No

Lord Lugard founded Port Harcourt at an Ikwere and Ijaw Settlement previously called Rebisi

The Only Town that Igbos built without British Help prior to Colonisation was Onitsha and many agree that it was Benin that had a lot to do with it because it was a River Port of Benin Kingdom

Tge only answer here that actually speaks the truth

Lionnation:
point of correction, there are no ijo villages in portharcourt, we are not talking about rivers state

Your mistaken, at the time of construction port harcourt was located at rebisi, but soob expanded to incorporate neighbouring villages, including those from okrikra and ogoni villages

Lionnation:
point of correction, there are no ijo villages in portharcourt, we are not talking about rivers state

So Borokiri and oru polo are what? So you don't know that all those places are ijaw people their villages? Keep quiet if don't have a clue about the history of Port Harcourt

All the Igbos arguing on these thread about building Port Harcourt are capital fools and can never see beyond their noses...Ask yourself this pertiment question: Why is hope Uzodinma making this statement now....Very simple : To cause disaffection between rivers and Igbos during this election season and you all fell for it hook line and sinker...The agbadorians are quiet on this thread and helping stoke rivalry between Ruvers and Igbos hoping to reduce the affection Peter Obi has in Rivers. I am Igbo but my brothers are too damn impulsive to see beyond their noses. APC is playing the ethnic politics and you are supplying them the needed ammunition arguing about who built Port Harcourt..Hope Uzodinma will be laughing after causing division between the Igbos and Rivers people. Can't you emotional beings see their traps....All their plans for next year is ethnicity in the south and religion in the north....APC is a party from hell.

He's very correct on this one though.

But Uzodinma after saying this Don't step on Wike's toes, to avoid hot resounding slap.

How will he step on Wike's toes, does Wike agree with his assertions?

Your right on this one, they utilise tribalism for gain, withhold history and abuse the truth.

M4A1carbine:


You want to use Wike Bashing to get praise or support??

2nd term dey hungry you badly...I hope say you go campaign around IMO State..

Why do you think he is saying this for clout?

But they failed to build Owerri.

Sergio104:
First time I have to agree with supreme court governor.

Igweocha/ugwu ọcha(PH) was the heartland of the igbos.

When brothers know each other.

When ikweres still value the big brotherhood of their igbo kins

When Omenala igbo still has an aura to all igbo roots.

When ijaws still respect the brotherhood.

For now, we know how we relate. PH still remain our heartland but not without caution. Because if you stoop so low, even kids in the arena will rub shoulder with you.

What is the gubernatorial election update in your area?
