Why should any one care about what the hausa thinks about anybody?

They are the poster symbol for derogatory names.

Stop pulling lies from ur anus. Bayerebe means somone of yoruba descent, bahaushe means someone of hausa descent. Banupe means somone of nupe (niger state) descent, bakateffe means somone of kataff descent (in kaduna state)
The hausas add ba (meaning offspring of) to anyone from any tribe. Iyamiri and lies grin


Shatap dia. Hausas add the prefix Dan to describe where someone is from eg Danborno, DanNupe, etc. Lying to prove points is hallmark of Yoruba debates, tufia

Mmanu means oil, ofe means soup.... meaning oily soup. Because the yorubas like their stew oily and full of meat but igbos were use to soup with no oil and no meat, just leaves and grass and fish bone and crayfiish. Thats why their soup is always mixed with several mixture to hide the lack of meat and oil grin

Ba is used when something is unavailable. Ba ruwa = no water, ba shiga = no entry. FOH

Let's also educate the world about the word 'yoruba'. It was derived from 'bayerabe' an hausa term for captured slaves from oyo empire.

Unlike 'Igbo' in Igboland, The word 'yoruba' means nothing in yorubaland at all. They simply adopted the slave name christened by the hausa and fulanis
That's why you can find prehistoric names like Igbokwe, Igbogadi, Igbonacho in Igboland but yoruba don't have a record the word 'yoruba', it is just a corruption of the word 'bayerabe' which Hausa-Fulani slave catcher gave them during the conquering of their land by the Caliphate.

we talking in d present, ur referring us to pre civil war. no wonder yall still stuck to civil war fake glory, while the igbos moved on, smashing records after records daily


You lack good reasoning
I asked how come there is a disconnect between the physical appearance of pre civil war -Igbo and post civil war-Igbos. Something must have changed in the genes.
Meanwhile, post your own picture, I want to see how handsome you are.
I will take ebonyi Ibos as the closest to what Ibos actually look like

It means " yamiri yam wizard, one mother and ten fathers"
It was coined from the fact that after the war the igbos were so malnourished and poor that their best food became roasted yam ( because they can eat one whole tuber without drinking water ......which is why yorubas called them omo aje okuta ma mumi grin )
Then most of the returnee igbo women were so promiscuous that the hausa believed they had children for several different men..... which is the uwa daya uber gomma

Na question? I asked you mumu. My grandma was 115years of age before she died despite consuming meat and oil. She never had any heart related diseases and she died at appointed time. Why do we read of heart diseases that have killed many of your people. If meat and oil causes that Mr doctor, we should not have been reading about heart failurefrom your side na cheesy. The last time I read about heart diseases, meat and oil consumption was never mentioned as causes.

Before you spill bigotry, try to understand the history of the people you are trying to attack first, otherwise you sound illogical.

The first mentioning of "Yoruba in writing was by a scholar in the 1500s named Ahmad baba al Massufi of Timbuktu during the reign of the Songhai empire in Mali. He used the term to denote the people living under the Oyo empire. This shows that by this time, Oyo had already made contacts with places as far North as Mali.

The term was popularize by Hausa through trade with Oyo, gaining more popularity during the colonial era. Yoruba in the Hausa language simply denotes Oyo. Although, today the meaning of "Yoruba" might be largely lost in context, it still has a slight Oyo undertone to it. Also, Yoruba is not the only term, Yorubas use. Other terms like Olukumi or Anago(Nago) exist as well, especially historically. In Benin Republic, the term "Nago" is preferred over Yoruba. If you, an Igbo were to travel to Ghana, chances are that you would be mistakenly called "Anago" by the Ghanians, simply because you are Nigerian. This is due to the presence and trade of Yorubas in Ghana that goes back to precolonial times.
