Gibberish from an Abakaliki man

PH is an Ikwerre land

You biaflans can't try the madness una dey do in your poto poto region in Rivers State, the ones wey try am for Oyigbo paid dearly with their lifes. Hundreds of IPOB miscreants were massacred by the Army and Ikwerres were fully in support of the army.

On the street of PH, this debate can't even happen.
[s]Ikwerre is an indigenous group in Nigeria just like the igbos
Ikwerres were so happy when Rivers State was created in 1967[/s].

True, the debate does not happen in Igweocha because the people of Igweocha KNOW that they are 100% Igbo. This is why not a single one of them supported Wike's statement.

The only ethnic group that is a modern Identity in Nigeria is Yoruba
I don't need to go too deep in history but bring to your notice that out of all the groups related to the majority found in Western Nigeria, only in Nigeria does the group go with the name "Yoruba" which arguably is a corruption of the Hausa word "Yáriba" of not more than 200 years ago

Investigative:
[s]This Ikwere confusion was a cunning construct of the British tondilute and water down Igbo strength and control after they suffered harshly in the hands of Jaja of Opobo.

Before then, the entire South Sourh was 60-70 % Igbo all the way to Bonny. Bonny has a string Indigenous Igbo people. Even Ijaw and Bayelsa. All of Port Harcourt, etc.

Now what is divide and rule?

Divide and rule is a cunning way of making inciting hatred among blood brothers so as to cause infighting and suspicion and thereby weaken them

If you do not know...the entire Igbo land..from Nsukka I to Kogi..from Ebonyi into Calabar..Ikom, Akamkpa, Bonny, Omoku, PH, Kalabari, are largely Igbos who had different migratory routes. Just as you have the Obigbo region mainly guys from Imo River areas, etc.

The Brits smartly would lie to everyone that Igbos are domineering and all what not, to make them hate each other and fight themselves.

Also the psychological effect of slavery and civil war.

When you're being killed bevmcause of your name..you have to change it to survive.

It happened in the Mid West where the Igbemudia, and others who are Igbos of Ika ancestry suddenly said they're not Igbos. Even Ukwuani,l who are clearly Igbos, Some parts of Benin, and Agbor..umunnede who's Igbo origins are even stringer than those in Enugu would all wake up and deny their identity.

Remember in those days there were no boundaries as such. Groups of persons can wake up and travel to a foreign empty land and begin to farm and fish. Al these confusion was created by the Brits to dilute the strength of a United Igbo nation.

Records would shock you to discover that Igbos are the largest number of ethnic Africans in the entire world. We're everywhere. Even in Panya. Guinea. Almost ubiquitous. The ones suffering from shame and identity is just transient cos once the rise of Igbo happens again, they'd all come rushing back to claim their place as sons of the soil.

Don't worry yourself so much about their amnesia. They know who they are. They know they're Igbos.[/s]

Bonny n Opobo are Ijaw territories. Nothing you write here or say here wud change that.
Bonny n Opobo don't bear Ibo names, their villages don't have Ibo names.
They address their king as Amanyanabo and not Eze or Obi.
Bonny n Opobo people are good swimmers, ibos are scared of water.
Jaja was an Ibo man.....Yes
Jaja named the town he found Opobo, was that an Ibo name....,No
Jaja has children....Yes, do they have Ibo names...No
Is there any Ibo youth group in bonny or opobo, No.
Is there Ijaw youth groups in bonny n Opobo, Yes.
Do Bonny n Opobo people see themselves as ibo, No.
Do they see themselves as Ijaw...Yes
Has the OP seen any Ibo man from bonny or Opobo.....No. Cos no such person exist.

In conclusion, Bonny n Opobo territories are Ijaws.

Your first mistake is using the Word "ikwerre" what is ikwerre? The Igbo people are not limited the 5 eastern states. Nobody want to identify with you guys. There are Igbos everywhere in Nigeria and other African countries. Stop the ownership of the Igbo origin. Just like the Yoruba, Fulani,Nupe, ijaws, Benis. etc. So eastern Nigeria should stop the nonsense of ownership of others.

I, as IGBO, have never engaged myself with who is Yoruba or who is not Yoruba: that is for the Yoruba to decide. How Nigerians, including Yoruba and the mainstream media(driven largely by Igbophobia) poke their noses into who is IGBO and who is not IGBO beats my imagination. The IGBO are found on the two banks of the River Niger. Every IGBO is original. Every IGBO republic (Obodo) is
autonomous and equal to the other.


Crude oil in the Niger Delta is reason why SW and north divide the old Eastern region in other to separate Ikwerre and other non Igbo speaking areas in the SS from Igbos.
