pazienza: They speak Igboid language.
Ekpeye is the most divergent of all Igbo dialects.
No Igbo person can truly understand Ekpeye at the first hearing.
Ekpeye retained too many proto Igbo words no Igbo group still use.
They also failed to develop the Nn and Mm sounds of modern Igbo language.
then it is not igboid but their language is old form of igbo
pazienza: Eleme people speak a dialect of Ogoni, but they wouldn't even accept they are Ogoni. They had denied their Khana, Tai and Gokana brothers just because they want to enjoy the benefits of hosting multinational corporations in their lands alone. They consider their more populated Khana, Gokana and Tai brothers as a threat. But somehow. You believe they would want to embrace Ndiigbo with over 30million population who they don't even share same language with?
The way you lots reason baffle me. I pray we dont have people that reason this way, pilot IGBO affairs, because we are definitely going to crash under their leadership.
this people are totally ridiculous.. Well they are learning from the igbo deniers. If Ikwerre. Ogba. And co can do it. Lol. They can do it.. Soon family members will turn into ethnic groups all in the name of oyel
pazienza: Notice that Okrika Youths are claiming stake in Onne (Eleme) seaport, not only because they claim part of the land it was built on belongs to them, but also because they reason they control the river access of the port to the sea coast. There is no Getting to Onne river port from the Atlantic Ocean, without passing through Ijaw(Okrika) controlled water ways. Same fate is suffered by any port in Ikwerreland. They are as landlocked as Ndiigbo are, and would have to fight for the right to access those Ijaw controlled rivers, like we might also have to do,if we habour hope of making Obuaku a reality.
There is absolutely nothing strategic, Ikwerreland would add to Igboland as it stands. They have crude oil, but not even as much as small Ogba who are said to having the highest onshore oil fields in Rivers state. Also, once Oil Rivers state happens, Ikwerre would lose the massive offshore derivation funds they currently enjoy, while the Ijaws who control the entire coastline of Rivers state would corner all of them.
Ph city, is also a city they share with Okrika Ijaws, and the City also incorporates part of Eleme (Ogoni). That city is a future war zone, as I don't see the Ijaws letting go.
When I see Igbos chanting Igweocha up and down, I just shake my head at the blatant display of ignorance. I belong to Ijaw forums and I know they call the city Obomotu or something like that. I wonder how people would be that naive to believe because they have a traditional name for a City, that automatically makes them stakeholders or owners of the city. This very sentiment baffles me, as it has no basis in rational reasoning.
lol. That's y we must keep away from ph city. Ijaw won't let go. Ijaw need more land and are very desperate and since they ave documents that proves that some part of okrika is in ph. Okwu agwugweee. We igbo should keep off settle with the ijaws for access to the sea and let ikwerre and ijaw settle it themselves
oilPUSSY: If we don't discuss them how can we know what is going on in that area? The thread really opened the eyes of many, and many people offline are not aware of things that are going on there until they start reading. Some of us used to love everbody from that axis but I think time has come for such love to be selective. We should start loving some of them on personal basis because of friendship and martial issues but not on general basis. We must keep making inquiries about them because igbo si na onye ajuju anaghi efu uzo. Onye amaghi ebe mmiri bidoro maba ya, ogaghi ama ebe okwusiri ya. The funny thing is that they are still bearing our names. What type of nonsense is that ?
ika na aju ajuju. Our mothers taught them igbo language.. And changed their bini diety into amadioha the god of thunder.most only that. Our mothers made them to build the biggest amadioha shrine in the whole of South east
pazienza: You can't negotiate with FG for Ogoniland, you can only negotiate with Ogonis for affiliation with Biafra. Obigbo is Igboland as it stands, so I don't know why you had to put it there. Ogonis are not all that friendly neighbors to Ndiigbo in Obigbo, they have been fighting Obigbo people for Obigbo lands, the crisis there was so high in the 1990s that Obigbo people had to invite their brothers in Ukwa East and West, Abia State for help , it wasn't until then was Obigbo lands kept free from land grabbing Ogonis, who initially thought that Obigbo was a lone Wolf they could overwhelm with their superior numbers in Rivers state. The constant squabble between Ogonis in Tai and Obigbo Igbos was the major reason Obigbo was carved out of old Tai LGA, and made an independent LGA of it's own.
The Ogonis are not necessarily a bad people, but personally, I'd rather not share a country with them. Already, the Eleme Ogonis who feel privileged and better positioned, because they host most of the multinational corporations in Ogoniland including the Onne seaport, are already separating themselves from Khana, Gokana and Tai Ogonis, they are saying Eleme is now an independent ethnic group. That's the kind of mindset they have over there. Ogoniland clean up is going to take billions of naira to execute , where will a young Biafra get such Money from to start cleaning Nigeria mess in Ogoniland? Knowing these people and their sense of entitlement and injustice, they would start shouting IGBO domination and marginalization, the moment we don't focus our resources on their area. Is it really worth the headache? I don't think so.
Maybe a better diplomatic Biafra team might still win them into joining us, as I personally don't fancy them, nor do I see them deciding to join us. But you have to give away the very idea of dividing and annexing people land without their consultation, it's a very wrong mindset. Your idea of discussing with FG for Ogoniland, as if Ogoni people are imbeciles with no group input or opinions on the matter, is repugnant and such mindset needs to die.
Having said that, I love and recognize your passion for Igbo nation well being.
Jisike.
Pazienza. Is thought onne seaport is in ikwerre land? So the land belongs to ogoni
HopeAtHand: I wish to state here and now that i can be on any thread i wish on NL, regardless of wether anyone or group considers my presence there necessary or not. I do what i want, when and how.
Now that i have established my position, i wish to state that the map of Biafra that has territories of unwilling ethnicities stupidly drawn into it wasn't drawn by me but IPOB and IPOB for all intents and purposes remains a property of the Igbos of SE Nigeria.
If Igbos do not want a greater resentment from minority SS groups from what we already have on ground, they should caution IPOB fr drawing inciting maps and should as a matter of cordial and peaceful coexistence limit all IPOB activities to their areas i.e the 5 SE states and Asaba/Aniocha areas of Delta.
The least Igbos can do now is to offend people they rather be courting, else some lessons might be taught. Lessons that would be hard to forget.
He that has an ear, let him hear. Thanks.
who is this one. Who wants relationship with people who will become a burden to igbo nation. God forbid. We don't need people who came not reason pass 65k monthly stipend
Prefola: RIGHT NOW, i'm just confused on what to do, whether to accept the adm, or to reject and sit for jamb again? or go for it and also sit for jamb? my parents aren't happy with it either,they're even suggesting that i leave the admission, and go for another remedial program at a university in the north cus i'm from the middle belt and the feel i'm being denied admission cos i'm not from the south east(note-this is my 2nd time of applying for admission@ unizik for the same course).
bros don't kill urself over Nnamdi azikiwe uni. They are stingy.... Please try futo. Research about futo and try. U can go for optometry there. Tanx
I was looking at these two maps and a thought struck me about the new biafran struggle.
I will suggest that if the biafran struggle ever gets serious, we can negotiate with gov on boundaries that work.
U see how close abia state is to the sea? Only 3 lgas in rivers state seperates abia from the deep sea.
We can negotiate with fg to gv us those 3 lgas which are Oyigbo, khana and opobo lgs. In return, we will for-go all igboland in SS. Including asaba and ph and every othet land outside se. That way, we wont be landlocked and we wont be taking strategic fg territories.
The people in those communities can be resettled like the bakassi pennisular case. Those who want to remain will be given authonomy within biafra. Recognising them as a minority group. They will have a share of sea port revenue with biafran govt.
Our oshimili and aniocha brothers in delta state can also declare that they must join us. Am sure fg and international community can and will respect that. The rest of delta igbo or rivers igboid can continue in nigeria with wat ever identity they choose.
As for oil, we can also negotiate to keep the current sharing formular for our 5 se states
lol. U don't understand the kind of resentment this people have. It is not jst hating.. They hate any thing progress as far as Igbo is concern. Do you think they will agree. Their mind ave been coded and programmed to hate Igbo.. River port is better
What pains me most about this country is dat they don't like good things. They don't want Nigeria to progress. Our leaders want us to remain in darkness and continue mumuishly voting for them. What is wrong in making South east good? Won't they generate more money for this country? What is wrong in building a river port in se or train stations over here since the ethnic group found in this area deal so much in trading which will generate traffick in Nigeria and that is more money for Nigeria. What kind of country is this. Oya allow the people to build river port for themselves without ur help. Mbanu.. They will constrict it with their evil policies and it will die a natural death. This country is seriously evil... Well y will they care.. Oyel plenty nah..
Bane2020: Honestly Igbos need to stop this political correctness Bullsh.it and drop the "Igbo bu ofu" mentality when dealing with this identity crisis afflicted clowns. For one those Ikwerres are completely irrelevant and have no real significance to the greater Igbo nation. All this idiots who extend the olive branch of us been one(case in point Ipob clowns that constantly embarrass us) need to stop...when you stop feeding them the attention they obviously don't get, they will get the message and be relegated to the minority status they already assume.
And this strictly extends to the opportunistic bas.tards like Amaechi and his likes that choose to be Igbo when they want to garner political favor, and then turn around the next day to spite us when our people in the spirit of love foolishly play the "big good brother" crap. Enough of the nonsense already.
don't mind them. They can't even lure oil companies into ph.. Cos of the toomuch demand..home of cultism. Militants.. Oil spillage. Brainwashed people who can't different their left from their right... Our oyel our oyel still there is no meaningful development over there. The Igbo they hate so much contribute a lot to rivers as a whole... While is wike building markets in Rivers. For who exactly? Oyel people?... Imagine if the ijaws or the ogoni takeover rivers state..... Afta all the marginalization and Ill treatment meted on them by the ikwerres.. We shall see what will be left of them..
globemoney: Until Ikwerre people apologize/return those abandoned properties, any attempt by misguided igbos to call them igbos will be a ruse. And that is why I didn’t take Nnamdi Kanu seriously when he started adding “igweocha” to his Ipob. We will never act like those abandoned properties never happened
they are the most lazy yoot that I ave seen. Hatred ave made them back ward.... Oyel oyel oyel. The bane of rivers state. 65 k monthly stipend
pazienza: Atiku or Buhari, Ikwerre remains a minority non Igbo group. And no Ikwerre-Ijaw Ph airport will serve Ndiigbo. We are a major voting bloc and will always get our demands met once well channelled. This site down and watch.
Nigeria has no option but to spend in Igboland.
don't mind the brain washed people from rivers . They are jelous of everything Ndiigbo do .they are been fed crumbs by their masters... They don't even have a pro ikwerre group whose aim is to build ikwerre or dish out ideas for the betterment of the soposed ikwerre land.. They rather channel their hate to igbo... When two or more ikwerre are gathered
. Ogogoro and igbo want to take our oyel is their discussion... Go to any Ikwerre group and see for urself..
Rotimi Amaechi knows what he is doing... That man is a cunny and should be feared... That is y he closed enugu airport on the name of refixing it... Gidgiddy hope u ave seen the soposed igbo man.
Xander85: If he's alive and in Isreal, then both the federal and Isreali gov'ts must have known about it! Have you stopped to ask how he managed to enter Isreal since the Buhari gov't seized his passport? You think MOSSAD wouldn't have known when he arrived Isreal?
The white commentator said that when the British came to the area called Nigeria, the igbos where the most backward tribe. When the they left, the Igbos where the most advanced tribe. The documentry was done in the heat of the war

FantasyHub: I owe u and Inyinyagbaoku some drinks cos of ur comments on this ikwere sh! t, ...LOL. Honestly, I don't understand many Igbos. I have not 4gotten how yorubas dealt with one during my nysc, and he ran to Igbos. I saw a thread where someone said that ikwere is more igbotic than the Nsukka people of Enugu State and he got massive likes, if only he knew how much ikwere despises Igbos. I always run away from people who can't detect an enemy and I don't know what to call a man who tries to please his enemy,''puler'' is cheap. The only Igbo cousin or brother I know is one who doesn't deny his Igboness. ikwere hates me as Igbo man, I hate them a million and one times too. It's an eye for an eye bo.
nwa nnem nwoke. Amakwa m udi ife bu ife a .... Please can you kowaciate more about how the guy run away to meet una after all the denial. What did they do to him that made him run back to u peeps?
horsepower101: You are right. If they can just key into major anchor investors especially our successful rich business men, it can get there even before eko atlantic.
I just hope it works out. For now I remain optimistic.
lol Broda. Ika na asu bekee. Ndi ochichi a a choro anyi ndu... Instead of them do it. They will see it as an avenue to loot and loot all in the name of Enyi mba city
pazienza: So because of local political differences,a full grown Igbo man that was well breastfed by an Igbowoman, would Now be kicking against Peter Obi VP candidature? Does this even make sense at all. Kedu udili mmadu putachalu ofuu, anyi nwejulu na Alaigbo these days?
If you say you are against Obi because you are an IPOB member who believes in election boycott in Igboland until Biafra is achieved, I would understand, even though I would not support you. But to say you would vote for anyone but Obi, mehn! That's messed up. Obi is repping Ndiigbo currently , if you have personal fight with him, learn to separate it from the current post he is holding.
Peter Obi bu nkeanyi kita. All hands must be on deck to take him to aso rock.
