See what Captain Hugh Crow recorded in 1830.
I posted the shot of the numbers but if you need more on the language he met in Ubani and Opobo, click the link.

Nwanne, You obviously see a man who sleeps and wakes up to Seamans schnapp and local gin as his luxury breakfast, lunch and dinner yet you're engaging him even when it's clear he's clearly trying to bait Igbos into his ogogoro-induced rants of stupor, just learn to ignore certain stupid topics and they die a natural death... you dey fall hand sha.

Thank you for this.

In fact, the captain started compiling his findings from 1790. It was then published in 1830. Tell the creek rats to show us their counting way in Bonny as recorded by neutral observers in Bonny, before 1790. They shouldn't just consult Robbstark to write down his 1 to 10 counting.

Any Ibani of Bonny counting that is later than 1790 fails the test. It has to be earlier than 1790

I think you skipped the last part of my post.
I said "I am not here to argue"
The post was to set record straight with fact before lies start passing as truth.
Unlike the history part which has been set straight, this counting system is a new development and must be addressed on time before damage is done.

If anybody challenged Alagoa in 1971, we won't be having this conversation with Ijaw people today.

The captain was a professional and was neutral.
Much better than illiterate ogogoro drinking persons dishing out fake news. grin
Problem with Bonny and Opobo, is that everything about both Islands were both well documented by the colonial masters.

If Ndiigbo take Ijaws to world court over both Islands, we would win, if you refuse to obey the court, we treat you in a language you understand.
Better enjoy your Hausa-Fulani friends one NIGERIA while it lasts.
Because from here upwards, nah downward spiral for you lots.

But the good captain also told you all that UBANI was first settled by Igbos.

Dr. Baikie also repeated the same fact in 1850. The Ijaws there are just illegal immigrants grin grin

Opobo is owned by Jaja's descendants who are clearly Igbo.

Opobo is even named after an Igbo king of Bonny.

Igbos will win in Ubani and Opobo cases.

Even Dakuku Peterside, the most famous politician from Opobo, accepts the Igbo roots of Opobo

Jaja went with loyalists and their families from Bonny.

Omoyele Sowore not only speaks Yoruba, he has Yoruba names like other Apoi people. While I'm not deciding the ethnic identity of Apoi people for them, it's just a fact that Apoi people have been Yorubanized.
