HopeAtHand:i used blue to shade rivers port. Look at that water and tell me the dufference between it and the river that flows into abia state...shaded with green Plus...the only reason the british built a port in ikwerre land and not in ijaw land is because they thought ikwerre land was part of igboland and they had a poliy of allowing majority tribes to control political and economic power. Of course we know ikwerre started being non-igbo after the war 3 Likes 2 Shares

Bede2u: The Ijaws love the way we do not have control of the sea. If we gain access, we become too powerful to control. Will they love to release the land to the igbos, I seriously doubt the possibility. What is our best shot? Can we lure the less aggressive Efiks, annangs and oron (Akwa ibom) to a round table and discuss business with them. They get to control the oil/gas and sea access and all other assets they might have. We can even tell them that they will be given a Lagos status. We can also rouse their emotions by using the last Biafran president, Phillip effiong to show that they can still rule the entity Biafra. If they are smart, they will know that they are actually solving a real problem for 40million people who are heavily business conscious and they will never be poor with such realities. Why am I running away from Ikwerre enclaves? Ijaws are nursing leadership of the Niger delta in their hearts and it will be very difficult for them to start losing territory that will make dem smaller. They will not agree with us. Opobo as we all know answer to ijaws in the state, so we cannot agree any terms with opobo without first getting the ijaws in line. We can agree with the federal government to cede Rivers for Akwa ibom state. Since no real investment from the federal government in the state unlike Rivers, they will fight less. 5 Likes |

There is another thing Igbos on this forum keep underestimating which is CARGO AIRPORT. Just imagine 5 massive cargo Airports in the east with with each having 15 to 20 jumbo jets for import and export of goods. 3 Likes 1 Share |

It would seriously be unfortunate if igbos would even THINK of helping ikwerre people talk more of actually helping them when the crisis start between them and ijaws, I just hope ipob stop fooling gullible igbos. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Abagworo: Leave this treachery alone. Eleme is Ogoni. What is happening In Rivers state is not complex or peculiar. When distinct linguistic groups Co inhabit as neighbors, cross migration do occur as well as inter breeding via marriage. You see this between Northern Ebonyi people and Idomas, Northern Anambra and Igalas, etc. No ethnic group is truly pure, there is always admixtures from neighboring groups. There is nothing distinct about Eleme other than politics of greed. Eleme is Ogoni. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Musical intermission! ![]() Can anyone argue with the fact that the most enduring songs ever to come out of Igboland were recorded in the period preceding and after the civil war? I think it has something to do with the pains and emotional scars of the upheavals and civil war of the time being channelled into music! Same thing could be said about the American black civil rights period of the 60s, as the most enduring and evergreen music was made by blacks mainly during this period; think of Otis Redding and Sam Cooke. The spotlight in this post is on Harcourt Whyte....an Ijaw man that sang some of the best (if not the best) Igbo gospel songs ever! Another one is Sir Warrior and his Oriental Brothers. Harcourt Whyte: Nna Chebe Nwa Gi. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1P6hkZBbcvg Harcourt Whyte: Atula Egwu https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNgIA1irTO8 Sir Warrior & His Oriental Brothers: Ugo Chi Nyerem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAhyBNIh1i8 Feel free to add yours...those songs that remind you of your parents or magically transport you to the late 60s and 70s when you listen to them. 2 Likes |
