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. 10 Likes 1 Share |

DeadCountry: Was Micheal Opara not a Nigerian? Did Micheal Opara build Portharcourt with his money? Did Micheal Opara build our PH homes? Did Micheal Opara cultivate the lands? Did micheal Opara navigate the seas? We all collectively built our country through commerce and infrastructure, while different leaders managed that wealth in various ways.. Nigerians built Nigeria, not one man, one ethnic group nor one region. 12 Likes 3 Shares |

You think that the history of Nigeria is sealed because your boys in the army sat at their dingy offices to draw the map of the east as they like?

Sergio104: 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 Lord Lugard also founded Enugu and Umuahia around the same time as Port Harcourt 10 Likes |

Owontime: The Igbos cannot be a serious Political Power Bloc without their immediate south south Neigbhours It was Ordained that way by God Almighty Just look at their Geography Their south south Neigbhours have a near Stranglehold over their Territory , Igboland can hardly do anything without their support The Prayer that the south south People Prayed to God must have been very mighty indeed because God Gave them almost all the Jokers cards for Nationhood Sea Ports, Agricultural Land, Mineral Resources The only serious Political joker Card the Igbos have is Industrous Population but it is not enough When Gen Alabi Isama wrote in his book "Tragedy of Victory" that Igboland stands on 2 legs , Calabar and Port Harcourt and Ojukwu lost the War because he had failed to take the legs of Igboland Seriously , Gen Isama definitely understood what he meant 4 Likes |
