Igala people are you not brothers with the Igbos? Let us handle this situation peacefully as family.

The oil belong to igala and Igbo want to steal it.

redsquare: Anambra don discover oyel Ibaji people of Kogi come dey talk say dem dey related to Anambra Igbos. LWKMD, Nigerians will never cease to amaze me. If it was a crime an Igbo man committed, you guys will be the first to mock Igbos and disassociate any affiliation with the Igbos. Listen dudes, we aint one and we will NEVER be. We see you Kogites as Abokis/Almajiris. If you like, call yourselves Igala,Igbirra,Junkun or whatever, there is no difference between you and the fulani herdsmen.

Mr man you are a tribalist and an idiot for saying this go research on igala before you start writing out of your ignorance ..igalas are indinenous to anambra on the boder where this oil is found and you are hatin greedy idiot - do they tell you there are jukun in kogi, jukun are taraba state ok go research properly. So you will also call auchi speaking edos who are muslims call dem almajaris also

nagoma: So Anambra wants to steal Kogi oil? Theft is in their genes.

Northern Elites still do it best though

U pals are talking nonsense. There is nothing u will say here dat will make any change in d decision of our leaders. Dey found d oil. Dey studied d map dey no wat dey are doing. So u guys should stop vomiting rubbish cos here is no trash fools

CyberG: How come people are already passing judgement and have never seen the actual MAPS of the oil wells? Only one reason: tribalism and selfishness. Why don't you folks wait to see the actual maps? If the map indeed shows any oil in Kogi State, it becomes a joint ownership : 50/50. The refinery in Anambra can make more money because they are adding value to the raw material: crude. This is one more reason why this country CANNOT break without the US/UK/etc based Nigerians losing virtually all their family in a stupid war they fuelled with useless internet talk. The sooner Nigerians begin to see everything for the benefit of all, that is the day our problems begin to get a solution. If any part of Nigeria think they have the monopoly of violence, well remember that is a fallacy. No doubt, the next few days will bring more information for us to make better conclusions.

You wouldn't be the same man who said this:

CyberG:

But ibo man BETRAYED the people he had been going to long-throat in their house, kwo? No wonder ibos igbos are treacherous, dirty, saboteurish BETRAYERS who would kill anyone for money or position. He meant well for himself and tribalist ibos, kwo? Shege banza, dam buruba kowai!! Pounded yam long throat ibos of Nigeria!

Really to get a lecture from you on tribalism is very rich lmao

pannyman:

You are spot on. Many communities on the Anambra side are actually Igala-speaking, but only a handful of Anambra Ibos know that they have non-Ibos who are indigenous to their state.

Dont mind some of these ignorant Igbo people, My village Igbedor is an Igala-speaking community in present day Anambra state, and according to the legend we've inhabited the land since over 700years ago. Personally i do not give a bleep about wherever the oil source is from, let its proceed just be used to develop Nigeria.

So let me get this straight. Most of the oil discovered is in Anambra with a small portion in Enugu, Kogi, and Delta. Because of that small portion, kogi state wants to lay claim for oil found predominantly in Anambra. SMH. Greediness is such an ugly trait. Ask for compensation. This oil sef, what a curse.

Acidosis: You are very sick and I think you need urgent medical attention to think we are cowards.
We know the greediness that flows in the viens of many from your place. .
If you want almajiris, I'll advice you take your ar.se to the core north. . there you'll find them, not in kogi state.
Mind you, if you think I care about the oyel discovered either in my state or your state, I'll advice you dig a 25ft well and fall into it.
#just a piece for you to reconstruct your manners.

Lol. This is funny o, so Kogi people are claiming oil wells too? soon Sokoto and Maiduguri will be claiming the oil wells in Delta, Edo, Akwa Ibom, Rivers and Bayelsa are theirs too o. Though I'm not from Kogi (Kai) nor Anambra (iro o) but I strongly believe those wells are in Anambra. Those guys must have done their homework well before coming to the open to say its in Anambra you know.

The problem is not the people of kogi, the problem is their governor who wants kogi to be named oil producing state with two oil blocks only. He wants to incite the youths agaisnst their neighbors for selfish reason. As a matter of urgency, federal govt should step in and resolve this issue now before oil exploiration starts. Failure to do so, lost of life and properties will be involved.

Don't pick a war with ppl that are your friends on this site and out. I'm noticing some Igalas that've always been nothing but nice to Igbo on NL gearing up for attack. Ex: revolva. I understand why the Igbos are retaliating too but una are here attacking the wrong community. The Igala's have been our friends on this forum, take ur anger out on the mischievous outsiders that came into this thread to cause wahalla or better yet, ignore the mischievous outsiders. Shikena

I pity south s and south e leaders for the evil days ahead, how i wish they know, they sould have utilise this oil money well

naija...what else can i say

Mister, if you like let your village Igbedor be Kanuri or Fulfulde speaking part, it is not in my Anambra state. As far as i am concerned, Anambra is a homogeneous Igbo state, your Igala people are not even up to 0.001% of the population, so shove your f.cuking legend up your a.rse. You guys would soon join your Almajiri brothers in your Boko Haram republic, we dont want you. Gerrit?

Nawa ooooo! Dis oil wahala for naija. One or two oil well does not make a state an oil producing state na. All in the name of 13% derivation. Well, it will be 13% of the one or two oil well found.

Calm down brother. Igala people have been friendly to Igbos. . .

make we catch dem for omambala oil fields
thieving idiots

Musiwa your attention is needed here. We need the satellite pictures please...

Charles.nerd:


.Umuleri/Aguleri have seen inter-tribal war which lasted for so many years and was characterised by the use of sophisticated weapons and charms of unimaginable proportions. They are very skilled in the art of Guerilla warfare and could be heartless.

Yup. Some of them actually are heartless when it comes to retribution. Have had cause to relate with some of them personally.

But honestly, I was surprised when I saw this (... don't even know what to call it; uprising?) coming from Kogi state all of a sudden. Where had they been all the while Orient Pet was developing the fields and preparing for extraction and refining? I never for once, heard Kogi being mentioned in the scheme of things. Truly. All I was aware of then, was that the oil fields were located in Aguleri. Or was it the appearance of GEJ on the scene that spurred them into suddenly laying claims?

Since the Chairman of the board Orient Pet has acknowledged that some of the oil would be coming from lands located in Kogi state and given the strength of his character and past antecedents, I believe the issue would not escalate to the level of resolving it with guns and machetes. If the principal parties involved reason amicably.

i think orient petroleum should just cancel any exploration outside anambra to avoid confusion and controversy .

Haa haa! THE DAILY TRUST-HAUSA/FULANI PROPAGANDA MACHINE! even though they went as far as lying about the 20,000 refined crude bpd instead of 55.000 refined crude bpd, anyway, what else does one expect from oil greedy and thieving malam who hopes to use the people of Igala any how. I hope our Igala brothers and neihbours tell these boko harams to stay out of their business, and also make it crystal clear that they can't not be used by the ever oil hungry people of THE DAILY TRUST newspapers for their hidden agenda. The hausa/fulani have now realized the biggest blunder they made till date was not being able to carve anambra completely out of Igboland, i bet the tears on their blood greedy oil hungry face reads how come they didn't see that oil could be there or in any other part of proud Igboland, haa haa! Now whether the oil in Igalaland is 1% or 1000% of the entire ORIENT OIL BLOCKS, the truth remains that all stakeholders will get what is due to them and the people of THE DAILY TRUST should quit thinking they have found an opportunity to squeezing their mischiefs, by pretending to be the fighters for equity and justice, cos their (hausa/fulani) very own record of destruction is there for all to see especially in regard to mineral resources and the helpless communities that own them.

kunlekunle: this is decption, fraud and a deliberate act of diversifying another state resources to east.
A repeat of oil in the south and refinery in north.
oil in kogi but to be refined in anambra, a fool will accept your analogy of large deposit in anambra.
GGRREEEEED.

My advice for you is to keep OFF from your baseless claim, or in one night the AGULUERI boys will be unleashed on Kogi state, and what you did to us with the aid of foreign forces during the war, will be visited on you 1million times like the israelis did to palestinians. Try the greedy Igbos.

Probably the best solution.

EzeUche:

Calm down brother. Igala people have been friendly to Igbos. . .

It's alright bro, just that it angered me when these folks just came outta the blues and start claiming how related they are to the Igbos because of just 3 oil wells. When the chips are down, they would turn to their Hausa/Fulani masters for hand-outs. They are just confused fellows.

didn't igalla recently offer free land to igbo
this controversy is being spun by dailytheiftrust

I think igalas in kogi state should denounce their kogi state of origin and tell the world that they are from anambra state,that will save them from those vultures in northern states manipulating them and they will end up losing at the end of the day....

And many of the so called kogi people in this thread are actually not even from Igala, so it's what the Yorubas and hausa/fulanis do always with fake ids claiming other communities, some even sign in as Igbos too just to say horrible things against the Igalas hope you know it's nairaland after all.

Revolva:
Look at this idiot I am an igala and infact from ibaji gan gan and am happy for both anambra and kogi and the communities that will enjoy this -- and you here hatin fool greedy asshole callin and igalaman almajiri --ignorance -blinded by tribalism-dont you know we in ibaji share comon tradition with anamnbra igbos - we r your brother stop being greedy - anumanu

U are on point bro

i can imagine how their face will look when i close my eyes very scary....

Yes, i agree with you, so this nonsense can stop, and that might save us a lot of things.
