that is why I do not criticise IPOB too much, the reason being that IPOB is by far the most determined,focused and resourceful Igbo dominated association today bar none! I pray that if and when Nnamdi Kanu is released by FG ,Pa mbazuluike Amaechi will persuade him to finally enter Igbo politics...............if properly focused on igbo nationalism......IPOB is a whale of an adversary! those guys have their tentacles everwhere.....MNK will have to convince his men that igbo nationalism is the way to go!

SlayerForever:



Okay, excellent.

Then we will need a write up. A well articulated writeup centred around the discoveries on this thread.

After the writeup is ready there'll be need for dissemination.


What do you think?

Pass11:

Nwanne m we are moving forward, ohaneze youth council for igbo benue chapter as been introduced

Putindbutt:


Dry up your tears. I guess when ibos came, they forgot their clothes and culture attire in amaigbo and were forced to make do of foreign attire.

We are still waiting when the royal palace in Bonny and Opobo will start wearing isiagu. Abi e never due to dey wear ibo isiagu and throw away Ijaw identity?

RobbStark:


Slayerforever is my friend, so I will name him Tamunoibim.....God is Good
Or he may like Ibiwari.....Good house

SlayerForever:


That's a very good start. I was about mentioning you here to know if you're following this thread.

It seems you've been working behind the scenes. It's been a while we spoke.

BKayy:

On point. A good writer is needed. It would have been Alex.Bells but I doubt if the dude would like to help considering his philosophy on Igbo integrity.
We need another volunteer

BKayy:

They have used the current Nigerian Niger Delta map to override it in Google search engine but some of us still have it.

It will take me time to go through my old hard drives and get it.

I still remember that Bonny and Opobo were not included in his map. The map was more like present Bayelsa state and a very little part of Delta and inch of Rivers.

Pass11:

Yes I am following the thread and you guys are doing great work here.I'm happy that ohanaeze has recognized indigenous Igbo in Benue state, the next step maybe our people in kogi state. I'm planning of gathering all these documents here and send it to the Ohaneze youth president let me see what he can do.

SlayerForever:



Enyị́ one carton of o mpa for you.

BKayy:

On point. A good writer is needed. It would have been Alex.Bells but I doubt if the dude would like to help considering his philosophy on Igbo integrity.
We need another volunteer

Vintagepipes:


...I believe I have a read a few things from this individual

...He possess the passion but not the knowledge or intelligence for this task.

... A bit too emotional.

....He pandered to them, not experienced and I don't know if he is willing to learn.


..I believe Igboid is an ideal person. He writes well, and have all the facts and understand them deeply.

However, his anti-MNK stance might cause a clash with him and you know our brothers if maturity is not employed.

SlayerForever:




Lolllllll.


Ị can write anything writable. I'll just gather the facts presented here and compile all. Igboid can write it if he wishes. I don't think there'll be any Biafranist clash here lol. It's just a historical writeup.

Then will the volunteer be writing as a group or as an individual. If as a group what group. Igwebuike? Igbo youths intelligentsia? Igbo new generation?


Whatever will be written will have to be vetted here.

Then afterwards, very importantly, how will dissemination be done?

Alabo7978:
lol, confusion in the camp of drug dealing land grabbers.
do you know how many Eze'ndigbo they have all over Nigeria?
eze'ndigbo Lagos, Eze'ndigbo ogun, Eze'ndigbo Ondo.
The igbos are known travelers, entering everywhere uninvited.
they wanted to do that at cross river (Eze'ndigbo of Cross river) the cross river traditional rulers agressively halted it.
if care is not taken, 9pluto, Ekealterego, Igboid, Bkayy, SlayerForever of the future in 400 years time will claim the igbos owned those states.

igbos who don't have affinity to water, who dread the swamp and mangroves now suddenly claiming to be Water people.
Father lord!
Igbos who were slaves in Bonny just as pepple and crowther said.
igbos who were given freedom by Asimini because they showed they aided him in war.

funny enough, land grabbing clowns never want to talk about the ijoh enculturating ritual. (I will write a thread about THE ENCULTURATING RITUAL) where certain rites and spiritual practices are carried out before the spirits to change a person's ancestral identity.
if ijohs weren't the land lord, why were igbos enculturated
Ekealterego, 9pluto etc answer.

why were there enculturating rituals performed on Igbo slaves??
infact the igbos should stop seeing Jaja as Igbo anymore, he swore before the spirits, cleansed his blood, renounce his ancestry and tribe, even his name to be JUBO JUBOGHA.
that alone is big prove that the ijos were the owners, lord and master of the Igbos, and bonny.


captain8 Putindbutt ditaridesciple2
how about we think of names to rename our slaves?

I earlier renamed Ekealterego OTONYE DOMOKUMA
9pluto, SlayerForever Igboid biafrarep bkayy needs to be renamed ASAP.
we need to enculturate them like our ancestors did.

ThickSharon123:


Mtcheww.. I said you're sounding like a broken record biko... This Ijaw socio-cultural organization is becoming stale. They can come out anytime.i believe if an Igbo community comes you'll accept them, so stop saying Ijaw socio-cultural organization, it's so bland.

Malawian:

When these idiots say "Subgroup" of the Ijaws, you begin to wonder who the "Main group" is.

Igboland will arise one final time and I pity all our neighbors who have stolen from us using the power of the Nigerian state.

OfoIgbo:


But Equiano noted that cocoayam was EDEA (EDE) in his native language and that his dad was an EMBRENCHE (MGBURU-ICHI). This clearly meant he was Igbo

Ekealterego:

Do not go to their group with these materials. rather identify the ones who know their history. There are loads of them. They should be the ones reading this.

GreatBoss:
All Ibo frustrations here does not change anything physical.
All Ibani-Ijaw people (Bonny, Ndoki, Opobo) come with their Ijaw relations to Ijaw Republic.
We've accepted the request of the Aminadokiari (Ndoki) Ijaw leaders to be added to Ijaw Republic.
The new Ijaw Central dialect being worked on in preparation for Ijaw Republic.
Will end that nonesense Igbo speaking in all these areas.

9Pluto:


Please, stop wasting time and energy on that guy. His plans are obvious. This thread isn't about Equiano(The same one whose Breeche background connected to my post here). This is about Bonny and Opobo. I am shocked that till this moment I haven't seen one single counter literature, just ONE. If anything this thread has shown that there is an obvious attempt at revisionism and it is extending to Obollo. Akwa-ibom people should be put on notice. They better stay woke. Already, my Akwa-ibom friend said there are parts of the coast they cannot access currently because of the ijaws. Someone should put the government on notice.

Vintagepipes:


There are enough proof to show that Wa-Creek people, have sections of them from Igbo.

However, we can only identify you as Igbo strictly if you speak Igbo....

BUUUTTTT, it is important to point out ancestory and links too.

I even saw the historical proof uploaded here on this thread....

BKayy:

No, Isseke in Ihiala LGA of Anambra state.
The only part that is off from History is the Bini part

makemoneywbsite:

It is possible that Olauda Ekwuanu got the Benin idea after years of perusing maps of Africa in England or even while serving in a merchant ship. Possibly, the Benin empire was at its peak and he used his knowledge of geography to link his homeland as being close to the burgeoning empire of the Binis.

Malawian:

If only these findings can be made into a documentary and shared freely in Bonny/Opobo by way of DVDs. Ijaws will take the next boat going to Gbamatatum in the dead of the night.
Igbos really need to invest in Media. We are lagging behind a lot there.

makemoneywbsite:

Can someone post AkwaIbom Facebook groups so that we put them at alert on the antecedence of this tribe of pirates and land grabbers?

makemoneywbsite:

So you need a central dialect to end indigenous languages such as Igbo? It is interesting that I served in Kalabari and from what I observed, they are not even Ijaw despite your claims. So who are you guys? Who is Ijaw if you're co-opting every ethnic group into your tribe?

ebufa:





Leave nairaland idle banter, Igbo get people! all sorts of people for that matter! The day Ijaws make the error of attacking Igbos, we will cure their madness wella.........let ijaw braggadocio remain online o! Igbos that have taken on almajiris in kano and bested them,fought all Nigerians with one arm tied behind our backs by Great Britain for a bloody 30 months civil war, taken on fulani herdsmen and their army accomplices since January and forced a stalemate!................Igbos are not itshekiris o,it will end in bitter tears for ijaw people.
