Guy you have been exposed. No one would make the mistake of saying "I'm from Jaja's compound" when it there's no compound named Jaja's compound. That was a cheap answer you groped out for because you thought it had to be that there's a compound called Jaja's compound
#DIPLOMATICSELFAMPUTATION

What you folks don't know is that the dude Jetjacky was right in a little way. I wanted him to be specific, but he coulnt due to some setbacks. King Jaja is not a war canoe name, but Jaja as a name is. Jajas family has 3 war canoe house, the largest in Opobo.

go to bed Kid

Although I am not a kid, I see nothing wrong in being a kid.
What is really terrible and I can't stand is being like you, Igbo one
And because I am not like you, I am truly grateful, Igbo one

Truckpusher:
Get ready to be deported from Rivers State abeg.

We can't afford to lose the whole of Opobo to these expansionists from the East because of one man's family.

Nodcock.
How many times has it been drilled into you that the whole of Opobo is the personal estate and property of the Jaja family,as ruled by the Supreme Court of Nigeria?.
Opobo is whatever the Jaja family,as represented by the King,say it is.Get that into your head

Thank you for showing us that the elders of Biafra land enjoy no respect in Biafra. Little to no respect from younger to older (even elders) in Igbo society.

Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of Elders of Rivers State, whose respect remains intact especially in traditional matters as they declare the position of their people on traditional issues like this.

See this kindagarten trying to sound informed. Real elders do not react the way those men reacted. Abandoned Property Claimers Elders Association. Leave igweocha and oyigbo ALONE! Your so called "river elders" will not steal this one.

Jetjacky:
lol sorry to sink your ship, I don't need to delve into my family history to satisfy your doubts...

But let me satiate it a little. I'm from Jaja's compound... And so you know in case you are naive not all opobos knows of their Kingdom heritage, mostly those who did not grow up in their home.

So no one gave you the right to call a true son of the land an imposter, if you followed it up and came to that decision then your mind had only grasped a one sided story of my land.

.and here ends the chapter, I'm no cry baby who who would loud it to the world so they believe him. Besides I don't gain anything from you if you believe me or not, so there.

You still ma bro sha

You atr a LIAR my guy. Yoou can't even answer ANY of the question. I'm sorry but I know impostors when I see any from afar... Your not "growing up in Opoboland is invalid excuse". Heck, you even live in Aba.

Who was Opobo named after? How did Opobo Kingdom even come about? Which family/compound are you from? Do you know who Opubo is? Trust me, no Opobo son will reason like this. I will advice you not to carry on with this impostoric claim before you get embarrased my gee.

BTW: Type Opobo and cite its history from ANY source... You should quit this dude. You still be my guy sha

kel4soft:
You are not from Opobo. What is, am from Jaja's compound? In fact no one is from just Jaja as a compound . That is why I asked you of your war canoe house.

I toldd you that he has no clue on what canoe house is. He's an Igbo boy. He doesn't even know that everybody from Opobo(and all Ijawland are from a canoe house). I even saw Jaja compound hahaha

Truckpusher:
You see ya life?

These Igbos will call you 'onye mba miri' when the chips are down

I know them like the back of my hand.

The dude is NOT from Opobo. He has NO clue! Bros, I grew up in Lagos(which you are well aware of), but there are basics that everyone should know. He knows not his Wari sef. He doesn't even know what Wari means....


And he lives in Aba!

Meanwhile, let's bone these IPOB touts and do soemthing else - They are already hallucinating that it's one man that's running our accounts.

Let's forgive now that we've told them the truth, after all we all have one common oppressor.

As for forgive? I hold nothing against anybody or group. Everyone should answer their father's name. The ND have their own interest and the only oppressor I know is the Nigeria system. I don't know who theirs is but it's their business.

melzabull:
you and AK horsefall are mad. Who is he to speak for the people of rivers state? do you realise there are indigenous Igbo in rivers? who as a matter of fact a the majority ethicicity in rivers. If chief Horse needed respect, he would have spoken for only his Ijaw tribe. Continue to see Igbos as your problem while your oppressors continue to trample on you unreasonable idiottts. Nonsense!

My dear don't mind the Fulani slaveboy infected with Stockholm's syndrome

I thought you would have dropped this ND nonsense by now and focused on your ijaw alone with the way things are going now? Anyway what do I know.

Show me an IPOB protesters in the street and I'll show you TANOID supporters before the election.
Show me the biafra agitators on nairaland and I'll show you those who were busy before the election typing GEJ till 2019 on nairaland.
Meanwhile, it is hardly possible to build anything if frustration, bitterness and a mood of helplessness prevail.

you are definitely correct.

Hallucination 101.
No inch of ONELGA or Ahoada belongs to Biafra or the Igbos and you can pay your transport back to that area and do your own survey and not ranting here with lies and half truth to sound smart even as your comment is filled with monumental olodoism .

^^^Do yourself a favor and shut da fuc/k up! You sound more desperate with every subsequent post on a topic which as a Yoruba man you should be watching from the sidelines!

I'm Igbo....i'm from Rivers State (i know.....blame Gowon for that).....and i'm in full support of what Biafra stands for!

The mistake you meddlesome bastards usually make is that you equate Biafra to secession and nothing more! Biafra represents freedom of choice...freedom for a people to determine their own destiny....freedom from being shackled in the same country with conniving, evil scum like you!

So just shut up!

Did you listen to Anku Briggs this morning on 95.1? I suppose she was your representative at the National conference.
Do yourself a favour, prepare to relocate to the South East if you so love Biafra.
The position of Niger delta is clear, they are anti Biafra, if your political juggernauts and elders have adopted that position, who the fvck are you?

Klinee:
Mehn every SS people in onitsha act and claim igbo even benin,urhobo, ijaw ,calabar,ogoja. Come to onitsha, who care where u come from.

Obviously you have no idea where Onitsha is, I won't indulge you, afterall most of you are better off ignorant.

But igbos dont discriminate.

Nnamdi Kanu has brought ridicule to his people by joining tribes to Biafra he didn't even ask their permission. So his plan is to fight to force these tribes to join Biafra? Or how did he intend to do it without asking for their permission

You are just meandering dude. The so called river elders should not speak for the entire river state, particularly oyigbo and igweocha. They should be specific about their tribe/ethicity ....abandoned property thieves.

[size=13pt]I am trying to explain to you why you do not understand the traditional structure and place of chiefs and elders in Rivers State, trying to show you that it is because you did not even have chiefs in your own culture. So that kind of people organisation is beyond the reach of your mind. You do not have any respect for traditional chiefs/elders because even the chiefs you have, it was the white man who came and installed them for you.

As for Oyibo, on the outskirts of Port Harcourt, I personally think it should be classified as Igbo but I refrain from talking about that most times because the people there denounce Igbos and I know that is not my problem.

Finally, everyone knows Port Harcourt was built by the British and that is spans across several ethnic groups, the Ikweres, Okrikas, and Ogonis mainly.

When the British brought in labourers from Ohafia to work on the railroad they were building in Port Harcourt, Ohafians began referring to the place where the British were taking their sons to work as Ụ́gwụ́ Ọ́chá meaning Hill of the white man. How does that make Ikwere land, Okrika and Ogini yours? Did your fathers live and die there?
If they did, where are their burial sites?

Now you brazenly try to steal in daylight, and everybody is seeing you and you have no shame about it. As other people (Tivi, Boko, Efik, Igala and all the other Nigerian tribes) read this thread on Nairaland don't you think their impression of you as thieves is getting more and more concretized in their minds?

All this boils down to the non-nation that Igbos were in the past. Only clans and villages. No chiefs, just fragmented communities bringing the social structure deficiencies of the past to smear on your modern day image

You are a NON ENTITY. who are NDI ICHIEs in IGBO land? Look eh, just don't embarrass yourself the more with your fake story.

Seasoned historians know the story of igweocha even before the advent of the white man, you cannot change history. My community in UMUAHIA is sometimes called AlaOCHA, and it has nothing to do with white men. AniOCHA in delta state has nothing to do with the white men, it means a cleansed or purified land, SIMPLE! igweocha/igwuocha HAS NO CONNOTATION to white men whatsoever. Its simply referred to as a cleansed or purified place or people...SIMPLE! keep your fake story elsewhere, it won't sell here dude.

McCall, John Christensen (2000).

I have read your source and guess what ugwu ocha was ugwu ocha before colonialism came into the place. According to oral history, it was NOT named because of the white men, that's just mere input of a school of thought, not real oral history. Igwuocha was more of a "pure" place than a white man's domain. The white man thing was a LATER INPUT.

BRANDING MYSELF? you quoted a book like it was some FINAL AUTHORITY and expect me to swallow it? What was igwuocha's name before the white mans advent? Honestly answer this question. YOU ARE QUOTING FROM ONE SOURCE and conclude that that is all about ugwuocha...how scholastic indeed!

It was NOT named ugwuocha because of white men, that is distorted history, which has since been corrected. It was ugwuocha because of the coastal purity of the area. It used to be a diobu area rich in agriculture and intersected by cliffs. Its richness and purity brought about the name igweocha, NOT BECAUSE OF WHITE MEN, that narrative has since been debunked.
