davidnazee:
Your problem is that u fail to realize that Nigerians are educated and can easily research for information.. your continuous rant about Igalas and nupes does not hold water. They were both defeated by Mighty Benin.
I prefer to stay focused on Yoruba. The Yorubas (including Egba) were conquered and ruled by Benin. Conquering Yoruba was the easiest for us. Your ancestors choose to flee into the bushes when Benin is coming. Your cowardly Men fled leaving their wives and children behind.. you know how many Yoruba men fell inside hole and some drowned while running away from Benin army?
Google is your friend, go research you will see it there. Yoruba too small for Edo..

davidnazee:
God don Dey punish una from beginning of time that’s why you were always conquered.
Lagos is no mans land..
Yoruba for Lagos fit fight? Which fight una don win for Lagos? Na every time Hausa Dey deal with una there na.

davidnazee:
Hey shut your mouth.. Which part of Yoruba land those foreigners hold positions in politics? Please don't say Lagos.. Lagos is for everybody (founded by Benin, settled by Yorubas, developed by Igbos).. It is no mans land.

davidnazee:
See the conquered denying his History..
Do you forget that your forefathers were weaklings who were continually conquered and subjugated?
Great Benin Kingdom conquered and ruled Eastern Yoruba.
Fulani conquered and ruled Ilorin
Nupe conquered and ruled Oyo.

Now the Igbos are taking Lagos away from you, relegating your people to the slums.

I wish more of our people were as enlightened as you. I salute you bro. Are you full Yoruba or are you part Yoruba, part Edo?

To The other tribalists on this thread and on nairaland: Shame on You!
Moorish is thinking reasonably and making peace and trying to unite us, while dimwit lost tribalists are playing into the enemy’s hands, always fighting

Moorish:
Your words emanated from a place of hatred

not reason

I hope we can all conquer the negative energies we have

I also suffer same, so we are in thesame boat

However....

I have chosen the path of peace not confrontation

You are christian I suppose

Your master scribe admonished the path of peace and forgiveness

Try it

You could be a fierce warrior who has killed a many Men

However, even the fiercest warriors were smitten by a baby's smile, or the love of a woman

Love>>>>Hate

davidnazee:
Nobody hates you. You hate yourselves. We only see u as sell outs.

Moorish:
Do you brothers ever ponder on the universal beauty of the black woman?

How does she feel seeing her god the black man subservient to a man he is superior to both mentally and physically?

Just because you gods do not know how to unite and build bridges

For 2000 years us and our fathers getting f.ucked in the ass by mutants we civilized

Wake up black man

shut the Bleep up the north the Igbo all of them are all Yoruba enemy. I know the north well myself and I also know the rest of the tribe too as well. Go to the average street of Yoruba and tell me the Yoruba that “love” northerner thesame north we call aboki and gworo chewer. Only politics bring Yoruba and north together and until 2015 yoruba has made no such alliance with the north check well the history of Nigeria if u are too dumb to know majority of when north rule they mostly have an ibo vice not Yoruba. U do not know the north more than me nor do u know the ibo and other tribe more than me yoruba are in a mess but the solution remain with Yoruba not some enemies called “southern tribe”

davidnazee:
Pained and frustrated fellow.. maybe you should give all Nigerians that Education because all Nigerians know that your Hausa/Fulani masters labelled you Yoruba (meaning bastards and im-beciles).. I wonder why the British even acknowledge that name knowing what it stands for.. abi they agreed that you guys are really worthless?

davidnazee:
Really only Dejis.. haba Yoruba and lies are like brothers and sisters..
Well I have posted some sweet information below for you.

Ewi Amono Ola (1722-1762) beheaded in 1762
Ewi Afunbiowo (1762-1781) beheaded in 1781
Ewi Akulojuorun (1781-1808) assassinated by Benin for political reasons

Oluyin of Uyin sentenced to death by hanging in 1841 for his part in uprising against Benin
Oba of Ado killed for his role in compromising Benin suzerainty in Ado-Ekiti

and many more which I cannot remember now but will update you on them as soon as I can

davidnazee:
If you like promote your art works, its your duty as a Yoruba to do that.. But it doesn`t change anything.. Edo arts are more regarded and revered and renowned than Yoruba arts.. Apart from maybe archaeologists, common people don`t know and have never heard of Yoruba arts..
Edo arts are regarded to be valuable than any Yoruba arts.

Moneywomen17:
shut up there fool another lie made popular by u and ur fellow edo fools. The name Yoruba was first written down in the treatise written by the Songhai scholar Ahmed baba way back in the 16th century when he visited oyo empire to refer to the people of oyo. The oyo told him they were Yoruba and that’s what he wrote down not the other way around. U tell strangers who u are cuz strangers do not name u. Yoruba is only a degrading name to a edo fool like u.

davidnazee:
Universally accepted fact is Great Benin Kingdom conquered and ruled the Yorubas for about 500years..
Benin Kingdom was more advanced than any Yoruba Kingdom.
Oduduwa is an Edo prince.
Better still for us Edo is that the whole world knows this fact as witnessed and documented in early times, unlike the Yoruba history that just started yesterday.

But in this thread facts don't matter.. The Yorubas will not accept the truth about their past as a conquered and subjugated tribe.. So lets leave facts out of it and just stick to name calling and insults.. I have abundance of that for the Yorubas.

For the Yorubas please tell me, why does other Nigerian tribes see you people as a very Useless and Cowardly tribe?
Nobody fears the Yorubas at all..

prolog2:
And the same Lagos was part of Benin Kingdom, that is what thé portuguese maps among others showed. Once again, simple available fact. The portuguese met no awori in Lagos, they met Edos.

BabaRamota1980:
Hey, go back to harrassing Ibo and Fulani and get out of here abeg.

We got this ....get out of here.

To my Edo brothers: none of us should ever insult the Oba of Lagos (the Eleko of Eko):

Denying the truth is capable of turning you into a crazy mofo like obalufon.
He started like most yoruba nairalanders whom are fun of denying the truth while pushing lies, look at him now, he has gone mental ...
Un homme averti en vaut deux.

prolog2:
Only yoruba people believe fighting against the truth is a noble cause.

Olu317:
Just imaging ,who is engaging me? So, you dont know yorubas are in North America? Doubt and google Yorubas in North America. After, you must have done this, You will definitely hate yourself more being Edo because of hatred and jealousy against Yoruba s. Again, you unintelligently inferred about nation as if all the people living in many African nations is homogeneous in nature. I am doubtful of you being studious because a lot of people,who are conversant with Nigeria history know that the Yoruba starting from Cotonou, Ketou/Ketu Atakpame ( IFE Togo) through to Ghana were cut off from their main stream Yoruba ethnicity which was due to land dermacation in 1884/85 by Europeans, does it mean they don't see themselves as people from same Yoruba stock? In fact, Atapkame Call themselves IFE people. This is how much they love associating with their ancestral history . Can such be said about Edos,with the exception of Oba Bini that always associate with Oranmiyan, who was a son of Ogun, one of the sons of Odudua? Mugus as all of are thought Odudua was the father of oranmiyan. Anyway I know the Edo is less than 3,000,000 population ( All the tribes in Edo) because she is a depopulated tribe that has more females than males .

davidnazee:
I’m still trying to think why you yorubas will just take to lying to your fellow Nigerians that know u too well as the most coward and weak tribe in Nigeria..
The only reason I can come up with is that u trying to feel good within yourselves which may be okay for u but doesn’t change the fact that you still a cowardly tribe.

The British governed us directly becos they know if the tried the Egba deal with us we will arm ourselves and bring war to them if given the opportunity. They knew we are warriors and don’t relent in our fight.. unlike the cowardly Yoruba tribe.
