baby124: Our "Okos" are in Ikale, Ilaje, Ilesa, Oro and Ijebu. These "Okos" are unnamed because they are not incorporated into the Yoruba polity. They are still strangers. The villages are built around each other, are made up of an average of 10-20 houses and are headed by someone who answers to the Baale of the owners of the farm land they have settled on. The "Okos" are much in number and many are whittling away because they are returning home again. The few that are remaining are there because of other business concerns. They will eventually return. God forbids that Urhobos become like Igbos to claim another man's land or identity!!! But Egbon, you dull sha o. This simple thing I've been explaining, you just can't get! 2 Likes |

Why are you hiding my post? Your villages don't have name? Don't just say Ese Odo local government because even Fulani live there. Name these Urhobo villages you are claiming? |

fratermathy: Please list out those urhobo 'villages' or 'settlements', whichever suits you, in the SW for everyone here to read. If only you can prove yourself credible just once by providing concrete evidence out of many of your false claims. 1 Like |

fratermathy:Hahahahhhahah. Men, you are dumb. Your Okos in Ijebu? Name the Urhobo villages precisely. Stop naming Yoruba villages. A village must have a name. You claim you have villages in the SW, name them here. Urhobo names. 2 Likes |

fratermathy: They are not the same as Urhobo, so stop tagging Urhobo-Isoko as if they are one. They are not one. Stick to your Urhobo affairs strictly. |

baby124: Nothing is funny here whatsoever. The villages are known as Oko and if Urhobos want to identify each from each, we use the name of the original settle. i.e. Okoefe, Okoiroro, Okoese, etc. These "Okos" are NOT part of the local government structure of Yoruba country and are not indigenes! You don't like them there? report them to OPC! |

fratermathy:No villages exist in SW that start with Oko. Oko is farm in Yoruba so you are being michevious. You know that so you are being tricky. Even then those names Okoefe don't exist in Yorubaland. Maybe in your head. Hahahahaha. Okoefe ko, Okofrathermathy ni. |

bigfrancis21: Okay. Let it be known on this day that BigFrancis21, an IGBO moderator on Nairaland, has said Urhobo and Isoko are not one even when he could not provide proof that they were ever called one. Are you happy now? Can you sleep like a baby now? |
Re: Warri: The Urhobo/Isoko People In Entertainment And The Warri Brand by bigfrancis21: 10:17pm On Apr 11, 2017 |
fratermathy: On the contrary you failed to prove anything. 'Okos' are not villages in anyway neither are they in any traditional sense nor in the Nigerian definition of a village. One by one you are admitting to false circulation of news and facts. Keep it up. 1 Like |

baby124: You don't have to recognise them. Like I said, these "Okos" were informal and setup by migrants. They are NOT Yoruba villages.! I like how you exude ignorance on this forum. |

fratermathy: Lol, what were you thinking before that only you are 'educated' on African history and affairs and that the rest of us aren't or what? That you could come here and grab other people's land, empty chest beat, parade Urhobo supremacist tendencies over Ijaw and Itsekiris, make false claims etc. and expect not to be countered or what? And you CANNOT prove one, not even one, of the numerous false claims you've made on this thread. The JOKE is on YOU on your own thread. 4 Likes 1 Share |

fratermathy: fratermathy: fratermathy:LMAO. You are confused. Name these villages. There is no Okoese or Okoefe in Yorubaland. Even Urhobo's don't name villages with Oko.

baby124: You know nothing about Urhobo towns egbon. In my village, we have more than 20 "Okos". We have Okoedafe, Okurekpo, Okurikpehre, etc. All these "Okos" are not recognised as separate towns/villages from the central community even though they are distant and separate. That is the conception of "Okos" the Urhobos have in the SW! You don't have to like it or accept it, but they are there. If you don't like them there, start a movement to kick them out. 1 Like |

fratermathy:If they are not recognized as seperate villages and towns, how can you now call them a village? Are you confused or confusing yourself. There is no where in Nigeria that your definition qualifies for a village. Oko means farm in Yoruba. |

bigfrancis21: Okay. Let it be known to all that BIGFRANCIS21, an IGBO moderator on Nairaland is VERY educated on African history- so much that he doesn't know of Urhobo migrant villages, so much that he thinks Urhobos are insignificant. In fact, he has proclaimed the joke to be on me. have I fed you enough now? |

baby124: Am sorry to burst your bubble but you so effing ignorant... There is a village called orugbo between itokin and agbowa in lagos state... Its an urhobo village. Itokin itself is over 80 percent urhobos... Between itokin and epe there are over 3 other such villages i know of personally... Coming down to ogun state... Just after itele there is an urhobo village that is so culturally attuned to the extent the church signboard read st peters urhobo and isoko anglican church...
