prolog2: You just keep exposing your dullness. Not all chiefs are nobles. As far back as Bible times we had kings and chiefs. So calling Queen Elizabeth (a female king) a chief is the height of stupidity. And yes, not all kings wear crowns. They are called Baale in Yoruba land. Who are you to tell Yorubas how to name their nobles |

Viergeachar:^^^^^ ^^^^^ ... Yes I now remember the guy from the thread you talked about. I don't know where the guy get's the negative energy for typing unverified facts from... he must be on some kind of cheap synthetic steroids. How can he say "Oba" is a word of Bini origin when Oba Ewuare 11 himself said in his speech that Oranmiyan was the first Oba of Bini followed by Oba Eweka and that he is the 40th Oba in the Oranmiyan/Eweka Dynasty. Some of these people just don't read functional historical books and articles! That is how one revisionist goon [after smoking weeds or something, embarassingly went about falsely claiming online that Ibos are the aborigenes of Abeokuta and that Ijebu-Igbo are Ibos and it went viral. I agree... and I have known this since the early 1990s that there are similarities in a few words in Yoruba and Ibo, but this is CLEARLY as a result of the Igala [A yoruboid language with direct links with Idoma language as well] influences on Northern Ibo groups like the Nri who have Igala ancestry among them in Enugu/Anambra axis, etc. Infact the current Attah of Igala His Royal Majesty, Dr. Michael Idakwo Ameh Oboni, said his Igala people came partly from Wukari[Jukun] in present-day Taraba State and merged with a significant group of Yoruba and Bini people with some Ibo. ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~ Is the oracle consulted to determine the person that would become the king from a dynasty? When the coronation ceremony starts properly in Idah, they will go to the burial ground and carry nine Ifa priests in the night, and all the priests would stay and do their divination to see how the Attah’s reign would be... Would you mind telling us the origin of the Igala people? "Talking about the origin of the Igala people, a sizeable group migrated from Wukari in Taraba State from where they came to Benue along the River Benue and continued very close to the confluence at a place called Amagede by River Benue and slightly down from Amagede downwards to Idah and they settled there. And there, they met a sizeable population of the Yorubas and the Benins and to some extent, some Igbo. So the migrant population from Wukari merged with them and produced a language called Igala as a people." Source: https://punchng.com/im-first-attah-in-igala-history-with-one-wife-ameh-oboni/ Published August 26, 2017 ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~ Words such as Ifa in Yoruba and Afa in Ibo, Okuta in Yoruba and Okute in Ibo, Egungun in Yoruba and Egwugwu in Ibo, Ewure in Yoruba and Ewu in Ibo, Akuku in Yoruba and Okuko in Ibo, Ewa in Yoruba and EGWA/AGWA as beans in Igala and Ibo... could ONLY have found there way in through the Igala landbridge separating the Yoruba/Igala in the present Kogi State, and Anambra/Enugu states. In actual sense, Ijebu-Igbos say they migrated from Ijebu-Ode, while Abeokuta was settled by Egba immigrants from Ibadan... with Owu migrants as well! These guys don't even have a comprehensive history of their ethnic groups and just try to STEAL other peoples' histories. From my knowledge of history, Yorubas don't practice osu, kingship system, the cultures relating to marriage, inheritance of property by children, style of dressing at the turn of the century [Ibos were dressed half-nake.d while Yoruba were fully clothed and made quality cloths and textiles for several centuries and had a powerful Oyo Empire while the small tribes that made up what is now Ibo were in small republican settings] and more, clearly show that there is NO direct ancestral link between the Yoruba and Ibo.
