till today I still wonder how people will allow names like rumuokoro etc to stand as in what does that mean do they (igbo speaking rivers) have anything or any meaning to the word rumu? I wonder why they insisted on answering that rubbish when they know the truth 3 Likes |

FFK turned to an adviser now he is no longer in government. When he was dining and feasting with powers that be, why didn't he make such recommendations? No be only rapist, the said Harcourt was also a big brother Naija applicant. 1 Like |

CeoMYN:my colleague too from Edo state is bearing amarachi ifeanyi while the other one from Agbor is bearing Chinedu. Cos they bear those names doesn't make them igbo, or why Yorubas don't claim Rivers state too they cos Amaechi is bearing Rotimi has his first name? These minorities have their own tribe, culture and identity. Igbos should stop this ethnic cleansing of minorities. Ikwerre is Ikwerre, Aniomas is Anioma and igbo is igbo Cc gidgiddy 21 Likes 1 Share |

EmptyCoconutHead: I think you are the ones deceiving yourself. Go and ask a typical South South man, he will repeat what Gidgiddy said. I remember one Ijaw man who used to analyze politics on Radio Continental then, somebody Charles. He would always say that Ikwerre people live in denial when they claim not be Igbos. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, the most successful politicain from South South, claims to be more Igbo than Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe from Abia State You guys had better check yourselves before you wreck yourselves 14 Likes |

otokx: Yes some Ijaws are in Rivers but have no ownership of Port Harcourt. Just as Delta Igbos own Asaba, and Itsekiri and Urhobo own Warri. Igbo/Ikwerre own Port Harcourt; as the Igbo name "Igwuocha" reflects that. 5 Likes 1 Share |
