King Jaja Of Opobo: Igbo Or Ijaw Man? (the Untold Story) by ScannedNews: 10:20am On Aug 19, 2022 |
There have been disbelieving and counterclaims regarding whether the wealthiest and most powerful monarch in the Niger Delta and sole founder of Opobo, King Jaja of Opobo is an Igbo or Ijaw man. The business tycoon, 1821-1891, was born in his native Umuduruoha, Amaigbo, known in present-day as Imo State, and named by his parents, Mbanaso Okwaraozurumbaa at birth. According to findings, Opobo was captured by slave traders at twelfth age and traded into captivity in Bonny, where he earned his way out of slavery and also accepted the Ijaw-Ibani culture.

Pure fabrication from history twisters. Jaja never renounced his Igbo heritage in favour of Ijaw. Otherwise he wouldn't have been practising Omenala. The fact that he practised Omenala till his death was a clear evidence that he remained Igbo till his death. His omenala practise is well documented in accurate tales by neutral observers, so all these modern day revisionists won't succeed with this new twist. 7 Likes |

GreatBoss: Of course you are not Igbo. I agree with you. But the real inhabitants of Bonny and Opobo are Igbos. Didn't you see what the king of Bonny did to the guy that took the AMADABO title in an attempt to Ijawnize Bonny? You guys will have a massive problem with Ngwas, Ndokis and their Bonny and Opobo relatives, if care is not taken 2 Likes |

OfoIgbo: Stop deceiving yourself. Till today, all Ibani towns have Amadabo just like all Ijaw towns. Amayanabo is Clan head. You know nothing about Ijaw. We are Ijaws. |

Bonny and Opobo have always been Ijaw from day one. Even if they start speaking Spanish tomorrow, they will still be Ijaws. Pathetic igbo desperado expansionists. |
