Which still means "Children of heaven" in Igbo.

They speak Okrika language and are descendants of Ijaws. So they are Ijaws, not igbos.

Ogu bolo and Okrika in its entirety is a product of Ijaw and Igbo marriage. Ijaw man vs Igbo woman and the trend has continued till this day. So it's natural to notice some influence from the maternal side even though Ijaw based on male definition of ancestry.

Ogu Bolo is not Igbo but Ijaw. Same as Opobo and almost all the other communities that share the same salty water.

Re: Is Ogu-bolo In River State Igbo Or Ijaw?: See Towns And Village Names by Addicted2Women:

We don't give a flying fucck if they're igbo, Hausa or Afghanistan

If you ask them if Rivers state is igbo state, they wil get angry and warn you not to call them igbos

Meanwhile those dumb fuccks have igbo names such as Amechi, Chibuike, Nwike, Nnanna, Ngozi, Onyemechi, Nwene

What are they if they're not igbo ?? Are they Hausa, Yoruba or what ?? Or are they Americans ??


Now tell me the meaning of those names and if they're not igbo names

It's just like having Musa Umaru as my name and then telling you that I'm not Hausa

Those dudes are confused and naturally dumb

We don't want them in our igbo states, they should join the Fulani herdsmen if they want
