tell me just one compound in those places that is named in igbo language?
all the compounds in those places are given Ijaw names.....
the thrones are called AMAYANABO an Ijaw name for throne and not eze or obi....
amayanabo mean owner of town.....
so why will an igbo throne be given an Ijaw name amayanabo?



Amayanabo means owner of town in my Kolokuma too.

Bring the video or call the persons name.

Alagoa was able to dance in his stupidity because at that time Ndigbo were more focused with rebuilding but now, we have you peoples time

Alagoa is even from Nembe that you guys are saying they are also Igbo.

See?
That is where you are wrong. We don't do kings.
Ubani was a bureaucratic Town during the day's of Pepple, Jaja etc. Hence the town was administered by influence of the trading houses (something you drunks corrupted to "war canoe houses", whatever that thing means)
I am even giving you all free history classes.


Until early 20th century, nobody called himself Amayanabo in any part of Ubani, Kalabari, Opobo and the likes.
Even Eze, Obi and the rest are all trash to us.

Ayebapirinye in Ibani Ijaw.
Mean what God gave.
It's same thing in my Kolokuma dialect in Bayelsa.
Or did you forget that Ibani people say their ancestors came from Isedani in Okoloba town in same Kolokuma clan that I came from.
Ayebapirinye is Kalabari of which was copied by those in Kolokuma. The piriye is Ijo.

Where did Bonny/Ubani people tell you they migrated from Kolokuma? Kolokuma that was not even existing when Bonny dominated trade in the bight of Biafra will suddenly birth Bonny? Is that not insanity? Did any European historian made mention of Kolokuma/Opokuma in their write up? The major people talked about in that axis where Brass, Nembe, Oru and Ijo/Ujo. Those who made Kolokuma/Opokuma relevant were Isaac Boro (Who was from there) and Prof. Alagoa who might secretly have his origin from there before his ancestors migrated to Nembe.

Kolokuma/Opokuma is the native home of Isaac Boro. And it was even through him that the area became popular. I want to believe it was there the Ijos drew their expansionist agenda in the 1800’s until Boro came to fulfil the prophecy in 1960’s. It was even from this belt that the Ijos began a mass migration into other areas of the Niger-Delta. Any wonder the Kolokuma/Opokuma was chosen as the central place to impose origin and main dialect on every Riverian community.

The era of falsifying the scam Kolokuma/Okpokuma origin on Bonny, Okrika and Kalabari is far spent. We are no longer in the analogue era when people just swallow every fairy tale hook, line and sinker. We are in the digital age. And anyone with question can just Google the internet to find first-hand history written from 1600 to 1900 by the European explorers. That was how you guys came up with the scam Perekule (Ijo name) that was swallowed by Bonny people until it was proven that Pepple came from Pepper and that Pepple went by his Igbo middle name Oruigbiji with origin from Ndoki.

You're totally ignorant!
Opobo people bear Igbo names and do virtually most things Igbos do culturally and they share a mutually intelligible language with us. However, on the other hand, they have absolutely nothing in common with you guys except your ridiculous attempts to force yourselves on them during the time of old Rivers.

Opobo people don't bear Ibo names,
Ibim or Ibiwari is not Ibo name.
Preye is not Ibo name.

So why are Opobo and Bonny people compulsorily learning Ibani Ijaw in primary and secondary school, and not Ibo?

They are learning Ubani language not Ijaw. You can fool others here by attaching "Ijaw" to the back like Fulani do with "Hausa-Fulani" not me.
It started after the war, displacing the name "Igbo Language". The same was done in Ikwerre areas at the same time.


Ok. In that Ubani language they learn, they call something "Ọlị" can you tell us what it is? Since their ancestors came from your compound as you alleged.

And for the record, "Brass is Brass" not Ijaw. The un calculated stupidity from Alagoa can't change the identity of thousands of Brass people because Alagoa is just one Ignorant man.

Can you drag what you own? If a person drags a property he owns, then it's fraud. Ijos have been the ones dragging Bonny since ages. Did you ever hear that Igbos forcefully land grabbed Bonny/Opobo? Please tell me who did the following in Bonny and we’ll know the real land grabbers.

1. Who forcefully committed genocide in Bonny, Opobo during the civil war all in a ploy to force a people to change their identity?

2. Who forcefully with the aid of Fombo changed the “NSO, NSO, NSO” in Bonny Anglican Cathedral to Ibani (Kalabari dialect).

3. Who tried to eliminate the Kings and notable personalities in Bonny/Opobo as threats to Ijaw ownership in 1967?

4. Who fraudulently brought the idea of reviving Ibani as Bonny aboriginal language and went on to impose it? Even going as far to stylishly appeal to Bonny people to stop speaking Bonny dialect but Ibani instead.

5. Who instigated Bonny people to start changing their history from Ndoki origin to reverse migration from Kolokuma/Opokuma?

6. Who implemented the ban on Igbo Bible and literatures in Bonny?

7. Who introduced the idea of calling Bonny families with Igbo names and heritage slaves imported from the hinterland. Even going to the extent of calling notable figures like Oko Jumbo, Jaja, and a host of other houses freed slaves from Igboland in order to prove that everything Igbo in Bonny came as slaves? They even went to the extent of removing Igbo aboriginal links in Bonny to the extent of changing them to look Ijoid. The name Perekule is a great example.

The truth is that Ijos from Bayelsa carried out the first onslaught on Bonny, Opobo and other communities during and after the civil war. Igbo are only starting the Part 2 of the first movie by Ijos. The Part 3 is yet to even commence.

Lol, the person didn't know that a time will come when children will ask their Fathers questions? I bet he didn't know that the real name of Pepple was saved in the British Library. If there's one thing Ndigbo should thank Britain, is by keeping the earliest history of the Niger-Delta intact.

No one would have imagined that a day like this will arise when minority landgrabbers and their allies will plan to supplant Igbo origin and links to tribes in the Niger-Delta.

You hit the nail. Just like in other parts of Igboland, Kingship was introduced into Bonny by the British. What Bonny had initially was elders and Okpara (First sons) leading their houses and community. Okpara Ndoli was a typical example.

I read somewhere where it was reported that Halliday and Asimni shared power. Halliday was senior to Asimini. However, Asimini by virtue of his military might and after his success in the war with Andoni, finally supplanted Halliday from the headship, and even exiled him until his return. But this time making peace with Asimini and relinquishing his headship to Bonny.

Asimini invented the idea of War Canoe houses of which he brought in from Kalabari. Bonny at that time needed to defend her trade interest and it was paramount she choose a military leader. Asimini would go on to become the first King of Bonny. The hereditary Kinship in Bonny began from him, any wonder his lineage continued in that stead. Pepple is from Asimini bloodline.

"whatever name they call the language whether Ubani," Ibani", bonny or even bonga fish language, na still Igbo them they teach because whatever they teach or learn there, an average Igbo will still understand it"
