I still find it difficult to understand and wrap my head around the purpose of this thread at this point, or what exactly you intend to achieve with this skewed narrative about slavery and whatnot.

The war ended in 1970.

Long before you were born.

You know nothing about the war beyond the lies, falsehoods, misinformation, and deliberate propaganda you were fed.

Ojukwu and those around him did what they believed they had to do under the circumstances they found themselves in, to save their region and the Igbos. Don’t blame him for that.

You are not Igbo. The Igbos who fought the war have long since moved on, living their lives, building businesses, and establishing themselves in every cranny of this country.

It’s election season. Focus on Tinubu and his calamitous policies masquerading as economic reforms, and spare us this ethnic, tribal bigotry and divisive campaign you keep displaying here.

The war ended in 1970. You missed it. The Igbos survived it. And somehow, you’re still fighting it.
Ojukwu should have left with Igbo land alone

He has no business leaving with PH, Calabar, Uyo, Bonny, Brass etc

So why do the bear most Igbo names,we don't even need those guys to be Igbo,cos one we are not lazy that we depend on selling anything sell able more of there grave space
Better school your fellow Ibos on that .

Ikwere have said they are not Ibos a million times but your useless Ohaneze will not let them be.

Anioma people have rejected being part of your SE in any future arrangement as well.

Pls learn to respect people's boundaries.

Igbos believe that the Niger Delta Minorities suffer from amnesia otherwise the thought of Ikwerres which land was partitioned and annexed by the Igbos like Europeans partitioned Africa would never cross their mind to have them exist in the same region or country.
Many Niger Delta people today celebrate the Civil War. The Civil War was the greatest undoing of the Igbos. To this end a stadium in Port Harcourt was previously called Liberation Stadium in commemoration of the freedom they got from the Igbos. When it appeared Igbos didn't read meaning to the name of the stadium Wike renamed it Yakubu Gowon Stadium to drive the point home. And if this isn't loud enough Rivers State will declare a day to celebrate Gowon. No sane person will deliberately walk into slavery. It is high time Igbos concentrated their efforts on the demarcations and limit of their five plot of land sorry states. It doesn't matter as they claim recently that an Ikwerre man is the president of their socio-cultural organisation. Joseph was an Israelite but became a leader in Egypt when they needed one.
It won't work.
Story for the gods you guys will be in Ogun and be dreaming of Igbo land.. telling someone from pH that they are not Igbos is like telling those in imo they are not Igbos.

Here is not a place to show frustrating..go to the street there and put on your mic let's see something.

A Yoruba man that lost Kwara want us to lose our land too..this time it's you and your family that will come here to fight since you can't in Kwara.. continue crying for Igbos.

The irony is how you guys know the history of Niger Delta people which you all claim are Ibos and dismiss their own history .

How can a stranger tell me who I am and in this case, a stranger whom himself doesn't know his own origins but is claiming lost Jew.

Ikwere and Anioma have told you they are originally from Bini kingdom but you guys say otherwise.

Pls how can a stranger know my history and origin more than me when even he himself doesn't knows his?
Do they bear binin names, this must be a joke from you foreigner's.

I'm telling you. In that place they behave as if it's a taboo to save up or use savings to handle projects or emergencies undecided

Any small thing they will call meeting and start dividing land to sell 🙄 they are so fond of it and it hurts because even I myself have extended relatives from there cry

Your Obi of Onitsha that bears an Ibo name and title has said severally that Onitsha is Bini.

Davido marry Chioma and gave his late son an Ibo name.

That's what happened.

Bini warriors took for themselves Ibo women as wives and the children ended up speaking their mother tongue and bearing the names.

I know your pain, you want Kwara to happen to Igbos it won't work...I don't even know if you went to school.. nothing like ibo.

Again you can only rant here,you dare not come to rivers from your north Dahomey to educate us about our land.

The last time urhobo was fighting against Itsekiri and Ijaw over boundary in delta I mentioned and called your attention to give your own input since you claim to be from there but you ignored that thread even when it graced frontpage till the 5th page undecided

I saw your exhibiting your usual wild vituperations on an Igbo thread and asked why you abandoned that thread and you gave one kind useless reason it befuddled my brain 🤯

That was the day I knew you're not an indigene of Niger Delta but an interloper from the south west sad

Sometimes I’m baffled with their attitude towards the Rivers people,what’s there agenda really trying to force us to be a part of them,you tell an Igbo man you’re from Rivers and fiam he says na Igbo you be na,you say no and he starts to argue seriously with you.
Look at this one. For your mind now you from Rivers, abi? Even with those wild tribal marks across your cheeks? My friend commot for road make person see front.

If gaslighting ever had an annual award, you will win all categories easily with this post.

Let's disect your response to the OP one by one


For context, the OP is reacting to a recent conference organized by all ethnic umbrellas to discus on regional integration based on ethnolinguistic shared heritage held in Abuja recently.

The Ohaneze representatives staged a walk out because Ikwere people alongside other Rivers people alongside Anioma nation came to the conference under the PANDEF umbrella.

The Ohaneze representatives described the entire conference as a charade over the alignment of Ikwere, Anioma and other nationalities from Rivers aligning with PANDEF and thus expressing a desire to be captured under a future Niger Delta region.



So it seems but it never did because you Ibos are hell-bent on restarting your Biafra with the annexation of same SS into it.



No they haven't moved on and the war was fought primarily to annex the SS and SS people suffered the most from that conflict both from you the colonizers who went about genociding and terrorising them into submission and overzealous northern soldiers who were naive to know the distinction between the Ibo and SS minority people.



This statement applies more to you guys who have sown a victimhood toga since the very begining of the war to mask your evil deeds and greed .



If it ended and Biafra is dead and Yiu Ibos have moved on, why is there a clamour for Biafra allover again by your people with the very core motive towards annexing the SS all over again?

Stop gaslighting!
Bros I will buy you a carton of Beer. You got it exactly. How Igbos think that an Ikwerre man will leave his identity to put in his own surprises me. Ikwerre men like Wike, OK Chinda, OCJ Okocha, Chris, including Rotimi Amaechi who has been dribbling them will never accept Igbos because they are not. My part of Ikwerre anyone that has Igbo blood by way of his mother being Igbo is never suited to be the monarch. This has been on for more than a thousand years. Your mother can be from anywhere but not Igbo (Isoma).

Is this one of your handles too.I not surprised. The way u feel about igbos is exactly the same way the drug baron and his wife feel about igbos.
It only gives me joy because I feel worst about your region too.The only truth remains u can never be from SS in this life.And SE should never been in same nation with ur region as they don't have anything in common since imo river. I am just too happy for Atiku plans

If e sure you, go to anywhere in PH and tell them that they are Ibos and that all Rivers is Ibo land ..

Do this in person and not from the safety of the internet.
