What language do the other Ilaje people speak if some speak Yoruba?

oturugo:
A variant of Ijaw and a variant of old Bini.

Ilaje44:

I will never answer such a foolish question. I am not here to say my state is this your state is that. My case is ILAJE should be let alone, not the ILAJE in my state should be let alone. The Ilajes are native to 3 States in Nigeria namely:

1. Ondo
2. Ogun
3. Delta

I can be from any of the above. I really dont care. Leave Ilaje matter alone.

STFU!! Do ijaws even have a language, or a culture? All I see are Ijaw men in hats and walking stick.

oturugo:
You are the crazy one as the poster actually described you early in his post. Andoni is a Kalabari town in Rivers state but majority speak Igbo, but this does not make them Igbos. I know you have not been to bauchi state but those who have or served there will tell you that there are some commun ities there that are not hausawa but do speak hausa. The two examples here typifies Ilaje.

Please show some respect to the Ijaws as they have always respected the Yorubas.

LOL, Andre Uweh! Don't mind him. We have loads of characters on NL, I tell ya!

jason123:

Sir, I really have not been butting into Ilaje matters. I am Itsekiri myself and I allow Ilajes to deal with Ilajes while I simply talk about Itsekiris. Anyway, have fun and welcome to Nairaland.

Beware, people will try their very best to make you lose your temper (as you can see from this thread)! . . . Good luck!

STFU, Igboman

Speak kalabari here let us hear

bittyend:

Respect to the lousy Ijaws?? Hahahahahahahahahaha... Ijaws don't respect nobody apart from their fishes...

The question is do they have a culture - other than paddle canoe and get drunk?? I may add militancy to their culture.

Ilaje44:
If at my age and my exposure I become enraged by the lies and inuendos of frivolous faceless individuals on a forum like this, then I would need to hit the school of mannerism again. Anyway, wo se oma Ishekiri. Se wo le fo Edekiri?

alj harem:


Shut up, Kalabari in andoni don't speak Igbo, where did you get that from

The groups that speak Igbo in rivers can be Opobo and even at that, some are going back to their Ijaw language again. Don't start this dumb lies here. I am not as ignorant as some others here, I know Igbo history through and through and the more you talk about others the more I know Igbo mentality.

Kalabari DON'T SPEAK ANY FORM OR IGBO

What does dubu mean in Igbo because it is something in Kalabari and infact dubu means the same in yoruba

ebaa or baa mean in Igbo ? you care to answer Baa means tomorrow in both kalabari and yoruba

A yoruba man would say O di baa, which means "see you next time/tomorrow"
You are a very useless man. I did not say Andonis are not Kalabaris but said that a very large proportion of Kalabaris in Andoni speak Igbo. I have been there. You should be chatting with the OP who insulted you at the beginning of the thread instead of attacking me. Beast of no gender.

What does Iro mean in Igbo ? In kalabari it means false/lies same as yoruba

I can keep going on and on. stop lying to yourself here. Mumu

Andoni people are not Igbos but Kalabaris. However, Igbo is widely spoken in Andoni but that does not make them Igbos. Same applies to Ilaje and some groups in the north who are not Hausawa but speak hausa.

alj harem:

Then if you are yoruba, you learn to respect others as others have respected you. We do not insult others just for the sake of it. You should be able to know an Igboman from an Ijawman.

An igboman spit fire at anything yoruba, whether split, oil, etc he just want the downfall of the yoruba

An ijawman on the other hand is more reasonable and tries to make bonds rather than break it.

Go check Ijaw history, I have a lot as my friend from Opobo to balysea. I know them and their mentality.

They are live and let live people. It is the Nigerian government that made them the way they are today. They are no trouble makers unless of course during land expansionism[b][/b]

Ilaje44:

I see, so you are trying to insult my intelligence and integrity as an Ilaje man isnt it? Anyway, if you knew what you were talking about, you would not have written such a cataclismic blunder. Where have you seen Ilaje people speak Ijon? If whenever an Ilaje speaks Ijon, he speaks it as a second language. We have our own Dialect and there is a meaning to our name too. Dont blab about what you dont know. You are sure to find more Ijon speaking Ilaje than the other way round by the way.

bittyend:

Hmmmmm... It's probably the Ibo blood in Asari Dokubo, that's making him act the way he acts, huh?
