This list is incomplete without People like Aurthur Eze, Tony Elumelu, Obijackson and Cosharis. These Igbo Millionaires are wealthy, but keep a low profile.

Muritala was supposed to be one of Nigeria's finest president but he was not given that opportunity....I suspect buhari and co!!!!

Have you read Nigerian history? He has a good report because he was only in power for 6months.

Plutusgas:
One thing we should know about the like of bovas, northwest, matrix,AA Rano etc. These guys are the importers of pms or the guys through whuch nnpc sells their products. When you go these depots, you can never buy fuel below 145. How then do you expect the normal petrol station owners that are feeding off these big guys to sell below the prize at which they have bought. These big guys already made huge profit from selling in their depots and are still making huge profits by selling at 145 in their respective outlets.

I stand to be corrected though.

Your head dey there.

Samusu:

They are not wicked. You need to understand the intricacies of the business. There is more than meets the eyes.

PerformOrResign:
Was it not the same Ogundamisi that sold Buhari to us and now he is saying the same mistake that Jonathan made is what Buhari is making. Ogundamisi is an enemy of Nigeria and his disgrace has just started

He sold Buhari to you? Simply Simply shocking that means you don't have a mind of your own?

Deadlytruth:
Thanks very much for your observation on abusive language. This guy called macof started it all by derogatorily tagging me an empty headed Bini just because I took him up with facts and logic.

Well, you see, a lot of Ibillo folks are confused about Ibillo history. I think the fault emanates from Ibillo elders who up till now have never sat down and come out with an account of how Ibillo came to be. If you arrive Ibillo and take random opinions about their origin you will be shocked at how varied the responses would be.
This explains Prof Michael Ayodele Ajomo's situation.


Even in Igarra, the people initially used to claim Idah Origin due to the seeming similarity between the pronunciations and spellings of Igarra and Igala. It was just 2 decades ago that deep research showed that Igarras actually migrated from somewhere into Kwararafa Kingdom and later moved to Idah before moving down to Etuno.

Ibillo people clearly belong to the Okpameri tribe which is composed of other towns like Imoga, Lampese, Ugboshi Ele, Ugboshi Afe, Ojirami Petesh, Bekumah, Ekor, Ilekpi, Somorika etc. They all speak Okpameri which is Edoid, and defer to Ibillo as their cultural headquarter. So how could Ibillo people alone have come from Yorubaland to become tribally identical with other villages composed of Bini Migrants? It is like an Igbo man migrating to found a town in Ondo State and afterwards that Igbo town becomes 100℅ identical in language and traditions with its surrounding Yoruba towns, and in fact becomes the cultural headquarters of those Yoruba towns which were already in existence before its own founder arrived. How really possible?

Point of correction please; Igarra is not Egbira at all. Those called Egbiras are located in Kogi State. Igarra and Egbira people are both independent subsets of the Oshuku tribe which even has members in Yala LGA of Cross River State. It is wrong to assume that Igarras are a subset of Egbiras. Please read the previous messages here and you'll get to understand this better.

Is the Prof from Ibillo? I don't agree with you that the Prof is confused about his ancestry.

Which of the Olabanji, hope u are not referring to my own Banji

Please don't expose Seye

ImperialYoruba:
Me hule, mo bo wa, mo wa ba omi, omi dede ti baje, mo gha to pe, me ru ukankan mo!

This is Yoruba unadulterated.

Sounds like Idanre/Ondo town Yoruba

Deadlytruth:
Binis are not like Yorubas who abuse political power to impose their culture on others. It is on record that since the creation of Midwest and Edo State the Bini governors that have ruled did not at any time issue any policy that made it compulsory for all primary and secondary schools pupils in the state to offer Bini Language. Each village's schools have always been allowed to freely teach the indigenous language of its inhabitants to their pupils and students. This is clearly unlike under the Western Region government which made it compulsory for Yoruba to be offered in schools located outside the non-Yoruba parts of the region. So stop making inverted accusations.
Our decision to join the Midwest Region was out of free will and not coercion from the Binis. So if our traditional figures begin to put on skirts or whatever you call it, then just know it is also a free will thing. Bini culture is too rich and alluring for them to force anyone to identify with it, rather others Edos do so spontaneously because they are really offshoots of Benin coupled with the attractiveness of the culture.
So you can take your divide and rule tactics to the Igbos calling your Lagos State a no man's land which you prove right by voting them into the Lagos State House of Assembly and also to the National Assembly to represent Lagos constituencies.

I think we should be able to make our points without insulting each other.

I once read an interview of Prof Michael Ayodele Ajomo. He claims to be from a Yoruba village now part of Edo state. I don't know the name, but I believe it is in Akoko Edo. So I believe some people or villages in Akoko Edo have Yoruba origins. A town like Igarra is clearly Egbira.

scholes0:
Okun is Yoruba 100% pure and simple.
The name "Okun" actually come from the Yoruba word "Okun- take it easy" which is the way they are popularly known to greet one another.
Okun is one of the Yoruba sub-groups others being Ijesha, Ekiti, Akoko, Ijebu, Igbomina, Egba, Ilaje, Oyo, Etc

Does Okun mean take it easy or how are you?

Egbon mi? Obasanjo was Buhari's boss in the military.

Not all hendsmen are bad o, in my village in ileogbo Osun state we have lots of these hensmen and they always mingle with us Infact they married some of our ladies while some of we guys befriend some of their girls. There is peace and harmony among us. But why some regions claiming they are the one behind all these killings is still bothering me. I'm sure there is untold story behind this.

Don't worry, you will soon have emir in Ileogbo. Na my guy Olabanji I dey pity.

What is untrue about the fact that Obj conceived modernization of our railway and Yar'adua reversed all the gain achieved

Demmzy15:
Make I no deceive you, I find it very hard to believe. The religious ridge between Yoruba Muslims and Christians is expanding everyday, and I think this is due to that fact that many Muslims have woken up from their sleep. It wasn't like many years ago when many Muslims went to churches and the likes, our eyes are open now. Some months back, there was a Yoruba Christian I debated here that clearly admitted, he'll choose an ipob Christian over his fellow Yoruba Muslim. The truth is we're no longer gullible!

The guy called Muslims all sort of name and even termed me a "bastard", so whenever I see them saying we're one. I highly doubt it, If you've noticed, you'll notice that many of the bigotic CAN statements come from Yoruba Christians and don't get me wrong, I have Christians in my family. I love them and won't allow anything bad happen to them. But the truth needs to be told, it wasn't like yesterday!

I have also noticed the increasing bigotry in the South West. It is really heart breaking.
