According to the Biafrans (as pronounced by "Junior Moses" Elewon Kanu cheesy), that makes them Biafrans. grin

How are they Biafran, they brought the mode of dressing to Niger Delta which the Biafrans Copied. We are all Nigerians.

The Itsekiris were the people who actually started the Blouse and two piece wrapper mode of dressing.
From them, it spread to other parts of the NIger Delta, and later, the East.

What is they hear? It is an indisputable fact. Look at the style of the blouse, something about t looks distinctly "unafrican", and that is because it came from Europe via the high-Seas.
Same thing can be said about a lot of the fabrics, such as the george wrapper which came from the Portuguese, The long sleeved shirt worm by the men called the "Kemeje" from the portuguese word 'Camisa', which is now worn throughout the Niger Delta, etc

Goodboiyy:


oritsefemi identify with Yoruba more than Itsekiri.. I think he his more Ilaje than itsekiri

@Scholes0 write about Itsekiri/Ilaje relationship na.. I would have done that but I don't know much about Ilaje .
As a pure Ajegunle boy wey Oritsefemi be, it is easy for him to identify with Yoruba more if truly his mom is Ilaje. There is a far more higher population of Ilajes than Itsekitis in Ajegunle. They dominate JMJ Tolu area wella and that is Oritsefemi's zone. He used to (I don't know if he still) frequent Maraccana Tolu.
