Will do that.

So what does Exema mean in Edo then, and how does its meaning connect to being a gentleman? The burden of proof is on the edoids, since this name exists in Three Yoruboid groups if not more, and yet no single Edo group bears Edema as a name yet you wanna claim it comes from them.

I already told you about dialectal difference already, I don’t know how else to explain it - but take this as an example.

The name Jolomi is a Yoruboid name. BUT you will only see it in Itsekiri and certain Ondo groups. Jolo (pronounced as Jorlor) is a Yoruboid word meaning beautify, replace , replenish, repair etc... but its use has a restricted grographical scape.
Now you can tell what a name like Oritsejolomi means.

Now, if I don’t see Jolo in my Yoruba dictionary- I would be very wrong to jump into a hasty conclusion by automatically assuming that it is an Edo name.

Another example will be the Igala name Onuche, Ogwuche or Onoja - these are very apecific Igala names one might even be tempted to think the first or second one is igbo- but believe me they are proper Yoruboid names that have been accented by the Yoruboid language in question (Igala). In Yoruba the first and second one would be Olushe (Master don do am) , while the second would be Ogunshe (Juju don do am). Third one would be Oloja (village owner i.e Ruler)

I hope you are getting my point sha?

I see why you got the wrong meanings now. Onuche is not pronounced the way you pronounce the Igbo name Uche, che in Igala pronounced same way you pronounce Shem, shirt, shell etc.

Even the second name is pronounced same way and not the way you pronounced it like Uche the Igbo name.

The pronunciation of Ogwu in Ogwuche is different from the pronunciation of Ogwu (medicine) in Yoruba and even Igala language. We call medicine Ogwu in Igala too but this Ogwu is pronounced differently from that of medicine. You tried though.

You got the meaning of those Igala names very wrong.

Onuche means messenger or servant. If broken into parts of means
Onu - King/leader
Uche - message

Meaning king of messages. For instance, the Igala Bible refers to angels as Onuche ojo (messengers or servants of God).

Servants or messengers in a king's palace are also referred to as Onuche.

I don't have energy to break down the other names.

errrm, are you sure Edema is an Edo name?

I have never seen any Benin man called Edema before, The only Edemas I know are Itsekiris,some from Ondo state and one guy from Ijebu waterside.

We Igalas bear Enema, it has the same or almost the same meaning with the Edema used in Itshekiri. In fact many of the names listed here can be understood to some extent by Igala speakers.

I still cant understand why Peter obi has never said anything about killing of chiefs in south east but he puts mouth in every matter

Typical hypocrisy of an average Igbo, their house will b burning but they will b busy chasing rat in their neighbours house
I still don't understand why Peter Obi is not saying anything about the killing of youths in Benue and Kogi States. Herdsmen have killed more than 60 in Kogi State this year and PO hasn't said anything. Benue witnesses regular killings too but PO is quiet about it. Why? Is it that he doesn't care about the north? Where does he care about now since he won't address issues on the South East and the North?

HND holder from London? Do they offer Hands there? I'm aware an HND is the equivalent of an associate degree in the US, an associate degree is considered lesser than a degree and is a three year course or so. It is just like our own HND is considered lesser than a degree.

makemoneywbsite:
Look at those names. I see Umogidi, Ada and Ejima. Are you sure that's not the Igbo part of Benue? That means ESN isn't really dealing with Fulani militia all over Igbo land. Are Agatu related to Igbo in any way? And why are African politicians like these governors their people are getting killed so useless? You mean they can't take necessary steps to train and arm real militia to defend their people? I guess it'll start happening the day Fulani bullet gets one of their relatives.

Agatu LGA is a bit far from Igbo land and even shares boundary with Nasarawa State. Apart from Ejima the other names made me think along the lines you are thinking though. The part of Benue State that has Igbos is separated from Agatu LGA by at least 3 other LGAs. The Agatus as a tribe live on all sides of the River that separates Benue, Nasarawa and Kogi States. Their population is plenty in both Benue and Nasarawa states and they speak a language very similar to Idoma.

A DGM earns millions per month in most banks and is a very rich man and is one of the top men anywhere the bank is mentioned.

Toh

Just like 2 weeks ago, I was waiting for one of the EPL game to start, 10 mins before the game, there was unusual light off, what's this on Saturday afternoon, after waiting for like 20 mins, I decided to take a walk with the hope the light would be back.

Wasn't in the mood of watching the ball outside, so was feeling somehow for not watching the kick off, on my way back, I saw a fresh accident which involved a motorcycle and a car, unfortunately, the bike guy died Instantly, immediately my worries dissapeared, was only worried about not watching ball while someone just lost his life and the person who killed him is in trouble.

I am still wondering how can a bike hit a car or a car hitting a bike to the extent of front windscreen broken.

Perhaps both the rider and the driver were in hurry to also go and watch the ball somewhere as the light off was general.

We have neglected our responsibilities while we still want to blame others for our woes .

Both your story and that of the poster have nothing to do with the headline.

In addition you can check the profiles of those giving you answers to confirm whether they are actual experts. There are millions of questions and responses there from pilots, professors, doctors, military men, pilots, tech and the rest.

Don't forget that four candidates will share north west votes, Kwankwo will win Kano and maybe Jigawa and share the rest with Atiku and Tinubu, with Obi getting his small percentage there. At the end nothing useful will come out of that region.
