Thank God you put the blame on Zik.
Awolowo saw this rubbish happening now long time ago and wanted the whole south to be out of the force marriage luggard did for us but your father Azikwe blocked all the chances because of his own selfish interest and future blindness the North invoke on him....now his children are crying victims of the bad seed their father planted.

How I wish Azikwe and Awolowo are alive today.
Meanwhile, una just started oo.

I think you might want to edit your post. It's conveying a different message from the one you want conveyed!

As for Ndigbo sharing the same country with murderous, parasitic and very wicked people who despise them, after Lugard the next person i blame is Zik!

Mrfeel:

The arochukwu war was not the only igbo war with British how about the ekumeka war ?

That was Anioma people of Delta, and again it was like an insurgency, rebels attacking and trying to resist the occupation, same thing happened in Benin too, pockets of rebels resisted even after British took the town/state. I know every tribe had their warriors, but everyone knows Benin empire had the strongest warriors in the South then, that was the only way it could control so much areas, and even collect toll from Aworis on trade routes to access the Lagos market.

KwuoteYourFada:
written by who?

Captured in 4 days.

onumadu:


But you conveniently leave out where the same document you uploaded said that battles continued into Spring of 1902.
Oga, i tire for you.
But na here I leave the matta.
Do as you please.
Bye.

Exactly my point, resistance continued, but in warfare once your town/state have been captured and your rival hoist their flags, arrest or kill your leaders, and take over your commerce, administrative areas, resources, technically you have been defeated, unless you push them out of your town/state.

And anoima people are what ?


Earlier you cliaimed you binis are the only people that fought the colonys , others willingly accepted, now you change it to binis had the strongest warriors?

Corn247:
Weird! Igbos use to be about x2 of Yorubas before but now Yoruba speakers are about x2 of Igbo speakers.

Probably because they move more to Yorubaland and get yoruabanized on daily basis.
Yoruba is now the biggest tribe in Nigeria sha.

Izalai😎

Even the quote said the fight continued
Half baked education you people are receiving is alarming

Arochukwu didn't fall till spring which is around April 1902

Iti!

I said we never participated in colonial Nigeria arrangement...we never succumbed like you WAZOBIA people, I didn't say we alone fought them, you are misquoting me. I know that the battles were fought in Lagos Marina axis, Epe too was invaded, I know they invaded southeast, southwest and everywhere else in Nigeria, but my point is we never agreed with them in this arrangement. WAZOBIA are the unity beggars, and those that aided the colonization of Nigeria, which we are still suffering today.

Kingosytex:
That was prior this ravaging age of tribalism and ethnicity.
Meanwhile, I think that the population of the Igbos are being subdued for whatsoever reasons, may be political or so.

Not even igbos know the population of igbos.

Very good chance the first Nigerian you'll meet anywhere in the world is an igboman

My own adventurous blood has limits sha

Everywhere else, pockets of resistance kept fighting, but it clearly states "Arochukwu was captured in December 28 after 4 days of fighting "

They were not wrongly classified. They are all Edoid groups till now. They are different tribes but under the greater Edo nation based on linguistic and Anthropological affinity. Some are asserting different identity but it's all political

Again

You fought with the British and lost just like everyone else, the colony dividend and shared Africa amongst themselves , so what colonial arrangement are you talking about?

What is Edoid?

That is your own. Talking nonsense
Where did they put Igala,Ogoni etc


Refusing to think and making baseless assumptions

The reality is in 1921 the colonialist did not reach every corner of Nigeria especially the Niger Delta
You need to imagine what the country looked like practically and how much coverage the colonialist had in a country where there were no roads or radios

Food is ready for the victims carded buddies

Nnamdi Azikiwe, Akintola, Ahmadu Bello all agreed and worked with the colonialist, WAZOBIA sellouts.

funmijoyb:

The biafran war almost annihilated a lot of Igbos with killings of over 3 millions of Igbos. The entire tribe could have been wiped out by Hausa/Fulani's if not for timely response of Victor Banjo that surrendered to a Yoruba man by the name BLACK SCORPION. Unfortunately Ojukwu killed him to massage his Ego. Just like the "Peter Obi" lost his election but doesn't want to accept defeat due to Ego.

Didn't take long for the messaging to start...lol
Teaching history you didn't witness

Obi wanting a free n fair election and for rules to be followed is now about his ego.... smh
Just shrug off any abnormalities n move on... okay no problem

Tinubu overwhelmingly won Rivers State abi....Tell me more fantastic lies abeg

The person that won't do debate na him ego small

Crazy people 2m to 8m.

What is the source of this lie.
If you can not disclose a verifiable link with the photo you posted above then only fools should believe the lie.

Nigeria Population: 1921 CENSUS.
1] Yoruba ---------- 2,113,000
2] Igbo ------------- 3,927,000
3] Edo ----------------- 472,000
4] Ibibio --------------- 960,000
5] Ijaw ----------------- 174,000

igwebuike01:

Do you think this census only counted Igbos in Igboland? This is your greatest mistake, using SE to represent Igbos. The British counted Igbos Nationwide. If Nigeria include ethnicity in census the result will be the same. Nobody can "yorubanize" Igboman who owns a mansion in his village and returns home every Christmas

Kingosytex:

Meanwhile, I think that the population of the Igbos are being subdued for whatsoever reasons, may be political or so.

That figure is wrong.

A lot of ethic groups were classified under others

Is that the ethnic groups in Southern Nigeria? If no then that stats is false.

igwebuike01:

Which other tribes Mr man? The fake tribes you oil thieves created. Same tribes speaking igbo and practicing Igbo culture

We are not oil thieves, we don't speak ibo or have anything to do with you. Language and history isn't even similar. Only oil thieves and land grabbers are your people. Can't make a home of their houses, so you run to other people's home to claim relevancy.

That's how you fail exams

Even now Igbos are far greater in number than the Yorubas

In your dreams abi.

RepoMan007:
Urhobo, Ishan, Isoko, Itsekiri, Anioma, Calabars, Calabar? Are they camerounian tribes?

Strange.

kettykin:
So half of the population of the south was igbo was the civil so bad in the Igbos that they are now the third most populated tribe or is this one of Nigeria's attempt at revisionism

Ojukwu's Biafria war alone took like 3 million ibo lives.

That's what is forcing them out of their land. Highest population, highest birth rate with tiniest land and resources.

TooMuchStuff:
The greatest disservice to mankind is the existence of hausafulani in same country with South East n South South.
They have done enough damage to my people over 70 years ago by suppressed data on population and resource endowment that are second to non in Africa.

Imagine Igbos with 4million population in 1921 and Yoruba with just 2.1million at same period...

Yet, you are shouting one nigeria under obidddioot and waiting for 2027 to repeat another round of PVC idiocy to stay under the same fulani rule. What a buffoon. Hypocrite.

Azikiwe is useless to Igbo.

creativehubb:

That's why am telling you that Edos, Benin empire was the controller and protector of the south.

Igbos lived in small groups and hamlets, no empire, no army, no warriors. Edo people built the Benin city walls, Benin moat and defences. I have never heard of Igbo empire, history don't lie. We only know of Nri tribe, it was never an empire, and the Arochukwu clan, so where were your soldiers or glory at?

Igbos were scattered in bushes, no development, no civilization. Stop talking nonsense, you couldn't even defend yourself...there is no recorded wars between igbos and jihadists pre Nigeria times, no one ever heard of igbos in Midwest or southwest or south south, igbos were only active in southeast, and migrated into Ibibio, Efik areas, and formed the Arochukwu clan. Igbos had no strength or clout militarily pre Nigeria. Stop capping, we know history...you people only make mouth now because we live in civil organized times, with United nations, Amnesty etc, when tribes were ruling Africa you people were in the bushes hiding.

You people have never given Edos or South South nothing, all you do is to beg and form parasite everywhere...strategic depth when you attacked Benin even when your enemy was federal government forces. Snakes.

keep fighting igbos you idiot

Do electronic voting and see how Igbos determine election winners.

Do biometric census with transparency and see that Igbos are the largest nationality

Corn247:

Are you okay? Kwara people are 80% Yoruba so how and when were they erroneously counted as Yoruba?
