congratulations to our southern brother for the elevation may God give him wisdom to serve the people rather than being an instrument for destruction. secondly for those of you arguing the name " Irabor".... the name is 100% Edoid word which is sometimes pronounce slightly differently by the various Edoid tribes for example in Benin there is a saying that " the wrong speaking of Benin is what Esan is made up of" also " an Urhobo man begin to speak Benin when it become difficult for him." this particular name is common among all the Edoid tribe just that the first letter "I" is mostly change among them. if you observe the early obis in Agbor and their palace chiefs, they mostly had Edo names and some of them still retain their surname till date just like this Irabor case the population among Ikas may have been another dialect but the royalty is of Edo origin so don't be surprise seeing an Ika/ Agbor man answering Osagie, Irabor, Ogbemudia, Eboigbodin, Ilahor, Erhahon, Ovia etc as surname because you will agree with me that surname tells a man true origin similar names in Benin are Erabor Okunbor Idubor Osunbor Otabor Ogunbor Ogbebor Edobor Igiebor Esezobor Ozabor etc let me keep it meaning first if an Igbo man says the name is their own let him tell us the meaning so we can be done with this in this case of argument, the different between an ika man answering an Edoid name and an Edoid man answering a Yoruba name is that in the case of Ika Urhobo, Esan Benin etc tribe answering Irabor, Ogbebor etc, it means the same exact thing among the tribe but in the case of an Edo man answering a Yoruba name, it either his father was a Yoruba man or the person is totally a Yoruba person or the parent( Edo) of the child being in love with a particular Yoruba name decided to name his child the said name for example MODUPE( child's name and also Yoruba word) Ozolua ( surname and Edo word) I.e Modupe Ozolua. and no one can argue the fact the surname shows one true origin just like Davido being in love with his mothers name Imade( Edo ) decided to name his child but that does not change the child to Edo because Adeleke ( surname and Yoruba word ) already show the child origin. or again, sometimes among various Nigeria tribes names can be spelt alike but mean different thing because of pronunciation eg EZE means river in Benin but EZE means king in Igbo because I have come to find out that those names have no meaning in ancestral Edo language. So if anyone have any Yoruba name answered by an Edo man let him bring it together with the meaning in both Edo and Yoruba and you will also tell us if it is the person surname or his name 4 Likes |

Etrusen: THE BENIN U TALK ABOUT IS ALIEN TO THE LAND. BENIN PEOPLE ARRIVED IN THE 12TH CENTURY AND STARTED WAR IN THE AREA, BEFORE PROCEEDING TO INSTAL AN OBA OF BENIN, WHO LATER SOUGHT TO EXPAND INTO OTHER AREAS, WHICH INCLUDES AGBOR BY IMPOSING KINGS ON THEM. THE REAL NAME OF THE CLAN THAT OCCUPY IDU LAND ARE THE IGODOMIGODO. IF U SAY, U ARE BENIN, IT MEANS U ARE FROM ILE IFE. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yVmUHuLMsw 2 Likes

gozzlin: In politics, a figurehead is a person who de jure (in name or by law) appears to hold an important and often supremely powerful title or office, yet de facto (in reality) exercises little to no actual power. Cambridge definition: figurehead definition: 1. someone who has the position of leader in an organization but who has no real power: I meant what I said, in the schemes of things CDS has little powers, he can't dictate to even his own Arms tackles of other Arms. He is not in charge of the 3 Arms. I hope you understand now, no be insult, it's the reality. |

It is irritating, the tribalism debates going on here. Someone was jut appointed defence Chief and what we ought to have been concerned about is his competence, yet some are arguing his state of origin and wether he is Igbo or not, Southern or Fulani... Haba, shouldn't our major concern be his past performances is his various capacities in the times past? It is a thing of concern now that every topic on Nairaland is quickly turned into a debate on whose tribe is better or worse, or whose tribe is more favored or not. Nobody cares about competence anymore Nigerians, wake up!!! |

Etrusen: You forgot to add, in bini side side of Edoid group, Irabor is pronounced as Erabor.. I wonder why people argue blindly.. The name clearly proves he is of Edo origin.. He may be born in Delta and maybe his father, but his grandfather or prior ancestors relocated from Benin to Agbor.. 2 Likes |
