Pls no bashing , Thank God for the peace we all are experiencing in warri, We all know the issue b/w Urhobo, Itsekiri and Ijaw, this thread is created to promote Peace and unity. Below are some Unique Similarities b/w The Big Three's (Urhobo, Ijaw and Itskeiri).

1. They all love Woman : An Average Urhobo , Ijaw and Itsekiri man loves women, You hardly see them getting married to one wife… I.e polygamous Family

2. Wealth : Apart from oil been located in our land, An Average Urhobo , Ijaw and Itsekiri man is rich, if the ijaws re nt fishing the Urhobo's and Itsekiri are Farming, you hardly see them suffering.

3. Accommodating : we are all accommodating, Have you met with any typical Ijaw , Urhobo or Itsekiri man b4, How was his behavior towards you ?, they love strangers and hardly do you hear them maltreating any body.

4. Funny : Well don't need to emphasis more on this, If you see us alone , You already started laughing, 60% of Nigeria Comedian are either ( Urhobo , Ijaw or Itsekiri)

5. They are not lazy : Hmmmmm, don't Bleep with the big Three's , they are very strong.

6 . Culture : They all have similar culture

7. Well Educated

8. They love alcohol

God bless The Itsekiri Nation
God bless The Urhobo Nation
God bless the Ijaw Nation

The only thing I know about these tribes is that their women are strong and hard working, if u marry them u have the tendency of growing fast in life because they are independent women. As for their men, forget the big names u hear o, they are just lazy and are all womanisers. If you marry their men as a woman, u will die of heart attack

My submission.

Is not about the ijaw people been dubious,but the particular person you worked with.Every tribe has their own good and bad part,but we should not use a person to judge all.

I agree with #3. I was in one of the coastal areas in Bayelsa with a friend that was from there for almost a month several years ago. Even though I'm Yoruba, everyone in the community were very friendly to me.

I got the chance to learn their cultures and ways of life. Some of them were weird to me though, but overall I admit it was a fascinating experience.
I even got to know some of the community leaders back then. Unfortunately those were in the very early days of GSM, so I couldnt have got their contacts. I'm sure they still remember me till now. I guess cos I was the only one that couldn't speak their language whenever we were together.
I think I went back to that Nembe island about 3 or 4 more times after my first visit. I had started seeing a girl I met there and we were cool for almost five years.

Itsekiris are Yorubas abeg
Some may disagree but they are a Yoruboid nation. But their royalty and nobility are of Benin descent. Oba Olua, father of Prince Ginuwa who founded the Ogiame dynasty of Itsekiriland. The Urhobo/Okpe and Isoko are Edoid nations.

lol
guy u funny o, enter igbo land as a yoruba guy and see tribalism in action, or better yet go hausa land as igbo man, wha d guy is saying is true , down south they accomodate far more than the average yoruba, igbo or northerner.

as for wealth, na the east hustle pass o, more so than our south bros

then again iv nt seen any1 more polygamous than a yoruba man........ hausa dey too and d least is an igbo man




but like op said, all these things should be what brings us together learning from each oda in order to strengthen our weaknesses
