Socio-Cultural Signposts
In the imagination of millions of non-Ijaws to be Ijaw is nearly almost equivalent to being social protester. Well that is not entirely wrong, and there would not be any need to correct that impression. Indeed the Ijaws, from colonial days of both the British, but first Portuguese incursions, Ijaw have been known to be some of the best diplomats as well as war strategists. Hence whether the name is Adaka Isaac Boro or Kenule Saro Wiwa, Ijaw people have always had a heritage to defend, a history to remake!
