Family › Re: Her Family Told Me To Marry Her Corpse by lordmans(m): 5:08pm On Mar 31, 2021

James4358:
Should her family carryout their threats, Are they spiritual side effects to marrying a corpse? am already in a relationship that w'll tie the nots in no time. Does it mean i wont get to settle down if eventualy i perform her marraige rites? To be sincere,. Av seen comments here suggesting we forced her. We never did. I lived on my own while she was with my boss. She was certainly of a legal age when she accepted to do this. My boss took care of her parents and her salary was very impressive. She was given an appointment into the correctional service where we work as compensation. I never knew what went wrong because i work in the north central part of the country. Currently am planing to travel with her corpse to her home town fro lagos. I already sent an advanced party to meet with her family to help calm their nerves. Am only 29yrs old and has never had such an experience before. Family men & ladies, how do i handle this situation?

There's no serious side effects if you do. It's just there culture of making sure all the necessary things the family will get are gotten when they lost a female child.

But they usually do this to those who cohabit their ladies without their blessings or tying the knot.

Are you sure the girl was not impregnated by you and lost her life after an abortion? Or you weren't into an amorous relationship with her?

Whatever you do, I trust those Efiks/Ibibio, their eyes are you now and you would soon be kidnapped to marry the corpse even against your will.

Christianity Etc › Re: Kwara Hijab Controversy: Bishop Oyedepo Tells Muslims To Build Their Own Schools by lordmans(m): 6:15pm On Mar 25, 2021

I quite disagree with Baba Oyedepo on this.
And it's unfortunate the unnecessary hoopla from this hijab thing and the intentions of some divisive elements in using it to create disharmony among people who earlier enjoyed cordial relationship with each other. It's also unfortunate seeing the insults hurled at the Muslim population in Ilorin.

Before we form our opinions let's first dissect the bone of contention in the whole saga.

Primary and secondary schools in Nigeria are either classified as Federal government funded like the federal government colleges, State funded (this form a big chunk of the schools in Nigeria which made them 'Public schools' - and entrance isn't by common entrance exams like the federal colleges), the Private funded, usually refered as Private schools and the Religious or Theological schools.

All schools in the realm of the federal and state funded irrespective of origin are termed Government and Public schools because the Government pays the teachers, non teaching staffs and as such manage them through the Teaching Commission or whichever name they chose to call such Commission. Promotion, welfare, pensions of the staff lies with the State. In such schools all are free to attend irrespective of creed or fate without fear of harassment from no-one even if the person is of minority group or religion.

In the private schools they are more driven by profits, yet the state still have input in the form of government policies and regulations. But in a Theological school, the administering religious institution makes the law. And I believe no person of other religions will want something different in that school because it was purely built for religious purpose of that religion. And no muslim student who think of wearing hijab in a christian seminary nor would a christian not conform with the Muslim equivalent.

If the schools in question in kwara state fall under the category of state funded as I described
above the main originator of the whole problem should be tried for subjecting those female muslim students to some form of discrimination based on their religious beliefs in a public school. The noise are totally unnecessary cos they never seek for other female students of other faiths to wear hijab but themselves and are not violating the rights of non-hijab wearing students in anyway.

In a true secular state, even the right of the minority or their beliefs are to be protected, even if they're not more than 5% of the population. The school could have responded with an acceptable design and color to match the uniform. And besides there might be an ulterior motives by those who started this noise afteral.

It is high we stopped the divisive activities of all these religious bodies CAN, MURIC etc in our daily activities. They should go burn in hell for they cause more harm to our wellbeing than good. Their business thrive on fear, anxiety and acrimony.

Going by the constitution:
Section 38(1) of the Constitution makes provision for the citizen’s ‘freedom of thought, conscience and religion, including freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom (either alone or in community with others, and in public or private) to manifest and propagate his religion or belief in worship, teaching, practice and observance.’

However, these rights are not absolute. The Constitution gives the state power to derogate from them through laws that ‘are reasonably justifiable in a democratic society.’ Specifically, Section 45(1) provides that ‘nothing shall invalidate any law that is reasonably justifiable in a democratic society in the interest of defence, public safety, public order, public morality or public health; or for the purpose of protecting the rights and freedoms of other persons.’

We should see ourselves for the goodness in each other first before the tribe, religion or origin of that person. May the Almighty God shame all the evil people in these country hiding under the banner of religion to exploit the people.

Yet the same tactical operation can't be use against bandits and Boko Haram fighters who lay ambush and kill in devastating casualties of Nigeria military personnel.

The Swift response deployed to get ESN killed unaware was been shelve against killer herdsmen and bandits who kill people unabated.

Who else do we need to know that Nigeria govt is using fulani for ethnic cleaning in Nigeria.

This country must devide.

They will be more effective when coming to the East cos the troop isn't divided by ideology or religion now. The entire security architecture is manned by people who share same affinities.

And boko haram enjoys a high profile operational and intelligent network of isis, and the foot soldiers really don't care about themselves or lives in this world. It was a wrong move to be killing security personnel and carting away their arms by whoever started the madness in the East. The topographical terrain in the East is quite different from the northeast, and believe me it's a good turf for the Nigerian troops.

Peace should return to the southeast, a more tactical approach that could yield fruitful and peaceful results should be employed. The troops will surely search for it's weapons.

He may be correct somehow and no point twisting or getting angry over what the man said. Yes drug abuse cases may be very high in the SW and the victims may not necessarily be indigenous people of the region. Afteral it's a known fact that a big chunk of other Nigerian ethnic groups live in the SW.

So the figure cum statistics quoted include many Nigerians of other extractions. All those aboki okada riders, agberos, cultists, criminals abusing different forms of drugs and others taking them for pleasure live in the SW majorly and so this is expected. So let the man be. We need someone to rid the region of the menace.

Crime › Re: Kidnappers In Niger State Arrested By Soldiers Who Disguised As Passengers by lordmans(m): 8:52pm On Mar 18, 2021

SpecialAdviser:
More of this. Eheeeee. This is how it should be.

My only anger is that they were not shot on sight.
Shebi they said anyone with AK47 should be shot on sight. Am sure they even had better weapon than AK47.
Hope politicians who uses them will not come and do abracadabra and make money exchange hands.

I don't have joy when proven criminals are arrested knowing what Nigeria is.
I only get joy watching their dead bodies. Although I pray the innocent will never be a victim.

The Nigerian troops have done their bit. Had they shot those guys dead immediately same Nigerians who always know all at all time will still blame the soldiers for one thing or another. The soldiers usually get confused with shenanigans like these coming from Nigerians, and at most times in that state they react based on impulse.

Blame the judicial system and the political class for not being able to award commensurate punishment to dangerous criminals and also allowing them to escape justice. The soldiers too are victims or the worst of it in this era of insecurity. For he is demoralized and disenchanted knowing that the dangerous man he's risking his precious life to fight might be on his way to abroad on scholarship tomorrow.

For those always heaping insults on the soldiers, how many of them head in the direction of gunshots? So praise a man who is tasked to face the dangers for you. No-one is perfect.

Lies from pit of hell

Most of them have changed nationality as I learnt. Many swore never to bear or answer a Nigerian again, all thanks to Pa Buhari, a man that was never supposed to leave his village hamlet nor lead his kindred as a local Fulani Jihad cattle rustling gang but got elevated to a fake Army General without educational qualification nor proven record...as if that was not enough another Yoruba man appointed him Minister of Petroleum.

As if that was not enough, another Yoruba man convinced his gullible, tribalistic wicked tribesmen to humiliate a good man; Goodluck and vote in a known failure and terrorist as President to pave way for them to become next President and loot Nigeria dry as they have been busy looting Lagos state.

As if that was not enough after seeing the fake Army General fail woefully in his first tenure as he watched Middle Belt people massacred daily in hundreds by his blood-thirsty kinsmen, the same Yorubas went ahead and massively supported and voted him in for a second tenure and even fought and injured Igbo voters in Lagos who tried to help them realize the disaster this failed fake Army General was.

They mocked Igbos for not supporting their failed fake Army General and rejoiced and danced to the high heavens as they believed that finally they have secured Presidency for either of their tribesmen through the blind, pretentious and wicked support for a man that failed himself, his family, humanity and his maker.

Now look at how the failed, fake Army General is rewarding them. Most of these Omonile killed and fought to ensure he won, but today he has turned them to refugees in their own land.

Yet they keep supporting him just to deceive him into making one of their tribesmen the next President in 2023.

My people, you can fool man but you cannot fool God and nature!

obynzo:
NADECO had Rear Admiral Ndubuisi Kanu, Late Alfred Rewane, Anthony Enahoro and other non-yorubas there it was never solely Yorubas. Abeg stop spinning the narrative abeg.

Rewane was the next leader in line after the demise of Awo. He was of the Action Group, the mainstream political group of the Old West, which gave birth to all the movements rulling in the SW including Lagos till date. And he was of the itsekiri ethnic, one of the yoruboid groups scattered across west africa. The same goes for Anthony Enahoro who was from Edo state. In most of their meetings they conversed in Yoruba. Rewane and Enahoro were revered by the yoruba leaders like Adesanya, Bola Ige, Ajasin despite being from the old west minority groups. Streets were named after them in the SW. Admiral Kanu joined based on ideals and by association, which he may have cultivated during his stewardship in Yorubaland. Action group became NADECO, AD, AC, ACN and a strong element of it formed APC. Pull that movement out of APC today and it will the yoruba appeal forever.

Thanks.

Every Yoruba needs to wake up and be alert to antics of wicked neighbors hell bent on seeing Nigeria collapse. We must not think one-way and accept that any crime of murder on our soil is automatically by Fulanis.

For your information the 6th Aare ona kakanfo, Oyabi was from Ajase cotonou in present day benin republic. He even led an army to destroy the then bashorun Gaa at the behest of his monarch the Alaafin. So their exodus was still to part of their ancestral land.

Crime › Re: Hausa, Northerners Attacked In Oyo By Amotekun & Hoodlums - Daily Nigerian by lordmans(m): 4:22pm On Feb 28, 2021

Crayfish09:
1) Nobody wants your apology, because it stands to fix nothing on the damage. We have gotten your message, and we will reply you in kind.

2) if you call that an apology, then enjoy it but do remember you have much more indigenes in our midst than you do in the south and when the appropriate time comes, you will lose much much more.

3) We also hold no animosity against your people, given the way your women move around half-naked in our streets without consequences. Talking about being treated as a 3rd class citizen, say that to the truck drivers you killed who had nothing to do with the incidence.

4) First of all, you just exposed your bigotry here. A man was attacked in the south, yet you had to replace him with 'Almajiri' in the north because you know, 90℅ of northerners are beggars (this is one of the easiest ways to know a bigot that has never set foot in the north). That said, should a Yoruba man attack a northerner, we would severely deal with the idiot, but I don't see us going around to set the shops of OTHER Yoruba people on fire or killing everybody wearing Agbada.

5)anybody with an iota of sense would know that the attacker would flee the scene as soon as possible, and the leader of the market would have no magic crystal to locate him. Even if he wasn't afraid of Yorubas, he would run to avoid the police.

6) That is a BIG lie. Maybe you should go back to 1948 and open your mind. Was it southern leaders that stopped all of those crises that you are trying to use to justify your barbaric mentality? Was it? Or do you think the people got tired and went home?

7) Nobody would complain, as long as the arrest was made by the police. You people are accusing others of the same crime you have monopolised. Since the time of Obasanjo (I'm talking about the military era), northern leaders have been getting arrested, and heaven did not fall. Your assumptions are all borne out of bigotry and shallow mindedness, I'm sorry to say. If we were half as toxic as you are trying to suggest, we would have started destroying your shops the very first day you people killed the northerners. There is a section in Doca Plaza, Kaduna central market which is almost exclusively occupied by Yoruba people. If we were what you insincere bigots are trying to call us, we would have burnt down that place. Mention ONE.
So my answer to your question is a big NO.

I dare you to mention a single event where your people were attacked and the Northern leaders failed to condemn it. Even the last quit notice we gave to your inyamuri brothers was met with criticism from the northern leaders.

I'm glad that it isn't tied to Tinubu. Because we'll hit him hard .

You displayed more bigotry and arrogance than the person you're trying to correct. And also you made it seem the existence of the North depends on clinching onto power at all cost.

You won't know how the other person feels until you've walked in his shoes. Maybe you don't know or just chose to ignore it there's a kind of lopsidedness in Nigeria that tilts toward the North seriously. One madness begets another.

So what if the SW don't get the presidency?

Is the life of an average northerner better than that of their peers from other parts of Nigeria cos a northerner is in power?

These are just delusions and mirage. You guys can hit Tinubu however hard you think. My belief is strongly in the words of Allah that what He has given no-one nobody can give that person, and that which He has given to a particular person nobody can take it away. If you're a muslim you will know that verse and understand it's import.

The entitlement spirit is corrupting the mindset of even the brightest minds in the North to the point of losing compassion for others or their sufferings. The Yorubas, Ibos, Ijaws, Efiks, Tivs, Idoma and others are people too with blood flowing through them. Every citizen of this country matters and that's how greatness can be achieved not by nepotism, favouritism and segregation. A man from the least populated tribes shouldn't be afraid to rise to his peak.

And what's so special about the presidency if not that it's a tool of blackmail to hold a certain group in servitude by the ruling elites. Do you think the Ibos would have achieved tremendous success in business and technical capacities had they been benefiting like your kinds in government?

Brother, NO!

The circumstances of their ugly experience in the Nigerian project gave them a stronger zeal to succeed irrespective of the odds facing them. And they made good use of that experience by becoming a master of their own fates.

Go outside the country today, you will see Nigerians, predominantly of the southern extractions beating the odds to excel. Yes, good things has its bad sides. Those are the negativity you see about their exploits. Every other nations of the world have theirs, the chinese triads, japanese yakuza, italian mafia, russian mob etc but the envy of the North and the inability of it's controlled govt failed to manage the negativity over the goods of the exploits of these Southern Nigerians.

Anthony Joshua, Henry Akinwande, Wole Soyinka, Cyprian Ekwensi, Chimamanda Adigwe, Samuel Peters, Sade Adu, etc the names are just too many to mention not to talk of the recent ascension of some to political offices in the US, Canada, UK etc.

Is it not best to call for a referendum to put this Nigerian project to test or rest?

If you want us to discuss with sense stop generalizing the North. I'm also disgusted with the Almajiri practice. Those fulani herdsmens are not practicing Islam, they don't pray or fast, they just prefer the name muslim. We don't support them because we are the real victims of their atrocities. In all these chaos the government is the main problem. They failed to address those problems of Almajiri practices, fulani herdsmens, because they just want the vote, not to fix problems. Without law enforcement people can act however they wanted, we blame each other while those who make the law and govern are the failures. But here on nairaland we are not ready for the discussion

Then let's discuss.

First what's the bone of contention?

If the leaders are really the problem, then the enlightened youths should come together to fix the imbalance in the system.

The south, nay the SW is saying enough. Every life is important. We're just deceiving ourselves if we continue to claim the attrocities committed were done by the regular herdsmen. A group of bandits and terrorists are penetrating the south and committing heinous crimes pretending to be herders. And the gullible North is showing solidarity to these criminals all in the name of namu namu.

Some of those serikis are not innocent either. The carnage in sasha was over one dirty illegal alien, and could have been avoided if that Seriki had handed over the bastard to the police for processing. The anger of the community would have been directed at the police if at all for their actions or inactions. But rather he chose to shelter him. All these titles should be abolished and outlaw by the states to avoid unnecessary arrogation of powers to some undeserving idiots.

The runaway Seriki of igangan as expected will speak with both ends of his mouth. Is he not from Ilorin? Mesu jamba they say. Shey he's back at Asa, he should continue to practice his stupid intrigues there.

Things get out of hand everywhere bcoz of the lack of effective response from the security agencies. People don't just take laws into their hands. They do only when the judicial system and administration have failed.

It's time to have state and even local government policing units.

It's a nice seeing those non Yorubas acting in Yoruba and speaking flawless Yoruba. It reminds me of growing up in Ebute Metta and AJ, with others as a family.

What many don't know that some non Yorubas producers like Eddie Igbomah produced great Yoruba movies like Apalara and others, and the owner of NEK Video Link who produced all those Habija and Lalude movies in the early years was an Igbo man. For many years he only produced epic Yoruba movies before he replicated his success by producing Living in Bondage, the first successful Igbo movie.

And little did people know that our own Lagos Bolaji Dawodu directed my cherished Nneka the Pretty Serpent. Seeing Bros like Emeka Ike in Eko Wenjele, and others too like Clarion Chukwura, Lady Regina Chuckwu, Rachael Oniga and others is a thing of joy. They speak and act like a native Yoruba person. It shows we are all one in the eyes of God. You're who you as your environment made you to be.

I'm a Muslim insh' Allah and by his grace I'm quite disappointed at your submission as a Muslim pointing your verbal assault at the entire southwest when you can't even actually pointed out the person you're referring to is actually a Yoruba person. And even if the person was a true believer in the words of Allah wouldn't and shouldn't have responded the way you did.

You actually exposed traits of tribalism and bigotry in you and your personal hatred for the Yoruba race. Are you really a Muslim?

Tribalism is the pernicious and deleterious ideology that afflicts all human societies in every time period. In modern times, we know it as the spectres of racism, xenophobia, supremacism, imperialism, slavery, fascism, genocide and ethnic cleansing. In practice, it rears its ugly head in the shape of prejudice, bigotry, and discrimination.

Allah has commanded us to uphold justice with all other human beings regardless of their race, religion, or identity.

Rather, the religion of Islam teaches us to uphold the rights of all human beings, to walk with humility, and to leave the divine judgment to Allah alone. We would do well to remember the fates of the humble sinner and the arrogant worshipper.

In other words, it is never fair to compare the best of ourselves to the worst of others, lest we fall into the destructive sin of arrogance and braggadocio.

No matter what scheme is used to justify tribalism, whether race, culture, or religion, the outcome is always the same: racist practice. Whoever the tribalists designate as the out-group will suffer prejudice, bigotry, and discrimination meant to enhance the tribalists own privilege at the expense of those they deem inferior. Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi raaji’uun!

The method of tribalism is to issue blanket indictments of an entire race, culture, religion, or group of people. They will condemn an entire group for the crimes of a few, or misrepresent an entire group by only examining its worst elements. Thus, the purveyors of Islamophobia claim all Muslims are terrorists, the purveyors of anti-Semitism claim all Jews are greedy, and the purveyors of racism claim black people are natural criminals and parasites. In every case, the tribalists construct a false caricature of their victims to be the straw man of their vicious attacks.

Islam teaches us to reject such blanket indictments and false generalisations. Some of the Prophet’s companions began to have bad thoughts about all of the Jews and Christians, but verses were revealed making clear distinctions the righteous and unrighteous.

Allah the Most High said:

“They are not all the same. Among the people of the Book (Jews and Christians) is a community standing in obedience, reciting the verses of Allah during the night and prostrating in prayer. They believe in Allah and the Last Day, and they enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong and hasten to do good deeds. Those are among the righteous. Whatever good deeds they do will never be denied, for Allah knows well the righteous.” (Surah Ali Imran, 3:113-115)

It would be wrong to negatively characterise an entire religious group with all its unique individuals and diverse interpretations. For this reason, the Prophet firmly censured the poets of his time who had a habit of excoriating entire tribes.

Aisha reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:

“Verily, the greatest of people in falsehood is a man who insults another man by disparaging the entire tribe.” (See Sunan Ibn Majah, 3761)

In another narration, the Prophet said:

“Verily, the greatest criminal among people is a poet who disparages the entire tribe.” (See al-Adab al-Mufrad, 870)

Servants of Allah!
If we accept blanket indictments of an entire group, then we are making a claim of collective guilt that will ultimately lead to collective punishment, and collective punishment is a crime of war. Islam rejects collective guilt and punishment, in word and deed, as innocent people may never be held accountable for the crimes of others.

Allah the Most High said:

“No soul earns anything except it is upon itself, and none shall bear the burdens of another.” (Surah Al-An’am, 6:164)

Abdullah ibn Mas’ud reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:

“No man is to be punished for the crimes of his father or his brother.” (See Sunan An-Nasa’i, 4131)

So, you coming on this page to attack the southwesterners is bad of you brother. You should know better that there are still some Ummah in their mists.

I have always said we should show love to those non muslims who invade our threads to insult us, our faith and the prophet. The act of Deen is not to lose our senses or calmness just to score a cheap point. The righteous path is distinct from error. May Allah forgive our misdeeds.

Read the expository article on tribalism and it's ills for a better understanding.

Islam › Re: Speaking A White Lie In An Attempt To Reconcile Between People by lordmans(m): 10:51am On Nov 13, 2020

Barka00:
Islam is a religion of lies, Mohammed has succeeded in brainwashing you folks.

Good you've gotten enough energy and drive in you. But it's better you redirect such such burst of energies towards something worthy and meaningful in your life. You focusing on hating is bad for the good health of your soul.

If you're a true christians hear what your holy Bible tells you Luke 6:27-32 “But I say to you who are listening, love your enemies. Do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who are cruel to you. If anyone slaps you on one cheek, offer him the other cheek, too. If someone takes your coat, do not stop him from taking your shirt. Give to everyone who asks you, and when someone takes something that is yours, don’t ask for it back. Do to others what you would want them to do to you . If you love only the people who love you, what praise should you get? Even sinners love the people who love them.

That's that and for the christians saying the kalimat shahada just so they can come to muslim threads to spite Islam and muslims if only they know the implications on their souls would have stopped. You just take a vow or oath with what you don't believe in?

Hear the words of the Bible
If a man vow a vow unto the LORD, or swear an oath to bind his soul with a bond; he shall not break his word, he shall do according to all that proceedeth out of his mouth.
Numbers 30:2

Would it not be wise to leave the muslims to their thing?

Have a blessed day.

Politics › Re: Segun Oduyemi: How To Make The EndSARS Movement Work by lordmans(m): 11:05am On Nov 12, 2020

alfredilly:
The #EndSARS was was born out of Nigerian youth dwmans for fundamental change in the system. Many of the participant started out with the desire to birth a new Nigeria but the protest soon gave way to the sectional interest of some people ans I will put it straight.

The political view of Nigerian youth is partitioned across ethnic line between the pro PDP, Jonathan and anti APC/Tinubu of the south East and the progressive, somewhat indifferent south West. When a south eastern man criticize Buhari regime, he cite Jonathan and PDP regime as the standard for good governance. Most western youth opinion see Buhari as just a continuation of bad government that have been in Nigeria sice at least the return to democracy in 1999. Almost on weekly basis, the South eastern on social media trend Tinubu to drag and spite him as the one who ended the peaceful reign of Jonathan and ochestrated the evil government of Buhari. They accuse Yoruba of being an enabler of bad regime of APC. Most time they were met with scanty responses from Yoruba who counter that the PDP failure gave birth to APC and That the south eastern government are worse off.

The protest that broke out was aimed at forcing the government into making concession that will give power to the people. But in the heat of the protest, the anti Tinubu opinion inundated the media space accusing him of being the sole source of Nigerian problem. That the south Easterner prefer a PDP reign in Lagos is not in doubt.

On the night of the Lekki shooting. The claim that Tinubu own the Lekki toll gate was reinforced with deliberately concocted fake news, videos, edited print and other incendiary message. The whole thing was skewed to ochestrate an anti Tinubu war. It wasn't surprising the following day, when what was initially an organized protest gave way to burning and vandalization of so-called Tinubu asset. The ripple effect created spread to other state, leaving more casualties that the toll gate shooting. After the Mastermind has achieved what they say aa demystification of Tinubu, they back of the brewing Buhari must resign and started singing 2023. The protest was aimed at political goal

And the Nigerian state also did a good job by exposing the political inclinations of some of the major actors of the protest. To truly achieve an effective organising against the govt it's important to have non partisan youths at the forefront. It's also possible for someone to be used to achieve sinister motive against without realizing it.

Any agitation with political undertone is meant to achieve just that. The youths should be very careful not to be used by some groups trying to achieve their own political gains.

lekki1444:
nigga keep quiet. yoruba and benin were allies. i am a product of a benin and yoruba merger in the 1600s when some members of the benin kingdom travelled to ikorodu and merged with the yoruba. till today in ikorodu there are two obas, one oba of benin extraction called the Olisa and then another of yoruba extraction but all the benin people of back then all bear yoruba names now. the commisioner for transport for lagos state Dr Fred Oladeinde and the CEO of polaris bank Dr Tokunbo Abiru are a product of that merger and these two are from ikorodu and have yoruba names now but their heritage is benin from the olisa faamily

You're correct jare my brother. Go to Lagos Island you will find similar history and families. Can he also explain why some families in his Edo have Yoruba names with deep and rich Yoruba meanings? Auchi, Sabogida ora, Owan etc?

Aksnoopy:
If Ile-ife was indeed the cradle of yoruba race, why did ordinary slaves(modakeke) almost wiped them off the surface of the earth?
If ile-ife people are indeed powerful, why did modakeke warrior almost burned down the ooni palace, sacred houses and sites and the whole town.
Ile-ife was saved by warriors/ marcenaries from Ekiti-state.
Don't be fooled, Ile ife and ooni isn't as powerful as you might think.

Pls get your facts right.
The Modakekes are not slaves but descendants of great Yoruba warriors of mostly Oyo extraction. They left for Ife after the carnage visited on their land by the rampaging ILORIN army. It's natural that the then ruler of Ife offered them a parcel of land to settle. Afteral they are Yorubas, and yorubaland belongs to all Yorubas. The war between the two was a misunderstanding that was later resolved. The Modakekes may have tactical advantage over the Ifes cos they are born warriors like the people of Ibadan, while Ife has never been interested in wars not try to annex any other communities like other Yoruba kingdoms.

That war is over and the bad blood has evaporated.
