Yea I caught Olu trying to subtly shade us. I haven’t read all the posts, but you seemed to be talking with respect and defending yourself.

Don’t let them provoke you though. This is how ethnic tensions wars start. One group (the Yorubas in this case) start insulting, provoking another for no reason, and then eventually the other finally strikes back, and there you go. There’s tensions

People like babramota1980 are a complete shame to the black race. There’s too many disgraceful men and women that are a cancer to our people

Throughout the last few centuries It’s men like

babaramota1980, That has led to all the ethnic hate and division we have today

Don’t engage in their nonsense
Christianity: show love and bless those that hate you. It’s not easy. But love your neighbor is the most important commandment after loving God
It’s common sense for us to unite

I don’t need Christianity to tell me that

Plus

The hateful tribalists do not speak for our collective tribes

We should be building a formidable empire

Yorubas will be less significant on the world stage if they exit Nigeria

Same with Edo

Igbo

And all the rest

Ok no group is more superior than the other. Tribalism leads to hate and disunity and a divided house cannot stand. Whether we like it or not we people need each other. We have such a vast population of 190 million with so much potential.

If Yorubas and Edos with such similar history, culture, heritage can be fighting each other with the former putting the other down, then I don’t know how we can come together as one, especially with groups that have much different cultures.

The babaramota1980 guy and another guy are the real bad ones. Why won’t there be tensions and fighting in Africa, when people just start excessively insulting others. It takes 2 to tango, but someone has to start it.

I understand your annoyed because you believe your side of history and we believe our side of history. It can be frustrating when you believe the other side is telling tales. But me personally I don’t know which side is correct or which one is the truth. I just know that where brothers and shouldn’t be fighting.

After all 900 years ago Edo and Yoruba were the same tribe

The world doesn’t end in Africa, we have greater enemies out there in the world, we have to put our differences aside and come together and build
I concur bro

We Africans need to find solutions to our collective problems

Not tearing eachother down further

Steve ekaladehran,
Compare the Alake with this guy here...

This guy has a message for you... The position of the mask is a message for you. If it pains you that he wears this mask on his blokos go and snatch it back.

I tell you man, Igalas are bast3rds. grin
They dont talk....they just act!
You have been very witty with your insults

Hence I took notice of you

But that joke is now overplayed

Now look at his head carefully. He wears the Mali turban. Not the dan fodio turban. grin

But you dont know the difference because you are uncivilized in the political affairs of West Africa.
You make a sound point

I heard the Malians built the first mosque in "Yoruba" territory long before Dan fodio's madness began

Moorish, OK.

All that needs to be said has been said.

Not all yorubas are suckers, though there are many of whom are just as has been clearly proved here.

I think you are among the reasonable ones. I see how these horde of pigs attack you for towing the line of sanity.

It does no good to anyone to continue engaging these cretins.

Again, all that needs to be said, have been said.
I actually enjoy the educational expositions

All of you from both camps are superior to me in this historical knowledge

The good thing is both camps have strong evidence for either position

It just shows me that our collective Oyo and Edo ancestors influenced each other mutually

We are the next rulers of this land

Do you know the meaning of tuba?
Oya so fun Edo ko wa tuba.

If this means that much to you tell Edos to come confess their witchery and commit never to bother Yoruba again.
Two wrongs can never make a right

My heart bleeds for the black nation

If we were as useless as our enemies desperately want us to think

I would have given up

But I have ancient proof of our greatness

I can never give up

Even if only 1% hear and accept

Would you consider uniting and making peace with all black men and women today?

We need to unite

We need to keep the focus on the pale skinned imperialistic of the northern hemisphere who is secretely pulling the strings in africa

Sucking our resources in return for a worthless paper

He never built a worthy civilization

Ever!

Kush, Kemet, Benin, Oyo, Mali, Abbysinia, Shinar, Sumer, Babylon, Akkad

That was true nationhood

The man of sin, as name suggests is only a master of war, blood and pillage

He has 6000 years to rule

But we must prepare for industrialization

show this child how it is really done!

Our yellow brothers in the east will break bread when the time comes

Nippon, royal Japan

China

Dude, you say you belong to both Yoruba and Edo. For the forseeable future, starting now, you need to camp on Edo side. Join over there so your conscience no longer trouble you.
Nigg*as like you can never understand

I lived in a racist and oppressive England for close to a decade

Brothers fed, fought and banded together

If Edo is glorified, it is good for the black peoples

If Oyo rise, same

I have since learned to accept all original nations of the holy blacks as mine

Let us stop tearing each other down please

We need power, we need weapons to rise again as a sovereign race

The American power complex became so from Natural gas

Power, Domestics and Industry

The Edos you so much loathe have s.hit loads of very resource under their grounds in oben, edo state

Yorubas run the economic capital

We need to collaborate before it is too late!

We all need eachother

Origin of itsekiris..
The itsekiris first migrated out of Igodomigodo and settled along the coasts of ondo with the Ilajes.. hundreds of years later offsprings of these first immigrants decided to return home, sailed along the coasts and settled in present day itsekiri lands.
If the itsekiris come out to say they are not Edo but Yoruba the urhobos and ijaws will immediately chase them out of that area being Edo is why they are able to remain there.
Ok, so their sojourn in ondo lands would probably explain the linguistic similarities with "Yoruba" languages

That is a plausible arguement

The awujale claimed they migrated from his region thohuh

Well, pardon my ignorance

You could be right here, so I would not argue on this particular point

The longest I have spent in non-metropolitan "YorubaLand" I.E Non Lagos Yoruba Land....

is 2 weeks

So I do not know how things happen out there

in any case

should the war truly break out

I would not hesitate to break bread with cultured Yorubas who have accepted me as a yoruba due to my Patriarchal Yoruba descent

I would also defend my Edoid brothers who treated me fairly as an immigrant

And I would honor my mothers side, the hausa-fulani who do have some very kind and honest humans in their ranks

The igbos have some light skinned women I like to bone, so I will also go easy on them grin grin grin

Itsekiris are not Yorubas..
I have always wondered about this

Although classed as an Edo tribe, the Itshekiri clearly speak a Yoruboid languagehuh?

However they are largely an Edoid tribe

So much so it was them who the oba of benin used in the succesfull punitive attack on lagos island

they formed the naval force by the way

So "Yorubas" do not be ignorant of this

When push comes to shove, the itshekiris will side with other Edoid groups

As personally witnessed by me.. in that unfortunate childhood experience of mine

The thing we fail to realise about war is

how do you fight a weak army using 9 warships, 2000 British marines and 10,000 soldiers?

FYI, I hope you don’t really believe Benin fought using bows and arrows lol.

I share a skin color with the Fulani but they are a bigger enemies to me than someone from Scandinavia could ever be to me. Skin color doesn’t make us brother get that into ur thick skull
Well, I disagree

My experiences say different

Of the many travails I experienced in Edo territory

One incident stands out

A so called itshekiri man I would not mention his name I dunno who views these threads

This man was 10 years my senior

Beat me up almost an hour of punishment, over an innocent mistake

I taught I would die

Being an only son in a foreign land

I could not react for fear of a reprisal attack on my sisters and family

So I cannot agree with you that itshekiri people will always have my back

Because my experiences tell me different

That same itshekiri "brother" set me up in a robbery years after again
