SIMPLE QUESTION ?

Dear IGBOS Where did you people originate from?
Some say👉 ISREAL ( Nri GAD Jacob son)
some say👉 ERI ( the spiritual creator)
some say 👉 IGBOS are the first Human.
Some say 👉 AROCHUKWU is the founder.
Which do we believe??
First there is no link between IGBO and ISREAL, second only GOD ( Yahweh) is the creator of the earth according to the holy Bible with evidences and references in Isreal, Egypt, Palestine, Ethiopia and some other Asian, European countries, IGBOS wasn't mentioned in both the Bible and Quran. Thirdly ARO is arguably an offspring of Ibibion ( calabar ). so where did IGBOS came from??

The fact remains that tribes like IGODOMIGODO ( bini) Ijaw, ibibions, iwhuruohna, ogonis, etc have been on this Niger/Delta and eastern regions before the founding of IGBOS. Some came from neighboring Western countries, ARO came from ibibions/efik, ONICHA and some clans in Anambra came from IGALA, some broke out from Ancient Bini kingdom, and these different people settled together in the south/estern and formed IGBO.. infact the word IGBO is a Yoruba word which means "" people in the thick forest"" no IGBO man knows the meaning of igbo in his Language. The conclusion is that IGBO is not a tribes it's the joining of two different tribes. and ikwerre ( iwhuruohna) is their next target now, they force you to be igbo while they lack the knowledge or who they are..

MARGINALIZATION OF THE SOUTH-EASTERN NIGERIA

The great but painful reality of my region is that the infrastructural decay, especially, the condition of federal roads in my region, is unbelievably unbearable.

Folks spend hours on distances that should have taken minutes to travel through.

They made sure we don't have a dry port or container terminal.

They won't allow any of the seaports at Port Harcourt, Onne, Calabar or Warri to function.

They said our own railway will be the last to be reconstructed. Twenty year olds in my region have only seen a train on Television.

They are yet to deliver the second Niger bridge, after playing politics with it for years.

We still don't have a functional international Airport and a cargo wing.

Then, the only available means of transportation, the roads, are living hell.
As if there's a deliberate policy to make life miserable for our people.

Same region still has the highest number of checkpoints on the same horrible roads.
Folks returning home are forced to bugdet for the regular extortion on the same terrible roads.

The condition of federal roads in my region hurts.
Please help me let the world know what we are going through.

Here is a list of some of the affected federal roads in my region.

1. 82 Division- 9th mile section of the degraded Enugu-Onitsha expressway

2. Both lanes of the road from Abakpa junction

3. The Amansea portion of the Enugu-Onitsha road.

4. The Owerri-Umuahia road and Owerri – Aba road - The Emekuku in Owerri North, Oboama Nguru in Aboh Mbaise and Achingali in Obowo areas of the road are the worst portions of the road.

5. The Owerri end of the Owerri – Aba road and the Ulakwo axis .

6. Osisioma to Port Harcourt axis of the dual carriage road

7. The highway between Aba and Obigbo in Rivers state, particularly at Ariaria Junction, Alaojii Mechanic Village and Asa axis.

8. The Port Harcourt Road traversing Aba.

9. The Ikot Ekpene-Umuahia federal highway linking southeast and Akwa Ibom state, particularly the Ikwuano axis.

10. The Umuahia-Ohafia-Arochukwu federal road has almost collapsed.

When will they have mercy on the poor masses of my region?
