You got it wrong. Anioma was coined when Delta State senatorial district started agitating for their state creation. In Anioma alone, there are from 8-11 ethnic groups including Ika, Olukumi, Bini, even Igbo. Get your fact right before posting.
Wow.

Bini itself is Yoruba. Unless you want count Bini as foreigner.

lol...I hope you have time for a history lesson coz your own is deep.

Bini does not have a single trace of Yoruba.

Oral history posits that the people of igodomido were visited by a yoruba prince called oranmiyan whom they welcome and invited to rule over them.

However, these people were cantankerous and oranmiyan grew frustrated and left. That was the beginning and ending of yoruba influence in Benin and within the bini.

And Ibeno , though they are mixed with Ibibio
Ibeno can't be counted as ijaw because the ibibio influence there overrides ijaw influence. I know ibeno peeps who speak only ibibio and answer ibibio names.
Is ifum udoh an ijaw name?
Check ibeno platforms on FB and you'll see most of them answering bassey,udoh,Edet,ekpo,etc and those are definitely not ijaw names.

Ogiso itself were chiefs sent from Ife.

Anything South of Benue took its root in Ife....including Igbo.

CrossRiver and Akwa should have been in Cameroon because they are geneticcally non-Ife. Everything else in the South had footprint in Ife.

The First Ogiso was Ogiso Igodo
The last Ogiso was Ogiso Owodo...

It is not ukuwale, but it is ukwuani or kwalle and one is categories as ndokwa. While the other is known as just ukwuani.
Obviously, you are not from Delta state.otherwise you would have known that these two clans are not grouped under anioma constituency but have their own L.G.A.

Is there a ploy already, to marginalise these "ethnic groups" in spite of the fact that they have more in terms of human resources in the Niger delta.

Why didn't you display the picture of Dennis Osadebay, Col. Joe Achuzia, Gen. (Obong) Philip Efiong, Chief M. T Mbu, Chief N. U Akpan who were very notable Niger Deltans?

Although Yorubas are minority in Edo likewise the Igede in cross river but they should be recognized.

There is different between NDDC states and Niger Delta.

Crude oil was first discovered in the Niger delta that is why the commission is named Niger delta development commission.

I expect govt to renamed it to Oil Producing State Development Commission as other states outside the Niger delta region now have crude oil.

Niger Delta that only exists in your psychotic skull.
