This guy talk like a tout yet he claims to be a lawyer. This statement is very very uncalled for because Igbo people are indigenous in Rivers State. Forget those having identity crisis!!!

Since the so called indigenous people can't speak out to defend their heritage, I go with the statement. Rivers is not part of us any longer.

onyidon22:
Igbos are welcome in a state they ate indigenous to?
What an effrontery!

Wike, nor matter how much you try to distort fact, you can never succeed.
We all know that you and your kinsmen are Igbos. Every evidence supports that and you can't deny that.
You must feel the consequences of your actions

I presume that you've never been to Ph before? It is easier for an igbo to be accepted in sambisa forest than that place. Those guys are highly Igbo phobic and won't waste time to show you. Don't allow Igbos to fool you. Most of them haven't stepped a foot in Rivers state.
This is the reason why ipob is not popular in Anambra state. They have no self respect.

HonourableUche:
This statement is a slight on the indigenous Igbos of Rivers state. People of Afam, Oyigbo, Ndoki etc. Do you tell an indigene that he's welcome in his home state?

Why not wait and see if the so called igbo indigenes in Rivers state to come out and counter Wike if truly there are indigenous people in Rivers state?

But it’s only you igbo migrants that keep ranting

After killing them abi?

One day God will make you meet an Anambra indigene so that you will learn who Ndigbo are and how they carry themselves. Ofeke

I don't understand, isn't Rivers Igbo State

Igboid:


You lack commonsense.

Wike and Ikwerre people are not Igbos. Peeps like you without sense of group dignity is exactly why Wike and his Ikwerre people are using Ndiigbo to wipe the floor.
Grow a brain biko.

How exactly is it your concern if Fulani are draining oil wealth in Rivers state?
Why are you crying more than the bereaved, where are your senses?

Wike and his people think Igbos are their problems, why won't they, when peeps like you have refused to grow up. You seem to suffer from a form of Stockholm syndrome.

Ikwerre under Ogbakor Ikwerre had made it clear they are not Igbos, Ikwerre people on the average are the most Igbophobic group you will find out there. Wike again demonstrated it by killing Ndiigbo in Obiigbo, yet your brain cannot get the message.
You are still here saying Wike is an Igbo man, are you retarded?

Spot on ! I hope they have the brain to understand your points here.

Commonsense99:

Ezenwo Wike, an igbo man from ikwerre extraction, is now saying Rivers, a state with over 50% igboid indigenes, will be home to igbos?
Can't you see the stvpidity in his politically motivated self induced identity crisis,?
what Ojukwu called intentional amnesia

Meanwhile zamfara is still selling their own gold while people like Wike whose relatives are guarding pipelines for Fulanis still believes his igboid neighbours are his problem.

word on marble.

Hahahahaha after you don reset their brains

Karlovich:
Wike is an ignorant fool

Is that because he says he is not an Igbo man ?

IkwerrePikin:

Many of them called on live media program and said they're indigenous Igbos. They were very angry...

opuambe:
How is rivers State 50% igboid ?

The same reason why "Lagos is no man's land" !

Bkayyy:

They are many ethnic groups in Rivers State but Wike putting it in a way that depicts Igbos as strangers in Rivers State is very bad. Delta State is a heterogeneous State and Igbo also lay claim to the State being their ancestral heritage.

that is how tiny ur sense of reasoning is ,if they said they are not igbo automatically they seized to igbo abi? Most of us would have love to come America bro.

HonourableUche:

Many of your igbo migrants you mean?

Don’t the so called igbo indigenes have traditional rulers?

So they can’t make common press release?

You see that it’s your igbo brothers having sleepless night over Rivers state?

You guys are simply attach by force. No shame

Wike statement emphasized his stand that igbo are visitor in rivers state. He also let them know that rivers state will not allow land grappers.

Dreadful:
Governor Wike are you not Igbo?
Foolish fulani stooge.
Your native name is Onyesom Ezebunwo Wike.
Your father's name is Nlemanya Wike.
You are from Ikwerre and the name of your current Local Government Chairman is Samuel Nwanosike!
Self styled little moustached Hitler in Rivers State.
Thunder will fire you for this treachery.
Go and ask Ken Saro Wiwa what later became of him.

The Ikwerres have said it time and time again that they are not Igbos , why force them to identify themselves as Igbos when they clearly reject it.

The non hausa people even in the north feel insulted when called hausa even if they speak the hausa language.

Don't let tribalism be the death of you. Open your eyes.

I live in Rivers State in an Ikwerre community in Port Harcourt and they have never regarded themselves as Igbos or consider the Igbos their kinsmen.

Remember, they fought against Biafra. Don't forget this.

Ojukwu made the same mistake of forcing Biafra on the Niger Delta and it turned out that Niger Delta fought ferociously for one Nigeria. Clearly history has been removed from Nigerian schools but Google it.

Don't also forget that the Ijaws liberated Port Harcourt from Biafran forces yet we do not claim to own the entirety of the city. We know where are boundaries are at.

The Biafran horse is dead, long dead, stop flogging it. Bury it and move on with your life.

I wonder why the mighty Igbos are politically isolated, clearly the Igbos dwell on what God has not permitted and has refused to permit.

Ikwerres should go and do DNA test, so that this controversy will stop .

Dede1:


Anyway, talk is very cheap. Who gives a ratass to the ranting of ants? Wike has established himself as a moving target. There is nothing he can say now that will change the picture he already painted.

We are very glad this happened btw u an them all the evil intentions of ipob are exposed.

I don't know the Igbos you are talking about but the indigenes of the one very close to Delta state which is Anambra never lays claim to any part of their land and never simps for them. Infact we treat their Bleep up and remind them how they are not full Igbos if need be which is the reason why they respect us and are even the ones coming close to anambra state. Infact if something were to happen in onitsha, the first police or fire brigade response is always from Delta state. Even in their radio stations and TV stations, they are the ones that scream Igbo up and down because they know that we won't go low to claim any human being. But that doesn't stop the fact that if they Bleep up we won't show them their place. Do you know how many times the bridge has been locked up?
Even with all their oil which you know is more than what Rivers state have, we never stoop for them or consider them our equals.
You see, in this life the respect you have is synonymous with way you view yourself. Ipob and Abia state have bleeped up which is the reason why ordinary Ikwerre is treating them that way.
I wish Anambra is the one close to Rivers state

Shut up there

You guys all are all.ibo , your language is the same ,culture the same too

Whendirty Yoruba say we Whole Edo re Yoruba (an insult) there by robbing me of a thousand years of heritage why do you all keep quiet?

Thunder fire you there

You are just one nuisance suffering from attention seeking disorder. Yorubas don't care about your village called Edo.

Ikwerres are not Igbos. They are a distinct ethnic group. Even the Constitution of Nigeria recognizes them as such.

vanunu:

It is better they remain that way. Even if they do DNA test and it is positive. They will never be accepted as true Igbos in Northern Igboland. Especially Anambra

Cyberterror:
Ikwerres are not Igbos. They are a distinct ethnic group. Even the Constitution of Nigeria recognizes them as such.

The same Nigerian constitution that recognizes Ijebu, Awori and Egba as separate and distinct ethnic groups.
That one is not a reference

Dreadful:


Fool, shut your trap and stop saying trash!
The same Ogbakor you are talking about is the home to Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi!
Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi has repeatedly told you even on a National TV that he is Igbo.
You are even the dumbest!
These people you are saying trash over their identity do their names sound Bini, Yoruba or Hausa to you?
The idiot father's name is Nlemanya Wike
The bastard is from ikwerre and the name of his current Local Government Chairman is Samuel Nwanosike!
We dissect you vandals and criminals from the Sahel that likes planting seeds of division in our midst with history, facts and figures.
Try again next time.

You see your life Pazienza. Because of your comments people think you're a Northern Almajiri. You see how far gone you are now, for brothers to call you a Northerner and Yoruba are hailing you. You lack tact.


cc Igboid.

Go and ask awuse how far Mr governor....
You have passed your message and it is well understood, forget all this damage control.....i don't under stand the presence of his excellency Dr Peter odili... Is he one of the south east leaders? .
Someone asked if those that burnt prison in edo are also ipob

Simplyleo:

Are you aware Rivers state is oil rich?
There lies the forced marriage/attachment.

. You are so uninformed, why are the igbos not claiming to be part of bayelsa and Akwaibom? Don't they have oil too, the guy said igboid stuck, just like itshekri and some tribes in Delta are regarded as Yoruba or Bini stuck, that means they have cultural affinity or could have come from the same lineage. Just a little research will help you, stop embarrassing your generation on a public forum.
