They are already all crying in their Facebook pages.
It's wailing galore.
Anyone thinking that a day will not come when Anioma and indeed all parts of Igboland currently in SS will reunite with SE is actually living in a fools paradise.
Blood is strong and language is a strong magnet!
They will learn the hard way!

I didn't even see any of their noises on nwoko's FB post.

Reading comments from that post gladdens my heart.

Anioma state over Orlu state

pazienza:


Life can be that way when it comes to survival.
Many of our SE politicians have also thrown the Igbo tag or acted Igbophobic in public to prove their commitment to Nigeria to non Igbo Nigerians.
It is what it is. We can not keep dwelling on the past, we shouldn't have put ourselves in position where we had to pass through what we passed through the last 50 years was possible.
We messed up, we couldn't defend Anioma or other peripheral Igbo speaking regions from Nigerian military, so the people did what they must do to survive and retain their ancestral lands.

I understand were you are coming from but a traitor will always remain a traitor...adios

CJStarz:

I support the creation of Anioma State to Orlu state.
@AnsMedia, what's your take on carving a whole Ozubulu into Orlu state?
Doesn't make sense at all.
Ndi Ozubulu no ebea,are you guys ok with it?

We aren't interested in Orlu state, Anioma state will get our full support

ggood:
in which local government have u seen even a councilor from Igbo extraction in Akwa Ibom before

They are just a few communities not up to a ward cant u read?

There re ibibios in Abia too

Obi1kenobi:


What does ESN and IPOB have to do with state creation?

if anioma is created from delta ipob will tell the citizens to sit at home every mon,Tues and Wednesday and deltans don't want this in their state simple..the stupidity of ipob most not cross the river Niger bridge

I thought Ned is representing south south people according lazy people

Zulu11zulu:
that is the best solution not olu state the south east should support him on this.

Anioma is igbo land igbo land is anioma land no body can separate us wee will get there.

KGBKremlin:


Creating Igbo state in Benin land are you people normal?

please explain

Austinio:
You guys are funny sha. Is Asaba part of South East or south south.

When was Delta as a state created? Did you even read Ned Nwoko's bill? A historical mistake that he sought to correct through the house...
Chukwuma Nzeogu was he not from Asaba? Why was the coup called Igbo coup? This is historical misnomer done to weaken the Igbo people. In 1978 Obigbo was taken away from Imo state and was given to Rivers. Ohaji Egbema was divided into two. If tomorrow they want to come back to Imo state you will still be asking are they not in south south?

Heavenly Father please No!

Ibo land ends at the River Niger. We like Delta State exactly as it is. Any Deltan that is not satisfied should relocate to the east where they and their clan/families can be resettled.

I doubt if Ned Nwoko as a brilliant international lawyer who is from Aniocha North LGA made this statement of referring to the proposed Anioma State as the "6th South East" state because he knows full well that the people that make up what is NOW known as Anioma ancestrally come from multiple ethnic groups of Bini, Esan, Yoruba, Igala, Nri, etc. Several towns in the different parts of Anioma know their ancestral origins and NOBODY can just push everybody to join the South East. This is the reason why when the Nigerian Civil War took place the bearded rebel leader and his group of secessionists did NOT dare to include Delta North in the rebel enclave. Even the people of Onitsha (as told by Olisa Agbakoba, SAN, who granted an interview in 2006 where he said he and his older teenage brother were arrested and forcibly conscripted by the secessionists during the two-years-six months Nigerian Civil War. Olisa Agbakoba's lawyer father was in Lagos during the War) who are an Anioma people on the Eastern side of River Niger that had been balkanized into the Eastern Region by the British after the Ekumeku War led by Issele Uku and other Anioma allies from Olukumi (Yoruba descent) commanders in Aniocha North and more were NOT enthusiastic about joining the so-called secession in 1967. This is also why Dr. Ukpabi Asika from Onitsha was the Administrator of the newly created East Central State and did not align with the rebel secessionists.

Even Asaba, Ebu, Illah and Okpanam have significant Igala origins. Nnebisi of Asaba whose father was of Igala ethnicity we know full well from history gave all his children Igala names.

Reverend Father (Dr.) Kunirum Osia who is from Obamkpa in Aniocha North in Delta North of Delta State had granted interviews in the past where he emphasized on the mixed ethnic origins of Anioma folks and he said CLEARLY that it is wrong to refer to Delta North as Delta Ibo, so, YOU cannot say that Anioma State is an Ibo State (even though there were some migrants who came from areas on the East of River Niger such as Nri). That is HIGHLY irresponsible and Ned Nwoko would NEVER say that, and if the Facebook post is not fake and he did say so, then he must be testing the waters to see reactions and stimulate discussions.

We Need Arewa Republic,Odua Republic & Biafra Republic
Nothing like Any Additional Creation of States

Nonsense! If you can't develop Delta North and Delta State as a whole, what will change if you get Anioma state? Does statehood come with extra brain cells that leaders will start thinking straight? Abegi! These lawmakers are jobless. Why not propose more severe sanctions for people that have pillaged Delta State. Una wan create another dimension of thievery. Ndi oshi...

People are just terribly gaulibles and they think, their-wishful thinking is in flight mode!
Can you imagine a Senator, cruising with the Creations of State,when he knows it's not Possible!
Please,ask the Senator - what about the Clause in the 1979 Constitution - that says ' it must Pass through the 2/3 of the States in Nigeria, without objection ' or Mr Senator,has that Lacuna been removed overnight by you now?
Or does it means the gentleman is not aware of the Constitution Provisions?
May be he de play!
Over to the gaulible audiences for Una Kikiki,Lori Asan!

Anioma land is already well defined.
It is called Delta North Senatorial District. Ned Nwoko didn't need to provide the detail, any politically aware Nigerian should know when Anioma is located.

Don't mind them, they don't know where Anioma is again.

But they know Igbo coup and who headed it and where he's from

Onitsha people can leave the land if they don't want to be Igbos. The land belongs to the East

No disunity.
Orlu state proposal is good, but Anioma is better!
Orlu will have to take a back stage for a greater cause which Anioma represents.
Anioma reunification with SE has been on the front burner since 1939 when Bernard Burdillion the then British administrator of Nigeria divided the old Southern Protectorate into Western and Eastern region and ended up adding Western Igbo to Western region.
Western Igbo kings protested against this injustice and wrote Bernard Burdillion to return them to Eastern region with their kin and kiths, but the British didn't hearken to this call.
Since then the likes of Osadebey Dennis and other Western Igbo leaders have been working on this.
I'm glad Ned Nwoko has stepped up to take up the mantle of this noble and divine task (. ), Ndiigbo in SE must do our bit. We must do proper consultations with Ned Nwoko, get other voices in Anioma on the round table and make this dream a reality.
It's the dawn of a new era! Ife ga adi MMA!

Well said bro. Anioma is more important than orlu. We need to unite our brothers
