Abohboy:you mean the same people that supported Pantami? The same ones that are murdering UNIJOS students for just being students and Christians? About time you quit that messianic complex |

Abohboy:This is why I don't Bleep with Pan-Africanism. A society that defends terrorists and take it as an attack on them you want educate. If a society wants to self destruct, so be it. It's your job to build a wall and keep them off from corrupting yours. A society that bans mannequin 'cause they're sexually attracted to it. Tụfịakwa!!! Ọbụrụ ọgwụ ọ maghị ere. |

SirBlack999:When did I say we would leave the terrorists? We squash the terrorists and educate the people concerning Hisbah a new constitution can be drafted banning it's control and influence on the people once the people are educated they won't be controlled fully by their religion |
| Re: The Aboh Are The Most Powerful People In The Middle And Lower Niger by SirBlack999(m): 1:08pm On Aug 23, 2021 |
Abohboy:Leave Pan-Africanism and realistic. The same terrorists the NA has been trying to squash? Recently Pantami was ousted as a terrorist sympathiser and I won't be surprised if he is not the only person. Like I said, your society should be your priority, protect it |

AfricanColumbus:The so-called "war canoes" associated with ijaw are not really canoes mounted with cannons but ceremonial canoes. Aboh was a powerful kingdom which controlled the lower Niger. |

Abohboy:The FG allegedly profits and the society has no problem with them. You as another society are culturally different from them. Protect yourself |

Idiko1:So in essence, war canoe use was integral to some Igbo societies? Why is such a key practice hardly mentioned? |

Abohboy:That artist impression is the illustration of portuguese traders entering benin river to trade with Itsekiri Chiefs in Warri. That is not Onitsha. Historically, Aboh is a settlement of priests, kinda like a monastery. It did not start as a trading post, it evolved into one. |

ImperialYoruba:Village urchin say what you know na . Have you been to Aboh before or travelled outside that small hut you stay . Aboh is a settlement of priests? What is wrong with you . Aboh was the first to chase away white men when they noticed fowl play . Their canon gun is still present in Aboh. They have oniebukwu quarter , Ogbukwu quarter and all . The king is Obonwa or so when we traveled there. You said Aboh did not start as a trading post is a pure lie. Back then traders flocked in from ndoni, Abi,Utchi, Abalagada. To buy from Aboh and move it down to the Niger / onitsha to be moved . Their trading made the white men visit Aboh and settled there till there began rubbish and was chased away. Oil and other stuffs was later discovered which made the Government picked intrest in Aboh and a long road was constructed to link Kwale. Today Aboh has 24/7 light (electricity) |

Opintiwa:Enugu was formed by whitemen. Its history is tied to colonial periods, therefore there is no history in Enugu that predated whitemen. Aboh is different, a priest settlement that existed long before whitemen. Aboh was a sacred land, as typical of holylands, trade evolved and it became a cross-road for travelers. Let Aboh people deny it. |

BRIEF HISTORY OF ABOH By oral history, Aboh indigenes are Binis by origin. In 1480 AD Obazoeme, otherwise known as Esumei-Uku, the son of Oba Ozolua of Benin migrated with some of his followers from Benin to found the town of Aboh. Obazoeme alias Esumei Uku was the founder of Aboh. He had two sons, Ogwezi and Ugbo. Ogwezi had many children, three of whom in addition to himself, became the heads of the four quarters in Aboh. They also constitute the ruling houses in Aboh up to this day. They are Ojugbeli, Ogwezi, Ossai and Ozegbe. The kings of Aboh, unlike the tradition in Benin, retain their names after ascending the throne. Succession to the throne also does not follow the rule of primogeniture. During the migration movement from Benin to the present day Aboh, two major oppositions were encountered during the course of establishing the town. First was the Iwele people who were of the Itsekiri stock and the Akarais. After overcoming the challenge of opposition through fierce battles, the Benin immigrants took possession of the land, blessed with the knowledge of Benin architecture, they built Benin-like houses and constructed roads in the new town. They also took advantage of the nearness of the River Niger to practice swimming, canoe paddling and fishing. The Aboh Kingdom is divided into two distinct races. The UMUDEI who descend from Ogwezi, the son of Esume and first Obi of Aboh and the NDICHE who are considered the ” non royals “. The Ndiche are of mixed origin. They also include the aboriginals. — with Hon Ejeke Lucky Onyema. Below is the scientific proof in cultural anthropology that Aboh are not Ibos as they do not eat human beings. https://www.facebook.com/nwadandokwaculturalpageant/photos/brief-history-of-abohby-oral-history-aboh-indigenes-are-binis-by-origin-in-1480-/1542175712548088/ Below is the scientific proof in cultural anthropology that Aboh are not Ibos as they do not eat human beings.

ImperialYoruba:Below is a map of Ndokwa with Aboh as capital. Aboh was never for one day a holy land / sacred land you are saying it as if Aboh people were timid before the trade you are referring to . Look at the map and ask yourself how can somewhere like this with bordering tribes around be timid and just evolve into trade no be only sacred na grave yard .
