You and I know quite well that you cannot threaten anyone withing the federal republic of Nigeria including Bonny and Opobo. This thread is not about igbos from other states coming to take over or becoming Bonny and Opobo people(except through marriage). It is about Bonny and Opobo igbos asserting themselves and stop believing the lies they have been sold for decades.
I hope you get the point now. They are already in Bonny and Opobo. It's not a threat my biased OP. I implored him to welcome them well.I know they won't even get close,but if they do he should treat them well. You are free to go there and see for yourself.Don't believe these online rants.

Most of them are Ijaws who make a group to grab, that has been your way. If Igbos do their own you'll call them grabbers like you people. You people should be authentic. And the funny part of it all, most of the videos on that group are Bonny and Opobo people speaking unadulterated Igbo. No Ijaw.
Then you'll see the Ijaws saying, 'I love my Opobo people"

I believe Ijaws are grabbing this or taking advantage of Opobo and Bonny because they desire to take the full power of the coast. I assure you if there was no crude oil or people didn't use the sea to trade, you'll see Ijaw calling them Igbo people. They want to take over all of the coast from Lagos to Opobo, perhaps they'll move to Akwa Ibom soon, and begin to take a weak part of their family to take advantage on and begin to tell them stories from hell that they are Ijaw and Ibibio stole their land from them.  . We all know, but the funny part of it all is, if you have all the coastal waters what do you do with it, except you want to be collecting surcharge from we at the hinterland. Why? It doesn't make sense. I believe that's Ijaws main motive. They know Igbos are main trading people, so this is business and Opobo and Bonny are hot spots. Lagos and Ondo had luck that they didn't bring Ijaws in, in their lands in large number or they weren't close to them, if not Yoruba's would have been having this stress. 2 Likes |

Ijos bought Igbo slaves(mostly) and slaves from ethnic groups around.The Elders at time chose to use the language of the slaves to trade with the Europeans and other Igbo merchants from the hinterland.Their thinking as silly as it was,was to prevent outsiders (slaves et al) from learning their language.That way they could keep certain secrets.
Also,a lot of Igbo slaves were made part of the canoe houses after passing through certain rites.These slaves still had their language and they taught their children.Before long,Igbo language became dominant. Ijaw bought slaves with which money? What did you pay with? 2 Likes |

I'm talking about large numbers. Let me tell you something. Do you know it was just last year I knew Ijaws were in Ondo. And they don't give you people chance to represent in anything. Sowwore tried to find his path himself. They don't even want to associate with them, that's why Ijaws are turning to Yoruba speedily there.
And this year I knew they were in Lagos, but in very small numbers. Perhaps, Yorubas dcut your population, becuase they didn't want these issues. Becuase you people can be counted there, a sultry sum of 20,000-100,000 The majority will always dominate the minority. Ijaws are minority in Ondo,but that's not the reason they are almost "Yorubanized".Ijaws tend to bear the names of the location they were born,learn the language and blend in. |
