When poster wrote "Was from nd" in small letters, I ceased to read. I guess the "nd" remotely translates to Niger Delta. Celestine Ukwu was never from Niger Delta.

The fact remains there is no original tribe in Rivers State except Igbo. Any other assumed tribe is either the creation of the Portuguese or immigrant.
