AlexBells:[color=#006600][/color] You made a good point. But you should understand that states needs the federal government approval to explore any natural or mineral resources in their states. Also the kind of system of government we practice here makes state government unaccountable. Though even with the little funds they have gotten, there nothing to show for because no one is held accountable because of Abuja connection. Igbos will have a cordial relationship with its neighbours when they eventually have their own country. Don't be deceived that it's the political class that are hating elements, it's the people that make up the political class. Due to archaic cultural practices across the country, a lot of people are indoctrinated to be wary of the next tribe and there is no sincere peace resolution after the civil war. The country is just united because of oil/gas which politicians from all tribes are united in the looting spree. A lot of people are just too wicked to be associated with. It's best everyone go their separate ways and let those who love wickedness practice it amongst themselves. Yet the country is the most religious country in Africa. 1 Like 1 Share |

9japride:What I mean by political enmity is that Yoruba hates Igbo today becuase of the political reality of Nigeria, a state is a political creation divide Nigeria and the tension between Yorubas and Igbos either turns to regional politics on the sole control of west Africa and Africa or something else. Only the Ijaws shall we continue to have trouble whether Nigeria divides or not unless the issue of Opobo and Bonny is settled. The rest of minorities would have to work with us becuase we stand a better chance to help them. As for the states, why cant they do without mineral resources since they even get hefty sum from FG allocation, does FG spend crude revenue alone? Only few governors are performing and they are running the states like a socialist economy. They are begged to build road, pipe bone water and underfunded hospitals and those are just about the only thing they do. Why can't the state invest in football, agriculture, technology and innovation, services etc. most universities in the United States are built by the states. Police are built by the state, forget them saying state police, have they ever built an elite and a well funded state intelligence unit? Look I don't want to talk much in these things, failure is part of life, even we get it right someday history have shown that the most foolish ones are not yet born and they keep coming that's why Egypt fell, why Greece fell, why Rome fell, why United States shall fall someday and why Africa may rise and still fall in the future because there is lot of that chances that greedy fools would find their way into power. What I know is that Unification of AlaIgbo is first among other important thing to do before Nigeria get it right, nobody so much about mineral resources, any state that can't do anything without mineral resources should work on themselves, they are not getting the kind of resource control they are expecting, FG is way less corrupt than these states yet FG is a single channel corruption that the state are part of. Resource control when the states are not sincere is a fast means of getting us into a likely environmental disaster among other things, they would still loot it, look at Wike and the rest, creating 14,000 advices just few months to the end of his tenure, why didn't he make same appointment through the past seven years. Giving a monkey power could be a mistake but more power is foolishness, let's deal with FG Cluelessnes until we get it right. |

2elliot: Ijaw doesn't hate Igbo. In fact, we are closer to the Igbos than even our immediate neighbors. We do business with them and intermarry without issues. We allow them into our communities and even create peaceful dwellings for them. But you see this generation of Igbos, they're becoming too violent and aggressive, too desperate and want to claim anything they touch - things their forefathers never laid claim to. If the Igbos have any real enemies, they created them themselves. But I doubt if they have, else, how would you explain the current state of the east? The Igbos are allowing men that love blood to lead them to destruction. Greedy and self-centered men who are arrogantly pursuing their selfish ambitions while killing the economy of the east. Even these ones on Nairaland are calling for war up and down. The Ijaw leaders are peacefully uniting the Ijaw Nation while the Igbo leaders are violently destroying theirs. To the Igbos: If you really love yourselves in the east, or truly love your brothers in foreign lands (who are fine and don't even tag themselves with you), save the east first. Remove the log of wood in your eyes before trying to help the person who doesn't have eye problems. |

Alabo7978: After many years of Ijaw governments in Old Rivers state with their brutalisation and indoctrination and bribing of some Ndoki elders in Rivers state, what do you expect. Your major problem is that Ndokis in Abia still see themselves as Igbos. To make matters worse for you, Ngwa people, who are also a major contributor to the first settlers, see themselves as completely Igbo. You have a mountain to climb |

deekseen: Opobo is a living proof that Bonny is Igboland. Let me explain this grammar in simple terms step by step: (1) Opobo people came from Bonny. (2) Opobo people speak Igbo as the only indigenous language. (3) This shows that Bonny people are Igbo in origin and ancestry. (4) Therefore, Bonny and Opobo are parts of Igboland. |
Re: Ijaws And Igbos Only, Let's Explore Peaceful Setlements In Opobo And Bonny by AlexBells(m): 3:49pm On Nov 29, 2023 |
Donarozzi:Opobo, Bonny situation would be settled when the time is right. For now we have the Federal Republic of Nigeria as a gift from our heroes and ancestors. If the division of Nigeria becomes eminent in our time. Then There are three workable option in Opobo and Bonny. The Ijaws can keep Bonny while we keep Opobo. Both Opobo and Bonny becomes independent city states or a war option whereby we seize both Opobo and Bonny and take even more land. Peace is the best. I know that both Opobo and Bonny have both Igbo and Ijaw heritage of a truths but if they try to be selfish then we seize both and more |

AlexBells: You cannot be an Igbo person and at the same time be of this position. Bonny people claim an Igbo descent right from the beginning. Any little Ijaw in that island is of recent, non-indigenous settlement. You cannot separate Bonny from Opobo. They are of the same Igbo stock. Put together, both Bonny and Opobo are the Ubani tribe of Igboland having been derived from the Ngwa and Ndoki sections of the Igbo nation. |

Donarozzi:Is not as simple as you are thinking, sometimes you need divine wisdom to lead, I train as a politician and military tactician, if Nigerian division becomes eminent, there’s need for a round table discussion between Igbos and Ijaws on how to settle Opobo and Bonny situation. If you claim outright it that the two independent city state belongs to us then you eliminate a position of peace and create a potentially brutal war. King Jaja founded Opobo, both Bonny and Opobo were once independent city states. We are talking about a people here and not some object. They have feelings and they have preference. So all peaceful option would be exhausted. On the other hands, the Ijaws are our biological closest relatives, they are our cousin and have more DNA relation with the Igbos than any other group. Given a no soft landing may lead to great Damages in Bonny and Opobo. There could be option for referendum but two territories solution is possible. I understand what you feel as an Igbo Person but I’m a diplomat in this case, two state solution is possible in Opobo and Bonny in the event of Nigeria division. |

AlexBells:Opobo and Bonny was lumped into the Eastern region by the British before you were born. Just the way Nigeria was created by the British before you were born. Eastern region was created by the white men in 1954, not by an Igbo man. You can not be claiming Opobo or bonny is Igbo land because they found themselves in the eastern region alongside igbos. Only Indigenes of Opobo and Bonny can decide what they want, not an Igbo man like you that is not from Bonny or Opobo. 2 Likes |
