I'm not itsekiri but funny part I was able to read this part you posted

"Mo ki agha oma itsekiri dede yi gha nibe"

Which means "mo ki awa omo itsekiri dede ti(o) wa nibi"

Between I'm yoruba ooo, is this coincidence? Somebody educate me, I know ilaje is yoruba sha
but itsekiri I don't think so,pardon my naivety.

It sound more like the ijebu-yoruba sha,I stand to be corrected tho

U ARE VERY CORRECT,...ACTUALLY ITSEKIRI IS 70% ijebu,30% owo,.......cos i have neva seen an yoruba man dat doesnot understand itsekiri,and there is no itsekiri man dat doesnot understand yoruba.

Itsekiris r NOT from yoruba.. ok

actually there have been a long misconception dat d itsekiris are are from benin,but dats light years from d truth,cos the itsekiri nation has been in existence befor d prince iginuwa came from benin,ode itsekiri,ureju,ode ugborodo,omadino communities e'tal has been in existence centuries before d bini prince arrival,....even my own grandfather,told me dat the ITSEKIRIs ARE RIVERINE YORUBAS,WHO STAYed CLOSE TO THE RIVER BANKS,BECAUSE OF THEIR KIND OF OCCUPATION,NAMELY FISHERY AND MERCHANDISE,.
NO WONDER (ALL) ITSEKIRI TOWNS AND VILLAGES ARE CLOSE A RIVER,FROM UGBOLOKPOSO,TO KOKO,FROM WARRI TO UGWANJA...

@bolded...

There were communities independent as fishing settlements..

The itsekiri nation was born when iginuwa came!
Before iginuwa there was nothing like itsekiri

Below are excerpts from itsekiricanada.com

History reveals that in several waves of migration before the 15th Century, and some a little later, groups from Igala in Nupe country came in through the creeks; Yoruba from ljebu-Ode, Akure and Owo found their way into parts of the Kingdom and a group from Aboh also came in. Some along the coast came in through Gulani/Amatu.

Half ijebu man by maternal, well that's true like the "dede" word. Will read up on edekiri, history is interesting though.

Between your signature is weird, hypocrites are everywhere.

We'll true talk @ what u said about the signature but if you really do a survey you'll find out that am saying it based on facts

You don come

Must you mention Igbo

Seriously, no joke..
I know she is Urhobo, but she looks like Igbo 100%..
Ask a Yoruba or an Hausa who she resembles in cultural appearance, they won't waste a single seconds to tell you she is Igbo...
My Gf is Urhobo.. Similar resemblance in culture and language..
E.g Obara means blood in both Igbo and Urhobo..

Omugo which means "nursing one's newly born grand-child" is used both in Igbo and Urhobo...

And Many More......

there is no need for quarrel,but get ur facts right.
IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN OLU OF WARRI,AND IT WILL REMAIN SO......deal with it,cos there is nuffin u guys can do abt it.

not even gov. james ibori(an urhobo) nor former president jonthan(an ijaw),could do anything about it,......i pity u.

I love the beads.....also can we leave people to celebrate and showcase their culture without Yoruba or Igbo being mentioned?

Proudly Urhobo!.......Thank God for the PEACE IN WARRI,may this peace continue among the three indigenous tribes of Warri: Urhobos,Ijaws and the Itsekiris.
