Ika People Reject Sen Nwoko’s Bill To ‘annex’ Anioma State To South East by Statecreation(op): 4:47pm On Jul 03, 2024
Ika people reject Sen Nwoko’s Bill to ‘annex’ Anioma State to South East


Midwestern Region (2) States; Western Region (7) States and Northern Region (19) States. In our considered opinion; Senator Ned Nwoko and his Distinguished Colleagues from Edo, Ishan, Itsekiri, Urhobo, Ijaw should be addressing the subtle and yet obvious marginalization/decimation of Midwestern Region amongst the original Four Regions of Nigeria as at 1963.

CONCLUSION:

In the light of all the above; Ika Ethnic Nationality, in principle, supports the Creation of States particularly ANIOMA State that does not bestride any part of Eastern State or Region. Taking all the determinants that are required for State Creation; the Four (4) Local Government Areas that make up the original Proposed ANIOMA State eminently satisfy all the requirements.
We, therefore, humbly request our Distinguished Senator, Ned Nwoko to revisit his ” Proposed Bill for the Creation of ANIOMA State particularly ” the GEOGRAPHICAL COVERAGE” or Contrived Annexation of ANIOMA State to Eastern Region.

We respectfully rest our case.

People who are not from Anioma should cease from creating senseless threads...

Ika is not the only people from Anioma and a such can't be used to generalize.

Well, it's only fair that the igbo states get one more addition to it so as to balance out the federation and its representatives at the centre.

It's somehow that all other regions would have more representatives than the igbos in decision making circles especially as they are one of the major ethnic groups in the country.

Anioma are Igbo they mustn't be in the south east. Igbo populated areas in Lagos are being represented by their members. Are they in southeast, no.

I don't care if its anioma, or etiti, or adada all I'm saying is that the south east should have one more state created for it.

Ipob criminals were all over everywhere online 8 expecting us Deltans to fall for that nonsense plot of nwoko to create anioma, so they can spread Biafra to south cos of both oil and sea access. Animals. Then the agbaya senator wan rule anioma, since he can't wait till 15 years time when governorship power rotation gets to north delta.see Easterners saying that they are yearning to join their brothers from delta. Are we ukwuanis. Ndokwas from Igbo? No. We don tell Una. Ika don tell Una too.them scatter full delta state also cos of very cheap and easy land plus serenity.even devil no get mind buy eastern land.

Osimilis and Aniochas identify as Igbos. If they had a chance, they would leave Delta State and join Anambra

I think that eventually, Ikas and Ukwuanis may end up in Edo statebwith Bini's

Ika should have their states. Curved out from edo and delta. The orhiomon local government is just too big for nothing. With no government input. It's one of the neglected part of edo. No government presence there.

just look at your irredentist warped thinking....." If we can't get all of theirs, let's get a big part of it" mentality. Igbos have 5 states to themselves alone, the south have over 40 tribes in 6 states, yet, you still want to take a part of theirs and add to yours. I highly suggest you don't waste time, cos even oshimili and aniocha will soon reply you. Y'all will be shocked the more

You are mentally challenged.
What are you on about? "Part of theirs" as in what?
Has Ika and Ukwuani not always been labelled as "western Ibo" from precolonial days?
Infact it was not until 1938 that Western Ibos were politically separated from the Eastern ones.
If anyone took from anyone, it's the Minorities that took from the Igbo by having Western Igbo ripped out from us, out in same region with them since 1938, so much time that they( Minorities) have now turned our Western Igbos against us in the East.

Una mind no go touch ground.

We are not interested in all you minorities, we are only after our Igbo speaking groups lumped in that tower of babel you call SS, and one way or the other, now or in the future, we will reunite with them.
"NWAEZE ADIGHI EFU NA MBA".
Ask an Ika or Ukwuani person to interpret that for you.

Later go to Asaba and tell the king of Asaba, the Asagba of Asaba, Obi Chike Edozien, that he is not Igbo and see if he won't chase you away with cutlass

It's not everyone in Delta State that has identity crises, Aniocha and Oshimili don't joke their Igboness

punk. The fool said that as an individual, and not a king, but a rotating traditional stool, and is dead. Okowa said same and Ika people made sure he lost both the state and his polling unit.. He was informed ahead of the election. Just like u said delta north yearned to join east, till 5 local governments of Ika and ndokwa, ukwuani opposed Ned, and now u are hoping on aniocha, oshimili, till they will reply officially.

The War ended in 1970

But People still need to Learn that one of the Easiest Ways
to loose a Civil War is by annexing others Homelands against their own will
because they will definitely join whoever you are fighting against to liberate
themselves from your grip first
Eg Eastern Region Minorities followed by the Midwest after Biafra invaded them

Even if Gowon had refused to fight Ojukwu they would have fought that War for
him from Calabar to Ore because they needed to liberate their Homelands from Ojukwu

You don't even need to waste your energy. They can take up their grievances with IZU ANIOMA, the apex umbrella group representing all the Anioma-Igbo people.

The bottom line is that Igbos of the SE will only accept an extra Igbo state for the SE. Anyone that is not happy with this wish can shelve their own state aspirations.
SS already has 6 states, and it will be unacceptable to the SEners for the SS to have an extra state while the SE still has 5.

Ika can merge with other tribes in Delta state. It's not a big deal. Let other Igbo speaking tribes join the new state.

Should it really come as a surprise that you, a known rabid Igbo hater, is getting all panicky and fretting over the moves by Anioma to unite politically and economically with their blud across the Niger!?

Your entire existence revolves around trying to shortchange Ndigbo politically and economically while working to give your own ethnicity/region a unfair advantage over others and a disproportionate slice of the Nigerian commonwealth!

Check your BP!
