This is no longer applicable, SS is no longer part of Yoruba and Igbo again. We honour and respect them as independent region.

They are talking of ethnic groups. What brought "south south" to the discussion?

Education is important my brother.

Is South South an ethnic group?

Who doesn't know after the war Igbo people were shrinked as much as possible in other to weakened them?

I totally understand Nigeria for doing that... Any good opponent with knowledge of war would have done same thing after victory to totally neutralize their opponent.

You can call it spoils of war.


It's left for Igbos to rise again and collect back their territories 😁

How can they claim all the shoreline? You think other tribes in South South are stupid? It’s called Bight of Benin for a reason, and not Bight of Ijaw.

You're obviously a very intelligent person.Same happened to Poland and Germany during the first world war and second world war. The Germans recovered from the defeat of WWI and took back their territories. No one told the Allied Powers to be careful with Germany after the defeat of WWII. Everyone know that Igbo just have to recover and be strong enough to take bake their territories. It's either or no way. A good move from the Western Igbos thinking of creation of Anioma state. Other southern and Northern Igbos of Kogi and Benue need to start thinking along that line too. So should coastal Igbo of Bonny and Opobo work with hinterland Igbo. Igbo land must reunite again by nullifying all that the British, Gowon and Awolowo did to give the North and SW an edge over the rest of the country. Even the southern minorities should know that without Igbo as their last line of defence, they stand no chance in Nigeria.

What kind of stupid victim mentality is this?....if you are not Igbo don't say what you don't know.

I swear.
Best thing is.... The process will be slow but can't be stopped...
Definitely Igbos will have their chance ones again to have equal power with the North and West. I pray they use it wisely this time.

That is why I'm not a fan of that guy in Finland causing major problems for Igbos why they're trying to rebuild.

Nnamdi Kanu was about to make same mistake Hitler made.... If Hitler wasn't too confident perhaps by now Germany would have been a world power.
They were very advanced during world war ll
Even more advanced than England and USA combined.

From creating new military campaign strategy (blitzkrieg) to creating the best aircraft and military automobiles as at that time.

If only Hitler forgot the disgrace of the Treaty of Versailles 😞

Ibos masquerading as other tribes have started their usual revisionism on this thread. Even going as far as twisting the history of the first and second world wars.

Anyone with knowledge knows that the Biafra agenda that burns surreptitiously in the heart of every Ibo is DOMINATION of all the smaller nation states/tribes surrounding them and locking them into a landlocked enclave. The first victims of Biafra today would be the minorities around them....what they did in the mid West and Ore in 1967 will be child's play if they are allowed to gain Biafra today....

But someone from Abia state understands the word ANIOMA clearly.

Does that make them different from igbos?

Strange that they made sure to differentiate themselves from the South East Igbos as far back as 1922, and not after the civil war as depicted by you guys.

There's nothing like igbos dominance, you are just Envious of a hardworking Igboman.
Re: 1922 Map Of Nigeria Showing The Major Ethnic Groups. by DevilsEqual(m): 12:28pm On Jun 19, 2024
So Ika isnt with the Igbos even in that map
Ibibio, ogoni and co stood alone as a distinct ethnic group

Why then the gum-body n 2024

I noticed also that the Yorubas have always remained homogenous and intact since then...wow thats organizational

Their claims is watery

Its obvious from this map that, as far as 100years ago, those minorities werent even Igbos. This means that, even before the so-called balkanization of the post independence Eastern region into other states, ethnic groups like Ika,Ogoni and co were never supposed to be grouped together with the Igbos cause they were never with them at any point before now
Re: 1922 Map Of Nigeria Showing The Major Ethnic Groups. by DevilsEqual(m): 12:41pm On Jun 19, 2024
This map shows that 100 years later, only the Yorubas never tried dominate the minorities and swallow them in, No attache by force at any point, not in 1922, not after independence and not even in 2024


You cant say same for the Northern part and the Eastern part

Your name gave you away.
Why should anyone take a confused individual seriously?

Who exactly have Igbo people tried dominating?

Last time I checked Igbo people usually respect their host and never caused any issues.

You never see them fighting their host or being violent like some other people.

I've never heard Igbos and Yoruba clash in Lagos on ibadan or Kwara.

Same can't be said of Hausa or Fulani

It's still envy at play.
Do you know how many northerners that owns oil well in South South Nigeria? while the South South Indigines are mostly pipeline security guards.

That's what is called dominance.
