The worst waste of time is arguing with a fool and fanatic who believe in the victory of his illusions without a superior logic.

Bonny is an Ijaw town.
Full stop.
The people of Bonny are Ibani — an Eastern Ijaw (Ijo) group. This is not debatable.
Ibani oral tradition and the standard historical work by E.J. Alagoa & A. Fombo record that the founders (Alagbariye, Opuamakuba, Asimini, Ndoli) migrated from the Isedani lineage of Kolokuma in the Central Niger Delta. They founded Okoloama (Bonny).
Their language is Ibani, classified as Eastern Ijo.
Their political system (House system, Amanyanabo) is Ijaw.
They have always identified as Ijaw.
Yes, 18th–19th century European traders like Captain Hugh Crow and John Adams described a large Eboe (Igbo) presence. That was real — because Bonny was a major slave-trading port and absorbed many Igbo captives and traders. Language and population mixed. Origin and identity did not.
Igbo influence through trade and slavery does not turn an Ijaw kingdom into an Igbo one. Bonny’s founders, language family, institutions, and self-identification remain Ijaw.
Bonny = Ibani = Ijaw.
That’s the historical record.
@ifeora90 Bonny was a slave port. Heavy slave trade took place there
And we all know, Igbos were the major slaves that were being traded. So yes, meeting Igbos in bonny is true.
This is why I don't like to engage you.
You can't argue your point without threats, insults and cuss words.
Always trying to bully the other to shut up. So you'd look like the winner.
But. I am not a rascal like you.
I'll rather prove to you that I have a better IQ and superior argument by intelligently give you verifiable facts, not fabricated, coined and lobsided screen shots from text you can't name.
Bonny is an Ijaw (Ibani) kingdom and town by founding tradition, language classification, political structure, and how its people identify. It is not a Brass town, though Brass people formed part of the mix Crow saw. It is also not simply “an Igbo land,” even though Igbo language, ancestry, and culture became very strong through centuries of trade, slavery, and intermarriage. The European captains recorded the creolized, Igbo-heavy society of their own time;
Ijaw historians recorded the older migration and identity that still defines the kingdom.
May you die shamelessly, where was it written he married Ijaw, it's no longer ijaw or jomen were his masters? Thunder will destroy all of you with that cheap lies.
@FeppleWinks@ifeora90 In some text, he is credited as the founder.
Even though he married ijaw women and fathered ijaw sons.
This is why I said, "some merit" we can't take away his Igbo origin.
But the land and he himself are properties of the Ijaws in bonny
I have seen you drop this screen shot in all your post and comments about Bonny and opubo.
I like the fact that you cleverly and always post the part that suits your narrative.
Now, this book and the author never claimed that bonny or it's environs belong to the heboes.
What he however did was describe the people he met in that area which according to him was a Mix of the brass and heboes people.
In this book. He also noted that the heboes were from another country.
But yes, continue with your delusion.
One day I will have the time to debunk you page by page and line for line.
I didn't, And I am not saying that.
I don't know the details of the Bill gates GMO products or plants. Assuming that is what you are referring to.
I am only telling you that.
Genetically modifying of plants and crops through selective breading has been on for ages and have produced a good number of plants and fruits successfully with no harmful effects (all natural).
Even the avocado that we enjoy was through this process, the ancestors had a thiner pulp (the edible part)
460k impressions in a day.
A day were I was even serving jail term (suspendedfor 15 hours, no post, no likes, no repost, no bookmarks, nothing)
There was definitely a glitch in the metrics.
Maybe. They lifted the shadow ban 😄😄😄😄
The only Reason Igbo people are insisting Ijaws are Igbos or are part of Biafra is because of the crude oil in our lands.
Unfortunately, that is the only reason why the Yoruba's too do not want to think of a divided Nigeria.
According to NUPRC,
No Individual owns oil wells,
Only Oil companies can obtain OML or OPL licenses.
This companies can be cooperate owned or individually owned.
To answer your question, I will list a few ijaw sons that owns oil companies and this companies holds the OML and OPL licenses.
1. Jack-Rich Tein – Founder and President of Belemaoil Producing Limited. (Rives state)
2. Kestin Pondi – The Ijaw-born businessman and CEO of Kalm Marine & Petroleum Services Ltd (Delta state)
3. Timipre Sylva, former governor of bayelsa state and Minister of petroleum (state).
Others include.
*Azikiel Azibapu (owner of Azikiel group, also owns a refinery in bayelsa state as we speak)
*Glory Ekine
* Late chief Horsfall
* Late Diepreye Alamiesegha
* Chief Dump Lulu briggs.
You can Google this person's in this context.
