I'm talking based on my own experience. I know Yoruba people always think Ondo people to be the stubborn ones for whatever reason but i have mingled with Yorubas from all over and Ondo people seem more liberal to me.

Igboid:
Ondo people marry Edos and Igbos alot. And some of them even look like they were originally Edo, but became Yorubanized in a distant past, especially Akoko and Ose parts of Ondo.


Most Yorubas can't understand Ondo dialects too.
you're right.
I'm from the Ikale tribe in Okitipupa of Ondo. But my family members don't even act or count themselves as proper Yoruba. Right from times past, we've married other tribes. My paternal grand mother was Ijaw, my uncle (my father's brother) married an Edo Bini woman, my mom is Akwa Ibom, my late uncle's father brother) son married an Nnsuka lady.

YOU ARE VERY VERY WRONG. ONDO PEOPLE ARE THE MOST CONSERVATIVE AMONGST THE YORUBA EVEN WHEN THEY ENGAGE OTHER GROUPS/ETHNICITY OR TRIBES IDEOLOGICALLY BUT TEND TO HOLD TO YORUBA TRADITION MORE. THIS IS THE GRANDEUR MISTAKES YOU PEOPLE MAKE . THIS IS THE REASON THEY DO MARRY OTHER TRIBES AS ADDITIONAL WIVES(SHIIINA TO STUPOR). TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT. THEY ARE LIKE EVERY OTHER YORUBAS WHO TALK AND DO AND ALSO WITH FLAWS LIKE EVERY OTHER YORUBAS.

Any Yoruba subgroup that denies or denounces being a part of the race was most likely never Yoruba to begin with, because the common denominator for all Yorubas is the intrinsic inability to loose the consciousness that ties and binds us as a people.

It's the same reason why till today Yoruba descendants all over the world, be it in Brazil, Benin, Togo, Ivory Coast, e.t.c still retain that Yoruba consciousness no matter what (even after several centuries of cross-breeding and race-mixing), are ever proud of their roots and culture, do everything to preserve it, and even flaunt it with it gusto wherever they may find themselves -- I mean really, who wouldn't be proud to be associated with such a renowned race of kings, empires, and achievers?

Therefore any 'Yoruba' person that comes forward to deny being one of us was probably never one of us to start with -- perhaps such a person belongs to an entirely different ethnicity or group that was assimilated into the wider Yoruba race/nation in a distant (or not so distant) past.

That's mighty fine as far as I am concerned because we Yorubas are not so desperate to 'claim' other peoples or form attache by force, usually it's the other way round (like some people I know who are fraudulently trying desperately to super-impose themselves into our rich history) undecided

IRRESPECTIVE OF HIS OPINION NEED NOT DEGENERATE TO THIS LEVEL. LET US FOLLOW THE CORE “OMOLUABI", IDEOLOGY THAT'S EMBEDDED IN US. I APPEAL TO YOU TO SHEATHE YOUR SWORD ON YOUR BROTHER WHOM YOU QUOTED LAST AND IF HE ISN'T YORUBA, LET HIM BE. I AM A PROUD YORUBA MAN AND BELIEVE IN PEACE WITH YORUBA FAMILY MEMBERS FIRST BEFORE ANY OTHER GROUP.
