Ever carried out a real life opinion survey, on some of the topics being discussed here?.

Well out of curiosity, I did last night.

Not really that I'd wanted to, just by happenstance, I did.

I pulled over, to make a quick withdrawal from a POS machine, lo and behold, a very beautiful dark skinned lady, with a large ifedi behind, immediately, I got attracted to her, her name is Belema, and it turned out she's Okrika lady from Rivers State, and everything transpired in between the short period we discussed, and we found ourselves having dinner at "Choppee" a popular sit-out in the city of Eket.

Okrika 'Ijaw' lady, a POS attendant in Eket?.

Well, discussions ensued, nothing was off the table.
But u took a particular interest on her tribe. Why? Because I've not dated any ijaw girl before, and infact I never met any ijaw girl outside Rivers State and Bayelsa. I do see Ijaw guys though.

Note I was referring to her as Ijaw, but I didn't outrightly call her Ijaw in the cause of all our discussions, until I said, WOW, I've never dated Ijaw girl before. And responded, who's Ijaw girl?.
I said but you said you're Okrika, and she said of course, and I said from all I've been reading from Ijaw folks on Nairaland, Okrika is Ijaw.
Belema thundered what sort of rubbish is that, Okrika is Okrika, we're not anybody. I asked her. I'd loved to invite her to Nairaland but she's currently using small phone.

You people always magnify things out of nothing.

During my university days I have stayed, eat and dine with many okrika people. Even today I have many as friends

People have their beliefs on who they are and what they want to be.

Stop making mole hill out of nothing because you are on nairaland.

Views are divergent.

Igbo people and their desperation! Mr man Okrika is an ijaw clan, and that will never change.
That belema is an igbo girl claiming to be from Okrika.

Okrika Na second hand clothe

I grew up in ph. Okrika is not ijaw. Their language isn't even similar...lol

What should we do about this now @OP?

Some Nairaland members an unnecessary talk sha.

If Okrika is not part of Ijaw land, Wetin make we com do about am?

all these those ibou youths online are you not tired of lying and formulating stories?

I remember @vintagepipes, posted this excerpt from a book from 120 years ago.
The real okirika people know they are not Ijaw of course.
CC: @vintagepipes.

Okrika is confirmed Ijaw clan.... you people are too desperate....

All these territory claims and counter claims should make you all realize that nothing is ever going to happen to the structure called "Nigeria"

Let everyone just come together and salvage it together. Nothing MEGA!

My name is Precious Gudi, I'm from Abuloma, in Okrika Ijaw.
No sane Wakirike (Okrika) man, woman, boy or girl, that will say such abominable thing, that Okrika is not Ijaw.
Ibo and their desperation.
We are full blooded Ijaws.

We will soon carry out a complete deconstructuon of the history and ethnography of the Okrika people. We all know they are Igbo descended though.

Any Okrikan who said that he or she is igbo is a theif, a criminal and a bloody liar cause we don't speak igbo, we don't bear igbo names, we don't practice igbo culture so how exactlty are we igbos? Igbo land grabber?

You must be!

These Ijaw people can claim anything in Africa.
That is how An ijaw man in my area claimed that Ogoja people are ijaws.
The government needs to do something before these ogogoro drinkers claim the whole south.

They said their ancestors... Get some education... That's an ethnographic work done in 120 years ago. Can't you read?

The book still exist in historical libraries.
@Vintagepipes

Today, maybe not, but this is documented history.

wakirike gbese
I rep owudo / okilo road axis

The presence of those Igboid Ijo tribes viz Okirika,Ụbanị dgz in Rivers State is the reason why the Ijo are hellbent on claiming Ndọkị, kos that if Ndọkị doesn't come into their fold, they've no grip on these two tribes

Ijaw and confusion claiming other people.can ijaw people tell me what this group names mean in ijaw language

Sense is far from you.

Does Ebonyi people or ohafia people and Anambra people have the same language. ??
They are Ibos but the Anambra language n that of ohafia are they similar??

Know this, Okrikans are Ijaw.
I tot you n the OP wud say the girl is Ibo.

Another day another thread about the Ijaws.
Man has problem in his region but the culture and language of others are his concern.

Like I will always say, this noise and rant ends here.
No such okrikan wud say they aren't Ijaws.

So in conclusion, I wud say make una continue to make jest of unaself, I am here to watch.

you're beginning to sound pretty much frustrated. Are you saying she doesn't have the right to identity?.
