wiseone28: They are not indigenous to Akwa Ibom, the indigenous we should be talking about here should lie on the transformed Igbo's and ibibios who are occupying Arochukwu which is an indigenous Ibibio land. These guys you are hampering on are a small community who had trespassed on people's land and refused to leave, they had to be carved in to the state as they had no place to go. They are occupying Ibibio land and it was fair not to turn them to displaced people. If not, the land would have fallen under Abia territory. That's why people have problem with the Igbo's, they come and trade and buy land before you know it, the land has become an extension of their ancestry.
Igbo-speaking part of South-south have over 45% of Crude oil obtained from the Niger Delta..I want BIAFRA to be only for Igbo-speaking part of South south, Middle belt and South East.. No Ijaw,Ogoni or Akwacross in BIAFRA.. Our Ndoki brothers have a huge gas deposit in Ohaobu community in Ukanafun LGA, Akwaibom State..Let Biafra be for Igbo-speaking part of Nigeria

survivor10: Igbos have suffered. I hope that you are not trying to deny Egbema being Igbo too?
Igbos of the south East are responsible for the identity denial seen in Igbo-speaking part of South south. I'm from Mgbede, Egbema in ONELGA and we are proudly Igbo..We have on several occasions faced marginalization and humiliation by other Igbo-speaking groups because we identify wholly as pure Igbo.. When Mike Okiro was made the IG of police, Igbo people from Abia, Anambra and Enugu started a protest saying Yaradua didn't choose Ogbonnaya Onovo because He was an Igbo man while Mike was not an Igbo,hence the president's preference..That protest alone generated fear among Egbema people..Now, Egbema people are seeing themselves as a distinct ethnic group in Rivers and Nigeria as a whole
gidgiddy: Then that means that your grasp of Igbo is very bad. The first time I went to Agbor's main market, I understood what they said, although I had to listen more attentively because some of their words have different intonation. I understand Ika even more than I understand Abakiliki dialect. The video below is a girl speaking Ika language, every Igbo man will understand what the girl is saying, but no Edo or Bini man can understand her
Ika speaks and understand central Igbo language and have either Igbo First name or last name..For Ika person to understand Bini,he has to learn it as a new language..
You're suffering from Allergic rhinitis, a condition of persistent catarrh and sneezing.. Take Vitamin C, Lorantadine and Vitamin D.. Be taking Vitamin C everyday for 3 months..It will go and you will give a testimony just like me
Zooposki: Who drew the map? Did they consult the owners of those locations to check if the map was accurate? Using the map as if it was approved by the courts. You guys are just too funny.
I want Nigeria to disintegrate along ethnic lines through referendum.. Plebiscite hass to decide the fate of all these people who were Igbo before 1967 and stopped being Igbo after the Civil war in 1970
Zooposki: The historical map has all that region as Benin Kingdom.
If Nigeria is to divide along ethnic groups, then we have to use that map to take over all Igbo territories..We are not talking about Kingdom made up of many ethnicities but a tribe
I'm so excited about seeing the agitation for self determination by Ibom people.. Akwaibom should go along with their Cross River brothers.. Do you know Akwaibom people in Lagos State most definitely identify with Ndigbo than any group? In Lagos,Most Akwaibom people join Igbo social friends clubs and meetings.. Akwaibom to the World.. I'm proudly Igbo from Mgbede, Egbema In ONELGA, Rivers State.. My LGA is the largest producer of Oil and gas in Rivers State.. Igbo people should clamor for all Igbo-speaking Biafra republic.. Nnamdi Kanu has awakened Igbo ethnic consciousnesses among us... BIAFRA through Plebiscite,not through bullets
No inch of Igboland will be left behind..ICC, UN etc will present the Historical Map of Nigeria before 1967.. It's either they join their brothers or they join Nigeria by vacating our historical land..This is what Will happen should Nigeria disintegrate
Move to Lagos..Asaba advantage is its closeness to Onitsha..Move to Lagos bro.. I'm Igbo from Egbema Rivers State. Asaba has nothing to offer you unless Hotel works.
MalcoImX: �� *Igbos due North, Northerners down East - An Informal Census*
An *informal Census* was conducted by an Igbo Organization.
The Group discovered that there are *Twenty Million Igbos living in Northern Nigeria*, out of which Sixteen Million are permanently resident and Four Million are Economic Migrants moving on seasonal basis.
In addition, they found out that *there are Four Million Northerners living in Igbo Land,* out of which Two Million are permanent residents and the remaining Two Million are Economic Migrants switching on seasonal basis.
What is intriguing was that _*the entire Four Million Northerners living in Igbo land are uneducated menial laborers and petty traders*_: viz watchmen, Cattle attendants in abattoirs, Cobblers etc.
Consternatingly, there was *a single account of a Tiv Man*, a Christian, from Benue *who built a Petrol Station along Enugu bye-pass in Enugu State*, however, on the day of commissioning the indigenes discovered that the Station belonged to a Northerner and insisted vehemently by interdicting its operations , *that the said Station must be sold to an Igbo Indigene before it would be allowed to operate*.
Today, throughout Nigeria, *it is only in Igbo Land that no other Nigerian is allowed to gain admission into their Universities*, Employment or Political appointments in their domains.
Yet, in the North and the South West *there are States that have appointed Igbos* as Commissioners and Advisers eg Lagos, Kano, Yobe, Borno etc.
As big as *the Onitsha International Market, no other tribe is allowed* from Yoruba land or the North to have even a corner shop, yet they are in all Markets across the North and South West without any hinderance.
Anyim Pius Anyim, is the only SGF in Nigerian History that has *100% Igbos as support Staff* in his Office. Is he an SGF for Nigeria or Biafra?
Igbos should learn to keep quiet & tolerate others* or move to BIAFRA.!!
*One Love Nigeria* ��

You're a liar..Move away from your Ogbomosho town to anywhere in Igbo land and compete with the natives in business activities..Stop lying.. A.A Rano filling stations, Chicken Republic, Adide supermarket etc are present in Igbo land and are all owned by non-Igbo.. What prevents you from investing In other parts of Nigeria apart from South West? What about Cross River, Akwaibom, Rivers ,Benue, And Delta? How many Yoruba owned properties in Akwaibom? Or is Akwaibom an Igbo land?
