That does not make them less Yoruba!

Dumaknesset:


For real! So it is no longer one's father nativity that determines ones nativity, it is where one has travelled to and returned from. Double hail for your logic.

Dumaknesset:



That does not make them less Yoruba! Same should apply for Louis Mbanefo, he is also not a native Ibo. Can you imagine there is now native Yoruba and those that are not native. This one weak me.

Okay!

From the name mbabefo...It's is purely an Igbo name and from my village in Anambra

What's the meaning of Wellington and savage in Yoruba

We just want to straighten the facts before they will distort the history

It does,you can't be counting on freed slaves as native Yorubas while you ignor our own freed slaves like Olauda Equiano and numerous others.
Mbanefo was born and bred Igboman likewise Akanu Ibiam.

Dumaknesset:
He was born in Sierra Leone to an ijesha father, his elder brother is Oguntola Sapara, fact that the man decided to use Williams does not change is nativity. Sapara is the father's name.If your analogy does not apply to Louis Mbanefo for bearing a Louis it should fail for Sapara Williams. Last time I checked Louis is not an Ibo name. Take away Sapara Williams next ten after him will still be yoruba.

Dumaknesset:


The aforementioned professionals were born abroad, returned home but you Played Equiano didn't, he died a freed slave in foreign land.

laudate:


I told them that Sapara was a Yoruba name, they didn't believe me. They said it was Creole. Even me that I am not a Yoruba person, I can see that it is not an English name.

paramakina202:
Tell us wetin Sapara mean in Yoruba lang.

Oxtonguy:
But I have something to tell u, work on ur english, cross 9ja bridge to c things in the west, learn factual things about our Lagos, and stop deceiving urself

paramakina202:

laudate:


I will tell you, after you tell me what it means in English or Creole.

paramakina202:

Does that take away his nativity as you claimed earlier?Give us local Yorubas who were not freed slaves,those freed slave can even be Igbo or from any other ethnic group.
Btw there was nothing like Nigeria in 1800s.

paramakina202:
LOL...I never said its English or Creole.

paramakina202:
Quote-The first Yoruba lawyer Christopher Alexander Sapara Williams was called to the English Bar in 1879 whilst the first Igbo lawyer, Sir Louis Mbanefo, was called to the English bar in 1937. Again the first Yoruba medical practitioner, Dr. Nathaniel King, graduated in 1875 from the University of Edinburgh whilst the first Igbo medical practitioner, [b]Dr. Akannu Ibiam, [/b]graduated from another Scottish University in 1935. Again I ask, where did the ignorant hypothesis of the backward Yoruba race who needed development by the superior Igbo race come from? For the sake of our generation and posterity we need to teach factual history and not just cook up some rooster and bull ego-centric concoctions as facts. The attitude of recycling long tales steeped in empty arrogance should be discarded before you miseducate your kids with fictions.
All those names are not native Yorubas but freed slaves while Mbanefo and Dr. Akanu Ibiam are native Igbos.

laudate:


Oh really? Were you not the one who said: "All those names are not native Yorubas..." I simply pointed out, that one of them was a Yoruba name.

Adedapo Kayode, FFK 's grand father was called to English bar in 1922 after graduating from the one and only Cambridge university. By that time mbanefo must be in a diaper if at all he has been born at all.Now that is a native name, chew on that, Mr. nativity.

paramakina202:


That is more like it Mr. claim claim.

loopmongoat:
Bad belle people of the waste wont stop making us laugh
Even a blind man knows that lagos was developed by all nigerians
Lagos is a no man's land

CertifiedFreak:

Imagine having to travel long hours by bus to develop a "no man's land"

Dumaknesset:


Do you know an kitoye ajasa was called to English bar in 1893, by that time Louis mbanefo 's mother was still unborn.

Dumaknesset:


Point of correction Sapara Williams was not a slave and there is no way you can get a formal British education without travelling out of Nigeria. Slaves cannot be called to the English bar. Where did Mbanefo study? Aba ! shey? Nuff said.

ariesbull:

Williams was a Creole descent and no a Yoruba...

That's none of my business....What I wanted to clarify is that those names are not Yoruba names but Creole names and they aren't Yoruba
