Christistruth00:



The Awujale himself who told you the Story is of Oyo Ancestry

it was because he didn't like the fact that Alaafin was above him in the Oba hierarchy that he came out with that

pre Oduduwa histrory

The first Awujale was an Oyo Ilari ( Palace Official) who was sent by the Alaafin to Settle down in the middle of two Ijebu communities

that where battling each other over a piece of Territory

Because of the high regard both communities had for Alaafin , neither of them passed the Ilaris new residence in the middle

of both communities to attack the other again

Over the years the Ilari became the recognised head of both communities out of the respect both had for him

That was how the first king of Ijebu Ode came to be called Awujale ( The Settler of the Land dispute)


i would advise you to humbly apply to your neighbours the Igala, Ijaw and the Edo to supply what they know about your History and start from there to compile and truthfully build a Comprehensive History of your People instead of attacking the History of others all day long

it was the Pre Oduduwa Ijebus who were already around Lagos in the 9th Century that the Awujale was referring to as being from Sudan but Oduduwa and his Princes united all those they met on ground

The Ijebus were generally Aborigines that Oduduwa met on ground who later adopted mainly the Oduduwa Princes as their Obas

Almost all their Monarchs descended from Oduduwa




You can continue to lie to yourself if it will make you very happy, I repeat again IJEBUS came from Sudan, I don't even think you know anything about Ijebu-ode apart from what you read from that propaganda history they feed most of you.
I lived there for many years, married there and my children are still there, I am not going to waste my time arguing with you when I'm sure you won't listen other than the propaganda history they feed you about Ile-ife.

There. Is nothing like

THE IJEBU
There are dozens of different Ijebu groups and there was never a time when they were all under the Awujale.
The claim that THE IJEBU Neo not trace ancestry to IleIfe is false
if indeed the Awujale said so he can only speak for Ijebu Ode



Enough of your lies, who do this to you guys ? Ile-Ife, Ijebu-Ode, Ijebu Imosan and the rest are one, maybe you need to be in Ijebu-ode during Agemo festival, you see all these dozens of different Ijebu groups you are talking about are all there with their masquerades representing each villages at Fidipote round about. quit reading propaganda history, I am not omo Ijebu but i know a lot about them and I can speak Ijebu Language grin

Go and seek the help of a psychiatrist. You are delusional.
This brazenly obvious Igbo troll is no doubt the same one who created that ridiculous puppet account called "Razakkk" or something similar, under which he has spent so much effort trying to artificially fan the flames of religious conflict by insinuating there's some sort of Islamic plot to take over Yorubaland. Anyone who spends all his days and nights attempting to sow division in another man's land is clearly in need of serious professional help.

These Igbo clowns are the first to claim someone or other is obsessed with their barren little enclave of insecurity, but they have nothing better to do than start lame troll threads anyone with an IQ above 80 can recognize for what they are.

do not argue like a fool

Ijebu extend beyond Ogun State.into Lagos State
There are riverine Ijebu as well . E.g that have a lot in. common with Ijaw and Ilaje in worshipping water deities
Rather than talking Nonsense why not address my claim that not all Ijebu are under the Awujale of Ijebu Ode e.g Epe and Ikorodu which is even bigger than Ijebu Ode

The claim that all Ijebu do not trace origin to Ile Ife is ignorant. Many do
Whether the Awujale said so or not

If you are Yoruba you would know the role of Ifa as a custodian in Yoruba history.
Ifa is clear it is not just Yoruba but ALL human life started in Ile Ife

My origin is irrelevant as I present evidence which doesn't care about my origin.
The map was published in 1747 and it was made by people who witnessed that era of time, unless you have magical powers to know better than them what you did not witness and which they did witness, you have to change the way you think in order to adapt to reality rather than changing reality in order to adapt to the way you think. Many places which you call kingdom today were either not created in 1747 or were mere villages part of other kingdoms then. You guys in Nigeria have a bad idea of the concept of time, you believe that whatever you can see today has always existed (and in that form)
This guy dared ask me if the precolonial map was costume made for Benin 🤣

Ode-remo (an Ijebu town) was even named after two Ife quarters (Ilode and Iremo). The settlers migrated from those two quarters in Ife. And of course, there is Ijebu-Ife as well.

Epes, Ikorodus, Sagamu e.t.c. are all ijebus as well that trace their ancestry to Ife.

At the end of the day, they are yorubas and that is all that matters.

If you had any brain cells, then you would realize that according to the map, negroland refers to a region spread across several countries which the people of the 18th century referred to as negroland.
The fact I have to give this explanation only shows your total lack of common sense.

I have no inside knowledge to the map, indeed I was not born in the 1700s, yet I have to explain the obvious to a person who has eyes like me and who has a brain like me ... You are basically mentally a baby who needs to be spoon fed.

And now like the stvpid slowpoke you are, you are asking me "who is negroland?". Who did this to you ? Who made you extremely dumb?

Whenever you read the account of the Ijebu people about their origin they usually insist they are not from Ile-Ife, as history presents it.

They always trace their history to Sudan.,

Stop posting nonsense and learn how to separate factual history from political revisionism.

Ijebus do not trace their history to Sudan - Ijebu people migrated from Ife in different waves and settled in different areas. And the last wave was the Obanta one that started the Awujale dynasty in Ijebu Ode.

The whole Sudan nonsense started when the British colonists divided Ijebus into two, with the creation of Remo. And West Africa also used to be referred to as Western Sudan in ancient times.

Ijebus are seafarers - similar to Mahin and Itsekiris hence culturally and linguistically, they’re all similar.

This was good, but you procede to give your own ethno-political revisionism in the next paragraphs. This is a thing I noticed with you Nigerians, you say "don't be a thief" and five minutes later you are robbing a house.

Nobody migrated from Ife, all the stories about Ife are mere ethno-politics with no evidence to back them.
