I also do know for a fact that quite a huge number of our people will take keen interest in the title of this piece and many of them are people like us – the silent majority who by means of geography and ethnicity are regarded as Nigeria's minority tribes.

Whereas we are the only homogenous Ijaw state – the home base of all Ijaw people and the epicenter of Ijaw civilization and culture, yet we are the least in terms of land mass and population! The entire state only measures up to 21,110 km2 (8,150 sq mi).
