Igalas And Itsekiris Are Not Yorubas by TruthHurts1(m): 7:24pm On Jun 19, 2021
Actually,all the languages spoken in the Middle Belt, the South East, the South West and the South East belong to the same language family, known as the Niger Congo Language family.

So in other words, all the languages in the Middle Belt and the whole of Southern Nigeria had a common origin at some point in the past.

This differentiates them from the Hausa and Fulani languages which belong to a completely different language family called the Afro Asia ticket language family.

However this does not necessarily mean that they share a common genealogical origin.

Belonging to the same ethnic or racial group is determined by a different set of factors than linguistic affiliations.

Therefore there is no phenotypical evidence to support the claim that certain ethnic groups originated from larger ethnic groups.

Yorubas are not like Biafrans. They are not forcing anyone. Unlike the Biafrauud Nnamdi Kanu, once Proffesor Banji Akintoye sensed their was no uniformity of opinions amonst the Itshekiris and the Akokos, he urged caution on the part of Yoruba agitators. Yorubas are not expansionary unlike Igbos. They have even set a high bar for the Yorubas in Kwara and Kogi must meet to be part of Yoruba Nation. Whereas the Igbos want to drag people who barely tolerate them and hardly can stand them into Biafrauud. Yorubas are Omoluabis.

There's no need of disturbing oneself as Nigeria is not going to divide.

Did the op tell you he is Biafran? You rush into talking without thinking. You can't even tell when someone is baiting you with d divide and conquer tactics. What concerns any Igbo person at the moment with igala or any other tribe wanting to join Yoruba?

None of them addressed the issues raised by the op. They are cursing him and bringing Igbo into the matter instead.

The Oni of Ife had a hand in the Kingship tussle of the new Olu of Warri, that Itsekiri guy. Don't know his name. That should tell you a lot.


The north used Obasanjo, who is a traitor and a northern slave, to remove itsekiri, warri, and co that were part of the old mid west, and where under the western region. All things being equal, Itsekiri is a Yoruba tribe just like egba, awori, ijebu and co. They'll definitely be with Yoruba nation. Just so you know, Opc exist in edo and Delta states.
