Names Of Tribes In South South Nigeria by GreatBoss(op): 8:58am On Jan 04, 2024
South South comprise of 6 States


EDO

Edo have these tribes: Bini, Esan, Afenmai, Ijaw, Owan


DELTA

Delta have these tribes: Urhobo, Anioma, Ijaw, Isoko, Itsekiri.



BAYELSA:

Bayelsa is an homogeneous Ijaw State don't be deceived.
What we have is different dialects.



RIVERS:

Half of Rivers State is Ijaw with 11 and half LGAs, while the rest share the remaining 11 and half.
Ogoni 4 LGAs, Ikwerre 3 and half and the rest upland take the remaining 4.


AKWA-IBOM

AKWA-IBOM have these tribes, Ibibio, Annang, Ijaw (Obolo) Oron, Eket of which even Oron is saying they are Ijaws from Obolo group.
Their elders came and visit us.


CROSS RIVER

Cross River have the highest numbers of tribes in South South over 17.

They are Efik, Ekoi, Iyalla, Boki, Ogoja etc.




In conclusion, Ijaw is by far the largest tribe in South South hence Ijaw control it.


Where Ijaw occupy in Niger Delta is bigger than South East Nigeria.


Ijaws were unjustly balkanized into six States of Ondo, Edo, Delta, Bayelsa, Rivers and Akwa Ibom States when we are fully together and not even scattered by God.

If someone creates a thread to feel good about themselves, let them be.

Why don't you people have emotional intelligence on this forum?

Mr Ebi

Leave KaiKai so that KaiKai will leave you alone.

Igbos alone in those states you listed are more than all Ijaw combined even with the ones yet to be given birth to in next 200 years.


Even if you create threads from Now till the KaiKai clears from your eyes in Nigeria and outside Nigeria everyone will always Know the 3 major tribes


Its in the constitution and No amount of propaganda will change that

How many presidents or important persons have come out of Ijaw land?


First president of Nigeria was Igbo


First military head of state was Igbo


What else do you have to say?


How many Igbo persons have come out to run for president in a major party in recent years?


If peter Obi had APC or PDP ticket you feel he'd lose?


He took LP a dead party and came third


Tell your Ijaw brothers to run with a dead party and become president.


Goodluck only became president due to what happened to Yaradua


He's still the only seating president who couldn't secure second term


Shameful!

Saying that Anioma is a tribe is like saying there's a tribe called Nigeria

Anioma is the name of an area, it is neither a tribe nor an ethnic group

[color=#006600][/color]

This guy you too like unnecessary controversy. If one goes out in any part of the country, how many times can one even see an Ijaw man/woman?
Even in churches/mosques, what's the number of Ijaw people present there? If not for GEJ that became president, who knows about the tribe in the national political environment?
I doubt if you are really Ijaw, why disturbing the cyberspace with unnecessary threads. With all the money in Bayelsa, how has it been able to meet up with other oil rich regions in the world?
Igbos are one of the greatest tribes in the world, if not for archaic political practice in the country that thrives in putting people/regions down, the Igbo nation will be in same category as Singapore etc.
