U AND YOUR ENTIRE IJAW PEOPLE ARE VERY STUPID DRUNKARDS.


WOULD IT NOT BE EXPEDIENT TO LEAVE YOU PEOPLE IN HARMS WAY AND SAY U ALL DIED WHILST FIGHTING WAS ONGOING.


U DISPLAY A CLASSIC SIGN OF HUMAN EVIL THINKING AND WICKEDNESS.

There was no harm because we were neutral until you invaded and evacuated our people. It was in the process replacing our people with your people those who escaped or their communities were yet to be evacuated, regrouped and joined the Nigerian war effort.

Cry me a river. Ogogoro no be achievement.

Neither is cannibalism or Igbo smoking an achievement!
I don't need to educate you on the value ogogoro but I hope you know, without ogogoro your 'gods' can't wake up.

PHijo




DURING BIAFRA WAR, ALMOST EVERY LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND PEOPLE IN IGBO LAND WAS EVACUATED.


HERE IS A POST BY PAZIENZA GIVING AN ACCOUNT OF WAT HAPPENED IN HIS VILLAGE.



THIS WAS BEFORE U IDIOTS CREATED THIS THREAD, .


MAY GOD CONTINUE TO PUNISH YOUR IJAW PEOPLE.


WEN U LOOK AT YOUR LIFE TODAY, CANT U SEE THAT U LOOK LIKE A CURSED PEOPLE.

Igbo people were not evacuated, they relocated or fled. Evacuation is what happened to the Jews in Europe and the Chinese/Koreans in Asia. They were forcefully taken away to concentration camps by the military. In those camps, they were used as sex slaves, starved, they were used as unpaid labour.

The difference between the Igbo and Islamic terrorists is religion, other than that you the same sadistic tendencies. You will about people mistreating you yet you are quick to do even worse to others.

God has ALWAYS blessed Ijaw and God will continually bless the Ijaw nation.

You are the cursed ones, you changed the laws and political system so that you will rule in every region and steal all of their wealth for yourselves. Today, the Fulani are the beneficiaries. You wanted the Niger Delta to be homeless today you ones erosion and poverty cannot allow to state in your place. No matter how Nigeria has polluted our ecosystem God in His infinite mercies continues to feed us and keep us alive despite all the odds.

Juliusmalema:
Sounds like you are already crying

LMAO.

Cry for who? Criminal societies? NEVER!

hammerpP:
I AM ONE OF THE PEOPLE THAT ALWAYS PREACH LOVE BUT I THINK BECAUSE OF THE NATURAL NICENESS OF THE IGBO MAN, THIS DRUNKARDS SEE IT AS WEAKNESS.


U CAN IMAGINE, THEY WERE ACCOMMODATED IN IGBOLAND, FED AND SHARED SHELTER WITH IGBO PEOPLE.


NOBODY KILLED THEM, WHEN FIGHTING END, THEY CAME BACK AND STARTED KILLING THEMSELVES AND HANDING THEIR BROTHERS TO YORUBA AND FULANI NIGERIA ARMY TO BE KILLED.


HOW DO I PREACH LOVE FOR SUCH A PEOPLE.

We were not accommodated in Igboland, we were forced to be in Igboland. The goal was to take our land for the Igbo.

AniOmaa:
Besides militancy, beating your women and drinking shepe all day... what indices of achievements can the entire Izon boast of? I challenge you to name just one Izon person that is globally recognized and I'll list 40 from my local government area alone. Bros no need to compare the almighty Igbo nation to your useless tribe, that one be like comparing 2020 Massaesri GT convertible to 1999 Ford escort. Anioma alone, just small Anioma oooo a small Igbo subgroup will dust you clowns on all indices you can think of, I can't even think of a single Izon person of value that exists

If it is a role call for armed robbers, kidnappers, ritualists, fraudsters, drug peddlers etc. You will always win. We are people of integrity, we are not like you. We remain in Ijawland because that is our home. You too remain in your homes. If as you claimed, your places are better off, then stick to your homeland.

Shameless people!

IDENNAA:
Ignorance of this magnitude is quite embarrassing. If you didnt know then you should ask. Ijaw has no defined history or culture and dont you Ijaw borrow Igbo words like omugwo. This thread has degenerated to tantrums because you couldnt deal with facts. But to be brutally honest , Ijaw has nothing to brag about. Itshekiri , Edo and Uhrobo are too ahead of you despite your strategic location. You guys are just canoe men the whites used to make ends meet. Nothing special about you and you know it. The Igbo hoast of the oldest kingdom and some of the most intricate artifacts in west Africa.

Its an insult for an Ijaw to stand before Igbo and speak because you are inconsequential. You have no single culture of prominence. The mere fact that we gave you audience shouldnt be a reason for you to get carried away. You are still Ijaw and you know where you belong!!

You are right, Ijaw cannot stand before Igbos to talk. We sit while the Igbo kneel down to talk to us. That is if he is even given an audience. The Igbos are the cultural thieves. Took Ijaw jumper that is known as Feni . Made counterfeit version and are now calling it Isi Agwu. Borrowed the red cap from Bornu and are now calling ozo title holders cap. Borrowed the Ijaw priests their cap and claimed it was their traditional attire.

The Urhobo, Benin, Itsekiri, Efiks, Ijaw and other Niger Deltans have rich cultural heritage and historical records with edifices to prove. You lack a history that is why Nnamdi Kanu has peg to to the Niger Delta states. Recently he has gone as far as claiming Cameroon.

People who at best, had age grade 'prefects' want to define who had culture or history. If you had a culture or history you would have had some semblance of dignity. You have been rejected continually but you keep coming back because you lack culture and history. History more than a few clay pots scattered here and there. It involves the existence of institutions, prominent personalities and diplomatic clout.

Amarabae:
lol what a shabby reply.
am sure my comment hit your nerves,
1, am done schooling you on history of Asa/Ndoki, we are not and will never be Ijaws.
No true ASA/Ndoki will claim Ijaw, fact
am not going to stress this matter again, you know the bitter truth.
2, Igbos are far ahead of Ijaws in all ramifications even in the next 100 years, only Nnewi alone will squash any little ijaw achievement .
3. Ijaws have no central language, your poorly developed languages are not mutually intertwined, why will any sensible person argue this?
Igbos have central Igbo language developed by the CMS missionaries to unify the different mutually intertwined dialects.
4, Igbos are not your mates, The igbo-hatred enshrined into you by your parents is making you look older than your age,
what a bitter little boy.
by the way you keep shouting warrant chief, lol
Tell me one ijaw mushroom king that is up to Obi of Onitsha level or even Igwe of nnewi level in Nigeria?
who know you people?
have a sit please and while sitting tell us why none of your ijaw mushroom kings are in the national first class monarchs like our obi of Onitsha?
get lost

If any language is "poorly developed " it is your Igbo language. A language that does not have Male or female gender. One of the languages in Nigeria with the least vocabulary. Prior to colonialism Igbos borrowed words from the Ijaw language, today you are borrowing mostly from English.

I wonder when stating crimes committed by Igbos and their land grabbing tendencies has turned to a crime!

Our monarchs have pedigree, they have history, they don't buy their thrones. When most of your people were still in the rainforests. Our monarchs, had embassies in the important courts across the known world. You had monarchs thanks to the existence of Nigeria. That's reason you attach so much importance to the validation that gives you because you are Nigeria's creation.

If I am an old man, then you should respect my account of the war, child.

Ijaw can not compete with you, you are not in ANYWAY in our league. Find your mates elsewhere, we are too refined for you folks.

Nice action! I am touched by this gesture.

Amarabae:
you must be on high cocaine to label Ndokis as Ijaws, very high cocaine,
as a full blooded ASA/Ndoki breed from oyigbo and likely older in age than you, the little ijaw impurity in ndoki came as a result of ibani migration into ndoki land, they were migratory fishermen who intertraded with ndokis and a mixed up occurred.
An attempt to ijawnise ASA/Ndoki will end up in total failure, I have seen some funny move by IYC.
we are not ijaws, the aminadokari crap your iyc forged is firmly reject in ndoki land, Ndoki by origin are one of the offshoots of Okpulu Ngwa who had an admixture with some ibani migrants,
ndoki is an anglicized form of Ndi-Oki(Bamboo People) a name given to ndokis by the ngwa neighbours
I have seen you ranting mouth like a gay against Igbos , I keep hearing crap like slave bla bla bla,
slave trade occurred among the Jews,Yoruba's,Igbos,ibibioss etc ,is that a basis for one to be misyearning.
In all ramifications, Igbos and Ijaws are not in the same level both in academics,money,business,international exposure and recognition etc
and for your info, Oyigbo indigenes like me don't have identity crisis,
Go to any village in oyigbo and conduct a survey ,ask them if they are ijaws,ccome here and tell us the result.
even opobo is ndoki Land but thats story for another day.
ijaws lack a cohesive centralized identity to be considered as an ethnic nation, its just a grouping of riverine clans whose language are not mutually intertwined.

When you are traditional cocaine mules in Africa how can I be higher than you on cocaine?

A lot of Igbo in the last 20 years have relocated from the North to Port Harcourt and its environs after the Northeners kicked your sorry asses out of their place.

You are right, Ijaw and Igbo are not on the same level. We don't don't have our sons in prison across the globe. We don't have baby factories nor our daughters chasing their ancestors across the length and breath of Nigeria. In this your little post you just exposed your ignorance on the places being discussed and you to claim to be from Rivers state. Like I said, no indigenous Oyigbo person will claim to be Igbo. All those resident in that area know where they come from in Imo or Abia state.

All Ijaw languages are related and what you call centralized Igbo today was created to ease the colonial administrative burden that was managed by colonial government appointed Igbo warrant chiefs.

Dedetwo:
I do not give a ratass if you gave birth to Ijo. I can bet my last cent that your mother might have not been born during the period of the subject matter. Only dumb fool will believe Biafra will even think an instance to murder men, women, young boys and girls who could be of certain help in one way or the other in the fight against Nigeria. What a goon.

I will not talk about my immediate family that was evacuated or buried alive by the Biafra rebels. Accounts like Senator Sekibo's autobiography and that of Kelsey Harrison amongst others. I have posted a video account by natives of Bakana. Several other communities have similar videos on their experience. We are "dumb fools" to accept the accounts of our relatives who experienced the killings but we should accept Chiamnda Adichie's account things that happened 50 years ago despite the fact she is less than 40.

We should not speak about our experience but the Igbo have every right to say whatever they wish to say and everyone else is expected to accept that as the sole truth.

Juliusmalema:
They are nothing and they are dead. You beloved ones are dead and gone same way others died.

Ijaw should face front and mind their business.

They are not needed.

let them take their nonsense to useless kanu and his Ipob Miscreants.

Direct your rants to your Igbo kinfolk and their albino Hebrew wannabe leader. We Ijaws have no business with Kanu, if his disciples cannot respect themselves, if need be we will respond precisely.

TripleOh7:
Actually I don't have to bite my fingers in regret much longer.

Because I'm sure very soon I won't have to share the same country with people like you any longer.

Unless you were born in 2010, no sane human adult can say that Jonathan wasn't a disaster to the Nigerian polity.

Even his people in the Niger Delta have realized that the 6 years of Jonathan was a complete waste.

He did practically NOTHING for his people.

One of the first things that Buhari did on getting power was to initiate the clean up of Ogoni land in the Niger Delta.

Jonathan was busy spraying dollars to his cronies and interest groups.

I don't even know why I'm arguing this point with you.

Most of you will rather hug the lie than embrace the truth.

Atiku! Go and read what his principal, Obasanjo wrote about him.

You are shooting about Buhari's first coming as a military dictator.

A regime that lasted barely 2years.

An administration that too over power from a government equally corrupt and depraved as the future Jonathan government.

Maybe you should sign up for a history lesson on Nigeria.

I don't know how ignorant you guys can be!
People wearing PPEs to pour sand is NOT environmental clean up. Sorry to bust your bubble, I am not Igbo.

What Buhari Buhari is doing is an attempt to hide the polluted spots by covering it with fresh layers of soil. He is actually compounding the environmental issues.

NNPC , which the largest polluter of the Niger Delta is yet to pay her part into fund that was dedicated for the clean up.

The best Jonathan could have done for his people in particular and Nigeria at large was the passage of the Petroleum industry bill, the constitution could have subject to changes based on recommendations made at the reforms conferences organised under Obasanjo and Jonathan. The outcomes were rejected by your leaders the same way you rejected the petroleum industry bill but you were quick to pass the FOI act.

Barely 2 years but those years had the same crippling effects as the last 5 years.

In the past Buhari overthrew Shagari citing corruption as the reason behind his intervention. Within 2 years brought down Nigeria's economy. Despite sweeping powers he had as a military despot. South Korea and Brazil witnessed rapid economic growth and technological advancements under military despots.

Obasanjo said it is only fools who reinforce failure, he failed as a military despot. That alone should have told any rational thinker he lacks the ability to fulfil any of the promises he made.

Under Jonathan Nigeria's economy overtook South Africa's as the largest in Africa. It had an annual growth rate that was amongst the top 10 in the world, it was Africa's no1 destination for investment. Today, it overtaken India, a country with 5 times Nigeria's population as the world's poverty capital.

Your problem is that you want to fly before you crawl, sadly instead of flying or crawling you are now crippled.

Buhari being a real Hausa perfume seller, sold you a dream that he will "stabilise global oil prices ", and make Naira equivalent to a dollar. Not only did he cripple the economy, he has left the average Nigerian in a comatose state. They are too hungry to stand up from their beds, not talk going to Ojota to 'protest'.

TripleOh7:
You are confusing yourself here.

How did we reinforce failure in 2015 when Buhari was contesting as a civilian person for the first time?

To have voted Jonathan would have indeed been to reinforce abject failure and crass incompetence.

Of course, Buhari doesn't seem to be doing a much better job, but the wanton profligacy that marked the Jonathan administration has REDUCED.

You say we brought in a fundamentalist in 2015. I say that's a good hindsight statement.

Why did I include Igbo in the narrative?

Because they are virtually the only ethnic group who still blame Yorubas for voting for Buhari and not supporting the two proven Kleptomaniacs, Jonathan and Atiku.

So automatically, I presumed your ethnicity.

It is unfortunate I have to share country with people like you. Without any prove you call people criminals. Despite past failure in the 80s, you defend Buhari because of your unbridled ethnic extremism.

TripleOh7:
Same premise.

If you are blaming the Yorubas for voting for Buhari cos he is Fulani, the same applies to you for voting Atiku.

Or is Atiku an Igbo man?

What difference does the year make?

There were Igbos running for presidency alongside Atiku, but you preferred the Fulani man over them and then turned around to blame the Yorubas for voting another Fulani, same as you.

Many! The difference it makes is that in 2015 you reinforced failure. My statement was explicit. You brought a Fulani fundamentalist in 2015. The issue was not with being Fulani but his mindset in a plural society like Nigeria.

Why did you have to include Igbo in your comment?

TripleOh7:
Atiku is Igbo abi?

Atiku contested in 2015 abi?
Why is comprehension a problem for some of you?

OfoIgbo:
Yet again, we cannot be blackmailed. You think by rolling out an unsubstantiated video, you will get Igbos to come crawling. Keep on waiting.

This is a different set of Igbos. Unshakeable

Bonny is ours, and we will dredge the River Niger up to Kainji, and make sure the full length of the river is utilised by the people God placed at her banks. This will include the Igalas, Tivs, Hausas e.t.c

The water will swallow you!

EzeAro:
Dude are you mentally re.tarded or something? Firstly you're a BLOODY minority, Ijaw nation is a minority ethnic nationality and if the Nigerian census figures are anything to reckon with, you are not even up to the Ibibios in population.

Secondly Ijaw are homeless sojourners in Nigeria just like the Fulani, even the small Bayelsa state you have was because Igbos like Ebitu Ukiwe and Zik pushed you minority Ijaw scums from dominating the politics of River state, and handed that privilege to the Ikwerre who despite their Igbo denial, are linguistically a subgroup of the Igbo nation. Are you getting my drift now? Igbos have ALWAYS put you in your little minority place where you rightfully belong, whenever you tried punch above your height.

Thirdly I have to reiterate my question about your mental status cause I can't seem to understand for the life of me what you mean by this outrageously dumb submission, "Imo[b] is the weakest strain to lay claim of anything. Is unfortunate your history is too shameful for your fathers to tell you. The only Igbos that had history that is worthy of mention are certain parts of Anambra. That is why you barely see people from Anambra engage in the folly the likes of Nnamdi Kanu have been engaged in.[/b]" like WTF does that even mean? I definitely lost some brain cells reading that inanity, please stop embarrassing yourself like this, I'm sure the Ijaws aren't there stupid.

Lastly there is nothing to even argue about, Jaja of Opobo is an Igbo man from Imo state, and his family compound can still be found in Amaigbo with all the documented facts to back it up. An Igbo man founded one of the kingdoms of your people, he have your otherwise inconsequential tribe a sense of limelight and history by establishing Opobo. We defined a very key part of your history, and that's a fact you have to live with as a minority man all your life.

Go and claim America!
The Ijaws and their neighbours bought your children you could not care for just save them from ending in the soup pot. Today they call it international adoption.

Jaja would never have been king if he was Igbo. Ijaws had laws and institutions. They were at par with monarchies of that era across the known world. That you had no history until 1960 does not mean what I am saying is not known facts. You will find our history in many countries across the globe. So I am not shocked that you are overwhelmed by the facts as you depend on hustlers the likes of Nnamdi Kanu for your 'history ' lessons.

OfoIgbo:
Nwokem stop all these your division attempts. I am from Anambra and a solidly conscious Igboman from the Nri clan that introduced much of the cultural practices that people as far as Benin, still practice. I am not an Ikwerre man you can dangle things at to force to deny his Igboness.

Harold Dappa Biriye, your god of yesterday, was fighting for MINORITY RIGHTS. Nothing wrong with being a minority.

Jaja's biography is very clear on the fact that he was from Amaigbo in Imo state

I am not interested in your Igbo unity or division. It is the Igbo that are overtly interested in Ijaw issues and I can understand why certain Igbos want to be associated by all means with history of non-Igbos and that's what i referred to.

The Benin or any other group you claimed adopted your culture can respond to that, that's none of my business.

You have comprehension issues, it is rather unfortunate. The Ijaw were to be split across regions and that was what Biriye was fighting against. The term minority was used loosely by the Igbo to refer to non-Igbo under the defunct eastern region. It doesn't mean those were significantly fewer than the Igbo.

Ijaw did not dangle anything at the Ikwerre, even your greed today is still pushing people away from you. From the North to South, from the South to West and even as far as Thailand, they are all complaining about Igbos. Are the Thai also Nigerians that want to divide Igbo because land or anything else?
It is high time you guys tell yourselves the simple truth and make amends. There is nothing wrong in being a minority but the facts is the Ijaw are not a minority.

Which biography? Written by who?
Anyway, Jaja did not find Opobo, he was made the first monarch of Opobo because you Igbos had no institutionalised system of governance until the white created the warrant chief system for you, you will be challenged with the process of setting up kingdoms, chiefdoms and royal dynasties.

IDENNAA:
Spreading these false narratives will not help you lot. We have the facts and you are wailing. Write all the nonsense you write and we will still debunk and trash it. Senseless black ffools

You have NOTHING to say!
You debunked nothing.

Albino Jew wannabe! I am black and proud.

OfoIgbo:
Typical expansionist. I have found you out. This is what you had in mind before you came up with that concocted video of yet another Igbo crime. But it will not work for you this time around. Igbanis are Igbanis. Ndoki Igbos are Ndoki Igbos. The date, video recording and time of the new name Oyigbo can be easily derived, and it happened during the reign of Melford Okilo. So it will never be a name like Obigbo, which is antiquated and shrouded in ancient mystery, much like the names of most places.

Jaja was from Amaigbo and his biography is well known, so this your new attempt will not even stand, when put through the test.

Search for Oyigbo (previously Obigbo) and see what language is ascribed to that LGA. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivers_State

It has ALWAYS been Oyigbo!
No wonder you are not tolerated the North.
If not for our natural kindness, none of you would have returned after all you did during the war. This rubbish you are talking is probably what caused the pre war pogrom. Calling people thieves for what is rightfully theirs.

Cc:Amarabae, Pazienza

Nne come and see what this Ijaw minority idiot is posting oooo , Ijaw wan claim Obigbo! According to the minority ogogoro drinking scum King Jaja, a proud Amaigbo son from Imo state isn't Igbo

To start with, Ijaw is NOT a minority and being a minority is not wrong neither is it a proof of if you are telling the truth or not.

In comparison to the population of Nigeria the English was a minority, yet they colonised you.

Imo is the weakest strain to lay claim of anything. Is unfortunate your history is too shameful for your fathers to tell you. The only Igbos that had history that is worthy of mention are certain parts of Anambra. That is why you barely see people from Anambra engage in the folly the likes of Nnamdi Kanu have been engaged in.

King Jaja never claimed to be Igbo and he never came limelight as an Igbo man.

If I was in your shoe I would be ashamed to claim Jaja was sold to Ijaws by NdiIgbo. It is obvious shame is a scarce word in the lexicon of Igbo like you.
I can't sink into the pit with someone that claims to be speaking on behalf of a tribe named and known for their involvement with narcotics.

I ADVICE you to focus on HISTORICALLY verifiable FACTS !

OfoIgbo:
Magnus Abe is from Rivers state and not an Ndoki-Igbo, neither is he Ijaw, so he occupies a neutral ground in this argument. Don't discount his stipulations because he doesn't favour your land-grabbing ambitions. And by the way, he is from Eleme according to this article https://allafrica.com/stories/201908140047.html

The word OBIGBO (The Igbo Heart), clearly states what Ndokis are. That your expansionist leaders then decided to change it to OYIGBO, so that you guys can commence this latter day "Ndokis are Ijaws" crap won't wash.

Even Ken Saro Wiwa referred to them as Ndoki Igbos, and Igbo is the language that Ndokis speak, and their culture is Igbo. The former president of my Igbo youth group in the UK, was an Ndoki man. So you will have an impossible time, convincing people that Ndokis are Ijaws. I am aware your Ijaw people have been making clandestine visits to Ndoki territories seeking that they tolerate the notion that they have Ijaw affinity. Good luck with that, but Ndokis are Igbos.

So Bonny Island and Opobo are Ndoki-owned towns and are Igbo Deal with that
Ehm, well Opobo is owned by the Jaja descendants, according to a supreme court ruling

I laugh at your ignorance!
Jumbo jumbogha otherwise known as Jaja is an Ibani Ijaw just like anyone else. Oyigbo you erroneously refer to as Obigbo is Ijaw. In fact, if you are conversant with history you would know that the Ibani and Okrika clans of the Ijaw nation are deeply intertwined that the Ndoki cannot be separated from the Ibani or Okrika Okrika Ijaw. You are confused by what it means to be Ibani, Okrika, Ndoki or Oyigbo.

We Ijaws are not about to teach you revisionist Igbos our history.

The rubbish you are talking is like telling a Jew he is no Jewish because he is European or North American. Like I told you before, claim America, Brazil , Colombia or Mexico where you sold your kinfolk to. Supreme court ruling or not, Jumbo jumbogha left Bonny island for Opobo as an Ibani Ijaw. He died an Ijaw man. There is no evidence that Jaja had ever been an Igbo man. Every record of Jumbo jumbogha was in Ijawland and of him being Ijaw. Anybody can claim to come from any part of Nigeria, we know how many Igbos claim to be Saro-Wiwa 's father's sister's brother just to be given stay in foreign countries so we don't care about your union chairman. For all we care, no indigenous Oyigbo or Ndoki person would claim to be Igbo.

OfoIgbo:
Nah, Portharcourt is now your nightmare since it is probably no longer your state capital. Ikwerres will burn you alive if you dare claim it.

Even Senator Magnus Abe, an Eleme man know that Bonny was founded by Ndokis from Azuogu https://www.nairaland.com/2391489/even-senator-magnus-abe-knows

And if you think Ndokis are not aware of their ownership of the place, well also check this site out https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=1644407672497838&set=introductory-of-bonny-ndoki-disagreement-18th-centuriesgeorge-pepple-is-nominall

Obviously, I will back the umu Ubani claims, as it is well known, and any of your territory annexation plans will come to nought. There is no way I will support any group who use any opportunity to try and rubbish the Igbo name with their shadowy friends from the SW

First things first, Port Harcourt is my state capital. Secondly dem no born that Ikwerre man wey wan born me alive well! No mortal man can burn me or do me any harm.

Magnus Abe is not an Eleme man, stop talking about issues you know nothing about.

Magnus Abe is not qualified to tell any of us Ijaw history. He is not Ijaw, he is not from Bonny, he his not an historian by training.

Ndoki. Is Ijaw, I won't tell you the name in full. You spin masters are looking for clues to promote your expansionist agenda. As Ijaw people we are firm and resolute in our resolve to preserve our history and heritage.

Finally, it is no coincidence that from Bonny in Rivers state to Brass in Bayelsa state, we call our monarchs Amayanabo. Please leave us alone! You've caused enough trouble already. Even Ikwerre people who share linguistic ties with you are ashamed to share the same identity with you. Let Ijaw people be abeg!

OfoIgbo:
That I am forcefully against something is not necessarily a bad thing, but for the Ijaws to then go put up a huge batch of made-up stories, and anti-Igbo concoctions, so that the white man Willinks would give them a state was a new low of depravity. If you cannot see this point then there is no reason us carrying on in these exchanges.

Zik was within his rights to still want a united east, afterall the NCNC government (according to Willinks report) was fair to all, and there was no attempt by NCNC to favour just the Igbos. If the reverse was the case, then Zik will have no right to seek a united east. Fortunately, the Willinks report remains an article that has vindicated Zik's opposition to the balkanisation of the east.

Zik was oldskool and was amongst the set of Igbos that thought that justice was justice, be it Igbo or UnIgbo. That was why he joined a Macaulay-led party, not caring that the guy was not his fellow Igbo. He could have easily formed an Igbo party and still be very successful at it, but he didn't.

So if you want to judge Zik, you have to do it through the prism of his own beliefs and the way he led his life. Zik's Achilles' Heel was his addiction to this unity, with people who don't even have the same fundamental beliefs with you. Awo and Sardauna understood this. He was like a candle in the wind, from that point of view, and that is why most Igbos are not really "feeling him" of recent.

As to the remaining claptrap about the Ijaw nation honouring Biriye, be my guest, as that won't even remove a strand of hair from the Igbo people. I won't be surprised, if this so-called rights activist, benefited from the abandoned properties episode. So much for his humanity. Benefiting from an injustice meted out against other people. So he ain't my hero as you can imagine.

And that he or his ancestors were settlers in Ubani-land should not be the reason for him to drag Ndoki-Igbo territory into his gimmick. Forget all that clever wikipedia moves to help eradicate the Ndoki Igbo ownership of Bonny Island. Those that own the island know themselves.
I also noticed you have attached PH to your moniker. Dream on

The 1st question you should have asked is what political parties existed at the time? What clout did Zik have then? Who gave him his 1st political platform? When you have these questions answered 1st you will know there was no Igbo Party he could have used for his career. The North you look down on today was better poised politically than the Ndiigbo. Zik by the circumstances of his birth and career path should have been a unifier of the different regions of Nigeria but he went on to be a bridge burner. He sowed the seeds of discord and mistrust the Country is plagued with it is one thing to claim to be pan-African and another to act solely in the interest of tribe and tongue in a multiethnic Country.

Brother as an Igbo I'm not exonerating my people from any war crimes they committed even if it was far and in between. Definitely war crimes were committed by troops on BOTH sides, the Biafrans weren't saints either but if the documented files on the crimes are anything to reckon with, then the Federal soldiers definitely committed far more war crimes than the Biafrans. The Asaba massacre of more than 700 civilians alone beats any documented records on the Biafran side. Are you also trying to imply that the Nigerian soldiers didn't kill, pillage and rape minorities that they "liberated" in places like Calabar, Uyo and Rivers? cause I have loads and loads of available facts on that... I just find it strange you are trying to paintbrush the Biafran side in a bad hue, as if the Nigerian soldiers were any better if not worse on your people.

There were abuses by the Nigerian army but never on the scale of the Biafran Army. The Nigerian Army did not bury civilians alive as the Biafrans did. They did not wipe out communities. Nigeria said so a new nation can be built we should not speak about experiences on either side. The Biafrans have been the ones to continually break this agreement claiming to be victims when they perpetuated far worse crimes. It is about time their victims speak up.
