Firstly just know that Ijawland starts and ends in Balyesa state, before una carry your fishermen wayo ways to start claiming territory in Rivers state, try that nonsense and the Odi experience will be child's play. Secondly in your land grabbing schemes in any part of Rivers or Delta states, make SURE you steer clear of ANY Igbo speaking territories (I see your long throat don dey reach Obigbo), but thank God your shenanigan and agenda ends here on the internet, the day any Ijaw irritant groups step foot in Obigbo to make trouble, we will revisit the Bakana experience on your people again.

Good luck to you.

If you provoke us even in your Igbo heartland we will deport you. Dem no born una well! When you were making noise in Oyigbo, chief Asari-Dokubo told you to keep quiet and answer python dance in your homeland. Didn't you keep quiet?

Instead of minding your business, when it starts you will say Ijaw people have started.

Why not post the video you useless ogogoro drinking loser! I keep telling you that Ijawland is now Igbo territory, Opobo and Bonny is now ours. We pushed you fishermen out of PH and handed it over to the Ikwerre, now that's a boss move right there you pathetic piece of minority shIt! like I said, una matter na easy one, try any nonsense in any part of Igboland in Rivers and Delta states, and we will send boys from just one local government area (not the whole Igbo nation ooo cause that will just be an overkill) and level the whole Ijaw nation into non-existence. Bring una minority madness enter Obigbo if you still want to exist as a people.

Let me tell u the Ijaw interest.

Carving out other tribes and converting them and their land to Ijaw, whilst screaming Igbo domination.

Wen u take an Igbo man and accustomed him to be Ijaw, is not domination.

I have never heard Igbo people accustomed any group or person to be Igbo.

You got it! Ijaw influence in present Rivers state arose after the civil war. Virtually every history of the riverine clans were falsified as Ijaw. From Bayelsa down to Crossriver and yet the Igbos allowed this nonsense and failed to challenge the land grabbers. In the old Eastern region, Kalabari and not Ijaw was one of the official language recognized. This is why you see a Rex Lawson singing in Kalabari and not some fictional Ijaw language. But the greater Kalabari was subsumed into a mythical Ijaw ethnicity after the war.

The history of Bonny and Opobo has always alternated towards the Igbos, from the founding till now, it remains so. Okpara Ndoli, to Asimini etc where Ndoki in origin. Although I don’t doubt the migration of Ijaw families into the both islands, but the Igbo identity of those areas were pulled down for some useless excuses that Igbos only came as slaves, which is a big fallacy. Igbo bought fellow Igbos as slaves. And Bonny being a gateway to the coast had a lot of Portuguese, Dutch, Spanish, English ships etc waiting to pack slave to the new world.
Majority of Bonny families have been Ndoki’s since day one until the post war revision.

Most of the 17/18 century British history of Bonny made mention of Igbo origin of the Kings. I can find the links online.

Even the Amanayabo these folks claims as their kingship has no meaning in Ijaw language. The western Ijaws call Kings as Pere which is different from the Ndoki word Amanayabo. And it is no doubt that a lot of what the Izons claims as theirs was borrowed from the Igbos. The likes of Bonny, Opobo, Kalabari and Nembe were never Ijaws from day one, forget the falsified history you hear from Ijaw land grabbers.

So you know this, and you still embrace them, eating their faeces, drinking their urine, because you lack ethnic pride and want them in your phantom ethnicHeterogeneous Biafra?

Those of us who scream for Igbo only Biafra have seen what you Ipobians will only see in next 100years, simply by diligently studying the past while matching it with present reality.

Humans are animals of habit, they don't change. You can easily decipher a people current character by studying their past.
I'm a member of more than 5 big Ijaw Facebook pages for up to 5years now, studying the people.
You need to witness first hand the Igbophobia in those places, it makes child play of what is going on in NL.
When you see a Rivers Igbo woman like Amarabae very angry with IPOB heterogeneous Biafra, its because she and her people bear the direct brunt of the minorities Igbophobia, they have first hand experience and know for real that IPOB idea of heterogeneous Biafra with those lots is not only insensitive to the plights of Igbos who share states with these minorities, it is also a public display of folly and delusion.

Nembe people still reject Ijaw identity till today.

Its usually a point of acrimony in Ijaw Facebook pages.
They are pained over it, yet the Nembes on the majority insists they are independent ethnic group and not Ijaw.
Ofcourse some Nembe people identify as Ijaw, but they in the minority, like the Igbo identifying Ikwerres.

Nembe’s are closer to Bonny than the Ijaws. It was even said that they migrated from Bonny to their present location. Nembe language has a lot of corrupted Igbo words in it that is closer to what is spoken in Bonny.

The problem of the Igbos is that unlike the Yoruba’s we had lazy historians who didn’t do more research on Igbo history. Except Dike who Limited his to hear say, the rest idly relied on Nri/Aro/Benin/Izon/Igala wack histories which they lazily incorporated into Igbo history. The was what Nwaezegwu once queried.

Imagine this. The old Aboh kingdom along with the Oru’s may even be the founders of modern Nembe. I once checked some Nembe names and I was surprised to see some Igbo names in them, and when I ask a friend he told me that it use to be much before, but that a lot of their names have overtime being changed from Igbo sounding to a more preferable Ijaw.

A lot of Nembe festivals have Oru links.
1. Owu (Owuogbo) festival in Imo west
2. Eke - Python totem etc.

This why I said that Igbos from beginning were not fortunate to have good historians from day one. All we had is a follow follow write wetin this one write. If much archeological and true history is carried out in a lot of these so-Called Ijaw areas, you’ll be shocked to the findings you’ll unearth.

They are "Ijaws" today, even though they are reluctant to fully embrace Ijaw, but we must accept they are Ijaw and relate with them as such.

The point is that just by pretending minorities don't exist and facing Igboland in this struggle, there is alot of changes our inactivity can effect.

The fact remains that a lot of riverine tribe claimed by the Ijaws were never Ijaws in the past. But time have changed and they’ve succeeded in conscripting these tribes as Ijaws. But no one knows what the future holds. The Bonny, Opobo, Nembe and Kalabari today have never fully accepted that Ijaw ethnic label. It is left for people to allow them make their independent decisions without being forced to do so.

Ijaws have been found out as land grabbers and should desist from such tactics, their intentions are clearly understood by everyone now, the Igbos, Itshekiri and Ibibios understand better now.

You are still doing it.

Let them all be. Itsekiri, Ibibio, Ijaw, etc. There is no difference between them all.

Let them be. Ijaws have not done anything the others haven't done.
They are all trying to survive, you can't blame them. But you shouldn't be stupid to present Ndigbo on a platter for them all to build non existent unity.
Because that's what IPOB are doing by pushing Biafra on them, and you just did it by trying to make it seem Ijaws are the big bad wolf among the minorities, I once held that opinion before, but I know better today.

If any land is barren it is not Ijawland. From a historical context, Igbos, especially Ironsi centralized resources and power. By your decision to go to war you lost the centre. Due to your oppressive actions, part the eastern region voted to join Cameroon in order to prevent further secession you prevented other areas from being able to vote. A greater proportion of what Nigeria calls law today, was adopted from Azikiwe and Ironsi's lawbooks. We are not benefiting as much as the defunct Igbo led eastern region benefited from our oil wealth because of your lies and attitude.
We are suffering from an attempt by the centre to starve Igbos of funds to execute another war and you liars keep lying that the Niger Deltans are Igbos. Based on your propaganda, in a bid to control the excesses of the Igbo, the Niger Delta is suffering.
