Breaking!! National Assembly Okays Creation Of Anioma State For South South!! by Toruibestate(op):
*ONE STATE SLOT FOR EACH ZONE* : *NATIONAL ASSEMBLY PICK ANIOMA STATE OVER TORU-EBE STATE.*



When I grew up to recognize myself as an Ijaw person, I once asked my late father a question that still troubles me today: Where were the Ijaws when states were being created? How did we allow ourselves to be so kpalakpala—so fragmented and balkanized—across many states, when the Ijaws are not even scattered by nature?


His reply was simple but painful. He said the Ijaw people went to school late. When the main things were being divided, there weren’t enough Ijaws in positions of influence to defend the rights of our people. He also said there was fear among the powers that if the Ijaw became too united, the oil they drink from Ijaw veins would be threatened.


This issue of state creation must not be taken as a joke. Before they announce the six newly created states—one for each geopolitical zone—we must make our stand clear. We cannot continue to use our oil to feed Nigeria while being underrepresented and politically weakened.


Toru-Ebe State is a must.
They chose Anioma over Toru-Ebe State. Anioma should naturally belong to the South East, not take the single slot meant for the South South.


The Ijaws of Ondo, Edo, and Delta must never again be marginalized. We are already forming 31 LGA teams and will establish a full-time state executive to pursue this cause. By fire or by force, we must get what we deserve—or be allowed to leave this confederation-like country called Nigeria.

They are putting it in South South instead of South East that he asked for.


They should take it to South East.

Let it be created first, Igbo is Igbo by natural creation, south east is a geopolitical creation.

What’s the essence of more states when the same foundational issues remain? It would have been justice for the South east if the new state was created for them since they lacked one state to make up with other regions but this is Nigeria where justice is not justified.

Give the Anioma people their flowers
they didn't go to sleep when Ned Nwoko was busy trying to sell and finish them and their descendants

They even let everyone know that Ned Nwoko's Papa was from Enugu but they had still embraced him as their own because his mother was Anioma

They really took their time to dissect and explain his ancestry and why he was misbehaving towards them

And why can’t Anioma, a homogeneous Igbo state, be in the south-east!? What connects Anioma with Ijaw or Ogoni?

How is Anioma Igbo? Do you really understand your history or you are relying on all these internet distortions here and there?

From day one Anioma has not been an Igbo dream.

See who’s accusing others of ‘not knowing their history’!You’re apparently ignorant of when this agitation for Anioma, as distinct from Midwest region, Bendel and presently Delta state, began!

If Anioma are not ethnically Igbo, what are they? And what distinguishes one as being Igbo? So we know how to differentiate!

If you are well grounded and open for proper debate open a thread for this discussion.

I have to show how Igbos don't know their history. I do hope you will be able to defend the facts that will be presented.
