history2901:
I think you don't clearly understand the expression "Historical document". If you have any about Oba Oranmiyan then please share.
But you have none, nobody has ! Because We didn't have a written language when Oba Oranmiyan is said to have lived.
It is weird how you guys keep trying to punish me for being honnest. You must be real full blooded 419.

Barely two posts and you are calling me names. It shows how interested you are in the subject matter or perhaps the depth of your reasoning.

history2901:
I don't have any historical document about Oba Oranmiyan, therefor I can not have a rational discussion about him. Therefor I pass.

If you have no historical knowledge of Oranmiyan then you have no business discussing where the title "Oba" came from.

history2901:
Kindly read my post about wikipedia. And then come back for a serious discussion.
Wikipedia is not a historical document, nor even a trusted source of information in these matters.
You should kindly refer to historical documents such as pre-colonial papers or even colonial papers calling people and their titles.
Nw that is history

How come Oranmiyan was the first ruler of Benin to be called Oba? Was the title specially invented for him by the Benin people?

beberebe:
you can go and say that to the oba of lagos

Some family bear Oshodi as their last name in Ekiti, Eti Osa in simple Yoruba means the bank of the lagoon. I don't think the Oba of Lagos though an oddball would write all these things.

Ajewealth123:
infact na front of your house he dey.
Who doesn't want to associate with success.
If to say na terrorist na,u no go talk am o.

Kai sharp sharp,dem don give am title come add him full names both given and dashed

That poster is obviously not new.

Balkan:
Do u know that all 9 members of RCCG governing council are Yorubas? Do u also know that no Igbo man is a Bishop in the Living Faith church( Winners Chapel)? No Igbo Man is also a superintendent at Deeper Life Bible Church? Do you also know that no Igbo man is also a senior Pastor @ Daystar Christian center? Neither any one @ Kingsway International Christian Center?
The Igbos should know that the Messiah will come from among its people. The disciples of Jesus Christ are Galileans like him, they should stop pumping money into other tribe projects and yet complain about Igbo marginalisation. We should start with what we can control. Go to any church but ensure that part of your tithe and other big donations go to Igbo churches because soon "it will be to your tents oh Israel"
Please send until it gets to all Igbo sons & daughters, because even in heaven, as on earth, there is hierarchy and little segregation.

When you realise how much money that leaves the east every Monday you will realise why Yorubas would not want you to get Biafra.

Have you ever seen a yoruba man read SUN news paper or champion news paper.

How many Yorubas would you find in a church where an Igbo man is the founder.

They hate you to the extent they will not let their houses to you unless there is no choice than to give you the house.

How many Yorubas bank with Fidelity bank or diamond bank.

Your real enemy is known to you yet you look the other way round.

How much have you donated to your home church? Igbo make use of your brain.

The mod will definitely throw this away because they would not want you to know the truth.

Please this message is only for igbo awareness

And most importantly, you forgot to add how many Yoruba cares about your puerile analysis.

We need a governor, if we want to be entertained we have the likes of basketmouth, AY, Sanyeri and others.

False prophesy and "shayo" induced hallucinations. I can't understand this type of morbid prophesy from Nigerian pastors. They hardly see someone who will survive anything, only people who will die.

AyakaDunukofia:
A good nation brings out the best from his citizens. Anthony Joshua is a British born and not 'Nigerian born' as claimed by the OP. Born in Watford by Scottish father. He is a member of the British Empire, MBE, flying the Union Jack Flag. Would die and be buried honorably in the UK. Any sublimal, subtle claim of this man is laughable

His, is a story of grass to grace. Anthony Joshua, nine years ago was a BRICKLAYER ecking out a living from London's construction sites. No one remembered him then.

Simply done well for himself, his family, his British trainers and the UK government.

He doesn't deny his Nigerian heritage, his father is Irish-Nigerian, his mother a Nigerian. He once lived in Nigeria and still have families in Nigeria what else do you need. Why shouldn't Nigerians be proud of him?
He himself is proud of Nigeria enough to get a map of Nigeria tattoo on his body.

Countries like Brazilian, Argentina, Australia, New Zealand, Namibia, USA and some others are making billions from meat export, something we can easily replicate in Nigeria with good leadership and some people are here trying to convince themselves why they must eat beached whales and stranded manatees.

Unfortunate fish, landed on one of the most hostile coastal waters on the planet. From Lagos to Calabar, if you are a whale, manatee, dolphin, a sea turtle or any marine life slightly larger than a minow please don't stray, or you will be eaten.

Vicolan:
Let the truth be told, Ooni did not really know the
greeting style of Lagos,
He should have learnt the greeting style in Lagos
island.
He should have raised up his two hands, bang his
feet on the ground alternatively and say "twale
baba" or buate baba " owo meji fun eeyan kan,,iba
e 1million,
Kabiyesi will then respond and say " gbayi padi
mi" ....


Lol

You are funny. It was a case of culture clash! Twale baba. Lol

The great jollof rice war. The past few weeks it was BB naija and Dino Melaye "ajekun iya". I don't think Nigeria is in any serious problem.

Easy kill for the Americans, Sitting ducks, not artillery guns. This show is intended for the South Koreans.

300 million naira man. If he encounters a marching band of ten he will run the opposite direction. Na wah o.

Wikipedia history! Anyone can edit Wikipedia.

True Omoluabi.

spafu:
Ha! The thing pain am? Son of AFO....

Another dirty and frustrated idiot.

JaneyBlingx:
Guess the "twerkouts" aren't working out for her cos her butt is still as flat as a slate

Wicked.lol

AyamConfidence:
I'm not a tribalist but this pic just came to mind

Sorry if anyone gets offended...no quoting ooo

Why did you have to apologize? If you are not comfortable being an idiot why do you project yourself as one?

A lot of Yoruba youths were shot dead in the protests after the annulment, the young Abiola should at least show some respect. That is if he actually made the alleged statemement.

modik:
Based on the emboldened, is it safest to say that betrayal is consanguineous to Yoruba race, for which Abiola himself was complicit of as a natural heritage?

Sardauna of Sokoto treated Nzeowu like a son, isn't it the greatest betrayal that Nzeogwu shot him in his own bedroom? Are ibos genetically treacherous?

Wtf. We celebrate nonsense in this country and our value system gets wackier by the day. (No agro directed at efe )

I think the whole thing is just weird because other countries also have their own big brother reality show and they are not as fixated as Nigerians.

A reputable Nigerian newspaper copied a story from Facebook and published it without any independent vetting!
There's no way of knowing whether this story is true or false. The pictures does not even suggest whether any wedding actually took place, bride is written as "bridge"
How are they sure that story is not planted?

drake2000x:
How will you get it when you are an Afonja. The Chinese loan is simply to expand the industry and meet global demand. The labor force will still be locally filled Aba crafters. The goal is to to take design orders from Wal-Mart, Target , Sears, e.t.c., and mass produce whatever they demand. Right now these giant retail products are being made in Mexico, Sri Lanka, Vietnam and Malaysia because they have giant factories to meet their demands. That's what Aba is looking forward to. Instead of small individual shops, they can harness them all into giant factories with mechanized equipment to mass produce. The ingenuity and design will still be Aba!

This company is actually already in Ethiopia. They will employ local labor for sure but independent shoe makers in Aba will automatically become their competitors. There are advantages and there are disadvantages but I think this is a good development above all.

Tinububola121:
we yorubas should stop killing our brothers in the name of ritual

Self awareness and self examination are critical attributes of being human, it appears you lack both therefore I can understand why you think others are to be blamed for your cannibalism.
I wish you happy chomping.
