Firstly That is just stupid. secondly aren't these countries just modern day boundaries. Yoruba's are found in both Togo Benin and Nigeria. they lands are found in this places. This is just like a thread where a delta guy I think Isoko was saying that Delta Igbo's should go back to the east because they were forcefully moved to delta LOL Stupid.

Yoruba ancestors were very adventurous so the empire emanated from Oyo and extended throughout West Africa to include Benin, Togo and even some parts of Ghana. This is surprising to people whose ancestors were lazy like the Yibows. That is why the ONLY geographical legacy they have is 5 landlocked erosion gully ridden potorpotor states.
