I just noticed that you like Wikipedia, it's commendable, but I will teach you how to do research. Please search OLD CALABAR on Google read the literatures and also see the maps. I put it to you that old calabar cannot be complete without mentioning Igbo land.
Please help yourself with the link below and stop confusing your young age with half knowledge, cos it's dangerous.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Calabar
You can check through my post, I never used wikipedia source, except this one time. And the reason why was because I just want to push the point across and there are limited source out there addressing the subject on the internet. One good source I have is the title "Scramble for Africa" by Thomas Pakenham in hard copy.

From the source you provided, the only connection between Old Calabar and Igboland was a that lot of slaves were taken from Igbo hinterland and transported through Old Calabar has seen in this excerpt

"The coast in this region was named "Calabar" by the Portuguese explorer Diogo Cao.[5] The reason for choosing this name is unknown, since it was not used by the Efik people.[6] The city of Akwa Akpa was founded by Efik families who had left Creek Town, further up the Calabar river, settling on the east bank in a position where they were able to dominate the slave trade with European vessels that anchored in the river, and soon becoming the most powerful in the region.[7] Akwa Akpa, also known as Duke Town to the British, became a center of the slave trade, where slaves were exchanged for European goods.[8]

The main ethnic group taken out of Calabar as slaves were the Igbo, although they were not the main ethnicity in the area.[9] Most slave ships that transported slaves from Calabar were English, around 85% of these ships being from Bristol and Liverpool merchants"

Your idioti.c self keep repeating the same point that I quoted Wikipedia as a source. Instead of refuting my point, your came up with the most ridiculous lies ever that Oil rivers became owerri province grin. You are such a simpleton

Now for sources other than wikipedia

Quick History
"The delta of the Niger River (in present day Nigeria) was initially called "Oil Rivers", not because the area was a producer of "black gold", but, because at the time, the delta was a large producer of palm oil. (Ironically, the area did become a large oil producing region in the 1950s.) The delta came under British rule in 1885, the "Oil Rivers Protectorate". This was done to control trade on the Niger River, and to prevent encroachment by other Europeans during the "Scramble for Africa"

if the group has been distinct from igbo since colonial era, why do you call the 1st coup an igbo coup?
It's Igbo coup because Igbos were the profiteers of the coup. The 2 other major tribe suffer great loss in politicians and military personnels. But the likes of Aguiyi Ironsi, Nnamdi Azikiwe and Michael Okpara were left untouched.

Also, apart from Kaduna Nzeogwu and Wale Ademoyega that are Delta-Igbo and Yoruba, other eight conspirators were core Igbos

Who are the Igboids in Rivers, the Ikwerre you so much attached to, has Wike and Amaechi not denied you guys that they are not Igbos. And the renaming was done because they realized Ojukwu agenda was to secede and claim the crude oil in the bight has Igbos........After defecting his coward as.s they needed to change the name to make Igbos realize that the bight belongs to the people of niger coast and Nigeria as a whole.

Per the bolded, the region know as Oil River Protectorate was not limited to the goofy south-south lexicon in today's Nigerian polity. Most Nigerians are calibrated dunce. In fact, the Oil in the Oil River Protectorate had nothing to do with the crude oil but palm oil. In addition, there were two rivers that gave rise to the Oil River Protectorate, thus, Imo and Qua Iboe Rivers.
I know you want to attach Igbos by fire by crook. But did you see the link I provided earlier of postal stamps of oil rivers protectorate? did you see any Igbo town mentioned there? Before you make any further comment, open the link and learn

Lekwa onye ofe mmanu a
Yeah I am a proud Ofe mmanu. I love the red palm oil because of its health benefits. Just to enlighten your ignorant dic.khead........red palm oil has been found to have more nutritional than any oil.

Quote from renowned Doctor Oz "The health benefits of olive oil have been touted for many hundreds of years. More recently, coconut oil has become all the rage and hailed by many as the king of oils. But, whatever oil you choose – whether it’s olive, coconut, almond, canola, peanut, safflower, walnut, or even avocado oil – none compare to the powerful nutritional virtues of virgin organic red palm fruit oil"
