! He is just trying to mislead the reading public. Ijaws are not indigenous to Warri South LGA. Warri South is shared by Itsekiris and Urhobos. No Ijaw. Ijaws only have 2 homogeneous LGAs (Bomadi and Burutu) and share 3 others with Itsekiris and Urhobos (Warri North, Warri South and Patani LGAs). I'm from Delta State. Ijaws are not up to 700,000 in Delta State. They are a minority group in the state

Captain8:
Ijaws own 5LGAs in delta...Urohbo Isoko own 7LGAs. oya tell me me which tribe is the largest in delta state?

Ijaws own 12LGAs in rivers state.....ikwere own 6LGAs in rivers state.... oya tell me the largest tribe in rivers state? dont run o

It seems you are not from Delta State or you just deliberately want to mislead the reading public. Ijaws only own 2 homogeneous LGAs (Bomadi and Burutu) in Delta State and share the other 3 with Itsekiris and Urhobos (Warri North, Warri South and Patani LGAs). Urhobos have 8 homogeneous LGAs (Ethiope East, Ethiope West, Okpe, Sapele, Udu, Ughelli North, Ughelli South and Uvwie LGAs) owned by only them and share 2 other LGAs with Itsekiris and Ijaws (Warri South and Patani LGAs). In total, Urhobos are indigenous to 10 LGAs (8+2=10). Isoko has 2 homogeneous LGAs (Isoko North and Isoko South) but are also found in Ndokwa East LGA, thereby making it 3 LGAs for Isoko. If you should combine Urhobo LGAs (10) and Isoko LGAs (3) that will give you a grand total of 13 LGAs (10+3=13) out of the 25 LGAs of Delta State. Ijaws are just minority in Delta State.
