What is Waboso in Ijaw?

Why should I tell you?

All the names there are names I can tell you the meaning. Knowing how you Igbos behave, I won't tell you the meaning.

People know the word "so" is associated with all the Oru .

nku5:
So an Urhobo man (Ejoor) introduced the arabic inscription on the Nigerian Army logo, a Bini man (Akenzua) told Gowon to betray the Aburi Accord and now we learn that an Ijaw man was the one that sold the idea to Gowon for regions and resource control to be scrapped and states to be created. Very interesting...

It is disingenuous of you to claim he asked Gowon to scrap resource control.
His call for state creation is popular till date, it brought an end to the oppressive eastern region and her western counterpart.

SlayerForever:
Off the top of my head I could wager the man is a bastard. Reading through he just confirmed it.

It is you and your family that are bastards!

How dare you insult our iconic Ijaw and Niger Delta leader?

Really? All these are Igbo names and only Igbos call their kings "Eze"


So if they have have Ijaw roots, I'm yet to see it, even in their kings

All those words in bold are Ijaw words.

They can make it 9 months in Nigeria, 3 months in another West African country.

His Majesty King Dandeson Douglas Jaja ( Natural Ruler Of Opobo Kingdom)
Paying visit to ndoki nation in abia state

If you know the history of Abia and Imo you wouldn't even post it!

Much of Abia and Imo was owned by Ijaws and Ibibio people.

The Ndoki have Ijaw ancestry. This is something we ( Ijaws) in Rivers state know.

Nwanyiogwashi:
Ijaw does not have a single land in Delta state, any ijaw you see in Delta state is there for business like we have Hausa and Yoruba people.

Mgbeke feeling funky!

Delta state does not start and end in Uguwashi Uku.

You that claims to be from Delta doesn't know your deputy governor is Ijaw.

Patani, Burutu and Bomadi are all homogeneous Ijaw LGAs in Delta state. Before Nigeria existed the presence of Ijaw people in present day Delta state was documented.

It would interest me to know if that Igbo man with Arabic name was an Islamic fundamentalists.

24SEVEN:
you hear 50% in your fvcking dreams.!!!. "Ijaws" in Andoni and Abua and Ahoada west in Rivers never understand 5% of kalabari, it is you in far away Delta state.

pray let lying not kill you one day.

My friend, he will even understand more than 50 percent. That 50 percent is an understatement.

As a native speaker of Rivers Ijaw I have understood people from Bayelsa, Delta and Ondo when they speak. Anyone who tells you he doesn't understand, does not speak his dialect well or doesn't pay attention.

The words are the same. What differs most times is how the sentence is constructed and sometimes how it is pronounced.

For instance wari is house all over. In some clans Owei is both man/male. In some others Owei is just male.

Anyone who tells you otherwise is misleading you.

Bonny speak Ibani, bare Ibani names. Ibani is one of the purest Ijaw dialects. Their king goes by the traditional title, amayanabo. The same with the monarchs of Opobo, Kalabari, Bille, Okrika, Nembe, Brass, Okpoama etc.

In case you don't know, people from Bonny were instrumental in the formation of the Ijaw umbrella body.

Apart from Boro, another man that is referred by the Ijaw nation is Biriye, he hails from Bonny island.

He was the brain behind the formation of NDC, the party that defeated Azikiwe's NCNC in Ijawland. [/s]

Opobo land is personal estate of king jaja according to supreme court of Nigeria,opobo speak Igbo till today
Bonny land is own Igbo better start understanding that.

Ignorance dey worry you! I won't expose our history to you.

Nigercity:
Lolz

In all Igbo land Bia is come, go is ga
And so on
Can these be said for your ijaw franchise

In Igboland some people call God Olisa. Others call Chukuwu. Stop fooling yourself! If any group is a franchise it is you Igbos.

I know your people are seen as fake Deltans by the rest of Delta, fake Igbo by the Igbo, let me leave what the Bini see you as at the moment.

If I was from Bayelsa I will be very proud of it. I envy my friends from Bayelsa. What their governors have done in terms of human capital development, none of my governors in Rivers state have done it in the last 21 years. Only Amaechi came close. [/s]

When did militia become human capital

From time immemorial!
They will send you to your ancestors in seconds.

Anioma people don't go into early marriage like it is done in your bayelsa state
I'm only 23years old and working class

Yesterday 24, today 23. Aren't you sure of your age?

I can see the not getting married early is an influence from Bini culture. Real Igbos were known to be paedophiles by tradition.

Nwanyiogwashi:

Lol why are you ijaws like this bonny that speak and bear Igbo name is now ijaw

Better develop bayelsa state

Bonny speak Ibani, bare Ibani names. Ibani is one of the purest Ijaw dialects. Their king goes by the traditional title, amayanabo. The same with the monarchs of Opobo, Kalabari, Bille, Okrika, Nembe, Brass, Okpoama etc.

I know your people are seen as fake Deltans by the rest of Delta, fake Igbo by the Igbo, let me leave what the Bini see you as at the moment.

You neither Bini or Igbo that begged to be part of Delta and by extension our region want to define which state Ijaw people are from!

It is obvious Kwale weed has don so much damage to your brain cells. [/s]

Ogwashi uku the soon to be capital of Anioma state is far better than bayelsa state in terms of human capital

Your opinion, Bini-Igbo hybrid.

Abonnema the soon to be capital of oil Rivers is ahead of Ogwashi Uku. The Grand Bonny kingdom, is also ahead of that your forest homeland.

Ahamefuna0001:
You're right, man. Little wonder they bore Igbo name which they don't even understand.

But you're shifting the goal post here, 24SEVEN is an Ikwerre from the same Rivers state you loved to claim, shouldn't you be making an instance to disprove his point by using Ikwerre?

You think I am like you Igbos? I don't claim Rivers, I am from Rivers. All four grandparents are Ijaw from Rivers state.

Nwanyiogwashi:
[s][/s]

When you are done doing business in rivers state ,you can go back to your 8 local government in bayelsa state. No ijaw in rivers or Delta state full stop.

You neither Bini or Igbo that begged to be part of Delta and by extension our region want to define which state Ijaw people are from!

It is obvious Kwale weed has don so much damage to your brain cells.

24SEVEN:
Oga if they carry you and drop in Odi or Akassa brass, or Ekeremor or Ikuru town or Joinkrama or Bomadi or Burutu or Gbaramatu, you a self-claimed Ijawman from PHC will not understand nada in any of those languages as you have no central language. Infact no difference between you and say a fulani or Ibibio cos you will all be lost.

Dont argue, it is the truth.

but take an ngwa man or afikpo man or wawa anywhere in Igboland, he will speak Igbo and comprehend Igbo.

I will understand! Leave am

Nigercity:
Who is talking about oil company here
Or Nigeria
Lolz
You said some people are jealousy of you
Because of your imaginary and invisible success
And I said okay
Lemme bring the last born state of those that are jealousy of you to compare with your own State

And
When it comes to bad government
Ijaw own worst pass
Right from the Time of old Rivers State,
Tell me the last time something mind blowing was commissioned by the State government in Bayelsa.
Infact I doubt if you have been to bayelsa at all, you will have pity for your people
Cos the federal government and most oil companies gives you guys peanut from your own resources, with doing any tangible project
While your governor performs less than a secondary school head boy (with all the big allocations he receives)
While your elders seat at home drinking ogogorob all day, after which they will come out to Tell you (there children) that ijaw owns half of Nigeria,
While the ones that manage to make small moni through militancy or legal ways
Like Asari and Hilda

Will come out and start claiming Igbo (doing attache by force)
Where they jobless one that always drink ogogooro with the elders, will come and online doing land grabbing, unity begging and still accuse others of that
Anyway story for another day

Buh in BTW
Love the way you and Adakaboro8 lies and believe your lies lolz

If you never heard of anything at least you should know about the airport in Yenagoa!

All the remarkable infrastructure in Rivers state was built when Ijaw were in charge. The university, most of the major roads, factories like Pabod brewery, Newclime, Rivbiscuit and a host of others.

At least we got "peanuts", you Igbos get nothing!

Ahamefuna0001:
I thought he's your fellow Rivers man? Why not use Ikwerre to buttress your point?

It's a fact that Igbo has a lot of dialects but every Igboman from Rivers to Delta to Imo to Abia to Anambra to Enugu to Ebonyi understands the central Igbo and can communite with anyone as long as you're Igboid. That can't be said of Ijaw abi Ijo

My Ikwerre neighbours tell me otherwise. They say they can't understand Igbo.

Nigercity:
Lolz...
Shifting goal post

Lolz
The comparing was between Ebonyi state to bayelsa since the have less l.G.A
Buh you noticed you will easily loose out
So you tried shifting the goal post
And for the records we no the part of the country where there Rivers and stream are heavily polluted by the actions of oil spillage, bunkering e.t.c

We also know the Nigerian central government is the largest oil company. In addition, Igboland barely produces oil so the effects would be less there.

24SEVEN:
WHAT IS HOMOGENOUS ABOUT IJAW.

FROM ANDONI TO BONNY TO OGBIA TO EPIE TO ATISSA TO KALABARI TO ABUA TO IZON(MAINSTREAM) TO IGBO SPOKEN IN OPOBO TO KALABARI TO DEGEMA ALL ARE DIVERSE LANGUAGES GROM DIVERSE PEOPLE.

ALL YOU HAVE IN COMMON IS LIVING BY THE WATER.

IF YOU LIKE, KEEP LYING TO YOURSELVES.

What is homogeneous about the Ngwa, wawa or Afikpo people except for the fact they are all farmers?

Abeg find one bacha go take snuff or go smoke Igbo. I think you need it urgently.

Nigercity:

Anyway let's compare bayelsa capital city
To the capital city of the least state in south east

Below
Pics 1 and 2 : pictures of bayelsa from Nigeria media outlets (the guardian and channel tv)
Pics 3: bayelsa pictures from a foreign media outlet
Pics 4 Ebonyi state capital (the least state in South East)

Now you and pHijo should tell me between Ebonyi and bayelsa
Which one is to jealousy which one

So what's your point?

I am from Rivers state and the day I went to Yenagoa I fell in love with city. In Aba couldn't even drink water because of the stench and dirt in the city. Una no dey shame!

If you guys had shame you won't talk. Your Igbo governors have the worst track record in Nigeria.

God bless the soul of our father, Harold Dappa Biriye. He will ALWAYS be remembered in Ijaw history.

Nwanyiogwashi:
Is in their blood to insult when you tell them the bitter truth, ijaw start and end in 8 local government of bayelsa state not even their insult will change that.

Fake Bini woman you can bleat for as long as you like! People like you with a confused identity can not tell us we are not Ijaw. We know who we are and no matter how often you repeat your chant, it won't change anything.

HigherEd:
How you build a 5.2 billion naira primary school NUC requirement for starting a university is N1 Billion.

Forbes is wrong. Oyedepo would be roughly worth the same as Abdul Rabiu of Bua.

300 million naira for bookstore, not library. Place where dem dey buy book .

Yes, forbes may be wrong but papa makes a clear distinction between his personal wealth and that of the church. The ones listed here belongs to the church.

Nigercity:
nah insult you sabi
she's telling you the truth, since it hurt you
you now uproar with insult

Bini hybrid woman like u wan define people. The Nigeria government recognises us as Ijaw.
