paramakina202: Stop saying that the name Biafra was given by Portuguese sailors. The name Biafra was chosen by representatives of the 20 provinces that made up the old Eastern Region, in Enugu, in May 1967. Indigenous people chose the name But no indigenous person was with Lugard or his girlfriend Flora Shaw, when they came up with the name "Nigeria", then came down to West Africa to rain bullets and bombs on the indigenes so as to impose that name on them. As for those who want Biafra and those who do not, thats what referendum is for. 3 Likes |

Abohboy: Ijaws are mainly Ghanaians who came to Niger Delta with the Portuguese. They were porters. They migrated from the coast of Ashanti in ghana in an Eastward direction to the coasts of Gabon transporting the whites and settling along the coasts mixing with indigenous tribes there. That's the hidden history of Ijaws. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Ariani: Yeah! They are far gone... Although you could still see some of the Igbo features on some of them but for most you could tell they are far gone. Although, those my contacts spoke Igbo and their father even dress in Igbo attire and their surname is "Ogbonnaya".. their children who are now adults can't even explain how they could speak Igbo nor the reason why their surname is "Ogbonnaya"... and truthfully, they are too small and could easily be absorbed into a bigger group. 2 Likes |

Ariani: That can't be true simply for the fact that there would be Ijaw population in Ghana but there isn't there's no such thing as an ethnic group leaving their homeland to help transport slaves and in any case the Portugese only initially mentioned meeting the Itsekiri and the Urhobo, contact with the Ijaws came much later. 1 Like |

Abohboy: That's the true history of Izon. They were described by the Portuguese as the "people of jos". Ijaw claim to originating from Nigeria is hinged on indigenous tribes like Obulom, Udekeme, Ogbia, etc they met on ground and linked themselves with. But all those indigenous groups have languages fitting into the indigenous YEAII language of Southern Nigeria or the Cross- River cluster language group. Whereas Izon language sticks out like a malignant cell with no link to these groups. 6 Likes |

Ariani: Never knew that Chibudom Nwuche is Ekpeye-Igbo. Seriously, how can one bear a name like that and someone will still have the effrontery to question whether he is Igbo or not?? Can one bear a name like Olusegun Obasanjo without everyone knowing he is Yoruba or can one bear Nsikak Akpan without it showing he is Ibibio? Why all these attempts at breaking Igbos apart? Is it because we lost a civil war or what?? 6 Likes |

Ariani:did you forget when Abia state sacked workers simply because they are from Enugu? You said you don't want to be forced to be Nigerian but you want to force others to be igbos. Why? Ironsi and Ojukwu nearly kill Adaka Boro when he wanted to be on his own, but years later Ojukwu also wanted to be on his own. What a hypocrite! 1 Like |

proeast: Nobody stopped us from working on reunification of Igboland. Those groups will come on board if they see genuine effort at unification from SE, bankrolled by a formidable Igbo nationalistic movement, whose presence would be felt in terms of community projects and Political empowerment of these communities by bankrolling them against other minorities. We haven't evolved such group. IPOB was a waste of time with their Multiethnic Babelian Biafra Agenda, no Igboid group in SS would accept that, they already know what it feels like sharing a region with minorities. The less said about Ohanaeze Ndiigbo, the better. They (Igbo pocket communities scattered in all 6 SS states) will come on board with SE when they sense strong purposeful leadership in SE built on Igbo empowerment and squashing of any group, be they minorities or majority standing on our way.

Miracle2020: Abia governors who are Fulani stooges, who don't believe in Igbo republic and who don't subscribe to Igbo independence from Nigeria. Do not represent the aspirations of Ndi Abia! They represent the wishes of their Gambari masters and as you can see, Igbos don't regard the so called governors because we know they don't represent our interests. Read the above again to assimilate better! Adaka Boro was an ingrate who was working with Balewa and Saraduna to destabilize the East. Today with Harold Dipriye, Boro was bankrolled by the North to destabilize the East because Balewa was angry about Tiv and Jos riots against the Caliphate and accused Ndiigbo of supporting the Northern minorities to destabilize the North. Boro was a short sighted Ijaw who went to Ghana to recruit his Ijaws kinsmen and committed genocide against Igbos indigenous to Bonny and Opobo. In due time, we will repay that debt. Boro was killed by his Arewa masters after they were done using him. https://www.nairaland.com/6604357/betrayed-adaka-boro 3 Likes 1 Share |
