My point is there is no convincing evidence that he was even born in AFrica in the first place except for what he claims which he could have picked up from other slaves. He could mention Eboe words but not the names of his mother or father.? Is that credible

ezeagu:


Who said he forgot his clan? Are we not reading Essaka in his book? Your argument is decades late, his origin has been placed to be more than likely in Igboland, and as has been said his nationalistic stance regarding his Igbo identity probably means he could have been Igbo even if he was born in the Carolinas, apart from that you're expecting an 11 year old child with poor English who was seen as property to have solid information on his documents, you're expecting a man who had to take the legal name of Gustavus Vassa in order not to be mistaken as an unsold African to be completely transparent in all of his dealings even when his friend had been kidnapped and sold into slavery?

Your arguments are pointless. Olaudah Euqiano used an Igbo name and an Igbo identity, whether by birth or by choice, he is Igbo.

By similar afonja logic, how are we sure that aribisala0 is not some kind of software program that is posting things on Nairaland?


We have no evidence that aribisala0 is human, therefore aribisala0 must be a computer software program.

You aren't Yoruba at all, you are the one ridiculing yourself here. His full name is Ibrahim badamasi babangida. When you don't know thing, you learn. So if he's not Yoruba, I challenge you to mention any northerner that bears badamasi and tell me the meaning in Hausa.

Other Igbo names that contain "ola"

Olaedo/ Onaedo (Gold/ Precious)
Olanma (Beautiful pearl)

aribisala0:
There is no evidence that he was born in Nigeria whether Eboe or Edo that is the simple truth. Deal with it.
With his own hand he also wrote and claimed to have been born in the Americas and also Africa Which should we believe?. The only evidence of anything is what he claimed i.e his own words
He could have heard that from other slaves and appropriated the story as his for his abolition campaign but for all we know he could be from anywhere.

Please stop all the bullshite. Slaves did not keep African names but their owners names
and Olaudah don't mean shite anyway

His very own autobiography.

Stop twisting history.
Olaudah was a Benin man from etsako area.

aribisala0:
Don't be silly

So what if it is his very own biography ? That makes it the Bible?

Even the bible is full of make believe and fiction

I am sure Muhammad believes every word of his Quran too
that does not mean I should.

You think I just type stuff without thinking?

The same man that said he was born in Africa on at least two occasions claimed he was born in the Americas. Either he was lying or he was confused. Or he decided to embellish his own biography. Would he be the first to do that?
You must be one of those people who believe stuff because it is in a book
