SlayerSupreme: I sincerely don't like the impression you and your cohorts are making of Ndigbo in general. If Ikwerres say they are not Igbo why should a true Igbo son or daughter resort to looking for ways to ridicule Ikwerre ethnic nationality? Why? Things do turn around you know. 12 years ago Ikwerres faced this level of ridicule by some fellow Rivers people but within the last 9 years Ikwerre has produced 3 Governors. We should learn to tolerate people's opinion if Ndigbo truly want peace and development. I being of Igbo and Ikwerre mix equally have my reservations to claims of Benin origin by some but it doesn't mean I will force my personal belief and knowledge down others who have opposing views. Enough is enough. Ndigbo should let Ikwerre ethnic nationality be. We have so much similarities but one cannot swallow the other by force. Ndewo 3 Likes |

Abagworo:Nobody is forcing anyone here, ikwere produced governors not because they worth it but because those people take themselves as Igbo. Like you said no one should swallow each other, they should respect anyone(ikwere) that takes himself as Igbo. Ikwere ethnic nationality should respect ikwere igbo clan. Or are there no more ikwere igbos? 4 Likes |

Abagworo: Stop talking trash! Who exactly is dragging Bini vagabonds and culture and Language thieves to be Igbo. By listing those achievements, we hope to show the Ikwerres the more reason why they are not Igbo, as they don't display the spirit of excellence the Igbos are Known for. The Anioma can go toe to toe with every part of Igboland, they have answers to any feat the SE could claim to have achieved,heck, they outmaneuvered the minorities of mid west and claimed the capital of New delta state to themselves, they recently on their own, negotiated their way into Delta state governorship position, despite not being outright majority there something Ikwerre couldn't achieve in the old Rivers state, but were instead crying like little babies before Zik and Ukiwe. So you see, when some misguided Anioma people start their Igbo denial I can stomach it. But for underachieving Ikwerres to talk trash about Ndiigbo? Mbanu! I can't stomach it. You talked about Ikwerres producing governors of Rivers state in quick succession, you forgot that it was Ndiigbo that made that possible by engineering the creation of Bayelsa and the emasculation of Ijaws by rendering them minority in Rivers by moving the bulk of them to Bayelsa. You forgot how the shameless leaders of these Bini vagabonds hid behind our Igbo language and culture they corrupted to reach to Zik and Ebuite Ukiwe for help in emasculating their Ijaw neighbors that had reduced them to second class citizens in Rivers state, the same Ijaws they joined to ridicule Ndiigbo after we lost the war. These ungrateful Bini caste aways owe everything they have( their language and culture which are Igbo language and culture they corrupted to produce impurity they now call Ikwerre language and culture, their recent dominance of Rivers state politics, PH city) to Ndiigbo goodwill. But how do they pay us back? They pay us back with hatred, silly unfounded accusations of desire to steal their resources, more hatred, more bile and more bile. Children of anger! 5 Likes |

[b] By Ochereome Nnanna ALTHOUGH there were varied positions on the matter, in the end the General Sani Abacha administration created Bayelsa out of Rivers State in 1996” The circumstances behind my joining a delegation for the burial of His Royal Majesty, Sunday Nnanta Woluchem, the Epara Rebisi XI of Port Harcourt on Saturday, April 21, 2012 is encapsulated in the above quote taken from his burial programme. As the author of his yet to be published biography, former Chief of General Staff, retired Commodore Okoh Ebitu Ukiwe, asked me to join his delegation to bury a royal father who, along with Ukiwe and others, played leading roles in the creation of today’s Rivers and Bayelsa states between 1993 and 1996. When the civil war started in 1967 and Biafra lost control of Port Harcourt to the Federal forces, the newly created Rivers State was handed over to the Ijaw. Ijaw leaders continued to maintain that Rivers State, with Port Harcourt as its capital, was created for them as reward for ceding their coastal terrain to the Federal side, thus making the sea blockade of Biafra possible. The Ijaw groups claimed to constitute the majority and continued to dominate the state both during military and civilian dispensations. With time, however, the Igbo speaking people of the state, particularly the Ikwerre nationality, decided they wanted a state of their own where they would be able to assert their own political and economic interests. This was what led to the quest for the creation of Port Harcourt State. However, the Ijaws felt if such a state was created they would become estranged in a city they have been part and parcel of since it was founded by the colonialists. In fact, they had even started portraying Port Harcourt as the capital of a future Ijaw state. Thus was born a great rivalry between the Ijaw-speaking and Igbo- speaking groups for the control of Rivers and between what was termed the “Okrika-Ijaw” and “Ikwerre-Igbo” over the “ownership” of Port Harcourt. The gruesome murder of Dr Obi Wali, the leader of the Ikwerre political front by yet- to-be ascertained assassins in 1992, owed to this tussle, which often led to street battles between Okrikans and Ikwerres.

[b] Meanwhile, the late father of Nigeria’s nationalism, Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe, had discussed the best strategies for reducing the animosity between the Igbos and their Minority neighbours as well as dousing the ethnic tension between Ikwerres and their riverine co-indigenes of Rivers State. It was agreed that as the touted largest Minority group, the Ijaw needed a state of their own. But with their emotional attachment to Port Harcourt, how would Rivers State be split without creating a permanent ethnic war front in Nigeria’s premier oil city? With the Ijaw groups obviously being favoured by the Northern-led Federal Government, Eze Woluchem, a lawyer who was installed paramount ruler of Port Harcourt in 1977 turned to Dr Azikiwe, appealing for him to support the aspirations of his Igbo kinsmen in the struggle. An ageing “Zik” referred the Eze’s delegation to Commodore Ukiwe, who had become Zik’s close political confidant. The Eze’s delegation of four, which included the late Chief Okogbule Wonodi and Chief Andrew Uchendu, met with Ukiwe in his office in Victoria Island. Their proposal was that Port Harcourt State should only be for Igbo-speaking Rivers people, while the Ijaw-speaking part would be named New Rivers State. On the other hand, the Kalabaris did not want to be parted with Rivers State, neither did the Okrikas, and Ukiwe advised that it would be “unstrategic” to cut out Bonny, Opobo, Kalabari and Okrika, apart from the fact that the Head of State, General Abacha, who was pro-Ijaw, might be pushed not to create any new state at all. Between Ukiwe and the Ikwerre delegation, and taking into account the expressed needs of others, the maps of the present Rivers State and Bayelsa State were drawn and presented to Abacha, who found it acceptable.

[b] On October 1, 1996, General Abacha included Bayelsa as one of the six new states approved by the Provisional Ruling Council, PRC. The postulations put together by Ukiwe and the Rebisi’s delegates worked like magic. Today the Ijaws have a state of their own with a capital (Yenagoa) which is being styled the “Jerusalem of the Ijaw Nation”. The Igbo-speaking groups in Rivers State also have a state in which they constitute a comfortable majority and have led since 1999. The issue of “ownership” of Port Harcourt has also been (partially) resolved, as Governor Chibuike Amaechi has retrieved the Crown Lands being claimed by the Ikwerres and Okrikans into government custody. In fact, he has pressed on with the establishment of New Port Harcourt in virgin land within Ikwerre heartland. The ethnic tension is still there somewhat, but it is no longer at the level of street battles and assassinations. Indeed, there were “varied positions on the matter”, but all is well that ends well. Rebisi Woluchem has returned to his Creator satisfied that he played a central role in giving his people the ground on which to stand and, along with other stakeholders within the Rivers state, chart a future devoid of rancour but full of promise for fast-tracked development for its many dwellers, both indigenes and non-indigenes. Let me note a sour irony of it all. A supposed beneficiary of Eze Woluchem’s struggles, Governor Chibuike Amaechi, was nowhere to be found during the funeral! He was reported to have travelled to the US during the burial. Funny, the Governor was also absent when the king’s wife died a few months before he followed her. I gathered that the Governor and the king had not managed to patch up their differences, as Eze Woluchem was solidly behind former Governor Peter Odili when he and Amaechi fought. As soon as he secured his second term of office, Amaechi voluntarily made up with his estranged godfather, Odili. Useful lesson: Be careful how you follow a politician into an enmity. You won’t know when they will make up and leave you in the lurch! [/b] www.vanguardngr.com/2012/04/rebisi-in-history/ 1 Like |

Abagworo, you should be ashamed of your Bini brothers that now go by the Igbo name Ikwerre. Whatever it is Ikwerre thinks they have today in Rivers state, Ndiigbo made it happen, and they were only able to reach to us, because they are culture and language thieves that had stolen our culture and language and , it was this same kinship that you shamelessly deny today that your shameless leaders used to come begging shamelessly when Shi.t hit fan. But with the way your people are going they are using up whatever attachment Ndiigbo might have to them fast and furious, and a day is coming when you will need that Igbo help again, but what you will get is the hatred you had been planting and growing these past years, you will get it in ten folds. Your so called current dominance of Rivers state politics was made possible by Ndiigbo. We will never stop reminding you that fact. 3 Likes |

Ikwerre on the hand are shameless vagabonds with no identity other than the one Ndiigbo gave to them. Ikwerre has no language of their own, other than Igbo language they corrupted with their bad disgusting intonations and now tagged it Ikwerre language. They have no culture other than the Igbo culture they stole and corrupted. Not one single Bini word culture or names survived amongst the Bini vagabonds that now metamorphosed into modern Ikwerre, such is the level of shamelessness of the people , despite the fact that at no point were they conquered by Ndiigbo. 3 Likes |

Bigmillz: Don't forget to start by going back to Bini to employ Bini language teachers and start picking up the Bini language of your vagabond ancestors, you can as well drop the Corrupted Igbo names you currently answer and start using proper Bini names of your Bini ancestors. No better way to send a clear message to Ndiigbo than by dropping all the Igbo language, culture and names you stole! Heck even Ikwerre and Iwhuruohna are all Igbo names. You lots have a whole lot to do to prove your Igbo hatred. As long as you continue using Igbo names, language and culture in the corrupted form you Call Ikwerre language, you will always remain a shameless people. By the way, we wish you good luck in your Niger Delta republic romance. Lol! A group of people that couldn't hold their own against Ijaws in old Rivers state now seek to swim in the sea of formidable groups like Uhrobo, Isoko, Edo and their likes. In an Ijaw dominated Niger Delta republic, we will see what will become of your claim to ownership of PHLGA. Lol. 3 Likes |
