My family is from Delta State. Does it make me a Niger-Deltan?
Are you not a Niger-Deltan?

I can sense the insecurity in this Igbo man. Being a true niger deltan is not by state of origin, it is by cultural grouping. Therefore, an igbo man in delta north is not a niger deltan.

God really punish us well in this part of the glob, thou the resources that drives the nations economy is found here but God made sure we are never united, have you seen you seen an housa man from the far north carving out the middle belt saying they are not northerners? Me for example i was born and raised in the north before coming down to the south, i have never seen an housa man from sokoto discriminating against someone from jos or kaduna, even with the yorubas you can hardly tell if a yoruba man is ogbomosho or lagosian or if he is from ibadan, all this nonsence about your tribe, your language or your geographical location is only between the SS/SE, what is it with us from this part? Let me make it clear to all of us we are the minority in this country and the earlir we rialise that the better for us, God bless Nigeria.

Your comment is entirely off point.
Someone is making an inquiry about who is a niger deltan and who is not. This is not about being minority of majority.

Besides, I am an Ijaw man and I am a minority to no one. Good luck being a minority to yourself.
