IJAW YOUTH COUNCIL (IYC) WORLDWIDE Press Release 30th September, 2019 NIGERIA @59: WE ARE YET TO GET DEMOCRATIC INDEPENDENT As Nigerians are celebrating 59 years of Independence, IYC sees the celebration as a gathering of stoical dancers. Nigerians, especially the ethnic minorities are still under internal colonialism. There cannot be anything called Independence when some ethnic groups are under the colony of the majority ethnic groups. The political subjugation and annexation of the minority ethnic groups to live as free citizens in a Country that belongs to everyone smack of a Country lacking Democratic independent. Laws have been enacted for over the years through legislative processes by these domineering major tribes to colonise the minorities. The growing political marginalisation and economic strangulation as well as the economic apathy in the management of the natural resources in the Niger Delta region is a fall out of the internal colonialism Nigeria is practicing. Nigeria c...

Lecture delivered by Miss Serena Ogodobiri Teenagers are explorers and when left to explore and discover things on their own they stumble on a lot of things both positive and negative, the decisions they make when cornered at that time is dependent on the orientation given them in years before. Information they received from their family, peer group or social media is what they would apply to the present situation. If it was a good one then it is okay but what happens when it is one devoid of all moral virtues? Parents should know their teenagers are no longer crawling toddlers they can pick up and put in a crib, come back and remove from the crib, they now have a shared responsibility with  their teenagers. The only thing you know as a parent is that your child has gone to school, you have no idea what happens in the school. Influence your child positively so they can speak good of you to their peer group(s) and flee the risk of having to take social advice from them instead. Ofte...

By Presidor Ghomorai “How well have we faired in the area of getting a well articulated paper to push for our agitation for more States, Local Government Areas and Boundary adjustments?” The oppressor never feels or knows oppression; only the oppressed feels or knows it. It is also only the oppressed that can put a stop to oppression; also only a determined, committed, united and virile group with all sincerity and sense of purpose that can functionally face the toughness involved in fighting oppression.  Therefore the Ijaw people of this world who are being oppressed must today first clamour for commitment and unity coupled with sincerity and genuine sense of purpose for us to put a stop to our oppression.  The Ijaws must know that the Ijaw question is a national issue. So there is the need for us (Ijaw) to come together and work consciously for the Ijaw nation to move forward. As the fourth largest ethnic group with a population of over 15 million, and the producers of appro...
