Ikwerre is more than ijaws here and its not debatable, we still have the Ogonis and other tribes, so there is no way we can make 60% and other tribes share 40%

Nigeria population is 200m, if Ijaw is more than 20m that means out of every 10persons, u will find one ijaw.

U know what this means? Every neighbourhood has an ijaw person, there is at least 50 ijaws in ever street assuming a street has 700persons

no deh disgrace urself na.

I am Rivers state and we aren't 60%, we are second most populous after Ikwerre, we can't be 60% and still be second most populous

You are not from Rivers State, lol. No Rivers person will insinuate that the Ikwerre are the most populous in Rivers State. Every Rivers person knows Ogoni people are the most numerous in that state. Ikwerre just get landmass.

u may want to check gubernatorial election results and see the number of votes the ikwerre has in Rivers state, if they don't, then its cool but I live where Ikwerres dominate sha and I haven't been to a place where Ogoni dominate except Gokana Kana etc

I should throw away population census and accept ur own just because of the three local govt areas wey u don travel abi grin

Census should have been individual count but even if they used statistics, its still better than ur own figure.

Oga, we are not more than 20million

This is my last reply to u cos I don tire for ur matter but we the ijaws are not up to 20million, u can only find ijaws in South south and very few in SW and SE, we almost does not exist in northern Nigeria especially the core north, so how can we be 20million.

no need for that, common sense should tell u that a multi ethnic state like Rivers, one tribe can't get 60% population and the other numerous states should get only 40%

The groups i mention are in their ancestry lands which is in Rivers state, they identified with their ijaw roots.
If you are not a uneducated,dumb baboon, from a worthless and good for nothing criminal tribe,you will know that those clans i mention are proud of their ijaw heritage and wants nothing to do with unwanted Okoro monkeys from israel grin

Worthless Ijo barracuda looking pipeline bursting ape, whether you like it or not, you Ijo sewage rats whose environments and oyel have been converted into the porn industry and semen disposal of Nigeria are inconsequential migrants in Rivers state. That's why you Lilliputians have remained politically irrelevant in Rivers state since the last decades, your only homeland is your tiny shithole of a state in Bayelsa, know this and know peace you subhuman.

I can easily list JUST 10 Igbo global icons who have achieved far more than the entire pathetic ijaw apes even at their best all put together, what I'm basically saying is that I can easily list 10 Igbos who are more famous than the best of the whole Ijo nation.

Ijaws are 7states
Ijaws are not seven state, Ijaws are so inconsequential in Edo state numerically, Even in Delta state, the largest group there are the Urhobos, then the Ukwuanis before ijos and others. It is not by having one, two sparsely populated communities in every state and saying you are in Every state in the south south.
What ward do you control, what local government do you control? what senatorial do you control convincingly, Even Delta south, you share with the Itsekiris and Isokos .
The Ijaws would stagger with seven million in total population, there is no way you can be more than Ibibios in population not now not ever

It's too early for this nonsense.

Firstly, from my experience in this Lagos so far, The Hausas are second most populous.

Fulani at 15million are the fourth, TIV, Ijaw, Nupe in that order
Fulani 15 Million in Nigeria?

I think all the riverine ethnic groups in Rivers State consider themselves as Izon people.
The Kalabaris, Okrikas, Ibanis( Bonny),Opobos, and the Andonis.
Do you think the Ikwerres are more than the Izon speaking people in Rivers State?

mumu what males one to travel is to get daily food or business.... then why should Ijaws leave the oil business and travel?

how did you count bayelsa and delta population?

Ijaws largest blocks are rivers bayelsa and delta... then Ijaws are edo ondo akwa ibom...

what did you even used to count the exact populations of nigeria?

who can travel into sea and creeks to count all Ijaws?
Ijaws are more than 20million

There are so many things you are ignorant of. Update yourself so the world doesn't leave you behind.
