Central Yoruba wasn't created, it was only adopted.
Central Yoruba were used From Oyo to Lagos, to Osun to Kwara and Far away Togo.

Investigative:

Jaja of opobo
Major business is palm oil
He fought British for it
Hence this document also shows that eastern region are major producer of palm oil
Do you know who control eastern region
Also
Oguta
Itu
Aro
Are all igbo Territory
The Ngwa people and Ibibio engaged in Palm Oil trade too
Ngwa and Ibibio people too.. Because Jaja didn't want them to trade directly with the Europeans..He wasn't in good terms with them as they didn't give him room to monopolize the trade
All do you want me to tell you that ugwuta now known as oguta are ijaw territory

History can only make sense if it goes side by side with anthropology and archaeology. It has to be traced, tracked, observe and proven for it to make sense. Understanding the past helps to illuminate the present and the future.

Investigative:
These were Igbo currencies before the foreigners introduced their own.

It is called "okpogho". The whiteman tagged it as "bracelet manilla"

Another Igbo word for it is "ego igwe" (iron-money)

Iron is smithened to form it. It's of different types. Each has currency discrepancy.

What do I mean? They measure the high currency base on different factors. It could be the weight, the design.

When someone is rich today people will say: "o nwere ego igwe". It is because of this currency. Or you will hear "o nwere okpogho/,okpogo" (he's wealthy)

The other one is ego ayọrọ (cowries). The Igbo migrated from okpogho to ego ayọrọ. It served as money. You exchange goods and services through this.

The word "ego" became prominent following the introduction of coin and paper money.

There is a town in Ezeagụ, Enugwu State called Okpogho. The town is known for producing Okpogho currency. They were like CBN.
