  • They said Igbos are only in the 5 South East state... Somebody lied!

    They said Igbos are not in BAYELSA State... Somebody lied!

    They said there are no Igbos in Kogi, Benue, Edo, Cross River, Akwa Ibom and Rivers State... Somebody lied!

    Now I we must ask, why are the Igbo communities story in Osakwenike, Sagbama Local Government Area of BAYELSA State not being told.

    An under developed area and totally cut off from every government and social amenities.

    Why?

    Let’s Unify IGBOS Now
