I think this thread is misleading. When you say 'South-South' hero, what do you mean? In my understanding, it should mean someone who has impacted positively on the South-South geo-political zone, not some tribal hero. Neither Boro, Oba Akenzua or Wiwa ever heard of anything called 'South-South'. Boro and Wiwa were heroes of the Ijaw and Ogoni ethnic nationalities. I have no problem with a group of ethnic groups coming together and calling themselves by whatever name, but let it be by consensus. Not because some crazy military man drew an imaginary map. It is infuriating for me as an Anambra man to look across the River Niger into the Igbo city of Asaba and an Ijaw man is telling me that I'm looking into the 'SS', a term not even recognised in the constitution.
