lonelydora:
OP, olease don't start another warri war.

That's not my intention.
I only want Nigerians to know about Warri and its history. I know ethnic sentiments cannot be avoided but it's high times we face our demons. For those that will derail this thread with unusual sentiments, please remember that this thread is to teach others. Don't teach others that you are bad but teach them the truth.

LOLLLL. ....LIE OF THE YEAR!!

Not a lie please. Chief Remi Fani-kayode was the lead counsel and the judgement was 8th of oct. 1976.

onuwaje:

I am from warri south and I can mention more than 15 communities in warri south that belongs to itsekiri

Bros name them... Do you know what they call communities... Hope nor be Street you dey confuse as community?

I suspect Warri is like Port Harcourt jointly owned by the numerous tribes but unlike Port Harcourt is less developed, the factions should come to some sort of understanding.

the name warri and intermarriage is what covers the three ethnics group..each have their boundaries. solution solve. warri does not mean anything to the itsekiri, like wise the ijaw which their pronounciation is wari, also to the urhobos

MAKE HE NAME THEM I DEY WAIT. MAKE I EVEN HELP AM. OKERE, EKUREDE ITSEKIRI, KPESU, AND MAYBE UBEJI ALSO UGBANGUE MAYBE IS WARRI SOUTH WEST

dennismukoro:
BIG YES IF U DONT KNW. ITSEKIRI ENTIRE PUPULATION NOT UP TO 500K

So you know that? Then why do the urhobos and Ijaws cry of marginalization.

It is clear that if the resources are shared equally btw the tribes, more Itsekiris will benefit. So why the cry of being marginalized ??

If not for wisdom in the leadership of the Itsekiris those other tribes would've silenced the Itsekiris.

You even try to add ubeji for the list self...

Op thank you. Well, I'm Ijaw frm Rivers State, this issue of Warri affects me so much because I have my brothers and sisters there. Well, I wouldn't want to go into any argument but I have to correct one impression. According to we the Ijaws, the word Warri originated from the Ijaw word "Wari" which means house. The Iwere stuff of the Itsekiri is unacceptable to us, and that is it.
The Itsekiris are more educated and the British favored them, the Oil Companies also favored them against the Ijaws. What is keeping the Ijaws today is Almighty God and our zeal to defend ourselves against every odd. The issue of Warri is a very special one, and I believe a roundtable discussion should be convoked to solve every grey area once and for all. However, the Ijaws will not seek to take what is not theirs and will not lose an inch of what belongs to them. God bless us all

You are Ijaw? Like seriously? So how come u hate GEJ with passion?

This is why I like the Ijaw people.

Anyway, I thank God you are helping me fulfil the reason for this thread. How can this issue end? Because no matter how peaceful things seem to be, this issue will eventually come up later on until it is thrashed once and for all. Let us all suggest how things can be solved peacefully instead of reliving on what has happened. . Thanks.

WHEN DID U HEAR DEM CRY. WHO IS SHOUTING OF MARGINALISATION IF NOT THE ITSEKIRIS

Frankmishael:
how one man go get big city warri , how much he worth

ask him

litetias:

Urhobo has more than 100 times the population of Itshekiri. Fact

From your assertion, the population of the itsekiris will be around 10 - 90 thousand. Lets assume the urhobos are up to 9million.

O boy I tire 4 ur lie O

Rapmoney:
Op, nor let Area!!! Catch u o!
On a serious note, you very WRONG that Warri is a 'no man's land'!!! Warri, historically, belong to the Itsekiris. Where do you think names like Giwa-Amu, Giniwa, Pesu and the likes came from? The Itsekiris lost a greater part of their lands due to inter-ethnic conflicts with the Ijaws and Urhobos. When I was in secondary school, we took 'Itsekiri' as our local language!!! Today, you won't find that! And am talking of Warri-South Local Government Area which the Urhobos are claiming ownership of. This led to to many tribal wars in 1992, 1993, 1996, 1999 and 2000. Any one who witnessed the crises will definitely know what I mean.

yes, is true I witnessed that too, when the urhobos and iteskiri got into a serious battle on who owns warri. There is one ceremony d itsekiri always celebrating then dancing moving around warri then celebrating d coronation of olu of warri. so there is particular year like that d itsekiris came to celebrate as usual, then yawa come gas betweend.itsekiris and the urhobos on who owns warri

SO YOU ARE AN IJAW GUY? AND YOU KNOW THAT ALOT OF INJUSTICE HAVE BEEN MELTED ON YOU GUYS STILL YOU ARE CONNIVING WITH YOUR ENEMIES TO DENIE YOUR BROTHER AN IJAW PERSON IS RIGHTFUL OR LEGITIMATE MANDATE! mind you am an yoruba person by right of father while my mother is from warri. My main reason of supporting a niger delta person is have been living in the northern region for the past 19year, my decision of supporting is not base on sentiment but on what i know of the hausa. IF YOU ASK ME TO GIVE OR TRANSLATE WORD HAUSA INTO ENGLISH, I WILL SIMPLY SAY "GREEDINESS" yes greediness hausa sense of justice is GIVE 100 TO 10 FOR SHARE, HAUSA ALONE WILL WANT TO TAKE 9...

so you want him to support a candidate because of tribal relation ?
