If this is true then the heat is getting to Putin. Just last week He told Macron that he will not back down. Interesting days ahead

If you want to know if he will back down or not, tell Ukraine to reject the offer. Body go tell them after 6 months of shelling.

Kindly enlighten, sir.

JANK23H:
Just like some of your excerpts have also "perhaped".Slayerforever even when on to "think".

Since your new preoccupation is to learn about Ijo history, Google these:

Professor J.S, Coleman in his book titled Nigeria: Background to Nationalism (Los Angeles, 1963, p. 28) describes the Ijaws as "perhaps the most ancient in West Africa whose Language has little or no affinity with any other in Nigeria ". In similar vein Professors Stride and Ifeka submit: "Some of the oldest inhabitants of the Atlantic Coast are the Jola, Pepeh and Sorer of the Senegambia, and Sherbro and Bulom of Sierra Leone. Along the Guinea Coast, the Lagoon folk of Ivory Coast, the Guan of Southern Ghana and the Ijaws of the Niger Delta (underlining ours) must be included among the most ancient of the coastal dwellers." (.G.T Stride and C. Ifeka, peoples and empires of West Africa 1000-1800, 1971, P.S).
8. Dr. P.A Talbot, once acting Resident of Benin Division (1920), calls the Ijaws "this strange people- a survival from the dim past beyond the dawn of history- whose language and customs are distinct from those of their neighbors and without trace of any tradition of time before they were driven-southwards into these regions of sombre mangroves." (Tribes of the Niger Delta, 1932, p.5). In another context, Dr. Talbot submits firmly; "their (Ijaws) origin is wrapped in mystery. The people inhabit practically the whole Coast, some 250 miles in length, stretching between the Ibibio and Yoruba. The Niger Delta therefore, is…occupied by this strange people." (Ibid)
9. Professor Wilfrid D. Hambly testifies: " Beliefs held by the Ijaws are of particular interest because these people are probably the oldest inhabitants of Nigeria."(Serpent Worship in Africa, (Chicago, U.S.A. 1931, p.16). In another context, Professor Wilfrid Hambly declares firmly: "Pythons are held sacred throughout the region of Marsh lands and waters inhabited by the most ancient tribe of all, the Ijaws." "(underlining ours Ibid).
10. These and more are objective and honest historians and writers who have no ulterior motive for their work. They are unanimous in their submission that the Ijaws are the indigenous and most ancient people of the Delta and the riverine, coastal areas of Nigeria

It is because they couldnt say where Ijaw came from since their Language and Culture sticks out like a sore thumb in all of the Niger-Delta. If only they knew the Ijaw were immigrants from Togo.

why does the U.S really want to have a base in Ukraine close to Russia ?

They call it NATO but it just U.S Troops , check all nato base force , you will see 300- 500 eu soldiers and over 1000 u.s soldiers

Puttin should just look Cuba way again and put his war heads there too , then there is something to negotiate about , that was what I expected not bombing Ukraine .

Just read an article about Russia and their "Crumple Zone". Basically, the territory known as Ukraine is Russia's crumple Zone. If NATO takes Ukraine, they will take Russia effortlessly.

Shiver99:
The geographical area that Igbos occupy is one of the most fertile areas in the entirety of West Africa; bounded by rapidly decertifying arid areas to the north and infertile mangroves to the south. It was a veritable stroke of genius by Igbo ancestors that they were able to possess this section of prime land.

As result, Igbos were able to reach levels of civilisation and critical thinking not available to many at the time.

As stated before, due to very limited resources and investment in Archaeology very little is known about Ancient Igbos to a particular point, but we can see that in later Igbo works; where times of abundance and peace led them to create magnificent works.

Even the Bible said " The people of Gad has chosen the best land for themselves".

Does anyone really think Russia has fought Ukraine? People don't even know Russia won WW2 and not U.S

Ukraine just dey catch trips. When Russia drop one better bomb inside Kyiv, all of them go jakpa go border.

Emyogalanya:
This thread is a response to the one created by. kollinzgee
No Igbo man should stand with Russia at all.
Do you even know or remembered the role Russia played In the Biafra war?
So now suddenly they realise that the two regions deserve independence, but not Biafra. Putin is a hypocrite. How come he is no longer talking of their independence , it's now down to NATO this European Union that. He only used that as smokescreen. Not out of love for the people of the region
And yes no Igbo man should stand with Ukraine too.
Nigeria government has dealt with Igbo same way Russia is dealing with them now. I can only urge Igbos to stand � with the oppressed people from the two regions seeking independence, and all oppressed people from all over the world

Point of correction. Russia played no part in the civil war, rather USSR did of which Ukraine was a principal part of the USSR. Does it account for nothing that in all the Soviet republic's, only Russia, Ukraine and Khajastan had nukes?

Official piracy.

Just tell them that NATO is fulani herdsmen and Ukraine is Benue state and Russia is Igboland/ Biafra.

inspectorg:
OP! U well?.... Wetin happen if them depoly this thing up north about 10 yrs before now..... Nigeria go end?

You school for Ekpoma?

That Nzekiev is one stupid Igbo guy demonizing everything IPOB on Twitter. Fool even claims he is based in the east. So he was in Ukraine all along, but having strong opinions on what he knows nothing about?

planetx:
The flamethrowers, when it explodes in the air it sucks out all the oxygen killing people by suffocation. Russia is still playing games with them while the Western media is hyping them as some heroic defenders.

I saw a video demonstration of that flame thrower on Twitter this morning and I am at loss as to how Ukraine is not all running towards the border. I am just learning about it sucking oxygen as well here. Just the kind of destruction I saw on that video is not what I can even wish an enemy. Hope Racist Ukrainians also have their own flame thrower, cos this is going to end very badly for them this coming week.

kponkedenge:
In 1994, the US, UK, Russia and Ukraine singed the Budapest memorandum, in which the three powers offered assurances that they would respect Ukraine's territorial integrity. Ukraine gave up it's nuclear weapons as part of this treaty.

So, trying to blame everything on Zelinsky and absorb Russia from any fault doesn't even make sense.

NATO also gave Russia guarantee that they will not expand beyond east Germany. That was even the agreement that made German reunification possible. NATO gas gone on to admit up to 16 countries into NATO thereafter and every singular one of those countries has been east of Germany into the very places NATO said they won't go into. The coupe the grace was Ukraine, right at the very borders of Russia.

Who Dem dey insult like that?

kponkedenge:
All the unrest in Crimea, Donbass, Donetsk and Luhansk region were all ochestrated by Putin, funding separatist to cause commotion and use that as a reason for fake "peace keeping" just to expand his country.

I don't know if you are aware, but these regions you just mentioned, the inhabitants/Indigenes are ethnic Russians. How did that stupid Zelinsky think he will subjugate ethnic Russians in Ukraine with the help of NATO, while the Big Bear - Mother Russia looks on helpless?

To my best of Knowledge, Russians have never been subjugated in their entire history, and if anyone will do that, it is not small small Zelinsky and his tiny Ukraine.

Ukraine is an artificial country just like Nigeria, with numerous ethnic groups in it, with one of the major ethnic groups being Russians.

After Putin declared independence for those Russians in Ukraine, stupid Zelinsky rather than de-escalate tensions, decided to declare martial law and call up reservist and began going on war footing? With Russia?

Putin just destroyed Ukraine's weapons warehouses in Kiev, all those weapons they sent to them to fight war is now ashes. Now stupid Zelinsky is telling Ukrainians to stay home and "and not panic"

Pride goes before a fall.

Please what does Russia buy from UK that UK has been parroting "Sanctions". I though they will put boots on ground for their friends in Kiev? Will the sanction affect even the poorest person in Russia? Russia is self sufficient in Agriculture and every other commodity they wish to buy can be sourced from their "No-Limits" ally - China.

Putin just gave all these failing western leaders something to use and shine small as if they are doing anything. If they born them well, make them send troops to Ukraine make we see.

Same West that has kept so many African tribes under bondage in their artificially created countries in Africa? Ndi ara.

Eighty Bucks? Etibo?

SaintBishop:
Which Igbo land? Are you talking about Bonny or the Okrikans? cause as you can see in the screenshot,the Okrikans don't want anything to do with igbos,why no let them be?

We will,after we have uprooted the Ijaw from these stolen lands. Every Igbo tribe rules itself. We will let those Igbo tribes be after we have uprooted the Ijaw infiltrators from their lands. That is why they are our brothers and we are our brothers keepers.

SaintBishop:
Isn't Asari Igbo according to you people? But why do you all keep dragging people who want nothing to do with you?

No Igbo drags Ijaw infiltrators in those Igbo lands, it has always been Ijaw infiltrators claiming " they are not Igbo".

You will all be weeded out.

RobbStark:
You can do better boy.
We are not farmers so we don't celebrate New yam festivals.
Scrapping of hair is not exclusively your thing. I think most cultures do same.
In fact, the Ijaws are not known for that.
Get you fact rite.

Whatever you say here won't change anything.
I am still waiting for one nlander to come in and say he is Ibo at the same time from Bonny or Opobo.
Until then, you all shud continue dancing naked here.

Long live the Ijaw Race
Long live the Ijaws
God bless our lands

Most of these Ijaw dilution came after the Anglo Aro war. These boat pirates reproduce just like Fulani without regards for the Eco system. Now they feel they are now large enough to chance the real aborigines of the land. Okay.

Anyone hear how Asari Dokubo has been allegedly recruiting UGM to fight IPOB in the east? Nigeria is Ijaw saving grace.

Ijaw people tried to steal Land from Igbos!! An unforgivable sin.

They actually want the guy to kiss their ass, cos they have money.

Well, na investments.

Malawian:
ATM at alaba suru hardly dispense cash, opposite all of them, there are at least three POS operators. I think there is a correlation there

I just learned that it is even those POS operators that goes early in the morning and empty those ATMs, leaving everyone having to now go and patronize them.

Nigerians and our shaddy attitudes.

Oga that is not Igbo soil.

NGpatriot:
This is sad..

Honestly, is there a way such a big market with lots of Fulani and their cows will not be heavily fortified with Military presence? We know the real owners of those cows are serving and retired military men.

So Unknown gunmen came killed and burnt Fulani for hours, without a single shot fired back at them?

The people acting these film in the South East. What does it profit you? Biafra is certain and it will come.

Is there even one single picture of Kyari in detention? man fit even dey him parlour right now dey collect head.

blaise26abj:
It is statements like this that makes it hard for the east to taste power . You need others to rule Nigeria .

Either in Nigeria or Biafra, una go collect.

benuejosh:
All the criminals will be happy because he was their nightmare. But, don't be so happy. It's simply because we don't want to extradite him. Otherwise, the video and everything wasn't vivid. His face and clothes were not shown in the video. There's no way i will believe it was Kyari in that car. Then all of a sudden they showed us dollars and before i could blink my eyes they showed us when he was beside his car. Why didn't they show us the moment he stepped down from the car they said he was uptill the moment he got to his SUV. Why was it the Kyari police boys that discovered this guys from the airport with coke? Where there no other officials who should handle that? Who did the video? Kyari is going no where to America. NDLEA is only trying to keep him back for us to deal with all this criminals from the eastern part.

If you weren't this stupid, you would have asked yourself this question: If Kyari was killing criminals, how come there are still criminals left?

Igbo people say, Agwo anaghi eri Agwo ibe ya.

Rather than ignore and allow it blow over, you come with spurious claims of manipulation.. okay, can the security aide unsmell the smell he was furiously holding his nose against

Nothing is blowing over. Tinubun is a man of the peepoo.
