All these crying for help is exposing your weaknesses, and yet the help never comes. Find solution to your problems, take the laws into your hands if you have too. Fight the foolanis to Protect your territories or keep shouting for help while your lands are being taken like have been happening in Jos. |

lastempero: Most Ogoni people would wish for Nigeria as a country work out, but this is steadily looking like its never going to be possible. I just want to enlighten you, at least 30 percent of todays Ogoni People are decendants of Igbo People who literarily walked from certain ibo speaking parts of the south east/south south and settled in ogoniland. I am not talking about the massive mixed marriages of ogoni men with igbo women who were slaves about to be exported. That literarilly means every ogoni man is genetically 50 percent igbo. Our language and certain cultures is from Ghana though. |

Fate Of Other SS Groups As UN Considers Ibom Republic Request. Part 3 Going further south and then easternwards one approaches present day Rivers state. Calls for NDR were arguably at the strongest in these areas. However with the current realities the individual ethnicities must now move on and deliberate on the way forward as the Ijaw ethnicity, ever active, announces a homogeneous republic for its people. This homogeneous Ijaw republic is set to carve chunks of the foremost South South state as the bulk of Ijaw ethnicities prepare to depart in light of an impending breakup. Being an economic powerhouse, the state possesses numerous key assets which will be split and acquired by the various ethnicities, in whatever country they find themselves post Nigeria. However several of this numerous ethnicities over time have formed ethnic clusters of similar idealogy and focus with the aim of pooling ideas and resources to fight for political power and influence. Starting at the Northern tip of the state going down and spreading east and southeastwards, all the way down to the fringes of the port city section of the state, and yet further down to Bonny, to the east of which lies Opobo, are areas peopled by ethnic Igbos (Pix attached). Pockets of other ethnicities with home areas in other lands are found therein too. However the ethnic Igbos of these areas, populous and assertive, remain firmly in charge. This ethnic Igbos of rivers state much like the Anioma people, find themselves in the minority South South and are subject to a duality of identity, both amongst themselves and from other non Igbo ethnic groups. The non Igbo minorities would embrace them in one instance and then shun them in another: that is to say, just like the Anioma, they are accepted as comrades only as far as the prevailing circumstance requires, and in other to maneuvre the extreme tribal atmosphere of (Nigeria and) the South South in particular these groups have continually (needed to) reinforce a pro minority stance at any given time as against an Igbo stance or position as would be the normal. This often than not means that majority of the ethnic Igbos of this area put themselves at opposing ends to the aspirations of the core Igbo area. In some cases as has been observed over the years, this stance has been seen to be taken to extremes. One of such anti-ethnic stand in favor of a pro minority one is seen in the ethnic Igbos support for a pro minority Niger Delta republic. As has been highlighted earlier the Rivers area has been a hot zone for NDR support before now. Proponents from the ethnic Igbo and minority areas alike have been seen to argue strongly in favor of a NDR, sometimes more strongly than the erstwhile legitimate owners of the struggle itself, the Ijaw ethnicity. Due to such loud and overt support, the ditching of the babelian NDR struggle in favor of more homogeneous republics in Ijaw and Ibom areas, leaves many in limbo. The process of seeking new alliances or restoring kinship bonds with the core Igbo areas is a long road many would rather not take. This is because for majority of ethnic Igbos in this area who have for decades glibly stood at odds to the rest of the Igbo nation, returning to the pro Biafran fold is considered dire, due to a likelihood of certain retribution. Looking to other options, historical and cultural considerations point to the fact that asking to join an Ijaw republic is quite out of the question. Ibom republic to the east would be unwelcoming and not feasible even if attempted. Such would be hinged on the Ogoni joining the arrangement. The Ogoni, who control most of the areas left after the Ijaw cluster are gone, are equally unlikely to receive them warmly. In the ethnic Igbo area a business or production cluster is absent, it is a consumer area. They however have a coastline, an existing port and a modern city domiciled in their area. Agricultural output is below average with little potential for tourism. The HDI level here is not very high. Of most consequence however, is the fact that the Ijaw and Ogoni block once removed, takes away a great chunk of the oil wealth enjoyed across the state and heavily depended on by the ethnic Igbos of this area. This throws the economic prospects of the ethnic Igbos in gloom. And with nowhere to seek workable alliances, the ethnic Igbos have now completely taken the posturing of sitting ducks. Looming large overhead is the core Biafran area of support. The Biafran agitation, recently enforced and strengthened by a renewed Igbo renaissance, looks to establish an Igbo country across historical "Igboland". This would mean that the areas peopled by the ethnic Igbo in rivers state remain of huge significance and consequence notwithstanding any prevailing conditions. And with the rest of the Igbo nation steeped on the northern, northeastern and eastern fringes of the state, it is increasingly likely that Biafran allegiance is set to sweep over the Igbo areas of the state. Whether from within or without. Another concerned ethnicity are the Andoni(Obolo), a small ethnicity found at the coast. The Andoni share cultural links with both the Igbo and Ibeno(Ibibio), and are also found in Akwa Ibom, present day Nigeria. To the North of the Andoni territory are the Ogoni, to the east and west are Opobo and Bonny respectively. And to the south is the Atlantic. Pix attached below. With their rather peculiar geographical location it is left to be seen where the Andoni find themselves post Nigeria. However joining up with the Ogoni to the north is unlikely as there happens to be a long history of strife between the two groups. The final group in focus are the Ogoni people. The now discarded NDR arrangement promised interdependence amongst ethnicities of the South South in areas where each group may come short, and with the binning of the idea the Ogoni may have been left in the lurch. The options on the Ogoni table would be to join the Ijaw nation to the west, though this may be considered unfavorable. On the alternative the Ogoni can choose to become an independent nation, bordered to the west by Ijaw republic, to the east by Ibom republic, to the north and northwest by Igboland and to the south by the Andoni. Of note is the fact that once the Andoni, Opobo and Bonny(all three highly unlikely to join the Ogoni) areas become part of neighboring republics the Ogoni who are further inland from the coast would become effectively landlocked. Pix attached. In the Ogoni area there is no major city centers or business cluster. However, they sit on considerable oil wealth and have a seaport domiciled in the Onne area of their land. Sailing to and fro without hassle however, would be dependent on smooth bilateral relations. The agriculture output is meagre from frequent oil spills. In this regard the nation would be dependent on neighboring countries for supply, which is also dependent on smooth bilateral relations. Naval force, if any, will be restricted. The area possesses a mid level tourism potential and HDI.
