Some Nigerians are too comfortable speaking on Igbo affairs. Notice how all the comments are all minorities that have nothing to do with the discussion.
Notice that the people here on this thread pushing the agenda are from the SW. I swear the way these guys brains operate baffles me to no end. As in you will wake up and start fishing for threads on the origin of people outside of your ethnic group? It makes me understand how serious these guys take this thing called 'Nigerian politics'. They will embrace the devil himself if it helps their political 'agenda'.

What's the true population of the Igbos, it's seems to have been underestimated from all I have read so far.
There's a case being made that Igbos are the second most populous in Nigeria(behind Hausa which is debatable today). But that's a thread for another day.

The Vice Presidential candidate of the PDP is from the Agbor area. Agbor is nearer to Benin than Asaba. He has told you whom he is.
Every part of igboland from Rivers to Benue.., from Akwa Ibom to Edo, will all be brought back into the fold no matter what it takes.
By fire by force!
If you're against that, the be getting ready for war

You are just a foolish kid who still collect monthly allow from his parent. No need arguing with you. Continue insulting your parent, not me. I know your type. When they can’t prove a point they result to throwing insults but I will school you a bit. The demarcation between East and South is the river Niger Bridge! Get that into your fragile and empty skull.
Shut up olodo. Asaba is Igbo. Just like Okun in Kogi State is Yoruba. Asaba has an origin long before Abacha created the meaningless South-South!

ASABA IS IGBO!

South South are the Ethnic Minorities Of Southern Nigeria they

Were given their own Region-to protect them from Domination by the Bigger Tribes


They are happy with the arrangement and are not complaining
The Nigerian constitution only recognises 3, tribes. The other smaller tribes are living with the either the bigger tribes. Example the fulanis are small Tribes but living in the land of the northern tribe Hausa. So as other tribes. So as other small Tribes in the east, are loving the bigger tribe the ibos. There is nothing like south south. We only have the east. And every bing and small tribe live together in the east.

No. I'm South South.
My dear, I will like you to know that the use of regionalism that is different from what our founding fathers of the nation knew is actually a tool to divide and rule us.

In geography there's nothing like South South. Even in English it is meaningless. But it has been used to tag us just to create a sense of division.

This political tool has effectively been used to subjugate the entire southern Nigeria. Even our brother GEJ couldn't win a second term and was kicked out even though he was a sitting president.

Let's wake up.

The majority of Asaba people speak Igbo. That's enough evidence.

God punish you and Benin Empire

The British conquered the Ekumeku warriors and lumped Anioma with the wicked Yorubas knowing fully well we're Igbos.
After experiencing first class marginalization at the hands of Awo and Akintola, Osadebay mobilized and got the Mid-West.
The same Osadebay was one of the founding fathers of the Igbo State Union.
The Nigerian Army carried out a genocide on the Ahaba people because of our Igbo ancestry.
Never you repeat that nonsense again
Thief.nubu cum dump
So, in essence the Benin Empire was created by the British?

There is a big History as to why the SS Tribes were given their own Region . In 1967

a Certain General with a Magnificently Shaped Head, Sent his Army to Kidnap almost all of them

Into his newly formed breakaway Country and it took a War to rescue them

That General later fled to the Ivory Coast In the end

He had at one point Claimed he had granted the Midwest Tribes independence

by imposing a Certain Major Okonkwo on them as their new President

before the FG Army recaptured it

Since that experience SS Ethnic Groups have been the most Weary Of being lumped with the bigger Tribes

They cannot even Stomach it

You guys always trying to claim everything that don't belong to you.

Why can't you develop your tiny region ?
Sardauna Ahmadu Bello already warned everybody about that behaviour

A Place doesn’t belong to you and you are still trying to Monopolise it as part of your Ancestral Lands

Why only South South?
Biggest fraud is when An Ifeanyi or Chibuike say He is not Igbo.
But Everyone called Taiwo know He is Yoruba.
Every musa know he is an Hausa.

You are upset about ijaws! It's not ijaw fault that you land grabbing, unwanted lost, Israelites are so hell bent in stealing other people's lands,all because you can't live in that your potor potor, red mud, backwards, south east enclaved.
Hehehehehe grin grin grin

See one purporting to be Ijaw accusing Ndigbo of ‘wanting to steal other peoples land….or OPP for short’ (a shout out to the 90s music lovers out there wink )! Dude, are you serious!? Oya, mention the specific land Ndigbo are in the process of ‘stealing’ and tell us the exact process they’re using to steal them!

I think you bigots problem is that you get furious when anyone questions the criminal state creations and anti-Igbo federal gov’t practices and policies that were rife in the late 60s/early 70s….all aimed at trying to hem Ndigbo into the area formerly known as the East Central State and now south-east!

The Ijaw of the time were excited and encouraged by the anti-Igbo federal gov’t to go in and ‘deigbonise’ as much Igbo territory near or bordering Ijawland as they pleased, and they were equally given control of Rivers State to rule over! The oil-rich parts of Alaigbo the Ijaw couldn’t claim in proxy for the caliphate, a policy was then put in place to deigbonise them…and tall yarns began to emerge of how these territories either originated from Bini Kingdom or were independent ethnicities in their own right! We saw this play out with Igbo sub groups like the Ikwerre and Ogba. But there were a few, like Obigbo, Ndoni (my place) and Egbema (Egbema was wickedly divided in two and placed in separate states) that were so glaringly and obviously Igbo that not much could be done to deigbonise them, so they largely left things as they were insofar as the caliphate and their southern backers had unhindered access to the oyel and gas fields found in these Igbo territories! I say ‘largely left things as they are’ because they still had a few tricks up their sleeves…like changing Obigbo to ‘Oyigbo’. I defy anyone reading this to present any colonial or pre-war official document/s that made reference to ‘Oyigbo’…or even where the ‘rumu’ prefix was used!

The state creation that divided the old Rivers state into two and gave the Ijaw their own state, led to the decline and eventual death of Ijaw influence and shenanigans in present day Rivers state, which is now rightfully in the hands of the Igboid majority!

There is something like North Central but nothing like South South.Clown
AbujaCitiBlog:
South East is a legitimate Cardinal Point. What the hell is South-South? Ok. Let me give you clue. In the North you have the North East, North West and North Central. But in the South, you now have South-South! What is South-South? If you can't have North-North or East-East or West -West why then do we have South-South?

You are an illegitimate cardinal point/ geopolitical Zone. There is nothing like South-South. South Central would have made more sense. And in any case, the geopolitical zones were created by Abacha in the 90's. So does it mean Asaba had no bearing before the 90's?

Asaba is and have always been part of Igboland. Let me give you an example. There are Yorubas in Kogi and Kwara and these states are in the North- Central Geopolitical zone. Can a Yoruba from Kwara deny his tribe and say he is from North Central? That is exactly how stupid idiots like you sound when you deny your Igbo tribe and claim you are from South- South as if South-South is a tribe!

My friend go and learn your history, onye eriri eri ka ibu!

If not for creation of the six geopolitical Regions, would they have mouth to put in Asaba issue?

Akoko people are diverse oh, one of the most diverse and complicated tribe, no surprise because they are mixture of Yorubas and Edos from different clans that mixed together for Centuries with other native neighboring ethnic groups like Igalas, and even ebiras. If any Akoko man tells you he's not Yoruba then his ancestors is probably Edo. Majority of akoko-edos are still Yoruba though.

No Yoruba denies his roots, I've only seen that happen in the east.
