You guys are now fighting kogi people now because the iglas in Enugu want to be with their own people in kogi?

See how its only other peoples land you guys are interested in.

Anioma people go see shege for una hand and curse Ned in future.

kokoA:
Come and complete the story Joe! Did you or did you accept the gift gesture from the woman?

ken6488:
delta state is richer than all of south east but you want anioma

Wickedtruths:
What is Imo and Anambra compared to Delta state?
But you people want to carry Anioma and lump them with Imo to create a new state.

UkoAnnang:
Mr. Man this morning and won't have that time to educate you more. But let me remind you that the Gowon plotted war was not just a war against Igbo. It was a was against the people of the then eastern region. My people suffered from that war even more than some indigenous Igbo communities. My grandmother told me the ordeal of that war and she was always wished and pray that such shouldn't happen again.

My grandmother told me how our women were kidnapped and raped by the Nigerian soldiers. Yam bans and livestock were deserted by the army that they couldn't even see a seed to cultivate when returning from that war. My dad ran into the rumbling crowd and disappeared for over three months and she couldn't found him and she lost hope, perhaps he was killed or captured into the war front by Biafran or Nigerian soldiers.

But it's so disheartening when Igbos keep saying they were the only one who suffered the war, discarding and neglecting our plights without telling our stories who suffered the war even more than some of their communities.
In today's Igbo Odumegwu Ojukwu is their forgone hero while late Lt. Conel Effiong is forgotten in their history.

Ublaize:
No matter Delta state wealth, Anambra and Imo are more developed than Delta in terms of infrastructure. Your wealth is premised on oil and federal allocation. Asaba is arguably developed today because of Onitsha

okoloto:
The land belongs to Enugu state. If ette prefers kogi, let them pack from the land and go back to wherever the government of kogi will give them.
Meanwhile Enugu govt has over pampered Ette with amenities appointments and development and still they are not contented. Let them compare with towns in neighbouring kogi state and the level of development.

saddler:
The way a set of people in this country drags land and people ehnnn.

They are everywhere at the same time dragging everybody.
Today it is Ikwerre. Tomorrow is Anioma.

Next tomorrow is Ette.
Despite these people always coming out to deny any historical or ancestral links with them.

Wickedtruths:
Asaba is developed because of Onitsha or wetin this one dey talk?
Are you aware that in the entire Anambra state, whenever there's fire outbreak in Onitsha, they borrow firetrucks from Asaba in Delta?

The most prominent fire incident that Obi donated money to traders in Onitsha, where did they get firetrucks that put out the fire from?

Asaba is developed than Onitsha.
Asaba has an airport, when did the entire Anambra state manage to get one?

Delta has a proper stadium that hosts matches. What does Anambra have?

You are running from the East to seek succour in Asaba, yet you ungrateful elements are bad mouthing Asaba.

Hankim:
Don’t lose your mental state, be warned

MEGAWATCH:
It's your APC people.

Why are you suprise and angry?


🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ublaize:
You’re pained because the truth can be painful. Thankfully, you have foolishly admitted Onitsha people run to Asaba. This prove to the fact how much they have developed Asaba by building houses, hotels and estates all over Asaba. If this pains you, I don’t care.

Wickedtruths:
Have you ever seen people leave where there is water and relocate to the desert?
Onitsha is a barren land of destruction and nothing is working there.

You run out of your barren land to places where there is prosperity. That's why when they tell you to go back to your land, you start crying that they want to kill you.

Delta is more developed than your entire East and that's why you went to steal Anioma to have something to brag about.

Ublaize:
You can keep arguing foolishly. It doesn’t change the fact Onitsha developed Asaba . We love it when you keep hating on the SE particularly Onitsha, because that’s one of the drives for our success. We will let our achievements do the talking . When the time comes Anioma will be part of the SE if they want to and there is NOTHING you can do about it other than scratching your blokos in perennial pain

Ublaize:
The Ette community should be happy Enugu state assumes ownership. What’s Kogi state compared to Enugu? Kogi state is probably the worst and most underdeveloped state in Nigeria with empty large land mass. Anyway, the culture and traditions of the Ette people can be investigated to know where they fall.

Mba don join APC next na drag land like Wike

However, Igbo ethnic group were cheated, their lands were ceded to other states and communities, Igbos are found in part of Rivers State, places like;
Ahoda West
Emohua
Ikwerre
Etche
Ogba Egbema/ndoni
Oyigbo
Omuma
Ndoki
Obio/Akpor
Port Harcourt City
The above mentioned LGAs and communities are indigenous Igbo communities ceded to Rivers State. I have indigenous Igbo spoken friends from Bonny and Opobo but I won't add them since they are dominated.

Igbos make half of Delta State, Igbos are found in part of Benue State and Cross Rivers State. Let's not forget we have small Igbo communities in Akwa Ibom, the part bordering Ngwa and Arochukwu in Abia State.

If these boundaries (though these ethnic groups I mentioned won't agree to Igbo becos of their bad character) are reconnected, Igbo may be even than southwest

Ette Belongs to Kogi, Not Enugu: Community Counters Enugu Govt’s Claim, Cites Legal Evidence | Nigeria News Today



The long-standing interstate boundary dispute involving Ette community has intensified as stakeholders representing the area have formally rejected the Enugu State Government’s statement dismissing reports that the National Boundary Commission (NBC) affirmed Ette as belonging to Kogi State.

In a detailed rejoinder issued through Crownfield Solicitors and signed by Chief Festus Ameh Ogwuche, PhD, the Ette community described the Enugu State Government’s position as misleading, legally weak and unsupported by formal boundary
records.

The Bureau News: Community Challenges Enugu State’s ‘Fake News’ Narrative

According to the rejoinder, Enugu State’s public defense rests only on an alleged “oral denial” attributed to the Director-General of the NBC. The statement insists that no written retraction, circular, or authenticated official communication exists to counter NBC findings already backed by structured boundary procedures.

The Ette stakeholders stressed that the boundary position did not arise from a single letter but from years of comprehensive fieldwork, ethnographic assessments, scientific boundary tracing, and technical delineation exercises supervised by the NBC and the Office of the Surveyor General of the Federation in line with a Supreme Court directive.

The exercises confirmed Ette’s location within Kogi State jurisdiction while accusing Enugu State of persistent unlawful territorial encroachment.

Nigeria News Today: Evidence Points to Kogi State Jurisdiction

The legal team revealed that boundary activities were jointly undertaken with full participation of both states, including Enugu officials who allegedly endorsed earlier boundary positions. However, when the final demarcation phase was scheduled, Enugu State reportedly failed to participate on several occasions, citing logistics and funding constraints.

The community argued that a state that repeatedly avoided demarcation exercises cannot later depend on political press releases to distort established boundary facts.

Calls for Action

Stakeholders demanded that:

1. Enugu State Government should produce verifiable documentary evidence or desist from misinformation.
2. The National Boundary Commission should conclude the demarcation exercise without further delay.
3. Authorities in Enugu should cease administrative interference in Ette pending final boundary enforcement.

The rejoinder maintained that Ette’s true territorial identity is grounded on verifiable law, maps, history and factual administrative records rather than political narratives.

The Bureau News will continue to monitor developments surrounding this sensitive interstate boundary issue as the National Boundary Commission moves forward with its mandate.
