LukasPodolski:

They are not the most populous in SS either.

Using 2006 census.
Akwa ibom 3million (of which about 2million are Ibibio)

Rivers 5million (of which at least 2million are ijaw)

Bayelsa 1.7million (of which at least 1.3million are ijaw)

Delta, Ondo has indigenous ijaw.

Ibibios can only be found in Akwa ibom (at 2million)

Basically the population of ijaw in rivers and Bayelsa +Delta is quite larger than ibibio

oluztx:
Yorubas and Northerners call them Calabar because they don't them very well, have never known them, all because of One Nigeria oil they pretend we know each other. But Igbos know them very well as neighbors even without them saying a damn word, we can tell you whether they are Ibibio, Efik, Annang or Ika(Igbo).

Do you know you can identify an Ibibio from Annang and Efik? Ibibio look very much like Igbos than Ananng and Efik. They have flat heads light Igbos, muscular, yam legs and light skin too. The light skin you see in Akwa-Cross Axis are mostly Ibibio. Annag and Efik are 95% dark skin like Gov Ayade, while Ibibio share the same makeup of light skin as Igbos, about 30-40%. That's why Adekunle went to Ibibioland and killed over half a million young men. When asked why he massacred them? He said Ibibio and Igbo are one and the same people. Hope you learned something today

are all ijaw clans in Rivers state, yet you think that ijaws are a miniority in Rivers state. oboy your head they touch.

kollinzgee:
Any big city you go to Nigeria especially in the south after the original indigenes the next biggest tribe you will see are the Igbos after igbos are the ibibios or we prefer to call them calabars. Do you notice this too?

richmond500:
do u even understand my statement? I said Ijaw is the most populous in SS region, u went ahead to say how they are not the most populous then gave statistics showing they are the most populous

LukasPodolski:

They are not the most populous in SS either.

Using 2006 census.
Akwa ibom 3million (of which about 2million are Ibibio)

Rivers 5million (of which at least 2million are ijaw)

Bayelsa 1.7million (of which at least 1.3million are ijaw)

Delta, Ondo has indigenous ijaw.

Ibibios can only be found in Akwa ibom (at 2million)

Basically the population of ijaw in rivers and Bayelsa +Delta is quite larger than ibibio

LukasPodolski:

Yes from my experience, there are more Hausas than Igbos in Lagos, just that the Hausas lives in group, the Okada hustle alone is enough to tell.

oluztx:


Yoruba man, the problem with you people is you don't know Eastern people, you stay in yorubaland and asking why Oron, Ibibio and Annang will not accept to be one. Why do you wan them to be one? Are they the same? Do you know that Ibibio share more in common with Igbos than Oron and Annang? Useless One Nigeria dividing and joining people left and right anyhow.

Graysons:
You have time to answer that clown

mancoconut:


GTFOH, look at this delusional idiot, Ijaws are creek dwelling migrants in Rivers state, your only homogeneous homeland is Bayelsa.

SaintBishop:
The groups i mention are in their ancestry lands which is in Rivers state, they identified with their ijaw roots.
If you are not a uneducated,dumb baboon, from a worthless and good for nothing criminal tribe,you will know that those clans i mention are proud of their ijaw heritage and wants nothing to do with unwanted Okoro monkeys from israel

jamesversion:


With all he listed, Ijaws can never make up 2million in 5Million Rivers state Population.

Graysons:
And he's calling you the delusional one lol.

LukasPodolski:
It's too early for this nonsense.

Firstly, from my experience in this Lagos so far, The Hausas are second most populous.

Fulani at 15million are the fourth, TIV, Ijaw, Nupe in that order

kollinzgee:


Ijaws are not even up to 7 million what is the population of bayelsa and delta where they mostly reside i barely met an ijaws in Lagos and portrait court..

richmond500:
they are the most populous in SS region, though I think Fulani is the fourth most populous then TIV, then Kanuri followed by Ijaw.

By the way, which one is portrait court? If u meant portharcourt then u should know that its very difficult to group and know people by their individual tribes her in PH, as we hardly identify ourselves by our different tribe, that's why we always have problem with Ipobs on NL cos they don't understand that here we prefer a common identity

Captain8:
wrong...totally wrong... what males you think fulanis or kanuris are more than Ijaws?

you some ignorant eastern Ijaws always judge the Ijaws with your eastern look.... am tired of some of you rivers Ijaws... do you know the population of we western Ijaws that dominate delta state and still found much in edo and ondo?
Moreover I schooled in Bayelsa, had my childhood is Rivers, therefore I am very much aware of how populated ijaw is

mancoconut:

How many states are Kanuri's indigenous to? I think Ijaws have a slight edge over Ibibios for 4th, but the Ibibios might as well have a good argument for been the 4th largest ethnic group in Nigeria cause Ijaws are a very tiny minority in Rivers, Delta, and Ondo states.

Eastlink:
There are no Ijaws in Rivers state. Anybody claiming Ijaw in Rivers is a Bayelsa migrant. All Ijaws moved to Bayelsa in 1996.

malcom1X:


Ijaws don't even leave their state due to oil money, how then are they the largest?
That guy doesn't even know what he's saying.

Captain8:
mumu what males one to travel is to get daily food or business.... then why should Ijaws leave the oil business and travel?

how did you count bayelsa and delta population?

Ijaws largest blocks are rivers bayelsa and delta... then Ijaws are edo ondo akwa ibom...

what did you even used to count the exact populations of nigeria?

who can travel into sea and creeks to count all Ijaws?
Ijaws are more than 20million

Captain8:
what are you talking?
Ijaws are 60% in rivers state.....and 35% in delta state...
Ijaws are only tiny in edo ondo akwa ibom...

richmond500:
no deh disgrace urself na.

I am Rivers state and we aren't 60%, we are second most populous after Ikwerre, we can't be 60% and still maintain second most populous

KristaPretty:
I've never met an Ibibio person in my entire existence.
