I hope when the governor gives home a little doze of his misyarns, the federal government will not be running helter skelter. Just a little doze

BloomingDale:
He said the truth na. If opobo were real Ijaw people they would have been part of Bayelsa when they were splitting rivers into rivers and bayelsa.

Are you saying there aren't real Ijaw people in Rivers State?

Burob:
Guy true true confirmed, you need a head check ASAP.

it’s you that needs your head checked because you guys choose slavery over wisdom

He is a man under the influence of hard substances!

SeverusSnape:
Wike is a childish man.

You are not real ikwere man you are an igbo man

I see a lot of portable in wike..

SeverusSnape:
Wike is a childish man.

U need brain 🧠 transparency test

DatNiggaDaz:


Wike has learnt tribalism, divide & rule tactics from the sophisticators.

He is lying again after claiming before the election that he "supported" an Ijaw man to become Governor

Now, he is no more an Ijawman. Since the Ijaws through their Chiefs & associations have made a bold attempt to stand behind SIM,nothing is left for the drunkard other than tribalism & division

He knows he has failed already

That's not the context of what he said. I watched the entire event live. What he implied is that Fubara hasn't helped Ijaw people as expected. More like "you that's an Ijaw haven't done so well for your people and you're stirring tribal sentiment so Ijaw will support you. Are you truly Ijaw?"

Pls I want To Ask... Why is Fubara Speaking Igbo So Fluent

BloomingDale:
He said the truth na. If opobo were real Ijaw people they would have been part of Bayelsa when they were splitting rivers into rivers and bayelsa.

oga shut up, do you attend geography in secondary school, why do we have some Igbo, Yoruba in some state but the are not in their land

Truths9ja:
clueless wailer and manipulator, so tell me which tribe is governor Fubara. Fubara has disgraced you times without number, you are just ranting and wailing niii. Fubara is an ijaw man and prove that to the world. Ijaw tribe is the largest tribe in the niger delta

Your nap is fake.
I can draw my own map with computer

Oghene86:
I really don't understand ijaw or no ijaw his he not from Rivers State,? What has that got to do with what is going on, he said the ijaw are minority in Rivers State so why is he pulling SIM from the ijaw, Wike you need to grow up the reason for this thanksgiving was just to tongue lash Sim you never said anything about the thanksgiving shame on you.

Wike is going tribal because he's facing backlash from Ijaw groups who are standing with the governor

Dalohad:
Gov. Fubara please continue to deal with Wike. Let him keep creating contents for us.

Deal with him mercilessly..

Our yoruba Muslims are deceiving him,the way they deceived Rochas Okorocha. Today Rochas is as meek as a dove.. Dem don dump am. I remember the day madridguy, omenka and Rottennaija were calling him the 'Next president after Buhari'....

Me? Call Wike next president? Why would I do that? I don't even like the man.

peleson1:
People can clearly see that some persons in this nairaland are lunatics and as mad as wike.

What so the ijaws in Ondo ,akwa ibom and other places that did not join bayemda are what?

Opobo and bonny are ibani peoptof ijaws.

Nonsense divide and rule politics.

Weak man like wike . Fubara an ijaws man is the governor. Wike can hang himself

Whilst I am not in support of Wike, truth be told, Ubani people of Bonny and Opobo are Igbo people.
History even notes it that Opobo was named after a former Igbo king of Bonny, by Jaja.

One of these days DNA analysis will be carried out to prove this satisfactorily.

What would you do if you call someone to come and eat and the person get there and lock you up to eat alone?

It's called SWANSONG; BAT will soon pull the carpet off his feet! Save this!

Wike is fast becoming a political liability to BAT!

A bull in a China Shop...

Splashme:
So, the famous King Jaja of Opobo
was not Ijaw?

That is laughable. Wike talks
before he thinks
.

History has it the he's Igbo man.

blackboy:
Have any of past presidents - past or present better than Wike? As he is all in all based on our presidents he is a perfect fit for president

You must be goofing or might have taken something. Perfect fit ke? I laugh in Swahili. Maybe you guys have been saying that within your groups.

You see Nasir El Rufai despite all said about Him. Wike no near Nasir El Rufai in anything. FCT minister Nasir El Rufai record can not be broken.

So you guys should stop taking that substance you guys have been taken.
Wike can never be VP of Nigeria talkles of a President. Wike will be worse than Abacha. Look at how he's been heating up the political system. Nigeria is complex and he can't handle the complexity of Nigeria.


Nigeria don't need a tough President. GEJ was the best temperament of a President. He lost election and saw that violence was at hand and called his opponent to congratulate Him.
GEJ saved Nigeria from serious crisis.
Even Buhari has shown to be a lenient Man, more lenient than the present One.

Nigeria needs a President that will unite this Nation. The other parts of the world are running away in development comparing Nigeria to her mates.

Nigeria s greatest resources is not even her natural resources but her human resources. Nigerians are doing crazy things in the diaspora.

My view changed when I studied overseas for 4 years as an international student. My school had Govs children, ministers children and ordinary Nigerian students like me. That changed my world view. Class work you will see Nigerian students doing excellently. Many other parts of the world look down on Africans but they get shocked when they see blacks way smarter than them.

I won't forget one Indian babe in my class confessed to me that her perceptions about Africans changed. People they feel inferior where beating them in class.


Nigeria is blessed. But our leaders are the problem. Leadership should be held by patriots not ethnic baiters, but genuine patriots that truly believe in building a great Nation.

Nigeria has the potential to be a 3 trillion dollars economy. Even the whites know this. But they will not allow a smart leader to rule Nigeria.

We needs a smart, intelligent, peaceful leader. I wonder how Buhari didn't push for a man like Prof yemi Osibanjo if he really wanted good for this country to succeed Him. Akimwumi Adesina, Ngozi Okonjo iweala, Nasir El Rufai etc are the kind of presidents that should rule Nigeria. But rofo rofo politicians that feed on the resources of this country won't allow it.

Before all this politics of selfish interest, do you know any one from Opobo who calls himself an Ijaw man or woman?

phantomxx:
And so?? If I sponsor your traditional and white weddings, honeymoon and buy a car for you and your wife DOES IT GIVE ME THE RIGHT TO F.UCK YOU WIFE

Politics is far different from your analogy, politics is about sharing.It is about where my interest are well protected; rub your back,you rub mine back. It's like a business , putting my money where I will get higher returns. It involves tribal and ethnic sentiments, political sentiments even religion sentiments.

Are you sure you're from Africa and Nigeria to be specific?

Akinpresident:
It's like saying why weren't Igbos in Delta, Rivers, Cross river, Akwa Ibom, Benue and Kogi part of current South East states.
The people who created the states weren't interested in where anyone was coming from. States were created for political exigency.

Political exigencies and administrative convenience .

WHO IS ACTUALLY IJAW IN RIVERS STATE?


ARE KALABARI IJAW PEOPLE.


KALABARI DERIVED FROM CALABAR.


THEY ARE AROCHUKWU EFIK/IGBO MIX, WITH IJAW LATE COMERS TO MIX WITH THEM.


AND THE IGBOS ARE MORE IN NUMBERS,(MAJORITY) THAN THE OTHER TWO, WHICH WAS Y IGBO OVER-RAN AROCHUKWU FROM WHERE THEY CAME.


SO WHO IS ACTUALLY IJAW?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLeieKo8lQM

THE PEOPLE U ARE TALKING TO ARE AS MUCH IJAW AS FUBARA, NOBODY IS MORE IJAW THAN THE OTHER.


THEY ARE ALL CEREMONIAL IJAWS.

The same history told us that ibani ijaws people of bonney ,the ruling house of bonny bought the slave boy jaja and then decided against selling him into slavery like others like him.
He was kept and he was cultured and given ijaws name and he later became a head of house and then civil broke out and the igbo slave that ijaws bought and made later became king .


That jaja a once igbo slave boy bought by the ijaws became king as an ijaw did not make ijaws igbo .
That Obama of Kenyan decent became the US president,that does not make all Americans Kenyans.


Pls no land grabbi

Political exigencies and administrative convenience without care for tribal identity.

Konquest:
For those who don't know and are NOT historically conversant of archival materials, as of 1870 when Jaja and his group fled the 1869 Civil War in Bonny, what you call Opobo today was ORIGINALLY Ibibioland NOT Ijawland. It was the White British trader friends of Jaja who saved him from extermination when the better armed war expedition of Bonny Island came for him where he fled to, otherwise Jaja and his group from the Anna Pepple house who fled from Bonny in 1870 would have been wiped out completely. Opobo (which is originally part of Ikot Abasi) was given out on lease by the Ibibios for Jaja and his group to stay with his group who fled from Bonny.

The current Opobo was later carved out right into Rivers State in the 1970s [The South Eastern State which was created by General Yakubu Gowon on May 27, 1967, was renamed Cross River State in 1976. Then the merger of Opobo to Rivers State was fully done in the year 1976 from Cross River State while the larger part of Opobo (Ikot Abasi) remained as part of the larger Ibibioland] otherwise Opobo in Rivers State would have been located in Akwa Ibom State today. Opobo indeed is an ancestral hybrid OR mix of people of Ijaw, Ibibio, and Ndoki bloodlines. Jaja was originally a slave (who later underwent the Ijaw initiation ceremony or rites to transform into an Ijaw after he was set free in Bonny) but in reality he is ancestrally of Ibo roots. Jaja was actually a very ruthless and wicked man who prevented other upland tribes and more (the Ngwas, Annangs, Ibibios, etc) from trading directly with the British traders down the river routes and this led to the Ikot Udo Obong War with the Annangs who resisted him. He had a lot of people from other tribes publicly beheaded in bloody circumstances and this is one of the reasons why the British colonialists removed and deported him in 1887 because he was just a middle man Chief who wanted to dominate the trading activities to the EXCLUSION of other tribes along the Opobo (Imo) River. He died in 1891, 21 years after first fleeing to Opobo (Ikot Abasi) in Ibibioland.

So, Opobo was known originally a part of IKOT ABASI as of 1870. Jaja was originally from the Umuduruoha clan in Amaigbo, in modern-day Imo State but was SOLD into slavery (I watched a serialized Maxwell Enemuo documentary years back where some folks claimed it was Jaja's slave trader father who sold him into slavery based on some likely Ibo abominations) and was brought to Bonny in Ijawland to be sold off to the infamous White slave traders right in Bonny. The Aros and their confederacy gangs such as the Abam and Ohafia who followed them on several slaves raids in the Ibo interior brought these Ibo captives to be SOLD to the Ijaws of the coast at Bonny who then acted as middle men and sold these people from the mid-1700s to the 1800s to the American, British and Jewish slave traders. Also, the place called Arochukwu of today is itself originally Ibibioland (with an original Ibibio name) BUT as a result of a series of wars that occurred between 1690 and 1720, the Ibibios lost full grip, BUT you will still see very strong vestiges of Ibibio religion, cultural traditions, Ekpe society, language, style of dressing, cuisines and more on the people of Aro till today. Some family lineages in Aro also have direct Ibibio ancestry and Ibibio names.


I hope that helps.


Read the iconic book: "History of Nigeria" by Sir. Allan Burns, who was the Governor-General of Nigeria and the Gold Coast (Ghana) to read more advanced information about the Ibibio origins of Opobo (IKOT ABASI) as of 1870 and Jaja's greed and wickedness to his fellow men because he wanted to monopolize the middle man trade to the exclusion of other tribes in the words of Sir Allan Burns.

Thanks for this info. 🙏

IF U LISTEN TO ASARI, HE REPEATS EVERYTHING THAT I JUST SAID.


KALABARI ARE IGBO PEOPLE MIXED WITH IJAW AND EFIK; BUT JUST LIKE IKWERRE, THEY TARGET, SUPPRESS, OPPRESS ANYBODY SPEAKING OR CLAIMING TO BE IGBO AFTER THE BIAFRA WAR.



BEFORE THE WAR, THE IGBO IDENTITY WAS NOT IN HIDING.



THEY HAD THEIR IGBO NAMES AND SPOKE THEIR IGBO LANGUGAE.


EVEN THE IJAW KALABARI SPEAKS IS MIXED WITH IGBO.

You feel so inadequate, you just had to pull president Tinubu into your local tussles just to blame others for your problems. When did calling an impostor out become tribal hatred or part the duty of a president?

Bobloco:
This is madness.

In fact, Wike is a madman.

He has arrogated to himself the power to determine who is Ijaw and who is not.

Wike is now a true disciple of Tinubu's 'Emilokan' tribal and ethnic bigotry, a brand of bitter politics that promotes hatred and extreme tribal and ethnic division.

Wike will not end well.
