“In the villages of Odeke, Echeno, Ihile, Anocha/Uchuchu, Omabo, Ikah, Iregwu and Ujeh all in Ibaji community of the present-day Ibaji Local Government Area of Kogi.

“Between 1952 and 1986 three companies namely; Shell BP (now SPDC), ELF (now Total Fina Elf) and AGIP Energy have drilled 25 exploration wells, 2 appraisal wells and eight-core drill wells in the entire Basin out of which majority of the wells fall into Kogi”

The oil is even in the Igbo speaking parts of Kogi. Check out the village named posted there.

If Okujagu people don't consider themselves Igbo, they wouldn't have preserved the language as their mother tongue despite the immense anti Igbo campaign Hausa-Fulanis working with their Ijaw counterparts carried out in Rivers State!

They will not come forward to proclaim their Igbo tag now, because they see no strong pillar/leadership in SE to help them weather the storm that such move can generate.

You saw how spineless Ohanaeze Ndiigbo led by Nwodo went to PH to laugh and eat with Wike after Wike killed hundreds of Igbos of Obiigbo native. There was no repercussions or punishment for Wike, because the Igbo leadership is non existent.


That's the fate that awaits any Igbo group in that hate filled state that dare stand out!

If they know we have a capable, well financed with powerful worldwide connections Igbo leadership/organization in SE to keep the Igbophobes around them at Bay, they would come out!

Our problem has been basically lack of real Igbo nationalistic movement since Igbo state Union died in 1966!

IPoB is more interested in licking the buttocks of Igbophobic minorities in bid to build their Utopia Multi ethnic Biafra, the Igbos in SS know that IPOB is useless to their plight.

Ohanaeze Ndiigbo is more of congregation of hungry retired old men looking for patronage from politicians. They are of no use to anyone.

There is a big leadership vaccum in Igboland that has been gaping since 1966.
Only a well financed Igbo nationalist movement, will fill it and only then will Ndiigbo return to high pedestal we once occupied, when all Okorie from Benua to Sagbama (Osekwenike) would proudly proclaim his Igbo origin knowing that should anyone try any nonsense, he would have a solid backup in SE leadership that would raise hell, demand and unleash revenge on pepetrators of such crime through all available means.

Just wait until the UN acceeds to a referendum, you will see all of them troop out.

There are roads obviously.

They ship those things with trawlers. There are even pictures online if you searched with proper keywords

If there is Juju in the Akara, how does the Juju survive the hot oil?

Remember what okunerere does to juju?

Ariani:
These Igbo people in Bayelsa will not come out and be proud of it, because they sense no strong dedicated leadership in SE that could bankroll them against the formidable Izons!

Establish a strong Igbo nationalistic movement bankrolled by contributions of Igbo sons scattered all over the world and in Nigeria, with total commitment to empowering these groups if they bend the knee to the Igbo nation Noble cause and watch pendulum swing!

This is something we can do!

Umunnem, Igwebuike!

Igbos do not bend the knee. Infact I will disregard them as Igbos if they ever came to bend the knee. Igbo is a Nation! All Tribes together for the common goal, every tribe to itself for their personal goals.

Ekealterego:
They are not the only group. There is a smaller group called, "Buseni". I know like one or two personally, although I have not been in contact for a long time. Many of them speak some form of Igbo and even dress Igbo sometimes. They even have Igbo surnames. But they are so small that they have mixed with people around them. Even their chiefs still wear the traditional isi-agu right there in Bayelsa.
However, to be fair they just identify as "Buseni" and probably also speak other couple of native languages in addition. They are small and have been absolved. I can't call them Igbo completely but yeah..

Any tribe with 1% Igbo blood is 100% Igbo to me and we will claim and include them in the greater Igbo nation. After we have finished with all the identifiable Igbo tribes, we will look inside that Ijaw remainders and see which of them is not 100% Ijaw and excise them from the Ijaw domineering influence. Ijaw don buy Market from Igboman hand and they must pay cash.

Ariani:
Interesting.
This where we need a strong well funded Aggressive Igbo nationalism movement, to reach out to such individuals, oil their palms if need be, do some community projects in the community and Mount a sign board indicating that it was done by an Igbo body in the spirit of Igbo brotherhood.
Simple things like renovation of their dilapidated community primary and secondary school, providing chairs that would have logo and Igbo tag well printed on it.
These things are not hard, the only thing missing is the purposeful leadership.

You can't bribe an Igbo person to be Igbo. Moreover, those costal Igbos stand to be royalty in an Igbo country, since they will control trade routes, than in an Ijaw country where they will be slaves to the overbearing Ijaw. Ikwerre knows all about them during their days in the Old Rivers State. Ijaw dealt with Ikwerre so bad that Ikwerre came and begged Igbos to epp their souls.

Bed bug nko? Those ones can stay up to 6 months without feeding.

Advocatejustice:
I'm also having the same issue with my fiancé since last year.

It can be so tiring and frustrating not to enjoy oneself sexulaly.

Raise her legs put am for your shoulders and enter from under there. Thank me later.

Anambra East and West local government areas

Anam, Nzam and nmiata communities are mostly igala and predominantly farmers.

Oga, my friend in the Uni is from Anam. There is nothing Igala about him. That guy is Igbo through and through.

Na just to blow that bridge up. Make we see where una go pass.

You mean by-pass bridge abi?

RobbStark:
How come the Ijaws in Ubani as you said were not sold as slaves then but ibos.
How can ibos in Ubani sell their own kinsmen as slaves then.

Truth of the matter is that you ibos can't lay claim to people who don't want you.
Your claim of them being ibos is neither here nor there.

Bonny Opobo and all other riverine settlements are Ijaws.

Like always your rants end here. No where e reach.

Why aren't you guys holding your normal meetings in those places.
Continue

Ijaw was non existent in Ubani back then. They were only dropped in these shores with the end of slave trade. There were slave ship Porters to the British and nothing more!

theInterpreter:
do you know that Badagry belonged to Fon before

Now it I controlled by Yoruba


All these your "history no carry weight

Bafagry is still controlled by Fon. I have been there and I have seen the people predominantly there, they do not seem like Yoruba people to me, although there are Yoruba look6people there as well.

slim75d:
bro you can not be fubara and be ibo. What does fubara mean in ibo in ijo fubara means luck the full word is ibifubara meaning goodluck all this names ive written u can search them on facebook
pepple is a distortion of perekule just as opobo is a distortion of opubo, and jaja is to jubo jubogha the whitemen couldn't pronounce those names so they change it to what they can pronounce

So because Jide" means "standup" in Yoruba, it cannot mean "Hold This" in Igbo? Oga, from all available accounts, Ijaw only came into the Niger-Delta courtesy of British ships from Ashanti. Ijaw is not indigenous to Niger-Delta. Deal with it. From trying to grab people's ancestral lands, Ijaw will end up fighting not to be thrown back into the ocean.

slim75d:
lets put it this way, ijaws re not claiming opobo we opobians re claiming ijaw. My name is tamunotonye does that mean anything in igbo?

Better find your way back to the British slave ship your forefathers were guarding that originally brought them to our shores. Do not take our hospitality for granted! Be warned!

DREagon:
This people speak igbo, better than some south easterners, considering the fact that they are surrounded by non igbo speakers

They are not surrounded by non Igbo speakers. The people around them are also Igbo speaking. We will get to all of them one after the other.

Nwodosis:
Why not on Monday? Monday would have been better so that we can sit at home and wait for him.

IPOB will do another sit at home on Thursday so that Bubu can experience the ghost town in person.

If not that Ogoni has paid their dues in Nationality struggle, Ijaws would have also claimed them as part of Ijaw. How these Ijaws positioned themselves as an "umbrella" Nation for every tribe in the Niger-Delta that is not Igbo is amusing. Same way you will look up North and call the large swaths of land there "Hausa land" without knowing there are hundreds of indigenous tribes absolutely unrelated to Hausa inside there.

You don check police station? Dem go soon parade am as UGM.

I’m a Nigerian from the east and I’m just curious to know if the money saved in the bank of Nigeria will be safe when (Maybe) Biafra get’s their freedom...

Convert your mom ey to dollars o. Siddon look afterwards.

oyatz:
You people need to grew-up sir,ethnic groups through out the world overlap into one another and their languages tend to form a spectrum.

Names that are shared by different ethnic groups belong to both ethnic groups e.g If an Igbo man is bearing Osakwe, it's an Igbo name but if an Edo man is bearing Osakwe, then it's an Edo name.

Funny thing, Edo people also bear Osakwe.

I am wondering what is going on now in her elder sister's marriage. If I be the elder sister's husband, I no go eat food again for that house.

See as the sharp man claim say him name na Boma, simply because he see one confirmed Kalabari person name from BBN.

I just showed my landlord this news and he said that I shouldn't worry about paying house rent in his house again.

He even added his daughter as an incentive..

Sonnobax15:

Well,the Binis have a very long and interesting heritage, raging from their different diversity down to their rich tradition....
As for me,I believe the bronze belongs to the Benin people....

The Problem here is that most of these bronzes were actually stolen from africa with the help of our own African brothers.....I don't think it should be a difficult thing for the Britons to return such artifacts back to where they rightfully belongs.

There was no help. Those guys plundered it after defeating the Benin Empire in just one week.

Reprisals attack loading.buhari will be angry with this

People that don't even build fences around their bungalow "family house" (to give them added security) or multi storey buildings (where they can see their attackers from afar), how will they organize their defense against a rampant okada riding fulani terrorists? Only one door separates you from the main road! There are no street gates, just one Major tarred road and the numerous apiam ways.

BKayy:
Let me get this straight, how did the Shell manage to take full control after Ndigbo lost the war?
Was there any military flying shells flag?
My dear the biggest fools are those from the so called oil producing places. Accept your defeat. Accept that your people are not smart at all.
Now you know that it wasn't Ndigbo that lost the war

The oil was already in the east controlled by Igbos, then a war to price the oil out of Igbos hands, and yet these less than smart humanoids won't understand who was fighting to hand it over to Shell. They can start by telling us who gave them war warpons freely and in abundance and what they had to pay for that.
