yorubarere:
Igbo parading himself as akwa ibom. They are not always proud of their tribe

Averagely most Yoruba can't tell the difference.

Anyone beyond Ore is Omoibo, including akwa Ibom. So don't try to sound smart

aribisala0:
Eboes did not vote a Yoruba ,at any time

Spare that story for the gods.

You contested against Obasanjo and were defeated.

So why don't you contest against Tinubu or whoever and defeat them.

If you are successful in clinching the tickets of PDP AND APC then see if Nigerians will vote for you

Do not make false comparisons

You MUST COMPETE AT THE PARTY LEVEL and clinch tickets there . Do not expect any party to gift you their candidacy because you are Eboe

The only person who contested against OBJ was a Yoruba, Olu Falae.
Please don't twist the history

Aufbauh:
The simple reason is that we've seen through their actions and words that they're are Democratic in nature.
They have shown over the time that they lack most of the Democratic tendencies to govern a multiethnic and multi religious country like Nigeria.

Again we don't really know what they want going by their disposition. Today it's Biafra or death, then tomorrow it's Nigeria president.

Also they are the least patriotic tribe in Nigeria to be entrusted the highest office of the nation.

You lie man.

I'm not Igbo but those people took nigeria as theirs.

Their investments across Nigeria have defeated your false claim... I know how much investment and jobs they created in my town, I wish I could say that for other ethnic groups in Nigeria.
.. Even though they are not perfec because no one is.

headSmasher:
They want presidency through emotional blackmail

President was submitted to Yoruba in 1999 for same purpose....... Emotional blackmail.

In lead up 2015 elections, the North argued that the presidency be returned to the region to complete Late Musa Yaradua's tenure.

Is that not emotional blackmail but when it's ibos, Nigerians lose their senses.

Very disgusting

SlyDev:
Igbos by default are not political leader and material. People easily overwhelmed with emotions are not to be trusted with power.

Story story.

Yet they're heading leadership position in global institutions like World Bank and WTO

Even most developed countries they winning Elections.

I'm not Igbo but let's not decieve ourselves.

Shebi na Fulani and Hausa that have leadership and istrative material.

Abeg make ị hear word

christistruth01:






It is this type of arrogance that lead to Biafras devastating defeat and the abandoned property saga

This is beer parlor talk dude.

Nigeria triumphed over Biafra due to the enormous political, military and diplomatic from major super powers namely UK and USSR, and other powerful blocs like Arab league and OAU.

Let's not deviate from the issue.

christistruth01:




Port Harcourt is part of the Ijaws homeland


It is this type of arrogance that lead to Biafras devastating defeat and the abandoned property saga


Till today the Ijaws of Port Harcourt still celebrate Adaka Boro[/b]

You're saying something different.

I'm only establishing a historical fact here.
Which is that Portharcourt was not included in Adaka Boro 1966 movement.
Please get Adaka Boro's book to enlighten yourself on the topic

christistruth01:




https://www.vanguardngr.com/2020/05/fifty-two-resounding-salutes-to-major-isaac-jasper-adaka-lion-boro/amp/

You're a funny person.

What you showed me is of "major" Adaka Boro who fought on the federal side during Biafra war.

Please why didn't Boro include Portharcourt in Niger Delta Republic which took place in 1966, a year before Biafra.

Portharcourt was not part Boro's Niger Delta Republic.

Tranquill:


Is the claim of stealing, brazen thievery and reckless acts of land grabbing that were being perpetuated by the Igbos which he ed with evidence true or false?

How come there was no documentation about the land grabbing, brazen thievery by Igbos?

I hope you are aware that the Riverine people were firstly educated before ibos?
So if there was such issues, the riverine groups like Kalabari, okrika who had fine lawyers who would have taken legal actions.

Again do you know many non igbos had lands in enugu?

My grandfather a civil servant has property in Uwani and coal camp.

These were popular areas back in the the 60s

Tranquill:


Ikwerres participated actively in the agitation for the creation of the COR state same way they represented at the Wilkins Commission as a minority ethnic group. These are verifiable facts and not some online fabrications and twisting of history.

Stop sounding ahistorical,
Willink commission captured Portharcourt division and Ahaoda division as "Ibo" areas.

Secondly ikwere and other igboid groups in current day Rivers state chickened out during on the last days of the struggle.

My grandfather from Ugep, was a civil servant in Eastern region.


This was the major reason the COR movement failed,
The ibos whom were supposed to be part of it chickened out.They were also in ogoja province not just Portharcourt and Ahaoda

christistruth01:



Adaka Boro was Ijaw and Ijaw were Part owners of Port Harcourt

Do you know that Ojukwus Biafran Army massacred many port Harcourt Ijaws later on

Why didn't Adaka Boro include Portharcourt in his Niger Delta struggle?
Why did he stop at Bonny river?
Dude didn't even include Opobo.
I think you should pick up a copy of his book

Kebbiprince:

We the 'abokkkis' own the north if u don't know

No Aboki.
I think bandits, ISawp and Boko Haram owns the north

ThumbzTNA:



Landmass occupied by Igbo whether in SE or SS is already igboland. For example, I as an Igbo man feel more comfortable building a house in Asaba (whether it's in SE or SS) than building one in Otukpo or Calabar



In my humble opinion, what Igbo in SS need is to have a state to themselves, but said state will still remain in the SS. They shouldn't share a state with other tribes. It's true that igbo people from SS are always torn between agenda of the ND and that of Igbo. That's what brings about identity crises. Having a state that is made up of Delta North, Rivers East and Rivers West (Igbo and igboid group in the South South) is the best for everyone. The minority tribes are happy because they finally have their state to themselves. The Igbo are happy because they are finally in a state with one identity and destiny. Everyone wins

SS as a zone was meant for "minority"
There's no way you're having major ethnic group occupy a whole state.

Any Ibo looking for a state in SS should be willing to SE

oyatz:



Ever ethnic group strive to promote it's interest.

The Ijaws, Efiks,Oron, Ogoni, Ekpeye and Ikwerre agitating for their own Region (COR) which led to the creation of Rivers and Cross River States in 1967 (which forced Ojukwu to hurriedly declare Biafra 5 days later) were acts of self determination and not necessarily anti-Igbo stands.


There wouldn't have been civil war, ifGowon had created the 12 States in Jan,1967.

The bolded group and their fellow igboid groups in Ahaoda and Portharcourt division declined Rivers state in 1958 because of Ijaw renegotiating the by trying to add up western ijaws.
Ikwerre and ekpeye weren't championing any state creation

Christistruth00:





Before that ever happened Azikiwe as Premier of the East Commandered much of Port Harcourt Lands for Government Projects and shared much of it among his Kinsmen and Friends by the time Ojukwu took over 93 % of Port Harcourt Lands had been forcefully acquired by non Indigenes through Azikiwe’s scheming

On Freehold O !
Not on leasehold that would have returned the land to the indigenes after 99 years

The Indigenes Of Port Harcourt were practically Squatters on their own Ancestral Lands

There worse part was that selling land was against their Culture so the Eastern Region had acquired the Lands by Strong Arm Tactics

Adaka Boro and his boys were like , you have pushed us to the wall and we are not having this

That was what led to the Adaka Boro Niger Delta Revolution Of 1966

.

Adaka boro and his people had no business to with portharcourt because, it's obvious that you know nothing about the Eastern region....its geography and history

Let's not forget that it was Southwest and Yoruba folks that made it very possible and much easier

[quote author=MoIbrahim post=109121106]You want to start [b]another fight [/b]with Benue, Kogi, Delta and Rivers? Only you? Where will you get allies from? Or you alone wants to fight everybody and win everybody?

Politics is not like this o.

Which ethnic groups will do the fighting?
What we should asking is.... Are there ibo lands and groups in those aforementioned states

NewsForYou:

The total landmass of East will fit into Kano still remain. So what are you saying? Are they supposed to have bigger or larger slum… funny things is when your own come you will try to hide it but we will troll tire that day.

Bro it's not about landmass anymore.

I would prefer an anambra that is densely populated and well built up than any larger northern state.
Large empty spaces are not that viable,
Businesses are complaining of low patronage,, no real estate boom and lands are not appreciating.

I'm not ibo but I think southeast has no problem with land, they're likely to be first area of west Africa that will embark on large highrise residential homes, from the already existing 4-6 storeys to 13-20, all they power supply and planning

ifiokjohn:
lol... Oil that Akwa ibom state govt has access to?.. abi, is the costal areas not still part of Akwa ibom? They don give m to Bayelsa?... [b]See those idiots you said you see only come to live there and the costal areas is very much part of Akwa ibom..[/b]lol

That's what I feel too but I think
People from akwa Ibom needs to be vocal on this issue.

ifiokjohn:
Near Akwa ibom state first after Nigeria divide.. we will make sure the little land you have you will lose it.

A couple of Ijaw groups are closing in coastal areas of akwa Ibom which will ll strip the state of her oil and gas assets.. And access to the sea.

Thoh:
is it the ibos that I just saw their fight , where abba kyari turned to super man?

Or are they not the ibos that nigeria weak used to shine recently?

Are they not the ibos that military effortlessly used just two weeks to slaughtered their 2000 well trained esn ugm?

Iboes I know cannot even withstand Ijaw women in gun battle....

This is not 1967 where Ibibios, Efiks, Annangs etc will used their powers to help ibos...

iboes I know can never withstand any tribe without Ibibios Efiks Annangs at their back

Stop painting the pictures of War in SS especially nọt with ibos.
Nobody wants that.
Ijaws are likely to have a war on tribes than ibos.
I that some Ijaw groups are dragging land in akwa Ibom.
You guys are aiming to strip akwa Ibom their oil status and access to the sea,
Which can never happen

Ijaws picking fight with ibos at advent of Nigeria break up will be there(Ijaw) biggest undoing.

Ijaws still have land tussle in Almost all states in SS.

Guy please forget that talk.

Plan for partnership and cooperation.
War is not good, because I see ibos mobilizing and seizing an Ijaw coastal town

Thoh:
We don't need prophet Isaiah or Ezekiel to tell us this again, As we all seen today Nigeria will no longer last 4 years.
Nigeria will divide into more than 15 parts.
Among these 15 countries, which one will take over the title giant of africa?
well, Yoruba republic and Ijaw Republic will battle for such spot.

4 reasons Ijaw nation will edged out Yoruba nation to claimed that title....

1..crude oil. This is no doubt will gear Ijaw nation to be the wealthiest black nation...

2..self-made.. Ijaws are good at producing things like boat, flying boat, etc, and self-made weapons like gun-boat, bomb, gun, spear.. this will boost Ijaw economy...

3...sea access... This tripled Ijaw economy success..

4..Biafra landlocked.. the division of nigeria will no doubt make Igbos landlocked.
Biafra landlocked will gives Ijaw nation advantage..
Igbos will need sea access more than any other persons..
They need sea to either laid their crude oil pipes to preferable nation for sell or sea to load their crude oil with vessels to another country, this will make biafra government to strike deal with the Ijaw government for either periodic payment or annual payment for the usage of her Sea spaces......
This will indeed generate lots of incomes for the Ijaw nation...

God really loved the Ijaw people. He blessed them with everything.

People are having troubles with Ijaws from left to right because of the gifts God blessed them with..

It's sad that Ijaws are still about crude oil in few weeks to 2022.

Yesterday landlocked Rwanda launched mtn electric cars yet you think its by crude oil?

Honestly i feel sad for people like you in SS.

If you're not talking about Agriculture, manufacturing and IT..... Just forget

If you're an Ijaw person and you wrote this, I honestly feel sorry for you.

One big mistake you make is to think that other ethnic groups in South South doesn't know the benefit of ports and partnership with ibos.

Let me tell you this for free, ibos are likely to partner with we akwa-cross on the areas of Port and international trade.
The recent partnership with Ambazonia is tandem with that partnership which will link up ibo land to international borders via Ambazonia to central and East Africa.

With the current state of affairs, I don't see ibos having much partnership with Ijaws..
The people of cross river and akwa Ibom stand better chances, check ibo investment in Ijaw land to get a better sense of what I'm talking.

Ibom Seaport is very welcomed among many igbos I have come across here.

Again, ibo land is not landlocked even if they seceded without any coastal areas.
They can simply dredge their rivers to contain ocean vassel.

Trying to stop ibos from using their rivers to access the ocean will result to full blown war.


I will advise anybody from SS, it will be a big mistake to have a war with igbo if Nigeria break because such will give them to seize lands and territories.... And there would be no Nigerian government to calm the situation.


In the break up Nigeria, every minority should work towards peace and cooperation with their igbo neighbors.


If you are really Ijaw, wake up from your slumber, think about where you can get money to clean up your environment which was degraded by oil exploration for decades
