Guestlander:


Even though you are lying, we understand your juvenile and dumb attempt at stirring up a tribal fight.

Uchasa:

I said what I said based on the average Yoruba man greedy attitude in dragging what he didn't work for.

Some Yorubas claim some parts of Edo are Yoruba land,but they are wrong!!!! No inch in Niger Delta belongs to you thieves!

You guys are blinded with our oil that's why you want to claim any ethnicity in the Niger Delta that has little similarity with you guys.

You guys should be contented with your 6 states and your cocoa,even the oil rich part of Ondo state is Ijaw land,so leave them alone.
Stay away from our oil and learn tell your people to be hardworking!!!
Edo is not Yoruba!!!!
Itshekiri is not Yoruba!!!
Illaje is not Yoruba!!!!
Ijaw is not Yoruba!!!

God777:


Stop talking nonsense, you are making we yorubas look foolish

GreaterFuture:

Ogun is the god of Iron and metals, not god of thunder. Also the God of The hunters and the Blacksmiths.

Unclekayfarms:

Maybe you're the one that is

Ustec:


Ogbeni, Go to ado-ekiti and hear things for yourself.
Benin's are Yorubas just like ondo people.

God777:


You are acting like an illerate continue

Unclekayfarms:

You're still describing yourself

9jakool:

Edo is not a major oil-producing state in Nigeria, so I don't know how this is about Yoruba greed of Niger-Delta oil. An average Yoruba commoner is not an oil baron and the actual oil thieves hindering progress of Niger Delta are more than united regardless of what tribe they come from. That's where your attention should be on.

You are just bitter and I don't know who hurt you. Identity cannot be imposed as long as there is free will to reject it. Yorubas don't have to "claim" Edo State to be apart of the Niger Delta as Ilaje in Ondo State are also apart of the so-called Niger Delta. But, on the matter of claiming parts of Edo State (I'm not talking about Akoko-Edo), there are some spillover Yoruba villages in Ovia NE and Ovia SW local governments near the border Ondo State.

Now we are talking! Is this your point all along. Yes Yoruba are so blinded by the insubstancial oil found in Edo State that's also disputed between the Binis and Ijaw. Does that even make sense?

Actually Yorubas are native to 6 states in the SW + 2 states in the NC + the border villages in Edo State, so making a majority in 7 states and a minority in 2 states. You saying Ilaje is not Yoruba only contradicts the point you are trying to make. Here you are doing Niger-Delta attache by force with Ilaje people who have not expressed any reasons to indicate they are not Yoruba.
Also the oil in Ondo State is offshore and the only coastal LGA that can claim the offshore oil in Ondo are the Ilajes.
I hope you can heal and find happiness in life because you sound very bitter in your post.

Revolva:
Yoruba is the son of Oduduwa (Ekalerdahan ) a Benin prince who married an igala woman after he escaped on exile up above the river niger in after settling in idah for a while and later migrated down and found the Yoruba kingdom in ife

You have to reason why igala language and Yoruba language are very similar

It's because their mother is igala and the mother tongue influence made it possible for that

Housing:
Go and read history, Benin is part of Yoruba. Early political history proof Benin to be part of Western Region.

Iamgrey5:
This map is absolutely a fiction of imagination of someone and inaccurate

The Ado had not arrived Lagos at that time

Ilaje was never under Benin empire rule at any point in its history.

And Oyo ruled over Ketu and Abadomey at that time.

Alaska90:


I told you to differentiate between influence and being under empire

There is nothing in history both written and oral to suggest that Benin was directly ruling these places in this map

They influenced many place for example Owo culture of beads

Balogunodua:


After your ancestors have been disgraced by TAO she even made you her rag..

TAO11:
A dumb question as is to be expected.

Monarchy is homegrown in Yorubaland. We are princes and princesses. We have an interrelated system of kingdomS, not just one simplistic kingdom.

The actual issue you should really be pondering is as follows:

Benin Kingdom is only one simplistic kingdom, yet it fought a 32 year long war against itself from 1689 to 1721

In fact, during this war against itself, Benin city was grounded, sacked and reduced to a mere village.

Etrusen:
so Igbo is one kingdom right?

TAO11:
Anotherre dumb question from a dullard.

What’s my business with that? Go and ask an Igbo person how things were run in their time.

I was simply exposing your “dullardism”

Etrusen:
[s]this really expose your continuous lies on half scripted message to suit your own argument. keep on lying and insulting yourself since it is gives you joy in argument[/s]

Nikiballer:


How you take know,na dem tell you....

No dey bobo us for here

MSGAMBLE9:
there is an OAP bearing Wale Ozolua (Beat fm) and no be intermarriage na Edo boy thru and thru

Etrusen:




Oga check or ask question properly you will see that guy didnt get his name from Edo

MSGAMBLE9:
from Edo? What do you mean..Wale Ozolua is a confirmed Edo boy, both his mom and dad ( a lawyer) are Edo...he is the station manager of Beat fm ibadan not an obscure personality, just type the name on google pls

Etrusen:




read my first answer again

MSGAMBLE9:
Are you saying he is from Akoko-Edo? Maybe a 39 years old man doesn't know his lineage then

Etrusen:




have u check for what I ask u?



and for knowing of lineage

its possible he dont know his origin irrespective of age my friend.

but

this our proud Benin descendant called modupe knows her origin

even if her name sound Yoruba but her ancestral surname don't lie

MSGAMBLE9:
One thing you dont know about Yoruba ppl is that they are very proud of thier Lineage, even those in Kogi, kwara, Cuba etc.

Wale speak Yoruba, huasa and igbo fluently buh always refers to himself as Edo-man.

He is a popular OAP and easily accessible on twitter and insta

May we live matter jaree!

Etrusen:



my dear the Edo man he talking about is referring to the state ....Edo state.

nothing more

Meninmen:
[[s]quote author=emmasege post=96853888]It's an incontrovertible fact that Benin Kingdom emanated from Ile-Ife, so it's not surprising that they share many things in common.

As a matter of fact, Edo and Delta are more of south-west than south-east. [/s]



Benin Kingdom wanted from Ile-Ife? Trash talk. Go learn your history well.

Etrusen:



so Igbo is one kingdom right?
