whirlwind7:
Fulani is not in the list, so how come they are one of the major tribes in the north?
Did you omit it?

Bubu will not be happy about this.

DRCIC:
@Op nice job, but the list is incomplete. More so number 138, Gokana n khana are local government areas in Rivers State not tribes, they are the Ogonis.
Ogoni comprises of 3 local government areas, the 2 mentioned above and Tai LGA.
Ikwerre, the biggest tribe in Rivers State is omitted.

Urhobo is Edoid no doubts but your postulation on coming together with Bini and Esan may not work for various reasons.

For one, these languages, apart from Urhobo and Isoko, are mutually unintelligible in EVERY WAY. We don't greet the same way, we dont share similar words, we dont have similar sentence structures, etc
These languages, apart from Urhobo and Isoko, are culturally divergent. Esan and Bini subscribe to the Oba of Benin while Urhobo and Isoko only recognise his power but do not subscribe to him in any way. Culturally, as well, we dont have the same beliefs, common folklore, common modes of dressing, common religions, etc.


So, like I said, it would be like lumping in the tower of babel populace and forcing them to be one if Urhobo, Esan and Bini are to become one. However, Urhobo and Isoko can do this due to their striking similarity in language and cultural homogeneity. In this regards, I always argue that Urhobo and Isoko, rather than divide and become minorities, with Isoko being a micro-minority, should harmonise themselves and gazette their harmony so that they can become a formidable force in the South-South!

Esan has his own king,please only speak what you know. All the five local government of the Esan tribe has a king
Esan migrated from Benin kingdom just like your Urbhobo etc the only different yours is in Delta while Esan is in Edo state.
My 2kobo!

fratermathy:


Correct me if I am wrong but I believe Esan kings are ONLY Dukes (Enogies) and Reagents (Odions) to the Oba of Benin ?

This is a common trend to all the tribes in Edo State. The former Benin Empire made sure of this hegemonic system.

Okpe kingdom is one of the highly revered and respected kingdom in Urhobo land. The Orodje of Okpe is a First Class monarch and one of the most influential monarchs in Delta State. Okpe people speak a distinct dialect of Urhobo that has striking similarities to Isoko. Their dialect is almost unintelligible to other Urhobo speakers but the average Okpe man can speak and understand central Agbarho Urhobo. Okpe kingdom encompasses Orerokpe, the traditional headquarters, through Amukpe and Aghalokpe, to Sapele, the commercial city of Okpe kingdom! Other major towns include Okuokoko and Osubi which are in the Warri Metropolis, Oha, Okuodiete, etc.

Ask me what you want to know about Okpe people if you are interested

martha89:
the Urbhobos ones might be a dukes not Esan.

YourNemesis:


The list is just poo.
But you know there are two Egbemas, one is an Igbo tribe, the other one is Egbema Ijaw grup.

Esan kingdoms had a varying degree of autonomy, but were ultimately controlled by the Benin Empire. The Oba approved the Enogie of Esanland, and Esan kingdoms paid tribute to Benin.

TheArchangel:
Ne kwanu anya. Egbema of Imo and Egbema of Rivers which was separated by an imaginary line because of oil.


Abeg no make I vex for you sir. Which kain Egbema ijaw? What the fvck.
