Christistruth00: It is wrong they came from Benin Republic not ile ife. What that chief said is totally different from what their Historian said and what they claimed themselves.

PureFace1: Look , the Yorubas of Benin Repubiic and Togo, the Egun Of Benin and Togo, the Ga and Ewe Tribes Of Benin, Togo and Ghana all migrated from Ile Ife and are descendants of Oduduwa Ouidah ,Weme and Allada were all originally part of the Yoruba Popo Kingdom that reached Togo The Fon Of Dahomey Conquered part of it and intermarried with the Popos to produce the Egun People and Language Even the Fon People themselves had some Yoruba Ancestry but it was the Slave trade that truly put them on the Map They were Truly a Slave raiding and Trading Nation they didn’t even bother with Agriculture till Slavery was abolished after french Colonisation so the Egun had to flee from them to save themselves from Slavery When the Alaafin of Oyo reconquered the Kingdom both the Fon and Egun there became bilingual speaking Yoruba too in addition to the Gun gbe Language 5 Likes 3 Shares |

Etinosa1234: Yes you are not Yoruba The Bini People that we can call Yoruba were the people that followed Oranmiyan to Benin to helped him with ruling over Benin but overtime they got heavily influenced by Benin people and became part of them so they are no longer Yoruba. |

The Yorubas, including the illiterates among them, are a very intelligent group. They don't follow someone blindly unless they've seen substance in that person. They don't even need Hundeyin to find out whether to support Tinubu or not. Most of the so called "illiterates" that I've met who are not supporting Tinubu haven't met Hundeyin or read any of his articles before. Yet, they know the man doesn't mean well for them. Unless you can prove Tinubu's mental capacity to govern, his intent and his sincerity rather than the desperation he showing all over. You'd just keep wasting your time discrediting other people rather than tje next liability of a president you people are about to bring in. |

Sadly these wannabe “Yorubas” don’t know that the only true Yorubas are the Ibadan people. Every other Yoruba today was a Social construct set up by the British colonial master and their puppet Samuel Ajayi Crowther in an attempt to Christianize Western Nigeria. Same as Taiwanese are not Chinese, Ikweres are not Igbos ,Austrians are not Germans etc. That’s how Lagosian are not Yorubas, Ondo are not Yorubas, Ekiti are not Yorubas etc. Read people!!! 2 Likes |

PureFace1: The Egun and Ewe and Ga of Ghana are the same descendants of Yoruba People that all left Nigeria around the same time but due to heavy War along the Dahomey Coast reached their destination Locations at different periods and in different groups and they all speak Akan Gbe Languages Which came from the ancient Ghana Empire but they all practice Paternal Lineage like their Yoruba Ancestors did and not the Maternal Lineage Of the People Of the Ancient Ghana Empire that is how you know the tribes that migrated from Yorubaland apart from those that Migrated from the Ancient Ghana Empire The Egun People migrated all the way to Ghana with the Ewe that left from Oyo and the Ga that left from Ile Ife only to reach Ghana and migrate back to Ouidah in Benin Repubic because that was were their Oracle sent them to when War broke out with the Akwamu tribe in Ghana 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Soso75: You are the one that need to read, stop peddling falsehood Even Ibadan people originated from some where and they came from Ile - ife in Osun State. If you are not Ignorant you would know that Ibadan people are also known as Oyo people. The indigenous people of Osogbo in Osun State, Ede in Osun State, Ikirun, gbongan, Ogbomosho in Oyo state, Ila Orangun in Osun State, Ibadan in Oyo state etc. all belong to the same sub group of Yoruba known as Oyo people. Tell me how Ibadan people are the only True Yoruba when they speak the same Yoruba dialect as people in Osogbo, Ede, Ila Orangun, Ogbomosho, Ggbangan, Ikirun, etc? You see how stupid you sound. I am an Ijesha man from Ilesa in Osun State and I can understand all Oyo people in Osogbo, Ogbomosho, Ede, Ibadan etc when they speak their dialect, same way they can also understand me if I speak in my dialect, linguistically there is almost no differences except for pronunciation and intonations of certain words in Yoruba, culturally we are also the same, we greet the same way, worship the same kind of gods, wear the same kind of clothes etc nobody need to tell you you are the same kind of people to know you are the same kind of people if you have brain. You see that you are the stupid one that think he is wiser than 30 million people. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Christistruth00: Well I won't argue with you again Even if they have relationship with Yoruba they said they are not Yoruba and reject being Yoruba. Nobody can force them to be what they don't want to be, you read what David posted on Twitter? So it is your problem if you still call them Yoruba, to me they are not Yoruba. |
Re: David Hundeyin Is Egun By Tribe And Not Yoruba by Christistruth00: 11:10am On Jul 23, 2022 |
PureFace1: The Egun , Ewe, Ga don’t reject their relationship with the Yorubas rather they confirm it by regularly by exchanging gifts with the Ooni and Alaafin and they send their own aHigh Chiefs as representatives to represent their People when the Yorubas are having their Ceremonies that are acknowledging Oduduwa as their founding Ancestor or Crowning a new Ooni or Alaafin they have done that for Centuries In today’s vocabulary it simply means they always, turn up for the family meetings Also when they are in War Situation they often send for the Yorubas to assist them on the basis of them being Oduduwa descendants That was how the Tarbons got to Ghana and settled with the Ga who were Yoruba descendants from Ife It was when the Ewe requested the help of their Yoruba brothers in fighting the Ashanti that were at War with them that Oyo defeated the Ashanti of Ghana in the Battle Of Atakpame in Togo in 1764 and till today Atakpame in Togo is 100% Yoruba and Yorubaland https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Atakpamé The Akus Of Sierra Leone and Gambia are also of Yoruba descent 3 Likes 3 Shares |

PureFace1: The Olupopo was one of the Sons of Oduduwa He founded the Popo Kingdom in what it today Benin Republic and Togo If you look at the old Maps you will see the Popo kingdom around Grand Popo and Little Popo in Benin Republic and Eastern Togo Olupopo the son of Oduduwa founded the Monarchy Of Tado in Togo Which became an Important Ancestral Town and another dispersion Point Of the Egun Ewe and Ga when the Fon Of Dahomey scattered the Area during their famous numerous War raids for slaves The Alaafin of Oyo reconquered the Area again and put them under Oyo rule At this Point I will digress a little to explain how and why the Fon Of Dahomey became Powerful enough to Take on the Yoruba Popo kingdom , the Fon Of Dahomey were more interested in supplying the Europeans with Slaves than any other neighbouring Tribes that did not want the Europeans interfering with the running of their Kingdoms and so the Europeans especially the Portuguese equipped the Fons Of Dahomey with not only European Firearms and Ammunition but also with Military Advisers and Training You can only imagine the havoc the Fon Of Dahomey unleashed on all the Neigbhouring tribes around them in their pursuit of Slaves to supply their European allies even ordinary Agriculture the Fons refused to practice , Slave raiding became their full time Occupation and way of life With the Military help of the Portuguese Slave traders the Fons became such Champions of the Slave trade that the Area was named the Slave Coast https://en.m.wikibooks.org/wiki/History_of_Grand-Popo 1 Like 1 Share |

Christistruth00: Christistruth00: You dey mind those lots. All Yorubas traced their root from Ile Ife. Including the Yorubas in Benin and Togo. The only difference is some Yorubas came from Oduduwa while some didn't. However, all Yorubas, including Oduduwa's offsprings came from Ile Ife. As for David hundeyin, that one doesn't know where he came from. No wonder he's angry at his mum. One minute he came from Kwara. Minutes later, he came from Egun which he can't even pronounce well.
