ASABA- Ijaw Agenda for Governorship 2023, DIA-G23, an Ijaw sociocultural pressure group, has urged the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Delta State, to select Senator James Manager as its 2023 governorship standard-bearer, saying Ijaw ethnic nationality in Delta South senatorial district cannot wait until 2031 to govern the state. 

The group in a communique by the director general, Felix Okpe, after a meeting in Warri, said: “We (Ijaw) cannot wait till 2031 to produce a governor from Delta -Ijaw extraction, rather 2023 is the set time for us to produce Senator James Ebiowou. Manager, the first PDP state chairman, who has paid his dues by installing all the previous governors in the state.”

 “The leaders and stakeholders of PDP should forget about zoning governorship in 2023 to allow peace to reign in the party because there is nothing like zoning since the inception of the party in 1999. Our stand is that the party should vehemently support Senator Manager to emerge as governorship flag- bearer.

“The party should not prevent Senator Manager, the consensus candidate of Delta- Ijaw extraction because we cannot take this political marginalization and oppression any longer.

“The political leaders from Delta Central should not be selfish, but be considerate for the sake of equity and fair play to allow Delta- Ijaws to produce the next governor of Delta state because Delta state belongs to all of us as they have constantly denied Delta- Ijaws the number one seat of the state since 1991,” the group stated.

Maintaining that Senator Manager was unstoppable, DIA said the group mulled over last Friday’s caucus meeting of the party, “where former governors, Chief James Ibori, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, incumbent governor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, deputy governor , Barr Kingsley Otuaro, Senator Manager and other party leaders  on the said gentleman zoning arrangement.”

It said media report indicated that “Senator Manager, Barr Otuaro, both governorship aspirants from Ijaw extraction and former state PDP chairman, Chief Edwin Uzor, opposed the zoning arrangement because since inception of the party, there was nothing like zoning, therefore, 2023 cannot be exception.”

IPOB members enforcing Sit at home Destroying Wares of Market Women



At least two suspected armed robbers, who were enforcing sit-at-home order of the Indigenous People of Biafra, were set ablaze by irate mob in Onitsha, Anambra State, NjenjeMediaNews reports.

The alleged robbers were burnt to death at MCC Junction, beside Conoil Filling Station, along Enugu/Onitsha highway on Wednesday.


Reports made available to NjenjeMediaNews revealed that the suspects came on a motorcycle, allegedly robbed some residents at Awada of undisclosed amount of money, phones and other valuables and shot sporadically in the air to scare people before escaping.

However, they were given a hot chase and were nabbed after the MCC Junction.

It was gathered that the mob immediately placed the motorcycle on top of the suspected armed robbers and set them on fire.

Many Igbos have been calling for the total disregard to the constant sit-at-home which they is hurting the region and makes the people uncomfortable.

TROOPS DISLODGE IPOB/ESN STRONGHOLD AT LILU FOREST IN ANAMBRA STATE

Troops of the Nigerian Army(NA) in a joint operations conducted with other security agencies have dislodged a notorious stronghold of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra ( IPOB) and its armed affiliate, Eastern Security Network (ESN) at Lilu Forest in Ihiala Local Government Area of Anambra State. Lilu is a border town between Imo and Anambra States, which was hitherto known to be used as an operational base of the dissidents.

The operations, which was conducted in the early hours of Monday 17 January 2022, led to the neutralization of some gunmen in a fire fight that ensued. After dislodging the dissidents from their fortress, the dogged troops recovered 10 Pump Action Shotguns, two locally fabricated guns, One Revolver pistol, rounds of 7.62 mm special, live cartridges, machettes and IPOB flags.

Other items recovered are mobile phones, laptops amongst other dangerous weapons. The operation was jointly conducted by troops of 82 Division, Nigerian Navy, 211 Quick Response Group of the Nigerian Air Force, Department of State Services and the Nigeria Police. It was a well coordinated dawn attack on the fortress, where plans were been perfected to violently enforce the illegitimate sit-at-home declaration by the irredentist groups.

A 65-year-old man has been beheaded in Ubudom Atta in the Njaba Local Government Area of Imo State.

After beheading the man identified as Nnoruoka Onyeokwu, his head was displayed at the primary school in the community.

Njaba has been witnessing spates of violence and killings since last year.

Our correspondent gathered that the victim was attacked in his house at the night and the villagers woke up the next day to see his severed head dangling on a tree within the school premises.

The Public Relations Officer of the police in the state, Mike Abattam, could not be reached for comment.

The traditional ruler of the community, Edwin Azike, was, on December 8, 2021, abducted and his corpse dumped at the market square the next day.

This was after some gunmen had also attacked and burnt a police division headquarters, Magistrate’s court and a health centre in the community in June.

Years of listening to Radio Biafra by Nnamdi Kanu has made one peaceful people to be bitter and full of hate. No one progresses with hatred rather you stagnates. No matter how bandits ravages the north people move about freely

Today Schools in SE are closed, academic calendar always disrupted and above all education becoming less attractive because Nnamdi Kanu promised them Biafra.

Watching video of ESN you will even see children of less than 12 years carrying guns.

They have abandoned Education and Skill for full blown Terrorism. Most of the children are even tired of going to school after sitting at home.

Some will from there converge back to their ESN meeting. IPOB is doing great damage to the young generation.

Most parents are no longer comfortable but who to complain to because they might be executed by IPOB if they speak.

Ebonyi people marginalised by Igbos, we’ll never be part of Biafra: Gov. Umahi.



Ebonyi State will never be part of Biafra due to the marginalisation and slavery its people has suffered in the hands of other Igbos, says Governor Dave Umahi.

“Ebonyi will never be part of Biafra because of the marginalisation and slavery that Ebonyi people had been subjected to over the years by their South East brothers” Mr Umahi said on Wednesday.

Agitations for the sovereign state of Biafra, led by secessionist group Indigenous People of Biafra has been rife in recent years. Mr Umahi has never hidden his opposition to IPOB agitations.

The governor was reacting angrily to allegations that Ebonyi indigenes were responsible for the fatal attacks that is ravaging Anambra State.

He described the allegation as false, adding, “if any Ebonyi person is caught in killing, that person should be killed too.”

According to him, the killings in Anambra are political killings that have no link with Ebonyi people.

He said criminals who were from other states in the South-East zone had been arrested for the killings and other heinous crimes in Ebonyi State, without announcing their states of origin.

The governor, who is the chairman of the South-East Governors’ Forum, wondered why other people derive joy in tarnishing the image of Ebonyi people.


Anambra State is literally under siege as unknown gunmen have upped their attacks around the state ahead of the governorship election scheduled for November 6.

Many residents, including prominent physician Chike Akunyili have been murdered in the past few weeks. Government and private assets such as police, SSS and INEC offices have also come under arsonists’ attacks.

Attorney General Abubarkar Malami on Wednesday threatened that a state of emergency might be imposed if the attacks do not cease.

He said the Buhari regime has the responsibility to ensure elections hold and also protect lives and properties.

Buhari to Wife of Chuba Okadigbo- Your Husband is a Good Man

Why I think Reno is Right


The Yoruba kingdoms of Benin and Ife sprang up between the 11th and 12th centuries. The present-day Benin monarch declared his ancestry from Oranmiyan through Ekaladerhan and direct to the Ogiso dynasty. The statement made by the Ooni of Ife debunked the Oba of Benin's declaration of the ancestry of Benin Kings, insisting that Benin was one of the kingdoms founded by Oduduwa who descended from heaven to Ile-Ife with four hundred deities.

The Ooni of Ife, Adeyeye Ogunwusi, on 10 February 2016 said Benin Kingdom in Edo State remained part of the expansive Yoruba people, a pronouncement that may spark fresh rivalry and altercation between people of the two ancient kingdoms. The monarch made the comment in reaction to a statement credited to the palace of the Oba of Benin challenging the claim by the Alake of Egbaland, Adedotun Gbadebo, that the Ooni of Ife remained the pre-eminent spiritual leader in Yorubaland and environs.

Oba Gbadebo said Oba Ogunwusi was number one of the five principal Obas in Yorubaland, followed by the Alaafin of Oyo, then by the Oba of Benin (in third position), the Alake of Egbaland (fourth) and the Awujale of Ijebuland (fifth). But in a swift reaction, the Esogban of Benin and Odionwere of the Kingdom, David Edebiri, rejected the ranking, saying the Ooni of Ife was a son of the Oba of Benin and that the Oba of Benin stool had no relationship with the Yoruba people.

As far as historical memory extends, the Yoruba have been the dominant group on the west bank of the Niger. Of mixed origin, they were the product of the assimilation of periodic waves of migrants who evolved a common language and culture. The Yoruba were organized in patrilineal descent groups that occupied village communities and subsisted on agriculture, but from about the eleventh century A.D., adjacent village compounds, called He, began to coalesce into a number of territorial city-states in which loyalties to the clan became subordinate to allegiance to a dynastic chieftain.


This transition produced an urbanized political and social environment that was accompanied by a high level of artistic achievement, particularly in terra-cotta and ivory sculpture and in the sophisticated metal casting produced at Ife. The brass and bronze used by Yoruba artisans was a significant item of trade, made from copper, tin, and zinc imported either from North Africa or from mines in the Sahara and northern Nigeria.

The Yoruba placated a pantheon headed by an impersonal deity, Olorun, and included lesser deities, some of them formerly mortal, who performed a variety of cosmic and practical tasks. One of them, Oduduwa, was regarded as the creator of the earth and the ancestor of the Yoruba kings. According to a creation myth, Oduduwa founded the city of Ife and dispatched his sons to establish other cities, where they reigned as priest-kings and presided over cult rituals. Formal traditions of this sort have been interpreted as poetic illustrations of the historical process by which Ife's ruling dynasty extended its authority over Yorubaland. The stories were attempts to legitimize the Yoruba monarchies—after they had supplanted clan loyalties—by claiming divine origin.

Ife was the center of as many as 400 religious cults whose traditions were manipulated to political advantage by the oni (king) in the days of the kingdom's greatness. Ife also lay at the center of a trading network with the north. The oni supported his court with tolls levied on trade, tribute exacted from dependencies, and tithes due him as a religious leader. One of Ife's greatest legacies to modern Nigeria is its beautiful sculpture associated with this tradition.

The oni was chosen on a rotating basis from one of several branches of the ruling dynasty, which was composed of a clan with several thousand members. Once elected, he went into seclusion in the palace compound and was not seen again by his people. Below the oni in the state hierarchy were palace officials, town chiefs, and the rulers of outlying dependencies. The palace officials were spokesmen for the oni and the rulers of dependencies who had their own subordinate officials. All offices, even that of the oni, were elective and depended on broad support within the community. Each official was chosen from among the eligible clan members who had hereditary right to the office. Members of the royal dynasty often were assigned to govern dependencies, while the sons of palace officials assumed lesser roles as functionaries, bodyguards to the oni, and judges.

During the fifteenth century, Oyo and Benin surpassed Ife as political and economic powers, although Ife preserved its status as a religious center even after its decline. Respect for the priestly functions of the oni of Ife and recognition of the common tradition of origin were crucial factors in the evolution of Yoruba ethnicity. The oni of Ife was recognized as the senior political official not only among the Yoruba but also at Benin, and he invested Benin's rulers with the symbols of temporal power.

The Ife model of government was adapted at Oyo, where a member of its ruling dynasty consolidated several smaller city-states under his control. A council of state, the Oyo Mesi, eventually assumed responsibility for naming the alafin (king) from candidates proposed from the ruling dynasty and acted as a check on his authority. Oyo developed as a constitutional monarchy; actual government was in the hands of the basorun (prime minister), who presided over the Oyo Mesi. The city was situated 170 kilometers north of Ife and about 100 kilometers north of present-day Oyo.

Unlike the forest-bound Yoruba kingdoms, Oyo was in the savanna and drew its military strength from its cavalry forces, which established hegemony over the adjacent Nupe and the Borgu kingdoms and thereby developed trade routes farther to the north.

Benin was already a well-established agricultural community in the Edo-speaking area, east of Ife, when it became a dependency of Ife at the beginning of the fourteenth century. By the fifteenth century, it took an independent course and became a major trading power in its own right, blocking Ife's access to the coastal ports as Oyo had cut off the mother city from the savanna. Political power and religious authority resided in the oba (king), who according to tradition was descended from the Ife dynasty. The oba was advised by a council of six hereditary chiefs, who also nominated his successor.

The city of Benin, which may have housed 100,000 inhabitants at its height, spread over twenty-five square kilometers that were enclosed by three concentric rings of earthworks. Responsibility for administering the urban complex lay with sixty trade guilds, each with its own quarter, whose membership cut across clan affiliations and owed its loyalty directly to the oba. At his wooden, steepled palace, the oba presided over a large court richly adorned with brass, bronze, and ivory objects. Like Ife and the other Yoruba states, Benin, too, is famous for its sculpture.



Unlike the Yoruba kingdoms, however, Benin developed a centralized regime to oversee the administration of its expanding territories. By the late fifteenth century, Benin was in contact with Portugal. At its apogee in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, Benin even encompassed parts of southeastern Yorubaland and the small Igbo area on the western bank of the Niger. Dependencies were governed by members of the royal family, who were assigned several towns or villages scattered throughout the realm rather than a block of territory that could be used as a base for revolt against the oba.

Yorubaland about the year 1700 was under one King, or Alafin, who resided at Old Oyo1 or Katunga. That this kingdom when united was a very powerful one is shown from the fact that until the year 1818 the Dahomi paid tribute to the Alafin of Oyo. It is only from this date (1700), when the decadence of the Yoruba Kingdom had set in, that the native chroniclers can give any definite knowledge of the Yoruba history.

Lagos became a great slaving port about the year 1815 when the King of Benin and a few other chiefs refused to allow slaves to be exported from their territories. The original inhabitants of Lagos were a mixture of Bini and Yoruba people. When it became a port of export for slaves, such slaves as became residents as labourers and servants of the slave dealers and merchants added their quota to the population; and when after 1861 it became a British colony many freed slaves from Sierra Leone and other parts, more especially Brazil, made their homes there.

Between 1833 and 1835 the Mohammedans captured and destroyed the old town of Old Oyo, and the Yoruba were obliged to found a new capital where Oyo now stands. It was about this time also that the Egba declared their independence. They were finally driven out of the country that they, as a section of the Yoruba people, occupied, and in 1838 they founded their capital, Abeokuta. By the year 1840 the seeds of dissension sown by Afonja had spread so rapidly that the proud Kingdom of the Yoruba people split up into a number of so-called independent states. Illorin had been lost to the Alafin, and was inhabited by a mixture of Hausa, Fulah, and Yoruba .

Ibadan, a semi-independent state, still recognises the Alafin and paid tribute yearly. The Egba, agriculturists, declared that they were quite independent, as also do the Ijebu, Ilesha, Ife, and Iketu (then in French territory). From 1840 to 1886, when the British Government intervened as peace-maker, wars between these parts of the Yoruba people were constant. From that date until 1892 the peace-maker had to punish the Ijebu and Egba for closing their trade roads. In August 1861 Docemo ceded Lagos to the British. In 1863 Kosoko ceded Palma and Lekki, much to the disgust of the chief of Epe, who refused to cede his rights and was punished for it. And in the same year the chiefs of Badagry ceded their territory to the British.

Why Bini and Yorubas are one, the connection between them -Reno Omokri.


I have been to the modern nation of Ethiopia 14 times. None of these names correspond to their ancient languages (Ge’ez, Tigrinya or Amharic).

But if you look at these names, they correspond almost word for word, and alphabet for alphabet to Edekiri (the real name of the language wrongly called Yoruba) language, because Iye means mother in Bini (Benin), which is an Edekiri language, and Iya means mother in Yoruba (another Edekiri language).

Now, go back to the names of the wives of mothers of the Pharaohs I listed above. They either end with Iye, or Iya, or Uya.


Now, look at these names Akhenatan, Smenkhare, Amun. If you are Bini (I am not Bini, but I have studied Bini culture) they will be very familiar to you.

In fact, till today, there are modern-day Bini names that correspond in pronunciation, meaning and etymology to these names, including Amun (often used as a hyphenated name, such as Giwa-Amun, etc).

Look at the name Smenkhare. It corresponds with many Bini names such as Nehikhare, or Nosakhare.


Even take the name of the Pharaoh Akhenaten, it corresponds to many Bini names, including Akenzua, the grandfather of the present Oba of Benin. In fact, the word Akhenatan is still in use in Bini language today. Akhe no ton in Edo (Bini) language means ‘Hot Pot’, and Archaeologists and Egyptologists say Akhenatan means hot for Aten, or effective for Aten. You connect the dots.

Many Black Africans would be surprised to learn that the Oba of Benin actually had a full-scale pyramid in his palace before it was destroyed by the British, during their invasion of the Benin empire in 1897. Why would the British destroy a pyramid? What quarrel did they have with it? I do not know. I can only theorise that they did it because it upset their version of history with regards to the ancient Egyptian pyramids.

This practice of casting lots, is a very ancient and still common practice amongst the Jebu or Ijebu people of Nigeria, and the Bini people specifically, and amongst the descendants of Oduduwa.

Just as the Jewish priests use beaded jewels known as Urim and Thumim, so do the Jebu or Ijebu, the Bini and the Omo Oduduwa use beads for their divination.
