Boudiccao: Let me help you with pictures Both pictures represent Ifa and Afa divination objects. First is ifa, second is afa. Do you see similarities? Now yorubas have reliable sources and evidence on the how ifa started. Reports on how Afa originated in Igbo land inisist that traveling medicine men (Dibias) who came from other places brought it with them. Yorubas have been practicing ifa centuries before Nri, Arochukwu or independent igbos settlers even settled. Now do you get the drift? 4 Likes 1 Share

Now this is a theory of mine. Could the traveling Dibias have brought the god name orisa with them to igbo land? The orisa responsible for ifa is orunmila 3 Likes 1 Share |

Denn: This doesn't prove anything. Ifa and Afa is a West African divination system that has similar patterns across board just like I already mentioned. Nobody can claim to have originated it and gave it to others. You can't claim what is indigenous to West Africans with no specific source of origin. 1 Like |

Boudiccao: On the contrary. Other people in west africa recognize the ifa canon. Igbos well versed in Afa also do. It is you who is knew to the subject that is refusing to comprehend what even UNESCO has accepted. And that is the main issue. You simply can’t accept that the almighty igbos could have influence from other tribes in their ancestral development. Everyone contributed to everyone. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Denn: You are very funny. Even the Ooni of Ife said they met Igbos in Ife when the Yorubas first came to Ife. We are that old. But you want to believe such an old people with population to match, borrowed an essential culture as our divination system from Yorubas? Do you realize how insulting and provocative these your claims are? No Igbo well versed in Afa recognize any nonsense link between Afa and Ifa. Stop these ridiculous provocative claims already. 7 Likes |

Denn: That is mere linguistic expansion. Igbos are surrounded by different non igbo Niger Congo groups and words were going to have cognates on different sides. The Igbos that lived closer to ibibios, Ijaw, igala etc will end up sharing similar words with them which over time got into the central lexicon. |

Denn: Other people recognize it because it is overhyped in Africa! Other peoples belief system are put at the back because of obsession with Ifa which is hyped and elevated above others that have the same system in West Africa with no specific origin tied to any group. |

Ariani: First, you claim there is no relationship whatsoever between ifa and afa, i showed you the relationships with evidence. If you have verifiable sources to debunk my claims and that of authorities on this, please help us all and bring it to light. Claims that are backed with evidence become facts 2 Likes 1 Share |

Boudiccao: It's not even same thing. It's just a mere coincidence that Orisha( this is how Yorubas pronounce it with "sh" )rhymed with Orisa which is but a dialectical variation of Olisa. The origin of the words are different. Orisha in Yoruba has something to do with head, as head means "Ori" in Yoruba. For Comparison, Head is "Isi/Ishi" in Igbo. But Olisa in Igbo is a contraction of the sentence "O li isaa", meaning : "what is greater than seven", or "what drowns seven". In Igbo cosmology, the number 7 is very important and considered the highest number of the men realm. Once something exceed seven (Isaa) in Igbo cosmology, it is assumed to have become metaphysical. People are believed to reincarnate 7 times on Earth before they moved to different spirit realm in Igbo religion. That's why in Igbo fairy tales, when some one has to go to the spirit world, we say " Oga fe ofia isaa (asaa) na mmli isaaa(asaa) , ruo be ndi mmuo" Meaning he crossed seven forests and seven Rivers and got to the spirit land. "Oli isaa"(what is beyond the 7th) is the representation of the metaphysical in Igbo cosmology and spirituality, that's how it also came to represent Chukwu/Chineke/ Chiokike/Obasi, because this being is recognized to be a metaphysical being that dwell in the spirit world that lie beyond the number 7. Bottom line is that the similarity in words between Orisha in Yoruba and Olisa in Igbo are mere coincidence, and they are not even pronounced alike, as both words when broken down to their meaning in both languages,have different meaning and origins.

Denn: Which verifiable source told you Ndiigbo borrowed our "Afa" from Yorubas? I have asked you to post the excerpts here. I recognize Igbo and Yoruba language branching off from the YEAII (Yoruba-Edo-Akoko-Igbo-Igala-) common ancestor eons ago. Hence few word cognates among members of the family. No one borrowed from any one, they just retained original shared ones before all diverged. 3 Likes |

Ariani:lol look at this ignorant delusional IPOB. Benin Kingdom was made up of many quasi-autonomous kingdoms whose head pay traditional respect to the Oba. Uromi was the military head of Benin kingdom. They already had access to Portuguese weapons as far back as during the reign of Ewuare in the 14th century one of the main reasons Ewuare and Ozolua ran circles around all neighbouring cities up to Ghana. There are still ethnic Ẹdos in Ghana today called Ga. The Benin invasion was done by Africans in the South African protectorate down to the Niger protectorate. The brits remained in their ships. The first time 250 British came they were butchered. As for human sacrifice there is no tribe in Nigeria that was not involved in human sacrifice. The death of ikemefuna in Achebe's book, was it copied from the practices of the benins? Britain vs Old Benin one on one Britain would lose 99/100 |

Ariani: Orisa is the spelling in yoruba. The S has a marking that makes the pronunciation sh. Orisa is pronunced Orisha in yoruba. Orisha (god or deity) is different from ori (head). Similar sounding/spelt words in yoruba usually have no relation whatsoever. Examples below Oko represents husband, farm, hoe, stone, penis, vehicle, etc Orisa (pronounced orisha) is orisa and it means god. In many other climes, the same orisa means god ( spelt or pronounced slightly differently) If traveling Dibias brought ifa from yoruba land to igbo land, it is very possible that they brought the name of their deity (orisha) with them. 1 Like 1 Share |

Walkee: More fables. The first 250 British people that came were not prepared. They came without official royal backing, and there was no war self. You just rounded them up and butchered them . That doesn't count as part of the Bini expedition as it was not officially sanctioned by the British crown. The official Bini expedition lasted for just over 1 day. You were not worth shishi. How can you withstand the British when you have one fat lazy man who bleeps his brain out everyday with many wives , take decisions for you, since you are incapable of thinking for yourselves! And this ineffective archaic system of Government that the world had jettisoned is what you want to compare with the water tight highly sophisticated democracy of council of elders, age grade leaders council, council of Chief priests of deities, market women council aka Omus, council of title men( Nze and Ozo) and council of married daughters of the land, aka Umuada, that all sit in a round village square and debate on crucial issues and then appoint titular temporarily head of the council for the time being? You lots are mad. The affliated groups to Oba Bini were not free men. They were inferior men and stooges with no power to make decisions of their own. That's why immediately the British captured the Oba who tried to negotiate his freedom with silver and gold, the spinless enogies and affliated groups to Oba had to bow too. There was no resistance. Your village Monarchical system is defective and the ease with which the British brought you under colonial rule in a day proved it. In contrast, the Igbo representative complex democracy proved superior in stopping a colonial force , because there was no particular all powerful head to decapitate. The power resided with the people and whenever an acting head was decapitated, another head was quickly appointed. 6 Likes |

StainlessG:I remember my Ika acquaintances with the names Onyebuchi and Onyema who can't wait for the opportunity to explain to me how they are not Igbo. Of all my days in Benin and few weeks I've spent at Agbor, I've never seen an Ika man that Identifies as Igbo. I also have one acquaintance from Onitsha Ugbo that share the same view. To him they have no single thing to do with Igbo people. He was the one that told us one of the Funniest thing I have ever heard. That there is a difference between Igbo and Ibo. That they are Delta Ibo while we are Igbo. So no need for you to change peoples encounter or the way Ika people see themselves with mere 13 lines post. Fun fact: an Igbo man feels more secured at Gombe than Agbor. Ask around. It is more dangerous for an Igbo man to stay in Agbor than Osogbo. Ika is not and will never be Igbo. 1 Like 1 Share |

Denn: There is nothing like that. Yoruba religion is over hyped by those obsessed with it especially since it survived amongst descendants of slaves in the new world. Over time, Yoruba religion has come � represent the go to indigenous religion of sub-Saharan African to lazy folks that don't want to read about the existence of other West Africans so I understand why supremacist like you make this sort of claims to malign others.

Exponential101: The British suffered for 5 full months to bring Arochukwu under control. And it didn't even end the there. They had to fight other groups in Igboland too. They didn't go Scot free. They lost resources and humans. It's not bragging, we are stating the fact. We are not a people with village Monarchical system who take pride in one fat lazy man with multitude of wives rulling over them, yet couldn't resist Colonials for more than 2 days. It's pathetic! Since some of you will not dey your dey and leave Igbo alone. It's time we tore your fragile egos built on fables and fairy tales apart. 7 Likes |
