Demmzy15: You guys should stop giving these people unnecessary attention or relevance. naturally they're not flamboyant hence the need to attach to those who are. that's why they love the whole we vs them nonsense because it gives them cheap publicity and the fact that we promote it makes them feel they're important even when they're not. they take advantage of our colorful nature. putting people with a rich culture/tradition in the same sentence with people without any is not worth it 9 Likes 1 Share |

Hi nairalanders, I
apologize for bothering
you with my problems.
I'm an extra year
student of oau Ile-Ife,
and I'm encountering
problem in paying for
the extra session.
My dad is late and my
mum is not bouyant
enough to pay, I heard
that late registration
that will attract an
extra fee of #2000
has already started.
The fees is around
#27,000 minus
accomodation.
I don't mind if it's a
loan
or if I have to work
for
it, I just want to have
a
university degree.
Help me, I don't want
to become a 'dropout'.
Help me in becoming a
better person.
Life is about to deny
me
life, help in rescuing
me.
Thanks in anticipation. |

The Awujale is on his own oo... "But unlike the Awujale's view, the position of a majority of the Ijebu obas in the course of this research work, notably the Liken of Iwopin, Ajalorun of Ijebu –Ife, Lenuwa of Ode-Omi, Osobiya of Makun omi, Orimolusi’s Regent, Ayangbunren of Ikorodu, Akarigbo of Remo, to mention but a few is in support of the Ife tradition as the source of the origin of the Ijebu, like other Yoruba people" Reference: Ife Origin Influence in the History of Ijebu People of SouthWestern Nigeria (Pp. 13-24) Ayinde, Abimbola - Department of Arts and Social Sciences Education, Faculty of Education, University of Lagos, Akoka–Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria www.ajol.info/index.php/afrrev/article/view/72290 |

saxywale:the picture doesn't matter, do you know how your ancestor dress 500 years ago. Now let me tell you if you don't know the history of the Ijebus or the Gbebus, better ask google, We are not the descendant of Oni or oduduwa that claim he came to ife by chain from heaven, i sorry for my yoruba teacher that thought me that when i was in primary school, and i'm proud to boldly told my children to challenge the moral and thinking faculty of any teacher trying or willing to teach them same, that how come, even Jesus the savor of the whole world (the son of God) didn't came down from heaven with a chain, This ife and oduduwa story is what i called mumbo jumbo. 2 Likes 1 Share |

But I thought oduduwa was one of the sons of the first oba of benin who happens to send his son oduduwa during the war and they got to osun and settled down there and start ruling osun until they migrated to lagos at lagos island and use there as a war camp which make them name it EKO meaning war camp in bini dialect. Though I can't just recall the history again cos I did it in my university days in my GST.(nigerian peoples and culture) |
