cl0r0x:All those idiots writing in front page doesn't even know what's going on.. both Effium and Ezza are Igbo speaking people who have lands extending in both Ebonyi and benue state, but is like the ones living in benue state are having crisis within themselves. Both of them are Igbos, it's just an internal war that ohaneze has failed to look into.

Papayaayasager:You don't have sense. And also the person that taught you that history too is ment. Ezza people are originally from Onueke. It was of so many dispute, some of them were displaced to Benue, Enugu and Anambra. I guess you didn't know all this because you too ran from your village to go and occupy another mans village and called it yours. 1 Like |

Papayaayasager:Phyna is not an Igbo girl from Edo state, she is an Edo girl from Igueben, a town in Esan land which is referred to as the Bini part of Esan land, because of all Esan towns, Igueben is closest to Bini linguistically, that is why she commonly refers to herself as a Bini girl. She only happen to have an Igbo mother, don’t misinform the public, Her name is Ijeoma Otabor, Otabor is an Edo name through and through,It means the evening tide favors me, there are other names in similar vein, Idubor, Irabor, isibor, Edobor, Ikubor, Asabor, etc the ijeoma certainly came from her mom 3 Likes |

JagabanB:Benue should be up to 6.5 to 7million as they have a voters registration figure of about 2.8 million registered voters. That’s a whooping sum, above that of Ogun and anambra respectively. But the Igbos there will not be up to 1 million, at most 3 hundred thousand |

Jamestown123: You need to back to school and understand the meaning of indigenous and ancestral land related issues 1. if they were displaced was the land they recently occupied in Benue state empty when they occupied it? 2. How come no other tribes from Benue state live among them to show they migrated to the state? 3. how come they dominate four senatorial districts in the state? Ewu Yoruba...Abobaku 1 Like

Well, in as much as I know the Igbos to always drag land with people and some miscreants will come online to defend them. Lagos was the first, then Delta government started with them, now benue people. But I can assure you that another will sprout out of kogi state soon. I was in my hometown okene last month in Kogi State and I found out that Igbos have already started acquiring large expanse of land naming it as ndi Igbo street. I laughed and shook my head.

Jamestown123:There is no indigenous Ezza in Anambra. For the ones in Benue,it’s an extension of the Ezzas in Effium in Ohaukwu LGA of Ebonyi who were carved into Benue. Same for the ones in Enugu. Will you say there are no Yorubas in Kogi state? 2 Likes |

Mentorme:In fact Ado is just a local government, that comprises of Agila, Igumale, Ufia and some other groups that I can not remember their name. Agila shares a border with ezza and effioms, This people knows their land border before Benue state was created. The ezza people you see in Ado LG today came to settle in Agila when the war broke out. Before a state is created, they will be a borderline that identifys this place as my community, and the other place for the other community. |

Ogbuu101:When you said carved is what I don't agree with or even understand self. Do you mean this people were asked to leave their ancestry home and come and become part of Benue or Enugu? Do you know yala in Ogoja, Cross river, shares the same history and lineage with the people of Akpa in Otukpo Benue state? Were the Ogoja people forced or carved into cross river? This ezza people were already living and farming in Agila before the creation of Benue state. This is not a 30 to 50 years history my bro 1 Like |
