Chairman of Niger Delta Nationalities Forum and member of Ijaw Elders’ Forum, Mr. Seigha Manija, in this piece, proffers solution to the activities of the new militant group in the Niger Delta, the Niger Delta Avengers, NDA. A new group in the Niger Delta has been blowing up oil pipelines and facilities for some weeks now. What do you think is responsible for this latest spate of bombings? Firstly, I can only speculate what could be responsible for the present spate of bombings in the Niger Delta. In any case I want you to know that this spate of bombing stopped since 2009 when the late President Umaru Yar’ Adua declared the Presidential Amnesty Programme (PAP) for the Niger Delta. I remember that the Niger Delta was boiling when Obasanjo took over in May 29, 1999. But just after his assumption of office, his first official trip outside Abuja was to the Niger Delta. By the first week of June 1999, he was already in Port Harcourt through Warri where he dialogued with the youths of Niger Delta. Within weeks of his assumption of office, the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) bill was sent to the National Assembly. Even the government of Gen. Ibrahim Babangida did not waste much time in converting the 1.5 percent derivation fund to three percent in his time. Yar’ Adua in his early hours even created the Niger Delta Ministry. All these happened in those regimes because they reasoned on time that the Niger Delta and its oil are strategic to the nation’s economy. This government is about a year old, and if there is anything I can recall in respect to the Niger Delta, it is the reduction of budgetary allocation to PAP from N60billion to N20billion in this 2016 budget. The near omission of the Lagos-Calabar rail project and the announcement by the minister of transport that the Maritime University in the riverine Niger Delta has been cancelled are not too good signals, you may say. It is in the light of the above I think the new group called Avengers is simply behaving or reacting like the two-year-old baby, whose parents have just given birth to a new baby called North East Development Commission. Avengers’ questions Everybody including the World Bank, European Union, UNDP and AU among others is pledging one thing or the other towards nursing of the new baby, giving the impression that the older baby has been weaned. The older child - Niger Delta, is asking if it is still relevant to the household and in the process breaking glasses, cups and pots. A good parent must respond positively and adjust quickly too. The Niger Delta Avengers may be asking a rhetorical question on whether and because the government is diversifying into agriculture and solid minerals or because the price of oil has plummeted, the Niger Delta, its oil and the people, especially the youth are no longer relevant? The government sees NDA as criminals just as many commentators do. But, NDA also sees this government as wicked and undermining the Niger Delta region. I think the President has some quick fix jobs to do in this direction. What should the President do? One, President Buhari should convene a Niger Delta youth summit to use the platform to assuage their fears. He should take same opportunity to pay former President Goodluck Jonathan a courtesy visit just to say thank you for respecting the wishes of the majority of voters at the 2015 presidential election. These two steps will go a long way in the first place. Again, President Buhari must and should decide whether to collapse all the interventionist agencies in the Niger Delta region into one institution and fund it appropriately or fund all of them properly and insist that they all function rightly. For example, the NDDC and the Niger Delta Ministry have no business building hostels for existing universities in Port Harcourt, Benin, Calabar, or Asaba; neither should the East West road be the sole responsibility of the ministry. In any case, some of these projects are already variously captured in their respective local, state and federal governments’ budgets. Rather, the East West road should go to the federal ministry of works. NDDC and Niger Delta ministry have no business providing dust bins and electric poles in urban centres such as PH, Calabari, Benin etc. These agencies must be made to purely concentrate on the development of rural and riverine oil producing communities. This way, the youths in these areas can now benefit directly. The rural and the riverine communities are not benefitting enough from these agencies like the city centres. The President should take a guided helicopter trip through the riverine communities and see for himself. On proliferation of interventionist agencies On the other hand, these agencies are poorly funded. Yet, people from other regions are baffled with the proliferation of interventionist agencies in the Niger Delta. For example, I hear that in 2016 budget, the allocations to NDDC is N41billion, Niger Delta ministry has N19billion while the Amnesty programme got N20billion, totaling N80billion only. If this is true, it is very poor and it is undermining the importance of Niger Delta region. For example, a loss of 800,000 barrels of crude per day (bpd) as claimed by the Petroleum Minister, Dr Ibe Kachikwu, amounts to 800,000 bpd multiplied by $50 per day. This gives us $40 million per day. Against N300 per dollar, it amounts to N12billion per day. When you take in this for a month, you will have N360billion. It is now left for one to imagine the paltry sum given to these agencies for the development of all the nine oil producing states in a year. To appreciate what I am saying, the Lagos state government has just announced a budgetary allocation of N844 billion for the building of the fourth Mainland Bridge, spanning 35 kilometres between Victoria Island and Epe, yet the Federal Government is giving less than N100 billion to the interventionist agencies to cater for nine oil producing states of the Niger Delta. It is worrisome to imagine that a paltry sum of N20billion only was allocated to PAP in 2016 budget where over 15,000 youths already captured in the programme are yet to be trained; unfortunately some Nigerians are calling for an immediate end to the programme. Do you think Niger Delta is presently said to be heavily militarized as being claimed? It is bad for one reason and good for another. It is bad in the sense that the more the military come, the more the resolve of the youth or some criminals, who feel challenged to do their worst as a test of their capacity and knowledge of the environment. It is also good in the sense that it affords Nigerians from other region the opportunity to begin to appreciate the plight and challenges of the Niger Delta region. A case in point was when I gave a ride to a serving JTF officer from Kebbi State, from Warri to Lagos some years ago. As we discussed along through our journey, he swore that what is happening in the Niger Delta can never be tolerated by either the Hausa or the Yoruba for one day. According to him, before he was posted to the Niger Delta, he was always angry with the Niger Delta youth because of the ‘criminal activities.’ He confessed that his first and second trips to the creeks in Rivers and Bayelsa states afforded him the opportunity to feel and see the pathetic situation in the region. He concluded that the youth were not even showing enough anger. I was happy with him for being forthright. However, when he was alighting at Ojota in Lagos, he said to me, “Oga, as soldiers we have to do our job.” The essence of my story is to show that many, who may have been compelled to occupy the Niger Delta in the line of duty, will become willing ambassadors of the region someday just as the young military officer did in my story. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/06/jonathan-crucial-resolving-renewed-n-delta-militancy/ 1 Like 1 Share |

| Politics / Ijaw History (from Ijawnation Yahoogroups Archive - By Mr. Benaebi B. IPA, UK.) by Tinubutoto: 7:54pm On Jun 04, 2016 |
The Ijaws are a nation of more than fourteen million people in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria , the most populous indigenous inhabitants of the Niger Delta and constitute the fourth largest ethnicity within the borders of Nigeria. The term Ijaw is the anglicised version of Ijo or Ejo, a variation of Ujo or Ojo, the ancestor who gave the Ijo people our name. Other modern variations include Izon (Ijon), Ezon (Ejon) and Uzon (Ujon) meaning the same thing. Other names referring to Ijaw people are Uzo (at Benin), the original ancestral name Oru (in Ijaw and Ibo land) and Kumoni (in Ijaw). These names were applicable through the Niger Delta and environs as noted by early British visitors; "... The early British explorers applied the curious name "ORU" to the Ijo west of Brass from the Nun entrance to Taylor creek, Dr Baikie said of them in 1854. 'From the mouth of the river (NUN) up to this point (TAYLOR CREEK), the country on either side is named ORU. The people are of the same tribe as who inhabit the tract of country up to the Rio Formoso where however they are called EJO or OJO by which name they are known at Abo, at Brass and even Bonny, by English palm oil traders. They are often termed Jo-men. Throughout this district but one language is spoken with but little dialectical difference....Dr Bakie does not explain where he got the name Oru as the appropriate term for Ijaw. the word means "a God" in Nembe and it is clear the explorer did not get it from a Nembe source….In 1906 Major Arthur Glyn Leonard listed a number of tribes of the Delta, distinguishing an Oru as well as an Ijo tribe..."The Oru occupy the tract of country on each side of the Nun branch of the Niger and along the coastline between it and the Ramos river. Then in the triangle formed by the Nun and the Gana-Gana, also outside it, to a small extent, both eastward and westward, dwell the Ijo the most important tribe in the lower Delta, and indeed after the Ibo in the whole of Southern Nigeria ..."[1] “..About three hours from Sunday Island, we came to inhabited villages; we induced two canoes to come off, from who we learnt that the people between Brass and Aboh are called Oru…”[2] “….July 2:…Some of the neighbouring chiefs of Oru came off, with whom we had conversation about legal trade…”[3] “…November 3: weighed early this morning, and anchored of Agberi, the first Oru village below the Aboh district…”[4] “…The Oru or Ijo or Udso of Koelle are identical with Brass, at the mouth of the Nun on the coast, otherwise called Hebu or Nempe by their Ibo neighbours. This language is spoken to the extent of 100 miles from the mouth of the Nun, to the boundary of Abo territory: how far inland towards Benin, on the right and towards the Ibo country on the left is yet unknown…”[5] The original collective names for the ancestors of the Ijos were “Kumoni” and “Oru”, survivals of the ancient terms of “Khem- Anu” or “Khem-Onu”, and “Horu” of the ancient Nile valley civilisations of Khem or Kemetu (ancient Egypt) and Kush (ancient Sudan). The Kumoni-oru derived from ancient Egypt via Ife, while the Oru derived from ancient Sudan. Now the earliest ancestors of the Ijos, the “Orus” or “Tobu-Otu”, migrated from the lake Chad aquatic civilisation of Daima region (c 5000-2000 BCE). Their settlement in the delta was from the earliest of times. Unfortunately not much is known about this period, only that traditionally it is said that these early ancestors “dropped from the sky” (i.e. to say the Orus were of divine origin), and were devotees of spiritual culture that made much use of the waters (hence the mermaid and water people legends “Beni-Otu”) They were later to be joined by other ancestors “Kumoni-Orus” from about 400 CE, and 650 CE (AD), who, after settling first in the Nupe and Borgu regions, then the Ile-Ife region, moved to the Benin region via Nupe, and Ife. In the Benin region they eventually settled and launched expeditions into the Niger Delta, where they came across remote settlements of the Orus, whom they termed “ancient people”. But because they were also ultimately Oru, from the beginning they established communities as one people. The Ijos were known by the two names of Kumoni or Oru up till the time of the 19th century. European visitors noted the name Oru as a distinct term for Ijaw. Likewise the compilers of the Izon/English dictionary noted that “to speak Kumoni is to speak pure Izon language”. The term Ijo (Ijaw) or Izon evolved as the name of the whole ethnic nationality through time, even though as a personal name it derived from one ancestor who was known as Ujo, whom as we have previously mentioned, represents the time when the Ijos evolved as a distinct separate people from their neighbours. The Formation of the Ijo ethnic nation was a gradual process. We have the period prior to 400 CE i.e. 500 BCE to 700 CE (AD), of which the proto-Ijos or “ancient people” ancestors (Tobu Otu) or Oru settled in the central delta and fused with later immigrants. Then we have the time of; 700-1200 CE (AD), where we have the ancient Kumoni-oru ancestors who came with the ancestor Ujo ultimately from Upper Egypt, migrating through Ile-Ife and other places such as Gbara in Nupe, establishing further settlements at Agadagba-bou in Igbedi creek, and the Nun river in present day Kolokuma Ijo. It was from here that the bulk of the ancient ancestors fused and founded several towns and clans and the beginnings of the Ijaw evolving as a distinct ethnic nationality. After establishing at Igbedi creek, Ujo sent for more of his people who were at Wari-Ife/Warige and Ujama or Uzama (i.e. Ado or Beni). This was at the very beginning of the foundation of Beni, and it is this account that some traditions mention Benin as a place of origin (also a district around Nupe was also called Beni, founded by the Beni clan of Kumoni, with capital at Gbara); “…The first place of Ujo’s encampment in his journey from Ile-Ife was the site where Benin City now stands. Then like the Yorubas all the tribes founded by members of Ujo’s retinue and by Ujo himself claimed that place (Benin City) as the place of their original settlement whence they emigrated….”[6] “…The Origin of the Ijos. There are lots of different opinions about the origin of the Ijos. Some anthropologist say that the Ijos came from South Africa, some say from East Africa. Some say they are from a district around Nupe province in Northern Nigeria and some say that the Ijos came from Benin.... In general the Ijos themselves believe that they came from Benin and in fact most of their traditional stories and folklore refer to Benin. yet we are left to wonder the great difference in language among the Ijos and Benin. If we should assume the belief that the Ijos came from Benin according to the natives it might be that the Ijos left Benin far earlier than any other tribe migrating from Benin...."[7] The original ancestral settlements founded by the proto-Ijos in the central delta were, Agadagba-bou (first home of Ujo in the central delta), in Igbedi Creek, Isoma-bou along the Nun river, Opuan-bou in the same area, and Orubiribua-bou, also in the same area, and Abo, with its villages, further up the Niger. When they came and settled in the central delta, the ancestors personified by Ujo, after establishing their authority over preexisting settlements (central delta), instructed an expedition force to go and guard the mouth of the delta and other important places along the coast as stipulated by his father King Adumu. These people became the ancestors of several Izon clans. Keni Opu Ala or Keni-Ala, the holy seer (Asain) of Adumu, the Supreme Intelligence symbolized by the sacred serpent python, was the ancestor who founded Ke or Keni and its daughter towns. Kula and Bille were also founded in this way. Ogulagha and Iduwini, were founded as a result of proto ancestors settling in the western coastal delta, to guard that region. Oguru (alias Kala-Ogbo who gave his name to Warri region (Ogbo Ijo) settled the area now known as Warri region, these ancestors were to be joined by people from Oporoma. Others such as Kuru, founded the Kru people (they seem to have been proto-Ijos), who eventual migrated to the present day Liberia region, while some ended up settling in present day Ghana region. After many years of settlement Ujo left his headquarters in Igbedi creek in charge of the Agadagba of Egbesu (military officer), and decided to go back to Otu-Ife. He traveled with nine companions including his grandson Apoi (Opoi) the son of Kala-Okun. Without a skilled astronomer they got lost and decided to settle in a creek near the vicinity of the Nun river. It was here they founded the village of Apoi. Ujo made his permanent home with his grandson Apoi at the quarter now known as Okoto-aja. It was here that he died and was buried. Ujo who was titled Kalasuo, gave the title to his grandson Apoi, since then the rulers of Apoi clan have been titled “Kalasuo”. From the central Apoi, a section migrated to the western delta, to found Apoi Ijo of the Ondo region. Also from the central Apoi, was founded Akassa clan along the coast. The ancient town of Ujo-Gbaran or Gbaran for short was founded by Gbaran an elder son of Ujo. Gbaran was given the scepter of Ujo on the death of his father. Later on his descendants went and founded the town of Oporo-aja (Oproza) in the western delta region of Escravos, to give birth to the Gbaranmatu and also Arogbo in Ondo area. Children of Ujo, Olodi and Oporo, went and established a common settlement, from which descendants founded Oporoma and Olodiama clans. From Olodiama in central delta, ancestors left to found Olodiama in the western delta near Benin, and also ancestors left to found Olodiamabiri and Onyomabiri and other towns, to form Nembe clan. From Agadagba-bou was also founded Ogbia (Ogbo-Oyan) clan who are the descendants of Oyan. From the same Agadagba-bou, led by Opu-Ogbo, was founded, Isoma-bou or Opuan-bou, from which ancestors later migrated to found, Ekpetiama, and Seimbiri clans. The last to leave the ancient town of Agadagba-bou, were the ancestors of the Opukuma, Kolokuma, Tarakiri and Andoni. Opu- Okun was the ancestor of the Opukuma, while Kala-Okun was the ancestor of the Kolokuma, both were children of Ujo by the same mother. Tara a younger child of Ujo was the ancestor of the Tarakiri, while Ayama the son of Tara was the ancestor of the Andoni in eastern Ijo,. The Andoni (ruler known as the Andoni-Oru) town of Asarama was founded by Asara or Assa an ancient ancestor descendant of Ayama.. At that remote period most of the ancestors lived in Igbedi creek at Agadagba-bou and the immediate environs of the Nun river. Afterwards their descendants migrated all over the delta. Lastly Abowi, the Asain (seer) of Ujo who led the migration from Otu-Ife or Ile-Ife, journeyed up the river Niger to establish a number of villages which gave rise to Abo and Atani (ruler known as the Atani-Oru). Abo or Aboh and Atani no longer speak Izon language. Lastly we have the 1200-1600 CE (AD) period; From these early formations and migrations sprang other clans, while at the same time ancestors joined the Ijo of the delta at the beginning of the 12th century up to the 16th century CE or AD when the old Napata kingdom collapsed at Gbara, the Adumu or Oduduwa dynasty was overthrown at Ile-Ife, the last Ogiso Kaladiran, were overthrown at Benin City, and civil strife at Benin caused people to leave. From the central delta Apoi, was founded the Apoi of the western delta area of Ondo. From Oproza town in Gbaranmatu clan was founded at the end of the 15th century, Kabo, Kumbo and Gbaran clans, which was the result of a large family migration from Oproza town about 1480. From Kumbo was founded Okparabe. From Gbaran town in central Izon, was founded Effurun and Uvwie. Efferun a descendant of Gbaran, elder son of Ujo, was the ancestor of the Effurun in upper Warri area, while Owei was the ancestor of the Uvwei. Likewise from Gbaran was founded via Efferun, the Tuomo clan. From Oporoma was founded the Operemo clan, and some went to join the Ogbos, descendants of Kala-Ogbo to become the Ogbe-Ijo clan. From the Isedani lineage of Kolokuma, led by Opumakuba and Alagbariye (alias Kala-Beni), a migration to the eastern delta coast founded the Ibeni or Ibani clan now known as Bonny early in the 12/13th century. From the Isoma-bou area along the Nun, was founded Obiama, from which came Boma and Ogboin. Izon who lived at Benin city later joined these ancestors. From Benin City, migrated Beni-Izon people who were fleeing the local wars. They founded Obotebe, and Beni (Oyakiri) clans. The ancestor Mein, who was Beni-Izon, i.e. an Izon citizen of Benin, and his family migrated from Benin City because the reigning Oba had started to confiscated the private lands and property for his own use. Mein settled in Igbedi creek and founded the town of Ogobiri. From Ogobiri, was founded the Mein of the western delta. Perebokekalakebari shortened to Kalabari the grandson of Mein was the ancestor who founded Kalabari clan. Basan, Furupagha and Tungbo was also founded about this time, through ancestors coming from Nupe, Oporoma, Kolokuma and Ke. Other clans include the Buseni and Okodia, who hailed from Kolokuma and Benin-Izon (Ado), Egbema from Iduwini and Operemo. Okirika or Kirikeni hailed from Isoma-bou, Andoni, and Ogboin,. Others include the Ndoki, who came from Isedani of Kolokuma, but now speak Ibo, Nkoro or small Okirika, Zarama and Egbema of Imo region, Opobo (1800), who hailed from the house of Opubo of Ibani (Bonny) and Oruma, whose other name is Tugbene hailing from Oboloma. Altogether they constitute the Ijo people who stretch from the eastern shores to the western shores of the Nigerian coast. http://www.ijawfoundation.org/people.htm |

| Politics / Don’t Abduct, Attack Soldiers, Avengers Warn Other N-delta Militants by Tinubutoto: 4:56pm On Jun 04, 2016 |
WARRI- NIGER Delta Avengers, NDA, Saturday, said its war was not against soldiers and oil workers, but on oil installations and warned other emerging groups to desist, henceforth, from kidnapping and attacking soldiers. The militant group also disowned the new groups, claiming to have anti- aircraft missiles, warning them to desist from targeting or any aircraft or it would go after them. In a statement by its spokesperson, Brigadier General Mudoch Agbinibo, said: “The high command is calling on all groups in Rivers, Ondo, Delta, Bayelsa, Cross River, and Akwa Ibom to not indulge in any act of kidnapping and attacking of soldiers. The war is on oil installations; “Operation on Flow of Oil.” It read: “The liberation of the Niger Delta people has taken a new swing with the daily emergence of new groups all over the region. The Avengers are calling on all groups in the region to be strong and resolute as it is obvious that God is on our side.” “The groups are much now both real and unreal but if you really fighting for the liberation of the Niger delta people, the high command of the Avengers is calling on you not to attack any soldier and those claiming to have anti aircraft missiles should deist from targeting any aircraft. Let us be careful not offend God in the process of trying to liberate our people from the shackles of the Nigerian government because we need God more than anything right now. We also need the international community as well. Hence, we must desist from any life threatening actions that will derail our genuine struggle for our people,” the Avengers said. “All groups are hereby discouraged from indulging in harassing oil workers and soldiers. We urge you all to help any oil workers or soldiers you see in distress. “The military warplanes hovering round our towns and villages have not strike a soul or destroy any property, so those groups with anti aircraft missiles should dry their gunpowder,” it said. The group added, “When it is time to engage the military in combat, the whole world will know that they started the war, not the Avengers. The Niger Delta Avengers’ high command will pass the message round that it is time to engage on gun battle when the time comes.” “So far, we have not engaged the Nigeria military in combat; despite the heavy presence of military on the pipelines. we still find way to carry out our actions without attacking soldiers. The avengers will deal with any group that refuses and attack military,” it added. Meanwhile, the National Coalition of the Niger Delta Ex-Agitators, NCNDE, called on the Federal Government to flush out the Niger Delta Avengers, NDA, which they described as criminal elements allegedly sponsored by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP to stoke troubles from the region. President of NCNDE, Israel Akpodoro who stated this while chatting with newsmen, alleged they that the PDP was in want of goading the Federal Government into military confrontation that may provoke public outcry especially "the foreign communities with the ultimate aim of discrediting the All Progressives Congress, APC led administration at home and abroad". According to Akpodoro, the second aim of the Avengers was to cripple the Nigerian economy to give reasons for the PDP to gloat and mock the administration, adding that "such act is unpatriotic". Urging the Federal Government to go all out for those he described as criminal elements masquerading as freedom fighters and their sponsors, he said "no amount of subterfuge can make anyone believe that the bad losers in the PDP are not behind the economic saboteurs. "The avengers are biting more than they can chew; Nigerians know that the Avengers are drawn from the ex-militants who were on the payroll of the Amnesty office of the Federal Government but are now serving few failed self acclaimed leaders from the region". Holding that the Nigerian Army has all it takes to bring the last member of the avengers to justice, Akpodoro said that "no person or group of persons can threaten to kill President Buhari. The avengers in their empty and barefooted threats to kill the President if he visited Ogoni land was an expression of madness taken into lunatic fringe. He berated the leaders of the region for keeping silent rather than cautioning the "sponsors of the criminal group. Our leaders should be bold in their stance against the perpetrators of hostilities occasioned by vandalism of oil and gas facilities in the region". Speaking further, he frowned at media reports credited Governor Fayose of Ekiti State on the issue, noting that his actions were unbecoming of a supposed state executive. He called on the youth in the region to embrace peace in order to open a new vista of accelerated development and growth in the region, saying, "no ethnic group has the right hold the nation to ransom". "When Jonathan was the President, he didn't contemplate the clean up of Ogoni land neither did he see the East-West road as a need for the people of the region. While he held sway, we the people of the region allowed ethnic sentiments to blur our senses of reasoning. They looted our commonwealth blind only for the beneficiaries of the six years misrule to turn around to sponsor hostilities against the Federal Government. Buhari should consider making another Odi in any of the hotbeds of criminal activities in the region," Akpodoro added. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/06/dont-abduct-attack-soldiers-avengers-warn-other-n-delta-militants/ |

Evestar200:Kiagbodo Uhrobo?ohhhhhh, I see I have been wasting my time all along. So if I marry u and u come born children and they speak yo language makes them Urhobo? lol, weyrey!!! Ofoni, Uduophori and Odorubu are from which clan? if u answer this question I will agree with u. let me give u a tip of the iceberg, they are part of Tarakiri clan. Tarakiri married an Isoko woman who gave birth to the founder of Ofoni and Odorubu as well as Uduophori. Every other Isoko or Urhobo villages in those areas always join Ughelli local government, like Gbarigolo and Olodiama but these other tribes I mentioned refused because they are part of Tarakiri clan. the Prime minister of Tarakiri clan is an Odorubu man. My guy zoom off before I kpafuka u. |

Evestar200:mumu, tell me d Urhobo village in Burutu, is it Ekiagbudu u r talking about? lol, that is never Urhobo village. That is E.K Clark's village. No single Urhobo man in patani, Uduophori and Odorubu are all under Tarakiri Clan, which is an Ijaw clan together with Ofoni which is even Isoko and not Urhobo. I repeat no single Urhobo soul in Bomadi, Burutu, Warri South West and Warri North lgas. Mods please ban this girl, semis becoming a nuisance. Sapele is own by Urhobo but 50% inhabitants are Urhobo, 18% Itsekiri, 20% Ijaw and 12% other tribes. Ughelli is own by Urhobo but a sizeable % Ijaw inhabitants who are not from there. The largest local government in Delta State is own by Ijaw,, which is Burutu.

Evestar200:some of u talk any how, which Urhobo and Ijaw is sharing 4 ? Which Urhobo village is in Burutu which is the largest local government in Delta state? which Urhobo or Itsekiri is sharing Bomadi local government? which Itsekiri is sharing Patani local government, are u claiming Ohoro and Evreni as part of Patani? And in another post u said Urhobo is 5m, are u high? what is the total population of Delta State. My friend, Urhobo has just 8lgas in Delta; Sapele, Okpe, Ethiope East and West, Udu, Uvwie, Ughelli North and south. So tell me the 5m u r talking about. Sapele, Ughelli and Uvwie is occupied by both Itsekiri and ijaw so what are u saying. U guys have just 1 senator and 3reps and Ijaw have 2 and a senator in delta state. Ijaws have total of 5 senators in South South out of the 18, they have 15reps and 2 deputy governors from Delta and rivers so tell me any tribe that match that feet. Mods pls ban ds kind of brains from polluting this forum. |

Is it that some persons are so daft that they always leave the topic to discuss unimportant issues? The man said the land was not his own when he filled the form and he gave out the land when it was given to him, yet some are questioning why he didn't include it. So because he disgraced himself we shouldn't reason again? |
