The answer is NOTHING! And trust me, the feeling is mutual.

If only some of the iPob youths would be more careful with words and stop creating the impression that the entire SS is Biafran territory.
Then stop crying. No one said Urhobo is part of Biafra.
Stop forming importance.

You and your people are not up to the Aniomas, simple. Most Igbos prfefer an all Igbo nation instead of the present Nigerian arrangement of quota system and crap.
Ndigbo DO NOT need Urhobos.
We'll rather have Idomas, Igala, Efik, Ibibio as allies than you guys. Una too small sef. Go deal with the Ijaws, Itshekiri, Bini before you open your mouth when the great Igbo nation is speaking.

If you want to come up with lies about Anioma population, please at least have the courtesy of doing so with facts and figures na.

Anioma (Delta North) is 1.2million. Delta Central (purely Urhobo) is 1.6m. Delta South (partly Urhobo/Isoko) is 1.5m. So how does this figure translate into Anioma being populated over Urhobos?

You just want to be mischievous and I can see through it.

Better go and align with whoever you want but leave Urhobo out of it?

"... The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.
It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced.
It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom ..."

- President Abraham Lincoln

In memory of the Biafrans who paid the ultimate sacrifice, I pay my humble respects today 30 May 2017.

Omo you daft sha, where are the statistical facts that Igbos indulge in those crimes any more than your Yorubads in that ritual and tongue slashing infested region of yours? Moreso lots of Yoruba riff raffs are involved in all sorts of crimes as well so Kini big deal? And if you must know dummy, economic domination is a larger scale of permeating all factors of making profits, the gala hawkers are the microcosm of the whole idea of financial nuance to create opportunities, isn't than better than been social nuisances like the motor park agbero urchins your people generally excel in

Thats the truth... If you are in the east you will understand better. Majority of people at home are afraid what these lots will do to them if they dont comply. else who in his right senses will close his means of livelihood in this harsh economic times? The Governors have failed in developing the region and you're shouting biafra...

If you have nothing good to say then shut your mouth. The people at home are afraid of who? The same IPOB who are at home too? The same IPOB that has never touched anyone?

I’m heading to Uzoakoli to do battle
I’m heading to Uzoakoli, but My lover cries out, she didn’t want me dead.
My lover begs me to flee,
But who will defend the land When I flee?
My sweet heart begs me to Flee,
But who will do battle when the Hausas come#

With this song Biafran men marched into battle to defend their fatherland as Northern troops led by British tanks and Russian planes invaded their land to continue the Genocide that they started in the North in 1966.

Every Month of May, we Remember Over 45, 000 innocent people, men, women, children of old Eastern Nigeria , butchered in 1966 all over Northern Nigeria just in 3 months in the first govt supported genocide in Africa.

Many were laid on rail tracks and crushed by train, men buried alive, pregnant women had their bellies ripped open,Children clubbed to death, Innocent souls whose only crime was belonging to a different ethnic group and Faith,

To the 45,000 Innocent souls whose blood was used to irrigate the deserts of Northern Nigeria, although the conspiracy of silence continues by most Nigerians, although no monuments are erected, although no atonement has been made for that unprecedented horror,their Blood continue to cry out against this nation, a nation that pretends it never happened - but we, your kins, forced to bury empty coffins, we your brothers-
WE REMEMBER

The Thousands and thousands unaccounted for- in unmarked graves, from Kano to Maidugiri, to Jos to Markudi, to Zaria, to Kafanchan,to illorin,

Although Nigeria sits on these graves and pretends it didn’t happen but we in whose home steads you left empty spaces-
WE REMEMBER

To the he brave hearts who stood up to the British armoured cars with matchetes

Two Boys who shared a riffle so when one fell the other will pick up his gun to defend his freedom. To the men who went into battle with five rounds each and must only shoot when he was sure to kill. The men who laid down their lives so I may live
WE REMEMBER

My three kinsmen who volunteered in Oguta and Ontisha sectors,brave men Who never returned-still on patrol
YOUR FAMILIES REMEMBER

To Bruce Mayrock, an American student who set himself on fire, laid down his life to protest against the Genocide by Nigeria against its own people
WE REMEMBER

Artur Alves Pereira and Count Von Rosen of the Biafran airforce who came to Biafra in protest against the state sponsored pogrom
WE REMEMBER

To Wole Soyinka, who stood alone and insisted” the man died” who kept silent in the face of such a pogrom
WE REMEMBER

Tanzania, Ivory Coast, Zambia and Haiti, nations that hoisted our flags against the silence of the world
WE REMEMBER

All members of the Research And Production unit (RAP),
with no outside help YOU demonstrated that the black man can do wonders if only he looks inwards; Home made armoured cars, rockets, beer from cassava, engine oil from coconut, the Biafran Red Devil (Amoured vehicle), the Shore Batteries, the Ogbunigwes. Your ingenuity, your bravely, today-
WE REMEMBER

To our brave mothers , who cooked and sent to their sons in the trenches, knowing it could be their last meal-
WE REMEMBER

The little boys who went “combing” many returned, many did not
WE REMEMBER

The World Council of Churches, The Caritas, The Red Cross who saved millions of children with food aid, despite the blockade,
WE REMEMBER

Millions of our Children who had no milk and died before their time
WE REMEMBER

Ah! Corporal Nwafor, you took in the hail of bullets from the vandals yet continued your final run towards their armoured car with a grenade in your hand, until you successfully threw the grenade into the troublesome vehicle and disabled it before you let your bullet riddled body fall to the ground and your comrades captured the precious armoured car and renamed it “Copral Nwafor”
WE REMEMBER

Col Patrick Achuzie-, General Alexander Madiebo, Gen. Philip Effiong, Col. Onwuatuegwu, Nkonko Ndem and all brave men who stood in the gap
WE REMEMBER

Odumegwu Ojukwu switched from Ball rooms to Bunkers, leaving behind a tremendous wealth to give shelter to a people faced with death, you turned artisans into fighters and scientists, your mission, to build the first black nation with an indigenous technology.

Under the pressure of mortar shells and in less than three years, you demonstrated that the black man can hold his own, but the whites didn’t seem to be comfortable with an indigenous African technology, so UK and USSR suspended their enmity and empowered their Northern stooge to distract you. The Arab League threw its weight behind the North, the rest is history

General Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu,Eze igbo gburugburu, oguejiofo..
WE REMEBER

May justice prevail, may peace reign, may we NEVER find a need to shed blood,May God open the eyes of this Nation to see that like the blood of Abel, the blood of the innocent Easterners shed needlessly in 1966 calls for atonement and until the Nation collectively owns up to it, it can never be free from this vicious circle.

Nigerian Government are funny sha... IPOB declared a sit at home day in remembrance of her falling heroes and heroines,
You felt you could stop that from happening, then you deployed troops to the South East area where the sit at home is supposed to be...
The people saw Army of soldiers crawling into their towns by night in fierce Army tanks.
Fear grips the People and they decided to sit at home to ensure their safety from the much anticipated sporadic shootings by the Nigerian Army.
Please who made the sit at home possible?

So you are doing selective translation? You know hometown but don't know "Ekuoto", which is even the easiest? and you claim to be Urhobo? You see why I didn't even bother engaging you?

My question is very simple and every Urhobo, even toddlers can answer it.

Ekuoto vor oyi vwon Nurhe?

Oya let me ask you another one to bail you out grin
Idie oyin Ihwo r'Urhobo se Inanadja ovi Oyibo?

I expect the answer in English, incase you don't know how to type Urhobo!

Meanwhile, I used standard Urhobo orthography but you won't know if you aren't Urhobo na..

Why don't you own up to your ethnicity?

I should own up to my ethnicity OK I am Igbo.. I didn't do selective translation, I just decided not to give u any leads.. I'm done with this

A semi-sovereign nation within a nation.
And Nigeria has a president which some people still believes is the best thing since sliced bread. cheesy

Nigeria have never had unity right from the onset and we are so divisive by nature and sectionalism is ingrain in the arrangement called Nigeria.

Some states in the sovereign entity called Nigeria have their own Laws and court different from what is obtainable in other part of Nigeria...

So if a region believe the arrangement is no longer in their favour let them go...

One Nigeria so far is only beneficial to a group of people...It is either there is restructuring through National confab or let people determine how they want to exist...

You just want to be mischievous this morning abi?

Urhobo is the most populous ethnicity in Delta State.

We occupy Delta Central and parts of Delta South. Anioma is JUST Delta North.

Almost all Urhobo LGAs are oil producing but ONLY Ndokwa is oil producing in Anioma?

Urhobos are not known for militancy. That is the forte of the Ijaws.

So what is your point again?


If you are not up to some mischief, you would leave Urhobo nation alone from anything concerning Igbo.
but you forget that animona remains the highest achievers in Delta, who oil epp, abeg shift

I pay respect and give honour to fallen Biafran soldiers who gave their lives for this struggle of self determination 50years ago.
And to all Biafran veterans - deformed, maimed or hale and hearty (including my dad who lost a part of his left phalanges) who are still faithful to the course of Biafra.
God grant Biafran Children eternal rest who died of starvation and bless Biafran children who survived the genocide and are peacefully pursing the struggle today.
Nigeria will one day be bounded in the south east by her neighboring country - BIAFRA.

Thanks for the clarification. We can thus conclude to an extent that the biafran movement is a south east movement. Second challenge is what happens to all the assests of the federal government of Nigeria in the new 2017 biafra ?. From Nigerian police stations to military barracks to federal universities and teaching hospitals among others. Should the federal government just forfeit all these to biafra or will biafra pay Nigeria . How do we solve this problem before we can let the south east go ?

The same thing that happened to British outpost stations when Nigeria gained Independence....

I will never do that. I respect the need for every ethnicity to SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES! That has always been my mantra here. No one should speak for another ethnicity. The only reason I am pushing for Urhobo's exclusion from Biafra is to respect the wishes of the Urhobo people who have made it known before now that they are not interested (www.vanguardngr.com/2015/11/urhobo-denounces-inclusion-in-map-of-biafra/).

And until such a time when another ethnicity will speak FOR or AGAINST the Biafran cause, NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO SPEAK FOR THEM! Until we begin to see protests and agitations in Warri, Abraka, Ughelli, Sapele, Yenagoa, Calabar, Uyo, etc, it is safe to say THEY ARE NOT YET INTERESTED!

As for the Igboid groups in the South-South, they have the right to join their brothers in the struggle for Biafra. I have no qualms with that at all.
Well i am so happy the way you exclude PH from the list. pleas tell your Ijaw neighbors to respect ethnic boundaries like you just did

Just because we don't go around shouting and sitting at homes doesn't mean we are doing nothing.

And I am not fighting against Biafra. I want Biafra to come to actuality, if not for anything but to see how it will be different from Nigeria and how the core Nigerian spirit of corruption will be magically eradicated. I am just being pro-Igboid Biafra! Any Biafra where Urhobos are included will NOT work one way or another and I am only making sure this sinks into the heads of you guys.

So what if I provide you proof that Urhoboland was added into Biafra? What will you do?

Because my anger with Igbos from the very start was the blanket inclusion of Delta (including Urhoboland) into Biafra such as the one found in the map below:
