She is Itsekiri not yoruba

It was written in her profile that she was born in kwara state and you still called her itshekiri

You are really fatuous and dorky

Largest black country and no single medal in Olympic, Nigeria is a big disgrace

Congratulation Yoruba lagba as usual

I laugh at the ignorance and naivety of people that think Chinese are not racist or less racist than the West and Americans, because of their recent approach toward Africa in helping with infrastructure developments.

Although their approach might be different from the Europeans but this was basically how the Europeans dealt with Africa after they discovered Africa, they initiated trading of goods and services before they came in with their Army to plundered and pillaged Africa. We are making the same mistake all over again because we are too dumb to figure out anything on our own, with all the contracts and deals Africa is making with China it is back to slavery version 2.0 if we end up getting the short end of the stick.

When the Chinese or if the Chinese overtake USA as the world sole super power and achieve world domination that they want, many Africans will end up in concentration and labour camps because they hate your guts and there's nothing like freedom in Chinese dictionary like the West. I came across this Chinese detergent advertisement video that's extremely racist on YouTube, note that everything is extremely censor in China if this video made it to the internet it is because their government allowed it and the message of the video aligned with their thought although it happened some years ago.

Congratulation

I want to see the Lekki is overrated crew

samwash:


Is there anytime we have taken the issues of security serious in this country?
we can never compete with the USA in terms of military might, Nigeria as they say is the giant of Africa let it reflect in its military. When they say a country is powerful, it is the military they are referring to.
When you see countries like USA, China flexing muscles, it's because they have a functional military backup.

We don't have the money and economy to spend too much on military hardware when we are the poverty capital of the world.

The highest priority of Nigeria right now should be eradicating poverty and curbing it, everything else will fall in place as our economy grows stronger.

tonyashburton:
One airforce base in the US can boast of more aircraft than the entire Nigeria Air Force has in its inventory.

Are we competing with USA? Or getting what we need to defend our porous borders and tackle our security challenges ?


USA defense budget alone is bigger than Nigeria GDP and will buy Nigeria

thebosstrevor1:


The igbos dominate the athletics too...about 90% of the names on that list are igbo

That’s arguably some of the names on that list are from South South

FreeIgboho:
Why are they almost all Igbos in all the sports we consider "real" sports?

Sport is sport what do you mean by "real sports"? You must be an illiterate, just because you don't like some sports or it isn't popular in your demography doesn't mean it is not sport.


Igbo only dominate the basketball team while Yoruba dominate badminton, boxing and tennis even the swimming team .

Glink2018:


95 percent are Igbo people....wey Aboki and Oodua people....and they still call them, dot in a circle...
Pls don't ask about my tribe

You must really be blind if you don't see Yoruba there, there are at least 12 Yoruba in that list

UGBE634:
some part of akoko ondo is edoid speaking, this is the truth they will not will not tell you, even the guy admitted his king title is Ovie.

those are Edo people that settled in Ondo state in the past same way there are Yoruba speaking parts in Edo state, there are even Ijaw people in Ondo state

DriveByKiller:
it's someone with your educational standard that wrote that page on wiki.

You no dey see grammatical errors for the wiki link?

Abi akpu plus ewedu dome block your brain?

You are clearly a nitwit with cognitive disorder

I told you to provide something close to that to back up your claim that Olukumi people are captured slaves but you are dishing insults, typical of a buffoon like you that is incapable of discussing intelligently

DriveByKiller:
product of 5 minutes Google education, no one takes wiki seriously. It's editable.

Get me a better source of get lost.

You are the one that need to get lost


Provide the historical evidence or something that is close to Wikipedia that stated that you captured them as slaves. Look for it on the internet and let's see

DriveByKiller:
you're the product of a broken educational system and an offshoot of social media feed.

Olukumis are slaves in Igbo land who bear Igbo names , speak Igbo in the open and only speak ther corrupt language behind closed doors.

I wouldn't want to tell you your own history with hot slaps to your stupid face again.

Olukunmi are not slaves you are the one that lack knowledge and Education

Chris525:

First things first. If you take it I’m standing brief for the binis pls dont bother writing any further. I’m telling history as I understand it to be from extensive research. After all this kingdom we are talking about where is it today??

The bini history is hard to refute you know why. Its well elaborated in both the portuguese and british text by the colonials when they arrived. Read up what they had to say about the city and the people. A text had it they were the most developed. Their history is also well grounded. None of these areas had anything close to what binis had going on and in the power system of the time could never had rubbed off on their superiors. Culture like water travels from a high point (strong point) to a low point (weak point).

And this is also why the culture of our colonial masters rubbed off on us and not the other way round.

How were you the most developed when you even learned your bronze casting from Ile ife and Yoruba?

Keep deceiving yourself

Provide the historical text and evidence that stated that the Benin were the most developed at the time.

You are just pulling fallacious accounts and history from your ass.

How could Benin be the most developed when it was stated that they even learned bronze casting from Ile - Ife and Yoruba?

Chris525:

Haha! You should to insult me but you ridicule yourself. India is bigger than Germany, France, Israel, US, UK etc.

Binis were bloody warriors. They beheaded 3 or 4 whitemen and sent the others back to tell the story thats why the british came in all their might. They had fucking balls.

Did you know the notorious northern jihad got there from Kwara (if I’m not mistaken) and were defeated?? And thats the background story of how some part of it are moslems

My people read!

I'm talking about the head you are talking about the tail

You said a tribe should have one language and culture with no differences and I told you it depend on the size and who told you India don't have different cultures and languages?

Chris525:

These things dont just happen. They have an origin. Any student of history understands this. That the whole world wear suit now doesn't mean it belongs or it came to everyone at the same time.

It has an origin!!!

It is true that things don't just happen but why don't you think what if it was the other way round? What if we were actually the one that influenced you to start eating that food? Same way we influenced you in other things?

Chris525:

History discuss that ends in the us vs them debate is always worthless and thats where this is headed. All of these happened years ago and hold no significance now but we must speak it as it is for proper understanding not to soothe any ego.

Even within the yoruba, all of you ondo/ekiti and even lagos are not really seen as proper yorubas. You have to travel to places like ibadan and kwara to understand this. Have you sat to ask yourself what is the reason. Food is an important part of culture, why is everyone of the same ethnic stuck dressed differently or eating differently. There are cogent reason for the mind that wants to learn. The complex contrast in your indigenous languages is also telling.

No one is trying to take anyone’s identity away. Even the great bini empire is now a minority now. Its just about understanding our past.

Ondo/Ekiti and Lagos are not seen as proper Yoruba only in your delusional mind. At which time or place did you witness Ondo/Ekiti and Lagos being excluded from any South west or Yoruba gatherings?

You are just spewing fallacies and rumours from your delusional mind

Yoruba is larger than Benin and you can't use the same yardstick to judge both, bigger will always be different from smaller this should be very obvious to you if you are smart.

Chris525:

When you conquer an area, you don’t have to go into every of its towns and villages to do so. Once you attack and capture its seat of power, it’s considered that you have captured the whole area under the influence of that power.

It is for a reason that the Oba of Lagos is in Eko yet he is not called Oba of Eko but Oba of Lagos. But the Oba of badagry is called Oba of badagry not Oba of Lagos. Now do you get?

You are just half smart

It was Eko that the Portuguese named Lagos not Badagry

Eko is also Lagos, but coincidentally the name for the whole state is also Lagos

Chris525:

Can you avail me your source please.

Why do you think that a lot of Ekiti/Ondo culture tilts towards the Edos other than the yoruba? Even the Iyan they eat or claim as theirs is Edo’s food. The core yorubas are known for Amala, lafun etc. Even their indigenious language is arguably Edoid.

Pounded Yam is a well known Yoruba's food mostly eaten by Ijesa(Yoruba sub tribe) and Ife people same as Amala but Amala is mostly eaten by Oyo people


Which part of the Ekiti/Ondo culture tilts toward Edo?

Is it the Monarchial system? Dressing? no Ondo/Ekiti language is Edoid

If you don't know there is actually no core Yoruba, no Yoruba is more Yoruba than the other

It is actually Benie culture that tilts toward Yoruba, which part of Benin culture wasn't gotten from Yoruba?

Ogbuefi2020:
Benin empire sold mainly yoruba and itshekiri slaves

The same Benin that the Oba is a Yoruba man

Another silent Yoruba moneybag
