Oduduwa Was Not Igbo Prince – Oluwo Of Iwo by ebusnwaoma: 3:10am On Apr 25, 2019
The Oluwo of Iwoland, Oba Abdulrosheed Akanbi who debunked claims made by Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has stated that Oduduwa who is the founding father of the Yoruba tribe was not an  Igbo  prince. Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi who told the Igbos to  research on the adventure of their own Odudunwa, described the claim as  false and misleading.

The Oluwo of Iwo who stated that Oduduwa was not an  Igbo  prince, said in a statement through his Chief Press Secretary; 

“The Yoruba nation was founded by Oduduwa. He brought the first civilisation, which is the crown. Oduduwa demontrated an unequalled leadership. He was shrewd, peculiar, unparalleled, unmatched, quintessential  and different. He  served his people and became a rallying point for his services to humanity. He gave us the best tradition, so respectful and obedient. The Yoruba culture is rich, very beautiful and unblemished. It emanated from Oduduwa. 

“History is rich, necessary and must always be objective,  because it is a foundation for the future. Worldwide, Yorubaland is the source of every natural crown. Our crowns are divinely ordained and sacred. It was brought by Oduduwa. And we owe him a duty  to defend everything about him” He further added that  the  fact that Oduduwa means last- born in the Igbo language, does not make anyone bearing a similar name  Igbo-born.

Obi of Onitsha started all this.
Is shameful Igbo and Edos are claiming Oduduwa cheaply. Who doesn't like good thing.cheesy? When did igbo started having rulers? Nor b yesterday? Hausas too are still claiming him too.

Oduduwa was a Yoruba leader and his direct son founded OWO (Ondo-State) , Ajashe(Benin Republic) etc while his great great great grandsons Oranmiyan founded Benin (Edo State)

The Oba of Benin 's official Palace language was Yoruba before it was banned in 1946. Oba and Olori are Yoruba title

I regret the outburst of d Ooni of ife.. He should not have said anything but again Obi of Onitsha started it all.

Who is the father of oduduwa,did oduduwa really fell down from sky.



Mean while it your oba that -is trying to do what yorubas a good in doing(rewriting history)just to claim Great Igbos and yoruba are related, then we will help you do that,


fact now is oduduwa which mean odudu nwa(last born) is the founder of yorubas,

oduduwa(last born) was wicked,envy and greed,he was last born but he want to take over all her father's properties, which in igbo land the first son owns the obi,while the last born owns the mother's nkpuke,but because of his greediness he want to claim everything,

he tried to kill his brothers but his plans failed,that was why he was banished out of igbo land,then he went to west where he settled and married an ido woman,who give birth to the people called Yorubas now.

Oduduwa wasn't his original name. He was called oduduwa because the people in ancient Ife could pronounce his name.

Everybody should just stop being myopic on this matter please. If obi of onitsha said the real dwellers of ile ife were the igbos, he may be right . Because when our forefather odu to da iwa got to ile ife, he didn't meet goats, rams , monkeys and/or chimpanzees. He met human beings , likewise when his son got to Benin, he met people already doing their things. In the olden days, powerful people staged wars and conquered territories. It's possible oduduwa conquered those he met in ile ife and displaced them. This is quite possible. I've researched about the igbos and some things we have in common. The way they pronounce some things has proved it all, which we also share in common.
