Ariani: Engenni owns 1/3 of Ahoada west and they are a distinct ethnic group. Their language is Edoid. They are only currently politically affliated to Izons for political gains of pipeline protection contract that Ijaws had cornered in Niger Delta. The remaining 2/3 of Ahoada West belongs to Ekpeye,a distinct and independent Igboid group.
Bros all these are fallacy the population of ijaws in Nigeria is no more than 3million. I have been to Bayelsa and worked in all books and cranies of Bayelsa. Bros all those swamps are empty. All the water ways are empty. Even the population put at 1.2 million in the last census is over exaggeration. Tell me where in Bayelsa of the eight local govt where U have large concentration of people . No where. In the last Gorvernorship election total Registered voters were put at 500,000. I am not saying this is a yardsty. Even at that, the registered voters are vague. These are political registration. The total vote cast was not upto 120,000. Now come to rivers state we have how many local govt that are ijaws. Okrika, kalabari constitute only 4 or 5 lga. Mind U Opobo nkoro,Borny, Andoni lumped up together are not ijaws. Now in Delta they have only two LGA now what is the population of 8 Lga in Bayelsa core ijaw gives U Less than 2 million according to census data that was over inflated. Total ijaw is no more than 2.2 million at best in Nigeria. Now come to rivers state who are the ijaws
Are you seriously serious that Opobo, Bonny n Andoni are not Ijaws. Bro, you might be stoned if we hear that kind thing from your mouth.
Captain8: thank you brother...i know more there are more thats why i initially stated 12....
am from delta state...
No shakes mbre. No shakes. Parts of Ph like Okujago, okuru, amadi ama abuloma, Borikiri are all Ijaw land I see how you have been schooling them. Weldone
The thing they fail to know is that the Ijaw man is not a noise maker in his place of dwelling even in foreign land. We just go about our biz, that's all.
Jerryherd: Tribe means a social division in a traditional society consisting of families or communities linked by social, economic, religious, or blood ties, with a common culture and dialect, typically having a recognized leader.
Ethnicity means the fact or state of belonging to a social group that has a common national or cultural tradition
Ijaw people (also known by the subgroups "Ijo" or "Izon" are people in Niger Delta in Nigeria, inhabiting regions of the states of Bayelsa (their original Homeland), Delta, Edo, Ondo, and Rivers state. Many are found as migrant fishermen in camps as far west as Sierra Leone and as far east as Gabon. Population figures for the Ijaws vary greatly,15 million .They have long lived in locations near many sea trade routes, and they were well connected to other areas by trade as early as the 15th century.
Ijaws are not Tribe or Ethnic group, they don't share language or culture, they are very different and distinct fishermen that migrated to Niger Delta
Ijaw is not a tribe or an ethnic group
Arewa is not a tribe or an ethnic group
Niger Delta is not a tribe or an Ethnic group
There is absolutely nothing called middle belt or North Central in Geography
Nothing like "Hausa/Fulanis" as a tribe or ethnicity
.
But your Ibo is a tribe and ethnic group abi. Continue

*sing till fade*[/quote]Olodo bmc, you are wanted in the Gumi thread asking your daddy to resign. Don't you have a word for Gumi your minister of bandits affairs??
They shud continue creating enemies everywhere they go thinking they doing others, e go clear them for eyes. nk is a pig same as his miscreants here and else where.
I knew that Ohaneze will apologize on their behalf cos the real Ibo man is a friend, neighbour, and brother to the entire South South region.
The problematic ones are the ones kanu has washed their brain with hypo and klin. They only think with their anus.
nairalandankrah: The vultures are congregating! Like pandef like Edwin Clark. Vultures of the same feather.
Instead of countering IpOb with facts, they result to making it an IGBO VS IJAW Affair..
Their soboteurish self must play out! That's how they betrayed Jonathan
That's why it is good to go to school wen your mates are going. Where in the entire writeup did you even see the word Ijaw. Where did you read and saw that it is a matter of Ibo n Ijaws.
PANDEF represent the entire ehnic groups in the south South, but as always, you ipobs miscreants will always make it about the Ijaws.
I am beginning to feel you miscreants are really scared of the Ijaw people cos I don't know your obsession with the Ijaws.
Every small thing, your idiiots are calling Ijaw people.
The south South is made up of several ethnic groups, why single out a particular tribe, and you want us to embrace your imaginary nation. You all have failed just like Ojukwu failed, Ralph failed same with Kanu and the future kanus.
What I expect you people to do was constant consultations but y'all are dumb and will continue blaming others for your own failures. Look inward, the problem is within you ibos and not any other people
cybersoldiers: These useless ijaws are really foolish.
Imagine those Fulani slaves talking to Igbo's, anyway they're only displaying their level of stupidity.
Between you the ibos and the Ijaws who are really slaves?? A slave is one who has been dealt with severally and severely. And as it stands, those dealt with severely and severally are you the ibos. Wen an Ijaw man speaks the Fulani man pees in his pants but who cares what the Ibo man says or do.
Nnamdi kanu is in prison what have you done, nothing. And there is nothing you and your fellow miscreants ipob will do, nothing.
mocey: finally my greatest ijaw rival on nairaland agrees with me,robbstark come and learn...i support a written pact on paper to give everyone assurances,we can put our past behind us like the igbos and yorubas are doing
Ode, stop mentioning my name to your madness. Olodo, you will comment and reply yourself with different monikers you think everyone here is a fool like you.
DanHaske: Maybe Jonathan was a good man, there are however certain things not good about him. 1. He wasn't intelligent. Buhari is intelligent oga When he speaks, it's uninspiring and does not portray someone who has been to the university. 2. He was ignorant about the country he was presiding over.Buhari knows it all oga That's why he was ruled with the "us" and "them" mentality. That was why he saw book haram which started even before he took over as president, as an attempt to distabilize his government. He felt northerners where sympathetic to boko haram, hence fighting BH will offend them, his advisers from the SE also did not help matters. Northerners on the other hand saw his refusal to fight BH as a plan by him to ensure their decimation, so he was hated. This was justified in the statements made after elections by people from the south when election results from Borno were announced, they asked "who have boko haram been killing" 3. Let everyone still. That's the politics in Bayelsa, that's what he brought to Abuja, everyone should steal as they want. And so did they steal. Including the Bauchi governor who was fct minister then, plus his son. And they looted the country into recession. This govt is doing a good job by not stealing a dime and there are surplus jobs everywhere oga
mocey: look at him acting like a saint but he is abusing igbos on nairaland daily,ijaw hypocrisy
Olodo, show me where I abuse ibos. I don't do that cos that is not in my nature.
I only attack wen my tribe is dragged or my name is mentioned in an attempt to gain online sympathy.
I will continue slamming your head on the wall until you bleed and stop that nonsense. Ijaws are peace loving people everyone knows that. We don't look for trouble unless we are pushed to the wall. There are lots of Ibos doing business in Ijaw land and no ish has been reported.
Be careful boy
Never you mention Ijaws again in your illusional Biafra.
mocey: Watch the video and listen to asari dokubo he says gunshot gets things done and that was why he parted ways with IYC and formed his own organization and I ask this same man that said gunshot gets things done faster is now against Nnamdi Kanu? Who chose the gun to defend his people against the killer herdsmen?
And now this same asari that says gunshot gets things done is now with the one that says non-violence Uwazurike, so I don't understand the way some people reason and they have no principle and ideology, why did Uwazurike support a violent man like asari and he is against Nnamdi Kanu defending his people?asari said we should get Biafra by voting out Fulanis..lol, this is why freedom fighters should not be politicians
Olodo, you again. This one you changed to another moniker and you didn't give me a mention, hope all is well in your camp. This nk arrest do you strong thing. I don't know who you are hiding from that is making you change monikers upandan.
We Ijaws have no ish with you ibos or ipobs. Your obsession for the Ijaw people will be your downfall. Asari is entitled to his opinion so is other Ijaw men and women. You can't use what one man said to drag a whole people just because of your useless agitation.
I know you are in severe pains since your lord kanu was dragged to Naija sorry. Change moniker any how, that won't change the fact that the biafran clamour is dead and buried.
