You guys should stop giving these people unnecessary attention or relevance. naturally they're not flamboyant hence the need to attach to those who are. that's why they love the whole we vs them nonsense because it gives them cheap publicity and the fact that we promote it makes them feel they're important even when they're not. they take advantage of our colorful nature. putting people with a rich culture/tradition in the same sentence with people without any is not worth it

Hi nairalanders, I apologize for bothering you with my problems. I'm an extra year student of oau Ile-Ife, and I'm encountering problem in paying for the extra session. My dad is late and my mum is not bouyant enough to pay, I heard that late registration that will attract an extra fee of #2000 has already started. The fees is around #27,000 minus accomodation. I don't mind if it's a loan or if I have to work for it, I just want to have a university degree. Help me, I don't want to become a 'dropout'. Help me in becoming a better person. Life is about to deny me life, help in rescuing me. Thanks in anticipation.

Stop buying into those nonsense by jobless bloggers

Yet if we check well the idokos were probably from Ife too

Afterall According to the Yoruba, all of humanity traces it's origins to Ife

You are obviously suffering from identity crisis or MPD. Stick to one ethnicity and stop talking from both side of your mouth.

omoiseselagba:

What makes Ekiti, Ijesa, Egba to be yoruba? When u can answer this you will know that which makes Ijebu yoruba


Unless u believe dat sudan nonsense?

The Awujale is on his own oo...

"But unlike the Awujale's view, the position of a majority of the Ijebu obas in the course of this research work, notably the Liken of Iwopin, Ajalorun of Ijebu –Ife, Lenuwa of Ode-Omi, Osobiya of Makun omi, Orimolusi’s Regent, Ayangbunren of Ikorodu, Akarigbo of Remo, to mention but a few is in support of the Ife tradition as the source of the origin of the Ijebu, like other Yoruba people"

the picture doesn't matter, do you know how your ancestor dress 500 years ago.

Now let me tell you if you don't know the history of the Ijebus or the Gbebus, better ask google, We are not the descendant of Oni or oduduwa that claim he came to ife by chain from heaven, i sorry for my yoruba teacher that thought me that when i was in primary school, and i'm proud to boldly told my children to challenge the moral and thinking faculty of any teacher trying or willing to teach them same, that how come, even Jesus the savor of the whole world (the son of God) didn't came down from heaven with a chain, This ife and oduduwa story is what i called mumbo jumbo.

omoiseselagba:

correct

Omo yoruba to the bone....not changing dat

But I thought oduduwa was one of the sons of the first oba of benin who happens to send his son oduduwa during the war and they got to osun and settled down there and start ruling osun until they migrated to lagos at lagos island and use there as a war camp which make them name it EKO meaning war camp in bini dialect.

Though I can't just recall the history again cos I did it in my university days in my GST.(nigerian peoples and culture)

eluquenson:

Yes, but you believe you're descendant of Oduduwa.

Ijebu history, check.

You're right. As told by oral tradition, the Idoko people were the autochthonous dwellers of Ijebu and they have either all died off or been assimilated by the settlers from Ife.

If Ile Ife had been in existence since 350 BC, that means Modakeke had been in existence since 700 BC. U guys should tell a better lie
