How come your izoduwa didn't speak ogodomigo language? Were they wearing robe in ogodomigodo? My Ancestral Adua was a robe wearing man when established at ILE IFE. Do ogodomigodo even have a language? Ubini was Yoruba word and owned by Yoruba ethnicity either you like it or not. Despite your hate and your likes. Yoruba keep marching on to prosperity.

tammie24:
how is a runway going to cost 5billion dollars

Think about it

Even dubai hotel Burj Al Arab cost 1billion dollars to build

Let's Stop deceiving ourselves Abeg
Simple,when you add the total cost to execute the work at 1$billion with the percentage of the contractor as well as the minister and his lieutenants who awarded the contract,you will get your 5$billion deal accurate. When you subtract 1$billion from the money for execution of work, then you are left with a balance of 4$bllion and when you remove the 200% of the minister and 100% of his lieutenants then you are left with contractor's 100% workmanship.That z d calculation when you calculate from the 500% inflated price of the contract from Nigeria's factor tendency. cool grin

Yes.The language, same pronounciation etc but twisted tongue. Migration has to be the reason for most people of all facet of life at one point or the other in time but they are indigenous now.

JBismarck:
Nice try bro. But, believe me, it didn't work. Yorubas don't relate with one another based on religion hence the almost non-existence of religious tension in the SW. Your divisive strategy cannot weaken a bond that cut across religious divides which is over 2 centuries old.

Who tells you by removing Muslim Yorubas is a guarantee for exponential development in the SW? That's a fallacy. Okay, where is the development in the SE that is predominantly Christian?
let people like alBHAGDHADI continue to whimp up hatred but it is not for us YORUBAS.Let them shout from early hours of the day till infinity, it is their cup of tea. Yoruba think of family, friendship and love ABOVE all. We do disagree among ourselves but not to death. We do not interchange money for Elder's respect. They are the ones that place wealth over Eleder's respect. Yoruba nation forever.

The foolish British Empire tried to separate Lagos from Yoruba people but the dynamism of men of wisdom of Yoruba used their pens when the fire power of British was stronger and they chased British colonialist away thus Yoruba did Sustained Lagos. And now some people called themselves Nigerians want to kill themselves because Lagos belong to Yorubas people. They kept crying like a rabid bitten children. Awa ni ani okun awa ni ani osa.

How did they choose yoruba, but not Fon? Yorubas are a minority in benin. Is this news true
Do you even know fon or fongbe have Yoruba words inserted into their language and spoken by them with same meaning. It is basically impossible to use fon. Yoruba language is widely spoken in Bénin Republic even if some of them don't call themselves Yorubas. They are called with different names depending on their location. Ahori/Anago/yoruba. Dahomey kingdom had centuries relationship with Yoruba kingdoms. And present day Bénin Republic borders Yoruba people of Togo and of Nigeria.

I don't think do know the difference between Yoruba and Ibo people. If you don't, you better do some deep research on it. I am 100% blooded YORUBA and am proud crazily about it anywhere in the world. And I can categorically tell you that all the rumour been peddled to you all via the internet are basically CRABS. Let me ask you one basic economical question that I expect you to be rational about?. How is it possible for Lagos State to be the third largest economic power in Africa? That solves the riddle. So don't belong to the group that are less informed about Lagos State in Nigeria. Information can be sent to the internet for various reasons and by who determines how authentic the information is. The first and third richest men in Africa lives in Lagos State. Aliko Dangote and Mike Adenuga. Get the drift ?

I SEE YOUR POINT THOUGH THERE IS AN ASPECT YOU DIDNT PUT INTO CONSIDERATION. IT IS ON MIGRATION TENDENCIES. DURING IRON AGE, MANY OF ILE IFE PEOPLE MIGRATED TOWARDS THE EAST VIA KABBA AND BINI THUS INTRODUCE SOME YORUBA RELIGION SUCH AS IFA WHICH THE IBOS CALLED EFA.THIS WAS AS A RESULT VIA OLUKUMI AND THE LIKES. AND CONTACT WAS ESTABLISHED WITH YORUBA BUT YORUBA HAVE ONE VERY STRONG BELIEF ABOUT THEMSELVES BECAUSE OF THEIR SELF ACLAIMED SUPERIORITY. THIS IS THE REASON GENERATION TO GENERATION. YORUBA FAMILY KEEP REFERRING TO THEIR PLACE OF ORIGIN AS ILE IFE (YORUBA LAND) NO MATTER THE LOCATION WHERE THEY FIND THEMSELVES IN DIASPORA, EITHER VIA ANCIENT SLAVE TRADE OR GREENER PASTURE PURPOSE. ARE THE YORUBA THE ONLY GROUP WHO WERE TRANSPORTED AS SLAVE? CAPITAL “NO",YET THEY ARE THE ONLY WELL PRONOUNCED PEOPLE RECONNECTING TO ILE IFE .THIS IS THE POINTER TO RESEARCH

GBOGBO been used by OyO was borne out development of Yoruba language in the olden days and borrowed words from other Ethnic groups .It is just as Lagos been developing heavily a modem Yoruba language more modern than OyOs of this world and being accepted majorly now by all Yoruba speaking groups Please don't follow the footsteps of some people who tried to compare Yoruba language to Ibos with similarities because Yoruba language has in it many languages either of semetic/asiatic/egytians etc and also with our neighouring tribes but are quite different in many ways.Words in Yoruba can be spelled as same in Ibos but doesn't mean the same. I have seen journal online /documents written before 19th century with the use of the word “Igbo"was solely used by Yoruba nation. Until around 1920s or 1930s that Ibos changed the name associated with them which was written as Igbos OR IBOS .Yoruba language are different with due respect because it is enshrined in IFA EULOGY/Praise . Even Ebira that has been Yoruba neighbour for thousands of years are known by ancient Yoruba people as different from them.

IT IS SAME IN A WAY .. FOR INSTANCE. IF ONE IS ACCUSED OF JUMPING OVER THE WALL, OGIRI IS MORE MODERN THAN IGANNA. IT CAN BE INTERCHANGE FOR EACH OTHER. FOR INSTANCE IF IT IS SAID AS ..O FO IGANNA..IT IS JUMPING OVER A WALL OR FENCE IN AWAY. DO YOU UNDERSTAND? WALL'S DEFINITION is a barrier or a continuous upright structure forming a side of a building or enclosing or dividing an area of land While FENCE is a barrier made of wire or wood enclosing an area. Though WALL IS more definite but both are synonyms when defined. .

gentlegenius:
Since no one here is willing to give any sensible advice to the OP, I'll like to offer mine:
1. Sex always starts from the mind before it involves the body. So she is a nympho because she always occupies her mind with sexual thoughts due to loneliness or idleness. I suggest you find her a job or something else that will keep her busy. Also, get her some good books and movies whenever you expect her to be lonely.
2. When you are exhausted during love making and she keeps asking for more, learn the other ways of satisfying her sexually without penetrative intercourse. If you know other methods of pleasing a woman in bed without using your dick then Google is your friend...
Hope this helps.
Well done effort. I admire your heart. Stay blessed

ImperialYoruba:
Dede, to mean all, is actually used broadly in Yorubaland.

I told someone last week to stand by the "iganna" and she had no clue what iganna is. A 30yr old Yoruba woman. I asked if she knew what "aja" is, no clue of that either.

Iganna is wall. If i said ogiri she knew that. Aja is loft. If i said oke she knew that.

It is pity no one has followed behind the good works of Bishop Crowther and evolve Yoruba grammar and syntax for better enrichment and usage within the commonwealth.

Good job to OP reaffirming bonds and kinship.
That is decadence to which ancient Yoruba word are being thrown away. Iganna simply mean “wall" and when you direct someone to stand beside the wall duo or du ro si ibi/ara/égbé iganna. God help us ooo. Young people are really loosing the Yoruba language and I hope our Yoruba anguage won't be whipped out of existence due to Nigeria. The Yoruba people in diaspora of whom either as a result of slave trade or self imposed exile for greener pasture look unto the YORUBA PEOPLE AT HOME TO PUT THEM THROUGH. I sincerely hope Yoruba people will do justice to this damning problem. And salvage the language.

like 60% of Yorubas use a form of dede
Ekitis (Including Akure and Idanre) have it transformed into Kete, Owos into Gede, Ikales and Ijebus as Dede.

I believes the Oyos are the ones that say "Gbogbo" and that was the form that caught on with modernity.... Ajayi crother effect at work.
ABEOKUTA USES IT TOO.. OYO WAS THE PLACE WHERE ANCIENT YORUBA LANGUAGE ALMOST PAVED WAY FOR THE NEW ONES BUT THE RURAL PEOPLE WHO WERE THE ARCHAIC SPEAKERS REFUSED BECAUSE YORUBA LANGUAGE IS MORE CODED IN IFA EULOGY.TAKE FOR INSTANCE,ELEDUMARE NEARLY CHANGED TO OLODUMARE, IRE TO IWO, BA/BAA (FATHER) TO BABA (BAARE-YOUR FATHER) BAMI/UBAMI/BAA MI(BABA MI) (MY FATHER), words like èri(ori)èriki(oriki)Elua(Olua/Oluwa) Yè/YeYe(MOTHER)IYA-yeire(your mother) etc. Truly Bishop Ajayi crowther and Rev. Samuel Johnson were the ones that did it though credence must be given to them to standardize the language inline with OYO NASAL PRONUNCIATION.

The Yoruba tribe constitute almost 21 % of the population of
Nigeria and this translates to about 40 million people.
They inhabit the southwestern part of Nigeria but also live in other
countries in West Africa including Benin, Ghana, Togo and
surprisingly, the Caribbean. They are well involved in arts and
have a long history of poetry and between 1100 to 1700, they
made impressive bronze sculptures, most of which were made to
represent the heads of gods and rulers. They also made lots of
beadwork, metalwork, weaving and mask making.

jidxin:
The Yoruba tribe constitute almost 21 % of the population of
Nigeria and this translates to about 40 million people.
They inhabit the southwestern part of Nigeria but also live in other
countries in West Africa including Benin, Ghana, Togo and
surprisingly, the Caribbean. They are well involved in arts and
have a long history of poetry and between 1100 to 1700, they
made impressive bronze sculptures, most of which were made to
represent the heads of gods and rulers. They also made lots of
beadwork, metalwork, weaving and mask making.

sanmibukunmi:
actually the issue of 'Dede' is no difference to me....in omawummi's song, she said the phrase "ewo omo were Dede "..... I knew exactly what she meant because Dede and omi are both words spoken in ijesha accent which I am from. I haven't come in contact with an ilaje before but I have heard itshkiri and I quite pick up most of their words when spoken slowly....
“Dede" is an ancient word used by all Yoruba groups. But due to language development,some give way for new ones though the rural speakers of Yoruba dialects still uses it and many other ones . Another EXAMPLE IS “fó"(speak/say ) or ko fó(what do you say?) mo fó(I say or speak) which has given way to... Sò (speak /say) ki lo sò (what do you say?) mo sò ( I say/speak)the latter is adhere to because it is mostly spoken/ used in Yoruba cities..Virtually all ancient Yoruba words are spoken by all Yoruba groups but due to twist in tongue in pronunciation make it look difficult to city people but rural people converse among themselves irrespective of the clan each comes from.

Nigeria isn't a place like every developed countries where criminals such as assassins can be brought to justice. I am yet to read any of such success stories. Beside there is no smoke without fire. It isn't worth it trying to unravel a riddle of such magnitude while risking your own life. In a country where there is heavy value placed on lives and properties, such task can be achieved.
