Please stop this ignorance.

No scientific, genetic or anthropological or philological evidence that Benin are closer to Yoruba. The absence of a major natural barrier comparable to River Niger on the West side made human and cultural flow inwards and outwards on the west side of Edo way easier than on the East side.

Recent studes show some similarities in Yoruba & some Easn people BUT not in Benin people. A Yoruba person put the link on this culture section sometime ago.
While people like me have a proudly dual Benin & Yoruba heritage, Benin people people generally are not inherently closer to Yoruba than they are to Igbo. Peoplemust remember that Benin City still has a higher population of Igboid/Anioma people than Yoruba. Statewide, Yoruboid Ado-Akure people in Edo still won't seriously outnumber Igboid people.

Benin, Igbo, Yoruba and many tribes along the Southern side of West Africa including Ewe, Gbagyi, Nupe & Fon people belong to this East Kwa/Volta-Niger/West Benue-Congo branch of the Niger-Congo group linguistically.

People actually spend careers of 35 to 50 years studying these things. Travelling, studying and researching both historical and contemporary realities. Not seat somewhere and spew ignorantly parroted assumptions.

I have met so called educated Igbo calling Edo people Yoruba. I have also met Yoruba who would claim over education and sophistication saying anyone after Ore is Igbo. Some are over 60 years old even in diaspora.

zik did a book on that. Go figure

Fantastic, just fantastic. Frm what i know people who refer to themselves as nsukka cover seven LGA in enugu. That's roughly over half of the state LGA. It jus' kinda weird to group so many ndigbos as igala, prolly as a result of meagre traces of igala names such as idoko and asogwa, which may nt even be up to 2% of it's actual population.

like I told you earlier, I'm from Nsukka and I know a bit of my history. Nsukka people migrated from Igala. This is simply a fact.

LordFarquaad:
Are u frm nnewi, onitsha, or nsukka ?

You can say that again, lost my eldest sister on Monday after a stupid guy robbed of her possessions (money and phone) without any form of resistance from her ,yet he proceeded to stab her . This life is just crazy

Rip ogechi , it wasn't meant to end this way

lost my youngest sibling this past week Wednesday. We buried her two days ago but believe me, her pain and void is immeasurable. It was an accident

It needs your 100% attention unless people especially your workers will loot you dry.

Someone else will have something else to say

You sound like a troll. No advise for you

You don't know pain until you lose a sibling via sudden death

I boy this country na cruise oh. On auto pilot cruise

The biggest problem young women face is older women and not men

ImFortress:
Nope.... Been using my locked g8 for almost 2 months now...
No limit just the calls and text only.

Just get a dual SIM LTE enabled smart phone with good battery as hotsop. For me, it's Nokia 5, dual SIM. Rocking Glo 3k 17gb

how much did you get the Nokia for

Ekemeze:
Nice one Op.

that was some critical thinking. but trust me scientist will surely manoeuvre through your question and may likely ended up confusing you the more. Avoid atheists on nairaland, they won't answer your questions without insulting you and also make u feel less of a human. FLEE!! There are toxic.


It's safe and better to believe that there's a creator. HE made all things, good or bad for reason(s).

Afterall, you will lose absolutely nothing at the end of the day if u discover that there was no creator, but imagine meeting someone after death, and he claim to be your maker, meanwhile u didn't believe in his existence when you were alive. Lol.

No atheist should quote me.

GOD'S ALIVE!

seriously. Imagine dying as a Christian and you realize that Buhda is the one true God and you didn't worship him when you were alive

ImFortress:
Updating your TMobile locked G8? You're in soup.
You better keep enjoying your WiFi phone oh cause the more you update, the less chances you have to Unlock it.
TMobile get craze, don't mess with them.
I'm using a T-Mobile G8, I avoid updates like HIV.
I learnt this lesson on my S9 plus, but thank Goodness, Samsung's aren't that difficult to unlock but it cost me more cause I updated

I already gave up on unlocking the phone since na. I'm out to get the best out of the situation

Some Nigerians believe that the government is over reporting the cases to loot resources. Please note that the numbers are under reported because Nigeria doesn't have the resources to test and manage positive cases.

Nigeria politicians can loot without excuse so they don't need coronavirus as excuse.
Have you asked yourself why was and school resumption were cancelled indefinitely. Young people are the carries of this virus and are mostly asymptomatic while the old people are the ones who develop symptoms and die. Imagine the scenario when these kids go home with the said virus

Even serial entrepreneur Ifediaso Nnewi aka Innoson isn't worth that much sef. Oga stop quoting numbers please

Pompoms:
Good day, all.
Maximum respect to the elder statesmen here.

I have some pressing questions, please.

1. Are there any guidelines for hiring on this section? I'm about to contract someone and I'm trying to be very careful.

2. I'm looking for sample pictures of front and back doors. The ones I've been seeing are shiny/glistening. I don't really dig those.
The front door will be temporary, we intend to change it when the project is completed. But back door, permanent.

3. What makes a functional, beautiful , modern/contemporary kitchen? I've been asked what I want but can't really put my thoughts together. What are the basics, please? I would appreciate pictures too.

Thank you very much.

which of the OUK. How many dollar billionaires dey Nigeria as a whole. Dem no reach ten and no Igbo man dey there.

You want to learn about anaedo, I suggest you start from learning about ezemewi

Faber:
They have more than 550 professors ...but only one billionaire...out of over 100 dollar billionaires in Nnewi, Anambra State, will feed, employ and pay them handsomely...


Your education is trash if e no improve ur standard of living and that of your future generations

name a single person in Nnewi that is a dollar billionaire. In fact name a single Igbo person who's worth a billion dollars.

I'm born and bred in Nnewi so I know Nnewi more than you will ever know

Noel19:
I want to ask you a question? What is the job of the Nigerian Army intelligence Unit? Why was it set Up? Do you think soldiers will just wake up and start attacking their target without carrying out intelligence? Pls, don't limit yourself, read and Carry out your investigations before saying things in public. Nigeria is a very corrupt country and so are the leaders. Have you ever asked yourself this question, why is the Nigerian govt so interested in freeing captured Boko Haram fighters all in the name of repented Boko Haram?

your hate for Buhari and Nigeria is making you blind to facts.

Nigeria intelligence unit you say. Are they as equiped as a standalone unit like NSA. NSA does intelligence gathering. Army works with the intelligence. DSS prosecute the factors involved in the intelligence

Noel19:
Shut up your dirty fucking mouth. If you don't know anything it's better you keep quiet than exposing your stupidity in public.

So for your mind, soldiers will just wake up and attack Boko Haram without gathering information?

It's like when you start supporting APC you'll immediately lose your sense of reason.

I'm not here to fight with you. Go and read up on the duties of the army. Should the army take up investigation and exposing of the terrorists, what then is the job of the DSS and NSA

That's exactly the truth. It's like the army usurping the duties of the CIA and NSA.

My sister died yesterday.

God should give me a reason for her death

CAPSLOCKED:
THERE ARE PARTS OF ABUJA, KADUNA, AND LAGOS THAT THE PRESIDENT CAN SLEEP ON THE ROAD IF HE WANTS AND NOBODY WILL EVEN LOOK AT HIM.


THERE ARE PLACES IN BELGIUM THAT THIS GUY CANNOT ENTER WITHOUT SECURITY ESCORT OTHERWISE HE WILL BE MOBBED AND KILLED.


ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT WE MAY BE BAD, BUT WE'RE NOT THE WORST AT EVERYTHING.

one of the best comments I have seen on Nairaland

Another misyarn from a supposed educated man. This man is nuts already

jidamsel43:
Please, keep your mouth at peace if you can't understand the simple arrangement and strategy of the government.

How long will the schools be under lock?

When do you the virus will stop spreading?

Should we wait until we find the cure before our pupils back to school?

Most pupils are attending lessons that have more than 50 pupils in attendance.

Japan, USA, South Korea all opened their schools only to close them under a week. We haven't even been able to control responsible adults. Na kids we want to control

The parents hold the key to this stupid policy. Don't allow your kids to go to school lets see how it will work out.

Imagine the stupid government saying they are ready for any eventuality. Na so the federal government brag now see what we're suffering
