Corridon:
I know he must be a Yoruba man like me. At times, we are ingrates.

Yorubas are ingrate?
I've seen people of other tribes say some negatives about Yoruba people but i've never ever seen anyone attach this particular vice(Ingrates) to them, not under any condition or for whatever reason

It means even you dont know your true identity

mrvitalis:
Land is cheaper in osun than Anambra Anambra has 7 universities ...has over 12 nursing school

There is no way you can compare Anambra and osun in my aspects of development no way absolutely

Thats fair...Good to know that no one region is way above the rest in "Every single stats pertaining development"

My own worry is why the comparison at all when one region cant take excellence in all aspect?

horsepower102:
I can’t wait until EEC construction enters full swing. More investment will pour in.

But you people doubt other stats coming from statisense especially when its not in your favour

like the least poor states, least unemployment rate and so on

Dont come here to tell me you confirmed using other source cause all i'm seeing here is statisense

Fut9ure:
No pity for any Nigerians

Wow I can't imagine we brought upon ourselves tinubu's administration after what we have been through in Buhari's tenure of we regretting and in pains

A friend of mine in South Africa once said if tinubu gets more than ten thousand votes that it is gonna mean Nigerians are sick

And he is going to be celebrating any bad news of suffering, killing and banditry

How does this relate to the thread topic

Are you so daft that you dont know when to wail and when not spew gibberish that are irrelevent to the topic of disccusion?

If Obi presidency would eradicate poverty in the whole Nigeria, then all Anambra residents during his administration should have been millionaires by now

Amunethseranu:
... No that's not me.

Are you not Amatarasha?

misano:
Itsekiri is not Yoruba. The cultures are different. Don't mislead people.

Then its fine,I'm sure when he gets to know that,he'll edit his posts

Just surprised that Ayo oristejafor and even the Olu of itshekiri claimed they are Yorubas but I believe you more
We don't force ourselves on others... We didn't even do that to those in kogi and Kwara

successmatters:
Actually, most non indegenes of Lagos are the people who do well in Lagos, Tinubu, mc Oluomo and Sanwo-Olu are good examples

OK then

This is very funny

Its true that Most non-Yorubas are obsessed with Lagos, going by the kinda comments I'm reading on this thread

Amunethseranu:
... No they aren't reptilians has no Carni-canines while dracs are looking like vampyres but red in colours . Due to mine relationship with them they made runeslania now called Roumania their second homes, they lived peacefully with humans there until Rome fought them back to middle earth and vampyres myth emerged till date. Their are many old mansion still standing in Hungary and Roumania which are owned by red serpents ...

What are you saying?
You're just trying to sound like a mysterious human

I remember how u once threatened to torment a guy here in his dreams

4Humanity4All:
Omoh, I thought I've left GNS 106 behind. It's still here😂

You're a grad of FUTA, I guess

Supremos:
Soyinka sold his sense for rice importation

I know Chinua is crying in his thunder struck grave about his unaccomplished goals in life but I never knew that even living souls like you could join the dead in gnashing of teeth


Curse be upon Achebe even in his grave

misano:
Remove Delta and Edo from there.

Don't be unnecessarily emotional... He just said that some parts of Delta like the itshekiri speak Yoruba


In fact,in his next post,he mentioned clearly that Yorubas don't want Edo
And that's true, they really don't force attachments to themselves

I started my argument by deliberately talking about The King Xerxes conquest of Persia which extended to Ethiopia and the Alexander the great conquest which crosses down to Alexandria in Egypt yet one dullard who goes about reading the acts of old Benin monarchs thinks he knows more


Just sleep abeg

Ghostwon82221:
In Nigeria you guys have big educational problems.
What makes you think you know your "history" ?
Are you 1000 years old ? Do you have a time machine, or were you told stories started by people with vested interests ?
I tell British people their history, I tell French, German, Russian, Chinese their history, but you...oh you, you are special, I can't tell you your history, original Nigerian, full of arrogance but with no wisdom and no knowledge, just arrogance and delusion.

Full of ignorance and delusion,no knowledge??


Bro, I don't know you,I don't care about your age, but I'm sure I can comfortably school you in philosophy,biology, psychology, science, evolution,religion and that too,I'll do offhand


You think everyone you meet here are toddler who do not know jack about their immediately environment??


You even said I have no wisdom?

What brought about all these personal attack


In fact, that you had to resort to personal attack is a psychological weariness of losing an argument

If thats how you lecture people... I'm sorry, I won't go on with this

Take care

Ghostwon82221:
Delta was part of Benin !
It is weird that you didn't notice that all delta monarchs have the same ceremonial outfit as the Oba of Benin, yet you are the one talking abouting the fact remanants of culture should have been noticeable. You are not thinking objectively. You are blinded by your own bias and ethnic bigotry (like many Nigerians are).


Even Rivers people have close links with Benin.
As I said earlier and as you failed to hear, Benin was a large multilingual kingdom, Benin city is only the capital of Benin.
That is why Benin is the only kingdom in West Africa which has more than 30 billion dollars worth of artifacts spread across European and American museums.

When will you accept the fact that you know nothing about history and listen to the likes of me whom are much more educated than you ?

Bro, the influence of the Benin is still very evident in delta state, some Urhobos and even the so-called "Delta Igbos" still have some titles that are very synonymous to Benin and they are even culturally related....same as the ijaws and some fraction of River state.


But we can't say same about Ondo state which is the closest SW state to Benin....in fact, Ondo is closer to Benin than Rivers is to Benin yet these Benin people struggled to influence their Lagos conquest

Ghostwon82221:
It is very hard to understand why even after yorubas are given unrefutable proof they still maintain their disproved claim.

Like it or hate it, Lagos was part of Benin ! Deal with it.

How's Lagos my headache

Zoom into that map and cut out how Edo shared boundaries with Lagos cause I can't strain my eyes on ordinary online argument


Benin's must be so weak that they couldn't even leave any trace of their early conquest in Lagos... No town, no street,no royal titles in their names

Even the influence of the Fulani's and the Yorubas is still very much evident in kwara

Same as the influence of the Yorubas in itshekiri

Same as the igbos in Opobo and Asaba

Ghostwon82221:
I literally showed a precolonial map which shows Lagos and it's environs were part of Benin.
Also even ondo monarchs admit their domain was part of Benin. You guys just chose to blind yourselves like fanatics.

Drop the map and lets see how they annexed Lagos from Edo

By the way, I'm from ondo and u can't tell me about my history.... I may not know much about Lagos but then, having read many historical excerpts on ancient empires, I known it's impossible to own a place and not have a Trace of your influence there


Igbos influence is still well profound in Rivers and Delta

Hausa's and Fulani still have a stake in Niger and kwara

But nothing in any southwest state indicates the Benin's ever owned a place here..in fact, there is a town in Edo State called "Sabe"which is the closest place to any ondo village, yet not even the neighboring ondo villages there(imoru,ijagba) who shared same community sec schools with them speak their language



So i wonder how Benin would have owned Lagos yet no street, no cultural relations, nor language interrelations is been noticed there till date...not even in ondo which is closer to Benin,nor Ogun,which is closer to "owned Lagos"

Drop that map already... Just the map alone

Maxxim:
How do you guys comes up with this shit, your unrealistic moves to twist history to your narrative is just too obvious.
Facts is just same way the macedonia defeats the egyptian, does that mean they are now the natives and original settlers ?
The Benin's are external force who only defeated the yoruba natives so they could keep them under their jurisdiction for taxes and trades, if the Benin's actually owns Lagos we should have different towns and homes in isale eko with Benin's title isn't it?

Was also thinking if truly the binis owned Lagos,considering the distance between them, Binis influence should have been more profound between ondo,Ogun and other Lagos neighboring SW states


Cause those days, empires tend to spread their influence around an already conquered territory, just as Xerxes of Persia and Alexander the great did their across Asia minors, Europe and Egypt

TheSourcerer:
A lot really , we share a lot of culture and a lot of Brazilians live in Nigeria , I wrote a whole topic on this yesterday, Joke Silva and Dj Xclusive are Brazilians in Nigeria.

How did u know that about Joke Silva and what physical features actually distinguished them from native Nigerian Yorubas

Its impossible for Oshoala to win the golden boot this season....she's prolly the most decorated African female footballer ever


By the way, would really love to see this barca team play Leicester FC men ...would really like to see how far their techniques can't take them elsewhere since they are superior to every other female team

Your story even has real life references....Kudos

By the way, in what year did the Binis and Eguns take over/run out of their land according to David Hundeyin

Can they really end this??

I pray so

Mallam Nasir keep moving from one top political position to another

His Religious and political stance aside, at the end of his lifetime, he'll have achieved a lot for a person with a supposed SS genotype

IyaebeTheGreat:
Stop forcing yourself on ladies, allow your women choose you and you'll never experience any of these. Obviously you choked her for a relationship but her love was for the other guy. I can't date whom I didn't choose, you'll be wasting your time on every of your moves. Attract your woman first, you'll always see that sign that she has chosen you if you are smart but some guys ain't smart anyways.

Ubunja has always said this

A woman confirmed this again

Adenuga been disappearing from the news since the days of Aristotle but how he manages to remain among the top10 richest in Africa despite being almost lowkey is jaw-dropping


That said, Soludo already has that inter-regional acceptance even across all ethnic groups in Nigeria, thanks to his time as the CBN Governor...He's up there with Frank Nweke, Dora and Mallam El-Rufai as the best guys in OBJ's cabinet, Hence, their public acceptance beyond just their own regions

Corn247:
It is now evident that Tinubu administration's priority is for each region to have freedom to manage their resources and be free from constraints.
This is exactly what the Igbos said they want, they think others are setting them back, although their actions speak otherwise because they seems to be the ones that largely depend on others and the so called "one Nigeria" but that aside.

Why are they not jubilating since regional autonomy is the closest thing to what they are asking for? or are they lying and what they actually want is to control the whole of Nigeria?

Una sef, must u create a thread about them?

I know they're obsessed with us but I never knew there are some Yorubas who can't do without mentioning igbos too

cktheluckyman:
Seriously the way this people talk.Osun and Ekiti remains amongst the poorest states in the country.

This is exactly why I stopped arguing with most of you Igbos, you argue with zero facts but 100% assumptions

Ondo is the state with the least number of poor people in Nigeria

Check below a thread created by your fellow Igbo which he created to taunt the Yoruba and try educate yourself....don't quote me with if u have no facts to spill

Rokiat:
Two cueless male species above me (above the first two) completely clueless and find it hard to believe a woman can look good and post her pics on her profile and not actually be interested in no man.

These people reasoning so low I sometimes wonder.

I been a member here since 2006 registered under Rokiatu and yet not one man has come out to say anything if I was really here looking for man as they claimed. Someone should have come out by now with solid evidence that they fu…cked me or even meet up with me.

Do you know how many DMs I get on the regular and not only from nairaland my instagram Facebook etc?

These fools really think I am here looking for a man, I just like to have fun and I am obsessed with myself and why not so imma always post my pics.

The whole being a man claim is just funny to say the less lmao.


On a flip note if I was really looking for clients I wouldn’t even come on nairaland home of a lot of broke and misogynist men lol da fu…..ck.

Omo..you no be small pikin o
As at 2006, I be 10years old

That the only thing that piqued my attention in all u said

U go Use like 10years senior me, mama

richmond500:
Afenifere and Arrewa is looking for a better Nigeria irrespective of tribe, they could be partisan but they are trying.

But one group filled with old men in one region is busy playing tribal politics openly.

You're too wise bro
This is deep

dudusky007:
MICHAEL PLS IF YOU CAN'T FIND THE TRUMPET... USE WHISTLE,

princefrank76:

Did u see her upper body and how fat they are?

I am actually a QC officer and just a week ago, we treated this as one of the major subjects under FSSC2000 training at my food company
Funny how i have never heard or know about this before until we underwent the training recently

So yea, I'm glad i saw this post too
