HOW IJAWS ARE MARGINALIZED IN ONDO STATE.



Ijaw people also known as Ijo or Izon are people in Niger Delta in Nigeria, inhabiting states like Ondo, Bayelsa, Delta, Akwa-Ibom, Edo, Rivers States.



Many are found as migrants fishermen camps as far west as Sierra Leone and far east as Gabon.

The ijaw-Apoi indigenes of arogbo community in Ese-odo local government of ondo state have always complained of marginalization in the distribution of social amenities.


Recently ondo state Governor Rotimi Akeredolu inaugurated an 11 man committee members for the creation of local council development areas in the state without including a single ijaw person in the committee to represent the interest of the ijaw nation in ondo state.

Due to the lack of political space and limited Economic opportunities The ijaw people in Delta, Edo, and ondo state which represent the Western part of the oil rich Niger Delta region asked the federal government to create Toru-Ebe state inorder to end the perceived marginalisation.

Failure to do this we go for Ijaw Republic.

Hmmm what is going on

This is not the solution though..

Supported.
The marginalization is not good.

This Toru-Ebe map is not correct enough.
The Ijaw Empire map is better.
My Gbaramatu Clan is large and Itsekiri did not gum us so close.
Ijaw Empire map or map 3 is the most correct one.
