Sowore has never been political. Plus the Ijaws understand the variations within them perfectly. South-Western Ijaws found in Ese Odo LG in Ondo State today, though Niger Deltan, don't necessarily see themselves as brothers with those in the South South. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they hate themselves. They are more clannish than the Igbos. Those in the South South see those in the South West as mixed blood, which is where the 'full born' gist of the OP emanated from.

Those in Edo don't necessarily see themselves as kindred with those in Delta, Rivers and even Bayelsa. Everyone faces their business and only see those around them.

Recall Dickson recently referred to a certain LG in Bayelsa as not being real Ijaws and they very well protested by voting against his candidate. That gives you an idea of the clannish nature of the Ijaw man.

In the case of Sowore and Jonathan, it was more of activism and angst than political.
Noted. But I still think he has been able to coast over some difficulties by identifying more with the south-west rather than the south-south

Plus I dont see how you can say that a presidential candidate has never been political. At least there are some games they play to influence the electorate. I have never for once seen him in distinguishing Ijaw attire or even that Fedora hat. Or Ondo Ijaws dont wear thathuh

4th largest group if u combine them with Efiks, Annangs and Oron to form AkwaCross.
That AkwaCross thing is purely academic. You people dont allow anybody to count you as one

Even Oron, Eket and Annang dont like being counted with Ibibio, as similar as they all are

How will they consolidate their political power and leverage it against more populous tribes when their bonds are so loose? This is the problem with the South-South

Babes I answered you,maybe you didn't get to read it. I'm not supporting the Lady cheating on her BF, I was also of the opinion that the OP should listen to her and hear what she has to say. And also I said the lady was trying to gain the OP's attention with her WhatsApp status.
And all I good was cursed and insults.
Good morning.
You did not.

You said that the lady was trying to get his attention, and I asked you, what rubbish attention that she cant get up from that nightclub and go and meet him in his house and tell him why a strange man is buying shoes for herhuh

You didnt answer, now at page 27 after so many things have happened youre quoting me from nowhere asking me where is my stand. Does it make sense to you?

Good morning dear

The truth is that until people stop manipulating census figures, we wont know who is how much in Nigeria.

The other factor is ethnic cohesion.

Do we count Ibibios and Efiks together?

Do Kalabari, Okrika and Izon see themselves as part of the main Ijaw collective?

Are Urhobo and Isoko interchangeable terms?

Most of those Niger Delta groups are too disparate to make a sizeable collective political impact.

As for me I was under the impression that the Ibibios were the 4th largest group in Nigeria...I stand to be corrected...

There is misconception about Sowore being Yoruba just because he is from Ondo State. It's so wrong. The Ijaw Apoi tribe is an interesting one as they are said to have traveled first to Ilé Ifè before getting to Ondo.
Are you sure he didnt purposely leave it ambiguous in order to avoid associations with Jonathan?

Politically, its safer for him to resemble Yoruba

the employer is unserious or she is probably a woman scared that the job seeker will come and take her shine in the office.
Jack Dorsey, the ceo of tweeter uses nose rings and styles his hair in an "unprofessional" manner yet he is still leading a giant company successfully. nigerians and their misplaced priorities
It depends. Twitter is twitter but a reputable law or consultancy firm that needs its clients to have confidence in its employees will always check your social media before hiring you.

Part of being hired by such firms is your good name and impulse control. The client needs to trust that you wont do something stupid

I am sure you didn't see this:

everything about the Ijaws is interrelated with water. “[b]Unlike in the north where they dance like antelopes, w[/b]e dance like fishes. Our dance steps are like the movements of the fish and the wagging of their tails in the waters, The Ijaw masquerades usually wear heads of the fishes. All our festivals have their origins from water. Our ways of life are influenced by our environment which is surrounded by water.”
Yes, I saw it. Care to expand on why you selected it?

Does it offend youhuh

The person was just comparing the difference between dance styles in different regions and their likeness to wildlife found within them. I actually found the description helpful in explaining why Bayelsa/Rivers have that particular way of dancing

The "antelope" comparison probably alluded to the way northerners canter and jump while dancing. It is a neutral statement and, considering the tone of the rest of the piece, was probably not deliberately written to offend.

Even if the person was trying to yab other tribes, that was peculiar to them and not necessarily political

So any time a Katsina person writes any cultural article, we should all be offended just because Buhari is finishing us or whathuh

This thread was started in 2011 at the height of the Ijaws' drunkeness on power. They quickly forgot that Jonathan's presidency then was a national mandate.

After his victory at the polls, they, along with their confederates, started ostracizing others and the presidency was subsumed as Ijaw/Igbo mandate.

Narratives like this by the OP were promoted all over the media to isolate themselves from fellow Niger-Deltans and eventually other well-meaning Nigerians.

It was thus easy for Jonathan to lose at the 2015 polls.

Students of Nigerian Political history should learn.
There is nothing even slightly political about the OP.

A culture piece detailing the customs and origins of Ijaw people cant be construed as a marker of arrogance, just because they had the presidency at the time it was written

The person did not mention any other tribe in her writing neither did she indicate any notion of superiority over them.

So they shouldnt write anything about themselves again just so as not to offend youhuh

It is past midnight. I am a patient person who explains very well and I have dropped proofs. Just take your time to click on the links and read the posts very well. Then, you will understand the whole gist. It is the reason I took time to explain and drop the links there. You will need to follow all the threads links too. Thenafter, you will understand it very well. And if you cannot go through the threads, well.....I pray you are not a victim very soon.

With the coolness you have mentioned, i am not ruling out kidnapping and money extortion as one of his income sources.
Okay, excuse me I didnt mean to sound unappreciative of all you typed.

I meant that I just needed a summary of events so that I would understand what is so dangerous about him. Im in the second link but its just another argument between you people again

Well its difficult to follow the whole gist but what youre basically saying is that he extorts money from people? I mean whats your problem with him and why are you so angry with him

I cant really get all the agricultural stuff right now...what did he actually do?

They are about to bully you. Serious case with a bad lawyer,with a good lawyer you dont have a case.
She is just trying to manipulate the situation, how can they report him to the police when he hasnt done anything? Did he tell her to go and drink poisonhuh

When I said that he should calmly disentangle himself from this girl you people were on my neck ...now look at it.

What effrontery, the dad even said he should tell it to the police lol. They want to start rubbish this December now

I checked you, and realised you were in one thread where I bashed one FakeAfriCoonAmerikana. I am just trying to get the reason this man mentioned you. Do you know him? Because this man who mentioned you even issued me direct death threat on this NL. And I have promised to get him and make sure he spends many years in kirikiri. And I am really working towárds it. I just want to knkw why this man mentioned you because he is alwsys mentioning mods and some agric names. But even the agric names he used to mention avoided him. I am just curious how well you know this person. His moniker is healthserve. So many evidences and traces that he is a scammer and he operates with many monikers.

Please, could you kindly explain why you think this potential kirikiri cell occupant mentioned you?
I have had interactions with him on other threads, like the one with the two-timing girlfriend. He seems cool to me; I noted that he had some issues with some monickers but I just put it down to ordinary trolling. He mentions me on threads that he finds interesting

Apart from that, I dont know. Maybe you could explain what the whole thing is about.
