Desola you can probably understand more of that than you think. Even I can hear a bit of it...and I'm not exactly the most fluent in yoruba |

Regarding Ekiti dialect...to be quite honest I'm not sure whether the dialect in my town is closer to Ekiti or Ijesha (we live near the border of the two groups..) I do know that our dialect sounds kind of strange to mainstream Yoruba though |

We need an egun guy to confirm if they're yorubas or not - to stop the incessant arguments on NL about who are yorubas, or not... I can relate to the Ilajes, though. My home town is as swampy as theirs but we're not riverine people. |

alj harem: Okun is so much better, very intelligble to me as oppossed itsekiri. Here is an okun man singing in Okun, not much different from the regular Yoruba you hear on the streets of Lagos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwkGw9mnz20 |

Thoughts on mainstream Yoruba language supplanting the dialects? The advantages are pretty big I think, and certainly outweigh the costs. But I suppose that there is a loss of uniqueness/culture, increased homogeneity as a result of this too.. |

Desola: Lool! I don't understand Ijebu that much. I only know eweso, ke mi ti ri, ke mi se or etc. I picked that up from my grandma. But you Isale eko people need to give us our Eyo festival back. That's from my pops' place, Iperu remo. |

shymmex: We need an egun guy to confirm if they're yorubas or not - to stop the incessant arguments on NL about who are yorubas, or not... I can relate to the Ilajes, though. My home town is as swampy as theirs but we're not riverine people.One person's opinion does not give credence to where a group belongs. I'm sure if one egun guy comes and says egun people are Yorubas and another egun niggga says otherwise, you'll believe the one that supports your belief, right? Personally, i think all this groups are classified under the Yoruba ethnic group which is quite different from tribe. That's where some people get it wrong. Yoruba is like a club of people with similar idiosyncrasies and not necessarily of the same lineage. |

Ilaje44, all these we love Ilaje this and that from Yorubas are because Ilaje Land is oil rich, They want to feed fat on Ilaje oil money and allow you people die in poverty, the succeeded in doing that to the Aworis, today Aworis are strangers in their home land Lagos |

So it turns out that aside from being a counterfeit, Ilaje44 is also irresponsible (he claims to "yansh" girls), a bigot (describing Isoko's and Urhobo's with derogatoruy names) as well as a fool. That typical alj haram. |
Re: Why Are Some Fellas Obsessed With The ILAJE People? by aljharem(m): 7:23pm On Apr 26, 2012 |
Wily2wily: Ilaje44, Actually we Aworis have never regretted being called yorubas. It comes with a form of prestige BTW wily-wily I am still interested o ! |
