Abagworo went gaga because he just learnt the Kalabaris along with the Okrikans, Ibanis (bonny & opubo), Andoni, Engenni, Abua, Nkoro, Bille and Odual people are all Ijaws. This is a very cruel way to learn new things for a person who'd been shouting "Igbos are majority" in Rivers State.

The Irony of it all is that the alleged "Igbos of Rivers state" all distant themselves from that numenclature because they know they don't have Igbo root/ancestry or Origin while the Riverine people gladly stict to their Ijaw identity while retaining their tribal names. We even have such tribal classification in Bayelsa like Nembe, Ogbia, Epie, Kolokuma/Opukuma, Sagbama etc

Learn child, it is never too late to learn!

otokx: If you want to be depressed, take a trip to Yenagoa

People go to Bayelsa and see good things and good experiences to talk about. It is only the Itsekiris like you that talk of hypertension and "depression" and are even scared to go there. Why is that? I've been looking for that Kpogede of a guy but I'm glad you're here to explain to us.

Abagworo: Amaechi has no direct issues with the President. (1) Patience met with Kalabari leaders and they decided to retract their earlier support for Amaechi. (2) Notice the Ijaw suffix added in that publication and understand the dimension it is heading. (3) It is fight for supremacy of tribe and Kalabaris just threw caution to the wind by adding Ijaw suffix to their name and claiming kinship to Bayelsa to swell their population. We'll soon see Okrika-Ijaw and Ibani-Ijaw. (4) What will it be like when we start seeing things like Ikwerre-Igbo, Etche-Igbo, Ogba-Igbo, Ekpeye-Igbo who will also claim kinship to 5 Igbo States? Won't it sound stupid?

Abagworo, what is wrong with you? What is your major disorder?

ogb5: If you want to know what is happening in Bayelsa and you see nothing in the news, why not take a trip to the creeks in bayelsa and see things for yourself.

IT is not the governor who pays the most praise singers that is actually the best governor. Do you know the number of best governor award Odili got while he was governor of rivers state? where are the structures odili left in Rivers state today?

Beyelsa is developing at their pace, If you can develop your state a a faster pace, good for you.

We will all be happy if we see the Yoruba man turning his cocoa into chocolate and exporting premium chocolate to the whole world.
Likewise if the Hausa man is able to keep his cows in a ranch, can his beef and sell Corned beef globally we will be happy for him.

So go to your state and prevent your state governors from looting your treasury instead of trying to prescribe medicine for others that you have not been able to take to cure the corruption going on in your state.

Words of the Wise.....God bless you my brother!

Who is Tam David-West even amonst the Kalabari people not to talk of the entire Niger Delta? Was he not one of those who Northern Slaves who sold out Ijaw people & Niger Deltans in the '70s. What has he contributed to the developement of ND? Rather he makes himself a ready political tool in the hands of his eternal master BUHARI to fight & destabilize ND. I don't know why we still tolerate such Cankerworms in the ND.

igbo boy: who are the ethnic igbos?
Igbo people dont have one history. I know for one my history as an oshimili man differs like garri and quaker oat to that of an owerri man.
Aro, Abiriba etc have history that points to cross river people
Onitsha and western igbos have history pointing to Benin.

So i dont get it when people try to insinuate as if igbos are one homogeneous group. We differ from language to history to certain cultural practices....

Interesting!
In other words, na community effort ( Osusu) from all over Nigeria make up Igbo land.

IGBO-SON:
Haba! Dis man, na wah for you oh! You're fuming and hot under the collar because of a lovely thread like this?......you, an Ijaw man?

Fumming hot? Are you sure you're not the one fummin hot? So you can imagine that I'd be fumming hot over a multi-challenged person magnifying his stupidity? I beg your pardon!

Listen asswipe!......you're not Ijaw gerrit? Your intense hatred for Ndigbo and anything that seems even remotely to unify the old Eastern Region blows your cover; and like a rotten corpse hidden with a handful of leaves and perfume to hide the horrid stench, one can smell your bigotry and hatred from mile off no matter how you try to disguise it!

You Igbos always enjoy fooling people with the rubbish you post on nairaland, Yet why is it that whenever someone challenge your stupidity, THE NEXT THING YOU ALWAYS DO is to run away and shout "intense hatred for ndigbo"! Hatred for Igbos! How can challenging a liar amount to hatred? Why is 'shouting hatred' always the next action Igbos take when presented with an intellectual challenge. Can't you engage on a simple debate without shouting hatred?

How come of all the Ijaws and other ethnicities that make up the old Eastern Region on this website, you're the only one that has a problem with this thread?

Well it seems they're all tired of your rubbish and as it happens, I'm the only one amongst them having enough spare time to kick your @ss.

It must have almost given you a heart attack to hear the touching tribute Rex Lawson gave to Ojuwku and Biafra. Go hang yourself with a strong rope if it worries you that much mate.

I'm sorry to disappoint you boy, I couldn't get the expected heart attack 'cos I've got a healthy heart unlike yours that's about to give up because someone is confronting your lies and Igbo propaganda.

Rex Lawson sang that song at gun point during the biafran invasion of Ijawland. At the time when the terror and attrocities of the Igbos was too much, people did everything they could to please the demonic biafrans.

Rex Lawson did a proper victory/tribute song to our Ijaw hero; Maj. Adaka Boro The GREAT after we drove you demons away from Ijawland. You should go and find out and listen to that song! Igbos couldn't even stand to give proper challenge, they all fled with the loots from our communities at the sight of Boro and his Ijaw Marines.

You pointed out nada! I stated a fact that inspite of our differences we were close and had a unity or purpose in the old Eastern Region until outsiders like your pathetic self came between us, and and this makes you furious? Just goes to show how immature you really are.

I stated earlier that Harcourt Whyte lived part of his life in present day Abia state, and as an Abonema man was perfectly at home with his Igbo cousins and even gifted the world these beautiful Igbo Christian songs .....and you highlighted this as showing i'm a bigot? You see what i mean when i say your hatred towards Ndigbo in 'unmaskable' and gives you away as one of those whose job it is to maintain divisions and acrimony among us?

I said you're a bloody liar and I'm gonna expose you.

Harcourt Whyte was taken to leper colony ran by the catholic church in Igboland at a young age because he had leprosy. After a long stay in Igbo land he got acquianted with the language and sang in the choir.

What has the travails of this poor man and the song of Rex Lawson at biafran gun point got to do with an imaginary "unity in the Eastern region"? You're just a narrow minded bigot who'd never admit to the tyranny & atrrocities of the Igbos

You've claimed peoples land forcefully now you want to claim relationship forcefully? "Igbo cousins" indeed! When did an Ijaw man become your cousin? Why do you people always behave like leeches? Always attaching yourselves to Ijaws. We always drive you away yet you're still come back with same tactics like goats. SMH.....Igbo people make una change, stop attaching.

You then latch on to the tired and worn out accusation of 'our oyel!....our oyel!....you Igbos want our oyel!'

Did I really say that or its just your subconscious blabbering?

Pray, which Igbo tyranny are you talking of? I do know as a majority in the old Eastern Region that Ndigbo could have done more to give the other ethnicities in the region a greater sense of belonging (and these would be issues that could have been addressed with time given our centuries old history together); but for crying out loud what actions of Ndigbo towards others in the region could be a basis for saying Ndigbo were tyrannical.....that the minorities of the region are free at last from bondage and are fully enjoying ALL their rights and resources in present day Nigeria. You want us to list side by side the 'sins' of Ndigbo towards the other ethnicities of the Niger Delta, so we can juxtapose it against the sins of Nigeria towards them?

It would really be nice to do such comparism because it would be like an Igbo alone attrocities against an Igbo-Plus- All-Nigerians attrocities. Hope you can imagine? Igbos are part of the Nigeria perpetuating injustice in the Niger Delta.

Ijaws have not started asking you to account for and apologize for your crimes, yet you've started denying....my friend go and read the half-baked Oputa panel report Vol.3.

The centuries of relationship you're talking about was when Igboland depended on Ijawland for their survival. We never dominated you, invaded you or ruled over your lands but you all depend on the peanuts we gave you from the SALES OF YOUR FELLOW IGBOS AS SLAVES TO YOUR IJAW MASTERS AT THE COAST. That was the natural state of our relationship; igbos depending on Ijaws for economic survival.

What i initially posted is solid reality that you can see and hear (and maybe enjoy ) not stories or heresay stuff, yet you still get mad at what is raw is historical fact!

Cheers.

There is nothing solid in that but all lies and propaganda. And as an Ijaw man it offends me when children of war criminals mischieviously try to play victims. We will never unite with you because we Ijaws had placed a curse on Igboland. You shall continue to be under us as you now are today in the current Nigerian reality. And even when Nigeria disintegrates, you shall continue to be at our mercy in a landlocked Igbo country.

olire: chai you have myopia. Am 80 percent sure u are from south south or south east. Are you askin wat crime alams commited? When were you born. Its people like you ribadu was talkin abt. Pls be objective. The war against corruption now is in the gallows.

Yoruba man stop beating around the bush like your hunter grand father. Tell us the crime Alamieyeseigha commited against Nigeria.

Is only a deluded person like you that could call such a public display of stupidity a "lovely thread".

I have pointed out certain aspects of your write up which portrays YOU as an Igbo bigot and a historically challenged person, yet you're still asking me what?

Why is it that its only Igbos that are lamenting the "El Dorado" of the Eastern Region why others are rejoicing and celebrating their freedom from Igbo Tyranny? The people you trampled on are all progressing in their respective states yet yours are still in decay despite receiving free oil money from federal allocation since 1970. Why is that? Could it be because you're all a bunch of greedy people who couldn't even coordinate your own development without people to leech on? You should be thankful for Rochas Okorocha who is transforming Imo state.

I'm waiting for you and your bunch of clowns.

IGBO-SON:
I just found out that Harcourt Whyte was Ijaw (from Abonema) , though he lived in present day Abia State for a substantial part of his life. Also there's this song during the Biafran war sang by another Ijaw as a moral booster to the Biafran soldiers at the time (someone please remind me of his name).

This goes to show the unity, peace and integration that existed among the different ethnicities of the old Eastern Region ..... then we allowed outsiders come into the family to cause strife, and the rest as they say is history. Nigeria (along the lines of Aburi) or Biafra (if it had succeeded) could have been great countries, rubbing shoulders with the very best in all fields.

This mans songs remind me of my childhood and bring a tear to my eye when i think of opportunities missed and what could have been.

May God deliver you from whatever that is wrong with you!

egift: Kings Of Deception. So it was the judiciary that made him pardon Alams, hangout with Nigeria's finest political criminals and militants?

Who is this bitter-hearted hater again? What crime did Alams commit against Nigeria? Who are the finest political criminals and militants he is hanging out with? If your brain can't properly process relevant information pls wash it with shampoo and if it is still spinning outta control after that, use a relaxer on it and go to sleep.

What wrath do they have that we've not seen before?
They have bombed and maimed us over the decades yet here we are challenging them to their very faces.

Maybe they have not realized that they have expended all the force of their wrath so far, and there is none we're not familiar with. But they don't know that they're yet to experience the wrath of the Ijaw and entire ND people.

Bring it ON!

0lumide: When Yar'Adua died, Northerners did not take up arms oo....

Nigeria which way..

Asari Dokubo has not built a borehole in his village yet he used the struggle of those people to earn billions....

Edumare ku suru oo...

I dey laugh ooo OBJ-to- Atiku style

It is a fact that most Nigerians are brain dead which is in line with the reason why most of them look but can't see not to talk of noticing FACTS.

What Asari is saying is plain an simple, N/delta can't comfront the "Nigerian Conspiracy" to milk ND dry now. But killing JEG might just give us the inspiration to cripple the oil industry to ground zero (emphasis on ground zero).

Then if we all choose to remain one nigeria, we'd all learn to practice TRUE FEDERALISM to the latter. All these 'One Nigeria' thing is just postponing the doomsday that is very certain.

But for now,
Good luck to everybody
Goodluck Nigeria!

Who are these Boko Haram people trying to fool?
Were they not the ones who started violence and senseless killings against christians all over the North and Borno in particular before the Yar'Adua government clamped down on them?
Why are they playing victim & 'oppressed people' when they are in fact the aggressors?

It is a pity that 'Modern Biafrans' have not gotten a single clue as to what transpired in the '60s. All they do is blame others for their woes, play the victim and blame Ijaw for betrayal. I dey laugh ooo! OBJ-to-Atiku style.

FRONT PAGE PLEASE!

It has come to my notice that Mr. Oluwuseun Osewa the "oga @ the top" of Nairaland and his moderators in the politics section are HIGHLY BIASED & TRIBALISTIC PEOPLE.

They tolerate name calling on other people who are not Yoruba (Seun's people), Igbo (Moderator' people) or Muslims. They rather uphold the "RULES" of nairaland on people who challenge the excesses of these same people.

I was forced to come up with this ID because my 'Ijaw citizen' ID was blocked by the autocratic dictatorship of Seun and his errand boys. I challenged them for the senseless name calling on the President (which we are all familiar with), the Ijaw people and all ND people and I retaliated by returning the favour. That the MODs in their 'wisdom' saw as an aberration of the 'NORMS' of this forum.

For those Nigerians who are familiar with the efforts of Mr. President towards the transformation of this country (much respect to 'Sincere Nigerian'), you would all agree with me that Mr. President is the most purpose-driven, most result oriented, most honest, most patroitic and THE BEST president Nigeria has ever had- after him, I believe God will bless us with more like him.

I therefore urge Seun and his MODs to stop tolerating name calling on the person of Mr. President and his people. Discourage the senseless criticism (destructive criticism) on Mr. President but encourage CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM which is the kind that civilized human being engage themselves on. In essence, don't encourage ill-informed and ignorant people to exhibit their stupidity on this forum but encourage civilty and professionalism.

Thank you.
