More rants of idiocy.

Learn to make sense in as few words as possible

1. A historian is not a mere story teller. A historian gathers information, analyses and interprets them to reach a conclusion on their authenticity and signifance


Time and again, you have failed the litmus test of the qualities of a reliable historian you alluded to in the above with impunity.

This definition did not described you, neither did you apply the techniques you alluded to anywhere in this post, its antics after antics to deal with your true "subject".

Therefore, you copied this definition online and cannot live up to its standards. You will always aspire higher but naturally gravitate to the core of your character.

You are a fraud.

You are recently asked to cite source to support your "Bantu common identity" instead, you switch to "Lower Guinea" from demographic clitche to regional geography.

How is switch between regional and demographic alternatives historical?

How stupid to make your knowledge of "Lower Guinea" as alternative to "bantoid" a validation of your erudition? Sometimes, responding to you can be embarrassing.



2. The Bible does not mention the Yoruba people... That is what I said . Clearly you are too dumb and I should have used an extra sentence to explain that the people not the name was meant... Should I have meant the name "Yoruba" it would have been clear enough by use of quote marks
I still wait for what parts of the Bible Yoruba people are mentioned and with what names

The Yoruba folks were organized into city-state like other early cultures of old. There were place names that the Yoruba folks brought from Canaan land to West Africa.

Ijebu: this is the original name that Jerusalem was known by and the English equivalent of this is "Jebusite".

Shagamu: this is another name of a place in the vicinity of ijebu, known as Shechem or Sakmu in the Bible and also the armana letters.

Ohori: here were the original inhabitants of Edom. The English equivalent of the Hori is the Horites as you have it in the scriptures.

Ketu: this is another place name among the Yoruba donated by the Levant. In the armana letters, it's Qeltu (Keila). In Yoruba, we say ketu-kena-fe.

Sabe: the Sabeans as were known in the Arabian antiquity dwells among the Bedouin at the onset of time. With them the Mecca origin of the Yoruba pertains.

Iba: the Iba is Yoruba for Eber, it's the Yoruba Hebrew heritage. The group in this bracket include Ife/Oyo and Edo, perhaps the largest company of the emigration.

Edo: this is equivalent of Edom, better known as Ado with the Yoruba. The Edomite Yoruba adopted 'Olofin" (Aluf) as the title of their leader. It could also mean levite.

This was how the Bible mentioned Yoruba people.

It identified them at their original homeland, the people traveled and kept their original identity and invoke the same in their new home.



3. Countless scholars (yes, so many I value it as countless) have stated the Bible is not a proper historical source and only take stories from it seriously when confirmed by better measures to gain historical knowledge like archaeology, art history, palaeography and general measures of source criticism
Scholars like William Dever, Thomas Thompson, Lupovitch Howard, Adele Berlin etc


You are a born fraudster. It would be great knowing what you do for a living: you hide information from sight in an incredible way that keeping sensitive materials at your disposal would be dangerous.

You spoke of "countless" with boldness, whereas you have no input in the countless contributions to the task, not brilliant enough to share a piece of the uncountable.

Yet what you claimed is not a proper source is consulted by about four disciplines that cut across pure science and the arts.

That acceptance reverts such fields to pseudosciences at best. It shouldn't be an accredited field of study that validates its findings with improper material.

Earlier, you claimed Bible could not hold in the face of proper history, but the proper history has suddenly vanished from sight.

And another thing you don't know is that the ethnicities of Senegal, Gambia and Mali are all Niger - Congo as well so what's your point?

You don't have father or elders even if you don't read books? You don't know through acculturation from living in Yorùbáland certain things about Yoruba?

Where did you post this? I must not have seen it. Your reasoning there does not hold water. If I saw this post when it was first made I would have set you on the right path.

Lagos is the only place Eyo is observed. It has a major and principal Orisha called Adimu. People wrongly call it Adamu Orisa but its true name is Adimu, and is short for Adimula. It was introduced to Lagos from Ibeju by Malaki and Ejilu, brothers to Olugbani, wife of Oba Ado.

Should we say because Eyo is not observed in other Yoruba towns the apparent history of Adimu to Middle East is fake? The cult of Bilikisu Oshugbo is only among the Ijebu, no other Yoruba practice it. Does that negate its ties to Midlle East?

In fact Malaki and Ejilu are the pairs of Malachi and Elijah. Olugbani is Luban (a Semitic female name, the male equivalent is Laban).

These are not coincidences! grin

You literally have no contribution and knowledge. I'm yet to find one, just one point of fact from you

Is it Magogo is Gog and Magog that is the knowledge I'm using? What nonsense knowledge

While you're at it you could also say Abuja is Abidjan
Damn fools... You are too intellectually lazy that all you do is look at words that look alike with no recourse for meanings or etymology
And that's what you call knowledge? Damn! What a slowpoke

The idea of Kehinde being senior to taye is very different from esau and Jacob
While esau remains senior to Jacob, Jacob only took the blessing of the senior later in life (a Jewish centric narrative, that I'm sure the Edomites would have disagreed)
But Kehinde's seniority in Yorùbá starts from inception, with Taiwo sending Kehinde to go and taste the world

And you call yourself Yoruba but you don't know this? Fake Yoruba
