maynation:Ile-Oluji speak a dialect that is almost similar to that of Ondo and that confirm the Ekimogun link. Odigbo town, Ajue and Araromi Obu also speak a a variant of Ondo dialect with minor difference. They are also aware of a history that confirm their Ondo root. Ore has many settler and Oyo, Osun, almost outnumber the combine presence of people of Ikale, Ilaje and the Odigbo indegene. Your wikipedia account is very questionable as it omit Odigbo town, Ajue and Araromi obu. |
maynation:I think I should ask you if you read through the poster argument. He wasn't claiming Ode Aye as Ondo territories but said Ekimogun( Ondo) kingdom extended to it's boundary. You need to understand that historic link and better substantiated by similarity of language. There are Ondo dialect spoken by communities beyond Ondo town. Many of this community are in Odigbo local government. Yes, after Odigbo local government are core Ikale towns of Ode aye, Irele and Okitipupa. Between this boundaries presence are Ikale settlement and you can find this like Lafe, lowo, Ogbe and the rest. This are villages that link Odigbo to major In Ikale town. The dispute with Araromi is also as a result of this settlement. Remember that Araromi Obu is a major indigenous town in Odigbo local government. I think this border dispute should be handled with caution. Lastly the comparison you drew with Lagos political system is irrelevant. Lagos is largely a metropolitan area with little indigenous influence. Ore is almost taking the shape of Lagos but the Odigbo people still fight to exert their political dominance. The post of chairman has been occupied by the indigenous people for years but with the growing influence of settlers and foreigner, this is being brought to question. The current deputy speaker of Ondo house of assembly member, Hon Iroju Ogundeji, is an Ikale man who practice his politics in Ore and struggled to get an assembly slot. He is one of the only Ikale man to have held elected office in that local government. |
membranus:The poster isn't claiming Ondo dominance of Ikale land. In fact, Ikale that I know are land grabber who want to claim territories around them. Ondo influence extend beyond Ondo town and that is undeniable. This is evident in the towns that like Odigbo, Ajue, Araromi Obu where a variant of Ondo language is spoken. I'm not an Ondo man but an Ilaje who was brought up in Ore. The Odigbo still sell land in Ore and it's environment extending to Ore alaba. |
maynation:Your source is questionable. Ikale can't lay claim to Odigbo local government. I reside in Ore and I'm an Ilaje man. Why is the polical office in this constituency still occupied by the so-indigenous people of Odigbo. The indigenous people which the poster claim were part of Ekimogun kingdom comprises of Odigbo town, Ajue, Araromi obu. Even Iroju Ogundeji, an Ore resident and an Ikale man from Okitipupa became a member of house of assembly member after riding through storm and with the backing of Mimiko. The information on Wikipedia explain why people sometimes question it's authenticity. It is subject to modifications by authorize person but this could result in distortion. It listed the town's in Odigbo local government while excluding Odigbo town, Ajue and Araromi Obu. This is the base of indigenous people who claim ownership. Agreed, their are minor dispute with the neighbouring Ikale but this does not result in conflict as Odigbo people don't extend their influence to Ikale territory. |
maynation:The poster understand the basis of his argument. Odigbo local government has indeginous people who speak variant of Ondo dialect. The are also have historical ties to Ondo city, although Ore which is the head quarter of Odigbo local government has a large presence of Ikale, there are also other settler like Oyo and Osun in overwhelming presence despite having no indigenous root in the state. The land in Ore are still being sold by the Odigbos. Ile Oluji is also a neighbouring local government to the Odigbos and they speak a dialect that is almost similar to Ondo kingdom. The Idanre are likely related to Ekimogun too as reflected in their dialect. |

irunoko:That is your own believe. In most civilized part of the world, parenthold is earned. People switch loyalty to whoever assume such role in their life. That is why a young boy or girl changed their surname to their step father's once they divorced mother remarry. |
Vortex369:If you are trying to enter poetry competition, you don't exploit a public display of your folly as stepping stone. A rudiment class would have fared better. As it is now, You pass no message other than ungarnished and uncensored exhibition of tomfoolery. |
Angelfrost:Why the much Ado about this guy writing. He has passed his message across anyway. You expect someone to expose the dark and difficult side of his life and still expressed it beautifully. |
irunoko:Davido don bribe this guy, a swear. You disown your mum, good and fine! But you don't necessarily bring it to the public. Get wisdom young man, it is your dirty linen. |
Vortex369:Why are you guys pouring invective on the son and calling him unprintable names rather than correcting his mistake. The man isn't the first person to severe tigh with his parent. There is obviously no love lost between him and his mother and the young man gave genuine reasons for the acrimony. His action might not be perfect but then, it's his private life. |
I know Akeredolu will lag behind in implementation of Amotekun. He only makes mouth. Despite being the chairman, he's always come second in taking steps. He'd even politicize recruitment into amotekun with his sales of form |

Sheriman:There is nothing to lie about the photo. It is an aerial view that bring a wide scene into focus. However, the lack of government impact and poor infrastructural development in Ore is huge. I'm an Ore resident too. I grew up here. A populous town that is witnessing a rapid surge in dwellers and settlers, yet little facility to meet the growing demand. Untarred road runs across the streets of Ore. It's so bad that when you move around in a bike, you are covered by dust. Two public school in a town with population that compete with many city. My old secondary school is almost in ruin due to government neglect. |
Eagleboney:Aerial view always have more effect. Besides, it's a panoramic view that converge wide scene into a single focus. It is not necessarily the work of photo edit. Modern camera adds beauty too |
goodyvin02:Olamide is a versatile singer. He could dwell on rap and sing it like foreign rapper. He is someone who just like to incorporate varieties, so don't underrate him. |
Officialgarri:Nigerian Shiite ain't getting any sympathy from the US. That is why Buhari government had successfully carried out brutal measure on them. No group had suffered inhuman treatment in Nigeria like Shiite, but is the Buhari Sunni sect not sympathetic to Boko Haram and other terrorist organization? |
Smartchoiice:Do you mean Oshiomole left her mother's womb and went straight to politics? We place undo priority on certificate while neglecting the essence of it which is intelligent. Is education only defined by university degree or PhD? Same people who praise Wike for vaunting repertoire of academic qualifications will turn around and say university degree is meaningless. Whether Oshiomole has university degree or not, he has displayed intelligence attesting to his literacy or are you telling me he has no secondary school certificate? |
Eastlink:If you are not familiar with Soso as a Yoruba word, it is only because you don't understand the language. Soso meaning only is a commonly used words and it has appeared in song. Haven't you heard Asa song that say, Iwo, Iwo nikan soso- You, You only |
Eastlink:So your claim to ancestry in Jamaica is down to few words like Unu, Soso. This can be likened to coincidence. Soso also means only in Yoruba and Akara is generally known throughout the entire south west. You can't claim language similarity by pin pointing few words. There has to be a coordinnated expressions that bear similar meaning. So many words coincide around the world. |
BiafraIpob25:Igbo and their desperation to dominate and lay claim to every good thing albiet through dubious mean. The evidence provided in the Jamaica claim isn't rich enough to validate Igbo ancestry. The few similarity in pronunciation can't be divorced from coincidence. Such coincidence exist in many language. When it comes to pread of influence to remote region of the world, Yoruba are unrivaled. The evidence is so glaring that an unadulterated Yoruba is still being spoken by a large section of Brazil, Cuba and some South American country. Even the culture are still retained in their original form. Yoruba gods and diety are also identified in these region. You see them worship Obatala, Sango, Yemoja etc |

[quote author=Frankdoz8 post=86681978]Many Caribbean islands have good number of Igbo race. I once meet a Dominican woman of Igbo ancestry. |
Audio wedding everywhere |
[quote author=six6prax post=86615257]wow, Chinese people invent good things too. I hope they are able to defeat the corona virus. Which good thing Chinese people invent. Just name one. Chinese are good but they are still up upcoming in technology. |
Welcome to the era of bad music in USA |
Yes, the male housemate are all Igbo and few south southerner. There is no denying that the show organizer is an Igbo man. The audition was really conducted in Igbo language. |
[quote author=fairfora post=86223304]The only sensible comment I've read here this morning. Many do not seem to understand the likely consequences. US has said they would not support them after Brexit. Again, the technological know how is owned by the Germans. Many companies have moved out of the UK and the latter depends heavily on them to live. Agricultural produce coming from the EU through the Calais port would now be very expensive due to taxes and other charges. That is not all, what of human resources ? To hire a professional from the EU to continue the existing task wouldn't come cheap. I think the UK is as selfish as ever. I asked a Briton during the heat of the Brexit on wimpole street if he was happy about Brexit and he said nothing is permanent. They had to follow their leaders the way they did during privatisation which has worked so well that other countries are now embracing the model and if Brexit fails , they would have to come back to the EU, though at a heavy price. He said the main reason for the brexit is the influx of EU's citizens to the UK to pick their citizenship. He said once a refugee enters EU and he or she becomes a resident in any of the EUs, his/her final destination is the uk and because of the agreement, to become a citizen becomes pretty easy and this is taking it's toll on their economy and security already. I wish them good luck but the decision would shake them and I do not see any prospect therein. |
[quote author=Nigsrdumb post=86223199]So if UK exits an economic bloc that they've been reliant on how will they sustaine their economy? Yeah they need alternatives, like dumb Africa. After one gets education, one must also get common sense The benefit is mutual. Uk was one of the biggest contributor to the EU. They rely on EU much as EU rely on them |
[quote author=1StopRudeness post=86222758]Nigerians don’t care....u think Nigerians consider all these things....as horrible as the fire of Australia is every year....people are running there.... if a staff of exxon earning 940k can run to Canada with his family..do I need to tell u people aren’t leaving just because they need to...Nigeria has psychologically damaged many people...those with good jobs now are afraid it will still get worse ...religion and ethnicity has messed us up as if they don’t have religion in the US and Canada... Many are leaving for security, some health care and some for old age cos these advance countries take care of if their senior citizens... a country where it has become a norm for people to die anyhow.... .Abeg Oga leave if u have chance ooo...all these big people in Nigeria call themselves entrepreneurs already have papers to jaapa once it has fully casted..The Op is referring to the recent obsession Nigerian now have with Canada. I think I get his message. Canada is good, no doubt but Nigerian opinion about the country now seems so exaggerated the when you put US side by side with Canada, 90 Percent will choose Canada and that is strange |
