Ijebus are from Waddai Sudan, it means Subomi Balogun of FCMB, Mike Adenuga and other notable Ijebus are not Yoruba

Read his answer and tell me if that isn't a cop out. In an attempt to fix his drunken 1983 blunder he said everybody migrated from "somewhere". The Ijebus know who they are, what they identify as and the customs they practice. It is not in doubt.

Its ruling dynasty was founded by Obanta of Ile-Ife. They have oba, ogboni and baloguns like all yoruba city states.

So F for a failed attempt at distraction. Agbor is Edoid and Jim Ovia isn't Igbo.

iSlayer:
The Fulani can never lord it over others in a Middlebelt country. Don't you know the make up of the Middlebelt?


And intercommunal crises based on petty squabbles like land ownership is not strong enough. In their own country they can discuss proper modalities like boundary adjustments and all that. I'm talking of internal power tussles that can destabilize a country.

The most organized tribe in the middle belt are the Fulani. They still have that emirate structure to lean on.

That dead bank that finances importation of fake items

They hate Buhari coz he is dealing with all the substandard imports (Chinese dumping) that thrived under Ebelechikwu. Now that the country has to actually manufacture and produce real goods, it's wailing of marginalization galore while still having time to boast about pulling out economically from the SW. What an oxymoron. Economic deadbeats. Time for the region west of the Niger to kick them across the river along with their stalls and Fidelity bank

Anambralstson:
Like I said Ovia isn't Edo name, if you believe Agbor are not Igbo, you should believe history of Ijebu migrating from Sudan.

Agbor isn't Ijebu. So WTF does your false equivalence have to do with anything? Is there any Dein or Ovia in landlocked Igbo land (Abia, Anambra, Enugu, Imo and Ebonyi)?

GTFO of the SW with your rag tag igbo bank, Fidelity

Anambralstson:
Jim Okechukwu Ovia, many Igbos answer Ovia

It's like Yorubas claiming Itshekiri and Akoko-Edo coz they have Yoruba influenced names or have historical ties to us.

Well, in this case. Their ancestry is Edo and the Dein has said it in no clear terms. Agbor isn't Igbo. Jim is Agbor. Deal with it

Anambralstson:
I careless of the useless blog, may be I should show you where Oba of Ijebu land claimed they are not Yoruba

Jim Okechukwu Ovia is Igbo man and Igbos control Zenith, Ovia is Igbo name

Jim Ovia is not Igbo. I know the man myself.

Don't give me that crap. They are Edoid

Anambralstson:
Agbor is Igbo enclave

Agbor is not.

Dein of Agbor has repeatedly rejected it and the proof is below

Anambralstson:
Zenith bank is Igbo bank and most successful and largest bank in Nigeria

Agbor bank. Delta state.

Jim isn't Igbo and stop deluding yourself with the forced association. Agbor is an ancestral Edo group. Dein of Agbor is Edo

Cut the crap. It's a SS bank

Both of them are not viable.

Tiv and Jukun crisis
Ijaw and Urhobo and Itshekiri crisis
Fulani crisis
Etc


They are the reason we still have one Nigeria

Osaze007:
They are now shifting goal post to remove military
Loooool
The greatest insult you can tell an Igbo man is move back to your territory

When you tell them to get the fawk out they always do the goalpost shifting magic.

Call their bluff

I believe you don't understand the meaning of merger and acquire

How Access, Diamond Bank Merger’ll Trigger Fresh Competition among Banks
The planned merger of Access Bank Plc and Diamond Bank, which took stakeholders by surprise last week, may trigger a fresh competition among money deposit banks in the country. The merger if it pulls through is expected to create the largest bank in Nigeria by assets size, a position Zenith Bank Plc with an asset base of N5.595 trillion as at December 31, 2017, occupies at present, and which it is not ready to relinquish without a fight, going by the prestige and business status it confers on the money lender. First Bank which comes second with N4.949 trillion and GTBank with N3.335 trillion and third in assets base are also not likely to give up their positions without a push.

The coming year, therefore, is likely to be very challenging in the banking industry based on the steady and continuous slide in the price of crude oil in the international market, a situation that has eroded the profitability of many banks, in an economy that depends 80 per cent on oil revenue and public sector funds. For a bank to be profitable and remain in the front seat in the years ahead, such would of necessity need to grow its size both in assets and shareholders’ funds.

Next year, therefore, is likely to be a high pressure year for Nigerian banks in terms of maintaining their held positions and seeking for new businesses. Therefore, the size of a bank, especially its assets base and shareholders’ funds would determine the type and level of business it would likely accommodate. And with the general elections coming up in the first quarter of 2019, banks are likely to face increased pressure on their finances as politicians would move for the available funds to support their campaigns. Thus to hedge against collapse and to meet up with obligations to their customers, banks may likely be rushing to the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) credit window or the Capital market to raise funds either by Rights Issues, Public Offer or both.

The big four: Zenith, First Bank, GTBank and Access, because of their size, may not likely feel much of the pressure but for the middle level and small banks, there would certainly be increased pressure on their finances and their vaults. This may trigger mergers or acquisitions.

It's not a merger. They were bought out. Forget all the feel good press and even at that the bank is owned and controlled by the SS boys

topboss1:
First logical step is to remove your ragtag military from our land. No python or cobra dance becos we want to leave u.

Give us referendum and then as part of the separation package, our people living in the capital cities will relocate home.

ALready many are doing so now as we are even making preparation for a potential break up of Nigeria.

Do your part and let the igbos go, pharaoh.

Nobody will stop you from relocating back to your ancestral land. You can start agitations when you get there.

Don't you have no shame? An economic refugee making empty threats and he doesn't want to leave the land of his benefactors even though he thinks he is in competition with them

Anambralstson:
Zenith and UBA are owned by Igbos, Access Bank was taken over by a core of new management led by Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede and Herbert Wigwam from Rivers, mind you Pascal Dozie now control large stake in Access Bank with the new merger of both banks

Pascal sold out his shares. He isn't any major stakeholder. He has no say

Access is a SS bank

UBA is owned by foreign conglomerates. They have the biggest share capital

topboss1:
I dont want war with you, i want to live completely separate from u.


I dont want to share nationality or identity with you, i want my own.

The first logical step for you is to pack your bags and relatives then leave the SW

Afonja go back to your red mudhut and brown roof.

Leave the Igbo region alone.

U will not hear, u will feel .

We only have 55 Yorubas living in the red mud South Yeast and they are all federal workers. We can get them back in a day.

topboss1:
That is the best part of it, wen we set out to deal with dem, they will be totally surrounded by us.


Then they will realise wat a big mistake they made coming to create Oba stool in our land.


That day is fast approaching.

Go back to your red mud enclave and take all the Chisco and Ekenedilichukwu buses with you packed full of returning petty traders.

We've had enough. PH port now works. You can send your cheap China made knockoffs in that direction. You have no excuse living in the SW.

Go away!

The Ika people are subgroup of Igbos. They are found in Delta and Edo states of southern Nigeria. Ika people are regarded as [b]western Igbo[/b]s. They are part of Anioma people. They speak Ika (Igboid Language). Ika people share borders linguistically in the west with the Edo speakers, in the north with the Ishan speakers, in the East with the Enuani speakers and in the south with the Ukwuani Language speakers.

The Ika people are specifically located in the North-West of Delta State but some of their communities like Igbanke, Inyelen and Ekpon spilled over into Edo State. Ika communities mostly comprise the following: Agbor, Owa,(Agbor and Owa being the major Ika speaking place) Umunede, Owerre Olubor, Ekuoma, Emuhu, Mbiri, Abavo, Orogodo, Otolokpo, Igbodo, Ute-Okpu, Ute-Ogbeje, Idumuesah, Akumazi, Ekpon (Edo State), Igbanke (Edo State), Inyelen Edo State), Iru (Edo State). Other Ika communities found in Edo State are Owanikeke, Ute Oheze, Ute Obagie, Owa-Riuzo Idu and Igbogili.[/s]

Stop promoting Igbo culture says the Royal and Spiritual leader of Agbor. The Dein of Agbor

They don't want you. They don't need you especially the contrived and desperate associations. They know who they are and they are definitely not igbo. So don't derail the thread.

Zenith bank, UBA and Access are Igbo banks, Igbo doesnt end in Southeast, Yoruba doesn't end in Southwest

Access bank is Edo. Aig owns the highest shares while Hubert is after him

Zenith is Delta owned. Cut the crap. Jim Ovia is not Igbo, he is Agbor. Just try telling the Dein of Agbor that they are Igbo. He'll kill you

UBA too isn't Igbo. It's more national in ownership

Cut the crap

Can you use the dna results to demonstrate your "out of Africa" migration theory with fairly ancient examples as proof?

Doing that should clarify your grasp of the true knowledge and fake knowledge. Google can always help as usual.

A few migration down south across the Sahara, before the Sahara dried out, occured over 10,000 years ago. Using combled words some of which begat life in the 19th century to prove an event thousands of years ago is asinine.

You have to look deeper and stop with the lazy associations

.......‘ A Dictionary Of The Yoruba Language'. Enjoy it

You simply don't get it. What you are trying to do or what you think you are doing has no concept of time.


"The turkey is a large bird in the genus Meleagris, which is native to the Americas. The genus has two extant species: the wild turkey of North America and the ocellated turkey."

So we only started having contact with the bird during slave trade. The earliest was 400 years ago. So the ToloTolo you keep yacking about is a fairly recent loan word derived from the name Turkey I suspect by Crowther is just a joke

On another hand you just don't jumble words that are not even remotely connected and use it as proof coz they sound alike in your mind. That's the story of most of your other examples. You guys should pass me the weed

You keep jumping logic. It's amazing

Olu317:
1. There is nothing like pseudo(fake) knowledge on this issue because everything I posted is backed up with substantial corresponding fact

2. Lol, defence mechanism at play because You and your believers on Bantu connection are jokers because if English language is exposed to Hebrew language pre 1600 AD and named Yoruba's Tolotolo as Turkey, then, you need learn and not antagonise what you don't understand.

3. In indeed you posted DNA admixture on Yoruba with Eurasia many years ago,then,don't limit research work on yoruba people because,‘All Yoruba are Yoruba and all Yoruba are not Yoruba' because Yoruba conscripted many ethnic Africans through interaction. In fact, Western researchers have understudy Yoruba nation and posited that Yoruba tradition is foreign to Subsahara Africa but historians amongst Yoruba try so much to null this over towering evidence with the claim that connect Yoruba to Africa as if history of Yoruba begun in 1200 AD. And this historians can't even read the ideograms writing on Opa Oranmiyan, Ore Groove, Opa Ogun, which are Semitic lettering. So what is your point?

4. Sorry to null your perceived opinion about ‘mental gymnastic' because, it seems, you are comfortable with Yoruba's obscure identity which makes her the most studied, ethnic group in the world! . Why on earth do the Europeans want to know facts about Yoruba nation? It is because evidence show that,there were a group of people known as ‘Abari', which is Hebrew in English language, that migrated from Near East, to Egypt and from Egypt through Sudan belt and vanished to the thin air.

5. Contrary to your type and others who always want to subdued Yoruba's ethnic history by these forceful African identity, which is not in Yoruba's ifaodu's account because, names identified with creation in Yoruba is Semitic, places of memory in oral transmission of Yoruba is Near East , Yoruba names are Semitic, Yoruba daily spoken language is Semitic but some people, on here will quickly use kangaroo classification,which was even faulted by Joseph Greenberg himself by forcing the Niger-Congo identity on Yoruba. In fact Yoruba oral account believed that, every mankind were birthed through with no Fossil human evidence! !

Turkey that is native to Mexico nitori Olorun

Tolotolo is a new word. Even the word for Turkey, the bird, came up when Europeans came to the new world.

You see why we laugh at you guys? Lmao

Kubernetes:
lol,then stop meddling in other people's affairs moreso that you know nothing about islam.I didnt know I had been wasting my precious time with the Dawkins.
You don't know an atom of the Islamic principles n injunctions.Little wonder,you've been blabbing that the Quranic app should be used to recite the Quran when praying.
I forbid you from making such statements on Quranic app to be used while praying.God has blessed the Muslims to commit the entire Quran to memory.

God has blessed the Muslims to use their heads to create apps so they can use it to work on more innovations rather than wasting their life cramming the Quran.

God also blessed them with using printing presses. I am sure someone like you fought against a printed Quran back in the day since it didn't align with the stone age version that was manually drafted.

Stay relevant and don't use dogma to stifle your being. God isn't vexed when you abandon a donkey for a car. He blessed us with brains to innovate

Olu317:
Lol. Do you not know there is false cognate? False cognate are two word that can be found in Two different area or ethnic groups which have semblance but have different meaning . Even if there is coincidence cognates which is different from protolanguage! Please, Look up Google if you're not conversant with my explanation . However, it seems you're sweating over my research work which is based on hardwork and your baseless assumptive fluke as some of you on here believed. It has been relentless effort studies that I have been in it for some years. So, don't patromise me!

Futhermore,once you find similar words across distinct places,then one or two things happened; teacher's language and learner's language exist, which is the reason, Bini land can easily switch between aboriginal Idu(Igodomigodo) language and Yoruba's language in the same manner Ibos have some cognate with Yoruba's language.

Therefore, it is ignorance on your part to be conclusive on what you basically have no knowledge. It is based on this, I want to expose you to your lording English language you known so much to have a lot of loaned word in her lexicon. Such loaned word is English Bible word ‘Christ', and Yoruba's Bible's ‘Kristi',which has no meaning in Yoruba language . This word was introduced through the Greek Bible as Χριστός (Christos), meaning, ‘anointed one' . So, there is Teacher's and Learner's language.

Interestingly,in coffins of Egyptian mummies the word ‘krst' is found as a blessing and anointing from Horus and Osiris, hence the word Christos is thought as loaned. Krst denoted the process of preparation of the mummy by embalming, purifying and anointing, and can mean anointed, buried or covered in oil.

My point here is that word being used by many people is created by one group and through interaction with others, such words are loaned into other people's lexicon... Thus,there is a master and servant in language.
Get knowledge!

There is knowledge and then their's fake knowledge

I want nothing to do wity the later.

Yeah, from many we have one. But the associations predates modern languages is my point. FYI. I posted DNA evidence amongst Yoruba admixture with euroasia years ago, so it's not that I am not aware of it. It's the mental gymnastics you guys go through to make fairly recent associations that amazes me. They are all funny

1. From time immemorial.

2. Time immemorial before English Bible writers in early 1600s loaned many words from ancient Hebrew into her lexicon.

3. Yes both mean, peacock!
Meanwhile Turkey has another meaning in English language.

4. They sound alike,bro. It is called cognate. Beside, when one travel from one location to another, there is high degree of language contraction and drifts in language by newer generation speaker of such language.

5. Please do post and show the connection and lets do cognates comparison and her protolanguage development.

6. Yoruba : Kara ; contracted to (ra)
English language : Buy

Hebrew : Kara
Meaning: buy

Did Yoruba ancestors also laoned the above word? You guys are just bunch of funny lads

Dude. Pick any language in the world and you'll find similar but far fetched associations.

You have nothing upstairs and it is evident from ypur ad hominem attacks. Refute what I said with logic and facts if you can. I doubt you are even capable. You can keep your comfort in your ile kewu where you are with your ignorant minions memorizing something I have in an App

Olu317:
I wonder reason for this wailing. Oya see Something to hurt your ignorance more. Below is
English :Peacock
Yoruba : ọkin
Ancient Hebrew : Tooke

Tooke and Okin? Lmao

Questions for you

1. When did Yoruba start using Okin?
2. When did the Hebrew start using Tookie?
3. WTF is the connection between Tookie and Okin? They don't even sound remotely close or related. I can as well insert the Gaelic word for Peacock and say I am making a point

Shoot your best shot

Kokoebapluse:
You wrong rabbi is a word using among Jew's Priest, rabbi is a one who knows well about Jew's religion he can be called master or teacher, they called Jesus rabbi doesn't mean he have western education but because he knows well about Jew's religion, I use Jesus as example be Jesus can't speak English but still we all respect him in one the other way, you does not need to go to school before you can be a great person in life, chose the life you want and live by it surely you will be great,

A Rabbi is a religious teacher. What you call western education now was being birthed in Greece, Rome, Turkey, Iran and in the middle east at that time. There was no such thing as western education as you understand it back in the early ADs (2000 years ago!). So quit with bullshit.

A Rabbi undergoes a formal education (Rabbinical school) before he is accepted as a teacher. You just don't wake up a Rabbi.

And I ask again. What is Jesus's business in this conversation?

We are talking about your kids wasting there productive lives away memorizing something they can literally get on there finger tips
