But if you truly pity Deapreye like you're saying it , you wouldn't be using Barca to make a mockery and say things about the Ijaws where Dearpreye comes from - You see ! This isn't love but the same agenda like you guys have over the Niger Delta .
I still maintained that it has always been the wish of any major group to lord over minorities in the same entity called Nigeria . The man who created Nigeria is a demon.
Until we drop our differences and see as ourselves as one people pursuing a common cause we can never achieve any unity of purpose .

Truckpusher:
Bros calm down o , we are well aware of the folks that created this mischievous thread.
IPOB bounced back like a bad market , Nnamdi Kanu is seriously eating akidi and half done eba they are now forcing their Biafra on us even when our interests are not clearly defined .

Well , I pray on the ijaws and Itshekiris not to listen to these agents of separation ?else our region will bear the consequences and it's all our loss - We need a generational way of thinking that will destabilize our disunity else we are all still in chains.

TonyeBarcanista:

The term "state" as we have in Nigeria is nothing but a political arrangement. The ijaws were lumped with other groups across different states. If you don't understand the reason behind Oil Rivers and Toru Ibe states agitation. Even the present day Delta state was an arrangement of IBB, the people in Warri agitated for Warri state, while the other grÓups made ANIOMA state agitation. I won't go deep! Ijawlands irrespective how balkanised they are remain Ijawland and was never subjects to Olu of Itsekiri!



For the record, the Itsekiri monarch has always been Olu of Itsekiri until Awolowo changed it to Olu of Warri in the 50s. His loyalists are only his itsekiri people.


Goodnyt!

Continue denying that your militant tribe. I don't blame you, if i was born one of y'all, I'll deny it too.

After that same nkita eat that your coward ball and swallow you raw.

Bros I am a true Iwere son from Ugborodo and Bateren. I'm Itsekiri, arrogant and damn proud of it. I was born and raised in Warri. I lived through and lost loved ones in the crisis.
I chose the name and decided to create this thread because of momentsoftruths thread.
How about you actually address the message. How about the Ijaws start doing right by their fellow Niger Deltans...How about you go on Gbaramatu's Voice Facebook page and see what they are saying...Your message of peace should start with your people who never stops beating drums of war like they have monopoly on violence.

I am not claiming the entire Warri Division and wouldn't, I am bringing evidences from pre British colonial times. Also note that there was an eighty eight years interregnum (1848 – 1936) and there was no King during this period, and there are pre British colonial text that calls him "King of Warri" so it was after the interregnum that the whole Olu of Itsekiri brouhaha started. Please kindly show me any pre colonial text when there was any fuss made about the Kingship.

Again according to the article you quoted;
The presence of Ijaw and Urhobo in Warri Division has been clearly described as that of settlers. Professor Lloyd states as follows

"The Itsekiri live in the westernmost part of the Niger Delta, bounded by the Bight of Benin on the West and ….. The Administrative Unit know as the Warri Division of the Delta Province, … includes groups of Ijaw settlements in the extreme North and South and of Urhobo settlements in the Southeast; the latter, however, are subordinate to the Itsekiri rulers. Neighbors of the Itsekiri are …."

In these settlements, which includes Okerenghigho, the Ijaws are settlers fact. Also we are not going by the British, we are going by pre British colonial text, of Portuguese traders, Priests and Kings.

He must be feeling really silly not to have noticed the bolded and then strike it out of the text. This is a case of shooting oneself in the foot

Hahaha, that honestly got me rolling. I read that text about ten times to be sure I am not misunderstanding what was clearly stated...

It is simple. Ijaws has been on the fore front of the struggle while the rest of you sits on the fence.

Does the name Isaac Boro ring a bell??

This op created this account just for the purpose of making this post.
You can see from his profile that his account was created on the 31st of January 2016

At what time did he create this post?

5:51pm On Jan 31st

It is interesting that he felt the need to create a new moniker for what the intended to do today.
It is will be interesting to know what his original username/moniker is.

From the moniker he chose for this post, it is not difficult to tell where he comes from. Which group of Nigerians
in an attempt to mock us have online recently switched from calling Ijaws the derogatory mba miri to calling us
"we niger delta"?

Ijaws keep good and ancient records. It is something some westerners and south-southerners have in common - early interaction with the white man because of our position at the costs which lead to early development of reading, writing and record-keeping
Anyway, see a screenshot of his profile picture below.

As usual an Ijaw man will never say the truth about what is happening in Niger Delta...
Who got lion share of amnesty?
What happened in EPZ Ogidigben matter?
What about pipeline security matter?
Is it true or false that the Maritime University, was shadily relocated from Koko (itsekiri land) to Okereneghigho Omadino's land that the Ijaws are claiming...
Please answer these questions without referring to IPOB or some people not from the Niger Delta...
We need to iron these issues out as brothers or we will continue to live in a state of distrust, just waiting for anything to ignite the flames of war again...

MyGeneration:
Its just funny how ijaws repay back people who accommodated them by spitting on there face.
IJAWS are known to be fishermen who dont have land but live in boat house's and migrate occasionally, someone who accommodated u to fish in there coast 50years later there children start fighting with the owners of the land even wanting to expand into more...

coolscott:

Nonesense! No wonder you keep on finding yourselves on you backs after every encounter with the northerner. Your logic is corrupted. Ijaws bought you from other slave traders and sold you to the white man! Did they house you in Boats?
No wonder you remain the most backward in Nigeria politically. You have something that has programmed you to earnestly strive to diminish your political equity with your own hands.

So you are the ones that gave us lands, you who could not govern yourselves and organise yourselves so much so that the white man had to create paramount chiefs for you. You say you accomodated us, who have centuries-old dynasties of kings to whom the white man paid taxes when he landed and needed to buy slaves (almost all of whom were Igbos) and to buy palm oil.

Delusion.

MyGeneration:

Are u trying to be me mr militant.
U sold us when we were not united but the moment we became united we started selling ur black land grabbing ugly asses. You people are naturally thieves and land Grabber's that was why despite the fact that u ppl came in contact with the white men first the white man didn't deem u fit to hand over anything to, they preferred the igbos and calabar people.

coolscott:

[size=13pt]So who did you sell us to?

[s]Which owners? If you guys don't know your boundary you should go to International Court of Justice. The fact remains that Ijaws won't let go an inch of her ancestral land. Instead, we shall gain more.


Abeg, I no get time for this talk! We are not bothered[/s]

Goodboiyy:


I see no difference b/w Igbo , hausa and Yoruba, Same set of greedy humans, Each trying to gain cheap point to lord over minorities.. Am highly disappointed in Tonyebarcanista and WenigerDelta, Una fall my hand, Washing your dirty linen in public.. As 4 D Olu of warri issue i and my brother's av settled this issue long tym ago, Y Re you guys bringing up the issue now?

Neither re the Ijaws nor itsekiri land grabbers, the issue we lack is understanding..


I will create a thread this week, so we can trash this Issue once and for all

WeNigerDelta:


Broda I use God beg you bone that yarns here...Since when we were washing our linens indoors did the Ijaws do the right thing and give back Omadinos's land...Or bros Okerenghigho na Okerenkoko?
Can you even imagine a fellow Ijaw from the Bayelsa axis coolscott, is saying he doesn't know about this. All this came as a result of keeping quiet for way too long...Bros I also lie for EPZ matter?
How about you take your thread you wanna start to Gbaramatu's Voice Facebook page and tell them to stop beating drums of war. The issue of Olu of Warri was brought forward again by the Ijaws to again undermine the historical fact that Okereghigho is not Okerenkoko. Do endeavor to tell the Ijaws in your thread that Chief Ayirimi Emami and the Itsekiri people have nothing to do with the NIMASA fraud...
Also I have no love lost for any of the big tribes, I'm not disillusioned to know that it's all about their interest first. That won't also stop me from making deals or align with those I feel we share a similar interest...I will always pick the best deal for the itsekiri nation. and form alliances in that respect...
Okerenghigho belongs to Omadino
