Well afonjas and other ignorant folks can see from this your post that only Portharcourt environs changed names from UMU to RUMU by the greedy lazy Ijaws in a bid to de-igbonize PH and steal it. all hinterland retain their original UMU such as the places you mentioned above

Such a senseless statement is Rumu now Ijaw language?

obaino860:
Afonja man claiming Ikwerre.....
let me ask you simple question....
My mum is an Ikwerre woman and she is from abali clam...
what clam are you from ikwerre

She is from Ngolo and esem clam....abeg go register for night class

Tflex01:
So if Oba of Benin is clamoring for the dualization of Benin-Akure or Benin-Ore road, we can assume Yorubas and Binis are up to something serious together right?

Dats ipob logic for you man, next thing it will be put on igberetv or naij.com

RickyTan:
Senseless post from a certified IGBO hater.
FYI much greater men with far more means than you have fought and hated on the IGBOS and yet we still here and have recovered from the war. We have bought up Lagos and Abuja from 20 pounds. Rebuilt our industries and WE THANK OUR GOD, CHUKWU OKIKE ABIAMA for HIS MANY BLESSINGS.

As for president, Buhari is President yet Emir Sanusi is complaining about hordes of northern beggars threatening the north. President Ojukwu is a bonafide legend. The missiles and weapons that he was producing in the 1960s, Nigeria cannot even produce today.

The long and short is that the Igbo nation is blessed and ALL you can do is hate.

Coward Ojukwu a legend? The man who ran away to the safety of ivory coast when the Nigerian army were killing Eboes, one day you will call Hitler a legend , now crawl back into your shell, I don't have time to waste telling you what you already know

SageTravels:
I will never die as a corp member

Amen oh

Ekiseme:
you dey madt ni?

If you can't sympathize or comment something reasonable,why bother?

But dat is just d plain truth, what will sympathetic comment do for the dead

RickyTan:
Obviously you are just repeating your self bc you have no argument
The Igbo nation is proud. Just Try us if you dare
No need for further time wasting with you

Look at the title of this thread and you will see that your chest beating is pointless, "try us if you dare" how old are u? 7? , if being igbo helped anybody, Ojukwu would have been president

Cc..self acclaimed slaves of Nigeria

RickyTan:
The millions upon millions of Igbos in Lagos state alone pass your entire tribe
When Igbos were producing president your papa neva own bicycle
Second there is nothing like attache. Igbo is Igbo.
From Igboakiri ( Igbanke) to Afikpo
From Igwuocha to Nsukka

Attache, from the tribe of 10 billion with the power 10 votes

RickyTan:
Mr NO TRIBE pls be quiet.
General Achuzie of Asaba - head of Ipob himself will fix you
Your entire tribe I m sure is not even 1 million and you here making noise
Greater Aba alone is more than 1 million and you here talking.
Oya we dey wait you now. COme

Lol, yet the people from the tribe of 10 billion are forming attache and can't produce president

Na dem kill d landlord and which one be igbo-goat?

Amarabae:
what do you mean by that statement? Can you explain.

Ask your ipob brothers

fratermathy:
I don't really care about this summit because it is not the first and won't be the last. So far, nothing has been done. South-South minorities like us never fail to realise that the Nigerian nation recognises only THREE ETHNIC GROUPS (IGBO, YORUBA, HAUSA)! The rest of us are like pawns and the nearest neighbour, being the Igbo, never fail to use us to their advantage, with sinister motives or not. I don't want to go into the politics of this forceful SS/SE union but I want to make some facts clear here as an Urhobo/Isoko, a Deltan and a SSner.

1. Obaino860 declared on this thread that SS is 90% Igbo and that all SS groups, including IJAW, speak Igbo and bear Igbo names. That is a blatant lie. It is lies like this that make us mistrust the Igbo motive in our affairs. In the SS, ONLY Delta North (Anioma) and Rivers (except Ijaw, Andoni and Ogoni) have connections with Igbo in any way. These people do not even make up to 20% of the entire SS region so where then have Obaino860 gotten this fact from? Urhobos/Isokos speak their own mutually intelligible languages that ARE IN NO WAY RELATED TO IGBO EVEN REMOTELY, Ijaws speak numerous mutually unintelligible languages that ARE IN NO WAY RELATED TO IGBO, Ogonis speak their own mutually unintelligible languages that ARE IN NO WAY RELATED TO IGBO, the Ibibiod ethnic cluster speak their own mutually intelligible languages that ARE IN NO WAY RELATED TO IGBO, Ekoi/Bette-Bendi/Ejagham and other Cross Riverian groups speak mutually unintelligible languages that ARE IN NO WAY RELATED TO IGBO, even some so-called Delta/Rivers Igboid groups, like Ukwuani, CLAIM to have their own languages!
On the issue of onomastics, the aforementioned groups, exceptions maintained, have no names that are similar to Igbo names. If there are any of such, it is pure happenstance and they definitely mean different things. Even culturally, the SS non-Igboid groups HAVE NOTHING in common with Igbo. This status quo is maintained politically and otherwise.

2. The SS/SE have every right to meet and talk about their future, just as the SS has same rights to do so with the SW, from whence many of the Edo/Delta groups politically evolved from. There is NOTHING special about this meeting. It is simply a political move engineered mostly by the SE, hence the Owerri location. The SS groups have different struggles from the SE. Although some of our struggles (such as true federalism) may overlap, we ultimately have different problems and aspirations. No matter how much we look at it, Igbo remains a MAJORITY ethnic group in Nigeria and thus, directly or indirectly, its people have joined the rest of the country to loot the SS region of its natural resources.

3. TippyTop, and many others, opined that the SS (especially the former Mid-Western Region) look up to the SE! This is another provocative lie to massage the Igbo ego. The former Mid-Western region comprises modern day Delta and Edo States and the people of these states, save for the 30% Anioma people in Delta and 1%(?) Ika in Edo, are IN NO WAY related to the SE politically, culturally or otherwise. In fact, I can assertively state that the South West and the North hold more influence in the SS (especially Edo/Delta States) than the SE does. This is especially true of our migratory patterns. Urhobos, for instance, NEVER migrate to the SE except something IMPORTANT takes them there. This contrasts greatly with the SW, where we have settled in large numbers. Same applies for Isoko, our sister tribe, and the pan-Edo groups. In fact, it is Igbos that settle in our areas.

4. The SE should start by getting its acts right and putting its house in order before extending whatever hands of friendship they want to. It also behoves the SSners to define THEIR FUTURE BY THEMSELVES!!! No group/region was appointed as our mouthpiece. In fact, no pan-SS group CAN EVER speak for the individual groups in the SS region. Each to his own tent. The only thing that binds us all together is the geopolitical term "South-South"! Consequently, the said summit that this thread informs us of is simply the device of a FEW people who have their own intents. As an Urhobo, I only pay allegiance to Urhobo Progress Union (UPU). Any other socio-political or economic group that claims to speak on behalf of my group is simply delusional!

5. On the issue of Biafra, which someone brought up, almost all the ethnic groups in the SS, including Urhobo (UPU), have made their stand clear on this. There is no need beating around the bush. Biafra is an IGBO ONLY affair and I support it wholeheartedly. Take your Igboid groups if they want but never extend your reach beyond your borders to drag actively or passively uninterested groups into it without proper consultations with the designated mouthpieces of these groups.


Finally, I stand for unity at all times. Nigeria, as a nation, needs unity. If this means that we have to extend hands of friendships to our closest neighbours, then we should. However, we must draw the line between unity and hegemony. When larger groups attempt to hegemonise smaller groups, caution must be applied. In Nigeria, political interest is all that matters. As it is now, the SS and SE have different political interests. Any act of unity is done simply by virtue of the NIGERIAN CAMARADERIE SPIRIT!!!!, NOTHING ELSE!!! So all those cogitating deeply on the said summit should stop reading meanings to things that are not there.


Semper Fi!!!


***If you quote me to spew bigoted bunkum, I will use your own medicine against you.

Don't mind dese ojuku children
The Niger delta is never going to be part of and oju kuru country, if we live Nigeria it will be on our own full stop

RickyTan:
Ipob is on their land and it includes Igwuocha, Asaba etc. If you think we will allow Hausa Fulani military boys to divide us with their fake geopolitical zones then you neva see anything

Hahahaha
Ghana must go part 2 loading

obaino860:
Afonjas should go and meet their Muslim brothers..... For your information, we the SS/SE are 100% Christian.

Ipob should go to erosion filled lands, attache

blues20:
So you are Okrika. No wonder. But why such animosity towards Igbos?

Partly due to statements like dis

If you say Igbo, that means the guy is a lunatics...
because the okrika I know speak Igbo as their local dialet.
That is the reason the wife of GEj speak Igbo fluently

Dedetwo:
The dude is very delusional at best. Only a fool does not understand the ploy behind the seizure and abandon property that happened only in Port Harcourt. I guess time has opened the eyes of certain folks in Rivers state including the Spiff who will die a loner.

Lol, @Spiff will die a loner, ndee iri how will you die

Dedetwo:
I do not give a ratass who you join or blow. The future will tell the narratives. Alfred Diete-Spiff is not a name to be mentioned anywhere in Igweocha and upland.

Pained Igbos everywhere, dey can't forget when dey left ph with ghana must go, part 2 is loading

There is no way a blogger will male heaven

I feel dere is a political reason why that road hasn't been fixed, its in a poor state

hammerF:
4 dat comment u deserve 24 lashes machette.

Wat kind of weed u smoke come dey type?

As 4 the Aro war, even different igbo clans fight amongst themselves. We need to enlighten each other to live peacefully side by side.

SS/SE are one, we are neighbours, if yorubas occupied that location in SS, we will do the same with them becos it is the progression of things.

Change is the only formula that is constant. Where u wan go sef? Where u dey go? U are with us, either dat or we kill ourselves everyday until u beg 4 peace .

What is all this gibberish?
Please dont quote me again, u seem drunk with ignorance

unstableaswater:
Really, u are now seeing double abi, well i just decided to contribute my own 2 cents. U can carry on ur re.tarded debate. Anuofia!

This man u are funny oh, hammerf/ unstableasigbo, im not debating with u, no one can debate with an illogical human being, you are the one who mentioned me...gud nyt & happy easter

unstableaswater:
We dont hate Ibibio people, we dont really have a border with them, they are our neighbour and we will continue to enjoy fruitful association.

Wat choice do dey have or you have, the other option is to open ur coconut head.

Guy reply with one account na , and were the Aro- ibibio wars part of this five-alive association, who is even "we" in this context, ur insults are like dat of a 3yr old, u 4 talk " see mosquito hand"

blues20:
I'm not against your NDR, but its a known fact that your region contains a significant numbers of Igboid group. Those group must be given the opportunity to decide their future. You cannot just annexed them to your dream republic, because FG gave you advantage by carving them into your region. And, it will make more sense if you restrict your chants to your ethnic group alone.

Who annex who, this is a case of kettle calling pot black, is it the Ijaws that told the ikas, ikwerres & their likes to deny u ppl, the fact is that this recognized ethnic nationalities would rather identify with the Niger Delta cause than any other identity, and who wouldn't considering who igbos were and who they are now.

hammerF:
Was Nnamdi wrong? I dont think so, onitsha people extend all the way to Edo. Educate urself boy, know ur history and who u are.

Everybody in Rivers today are mixed either directly or indirectly with the igbos. Hence Rivers is igbo.

Ipob logic, Rivers isn't Igbo and will never be, Arochukwu must be Ibibio through this logic where they speak & bear ibibio names and even worship ibibio deities they even call God Obasi( Abasi), don't even get me started on the Onitsha ppl sef, go and sleep abeg Mr man

frankzone:
Uziogwe ain't Igbo or any language at all

Just google am, it fit be dialectal difference

Ekinematics:
Do not allow your anger or hatred becloud your reasoning. How can Ogbogoro that's in Obio/Akpor be part of Abayelsa when there are Ijoid or proto ijaw places close by?
Are you sure you are thinking well or just spilling hateful fallacy here.


A Riverian won't possess this level of hate to his/her fellow Riverian. Be it Ijoid, Igboid or Ogoni.

Na ipob igbos be this, don't be deceived

hammerF:
Dont run ur mouth, u know better. Asari long told u that he is an Igbo man.

Amaechi told u that he is an igbo man.

Peterside Dakuku long told u that he is an Igbo man.

Wen we are ready to rain u in, we will do so and u will do as u are told. U no get mouth here.

All three people you mentioned are politicians
And peterside never said that it was your fake news site igberetv.com that carried that news, propaganda only works on illiterate minds, I remember Nnamdi Azikiwe said he was an Edo man

hammerF:
They have already declared it capital of IPOB, heaven has not fall. U go and try any rubbish and see wat happens. hissssss!

If u like declare am as capital of Cameroon, it doesn't mean shxt in the real world, what has actually happened in the real world is Igbos leaving ph with ghana must go, wake up from your delusions,

Funlordmaniac:
I do not know him personally but Was he also arrested like this convicted thief was? Was he locked up for years in europe like this criminal that has stock piled you and your states future in his personal bank accounts as well as those of his mistresses? Was he also deported after bringing shame to his own people through his actions? Kindly answer without going off point again?

Are you saying tinubu is not a theif, do u think u will make heaven with such a comment

frankzone:
It's actually Uzoigwe. (Road to heaven) not uziogwe, no follow copy copy bloggers that copied bellanaija that made the same mistake

If you google the name u will see that other people bear it, weda Uzoigwe or uziogwe na still igbo

blues20:
Going by your name, I can deduct that you'r from Ijaw, proberbly Kalabari, Bile or Okrika, but why are you always jumping on every Biafran thread even when its not necessary? You hardly comment without raining down insult on the movement. Are you up to something

I am insulting your movement guy, I only speak wen my Niger delta is involved because these piriamapu are up to something

hammerF:
Rivers is not Niger-Delta, just a few parts of it mainly around the coast. The bulk of Rives is Igbo. Then u have the Ijaws mixed with Igbos.

Hence ur argument is flawed. One Ijaw man, Adaka Boro cannot decide for all the tribes in the South East OR SS/SE. Igbo, Ibibio, Efik, Ejagham etc.

We will leave Nigeria as we came, which is together, SS/SE.

See dis one you think u are talking to an Yoruba man, Which Rivers state is igbo, so is ur useless nnamdi dat will decide for us, piri obori, just try any rubbish in ph, u will liv with Ghana must go like b4
