[size=18pt]Aburo mi razist, dont worry. As you can see, the boy is without shoe today, he is sure gonna be the president of Nigeria 2morrow. We have a precedence case. MY only concern is that he does not become as slowpoked as the present occupant of that office.[/size].

ilaje seems to sound a bit like owo dialect [re:the first post].

One_Naira: Am I the only one that noticed ilaje44, did not answer Beaf question of where he is from? and am also the only one that find it weird that Jason was quick to find his facebook account or so we were told without him giving out information of himself. Am I the only one that find all this weird? I suppose so. Well e no concern me, so I don't care. Na my only concern is I hope una haven't taken the NL craziness and id craziness and moved to facebook, because that website na my favorite place. Biko, don't f2k that place up for me. Biko nu!! Bikokwa nu!! I am on my knees begging for am. Bikokwa nu!!

Indeed, we are quite related to the Ijebus. The historical migratory pattern as has been passed down to us implies that the Ilaje migrated from "Ufe". We do also had some Bini influences too, as we also have influenced Bini. For instance, we also call "àgban" kokodia and sometimes in an exclamatory remark do say "Orisanobua". We are really very close.

BTW, my paternal grand mother was from Ifan. If you are on FB, and you wish to be friend, check out "BABA-ILAJE".

[size=28pt]Ofcourse they do. That thing the Yoruba call "Aworinwon" or "alegba" is HOLY in their land. If you kill it, me lady, that one na big yawa o. Acording to their tale, it is their forbear that turned into that animal, which helped their ancestors to cross the river. I bet beaf does not even know his history. And he won to dey tell an Ilaje man who him be.

BEAF, now you are talking. That is a CORRECT Ilaje man. A question for you though is, did you asked the BBC for copyright permission before you used that photo?

OK, I guess you did not ask. It is not new. WAYO dey unna blood anyway. Abeg no forget those white cloth and ogogoro if you dey go village this year o. You got to go worship some lizards, so that the gods would make UDUAGHAN repent. Do omo me![/size]

PhysicsQED: Iguana reverence was not unusual in certain parts of Nigeria in the past. Other groups held the ram in high esteem, vultures, snakes, etc and all over the world certain cultures held certain animals in high esteem. I can understand why Ilaje44 would be mad or annoyed with Beaf for the insulting pictures he's posting about his people, but people should desist from denigrating traditional Isoko religious beliefs just because of their beef with one poster, especially considering that their own people may have had beliefs that look strange or unusual in modern times.
