OredoPikin:
rigging tactics
oga river is PDP nd PDP is rivers
there is no other existing party there
APC is seen as a fulani party in the SS
even oshiomole as my gov despite the work he did in edo as gov, when it came to presidential election we all voted PDP both in 2015 and 2019

can u mention the year that wike have to so badly rigged election for PDP in rivers?
it was just an easy victory

Shikini:
Oga, I am also from South South - Dad (Rivers), Mum (Akwa Ibom), Wify (Cross River).

Where in South South are you from?
You may even be Yoruba posing as South South

Being 'vile' for political expediency is not restricted to any zone:

Buhari called for blood blood and his team threatened everybody including our own GEJ.

Amaechi was very 'vile' to GEJ

Asari Dokubo nko?

What about Nyesom Wike ... vile to Amaechi, vile to traditional rulers, vile to leaders of his own party, vile to any opposing voice. Are Amaechi, Asari and Wike not from South South?

So, between GEJ and Buhari who performed better since you now say the 2015 elections was based on capacity?

ba7man:
Now this is the real Unity begging.

You can hardly find a South South individual making such statements claiming alliance with the southeast.

Rather, it's the southeast folks that hide behind south south names to try to deceive people of the non existing unity.

computer0810:
Mention the community in SS that will join biafra 😂😂😂 there's no tribe that will prefer to be with ibos than yoruba's, u sef if u no be igbo and u r to chose where to stay through out ur life between ibos and yoruba's where u go chose?😂😂

Nobody will join ibos to become minority or osu😂 ibo land is landlocked without access to sea, hw will ur land survive, at d mercy of Nigeria

Isokiscool:

forgiveness:
Did anyone open this link? There's no correlation between what he wrote and what was written in the link. Dude is a fabricator of lies.

Raskimonojendor:
Chai. The guy don scam all of us for thread.

Odibembem:
Exactly, my point. I have often asked some Biafran agitators to initiate Biafra referendum from their various houses of assembly in d SE but they refuse claiming that referendum must include all d states of the South South, they know that no state in d South South will ever agree to such rubbish, forget there are some fringe hallucinating youths who subscribe to IPOB among our people. The SE don't just associate with d SS and claim we don't exist for nothing, it's with an aim to overun and overwhelm us in d event if d unthinkable and it's sad few among us don't get d drift though I know many here claiming they are SS and are happy to be subjugated by SE are not really from SS. The SE has ambitions which it can never achieve without d SS cos she is landlocked without access to sea and she lacks d resources and landmass required for a successful nation state. But d SS is not stupid, we will not allow d SE to achieve their ambitions on our backs, we carried Nigeria for so long, we would never carry SE on our backs as replacement. We are a free people, we are not sons and daughters of a lesser god. We are not inferior to any region, God forbid. We have gotten d presidency, we will get it again before d SE if they don't change this their arrogant and covetous attitude.

Odibembem:
U are wrong, SS and SE have never been one right from time. We in Midwest axis of Edo and Delta were with d Western Region till 1963, we were never with Eastern Region. CRivers, Akwa Ibom, Rivers and Bayelsa were only with Eastern Region when d Richards constitution divided Nigeria to regions in 1946, before then they were separate on their own. The SW after d creation of MidWest stopped making claims to MidWest, why is d SE still claiming SS? Intermarriage is not perculiar bw SS and SE, lots of intermarriage also bw SS and SW. If u want to be subsumed and subservient to d SE, that's your business but no true son of his father would allow his identity to be subsumed by another no matter how small maybe. In Delta d Itsekiris are very small in population but they would never subsume themselves under Urhobos or Ijaws or Yorubas who are close to them. Learn to stand and maintain your identity. There are Fulanis in NC and NE but u never hear NW claiming that NC and NE does not exist. It is sacrilege for a Berom man from Plateau or Tivi man from Benue to claim that cos they were all once in Northern Region, that they are same with NW and that NW should come and subsume their identity. Sacrilege!

“HURIWA is giving President Bola Ahmed Tinubu 72 working hours to order the arrest and investigation of Asari Dokubo over his suspected link to the violent phenomenon of unknown gunmen in the South-East or HURIWA will call our her members for a protest in Abuja next week over it.

This is LPG powered not CNG

delpee:
Interesting. Seems we're all linked together somehow.
Anyway the Olukumis in Delta/SE too were originally Yorubas. Olukumi means my friend in Yoruba. They're referred to as Lucumis in South America..Colombia, Cuba etc Those sold into slavery I believe.

OfoIgbo:
That is my point... Remember that I had already written that the Oba title originated in Nri, and it is still born today. People in Enugwu-ukwu must have heard of the late Oba Nwandu. In fact, a cousin of the current Eze Nri is known as Oba Agbalanze (Prince Emeka Onyesoh). The title has been in Igboland (Umu-Nri clan to be exact) 100s of years before the first Oba of Nri ancestry was installed in Benin, and the current nomenclature's OBA IWEKA.
Put simply, it was the Nris that introduced the oba title to Benin, by installing an Nri titled man as the first Oba. Now Iweka means ANGER IS GREAT presumably in the land that he was installed as the don.

Akalaka is reputed to be a Benin prince that established Ikwerre, Ekpeye. Akalaka means DESTINY in Igbo.

Ezechima is reputed to be a Benin prince that established Onitsha. So how come these Benin princes all seem to have Igbo names? Because the first oba was an Nri man and his early descendants were Igbo, and Igbo was the language spoken at the Oba's palace to start with.

Add all these to the findings of early Portuguese explorers, most probably led by Prince Henry the navigator, in which they saw Nri people in the Oba's palace, and a picture begins to develop

Raskimonojendor:
What sort of rubbish topic is this

morbeta:
An English friend of mine told me that an Igboman fron Onitsha in anambra state was a very famous Oba in Benin Kingdom. Pls confirm. I want to know how true that is.

Ogene001:
Benin kingdom = Benin city
This is different from Benin Empire which included other Edoid tribes, yorubas, igbos

Ogene001:
Benin sold yoruba slaves in staggering numbers. Owo was a mighty kingdom probably larger than Benin. But Oba Esigie defeated them after surrendering himself as a Portuguese stooge. He packed people from Owo like sand an sold to Portuguese who carried them off to plantions in Brazil. It was that period that Onitsha people fled towards the East and founded many towns in Delta State before crossing the Niger

Ogene001:
Yoruba that was defeated by Benin, Dahomey and Fulani? Na fake propaganda una de use whitewash unaself. Ijaw never ventured into Igbo hinterlands. They only took advantage of their coastal region to become slave Marchant and they sold all tribes coming from the interior through the Niger

AntiMarxist:
That's true

But unlike in your case, the slave trade in Lagos depended on war captives during the Yoruba civil war and that against the Muslim north.

Many northerners were also exported for sale but unlike what transpired in your dead end corner, there was no pretext for war. An Okoro going to the farm will be hijacked and sold by his own fellow brothers . Some were framed for crimes they never committed and sent to the long JuJu shrine from where they will be made to walk through the cave only to appear at the other end to meet a canoe convoy of Jewish slavers from where they will be transported via the Ebonyi river down to Calabar or Bonny.

You do know Ebonyi river was named after Ebony .

Ebony being black wood in Latin in what can best be described as how your Jewish slave masters saw their cargo - like stacks of blackwood in the hulls of their slave ships.

Pity.
