Perhaps you stop claiming other people and their land...
Perhaps you stop trying to force an identity upon others...
Same applies to Yoruba.

Yoruba= slave
Igbo= cannibal

Bro, you dey ordinary social media you don flex. Take am easy o

When the British were fighting the colonial wars in our region, they did not fight Yoruba, they did not fight Igbo, there were no such countries, they fought Benin !
The British created Igbo by adding many small tribes together in order to better rule over them, the yorubas were politically created as an amalgamation of several peoples but mostly of local slaves (like the egbas) and foreign slaves like the Brazilians.

There is no tribe called South South.
The Southsouth geopolitical zone comprises of a lot of tribes or ethnic groups which include the Ijaws, Kalabaris, Ibibios, Annangs, Efiks, Urhobos, Isokos, Ishekiris, Ogonis, Yalas, Ogojas and Igbos.

Technically there is no tribe called Igbo, the British just added small unrelated cannibal tribes together in order to better rule over them and they used a local word for cannibal to designate them: igbo. Whereas much of the south-south was part of the same Precolonial country called Benin. So technically the south-south is much closer to an actual ethnicity than Igbo or yoruba are. Indeed the bulk of the south-south has a common precolonial origin and a common precolonial leader (the Oba), that is what defines ethnicity.
Also, we (south-south) are not a tribe, we are a people, savages and primitives like the cannibals might call themselves a tribe, we are not savages, we are a people.

The Name South South & the 6 regions we have today was introduced by Dr. Alex Ekwueme at the 1994 constitution conference it was opposed by the North, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar accused Ekwueme of coming to the conference with division agenda, they tried to shut him down, Ojukwu stood by Ekwueme told him not to be scared to push the agenda, that it was a good cause to give the minorities a voice, the chairman of the conference called for a recess so as to calm nerves.

Obasanjo adopted the use of it when he became president in 1999.

The south east have treated the south south as an elder brother would treat a junior brother. They have taken a lot of heat & bullet for them. I have never heard nor read anywhere where the south south showed appreciation to the south east for this singular act & the heat they took for them in 1994 & 2015. All they get is insult from Thier younger Brother.

In your head you are our big brother, and you don't understand how that is disrespectful !?
Historically we are older than you (Precolonial origine).
And look, if you want a friend, then you need to show respect, otherwise there is no friendship.
Never call us your junior brother again !
Also, kindly shove your unsubstantiated anecdote.

Please what tribe are you? Cause south south is not a tribe, so we can begin the conversation there.

Also, it is only in Africa that grown men proudly call themselves a tribe. Notice that the British who created Igbo and dashed out "tribe" nominations do not refer to themselves nor to other whites as "tribes". What type of people have such a low self-esteem that they keep carrying an insult upon themselves and they are proud of it. Imagine someone called you idiot in school and then you chose to change your name and have people refer to you as idiot from there on...
The slaves of the British can keep calling themselves "tribe", on the other hand, we are a people !

It's not mere nomenclature...SW is Yoruba not Igbo, south south is old Bendel and Delta tribes, south east is Igbo...you sound half baked, or just trying to confuse the ignorant.

Please tell me which tribe the Yorubas in Kwara & Kogi belong to.... If ur logic is anything to go by,then their tribe should be NC & not Yoruba.
Be objective. Don't let tribal sentiments becloud ur sense of reasoning.

In Nigeria the geopolitical zones represent where we emanate from, so it's not mere nomenclature. Northerners have North as their zone, which is also subdivided, Northwest, North east etc... people from each zones emanate from that zone, that is where their ancestry lies, and the division is just based on geography, based on location, as per GPS location etc. Your assertion don't make much sense, I will say. Seems you didn't think it through.

Please sir, I need u to answer this question specifically.

The Yorubas in Kwara & Kogi (NC), which tribe & cultural identity do they possess?
Are they not Yorubas as well?

NB: I'm not disputing the fact that they are located in the NC geopolitical region.
If we go by ur logic,it means that they are no longer Yorubas just because they are located outside the SW.
Yorubas in SW are Yoruba by tribe. Their culture is equally that of the Yorubas.
