But last election showed otherwise that anioma at least has voting strength...and enough one ooo

Though if it comes to urhobo, Ijaw, and Isoko teaming up. What you guys failed to understand is that it will be quite hard.

Urhobo and Itsekiri teaming up is possible because of how they believe Delta belongs to them but with Ijaws is will be quite hard and hard.

After how many years, it was last year that anioma produced vice chancellor in Delsu.

Okowa should subtly fix and ground anioma in delta politics before leaving office. He can do that.

This is why I believe
Anioma people need their own state. I still believe that it should be the next state to join the south east but some people think it’s a bad idea because of the on going identity crisis.

I personally believe that if Aniomas get their own state, then they can have a safe space that will enable them progress Faster and a conducive environment to solve the identity issues.

I didn't want to talk about anioma state here before some people here will think that I accepted Igbo because of anioma state but the truth is that anioma state will solve 95% of the problem.

This is just the plain truth.

I know some emotions are flying around here. But if Aniomas get their own state and have a better control of their politics and economy, the need to deny igbo or the incentive to deny igbo will be mostly killed off.

The only way Anioma can be liberated is if they're removed from Delta and added to the SE. Either as the 6th or 7th SE state.
The identity crisis many of us face in the SS is because we're isolated from the Igbo pride. Imagine speaking pidgin, instead of your Igbo dialect to others simply because you want to feel more south south like the average Ijaw, Ogoni, Urhobo etc. We are alienated from the Igbo identity in many ways, that it takes strong individual conviction to stand tall as Igbo. I for instance during my teenage age didn't really understood what it meant by being called Igbo, because I was informed that you can't be a Rivers man and still retain your Igbo identity. I was more Rivers man than even Igbo until my early 20's. You look around to the left and your neighbors are denying Igbo for political gains, and you ask wtf is going on.
The political loss of Ndigbo in national affairs seems to be dragging us backwards. Ndigbo must get it right politically and use their weight to liberate us out of this SS. The earlier Ndigbo insist that the SS Igbos are given states of theirs and added to the SE, the earlier the denial nonsense is defeated for good

BeachLife:
Inclusion is necessary for unity and progress,and avoidance of internal strife and sabotage.

The Igbo communities/dialects who deny being Igbo are doing so as defense mechanism . I see a lot of internal ethnic fights here about who is superior or inferior Igbo. If you say Ikwerre ,Anioma,or Ngwa are not real Igbo , what happens when someone from Ikwerre or Ngwa community ascends to position of power ? Do you think the individual would help or sabotage Igbo cause? I think the individual would sabotage and even deny being Igbo.
I observe this internal strife and sabotage in all Nigerian and African ethnic nations.

There seem to be two Obeagu in Enugu.
One is in Enugu South, a sister town to Amaechi Awkunanaw. And then this Obeagu in Awgu.

I have been to Obeagu in Awkunanaw, but not the Awgu one.

what is the meaning of SS igbos?
oga stop living in self delusion the language that Anioma tribe speak is far different from igbos, they may somehow sound a bit similar but they're entirely different.
the language of Igbos of the 5 states of SE is far different from that of Ikwerre, Ndoni, Etche and Anioma of Rivers state and Delta states respectively.
LLobiorah there's nothing to concur, u guys are deceiving yourself.
there is nothing like igbos in SS.
be informed.
