The Yoruba Jews are at it again. Macof and PAGAN9JA let's see what you make of this.

Of course the OP is wrong. The reason Ijebus are called Jebisites is merely a joke. People just wanted a cool thing to refer to them as

bigfrancis21:

even the op knows he was joking, let him go ask his Oba, the Awujale

I support Ijebu state
Okun state should be actualized too, Okun state should be the priority

macof:

Has the Awujale changed his position on the origin of the Ijebu people? The last time I looked into the issue, he was saying the Ijebu came from Wadai in Sudan.

Ijebu women love Juju too much.
Ijebu women=Juju women

Radoillo:

well, he said the last migration into ijebu area, which his ancestor Obanta led was from Waddai and I haven't seen anything to suggest Awujale retracting that statement
But wat about the first people of the land ruled by Olu-iwa??

Lmao @ the delusional hyperbole about being the largest ethnic group in Nigeria and other stuffs.

We've achieved a lot as a people, we don't extra stuffs.

We're warriors and merchants, and everywhere you find wholesale money to be made, you'll find an Ijebu there.

Proudly Ijebu and the Duke of Ijebuland!

utter nonsense

The OPs "facts" are not accurate. More like conjectures.

maclatunji: The OPs "facts" are not accurate. More like conjectures.

kindly quote those you are not content with.

The Ijebu are businessmen and women, so they are usually wealthy. It is because of this that the Ijebu are envied because they can afford the good things of life. If you see anyone who speaks ill about the Ijebu, it is because of inferiority complex, the Ijebu are the best crop of people you can find around.

Mind you! Am a typical Oyo woman but we need to call a spade a spade
