The usual chest beating and gragra.

Have you heard about Ojukwu instigating a war that got many Igbos killed when he built a bunker at Enugu to hide and at the end ran to Ghana to hide, have you also heard of another Igbo man called Kanu that started a revolt with so much noise, bragging and chest beating but disappeared for months and later resurfaced in Israel when he saw Python Dance, did you notice how much noise the said Kanu made towards the election when he thought Atiku will when and he bragged of coming back to Nigeria but has gone silent since his boss warn the election and jettisoned the idea of returning to Nigeria?

That woman was a Casualty of War, Oyo Empire Invaded Dahomey Kingdom 4 times and a single Search for Dahomey Kingdom will let you know that. Egba Dealt with Dahomey Amazons and a Search for Dahomey Amazons will let you know that, we are not talking about single Casualty.

industries were flourishing both in lagos and ibadan....( The center commerce of NIGERIA back then ).

Hardly did any Ghanaian move to the the eastern part of Nigeria unless it is base on goverment Assigment . eastern part of Nigeria was largely underdeveloped even before the civil war and was very much backward after the civil war due to effect of the war. The few GHANAIANS that pooulated the area were expatriate and less than 0.5 percent unskilled workers. .


Do you even know why Ghanaian were deported

OlawaleSmarter1:
Start Reading History, and stop creating Stories in your heads,. A single search for Egba And The Dahomey Amazons will enlighten you, Oyo Empire Invaded and Destroyed Dahomey Kingdom 4 times in history. Start Reading History and Stop Creating Stories

most of the GHANAIAN in the eastern part of Nigeria are expatriate , so their residence are legally permitted. for example, Ghanaian former vice president ( kwesi ammisah Arthur) was once a lecturer at Anambra colledge of education.

The larger chunks of economic immigrant Ghanaians are located in Lagos and most part of the south west because that is where industry exist back then.

NIGERIA interior minister single handedly handle the deportation exercise and even reject the plea of Ghanaian high commissioner to Nigeria when he request that they should extend the deadline given by Nigeria Goverment .

Yes it's a trophy for winning the war.

The problem about you is, you don't learn. kwame inkrumah wasn't the one who deported Nigeria. it was busia who did. Nigeria had twice deported GHANAIANS 1, During Sheu shagari and the second one was during buhari millitary regime. they were ask to provide 50 pounds as a means of supporting themselves, majority of them were deported back then because 50 pounds was a whole lot of money.

schoolboij:
Foolish ape! Show me where the article states that benue was part of former eastern Nigeria.

LexngtonSteele:
We will keep banging them while you rant online.

HajiMT:
You may not be aware that Emeka Anyaoku is married to a yoruba woman. Alex Ekwueme also had a Yoruba wife. We are all Nigerians and we can marry each other. After all, many of us are even married to white women

opeoluwa20:
like tonto dike abi

LexngtonSteele:
I agree.... Igbo amaka mehnnnm!

schoolboij:
No where in the article says benue state was part of SE. You are just a dimwit.

Lol... Tuface isn't Yoruba o. Infant idoma and Yoruba are as far as the sun from the earth... Idoma is the largest in the idomoid languages

Niger delta is linguistically complex but no where as complex as the north.. Geographical Niger delta(second largest in the world) is made up of 3 states delta,bayelsa and Rivers.... Culturally it includes all south south states edo, always ibom, cross Rivers plus the 3 previously mentioned....
There are many ethnic groups in Niger delta... The edoid(urhobo of delta being the largest, Bini,esan,isoko,afemai,some ijaw tribes).... Every town,village and community in delta and edo state and some in rivers and bayelsa(yenagoa axis) claims to have migrated from benin city even some igbo tribes with no linguistic affinity .i used to doubt it since most of the languages are not intelligible except urhobo-isoko which form a dialect continuum. The part of my home town where I'm from is called aka(our native/very acient name for Benin city...it might have another meaning though). The best proof of such claims can be

Bini(hare) - isoko(yare) - urhobo (nyare) - isoko proper(nyanze) - English ( come)... That is as far as it goes but not for urhobo/isoko which are both sides of a coin http://www.waado.org/Organizations/UHS/Debates/UrhoboBeninRelations/Omoigui.html
There are ijaw ethnic group who speak 9 not so related languages from Rivers (differet ethnic groups here like igboid(ikwere,etche,oyigbo,egbemme),ogoni) almost all bayelsa, some part of delta and ondo

Since there are many ethnic groups pidgin becomes convenient.. Pidgin is spreading from warri,yenagoa,port Harcourt and Benin city increasingly displacing native languages along its part.... My community in delta state for instance code switching is common between my native tongue and pidgin mostly among male youths but not female or children or elderly.
Cross Rivers and akwa ibom are different ball game

People in the Niger delta c pidgin as a brand and a fashionable stuff. Warri pidgin accent is the hardest with lots of slangs (#50 naira in Lagos is white/waso but Skye in warri and environs). I had to tell them explain some stuff when I visited. You can go around most places in Nigeria with pidgin English and every where in Niger delta with it(it might become the native language of those of us in the Niger delta in no distant Time)

TayserMahri:
No way! Nigerians used to dress like the wizard below. The agbada (or whatever else) is a stolen concept from the muslim world from where most get their spiritual compass. Nigerians and stealing/scamming are 5 & 6.

T9ksy:
Dendemoron, your obsufication tactics is well worn out so i suggest you come up with something new like actually countering the myriad facts in the Op's post.

But of course, you can't hence your recourse to the "garden path" trajectory.

T9ksy:
Thanks Op..........bookmarked.

Not at all surprised at their juvenille responses as they obviously have no evidence/s to debunk the facts contained in your post.

Sagay212:
Igbos will and can never measure up with Yorubas. You igbos are ants where yorubas are. The only thing y'all know is empty chest beating, hatred and envy. Yoruba are miles ahead of you and will continue to school you till the end of the world.

ericsmith:
funny guy .. just as nobody hawk sex better than SE/SS women ... prostitution naa there own form of nysc

cute9ja:
Seen, but there was no Benue in the mid-60's
It was part of the Eastern Region i guess

ericsmith:

serikigoro:
Nobody will intimidate Igbos! You guys will cast your shinkini votes and as the saying goes minority will have their say buy majority will have their way! so you are welcome top cast your vote for Just Kidding JK! But Sanwo Olu will win! When he has won, then JK will be made the governor general of Ikemba land!

ericsmith:
ALOL ... ojukwu said more than these but he ended his live is sorrow n pain,, nnamdi kanu chest his chest pass dre ,today his father does not even a compound anymore not to talk of throne, even the SS militant wey be SE senior brother tried shit with smaller ogun met instant death...muscles without brain is a liabilities.

Balkan:
The truth is that the last election was full of rigging for Buhari in Lagos State . Igbos in Lagos are more than 5 million. If 2 millions come to vote for PDP that means APC is gone.

Igbos will win up to 7 seats in Lagos Assembly come Saturday.

Our vote will be the decider. I am happy that most lgbo guy are relocating to Lagos everyday to stay and establish. While Yorubas are moving out towards Ogun state due to high cost of rent.

PDP will win on Sat.

iammo:
I Hope you understand that a president zik in a Parliamentarian government headed by balewa. is just ceremonial?

AGAIN Hope you know without General obasanjo both shagari and VP ekwueme can't smell the presidency.

Lastly MKO won on a Muslim / Muslim ticket beating Tofa / igbo ticket.

Look no igbo smelled Nigerian corridor of power since 50years ago (Pres) 35year(v.p) Senate over 15 years, and that's cause of your toxic politics of hate and pride God hates the proud and always humbles and humiliate the proud

AllenSpencer:
Chest beating runs in the blood.

Cherrybae:
SE should be made Minority leader so that they will learn from Historyand stop reaping harvest of mistakes.

The SE are yet to learn how to play politics yet they cry marginalization everyday where they vote only one party and want to reap where they didn't show.

Nonsense

Smartwave:
real Igbo boy when there are growing up before Lagos trip

APCsupporter:
[s]he is not. He has never left the south east but you will see him arguing with a south southerner on whats happening in Bayelsa, arguing with a North westerner about Zamfara, arguing with a South Westerner about Osun and arguing with someone from Kwara about NC politics. Thats what he is
