Egein: It doesn't mean he's cultist. There are lots of things you can be proud about in Bayelsa. Must you always condemn instead of trying to change it . Fine we all know Bayelsa is a Rugged state but that can change and you being ashamed of the state won't change it na!!!! |

Greyworld: Okay oo If u say so. Then I think that's a mistake on my part . I think Ruggedity comes with different factors in which Street Smartness is one. But someone might be Street smart without being Rugged. I think Deviancy Eccentricity and Street smartness equals Ruggedity. 15 Likes 1 Share |

Travel / 5 Most Rugged States In Nigeria. by Sinistami(m): 7:14am On Dec 11, 2018 |
Hello! Good morning Dear Nairaland. Today we'll be going through 5 of the most Rugged States in Nigeria. First and foremost let me clear this up for you, Ruggedity doesn't translate to Violence. The People of this Seven states might be Rugged but not necessarily violent And life in Nigeria actually needs Ruggedity, but for this 5 States its a way of life . And in Numerical order from 5 to 1 we give you the most Rugged States in Nigeria. 5 Lagos State: owing to its diversity and being Nigeria's Economic and Commercial capital, Lagos makes this list by Default. I liken Lagos to Newyork City. A large population Of Crazy people why wouldn't anyone be rugged . Especially in places like Ajegunle, Mushim,Bariga,Ojuelegba,etc 4. Bayelsa: The Dream Jerusalem of the Ijaw Nation, Bayelsa is miles away more Rugged than Lagos which is only rugged in some Neighborhoods, In Bayelsa even the Villages are Rugged From villages like Peremabiri to Amassoma to Yenagoa places like Down Yenagoa , Obele, Amarata, Ekeki, owns Ruggedity in Bayelsa but no other states to fill the Gap so it stays in No.5. Bayelsa is one of the States in the South along with Rivers which has turned Cult OT Slangs like "Wida" into a normal Pidgin Word. That tells you something right? And Most Bayelsans were actually citizens of Places like Boro-kiri Portharcourt, Ajegunle etc when this people came back to Bayelsa coupled with the Effects of Niger delta Bayelsa crises. Ruggedity flows in their Veins. 3 Delta: 10 Gboka for Una. Warri Warri Warri. Una no de karri last kpata-kpata na draw! Normally Delta should have been number two or even one. But this is New Warri not Old Warri. Don't be deceived Delta is peacefull now. The Warri Crises is far over but still Ruggedity still flows in their veins and they're don't hide it and that's one reason I love this peeps. 2. Rivers: Home to Port Harcourt which I liken to L.A or Compton. Who no go no know. This state is called Lagos of the South and it can prove it actually is. Rivers is the Father of Bayelsa its to Bayelsa what Edo is to Delta. Its has been a hot Bed of Cultism, Militancy in the past so you know it flows in the Blood. The State still has lots of Serene places but.......... 1. Edo : If I forget Baffi wetin I gain? The Ancestral Home of most Nigerdelta Groups. Edo with a population of 8 million people is the Host of the City Benin. Edo is like Delta in everyway but in Ruggedity? The other Four states are learning. In Benin if you're not Rugged then you're OYO on your own. Although One can argue it was the Deltans that made Benin Rugged because they were all one once. but Still Twale for Baba!!!! 34 Likes 7 Shares |

magicjack: There are Isoko and Urhobo indigenous to Bayelsa in Sagbama L.G.A there's is also a place called Isoko Bayelsa where a lot of Isoko and Urhobo people both from Delta and Bayelsa stay. As for the Igbo I don't know much about that though I hear there is an Igbo Subgroup indigenous to Ogbia local Government Area called Ekpeye. But I haven't really seen them. |

thanks for clearing that up. I've always wondered why Oru meant JuJu when it was our Ancient name. By the way the Epie-Attisa call it Owu. |

Culture / Re: Edo Is Nigeria Fourth Largest Ethnic Group by Sinistami(m): 10:10pm On Dec 05, 2018 |
Iwillbegreat: Stop mistaking Izon for Ijaw. The tiny group you're calling are Izon they're what they call the purest of Ijaw because they are not mixed with any other Ethnicity. the rest Epie-Attisa, Ogbia Engenne, Okrika are Ijaw that are mixed with other Ethnic groups like Cross River Languages Edo and Igbo people, but still retain the name Ijaw. But most Bayelsans just call them (Izon) Ijo a corruption of the word Izon. The Ijaw people are so spread far that they always in contact with another Ethnic group. For the Kalabari, Okrika, Ibani, Nkoro and Ndoni its the Igbo and Efik-Ibibio for the Tarakiri, Apoi, Gbaramatou, and Aragbo etc its the Urhono Edo and Yoruba etc. |

[quote author=Amadioha01 post=73453726]KUDOS!! Very insightful. I wonder why Edo nationalist extremists (not the moderates) don't go into Yenegoa, Ahoda west(Akinima) and Degema to lay claim of omo blah blah blah Edo. But rather they can't stop laying claim to Anioma and Onitsha. [/quot Maybe because Onitsha and Anioma is closer to Edo than the others. |

Una! Mek una no kon do mek una pant dem tangle each other o! Even if we speak Edoid languages we have mixed over the years with the Ijaws. And so we are now Ijaw but don't tell us that we are Izon that's all. and who's that guy saying 60℅ of us are Edoid even if that's correct were still Ijaw and still the majority. I hate fighting among my fellow Nigerdeltans I really hate getting into Tribal issues like this shhaa just have to point that out. 2 Likes |

OkaNaUbe: Its Pronounced Iyineguo. But only by old People and I'm not Sure of what you're saying but The Epie-Atissa of Yenagoa and The Zarama Clan of North Yenagoa near Mbiama is very related with the Ngenne and the Degema people of Rivers State. They're have a history of Coming from Benin. Although other Clans in Bayelsa too Claim that but these two are the ones that speak Edoid languages. 5 Likes 3 Shares |
