Truckpusher:
To the best of my knowledge I have answered that question several times on this thread and on a similar thread.

I do not have time to be educating you and some of your ignorant folks all day long.

If the Igbos had the same opportunity they would have done worse.You were beaten at your own game of trying to subjugate and corner for yourself a region with the highest economically viable resources ,the North and the South west ganged up against you ,defeated you and took it as a war booty - I'm a victim of circumstances, all thanks to your unbridled greed and selfishness that knows no boundaries.

Largas:
You were asked a question and you answered with unwarranted insults.

Speaks mighty of your level of education and ignorance.

Truckpusher:
Of course I have also supported the Igbos especially on the policies of subjugation that has been made and not being made to ensure that the Igbo man achieve his full potentials in this country or simply allow them to determine their destiny as they wish .But deliberately allowing your greed to call Port Harcourt an Igbo land is an insult that will never be tolerated - If I have an Igbo wife today and she says the same thing I will divorce her right away.

Obiagu1:
How could you ask me if I understood when you just finally came to your senses
You just re-echoed by position which is completely different from you earlier position hence this thread.

Obiagu1:
Would you accept the Ikwerre renaming Ikwerre part of PH Igweocha?

FREEDOM4BIAFRA:
I've figured Mr.
http://www.nddc.gov.ng/about%20us.html
The NDDC is a commission set up to monitor and speed up developmental process in the NIGER DELTA REGION.

Truckpusher:
Some iidiotic questions deserve a classic insult laced with the bitter truth.

Thank God you replied with all the evidence of a man that has swallowed the bitter pill.
Thank you....

kingsolex:
honestly Niger delta would have been better off without these three parasites all cause greed replaced some peoples brain.

Largas:
Your actions towards the gang-up of North and West sucking your oil with oil pipes drawn from ND to Lagos is an iidiotic question?

Now I very much understand why this siphoning would continue.

And for your information, insults come from the uneducated. I wouldn't join you to stoop that low.

Truckpusher:
How old are you?

Obiagu1:
I don't know your ethnicity but maybe you can help answer the question I asked Tonye.

Would you support the Ikwerre renaming their part of PH Igweocha?

carnegiefan:
Some of my brother here have never contested for landed property before, obviously. haha.
How can you EVEN THINK of ceding what history says that you own?
If you cede what history says that you own, why would your opponent allow you to own anything?
Once you show that thoughtless concession, you lose respect and your opponent sees you as ready meat for taking.
Nna did anybody actually think this proposal through at all?
Nigeria is bad o, but I don't think it is bad enough for me to sell my father's lands including the "ime obi" land.
Concession on land is a slippery slope; concede one, you concede all!

Honestly I respect Yoruba on this type of thing.

Yoruba took effective charge of Lagos (whether Awori and Egun) claim Yoruba or not.
I sometimes don't understand Igbo kind of weak thinking.

Anyway, let me assume that the proposal will never see the light of day.

EasternLeopard:
You are wrong


It is you who never understood my position



Ikwerres don't believe they are Igbos. So if sacrificing PH is what will hasten Biafra so be it.


To me Igbos should forget PH until the Ikwerres take their Igboness very serious.

Truckpusher:
That's exactly where we find ourselves today, surrounded by greedy tribes and people with no sense of good and lack morals and exist side by side with others - We are children of circumstances,but we must remain focused and I wish that the era of the crude oil and gas should just go as that will give the people a serious challenge to enable us look into ourselves inwardly and make something out of ourselves .

We will stop looking for what we can dig out of our soil to survive ,this is the future.

TonyeBarcanista:
If Ikwerre decide for to call their part Igweocha or anything, I will respect it as long as it remains their part. In fact, I will also move for the renaming of our (Ijaws/Okrika) own part if possible to reflect our ownership.


EU is a body for European Country, but Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Serbia etc that are located in European region aren't 'members' of EU.

UEFA is a body for Footbal Association in Europe but israel that's located in the Middle East is a member.

UN is a body of countries of the world but Japan isn't a member.

Does that make Russia not Eurpe? Does that make Israel an european country? Does that make Japan non-existing?

Same way it doesn't make Ondo, Imo and Abia as Niger Deltans irrespective of their membership of NDDC.

musKeeto:
Stop talking nonsense, MR. Google. Niger Delta has always been a part of the Eastern region of Nigeria. Your google no search reach that side?

ARIZONA123:
. Tonye shvt up! Tobias don buy market oo. His picx will flood here soon. Thank you

FKO81:
Left for me I care less about PH, I only care about those Igbos among them that Identify wif us, Opobo, Echie, Oyeigbo etc. Onitsha boosts of more individual infrastructures, industries, markets than PH, I see PH as city of crisis in future because most of their youths believe in handouts from oil companies or governments, a city that it monthly allocations covers southeastern allocation for a year, there is nothing on ground. I know when the time comes UN will know how to handle it

TonyeBarcanista:
Eastern Region was only drawn in 1954. The Niger Delta as a region has been a region before the 15th century. Pls read to get yourself educated.

Truckpusher:
Port Harcourt belongs to Rivers people EOD.

Obiagu1:
Guy you are confused.
Are you Ikwerre to speak for the Ikwerre?

How could you open a thread like this asking the Igbo to forfeit PH when the Igbo never claimed PH in the first place? Seriously, you can maintain a logical sequence in your argument.

Igbo talk of PH based on how the provinces are organized both by Lower Niger Congress and by IPOB.
All Igboid groups are under one province same as all Ijoid and all Ibiboid and all Edoid groups.

So what is the meaning of your thread?

Largas:
If Ikwerre would agree to rename their part of PH to Igweocha, fine. But the problem is they don't want to be identified as Igbos no matter the level of attributes they share with Igbos. This I know from the number of them I know here in Uyo.

They might willingly rename Ikwerre part of PH to Igweocha, but they are unwilling to be identified as Igbos not to mention Biafra.

And if that's the case, then Biafra must me made a non - Igbo affair where minorities are recognized and accepted for what they want to be known for or we have an independent Republic of Igbo containing Igbos who identify themselves as Igbos (of course Ikwerres don't identify themselves as Igbos).

This is from my observations as I relate with some of them. I may not be speaking the truth but it is an observed fact.

EasternLeopard:
Our protest in PH was misconstrued to mean we want to steal a land belonging to Ikwerre and Okrikans

kingsolex:
well said bro, that's the future true potentials have been buried cause of oil money and all that. Nigerian polity is over heated everybody's eye is on oyel money no body is looking inward with keen interest to other productive part. which is very wrong and will be of adverse negative effect in the long run.

omonnakoda:
Ikwerre people are are liberty to do with those parts of PH that they own. This is exactly what they did in 1970 and some people were crying ABANDONED PROPERTY. Who were the abandoners and who were the abandonees.

Obiagu1:
Fair enough.
So we don't have any issue in the first place and your earlier thread on IPOB was not necessary.
Igbos lay no claim to your part of PH and are free to protest in Ikwerre part of PH.

Obiagu1:
Sorry go back to your Yoruba thread.
Igbos avoided it like a plague so avoid ours.
Thank you!

Truckpusher:
And this has been my anger with the myopic so called criminal elites that are parading themselves as leaders in the Niger Delta.

I don't see the reason why these leaders of these minority people can't strive to give their people the best educational system that would prepare them for the future and ensure that what their population can't do can be compensated with education which can go a long way in correcting those ills which will usher in a generational shift that would define their fate in a country where they have an oppressive regional force from the North , South west and an Expansionist agenda from the South East.

Honestly, I can't wait to see an educated Niger Deltan that has all to gain, and nothing to lose, wake up and put a bullet into the head of any Niger Delta leader who wants to use the Niger Delta resources and her peculiarity with the Nigerian state as a platform to kick start his political career abandoning his primary responsibilities. We shouldn't fold our hands and watch these people turn our people to thugs and criminals in their own land.
