(BTW, fwiw, I don't much care if Ekiti is "ruled" by a non-Ekiti man. I'm more interested in competent leaders in my part of Yorubaland than the leader necessarily being from my sub-ethnic group.)

same with every state in Nigeria. They all claim to have this and that but can never produce enough to feed themselves how much less feeding others.

jason123:

But it is a LINGUISTIC MAP not a Territorial map

jason123:

That is OUR generation not our father's. Nigeria was founded on tribalism and every ethnic group is with respect to the other. I mean, to an Ekiti man, you might be from Ekiti pupa while he is from Ekiti oke. To a Lagosian, you are an Ekiti man. To an Igbo man, you are Yoruba. To an African, you are Nigerian etc.

Until "that" generation is gone, we can't go through with your idea, although good but  . . .

Bliss4Lyfe:

Linguistically out of place Jason, Were are the bibio,Annang,Oron of Akwa Ibom on the linguistic map?

aloy/emeka:

How do you intend to achieve that when the same sentiments are transferred from generations to generations?. As a matter of fact, it is becoming worse because the internet has succeed in proliferating tribalism in Nigeria.

jason123:

Where is Itsekiri, Isoko or Uhrobo in that map? Exactly! The map also took into account the ethnic population and origin. Hence, Uhrobo was grouped as Benin and Itsekiri was grouped as Yoruba.

aloy/emeka:




Are you also claiming lands in Cameroun and Benin republic?

EzeUche!:

Isn't this a linguistic map?

Were these borders not arbitrarily drawn by Europeans without the consent of Africans themselves?

aloy/emeka:

The truth is that Igbos and Yorubas are slowly becoming a threat to not only themselves and fellow Nigerians but neighboring countries. Becomerich had drawn similar map on how he will agitate for Oduduwa state and you did the same thing today. I wouldn't be surprised if these peaceful neighbors allay their fears over colonization and tyranny by Igbo and Yoruba thugs. This thing is getting out of hand. Stop usurping people's land in order to enlarge your territory. Are you a Russian?

jason123:

But to be real, The Yoruba empire (Oyo) actually extended to Benin, Togo and eastern Ghana where they fought the Ashantes and defeated them but did not bother rule them.

THE EPIC BATTLE BETWEEN THE YORUBAS AND THE ASHANTIS AT ATAKPAME (PRESENT DAY TOGO). IT IS POPULARLY KNOWN AS "THE BATTLE OF ATAKPAME"

Jason, I know the story you are trying to tell but it's not quite the way u tell it. The gist is the yoruba's(men) intruded into the lands of the fon and were mistaken for hostile intruders and attacked by fon women and defeated from which the mythology of Amazonian women imaged.
