If they annoy Ijaws too much, we will not even be their good neighbours so that they can stay in their landlocked dot circle Republic, without us giving them access to the sea with charges that will favour them.

At this juncture am not sure there's any homogeneous Izon LGA anywhere in Nigeria. Ijaw will be so ripped apart when the time comes.
Ijaw are not indigenous to Nigeria or even Niger-Delta. They are exactly like the Fulani with nowhere really to call their own but claiming everywhere they set foot on.

Can't u see how stupid u are? Timpere sylva is from Nembe Brass
I'm from Kolokuma/ Opokuma

My name is Timipere Tari.
I just explained the meaning of the name to you.
Are you Igbos not ashamed to be foolish.
You are not getting our argument. Ijaw people are migrant settlers in these places and are not even indigenous to Nigeria. That a stupid looking Ijaw fisherman settled in Nembe to drink his ogogoro in peace does not make him indigene of Nembe. Real Nembe people do not understand Izon language. Ijaw people cannot claim other tribes because of their few migrant fisherman population.

War is not cultism oooo...
you need to remind yourself well on that, because i have seen ibos power at orlu recently, where out of 2000 well trained esn, 1000 were easily overran by aba kyari.....
this is not 1967 where ibos will hide under ibibio efik annang etc powers to prolong war.....
even ojukwu and kanu your most strongest men run away like women.......
only one whisper from tompolo is far powerful than kanu and the entire igbo......
one sound from avengers can destroyed the entired igbo.....

The originating shrines of those four market days still exist in the four core Umu NRI towns of Enugwu-ukwu, Nawfia, Enugwu-agidi and Agukwu-Nri. Umu NRI people are unrepentant Igbos.

Now, counting from 1 to 10 immediately reveals whether someone is Igbo or not.

An Ebonyi man can easily understand an Nnewi man counting the numbers in Igbo, and vice versa.
And an Ebonyiman uses the four market days owned by the Nris.
Conclusion: An Ebonyi person is an Igbo person
ebonyi man and anambra man can never in this life understand each other talk except learnin.....
even the hat some ebonyians put on is not thesame with the original iboe of anambra own....

Boat regattas are usually for ethnic groups that border the coast. It is not an Ijaw thing. Some Ijaws practise it because they are near the coast.
Nailed it.
If we are to go with Ijaw fairly tales then there are Ijaw in Kebbi state.

Only two dialects would be a challenge for some people in Anambra
The rest (90%) will be like drinking water.
You are talking about Ebonyi with Afikpo.
Anybody that grew in The major cities of Anambra will eat any Igbo dialect.

Our findings so far as research and investigation continues.


The Nembe people are descended from mostly Arochukwu. This is not wishful thinking it is very likely the truth. Let us look at some facts hitherto unknown to people.

1) Virtually everything of great traditional importance done in Nembe is done only after inquisition from Arochukwu!

2) The Nembe revere the python! Traditionally the python is most revered of all the cultural symbols. And this was on instructions from Arochukwu after the other symbols of worship failed them. Remember that in one British voyagers account of Bonny he narrated how the Brass people celebrated the "long juju" of Arochukwu.

3) The Nembe people use a traditional 4 days of the week.

4) Just like the Kalabari many Brass/Nembe refuse to accept they are Ijaws, both young and old. This has brought consternation between they and the Ijaw(Izon) expansionist.

5) Due to their Igbo heritage (likely Arochukwu) the leopard hat (okpu agu) is a permanent feature in Nembe!

6) Many are fluent Igbo speakers.

I love this I swear.

Stop displaying ignorance on worldwide Web.

Igbo, like many other major languages, is dialectical.

Ngwa dialect is different from Mbaise and owerri. All understands central Igbo called "Igbo Izugbe"

An ikwerre man speaks dialectical Igbo, different from Ukuani man.

Education is costly but ignorance is costlier.

Southern Ijaw LGA in Bayelsa state alone with 2680 km² is bigger than half of IMO of 5,300 km² IMO state 5,300 km² with Anambra 4,800km²
IMO and Anambra put together is 10,100 km² Bayelsa is 10,773 km².
Bayelsa state is bigger than 10 States in Nigeria, and it's bigger than Imo and Anambra state put together with 673 km²
The Nembe and Kalabari could understand each other perfectly.
Timipere sylva is from Brass.
Is that one Igbo name.
I'm from Kolokuma and my Ijaw name is Timipere too, just like sylva in Nembe Brass, which means stay because of me.
The Ijaw National Affairs Vice President 2 Alabo Nengi James is from Nembe.
Now I know why Even other South South people hate ibos.


I'm igbo from mbaise,timipre is a nembe Igbo name it means stay for me or be for me.

The area of research we are focusing on now is why the Izon and Nembe don't understand each other. We observed there are similarities but we also know despite these similarities they are distinct people. It would seem the Nembe are descended from Igbo and Izon mix of cultures mainly, with the Igbo being the bulk of the mix, as well as other cultures contributing too. Hence the distinction and drift from Izon, and resulting closeness to Igbo. But it is all hypothesis until proven with more information.

It may also mean that Igbo partly descended from Nembe with contributions from neighbouring ancient tribes like Ekpeye.

Minorities of SS are just lucky to have Igbos as neighbors. We have enough evidence to claim most of Rivers State, half of Delta and parts of Bayelsa and Edo states as our territories. However, we are business minded in nature which now makes small ethnic groups like ijaws to be encroaching on our lands.




This mindset is the major reason most of the Southern Minority tribes supported the FG against Biafra during the civil war and are presently vehemently opposed to inclusion of their peoples into IPOB drawn Biafran Map

It is the same reason why Rivers State was created in the first instance, the same reason why the Stadium in Port Harcourt was named LIBRATION Stadium and Gov Wike recently renamed it YAKUBU GOWON Stadium.

The only reason you feel you can talk is that you think Yoruba being second class citizens to the Hausa Fulani is okay so far as you get crumbs from the table. So you feel assured in your existence : All is well. This is what being an Omoluabi has become : being a cooperative errand boy to the caliphate.

When the blade does go down on the Yoruba scrotum for sure, we will be here to see you still frequent Igbo threads.

This isn't about antagonism.

Tribes emerge from tribes especially tribes that live in close proximity to each.

It's very naive to assume that descent of Nembe from Igbo and Izon is possible but regard the possibility that some igbo clans may actually have descended from Nembe and Ekpeye as 'antagonism' of Igbo interests.



No tribe descended from Heaven.

About Wakrike (Okrika)

Every Wakrike group you walk into they keep murmuring on being owners of Port Harcourt. The consistency with which they claim the area amongst themselves would make one think they are being honest.

The status of Port Harcourt is well documented though despite any land grabbing moves. It is only the stupid act of the Ikwerres that allows the Wakrike claim Port Harcourt. A simple adage says : when there is infighting within the fold a stranger would take the inheritance. That is simply what is playing out. Udo nu.
