I hail from Egbema ONELGA Rivers:
The SE got my vote, they've proved their trust this past decade. Other people may differ, but this is strictly my own opinion. However to answer the main question, I think we are our own enemies. We are the chief cause of our problem. Thanks.

There are already millions of Igbo indigenes in the SS.
In fact Igboids in the SS are more in number than Ogonis, so the poser you came up with, may not make much sense to them as they are already indigenous to the SS. Of course majority of Igboids are in the SE.

Representing edo state. The problem with the south south is that politically, we have not been sincere with ourselves. Like somebody said earlier, there is too much selfish interest and individualism (i can do it all by myself attitude) entrenched in the mentality of the leaders. In the absence of true leaders, we have thrown up people like james ibori, lucky igbinedion, asari dokubo, tompolo, GEJ,Timipriye sylva etc. Out of all those i have mentioned, which one could fill the shoes of past leaders like Adaka boro, ken saro wiwa, Anthony enahoro? Your answer is as good as mine. It all boils down to lack of unity and dearth of leadership. If we respect ourselves and show purpose, the other regions would reciprocate. Finally, there is more to the niger delta than crude oil. Its high time we inculcate the culture of common sense, self education and drop the culture of hooligalism and thuggery.

My wife is from South-South, I hope I'm qualified. The problem of SS is strong attachments to ethnicity and community issues. There's too much division along my community, my group and businesses are relocating to more secure places. Ijaw, Itsekiri, Urhobo, Ibibio, Anang, Ogoni, etc. Even within communities, this quarter, that quarter. Oil companies are moving deep offshore where they'd operate in peace. Pipelines are vandalized and businesses disrupted and no one cares. Training center for oil workers is in Ogere, Ogun State another is in Ipara, same Ogun State. $5 billion fabrication yard is being sited in Badagry, Lagos. Politically, the Niger Delta acts as if it doesn't need other groups. You need to reach out and make friends. In democracy, what matters is numbers. The Yoruba just partnered with the North to gain power at the center. How many votes can the SS and SE muster in free elections. Our problem is not with the gods but with ourselves.

Rep. Edo
Our problem is d fact that we push d blame 2 other region esp. d north wen actually our leaders are d cause of all our pain
Case study 1. Tompolo d so called freedom fight got rich while d ijaw nation in delta remained poor... He got 1.5billion naira monthly ; hw did he empower his pple through it.... And y did his fight for freedom stopped as he got rich.
Case study 2. Asari dokubo who loved d niger delta so much built a technical higher institution in benin republic, wat happened 2 building dat sch in bayelsa.
Case study 3. Wat have we don with d 13% we gt.
Case study 4. Who many times has a SS senator or Rep. stand to agitate 4 thru federalism or resource control... They prefer to seat and remain mute while dey collect allowance and wat have dey don with d constituency vote dey gt; nothin.
Caae Study 5.A gov claimed he built a word class hospital bt travelled abroad(not dat he was evn injured) for bed rest.
The list is endless, we re our own enemies and until we start demanding true statesmanship and good governance from our senators, governors and political big names we wud remain where we are and kip blaming d north.
Finally d enemy called "Youth movement and community interest groups" shud be whipped out of SS cos all dey cause is trouble and inter/intra tribal conflict.

Respect to all.

Where in Ogoni do you come from and besides do you speak for yourself only or you're the Ogoni mouthpiece?

Let me start with Ogoni..Ogonis are the biggest problems with themselves..They malign each other and always wish for the downfall of their fellow.

Look at the Unep implementation and the way some Ogonis are standing in the way, trying to subvert the process for personal gains and subjecting the larger population to continous hardship.

When Ogonis have sorted themselves, they can then look for other enemies.

And "we SS" is one hugely disjointed concept.

Our real enemies is nothing but that idiot in our heads tellung us that we have enemies..

yes, we have been marginalized, yes our lands have been polluted.

We have been blessed with 13% derivation from our OIL, we have the freewill to demand total federalism within our land..

For me, I think we the southsouth people and substantially the yorubas are the greatest enemy of the south south region.

Look at it this way, yorubas are responsible for the media propaganda about south south origin and history and some of we the south southerner are so gullible to adopt their lies.

Until the people of South south find their route and integrate well with it, Yoruba's will always be an enemy.

Number one Enemies are Yorubas followed by traitors like Amaechi.

As far as I am concerned the Hausa/ Fulani are just hustling to survive on our resources and as long as we are in no position to oppose them then they will continue.

You can never have better brother in Nigeria than the Igbos. Yoruba is your number one enemy. They claim SS on this forum and insult Igbos to keep us apart.

They have used propaganda to remove your brother. They made you believe the Igbos want your oyel but they are the one in charge with their fulani masters.

If you are looking for your problems, remove Igbo man who is in his 2x2 shop in Onitsha and Ariaria or the one that trekked through Sahara, crossed over to Spain, now in maybe Denmark.
He is not your problem, he doesn't own your oil well, the one in his state, he left everything for peace to reign, he is not the one using media to cause discord within you and peaceful neighbours who have shared common heritage with you for thousands of years.

That's all..


Your problem is you, you bought lies and fake stories, you left your enemies and faced imaginary enemies who in truth are not.
You left "strength in unity" to "strength in they are after our oil".

Check the history of everyone who has opposed true federalism, resource control, self-determination.
Then check your history of "our oil" mentality.....

E go help you small.

Im an Anambra man so I won't speak or answer for the SS. But if you need a pointer on how to answer that question, just take another look at the voting pattern in tha last presidential election in which a south-South man was one of the main contenders and you will get all the answers you need

I take exception to you calling me a liar. That said, I don't have to prove my identity to you. If the truth hurts you, deal with it. If I was fixated on ethnic issues, I won't marry from the ND. You can't develop the Delta when Ogoni 8 is fighting Ogoni 12, Ijaw vs Itsekiri vs Urhobo. Okpe vs Uvwie. Anang vs Ibibio. There's too much individualism here. Try floating any business and you'd spend more time negotiating community quota and ex-gratia payment than in running the business. You wonder how a warm, friendly and fun-loving people can't get their acts together for the benefit of the community.

kITATITA, there's no way you can ever be an Igbo. Since you guys know that many of your views are far from being prejudice-free you mischievously choose to hide under some other tribe to buy some legitimacy and appear to be sincere and objective.

The accumulated lies, falsehood and propaganda you've been churning out over the decades is nauseating already.
You guys should desist from your shameless impersonations. It's so pathetic!

Mr. Elumelu is a sour taste who was part of the class that held the economy captive under GEJ administration. He's been trying hard to impose himself on Buhari administration; always finding a way to turn up where ever the president is discussing with business leaders. Mr. Elumelu, like his counterparts who manipulate the system at the expense of the people should just leave us alone and go with what they've taken.

Thank you for this post. This rent seeking mentality of the average ND community is another great obstacle to socio-economic development in the region. Warri, agbor, bayelsa, benin, brass, ogoni and all over. Genuine development will continue to elude the south south if there is no change in the mentality. GEJ's accidental stint in aso rock produce very little despite the enormous opportunity that was presnted on a platter of gold.

I'm from Edo state from Oriohimwon LGA and my hometown is iyokoriowon. My hometown shares a boundary with igbanke and delta north. I'll say I'm Edo cos my father is an Edo man. The problem with the south south are the Hausas, igbos, Yorubas and finally ourselves. These three major ethnic groups are the reason we are reason behind the poor state of Nigeria today. The Hausas/fulanis are power drunk and parasites , the yorubas are cunning, opportunists and parasites while the igbos are greedy and will do everything to attach themselves to us by force. We are also our own problems. To start with we don't like each other. We can't even stand each other. We are the goose that lays the golden egg but yet we are still backward. Our leaders are not helping issues too. If we want to be heard, we all have to be one cos a house divided amongst itself cannot stand. Want we need is true federalism and 100% resource control and not secession.

My RECURRENT ENEMIES are the FULANIS.

My APPARENT ENEMY is GEJ...

Finally, my NATIONAL ENEMIES are those POLITICIANS /NIGERIANS who have always ensured that the NIGERIAN state remains arid and yields nothing good.

MAY GOD and DEVIL punish them.

FULANIS always think they solely have the penchant for destruction of Lives and properties.
This goes on unabated.
They CONTRIBUTE mayhem, poverty, begging, teenage marriage, Ignorance to the Nigerian state.

GEJ was a mirage to his people.
