See it

The three tribes are as follows:

1.Igboid otherwise known as upland
2. Ijoid otherwise known as Riverine..
And
3. Ogoni..


The Ijoid is the largest group with 12 and half LGAs.. out of 23 LGAs ..

Ogoni with 4 LGAs have neither become Deputy nor Governor...


Only Igboid and Ijoid occupy the positions.

Well, seems like Ogoni didnt get the memo for the tribal rotation system in Nigerian politics.

OGONI WITH LEAST LGS AND IN MINORITY CAN NEVER TAKE ON ANY OF THE TWO POSITIONS!

Do you know the meaning of igboid? This is a descriptive word which means something that is in resemblance of Igbo. Might be Igbo or closely related. That is the meaning of Igboid. If ikwerres had five states and Igbos 4 lga Igbos would be described as Ikwerroid. Hope you get that.

Rivers Staye is a highly multiethnic State. Where will you place Andoni, Engenni, Abua and Odual? There is even Ogbiya in Ahoada West too.
Re: The 3 Tribes That Make Up Rivers State And The LGAs They Occupy..(Photos). by Tranquill:
Every tribe in Nigeria has at least a sense of dignity and self respect except Igbo people, the reason they are the only ones that will be opening very stvpid threads to spew nonsense and be showcasing idiocy.
