Port Harcourt City I know...

"igweocha" I don't know...

Get the normenclature right before I debate this subject with you.

good. Next time dont argue what you know nothing about. IPOB said they are coming to Igweocha. Wait when they change nomencleture you can open your senseless thread.

MyPWisINCORRECT:
How can a tribe and her people be this troublesome?

You left Abakaliki, left Enugu, left Awka, left Owerri and left Umuahia to Port Harcourt to protest.

I pray the military should deal ruthlessly with whomsoever chooses to be a scape goat.

What makes the Igbos think that in the eventual breakup of Nigeria, Port Harcourt and her people will join the Igbos rather than champion her own Niger Delta Republic?

A good student of history should know that the Niger Deltans will always seek their emancipation just like Isaac Jasper Adaka Boro declared the Niger Delta Republic shortly after Dim Ojukwu declared Biafra Republic in '67.

Today is even more unique as there are many warlords scattered around the SS who will want to champion this cause...when jungle mature.

see who is talking of history. What do you know about Niger Delta? Was Igweocha originally part of the proposed rivers state?

Was Igweocha part of adaka boro's niger delta republic?
Mr man make your research before you talk of history.

Captain6:
When we realize that this country is ours, and every attempts to bring it down affects everyone,things will get better. I advise the militants to drop their weapons for the sake of the poor masses whom they claim to be fighting for,YOU ARE STARVING US!!!

you can only realize what is fact and the statement in bold is certainly a no fact.

Afang and Edikang Ikong Soup are delicacies owned by Akwa Ibom and Cross River, just as the Banga soup is native to Deltans. The perverted version called 'Ofaku' is what the Igbos prepare. We would say they are 'borrowed' soups to the Igbos.

Almost every soup out there is nutritional. Picking these few foods/soups is not enough.

one can easily notice your inferiority from your post. Igbos have been eating ofe akwu centuries before banga ever became a cocortion. Most good soups you see including egusi are all originally Igbo soup.

banga ko fireworks ni

At the UN, all the none align nations including Nigeria agreed to vote for palestine just for President Goodluck Jonathan at the 11th hour received a phone call from Prime minister Nathanyahu who pressured GEJ to change nigerias vote to NO. The whole None align countries including south Africa were disappointed with Nigerias treacherous change. What did GEJ get in return? Nothing but a trip to Jerusalem. What a whimp of a leader. At least Buhari got 40 billion dollars worth of investment including a modern standard Guage line that will pass through your villages. Mumus

buhari got already? Really?

Eastwalk:
Talking about delta you have numerous cities Warri and Asaba the major,imo Owerri,Orlu and other,Ogun Arepo agbara,ijebu ode,Ota,While Enugu state is all about Enugu city

most of the places you listed are one city states except lagos anambra and delta
therefore mentioning akwaibom, imo and even oyo (lol) without enugu makes your list a huge joke

Biafra

Hehehe...Biafran fever

nonjebose:
That is the problem with these guys. They sit down lazily with their computer and phones to type nonsense conspiracy theories. Page one of this thread is a testimony to this. All manners of concocted allegations over the place. The guy is always seen to be on the side of either PDP or APC, depending on the nature of his write up.

continue decieving yourself. Everyone knows tinubu is the guys atm and paymaster. Once you fall out with tinubu he uses saharareporters to demonize you.

He wants to repeat that on buhari who now has problem with his paymaster tinubu.

As we know, not everyone is tolerant and mature. He is now being given a dose of his rascality and there is nothing he can do, having exchanged his integrity for brown envelop.

Tinubu's mouthpiece silenced

Frustration

He is coming or they invited him? Different cases

Ugomba:
my name is ugomba, an indigene of Ogwashi ukwu,Aniocha. am a proud Delta Igbo.
I want to talk about Biafra, many of our anioma fathers fought in the war, but the focus now is on the METHODOLOGY OF NNAMDI KANU.
1) why must the ijaws,ogoni,urhobo ,itsekirietc be included in biafra map when its obvious that they are not interested?they will betray Igbos again if war breaks out.
2) during regionalism, urhobos,isoko,itsekiri were under midwest and not eastern nigeria, so when did their land become biafra territory?
3) why do you insist on refrendum on the land of people who never asked for one. eg ijaws, ogoni etc?
4) Midwest was formerly under western Nigrmeria YET I dont see yorubas including urhobos,isokoetc in anything oduduwa..
5) why are the Ipobs making the igbos look like a desperate tribe? can't we agitate without including South south minority tribes?
6) why do you ipobs insult anyone with a contraditing view to your agitation?
7) even if Nigeria breaks today, why not a nation for the Igbos only.kh
that Asari dokubo is supporting biafra does not mean that the ijaws want Biafra. stop living in delusion.

I can go on and on. Nnamdi kanu methods has many flaws in it.
We are not a desperate tribe,IPOBS Leave the South South minorities alone!
thanks

i share your sentiments. However you goofed by saying it's obvious they dont want Biafra.

For me i prefer an Igbo only Biafra but how do you know what the south south minorities want?

Historically they have been confused and helpless. Some of their so called leader exploit their confusion to their own advantage. People like edwin clark mobilize militants when he needs to and uses same Ijaw to fight Igbos when he needs to and even fights his fellow ss minority groups. They lack genuine and inteligent leader. Both sarowiwa and adaka boro fought alongside their opressors and ended up getting killed by same.

Ss minorities are helpless, they realy want to be free but since they cant get freedom they must prophess hate to Igbos and biafra in order to show their patriotism and get better deal from the 'owners' of Nigeria

thirdly, they are divided and the north exploits their division. Since we igbos are the only group that unite them we must try our all we can in helping them out.

What i am saying is that you cannot gauge the opinion of an average ss person regarding biafra by listening to their selfish politicians. Only a referendum can do that. Before the war, britan claim their concern was for biafran minorities but when ojukwu offered them the option of referendum, they conducted a survey secretly and saw most of them wanted biafra and opted for military solution. A referendum must be conducted, If they vote to leave nigeria in a referendum, good. If they stay, good.

Again if after leaving nigeria, they choose to stay with Igbos in biafra, good. If they want to go their own way with niger delta republic, Better! 'cos i've always wanted a homogeneous Biafra

saint7000:
Afonja impostering as Anioma. I have studied this people for yrs on Nairaland; they will open an account and maintain they are Igbo or from SS for months, to be able to fool you when they make a U-TURN, if you are not smart, you will think they are Igbo or SS because of their post history. This afonja even posted a pic of an Igbo man in his profile. Why didn't use an Afonja pic in your profile? We all know Afonjas don't have muscles nor look that fresh or attractive.

he is real anioma and a pro biafran

"Igboid" such is silly political invention.

I wouldnt have bothered to comment if some supposedly enlightened Igbos didnt post in a manner that is patrionizing to Igbo division agenda

All the indigenous cultures from ika down oratta and ikwerre are Igbo. The variations are just dialects. Some that we call dialects are not even variant enough to constitute one.

Imagine a grown-up saying ikwerre and ogba are "igboid languages"

do you even know the meaning of Igboid? What an insult on the sensibility of Igbos!

people should stop engaging in the crass abuse of the word "language"

someone even said that Igbo is not a homogeinous group. What an academic misfit! Do you know that a historian once suggested that the entire Igboland must have had one single ruler in the distant past, since it is difficult to explain why market days, kinship and well entrenched customs are same throughout igboland.

the slave traders who visited the Niger area since the 14th century clearly recorded majority of the slaves they got as having come from the "heebo" country.

The colonialist in their own account documented that two third of lower niger (old eastern region) are Igbo. These whites related first hand with the natives, spent years with them, studied their culture, religion, belief system, mythology, tradition, ritual, market days etc and concluded the igbos are one and even share one history.

We will not allow some intellectual fraudsters to declare that Igbo is not a homogenous group and go further to arrogate on themselves the academic authority of making phantom declaration behind the keyboard that some igbo dialects are 'igboid' and some are igbo.

If you are looking for attention and you think telling Igbo story the way it will please our enemies is the only way to get it then think again.

Lalasticlala pls take this back to politics where it originally belongs.

A jambite cannot apply for M.Sc.
You can only get your B.Sc degree first before you "master" in an area. Learn igbo first before talking about a dialect.

kogistar:
wicked terrorist illiterate Buhari

good boy!

What difference does it make?

modath:
Nigeria will be reduced to ashes before "the owners" (elites from NEWS) will allow any division take place... The sooner the delusional utopians come to term with that the better for their mental state!

thats what pessimists think because they mystify the elites. People like Kanu who have same spirit with trump dont. Thats why they achieve results.

When he makes history let me know

Funnicator:
Looks more like publicity stunts.



And why they no iron their rumpled flag??

it's still better than this

Convulsion loading

Mere looking at this thread u see why Nigeria can never work. Most yorubas challeging the estimate are doing so because NBS says kano is bigger than lagos not the fact that kano's estimate was inflated. If kano is put at 18million and lagos is put at 20million by same NBS the figure will become "right" to them, any inflation that may occur notwithstanding.

This summarizes SW position on national issues. Injustice from the north is injustice to them but when they begin to benefit from same injustice they attempt to explain why it is really "right"

Obama is a fool
he is the worst president America ever had.

At least this latest move against Russia will push Russia into scuttling Obama's planned diplomatic move against Israel.

Godfullsam:
No states from the north, south east and south south

Let IPOD catch you...

IPOD is no catching, he is catching himself with a consolation thread.

...from a yorubaman who is not in tune with current trend and reality.

5 best cities to live in are:

Abuja
Enugu
Lagos
portharcourt
Owerri

calabar and jos would have been there but loss of oil status for cross river state leading to low commercial activities and destitutes in calabar while insurgency dealth once peaceful jos a blow making it insecure and ultimately reducing its liveability.

Anyone following current trends will notice these new generation/ emmerging ones

Uyo
Asaba
Awka
Akure

And IPOB is winning them in the diplomatic front

siokpe:
Hehehe, Igbos looking for land in Benue? is it in Ogbadibo? are the Igbos in Otukpa, Orokam or Owukpa? Is it Ado? Are there igbos in Igumale, Agila, Utonkon, Ulayi, Ijigban? Dont fool yourself . There are no indigenous Igbos there. We grew up here and know everywhere. Or can you name the Igbo town in Benue? We can only say of Idoma/Igala people in parts of Enugu Ezike in Enugu.

there are Igbos in Benue Mr thomas. I served with one and comfirmed it. Do you know steve crown the Gospel singer?
His name actually is steve crown Okolo and his website says he is from Benue state. Pls stop playing the ostrich.
