Ariani:Only a truthful population census will determine this |

OfoIgbo: Where is the 1.5 to 2 million coming from? Mind you that even in Bayelsa, there are groups who are anthropologically never Ijaws but identify as Ijaw today even when the languages are distinct and no way related to Izon. I can these ones political Ijaws. Groups like Epie, Atissa fall into this category. And in Rivers you have Engenni, Andoni, Abua, Odual, Degema, etc. These groups are distinct ethnicities with distinct languages, but are politically Ijaw today. Ijaw numbers at most 1.5 total, after substrating the political Ijaws from the ethnic Ijaws. 7 Likes |

tutudesz: Common observation can also give us clues. When you leave PH and Bayelsa, you hardly meet Ijaws anywhere else . They are not that populous. But you see Ibibios even in far north. Igbos you can see even in the most remote places in the North and SW. 3 Likes |

Ariani:An average Ijaw man can stay in another location without you knowing his ethnic group. Oyo state has a large number of Ijaw people and Kano state, but you will not know 3 Likes |

tutudesz: Lies. If they have significant population, they can't hide. People will know. They will hold local meetings, probably have a Pere, etc. Ijaw is the 8th most populous ethnic group in Nigeria, if we remove sentiments. 3 Likes |

OfoIgbo:six Ijaw LGAs in delta state... bomadi 100% Ijaw.. burutu 100% Ijaw.. patani 100% Ijaw.. wari nort Ijaw Itsekiri.. wari sout Ijaw Itsekiri.. wari south west Ijaw urhobo... so you name 9 fictitious LGAs? |
Re: Putting Straight The Ijaw Population Saga by Ariani: 8:38pm On Jul 27, 2021 |
Captain8: Lies. Ijaws are only found in Warri SW and no where else in Warri, I think. If you have significant population in Delta South, you would have produced a Senator for the zone by now. 3 Likes |

Ariani:Local meetings guy we don't have kings outside Ijaw land, what we have is either IYC or INC chapter |
Re: Putting Straight The Ijaw Population Saga by Ariani: 8:42pm On Jul 27, 2021 |
tutudesz: Same thing. If you have significant population in a place, you will be visible and the local power players there would seek for your collective votes during state elections. Ijaw is a minute ethnic group. I have travelled all over Nigeria and I know this. Even GEJ is not ethnically Ijaw. Ogbia is only politically Ijaw. All things being equal, Ogbia should be an independent ethnic group, considering the fact that their language is totally distinct from Izon. 7 Likes |

Captain8:. Mumu how does ijaws own 12 lga in Rivers state and ikwerre 6 lga in Rivers state.u are high in weed. Ijaws own only 4 lga and small section in Rivers state. Opobo, nkoro, Borny Andoni are not ijaws. The ikwerry lga are obiokpo phalga, emohua, and ikwerre lga. And all these are igbos. So igbos in Rivers state constitutes 60 % in Rivers state. Eg. Egbema, Etche, Omuma, Obigbo, ikwerre, Opobo, Borny. Ndoni ogba etc. 4 Likes |

Captain8: No shakes mbre. No shakes. Parts of Ph like Okujago, okuru, amadi ama abuloma, Borikiri are all Ijaw land I see how you have been schooling them. Weldone The thing they fail to know is that the Ijaw man is not a noise maker in his place of dwelling even in foreign land. We just go about our biz, that's all. |
Re: Putting Straight The Ijaw Population Saga by Ariani: 9:06pm On Jul 27, 2021 |
tutudesz: Ogbia is only politically Ijaw. Ogbia language is totally distinct and different from Ijaw. We should be telling ourselves the truth in this country. There are too many lies already. Everyone is aware that Makinde wife is Ijaw while Akerreodolu wife is Igbo. What exactly does that have to do with anything? Oshiohmole wife is from Cape Verde. What does that have to do with the population of Cape Verde people in Nigeria? 5 Likes |
Re: Putting Straight The Ijaw Population Saga by Ariani: 9:08pm On Jul 27, 2021 |
Captain8: Engenni owns 1/3 of Ahoada west and they are a distinct ethnic group. Their language is Edoid. They are only currently politically affliated to Izons for political gains of pipeline protection contract that Ijaws had cornered in Niger Delta. The remaining 2/3 of Ahoada West belongs to Ekpeye,a distinct and independent Igboid group. 5 Likes |

Ariani:Ogbia is a sub group of Ijaw, just like Ika is a sub group of Igbo Makinde did a town hall meeting with Ijaw in Oyo state and he was surprised that the hall couldn't contain them, we have close to 10k Ijaws in Oyo |
