Humans are discussing here and a pig is grunting. So iboes are the one you can trust and not backstab you? Every osu pig looks for any opportunity to vent their frustration at the great Yoruba nation.

historyworld031:
Do the yoruba have any such things as Duke, prime minister ? Do you have titled men whom are not kings (because I was told that Ibadan has more than 20 kings).

historyworld031:
If the word alafin doesn't mean king in your language then chances are that the alafin never was the king of your people.
If the word ooni doesn't mean king in your language then chances are ...
Is my reasoning too complicated or can you understand me ?

You simply know nothing!
You binis are very funny and hard learners.

Oba is a Yoruba word which was adopted by Bini for Eweka since he was the son of Oba of Ife ( Omo Oba Oranmiyan), the Ooni. So Bini that used to have Ogisos now gave Obatala, Obalufon, Oba Eledumare - Oba to ba Lori oungbogbo to Yorubas?

You're just a revisionist like your fellow binis with little brain for research but insults and arriving at kangaroo submissions.

Safe yourself the stress and ask a Bini that understands Yoruba language the meaning of Oba in Yoruba. You don't simply deserve reply any more since you people believe 7 local government areas overshadow and wiser than over 177 local government areas. I only pity you when Nigeria will divide and Igbo and Ijaw will subjugate Bini once more; we can only guarantee save passage for Omo Oba ni Edo.

Continue!

Who is stopping you? Go and take over Ekiti, Ondo and Lagos States! Whereas, you own no single plot in Ondo that shares boundary with you but Yorubas owns lots of miles in your 7 LGA! Ekiti has nothing to do with Bini than in the past when some princes of Ife (in whom my Great-grandfather was included) were looking for land to settle, move to Bini area and later returned westward and settled among the Ulesun people of Ekiti. Ekitis fought Bini expansionists to a standstill just the way they later fought Ibadan. Ekiti, the smallest Yoruba state, with 16 LGAs, is more than double of your small Bini of 7 LGAs with less than 40% Bini population in 2 Ovia LGAs.

You don't deserve reply at all because your behaviour online is the worst I have seen, even than that of @historyworld031! This gives you up as a kid with little intelligent contribution but insults; and I will not accord you with one reply again. Bye, Bini revisionist, you can assert your energy on Ijaws that are coming for your little igodomigodo.

Look at the useless reply you typed and look at the post you responded to , now you will see you are an illiterate

Lool wtf is Bini?... Is dat a specie of ewedu in your fathers backyard?

We talking empires here.... [b]Keyword: cut across ethnic divides

GuidoVanRossum:


Yoruba land? I won't give a total no for that. But majority of us aren't Yoruba in any way. Yorubas do give a lot of bleeps. That's why they easily categorise all of us (including the Binis) as Yorubas. Although this is a political gimmick to claim population. I remember that since the days of regional government, we distinguished ourselves as mid-western. We've been distinct ever since. You lots just don't see it

I'm sorry this has turned to unintended tribal war. I made a post on this thread, maybe you've read it. I and Redoil are from the same village. You can see that his argument with mine tallied. Scholes and ezanafe who are from Ibillo have had their history told to them by foreigners. However, I must state that the yoruba influence in Ibillo's history is very high. Their streets have yoruba names. However, their language, culture, and style of worships is so Edo. In Ibillo, almost all streets have a shrine house and they will be the first to wake you with their bells every morning (uloku agbe), this is similar to the Benin way of worship which I've never come across in any Yoruba land. Their dialect is heavily derived from the Benin. When they speak, nobody will tell you before you know this language is edo, even though we don't really understand each other deeply, the way they speak is understandable to the rest of the edos. Let me give you this expo, if someone is speaking Esan beside me, I will immediately know it's Esan and if I listen attentively, I will be able to pick one or two things and arrive at a possible conclusion on what he is saying. Same with the okpameri language, same with the umas. Ososo and Okpella, jatuu and auchi can pick one or two things that each is saying. Truth is, edo language is real, but our fathers have deprived us of opportunity to have a universal edo language by allowing the Yorubas to enforce their language on us during the regional government era. The history Ezanafe and Scholes are depending on is a recent not well articulated history, a percentage of Ibillo people agreed that they originate from Benin, why another said they are from Ife (these other groups also think Benins are from Ife anyway). Now, in Akoko Edo, Ibillo language is highly similar to about 22 other villages known as the Okpameris and a lot of these other villages don't agree to the fact that they are Yorubas.

Pig! Did you read the post I responded to?

scholes0 :

Are you saying you know the people of Ibillo, Ikpeshi, Isua, Ogori ,Imeri, Lamkpeshe, Ososo, Etc more than the people themselves?
If you have been through the area, you will know that these people of Northern Edo/North-East Ondo (AKOKO/AKOKO-EDO) are Yoruba, with some Edo influences.
Each group in Akoko and surrounding areas have their own language, one town can have one language/local dialect, but the general language and predominant culture in the area is Yoruba.


ezanafe :

You are some how right that Aiyegunle which is part of Akoko Edo speaks Yoruba dialect. In other words they still have their own self developed and spoken dialect which is different from Yoruba


Ibillo is part of the greater Akokoland, although politically they are Akoko-Edos. Yoruba culture is predominant in this area and a dialect of Yoruba language is officially spoken in this area. So, it is logical to categorise them as part of the Yoruba commonwealth.


Sir, Ibillo's official spoken language is Ibillo. But truly Yoruba culture is predominant in the area. Thanks

scholes0:
True, The local dialect spoken in Ibilo town is Ibilo (Okpameri) - but It is gradually fading away to Yoruba influences. Many of the Younger generation cant speak it anymore.
How can we preserve the local dialects of the area?

redoil:


one thing i am very sure of is that the people of akoko edo speaks more than 20 languages and which Yoruba is not part off. The fact that the people of akoko edo have decided to assimilate and associate with Yoruba people, culture, and language for easy access to trade with them does not make akoko edo people more or less originated from Yoruba land.

scholes0:


The people of Akoko Edo are very fragmented, just like the peoples of Akoko proper. Almost every town have different languages and dialects, but speak Yoruba as a general language. And it is not for trading with Yoruba people but rather, trading and relating with themselves..
Between Isua Akoko (Ondo state) and Ogori Magongo (Kogi state) for example, you might come across up to 20 languages and dialects, how else are they supposed to communicate with one another.
Culturallly speaking the area is at the boundry where yoruba-Edo and Ebira meet, and the people theselves are a mixture of all three, with Yoruba ancestry being dominant.

I asked a friend ( who always claim to be a yoruba) who asked his father, the response was:

Akoko-Edo is a nodal area with different languages but edo culture (not language) is dominant. there is also the presence of some ebiras. The presence of Yoruba language and culture is due to proximity to akokos and influx of Yoruba businessmen. Although some areas( which was not stated) claim to have their ancestral origin from Ife.

Thanks GuidoVanRossum
I have my own opinion of Akoko-Edos

U remind me of d name we use to call Yorubas in d 80s in Lagos.We call them Pigs bc they r dirty smelling n hardly bath.

GuidoVanRossum:


Thanks for your time. It's great discussing with you. As for your last statement, I hope this opinion of yours does not generalise the akoko edos as Yoruba? We have some Yorubas in the lga but majority are of edo origin with heavy edo influence.

As for the bold, I am an Ososo and I'm telling you about my people. I have renewed the historical research of the origin of Ibillo people because of this topic. I will drop my findings when we (I and an history graduate from Ibillo) are through. Happy Sunday

historyworld031:
I am wondering how far you went in your education.
You are confusing several things.
If you want to talk about kogi state then dive into an other topic, an other page.
If you want to talk about delta state then go to an other page as well.
We are talking about EDO state.
I am giving you details about the EDO people and their history.
You could also ask yurself why we had "Bendel" in the past and not "Edo-delta".
