Aigbofa:This sort of brainless thread has been extensively flogged in the cultural section. This is not the first time this rubbish thread has been created by the OP. It should be confined to the waste bin. |

Just for the record, Itsekiri people have Ijebu ancestry. I'm Ijebu and I can understand Itsekiri "language". The word "itsekiri" is actually a Yoruba word for "itinerant" or literally "walk about" They migrated from Ijebuland in days of old because they were itinerant traders and picked up words from the Igalas, Isokos, urhobos and all the areas that they encountered due to their trade. |

Beaf: I remember watching some FOX News and other American TV News presenters wondering aloud on TV about Goodluck's name after Yar' Adua's death. They were amused to hear a name combo like "Goodluck Jonathan" I was just SMH thinking; dem never reach Nigeria's South South before, dem go hear unique combo-names tire My Delta people don capture Oyinbo names remix am finish. Names like; General Boyloaf, Oyiborhoro Allwell, Kennedy Clinton Goddey, <<-- That's another President in the making |

Beaf: Aigbofa: Kilode?!: LMAO. Why not name your son Cheddar, Toothpick, or Ghana-Must-Go too On a serious note, I really wonder about how this trend started. Have they been doing this for a long time? Or is it a recent phenomenon? My Ijaw friends here have pretty ordinary, African-sounding names. Or western names. Not Heineken or Coca-Cola |

This thread gives more aid to the defining movement of our brotherhood. Itsekiri were wondering ijebus who settled in today's delta state so many years ago. Urhobo, isoko and Olukumi are also our kin. No one is tagging them as Yoruba but we should also note that the only true Yoruba are Oyo...the rest are only called so because of our bond with oyo. Ekiti, Ijebu, Okun, Urhobo, Edo, Esan, Awori, Olukumi etc are all members of one family. And we are suppose to be that way if not for the despicable politics of Nigeria |

Beaf: A lot of the words listed are Isoko and Urhobo words as well. So? lol Beaf: ^I hope from 2011 till now you have acquired more knowledge on This matter Itsekiri are share more than alot with other tribes to the West(Yoruba tribes) Even itsekiri language is Yoruboid, infact it is Ijebu language reformed |
