I don catch you, you are NOT from south south, you Ewedu Eating coward from South West.. Hahahahahaha.. IGBOS will be 100% ahead of that diabolic tribe you are from.

The mad fellow is probably from Edo.
Even in that same edo, there is still an Igbo community there (Igbanke)

atbu1983:
Go and read the history of Ikwerre people in PortHarcourt. They are from Benin and not ibo. the fact that they had a lot of interactions with Igbo which later influence their language does not make them Igbo. it s exactly like Yoruba claiming Itsekiri in delta state because their language is Yoruba!

South east should form their own country alone. is it by force to take south south states along? south south states will form their own nation like United Arab Emirates. we don't need south east in our confederation

Which histroy? The one you and your divide and rule master wrote?

They told me Ikwerre and etche are from Auchi.
You guys will just wake up and start writing histroy to suite your devide and rule.
Why aren't they speaking bini or answering edoid names?
Why don't they have kings like bini does.

wake up man, we don't wan't you edo in Biafra.
So stop attaching yourself to biafra. Go and meet your peers west ward

atbu1983:
I am south south. I don't completely agree agree with you for singling out the North alone. As far as I am concern IGBO, YORUBA and HAUSA are all benefitting from the current system. Afterall an IGBO man Gen Agunyi Ironsi created the Unitary System for Nigeria in 1966 that we are complaining against today. When Isaac Adaka Boro wanted to form Ijaw Nation Republic in 1966 it was Igbo Head of State Gen Agunyi Ironsi that fought him with a 12days war. Tell me what is Igbo contribution to Nigeria foreign exchange? Atleast the North contribute Agriculture no matter how small. They contribute more than the Igbo.

Igbo may have succeeded in brainwashing some south south people that they are one of us, it is big lie. They may have succeeded in brainwashing some of us that only hausa and Yoruba is the problem of south south, it is a big lie. They are the same as far as I am concern.

Below is the size of south south states and south east states. South South is almost 3times the size of south East.
Yet the population of South east is almost 80% of south south population base on 2006 census. More than 90% of the resources (oil, gas, limestones,etc) are in the south south. The whole of South East is landlock with no direct access to the sea or atlantic ocean. but almost all the south south states have direct assess to the sea and atlantic ocean.

Tell me why South South Nations will want to form a country with south east if they have a choice ? all south east will bring to the table is population and domination?

If you are the leader of south south nations will you advice them to form a country with south east if they have the option of forming their own country alone? give a sincere answer?

As far as I am concern, as unbranwashed south south , there is no difference between the Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa. To me, these are three major tribe struggling and fighting for Supiriority. Whenever any of the three is loosing, he shout Marginalization.

During Jonathan govt, the Igbo was gaining and were in control and was happy. The Yoruba were losing and were shouting Marginalization. The hausa/fulani were not happy because they were not fully in control. For the North we can slightly understand because in the 16years of democracy (May 1999 to May 2015) the south ruled 13.3years while the North had just 2.7years

The Igbo don't love south south more than the hausa or Yoruba love us. All the three tribe are all struggling for the control of south south oil. None of the three is better than the other as far as we south south are concern

In summary, my point is if Nigeria will divide peacefully by United Nations referendum, south south will not join Biafra. South South will form its own nation/nations. The only way south south and south east will form a single nation is if Nigeria divide by War because population will be important in size of Army.

My Igbo neighbour may not like this submission, but it is the bitter truth

Why don't you shut up instead of mumbling like an incoherent almajiri.

What is south south?
Last time i checked, igbos still live in the so called SS and are not landlocked (Igwocha/PH) .

Flowrymz:
Nnamdi kalu who been leading the Biafra movement in igboland was spotted making out with a woman not his wife on the streets of london (Where he is based).

Biafra supporters have so far shown there disappointment in him.

Na ur mama u want make he flirt with before?

Wonders shall never end in this zoo

every baboons and monkies now have something to say

anulaxad:
You were once claiming that you were Yoruba and belong to the Arewa of Lagos sub-group, yet all you do is throw abuses against your own people.

You may be half-Yoruba, but that does not change the matter of fact of who you are.

why don't you stfu and say something reasonable about the injustice in this evli contraption called the zoological republic of LIEGERIA

Omololu007:
instead of you to be concern about ibos that are been beheaded in anambra by igalas,nah yoruba matter u dey carry for head

Just like the way you parasites always hop/create any thread that have the tag IGBO or BIAFRA

CreampieAngela:
Chukwu okike abiama scatter the teeth of any ibo man that does not want to go back to iboland

any ibo man wey no wan go back to Biafra no go die beta. Any ibo man who is presently in a bus heading out of iboland to other regions in Nigeria, will not get to his destination.

Stvpidity of the highest order

Beside, there is no OIL in any part of the northen teritory, the oil belongs to Umu-Aguleri.

SW feeling like crocoach rn celebration over someone else issue, why can't you people fight over your land in illorin?

CreampieAngela:
Aguleri, Anambra state is currently under siege right now. The Igala Militias aint a smiling. Where is namdi kanu and his IPOB terrorists

Did Nnmadi kanu tells you that he gives a Bleep about oil politics?
His aim is to librate his people from the zoological republic of Nigeria aka the amusement centre of the british

scholes0:
Ok then, Afemais of Etsako....
Happy now?

Oya, Answer the questions o..... You can't have talked this much, and not answer the original questions of the thread.

lol
Am an Igboman (my dad if from Ebonyi nd mom from Edo), so i can't speak for the lesser groups (minorities).
Was just here to read people opinion when i spoted the Etasko line

scholes0:
Bro, we are saying the same thing.
The definition of ethnic group is fluid, but depending on how tight you want the defining circle to be, the ethnic group can get larger or smaller. The Illajes believe in Ayilala, The Ekitis have never even heard of what that is..... but they are all Yoruba, by virtue or language.
All people in Edo state speak Edoid languages, and share a large set of common values and beliefs.... I believe Benin also ties all of them together in history...... hence they can be grouped together.
that was why I said definitions can vary, depending on the factors being considered.

You claimed ETSAKO is a tribe which is not true.
Etsako is just Local Government Area and not a tribe.
The group of people that habitate that local goverment area are Afemai.

It's just like saying Igbo starts and End in SE

scholes0:
loool that is two languages already.
Mind you, no one in Uzebba or Sobe, or Ibillo even speaks those languages.

those are the two languages that is spoken in afemia land that is not influenced with other ethnic group's language

scholes0:
depends on how you want to look at it.
I can also consider what you just said, and group everybody in the state into 1 single ethnic group, the EDO ethnic group. Speaking EDOID languages.

Before you group them as one, you should ask yourself if they had same Ancestor.

Ppl in Bini believe in Ogun (God of Iron) and ppl in Auchi believes in Olle (God of water)

scholes0:
Etsako is an Ethnic group gazetted in the list of Nigerian ethnic groups.
Afemai is NOT.

if Afemai is an Ethnic group, Oya tell me the language that the Afemai ethnic group speaks.... Tha is understood from Igarra to Agenebode and Afuze.

they speak yekhee and agbelo.
Btw what is spoken in afuze is barely understandable by the people in okpella.

The village afuze means, Village of Axe, but it means something else in akoko edo and okpella

YonkijiSappo:
You are welcome. At least you heeded correction.
Anyways, I would have loved to answer the questions of this thread.... But I don't belong to an ethnic minority....so....
I will just keep observing all the ruckus. ...

I ain't from there either but i share their blood tho.

scholes0:
Tell that to the ETSAKO progressive union.
The ETSAKO PEOPLE are a part of the group of people, collectively known as the AFEMAIS..... the Afenmai as a whole also includes other ethnic groups that are mostly found in the Edo North Senatorial Zone.
I know you are surprised that you are being schooled about issues concerning your own state, but I take no glory for the knowledge I have impacted on you this breezy afternoon.

1st of all, stop twisting what they documented to you sactisfaction.
Afemai is a tribe, they even got divided and some of them are in akoko edo and not in the Etasako LGA (which is the largest concentration of the afemai people), you also ignored the fact that The Afemai nationality is
comprised of the Akoko Edo’s, the Owan’s and the Etsako people. These people occupies the northern part of Edo State, hence they are commonly called “Edo North”.

Next time dig deep before you post trash

phyllosilicate:
how come you know all those?

he knows prolly nothing about what he is writing about.
Btw which part of Edo are from?

scholes0:
Exactly what I was trying to tell him
the Edos and Binis are used interchangeably
It is also the name of the State. but there are other subgroups there within, such as the [s]Etsakos/Yekhees, Esans, Unemes, Owans Etc[/s].. All fall under the 'Edoid" family of languages...

you know nothing about anything in Edo tbh.

www.etsakoprogressive.org/web/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=63&Itemid=64

The Name of the tribe is Afemai and not Etsako

YonkijiSappo:
No, most of the landmass in the north is not desert. It is savannah. Have you even been there?

Yeah Thanks for the correction

scholes0:
"The Afemai are also known as the Afenmai, Etsako, Estakor, Iyekhee,[1] or Yekhee people....
Quoted from the Afemai Wiki page.
On the other hand, there are no peoples regarded as Yekhee or Etsako in the other non-Etsako LGAs of Edo North, that Afemai people are said to occupy. Such as owan East and Owan West.....
Anyways try and answer the questions if you can, and stop loosing your temper over nothing.

to prove both you and wiki wrong, do you know that Iyekhee is in Auchi? A sub group in auchi.
According to legends, the Iyekhee people migrated from Ibie.

Once again Etsako is not a Tribe.
It's a geographica epression, just like Enugu and Anambra.

YonkijiSappo:
Fulani are not minorities.
but depending on how you want to look at it, the nomadic portion of our population are treated like minorities in Nigeria, because they are not concentrated in one area.

Shebi u know say most of those landmass in north are Deserts Inhabitable ?

scholes0:
"The Etsakọ people are one of the major ethnic groups in Edo State, Nigeria. They presently occupy three local government areas of Edo State; these are Etsako East, Etsako West and Etsako Central, with Agenebode, Auchi, and Fugar, as their administrative headquarters"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etsakor_people

On the contrary, the Afenmai are not a specific people, the Afenmai include the Owans, Oras, The Etsakos themselves and the Akoko Edo tribes (which has numerous sub-groups).
Stop sounding like you are trying to school me, when I know my ish....

Dear, you are wrong again.
Etsako is the LGA not a TRIBE.
Thesame wikipedia you posted still proves you wrong here. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afemai_people

W/o wikipedia nonsense, my mother is from Ibie and i was born in Auchi and grew up in Sabo (an outskirt that bridges Auchi and Ibie).

scholes0:
They are number 4. more than 10 Million
They are actually very numerous in this country, just that a lot of Southerners erroneously call them 'Hausa" , but they are not.

If you place them in No 4 then Ijaw/Izon will be placed where?

scholes0:
Was i even addressing you?
If you think Fulanis are minorities in Nigeria, then you will have do explain yourself. ...... Why are you sounding so insultive and hyper ?....

am correcting your blunders, so that next time you won't repeat it

scholes0:
Stop Foaming in the moth.
The Edos in this context, refers to the Binis and not the state as a whole, while the Etsakos are the Auchi, Agenebode, people.
You are calling my region brown roof, What does the capital of Edo state look like, if not poo....

Etasako is the LGA not a tribe.
The name of the tribe is "Afemai" meaning my home. Bini is the tribe and not edo.

scholes0:
Fulani are not minorities, Abeg.

I told you before that you have no knowledge bout' the tribes in Nigeria.
Do research before you open an ethnic thread next time

scholes0:
You are Ibo Joor ......
I am talking about Ethnic minorities here, not Political minorities.

Am not Ibo, am IGBO.
Are igbos not in SS again, shebi una consider all ppl 4 SS as Minority? Why complaining

scholes0:
Please, If you are Yoruba, Igbo, Fulani or Hausa - this thread is not for you.... Thanks. Although you are welcome to make valuable contributions.

To the groups considered as minority ethnic nationalities in Nigeria I.e "The Edos, Ibibios, Tivs, Kambari, Itsekiris, Urhobos, Ebiras, Nupes, Kamukus, Igalas, Beroms, Iyallas, Angas, Idomas, Ijaws, Efiks, Jukuns, Annangs, Etsakos, Gwaris, Kanuris, Ogonis, Katabs, Jarawas, Chamba Etc" - I have a few questions for you.

* What is your state and Ethnic group / "Tribe"
* How do you feel about the progress of the Nigerian "project" and the place of your people in it?
* How do you feel / what are your opinions about the major ethnic groups of Nigeria? (aka The WaZoBia?)
* Do you feel your people are being marginalized or are not getting what they deserve from the Nigerian state?

since when edo become a tribe?

Yoruba man will never travel out of his brown roof. Thats what is causing this rubbish. In one sentence you identify "Etasako and Edo" as a tribe. Smh.
bro do your research before you open thread about ethnic groups you know nothing about

I rep 5%
