Wetin be your own

Stated the obvious fact. I have deltan roots and I affirm his facts.

Datazone:
Ijaws are not native of warri south LGA. Apart from the Ogbe-ijoh market that they are trying to claim. Name any other ijaw settlement in warri south. I'm waiting.

You're very daft.. who owns Warri South LGA?

Ayetoro is a Yoruba word for life is better

Ayetoro is popular name of town and villages amongst Yorubas.

You don't even need to read another meaning to it

Well explained

Sunshineg5:
Bruv, they are actually the only coastline dwellers in Ondo up until some parts of Warri

Historically, Ishekiri and Ilaje have very similar origins and share borders at Warri North.

The coastal domination of Ijaw starts from the Benin River down to some parts Warri North, to Warri South west all the way down to Kalabari areas of Rivers.

your counter-statments seems to be well articulated, so I will make a brief search and get back to you, whether to counter or affirm your claims.
modified:
looking at the map you presented, Ose Odo LGA is almost at par Illaje. what do you have to say regarding your assertions about being the only coastline Tribe in Ondo state when Ose-Odo as a Local govt is situated in the Coastline.

Sunshineg5:
Don't mind them

Ayetoro is the closest community to the river in Ondo.

What is Ayetoro in ijaw language

I can't deduce exactly what Aye means in Ijaw per say, but I can tell you toro means water or coast, sea, but it has to do with water like other names like, Mein-toru, in delta l, Akoku toro, Asare Toru in rivers. next?

Fatimaade:
Sorry biafrans Lagos is still yoruba land if you want show Fulani community in Lagos

You seemed to have nightmares at the sight of biafra to an extent that you would involve them here when they're not the subject of discussion. talk about Ijaw, I'm Ijaw and not a Biafran or Igbo. counter me directly with facts and don't go and drag others.

Sunshineg5:
No single Ilaje speak ijaw

Not a single one !

The llaje local government area and Ijaw use to be in one local government area until the Ilaje pushed for their own local government separate from Ijaw and the two was separated

Ilaje are the Coastline dwellers in Ondo state

I'm not rebating the fact about Ilajes being Coastline dwellers in Ondo state. but the question is thus are they the only coastline dwellers?

I have excused one man here after confirming him to be desperate for attention. seems like he wants to engage me when he's in no intellectual position to do that.

Sunshineg5:
Map of Ondo

Abi Shebi you have two good eyes

Some Ilaje speaks Ijaw, as reported by the link i gave you.

Wait oooh bro... you mean to say the man that sang that song is from Ondo state?

Sammy07:
any of them should come here, I'm waiting

Only lies are invented. the desperateness says it all. I excuse you.

Sammy07:
Na wa oooo.
Someone telling me where I know.

Did I forget to tell you their Oba name is a Yoruba name

Benin king has an Oba means the throne And the king are Yoruba.
Cos there is nothing like Oba in Benin lexicon.

Sorry someone said I shouldn't take you serious bye bye.

Do well to tell that to a Benin man.

Tunde835:
Don't mind d guy I told him im ilaje nd we ar Yoruba not ijaw but he's still saying Yorubaland is landlocked dat d coast belongs to d ijaws

You are not Ilaje. if you're one, check here and edit your statement https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ondo_State

Sammy07:
Lol
You just shoot yourself
Cc: Sunshineg5

You're not from Ondo state at all.

1. It's spelt igbekebo not gbekedo.

2. It's one of the biggest town in Ese Odo local government

3. Their Oba is Yoruba and they speak Yoruba.

4. I've lived there b4

Yes, Arogbo is "Formerly an Ijaw town", in Ese Odo LG, they have been Yorubanized now. Cos they speak the language and have their names.

If you check above, I initially state that there are still some communities that are Pure Ijaws and don't speak Yoruba and they have Ijaws as their king.

I told you earlier that Ijaws are migrants / settlers in Ondo.

They cannot secced with their brothers in Niger delta cos they are surrounded by Yoruba towns and communities so they can't carved them out.

Okay?
Bye bye.

Bearing Oba as created for political reasons don't make their leadership as the Obas. in the Delta state, we have Kings bearing Eze as their title, it does not in anyway make those Kings Igboic Kings? in Benin, d King answers Oba, does that mean he's a yorubanized King? we still have Agadagbas in Ondo states nevertheless. you're just desperate oga. no point.

Gbekebo I meant to say and I can translate the meaning Ijaw meaning to English language even as an Ijaw from Delta state.

Sammy07:
They are speaking Yoruba
Tho some of them speaks both Yoruba and ijaw

Their names are Yoruba names, some of them still have Ijaws names.

Their dressing and culture are now Yoruba tho some of them retain their cultures.

What else could they be if not Yorubanized Ijaws?

They're not even closer to water as Ilajes, they're found mostly in Ese Odo local government.

despite your rumblings and forcely classifying them as yorubas, the undeniable facts still remains that they are Ijaw and that can never change even with your yorubanized mission. about names and dressing, oga don't deceive yourself. if you're closer to the Ijaws, you would know that Ijaws are not tribalistic with name-given. even in Nigeria, we are the only tribe with most foreign names. They can give any name that pleases them, it has nothing to do with being converted or that. in Rivers, we have Ijaws bearing Igboic names. that does not mean dey av been igbonized. see there is one prominent man called Barister Ajuwa in Ondo state, He's seemingly bearing a Yoruba name, but he speaks Ijaw eloquently than most ijaws in Delta state. Karinto is an Ijaw High life Musician from Ondo state, I have heard so many of his songs, and I can tell you, nothing is missing as Ijaw in them. oh as for the names, I forgot, even my Surname 'Afrifa' is not an Ijaw name but a Ghanaian name. I'm bearing it in all my documents. does that make me a ghanian? about the dressings, ask Tacha who is Ijaw but dresses like Ibo. ooh too far, ask Aunty Bisola who bears Yoruba name but Ijaw.

Sammy07:
If you can't answer this question pls don't quote me again.

Are you from Ese Odo local government?
Or Ilaje??

If yes, pls list the communities that speaks Ijaws and their local government

How can a knowledgeable person ask such questions?
I have heard so many Ijaw songs from a Prominent Ijaw musician from Ondo state with the name Karinto. he has mentioned noteworthy ijaw personalities from Ese Odo and Places like Gbekedo and Arogbo.

Sammy07:
If you can't answer this question pls don't quote me again.

If yes, pls list the communities that speaks Ijaws and their local government

if you have better term to acknowledge the Ijaws in Ese-Ode, Arogbo e.t.c other than your seemingly desperate "Yorubanized" term, I could answer the questions.

Sammy07:
So you don't know what Yorubanized, Igbonized, Fulanized mean

If you don't, then don't quote me again

Bro, no offence, but from my observations here, you're not sound enough to engage me on any meaningful argument or discussion. So, I'll advice you to excuse yourself from this thread if you have nothing factual as counter-statements rather that your pathetic deperate *Yorubanized* line..
thank You.

WeneDiali:
I be rivers man. Ala-Ahoada to be precise. Where are you from?

I'm from Delta state. Ogbein-Ama of Bomadi LGA. It's so fascinating that I have learnt a lot from you and other factual persons in this thread. the Deputy Governor of Ondo State is from Kiriobo and the word "Kiribo" in my native Ijaw term means Farm. Also, from few research, I can affirm the assertions to be true.

Sammy07:
Ode.
You don't know my state more than myself.
Deputy Governor of Ondo state is Hon (Barr) Ajayi Agboola Alfred. He married an Ondo girl. He's from Kiribo in Ese Odo local government.


Western Apoi tribe of the Ijaw people live in Ondo State, Nigeria. The tribe (also called Ijaw Apoi or Apoi) consists of nine settlements: Igbobini, Ojuala, Ikpoke, Inikorogha, Oboro, Shabomi, Igbotu, Kiribo and Gbekebo. The Apoi inhabited higher ground than most of the other Ijaw tribes. They speak the Yoruba language as they no longer speak the Ijaw language . They are bordered to the north by the Ikale and to the west by the Ilaje. The clan also shares border with the Arogbo Ijaw to the south and the Furupagha Ijaw to the east across the Siloko River.


What's your next statement
I told you earlier that they have been Yorubanized.
Go and speak Ijaw to him if he'll understand
Cc: Sunshineg5

Pathetic Oga��. I just read your whole analysis. and it still ended on your desperate "Yorubanized" claims. oga, you failed to affirm the statement of fact that the deputy governor of Ondo state is an Ijaw Man. just rumbling with no direction rather than the usual "Yorubanized" claim. how pathetic���

Sammy07:
I came to the thread late though.

Ijaws are found in Ese Odo and some part of Ilaje.
They've been Yorubanized self.

The Deputy governor of Ondo is from Ese Odo LG not Ilaje. And he's Yoruba.

Look how desperate you sound. they are yorubanized? lol. bro how can you yorubanize another tribe like the Ijaws? do you mean Ijaws bearing Igboic names in Rivers State have been Igbonized?

Sammy07:
Stop listening to radio biafra and stop smoking weed.
Tinubu is from Osun Ambode is from Ilaje in Ondo Sanwoolu is From Lagos.
Ijaws in Ondo state are Settlers not indigenes.
Theyve been Yorubanized

Go and Adk Kingsley Kuku and Prince Idolor.

Sammy07:
Stop smoking weed bro.

Ijaws are not indegines but settlers and migrants

on what basis are you making these statements as a knowledgeable person?

Sammy07:
Stop smoking weed bro

It is not weed bro. I just confirmed his statement. the Deputy Governor is Ijaw.

Odingo1:
Go and read your history, stop taken yoruba propaganda hook and sink.

Ijaw people are the first people to occupy the river-line area of Lagos followed by Egun people from Togo/Benin Repulic and finally Ilajes and Aworis. Yorubas migrated in droves to lagos after the British conquest of Eko in which they defeated the Bini Kidgdom and renamed it Lagos(the name lagos mean dustbin in portugese language from where they derived the name) and allow the migrant Yorubas to have upper hand because the British want to weaken the indigenous people from resisting British rule in lagos.

There no indiginous yoruba person in Lagos. All of them migrated from hinterland to lagos. Tinubi is from Osun. Ambode is from Ogun. Fashola is from Ibadan. Sanwo Olu is from Ondo. All yorubas in lagos are migrant and they know that.

Na Wao

sageb:
did i say anything with regards to ilaje. I only inform you that there are ijaws who are indigenes in ondo state. worthy of mention is kingsley kuku, omoyele sowore and the deputy governor of ondo state.

Very True.

Sunshineg5:
You see why university education is important

Apoi and Arogbo ijaw are the only ijaw group in Ese odo local government area of Ondo

Sarowe is Arogbo ijaw.

Ilaje trace their orgin to ile ife.
