rexbuton: Nope not that oil rivers own ther was proposed talks of one coastal state then in 2008. It consists of the riverine communities of Ondo edo and Delta I think The Edo map looks funny though I thought they had direct access to the sea until recently when I studied the map, that was when I realised that our community was the obstruction |

Tribalism has eaten deep into your fibres,causing you to exhibit victim mentality. STATES (INCLUDING EAST CENTRAL STATES AND RIVERS ) WERE FIRST CREATED IN 1967. The Gowon or any other regime have no control in determining which State should be oil producing State or not as[b] the presence of oil in any place is NOT FIXED and can be discovered in different places depending on the sophistication of the technology adopted. Indeed in the next few decades from now, with improved technology almost all countries will be able to produce oil but in varying quantities. pazienza: 1 Like |

That's the depth of their arrogance. Only God can claim some people can't survive without him, every other person/people is dispensable. matrixme: |

Ethnicity is largely a matter of self identity rather than something defined by external factors such as a decree by the federal government as you are trying to suggest here. There are peoples from non Igbo ancestries in Ebonyi State who now self identify as Igbos just as many Igalas in Anambra now regard themselves as igbos. Similarly some Apoi/Arugbo Ijaws in Ondo States now called themselves Yorubas e.g Sowore, the Publisher of Sahara reporters. pazienza: |

oyatz: External forces influence ethnicity. Following the fall of Qing empire, many Manchurians resident in non Manchu territories of China started denying their Manchurian ancestry and origin, because of the prevailing anti Qing sentiment in China of those days by the Hans and the rest of China. Centuries down the line, many Manchurians who denied being of Manchurian origin are currently 're affirming their Manchurian origin because the anti Manchurian sentiments in China had waned and is almost non perceptible today. only few villages in Ebonyi are non Igbo speaking, but by the virtue of being put in SE, they had realized its impossible to run away from Nigerian igbophobia as their towns had suffered destruction and neglect like those of Igbos around them. Misery can unite people. The same is applicable to Igala communities in Anambra North. If communities like Ogba, and the rest were put in SE and forced to partake in the Igbophobia that Igbos were subjected to in post civil war, their wouldn't be Igbo denial there today. Ndoki is Igbo speaking, and have a LGA in Rivers state, but because the bulk of Ndoki people are in Abia state and partake in Igbophobia of Nigeria, the rest of Ndoki in Rivers had been forced to retain their Igbo tag as a form of solidarity to their brothers in Abia. If the entire Ndokiland were in Rivers state, and they were given the chance of floating an independent ethnic group by FG like Ogba, Ikwerre, Etche were given, Ndoki would have become an independent ethnic group today. Even as we speak, there are few Ndoki elements that want this, but with bulk of Ndoki stuck in Abia state, it became imposible. So yes, Ethnic identity is influenced by external factors and the Igbo denial in oil producing Igbo speaking communities outside SE was influenced by Nigerian government post civil war anti Igbo antics and State creations, and subtle encouragement of centrifugal forces there by FG, while the centripetal ones where subdued. 2 Likes |
