ifyboy60: Babangida is purely an Hausa Name.I have stayed in the North and i understand Hausa.They bear Badamasi as a name also. Baba means Father Gida means House. Babangida means Father of the house in Hausa. |

Liebermantic: The original commenter meant to say that the person of babangida is not Hausa by ethnicity. The argument stemmed from his middle name badamasi not being Hausa (some alluded it to be Yoruba). The name babangida however as you've spelled out is Hausa no doubt. |

Sukkot, Ivolt, Pigsandidiots and Aribisala (or what have you), you guys should take a break abeg! All over the world there is a consensus that Olaudah Equiano was Eboe (Igbo) born in Essaka in Anambra state; the man spoke Eboe, wrote in Eboe (or tried to), wrote about Eboe and claimed to be Eboe, so should we really be having this argument? The Sun newspaper (UK) did an article on him to celebrate his birthday and it was pointed out that he was Eboe from Essaka in Anambra state. Common sense and a good sense of history would have exposed any body to the fact that some Igbo communities came under the influence of the Bini Empire; and centuries ago, when our indigenous languages hadn't had a standardized system of writing using the Latin/English Alphabet, it was commonplace to see our native names rendered in English as they sound. For example, Igbo was spelled as 'Heebo' or 'Eboe' (up to this present day, Igbo is still wrongly spelt as 'IBO'); Orisa as OrisHa; Ohambala anglicised as Anambra; Shaworo (a Yoruba community in Benin Republic) was called Tchaourou; Wese was Ouesse; and many more of such renditions just to make the name conform to their style. How many of us pronounce Wenger (Arsene) as 'Venga' - which is the authentic pronunciation. I am in no doubt that Equiano was 'Ikwuano'. 5 Likes |

aribisala0: Ola is a common Igbo name But this Olaudah is anglicised ...it's original means Oludah Ekwuano .... The surname is Ekwuano and it's a common ground Igbo surname ...the English don't have KW so they use Q instead My dear you should know that amongst the African races...the most intelligent are Igbo and Ethiopians...it's a fact I don't know why we are in same country with lower IQ people 2 Likes |

Akamkpa kings Let us stick to the subject here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Olaudah_Equiano&action=history In your desperation you have been busy editing the Olauda story un Wikipedia well there is the log for you Your people are nothing but savages with NO STORY and NO HISTORY that is why yo so desperately need this 1 Like |

I suggest you go and edit the history of how tiny Akamkpa installed their sons as Kings and lords in Aro Or are the Aros not slaves of Akamkpa?? |
Re: Who Was Olaudah Equiano? Google Marks 272nd Birthday Of Abolitionist by Amarabae(f): 6:49am On Oct 17, 2017 |
aribisala0:and i ask you what history do you people have? A history of slavehood to the fulanis as demonstrated by ilorin conquest by the emirate. Is that the history? Or a history that can not provide you people with good foods nor beauty, looking like rejected sacrifice offered to a deity. OR a history where Dahomey women defeated your forefathers in battle? pathetic history. Equaino describe himself as eboe and thats final and the literary world known him as that, you can cry us a river from now to forever, it changes nothing, and dont disturb my mention again, if you still want an attack, I will send you my dogs, both of you can relate better. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Amarabae:We have a history of Empire that stretched to Ghana Our religion has universal following Ilorin was not conquered clearly you are ignorant. That is very different from the story of Aro conquest by Akamkpa. It does not matter to me whether he is Eboe what is pathetic is your desperation ,desperation that he must be, desperation to be Jews. Your people are nothing, just shadows |
