You are a coward and a fool at the same time. People like you go to school to jump fence and learn nothing. When did effiom people turn to the people of Benue state? Useless ipob.

Must you settle down for people land forever? If those community say they don't want you in their land leave there and go back to your region instead of getting killing every day. Igbo people self.

Did you read or are you an illiterate?

They are from Benue but they claim to have Igbo origins.

You're supporting killing because Igbo was mentioned as the victim. Every Nigerian has the right to live and thrive in any part of Nigeria.
Meanwhile the places mentioned in this news are Igboland. Go back and read
The two communities are Igbo fighting each other

You are not a student of history and instead of you to ask the right question you open wide your dirty mouth to talk in a stupid way.

We don't leave our fatherland because of a careless government decision to create a state and cut Igbo communities to make it up.
Go to River state same problem. Cross river too.

Igbos cant leave there land for strangers to occupy.

This is just one of the too many attrocities Nigeria's Federal Government under Military Rule committed against Igbos.

In their wicked efforts to disorganize and reduce Igbos and Southeast landmass by all means after the civil war, they intentionally carved out Southeast communities from Southeast and put them in either Benue, Rivers, Cross River or Akwa Ibom States.


Out of the six geopolitical zones in Nigeria, only Southeast that houses one of the three major tribes in Nigeria have just five states while others have six and seven, yet some wicked souls don't see anything wrong in this because it favors their region and disfavours Igbos they love to hate.



God is not happy with Nigeria, the injustice, the sins, the innocent bloodsheds wasted are so much. Until Nigerians repent of their sins and start treating every Nigerian tribe with love, equity and fairness, Nigeria will continue to struggle as a nation.

And only a God fearing and passionate President who understands the laws of nature and the importance of love, justice, fairness and empathy emerges and lead this honest reconciliation and rebirth of Nigeria, if not, Nigeria goes no where as a nation.

How and when did Ado LG became an Igbo land?
Indigenous Igbos such as Izzi, Ezza and Effium, also found in Ebonyi, who should have been in Ebonyi State, were carved into Benue when old Benue-Platue State was created in 1967. They are in Ado, Obi and Okpku LGA's

Are you normal at all ? They should leave their Ancestral land and go where? So you think your own people grew out from the ground in Benin. They also came from somewhere so take your own medicine and go back to your land. Thats if you even know where you come from. yes where Benin people come from go and ask your father where your Ancestors came from to settle at Benin

Lol, I'm not giving myself headache over any Ezza people. Ezza were just settlers, who ran to Benue state then because of all these wars. The people of ezza were giving shelter and lands to farm and make a living by the people of Ado. It's now very shameful and hurtful to see them claiming the lands. It's going to make other villages be wary of them, and not decide to accommodate them. Because as it seems, the war between Uffiom and ezza is not ending soon. Nobody prays for war, but uffioms seems to be looking for trouble always and not backing down.
Have the Ezzas spent up to 200 years on the land you say is owned by the Ado folks of Benue State? I assume you're from Benue State as well.

I read some years back that the Ezzas were usually given temporary lands to use for farming after helping other ethnic groups or close neighbors to fight wars as mercenaries. It's improper for the Ezzas to renege on handing back lands that were leased to them say 100 years ago by their neighbors. People will be wary of them as being dishonest because of this if that is the case.

Instead of this one to call for investigation and prosecution of crimes, he calls for people to go back to their region, one Nigeria indeed.

Read and understand Nigerian history, No

Listen to news, updates, No

No more about your country, No

Attend history classes in school, No

Only to play 9jabet and sportybet is your main calling

So, you don't know there are Igbo's caved into some states like Delta, Kogi, Cross River, Rivers, Edo, Benue etc

E.g Phyna of Bbnaija is an Igbo girl from Edo State they were caved into Edo State

Why they were carved into Benue rather than Ebonyi, I will never know. Over one million Igbos that should have been in Ebonyi were carved into Benue State for no reason other than to get the population of Benue to State level
One million indeed, you brought your stupid propaganda here

If you are not aware, there are many Igbo speaking communities in benue state. Kogi speaking communities in Anambra, Akwa ibom speaking communities in Abia.

States were not created according to languages especially along community boundaries.

You are ment. Benue can never be their land. Are you normal so? Besides, Benue are peace loving people. If you comprehended what was written there, you will understand that the attack was not from their host, but from Uffiom, their fellow Ebonyi people.
So, you know who is attacking them and you don't know that the land they occupy is their a ancestral land abi?

You are very delusional...what do one expect anyways from someone that will eventually be buried will a king? nonsense Abobaku's

You’re quoting Tinubu’s news paper that you call Ibadan express way media when it suits you.
If Igbo speaking part wants to join Igbo they can go. We don’t have land for them in Benue.
Igbos are synonymous with Fulani from futajalon!
