Is actor Rmd itsekiri?

Datazone:

Yes. There's oritsefemi and Omawumi. Thanks

Datazone:


It is crystal clear that you don't live in Sapele. Your orodje made a declaration that no other ethnic group should carry out their festival yet Itsekiris did that and nothing happened. And don't bring up that senatorial district, that's politics. The isokos in delta south are practically useless there and an Itsekiri was your governor for eight good years. Dumb ass

Iamgrey5:
Also Florence Omagbemi who was the first female coach to win a major championship in Nigeria.

Mystiquefia:


Omo-agege being a mace thief or whatever is not anybody's business. The circumstances at the time warranted his actions and his bravery yielded propulsive results and today though being a miniority representative in the red chambers trumped even the former deputy president of the senate to become the senate president. today he is the number two senator in a house of over 109 Senators hausa, igbo and yoruba senators inclusive. That is a landmark achievement no itsekiri man will be able to achieve till thy kingdom come. HECK, non of your sons have even been elected to red chambers before, how long will it take u lots to clinch a DSP position?
We dont even know wat reno omokri studied in school, but aside being a politician & a minister keyamo is a SAN & an astute lawyer. ben okumagba was appointed MD to NDDC 2

Datazone:

Oversight maybe.

Get hold of yourself. Do not start what you cannot finish. Do not embarrass yourself or your tribe here

Iriruaga100:



Where in Ugbomoya in Jesse do you have Itsekiri?? Jesse town as a whole don't have one Itsekiri village.. This is my town.. You're distorting history. Its a big shame we no long teach history in our schools

darfay:



Is like you are truly a mad woman

Iamgrey5:
Mr man please get off my mention.

I am proud to be Yoruba but I was helping her to get information because she seemed overwhelmed

I thought you once claimed to be Ishekiri before? why are you agree that I am supporting another Ishekiri with facts to back her claims that Ishekiris are doing well for themselves?

Why is my mentions tearing you up inside

Philistine:

Ok...start embarrassing your tribe. Dumbest tribe in the universe.

nowpresence:

just like her fellow ishekiri, they are all full of lies

always claiming lands that don't belong to them. I don't even know why they still occupy those communities in Uvwie and Sapele. Urhobo needs to come together and drive this people away.
ungrateful people

Datazone:

Actually it is only Keyamo and Agege in politics and anything federal for Urhobos (largest tribe in delta with communities in Bayelsa). I don't consider a senator (like the one from delta central) here because it is more or less a given. Any tribe with a senatorial district must be there. For Itsekiri, in terms of politics, I do not know. But in terms of federal level, they have Professor Itse Esanjumi Sagay (appointed by Buhari as the chairman
for presidential advisory committee) and Amaju Pinnick, president of Nigerian Football Federation. Note, Itsekiri is the smallest tribe in Delta. Now, ask yourself, which one do you think has achieved in past and present Nigeria? Note that one of the Urhobo(agege) stole a mace to get there.

Note: prof sagay studied in cambridge. He was the first Nigerian to graduate with a 2.1 in a Nigerian institution. He is the only qualified and first dean of law in uniben back then.


Itsekiris have made great stride for small their population. They had the first finance minister, first communication minister, there was Pa alfred rewane. Let that sink into your garri drinking head.

Iriruaga100:


Ma, they don't occupy any community in urhobo..

Mystiquefia:


The same itsekiri governor who was the annointed candidate of ibori you mean? he was rigged into power by ibori and in a free and fair election, he cant even stand up to ogboru in terms of grass root mobilization, even as a sitting governor he couldn't secure PDP senatorial ticket for delta south and you call that one a politician? everyone knows that uduaghan is a paper weight politician in delta state politics, without political clout na. He Has always asslicked ibori and will always do.

u claim itsekiris have 3 lga's, ijaws also have 3 lga's so why has the ijaws been incharge since 1999?

Iamgrey5:
Your tribe is not fit enough to clean the shoes of the Yorubas in this life time

Oponu afofun gbemu

Isoko boy of ordinary two local government area is not bigger than smallest local government area in ibadan.

Datazone:

Urhobo man didn't make him the governor. It was turn for another tribe to take the seat. Uduaghan just happened to be his cousin from his maternal side. Naturally, he gave it to family.

Datazone:


What is the name of community the Olu Palace is located and why is the name of the community not an Urhobo word if you said Okumagba (which is an Itsekiri word) gave him the land

The best saxophonist tee Mac itseli is itsekiri

Rigging is a common thing in delta as instituted by corrupt ibori.ugborodo has about 32,000 voters..

You'd never see Reno here, it's only when he wants to trend and using the Igbos to do that he comes around.

prof sagay studied in cambridge. He was the first Nigerian to graduate with a 2.1 in a Nigerian institution. He is the only qualified and first dean of law in uniben back then. OK, EVEN FIRST 2.1 JOIN AS AN ACHIEVEMENT. YOU MUST BE ONE OF THE PEOPLE THAT CELEBRANT MEDIOCRITY. SO MANY NIGERIAN AFTER HIM HAVE STUDIED ALSO IN CAMBRIDGE. SO? BACK THEN WHEN THERE WAS SCARCITY BUT REVERSE IS THE CASE NOW. HOW ISHEKIRIS ARE DEAN IN UNIBEN. your past should be all you have. if that is it, then we shouldn't be having this conversation in the first as you have proven me right so many times that all you have is just MOUTH AND PAPER.


Itsekiris have made great stride for small their population. WITH INFLUENCE AND I CAN'T EVEN SEE THE STRIDES YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT


Let that sink into your garri drinking head. I AM 100% SURE YOU AND YOUR LINAEGAE HAVE NEVER TASTED GARRI. talking NONSENSE.

Datazone:

Yes she's the first to win the African games as a player and a coach. Amaju was the first CAF vice president. No small tribe in Nigeria has achieved like Itsekiris. That's a fact

darfay:



You Afonja Muslims should stay of this. Stop inciting violence, u aren't even a stakeholder. If violence start it's always finds a way to be everybody against itsekiri and lives on both sides
You there not utter all this rubbish in warri, afonja Muslims stop inciting violence
Y'all have sold all your lands in Lagos to outsiders and now the trend has gotten to ogun state, ota and mowe axis are seriously been bought up by outsiders especially igbos but you concern is warri? Is ok

Datazone:

but na fact I talk na, bros. Abi I dey lie? Isokos need to team up with Itsekiris so they can get up there. But they don't know how to play politics. Itsekiris are small but know how to lobby and seek relevance. Most of these young chaps don't learn at all

Philistine:

U have started... I know you will fall into the trap. This thread has nothing to do with Yorubas, but you will soon turn it to a Yoruba supremacy thread, very typical of a dumb tribe. FYI, I am a Yoruba, but you Nairaland Yoruba dim wits are embarrassing us.

And i read somewhere were you said itsekiris dont operate a decentralized monarchy system and that's why you've not been able to install a king in sapele and uvwie. i just dey look you dey laugh, because the wahala wey u dey find if e reach your hand, u nor go fit wedge am. The 117 communities in okpe kingdom answer directly to the Orodje of Okpe, Rtd Major General Mujakperuo, the Orhue 1 of okpe kingdom. The itsekiri dominated communities answer directly to the orodje of okpe today not the olu of warri. I can still Remember when the orodje of okpe made a proclamation that all except the four indegenous family of sapele should be buried in their indegenous villages, barring the itsekiris from burying their dead in sapele before the determination the court case which declare OKPE true owners of sapele. And your itsekiri people are surrounded by 117 okpe communities pls, Una nor go fit do jack, if the orodje of okpe give directives, your houses will be razed down 2 seconds
