scholes0:That's the origin of the WARRI CRISIS of 1997... The Ijaws definitely are old age occupants who the government created a LGA for {Abacha} but the Itsekiri disagree as the citing of the headquarters at the Ijaw concentration saying it's their land so the administration bloc should be among their people... The Ijaws are JUST a microcosm so no much say... |

Re: Meet The 10 Most Powerful Kings In Nigeria. by scholes0(m): 9:46pm On Jul 13, 2015 |
Freemanan: interesting. So what is your take on the entire issue? was it right for the government to situate the headquarters of a new Warri Local government in an Ijaw settlement? |
Re: Meet The 10 Most Powerful Kings In Nigeria. by Nobody: 9:49pm On Jul 13, 2015 |
scholes0:WARRI SOUTH WEST LGA.... I didn't see anything wrong with it. It was to give them a sense of belonging here... |
Re: Meet The 10 Most Powerful Kings In Nigeria. by scholes0(m): 9:54pm On Jul 13, 2015 |
Freemanan: I see... But like you said earlier- the land was ancestrally Itsekiri land... Moreso, the Ijaws already had their own local governments. What will happen, if the government chooses to create a new LG in the Burutu area, and put the headquarters in a small Itsekiri settlement? I am sure the Ijaws won't take that lightly. I personally feel/think the Itsekiris are being bullied by their larger neighbors. |

Freemanan: Educate a bro here. ![]() I am pretty sure the Itsekiris are being bullied.... if they were not, the Ijaw militants boys wouldn't be continually frustrating efforts to build the Ogidigben Gas revolution industrial park, just because the multi billion Dollar project is on Itsekiri land. I call that jealousy... lol |

Very useless post. On what basis do u classify these as the most powerful? is it based on the largeness of their territory? The population of their subjects/followers? or their historical greatness? @OP How can kings like Shehu of Borno, Gbon gwom Jos, Attah of Igala land, Aku Uka of Wukari and Lamido Adamawa not be here and u are having the likes of Obi of Agbor? Tell me in what aspect does a common king like Obi of Agbor who is king over just one small town in Delta state surpasses any of the kings i mentioned. The Shehu of Borno is d ruler over the whole large Borno state and by extension the whole Kanem-bornu land which includes Yobe state and u are saying the kings of just some small towns are more powerful. The OP of this post proved that he is not well travelled and widely read at all. Nigeria is bigger than what u think. No single King from the middlebelt region or the North east and u are calling this a list. |

loool, pretty Ironic when Igbos say they have no King, but they are all rushing in hordes to like the picture of the Obi of Onitsha .... |

ogbonti: Some Western Igbo (Anioma) communities have al2ays had Kings but there were very effective checks and balances to prevent tyranny. Most Eastern Igbo communities disallowed kings as a whole and practised democracy in its purest form. |

The author most be an illiterate person. Alafin is only a Duke, the onni of ile ife is only a Duke. The oba of benin is only a Duke. Oba of lagos. Is only a Duke all obas are dukes I am going to show people old picture. I am the emperor of the country of western Nigeria. When I told you, they were dukes. You never believe me , till Jonathan good luck open inside aso rock and you saw 2 flags. I am the emperor that why I know so much. I will tell you about my family history. I don't live a famous life or fly private jet like pastor adeboye or oyedepo. But by international law. I am their oga. The problem pastor oyedepo has with the UK. Is something that if pastor oyedepo write me an apology letter. Unhalf of the independent country of the kingdom of western Nigeria. I will inform the queen of England. Of a need to pardon pastor oyedepo. All this people are dukes But pastor oyedepo does not know I am his oga. Not buhari. Voting inside the country of western Nigeria is considered oversea voting. So I am the one pastor oyedepo need to get pardon in the united kingdom. That why I have been the one who have been dealing with the international community. |

FREEEMANAN: OP JUST SHUT UP WITH UR CRAP. 1. AGBOR IS NOT IGBO 2. OMINIJE IS REFER TO INDEGENES OF AGBOR-NTA IN IHU-IYASE CLAN OF AGBOR KINGDOM. You can also call then "igure". Meanwhile, Dein of Agbor is not as powerful as other kings metioned. Agbor is my town and your information about Agbor is all lies. The Hierachy of rulership in Agbor kingdom are as follows:- 1. Dein of Agbor (king) 2. Olihe (Jim ovia family the ownwer of Zenith Bank) 3. Iyase (the cheif of Ihu-iyase) 4. Ozomor (the cheif of Ihu Ozomor) 5. Ubo (cheif of Ekuku Agbor) 6. Owee And many others..........YEYE op. DOES ANY OF THE NAMES MENTIONED ABOVE LOOK LIKE IGBO? you people should get fact before writing to avoid confusing or deceiving people with your Igbo mentality of claiming towns and cities. 2 Likes |

ogbonti: Quite true. In the olden days, there were no kings in Igbo land. Villages were autonomous and were run by a council of elders or "Ichies" who made decisions. Even this council had no leader. It was the British that appointed the first warrant Chiefs in Igbo land That culture of having no leaders or kings in Igbo land still lives with Igbos till today and it's one of the reasons Igbos find it hard to conform to authority. |
