Ikwerres are not igbos. We should only focus on the Igbos that identify with us like the oyibos, asa people etc. the rest can do whatever they want.

You cannot be embracing anyone who has consistently denied you since 1970s.
Lord bless you... Now Ikwerre are begging to be igbo

But they are not ..

If anything, the Delta Igbos need the East, imagine them being stuck in an Ijaw dominated country. It would be like old Rivers State where the Igbo groups had no pull and were relegated to the back. It was the SE that created Rivers & Bayelsa to give their brethren some breathing room, the last thing Delta Igbos want is to be returned to another situation where they get the hatred for being Igbo without the majority tribe status, that's a net loss for them. If anything, a branch needs the tree to withstand the wind.

In regards to resources, the gas in the SE will generate trillions over the next 80 years, if the nation splits today, this will be exclusively in the hands of the SE, which will hep in creating an economic base for a new nation. Most likely, Akwa Ibom and Cross River, will look to join their brothers in the SE as they did in the past when the SE took the lead to form their own nation.

Despite Asaba being the capital of Delta State for decades now, the succeeding governors from Delta South and Central never did anything tangible there because they were angry that Warri was not made the capital, instead they were channelling resources to other parts of the state including semi rural areas instead of the capital. Asaba had to rely mainly on its proximity to Onitsha to grow, and Igbos made it the Nollywood capital of Nigeria. Today, Asaba is bubbling and a prominent Anioma son even came out openly to say that private Igbo investors East & West of the Niger has helped the city. Even the Asagba of Asaba is a pan Igbo nationalist same as most of their prominent sons & daughters like Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, Pat Utomi, Tony Elumelu etc. It's only a fraction of them that still believes in their Benin origin myths, & those ones are free to join Benin but Asaba & its environ will always go with East.

As for Ikwerre, they've always claimed to be Beni people who lost all their heritage. I'm even happy they won't be coming with us because they've baggages that will distract us. They are sharing P.H with Ijaw people, so they joining us will mean bringing them along which we should avoid totally. P.H and Warri will be flashpoints & coupled with the mangrove terrain of the surrounding areas, these areas will be a haven for rebel movements and instability which will hamper the progress of any nation. For our own good, we will build a high fence after Obigbo.

If the Akwa-Cross are passionate on joining us, we can negotiate terms with them as partners, otherwise they should face front.

My brother, we are already blessed as a people and we have everything we need as a people to run a prosperous nation.

I won't argue with you on the yoruba towns you'll meet before Ilorin. Infact those towns are more yoruba than most of the yoruba towns I've met but the Ilorin own is quite different and peculiar based on the influx and establishment of the fulanis who are permanent residents of that place
How many Ilorin indigenes are even fulanis? Most are core yorubas.

Thank God for Igbos all over who adopted Asaba as their new Enugu and invested heavily in that city. They were trying to marginalize Asaba because it was made capital but their plans didnt work.

I have igbo friends from all over that own lands and buildings in Asaba. In fact I bought my land in Asaba from a man from Abia state. His mother lives in Asaba.

I have seen aerial videos of Asaba and I am really impressed with its rapid growth.

Let the insults towards Igbos flow but what the OP said is the undiluted truth.

Thats the reason so many Igbos dont support Nnamdi Kanu's version of Biafra.

If biafra means forming a nation with SS, then lets all stay and perish in one Nigeria. No Igbo man wishes to suffer any false marginalization cries. We have suffered enough already and wish to rest for once.

The day Nnamdi kanu will decide to make IPOB an Igbo only affair is the day he will get the real support he desperately needs.

Marginalisation cries would continue, even with a South East only Biafra. Even now Igbos from other states see Anambra people as too domineering and arrogant. The big Igbo states downgrade Ebonyi and its people, etc. Anambra and Imo look at each other with suspicion, etc. Ebonyi people, for example would never feel like they are getting a fair deal in a Biafra that may be dominated by Anambra, Imo, Enugu and Abia, and so forth.

There are fundamental issues that need to be addressed in order for Biafra to happen and to make sense, but these issues are too vexed and too complicated to satisfactorily address in the near future. That's why I have always insisted that there is no need for Biafra, Niger Delta Republic, Oduduwa Republic, etc.

A Republic of Southern Nigeria is sufficient for now. Just cut off the Jihadist Fulani/abokki North and trust me, the rest of Nigeria would blossom in spite of its numerous ethnicities. That is a more practicable option than disintegration into several micro republics.

The problem of SE, is majorly you don't take responsibility for your own failure. You always hold another tribe/ region responsible for your failure
. Perfect truth,anytime my brothers from east fall inside guitar they look around, anybody they see whom they will blame. After series of abuse towards Yoruba in the past few time, Nnamdi Kanu said is was donating Soldiers and even ordered sit at home. All those things even if it is irrelevant Yorubas did no talk or abuse KANU or the Igbo's. Without stress further if it is Igbos you will hear different abuse like we don't need you people, betrayal,saboteurs and so on,forgetting that every failure of any struggles,the main saboteurs are always for within.

Kwara is a Northern state, solidly middle belt. Let's not forcefully join a group of people who have made it clear that they belong and are comfortable in the North. Recently, economic migrants from the SW have come into the fringes of the southern-most part of the state, however they are not indigenes.

They come in from the SW and speak their language, thus giving the appearance that there are speakers of that language in high number, but the stae is truly a Fulani state with other northern elements.

the Igbos don't need the SS because they add nothing to us. The SE is not landlocked the azumili river in between akwa ibom and rivers can serve as pathway way to sea the Igbos can easily create a seaport there obuaku in abia state is closer to the sea than Porthacourt yet there is a seaport in PH. if Nigeria break up they won't be any thing like niger Delta republic. Nobody will want to be in an ijaw dominant country the Efik/Ibibio will form their own country and the ijaw and ikwerre will form their niger Delta republic. so nobody can claim the water since it is in-between two countries and since it comes from imo we have the right to dredge it(only to deepen we can't dredge to widen because we will be entering another country's land and we don't need it because the river is big). we have oil but not in large quantities so we won't be oil dependent and Most of Nigeria gas reserves is in imo and abia. And the world is going green due to climate change so very soon oil might become useless. I think is very good because we Igbos are business driven and we understand each other so we can easily develop our country and since the SE is small it won't take us much time and money. If we create a country with the SS it may been a smaller Nigeria and instead of Boko Haram we will have militants and the SS we just be screaming our oil money everyday. and instead of launching satellites we will be trying to stop the ijaw itshekeris and urohobo from killing themselves over who owns warri.

this thread just proves that the so called we SS and our Oyel money gang and the attaché by force musicians are not angry that we are joining them in the so called ipob version of Biafra they just don't want to see the Igbos prosper see how they are crying in this thread

Lol, are you sure you're not the one reasoning emotionally instead of rationally? Both Illorin and the surrounding areas i.e. present day Kwara will go to the North, this would be based on its historical affiliations. I gave you an example with Benin republic, ethnicity is not enough for in allocating regions/zones to where they would belong, otherwise Yorubas in Benin would have been in Nigeria!

I'm not saying you people can't contest it, but what I'm saying is that it could lead to war between you guys and Arewa, and they would fight like wounded lions because of their anger at Nigeria's breakup.

Fair point but I won’t underestimate Yorubas and their ability to win Fulani in a war as they have done before especially if they have resources at their disposal

Don't say what u don't know, was it the people that moved into ilorin that give emir of ilorin a yoruba name? They also gave Agboola Gambari his name, fulani in ilorin are not even up to 40%,dont just sit in ur house and pull data from lala land, I've never seen anywhere where the emir address ilorin people with any language other than yoruba, did sw people also force him to do that? Hausa/Fulani don't abandon their language, instead they will come to ur land and force u to speak theirs, example are kaduna, Jos, Nasarawa etc, but ilorin case is different, They speak Yoruba in ilorin because they are the majority. About the pictures u posted, that isn't fulani dressing/culture, that is Islamic dressing, turban is not part of fulani culture and emir title isn't fulani title, u can do some research yourself
