O boy see write up
the yorubas has dealt with ogu/egun people from the write up.
I think the egun in Lagos and Ogun should be given a state of their own since they are not welcome by their yoloba neighbours.
Chai yolobas are land grabbers.

Even if eguns leave Yoruba, the rest of us will still be more than Igbo's. Igbo's can never meet up with Yoruba in positive achievement, no matter how they try. And that is what is getting them angry. Now, when are you guys going to Biafra? You have dirtied our southwest cities enough. Pls carry your dirty bags to Biafra and turn other parts of your alaigbo to what you turned Aba to. Aba, the dirtiest town in africa

Chai!! grin grin Look at a Yoruba MIGRANT living in Lagos asking people to go back to Biafra. SMH!!! The Egun people are simply asking you MIGRANTS to go back to the evil forest of Ogbomosho where y'all MIGRATED from. cheesy

According to the history I read the Egun was an annexed territory of the Oyo empire. They were protected by the Oyo empire from the from Songhey and Dahomey empire while they pay homage to Oni of Ife.

I wonder when you dumb a$$ oil infected brain will get to start thinking out of the box. Is the issue of cultism only peculiar to igbos? If we're to scrutinize this, wasn't it your tribesman/tribesmen that invented it. It goes on to show how bad, evil and deceitful your tribe is.

You even exaggerated the number just to prove a silly point but I'm sorry cos you ended up spewing crap. Fool.

It is your useless flaaaathead father that is a fool and steupid. Tell your useless father that when you see him next. Yes, everybody is involved in cultism, but your useless empty chest beating tribe claimed it is barbaric and igbomus don't do it anymore. How come it is now reported to have happened in your biafla. Cursed tribe that will perish in the lagoon! And for your info, the number is correct.

which oyo? the one Dahomey women came and chased away?

The truth of the matter is Egun peeps are not yoruba in no regard, they're forced to speak yoruba, my stay in badagry opened my eyes! they speak their distinct language, their culture musical instrument traditional attires are very different from yoruba! it just like saying ibibio are igbos! or Ijaws are igbos! they share nothing in common, most of them tend to understand yoruba to survive, yoruba don't understand anything in their language
They are mostly traditionalists, they are veer peaceful and hardworking!!
Egun peeps look more muscular than yoruba!
Honestly the injustice is too much, you need to see their public schools! if you go to badagry you will understand, infact If I should suggest, they should join their kits and kins in Benin republic!
They also enjoy dual citizenship,
they are mostly uneducated, you will see a young girl of 20 years that can not speak come" and "go" they lack everything I have written something similar about this but, as usual they came and dismissed it!
if you see any of them with yoruba name, then he /she must have adopted the name.
Egun people are culturally strong! ie they are still deep into their culture!!

no one has claimed Egun to be Yoruba, but you seem to think so for reasons unknown to me.

pure egun names are different from Yoruba not all these yorubalised egun of today o

When a Yoruba man don't undastand what u saying they ask you "shey egun lon so ni"? meaning " are you speaking egun",,,why dont they ask if your speaking Obomosho or Oshobo?

The Egun(Ogu) are not Yoruba. Centuries of living side by side with Yoruba especially in Nigeria has inclined them steeply to the Yoruba however they assert their identity as a distinct people. Their territory spans from Southwestern Nigeria to Benin republic up to Togo. They predominantly like to live around or near water bodies.

Am good bro, but I haven't. They are not significant here and they don't speak Yoruba to make matters worse only God knows where they came from
Most speak Yoruba fluently.
Sir, please, say what you need know. Some identify themselves with Yoruba while some do not
. Besides, there is nothing like the real Yoruba. It's just a general term for those who originates in the south western region.
Even among those you feel are Yoruba, tell them to speak their real ethnic language to you, you will see there is a difference
We are all brought under the Umbrella of Yoruba (General term)

They deserve the right to self existence,they say the dont want to be called yorubas,marriage is not by force,since they are denied everything due to them,just because they dont bear names like Tunde,Balogun or Iyabo.....this article exposes the evil of the Nigeria state,you are denied admission to schools or appointments, in the worst form of tribalism known to mankind,simple because you dont have a yoruba tribal name.

And who told you the egun people are not referred to as Yoruba?
When you read some online post, some just generalize and give false impression about a phenomenon

Smiles, even an ekiti man can sell another Yoruba in ogbomosho through his language.
We might all be classified as Yoruba, but each tribe has its own distinct language and Yoruba is seen as the general language.
That's why we are mostly bilingual.


Sometimes, I also don't understand some of the stuff my awori, Ilaje, ondo peeps are saying
And if I should say mine, they won't understand either but we all have a common language which is Yoruba.
