I have read about that as well, that the Ewes originated from the Yoruba tribe of Nigeria.

Even for us the Yoruba of Nigeria, we are not speaking our original language but we are all Ife people and the language of Ife people has changed severally over thousands of years. In Akoko area we have languages that are not Yoruba language at all but they are still Ife Ooyelagbo people.


The people of Bonny in Rivers Nigeria are Igbo speaking Ijaw people. So if the Ewe say they are Ife Ooyelagbo people, no one should try to take it from them. Language is not determinant, even DNA is not the determinant. Heritage is the determinant. Do not confuse them into abandoning their heritage. It does not change them from being Ghanaians.


In any case, we Ife people see all humans as Ife people but many have cut the ties. If the Ewe people have not cut the ties, please let them be. That is my humble opinion.

I wouldn't say we are a sub-tribe of the larger Yoruba group because that implies we are under you.

But we are related to you and were one at one point

But TODAY, Ewes move independently...but we acknowledge we are brothers with you.

what about the ghan ethnic group

If there's any Ghanain tribe I would personally associate with the Yoruba's, it would be the Ga's.
the ga's are closely related to the yorubas

I think being Ewe is like being an Ijebu. We are all under Yoruba umbrella.

Moreover, Ewe people are said to be ancient Israelites.
