Obiagu1:
The Agbo people in Cross River State are not well talked about or maybe I wasn't aware of it.

They live at the border with Ebonyi State. They are about 30,000 people and have towns like Igbo Ekureku, Adadama, Itigidi and Igbo Imabana.

Are these people Igbo or are they distinct?

NegroNtns:
Lmao!

Pleep,

How about "Egba" people, what are they?

I think the "E" and "A" were transposed after they emigrated to Yorubaland.

The EGBA people are actually EGBO or IGBO.


Rotflmao!


Foolish land grabbing campaign!

clevadani:
As someone who was born and brought up in the Niger Delta, I am inclined to ask Igbos on nairaland this question. This is because anytime the issues of Biafra are mentioned by Igbos on nairaland, they tend to include the south south. It is clear to a rational mind that Igbos will gain so much from the ss like land,oil,access to sea etc. But I have been trying to think about what the ss will benefit from the Igbos if seccession occurs.
When is say Niger Delta, I mean the south south.

Niger Delta, count out these group

Etche, Ogba, Ikwerre, Ndoni, Ekpeye and Ndoki , Anioma ,opobo etc

Your question is irrelevant

OduaVanguard:
Why do some of you guys relish lying? Where in the article did they remotely "admit that some part of delta is Igbo territory"? Even the portion you bolded/highlighted read "includes the whole of Delta State." How you were able to misinterpret/imply that to mean "some parts of delta are Igbo territory" defies logic. You people are hopeless.

You need to go back to school.Listen Zoological republic schools in Nigeria doesn't teach you just a common sense ,the statement above simplify that not whole of Delta is Biafra as well part of Delta is Biafra and no doubt Igbo territory. DO I MAKE MYSELF PERFECTLY CLEAR?

Afam4eva:
One of the reasons why I don’t support groups such as MASSOB or IPOB is not because I don’t think Igbos or any group for that matter have the right for self-determination. My only worry is the mode through which this is carried out. The truth is that the Biafran dream will remain a pipe dream if the initiators go about it the way they are currently. Apart from the fact that they are not going about it the right way by appealing to those that matter in Igboland and taking their case to the United Nations (UN), the most embarrassing disposition that they have created is one of forcing people who have not given their consent to be included in the Biafran agenda.

The fact that most of the areas known as the Niger Delta were naturally part of the old eastern region and as such were naturally part of the Biafran agitation in the 60s does not mean the same thing holds today. The divide and rule tactics has worked and anybody that can’t see it needs to go for an eye checkup. I’m tired of this whole “We are not Igbo, we are Edo”, “Our ancestors ate Igbo yam and that is why we are Igbo” or the opposing views that portray such desperate disposition that could be mistaken as Hitler’s intended conquering of Europe.

Igbos should fight for their rights and their only. Let’s stop this “SS and SE” BS. This people have oil for Bleep sake. Leave them the heck alone. They don’t want to have anything to do with you. I wonder why you can’t see that. They probably hate you more than the Hausas and the Yorubas that you see as your arch rivals. You have nothing to offer them, so leave them the heck alone.

In my mind, I even think it will make more sense for Igbos to align with other major groups and not minorities. These minorities don’t care about you. They see you as a land grabber. It doesn’t matter whether their names are the same as yours, their mode of thinking and vision is different, so it will serve you well if you focus on your SE affairs and stop romancing people that don’t want to be romanced.

If you are really passionate about getting Biafra whether or not it comes with oil or seaport then you must present your Biafran case as the SE alone. Don’t even include the Asaba area, atleast for now. Present your case as the war ravaged SE that no one can benefit from and the powers that be may change their kind and give it to you. But as long as you keep romancing oil, those Abuja people will not mind being Niger Delta’s father Christmas by sending gun wielding soldiers to teach you a bitter lesson for the second time. A word is enough for the wise.
