Culture › Re: When Jesus Spoke Yoruba by Olu317(m): 5:10pm On Oct 02, 2016
Have you not seen in the Bible Obadiah name?, Yoruba had Obatala, Obalufon, Obalufe. Doesn't it make sense to those that claims Hebrews blood?, we don't need to claim anybody's blood lineage because we are a proud Race with all it take to be among the best in the world .But the white have never stopped doing heavy research on Yoruba Race that have the highest ancient Israelites traditions. We didn't even have time to calls ourselves Hebrews and yet some of the most anointed men of God Africa are Yoruba blood, shouldn't Yoruba be thankful to God for giving us everything?,Yes we are thankful. If some of you believe your culture is closer to Israelites then Read “Origin of Yoruba and “the lost tribes of Israel" by Dierk Lange (a German ) so don't even think a white man will be biased on his findings. Enjoy the book and see who we are. Even if we are yet to fully acknowledge our position in the world.
Politics › Re: 20 Unpopular Facts About Nigeria You May Have Never Known. by Olu317(m): 4:29pm On Oct 02, 2016
The Western Nigerian Television commence broadcasting in October 1959 in Ibadan. And this was as a result of the John McPherson constitution which was adopted by the same person in 1953 who was the Governor General of Nigeria in the 50s for Nigeria to use as it constitution . Then, the legendary sage Late obafemi Awolowo criticise the constitution which fell short of the aspiration of the Nigeria people. The Governor General in the person of John McPherson went on the federal radio station in 1953 to counter such claim by Chief obafemi Awolowo and when Chief Obafemi wanted a rebuttal (contrary view) to the governor general,on the federal radio station he was not given the opportunity to do so in the federal radio station which brought about the ratification in the house of parliament in 1954 to establish Regional broadcasting outfit. Then the idea began immediately in 1954 and by October 1st 1959, the western Nigeria established it own television station and the Eastern part of Nigeria in the same vein of October 1960 of the following year ,established its own while the northern part of Nigeria established it own in 1961
Culture › Re: How Yoruba Language Originated From Urhobo Language by Olu317(m): 2:28pm On Oct 02, 2016
wonders shall never end on the abuse and all sort of names that many people of Edo extraction have melted out to to people of IFE who had different names before settling down for means of recognition as Yoruba Race . However, I am really surprised at some people ranging from the word “Oba" that had existed as a leader /ruler's name/title before the advent of Oranmiyan going to ogodomogo in Present day Edo, where he called the place a vexed land “Ibinu"a Yoruba word turned to Bini in today's Edo. We haven't finished contesting the struggle over Oba title which preceded the emergence of the second Oba of Bini if you want to agree with me, the first being oranmiyan,himself while Owoka (Eweka) which literally Mean ,my hands encompass, his son was the second king after the father left which perhaps may be the reason, THE FIRST SON TO BE KING NEVER SEES OR MEET his father in person till the father dies with fact as there Existed Obatala, obalufe, Obalufon etc before meeting the Bini or even Of Ododuwa that Edo people claimed to be their own. Then another minor group of Edo extract that claimed to see Yoruba in the ancient times as Demi-god came up with another grandmasters lies of Yoruba being called uncivilized people (Bush people ) when in actual fact Itsekiri was larger than urhobo subgroup in 14th/15th/16th century. But due to more polygamous nature of urhobo men whom in those ancient time were men lazy men who were ethanol tappers and drinkers.. I am tired of these rubbish being spread by unread people in Nairaland. Where were your great grand fathers when the war against the Yorubas were orchestrated by Nupe/ Borgu /Dahomey /Ashanti kingdom? even to the ravaging Islamic jihadist during Aare onakankanfo Afonja's betrayal to Oyo ile or the Yoruba civil war that lasted 16yers in which Britain didn't do anything but watched from the fence until 1893 that truce was signed among the same group through the same Britain after many lives had been lost,you were not mentioned at all either against or for ,even the ITSEKIRI played a role but you were in the bush ,tapping wine/ ogogoro (sapele water) . Urhobo that were nobody now come out spill trash on Yoruba Race. Urhobo that Awolowo and other great Yoruba leaders and included very limited Edo extract had helped to become educated today in western Nigeria through free education in 1950s whom were not exposed to civilization in the 1900s are now churning out irritated thread of this manner. Go and Challenges ITSEKIRI first very close to you whom are a sub Yoruba grouping before you come out with your filthy mouth to insult my Race. If N'DIGBO of BIAFRA during the civil war of 1967/1970 don't see you URHOBO as nothing but a piece of CAKE to capture during the war , but Yoruba as a problem to their secession,then The answer is Right before ALL of YOU. May God help you urhobo wayoo, Amin.
Culture › Re: Yorubas From Ijebu Are Descendents of North Sudan's Nubians by Olu317(m): 4:41pm On Oct 01, 2016
I want to believe the satanic sent against the Yoruba has begun to manifest again like the way Afonja was used to dismantle Yoruba royal empire of oyo ile. However, many of the stated information about the possibility of migration could be true by few elements among the ijebus just like the Alimi migrated to Yorubaland of oyo before resettlement with Afonja who used him as his servant and you all know how the story ended. As far as am concerned Yoruba kingdom either in the southern part of Yorubaland ,Eastern part nor Northern part doesn't have link with IFE. Having said this, I want to stay focus on this issue because some leaders need to be read before they come forth with information that's not real. If in reality, ijebu migrated to the present Yoruba region from waddai then some questions must be asked and answers given to Yoruba people as a whole. I strongly desire those of us believing waddai story should help us know which is true? is the founder of ijebu of waddai older than sungbo kingdom in eredo?,did the founder met Yoruba people on ground? why is the Yoruba dialect spoken and not waddai 's?, waddai kingdom is less than 500 years, what's the family name borne by these waddaites when they came to Yoruba land?, Was there any record of these people engaging the Yoruba people in war before settling down with the former?, Did they pass through IFE before going to the present day Ijebu ode? And on the issue of migration,it is true that Africa is the birth place of mankind although not necessary the birth place of Yoruba people who were formerly called “usere magbo" which was Yoruba name of ancient times. Irrespective of whatever anyone says, we Yoruba know that some very few elements which are insignificant in numbers got married to Yoruba people(women/men),settled down in our midst and became part of us which was the reason the Yoruba elders says “Omo ki ni Ile Baba ki o ma ni ti Iya”. Furthermore your oriki will tell you who you are and linking you through your family panegyric to IFE where your ancestral oriki came out. Then you can start thinking if you are from waddai or not. Lastly people having borrowed culture doesn't mean they are from the same place. Can you say because Fulani colonised Hausa, then they are the same tribe?, kindly leave Nigerian politics alone,because they are different from one and another.

Even ,you as the writer could sleep and not wake up tomorrow morning, I, myself not left out of it l.

What's this vice president of India talking about and emulating Aminu Kano in Yoruba land?, ABSOLUTELY rubbish because he doesn't no Nigeria at all. Perhaps he refers to the Hausas or Fulanis whom are the ones to emulate Aminu Kano.

Politics › Re: The Question Before The Yoruba Nation by Olu317(m): 7:29pm On Sep 29, 2016
it is pathetic with the manner in which some very few elements in the midst of APC are making Ashiwaju Achmed Tinubu look as if he doesn't have weight and I really thank you people for your effort going through history of 1965 when wild wild west(wetie ) happened. These elements don't always see the handwriting on the wall and I hope they can learn from history because I truly can not find the touch of late Akintola in today's Yoruba but Awothesis still exist in practicability. Let Akeredolu know that truth is one of the greatest philosophy on which Yoruba Race is based and it has never been said that people hadn't perverted it but what does history record about the truth pervert?.I don't have any iota of doubt the Akeredolu being the flag bearer of APC in ONDO which was done via fraudulent manipulation. And genuinely I will want Jagaban to sheathe his sword as there is an adage yorubland which say, eje ka le yooro lo ki a wa fi abo si a aduiye . It is disheartening to see people like Raji Babatunde Fashola,Kayodee Fayemi etc, hardworking and brilliant gentlemen ,saw what is going on and not voicing out against these elements despite the position they presently occupies in Nigeria saw how Yoruba people of Ondo state were wrongfully robbed even the truth was before the whole world and the call for rerun was initiated which was put to voting. As the truth is a priority in Yoruba society. And at the time of voting for and against rerun which was done to showe the atrocity committed by the evil forces in Yoruba land,there and then the progressive won evil forces declared the purported Akeredolu as the flag bearer so as to craft a division among Yoruba people but lo!, they didn't know Yoruba are sophisticated people and it shall be proven to the whole Nigeria once again. It is important to note that Irrespective of the anti Tinubu in APC, Ashiwaju has produce performers governors in office and better than the rest governors in the south west in the previous past and even the current . I thank God that despite the minister of finance being a Yoruba woman with her lovely accent and brilliancy, she isnt Tinubu's anointed one and we can see where we are presently with all the harsh economic reform decision that chased away investors from Nigeria in a jiffy and we have ourselves to blame . Let those yoruba dinning with the devil at the center ought to learn From Late sage CHIEF OBAFEMI AWOLOWO.YORUBA ROONU

Politics › Re: NIGERIAN GOVT: There Re No Indiginous Yorubas In Lagos, kwara And Kogi by Olu317(m): 9:55pm On Sep 25, 2016
I have been reading a lot on this thread and the person that created it didn't do his findings very well. Straight to the point, Kwara south are not like Yoruba but absolute YORUBA people. Namely; EKITI, IBOLO, IGBOMiNA are pure Yoruba group. These are set up Yoruba group that was forcefully merged with the north by the British because of divide and rule syndrome in which they used against the Yoruba people precisely and southern Nigeria.I specifically mentioned the Yoruba because they are the largest ethnic group in Nigeria and they were the ones who championed the motion to chase the British away from Nigeria and prior to that,it was very difficult for the British to bring them under their protectorate as the kiriji war of 1877/78-1893 opened the eyes of the British as it concerns a people with a well organised mornachy system. Having said these, the part that are mainly of Northern kwara are the ones that are non Yoruba. Ilorin is a Yoruba town but with few Fulani element, even the emir who the Yoruba reject has a lineage of Yoruba mother from the time of the great grand father abdulsalam who revolted against Afonja and behind his father to kill afonja with other jihadist especially the Yoruba of Ilesha who are the closest to emir according to ranking are all of Yoruba blood lineage except few Fulani and they can't come out to say it aloud like they do in the core Hausa state. Do you know Emir momoh was killed by Yoruba people of Ilorin when they revolted against him burnt his palace and killed him in 1895 because of tax introduced by the British. Another Emir abdulkadri was chased away 1936 and was later restored back by the British. These were many of the reason they divided Yoruba group into north and South so as not to be able to champion a common course. Ilorin emirate is a child's play once time arises. .

The writer of this thread is definitely not in turn with the truth. Go to Kwara and do your research,then you will find out if Yoruba owns it or not. Apart from Nape, few Fulani that cannot even be bold to call themselves one and hausas. Who else are indigene of Kwara if not Yorubas.. Stop wasting your time. Go and find out how many times in different national conference/confab set up by the government of Nigeria on where they wn
Ilorin wanted to be merged with,starting from the British colonisation of Southern and Northern protectorate of Nigeria. Even the last national confab organised by your own GEJ, that can't identify himself as an Ibo stock. Majority of kwarans and all okun people are Yoruba Race. Let BIAFRA put it house in order.

However, it will be a great delight to my soul and many others' if indeed many of you from N'digbo region know the true story before and during the civil began(1966/67-1970).

Ask yourselves these questions and make sure you are objective and if you find the answers to the aforementioned questions ; why did the first coup d'etat happened?,What's the N'digbo stock's percentage among the coup plotters?,why was it that non N'digbo politicians killed during the first coup d'etat?, why did the coup failed?, why did the most senior officer in the military not allowed to be head of state?, why was Aguiyi Ironsi made the head of state?,why didnt Aguiyi ironsi set up a panel to try the coup plotters?,why did the late sage,Obafemi Awolowo, the Yoruba leader not declare Odu'a Republic?,why did Major Banjo fought on behalf of BIAFRA?, why did he get a fair trial before he was presumed guilty and got killed by Ojukwu?,why did BIAFRA try to capture Lagos from the Far Eastern region through middle west Banjo had captured?, why did BIAFRA failed? ,Except you learn from the past, the future is bleak for BIAFRA, have you learned anything in my questions? ...I am 100% Yoruba blood and a proud one at that. I do not want to take on this thread as it stand on the abusive style of N'digbos on this platform but to enlighten the real intellectual N'digbos and not the so called "BIAFRIAN IDEALIST"are set to sit down and ponder over the questions I had asked.

you people of Edo have erred on so ma
ny utterances as it concerns Ododuwa. with your argument,you said, the Ododuwa probably told the Ancient IFE people that he was Edo/ogiso dynasty and that the Yoruba people out of pride hid it. If I may ask the children of the Edo kingdom, how many them as males/females will traveled to far distance land and after acquiring great wealth,affluence and power in that country will not want to come back and to conquer his detractors/enemies in his or her ancestral home? why would he (Odu'a) deny his ancestral home to his children? should the Yoruba raise up against them in the future How come he didn't tell the people to bury him after his death at his real ancestral home in Edo?How come the ancestral home of Yoruba doesn't have any strong influence of Ododuwa's Edo Language in their dialect on which all other Yoruba dialects developed from? instead the reverse was the case in Bini with Yoruba language having great influence in it. in fact many of the Binis are Of IFE(yoruba migrants) to Edo. Non of these was eminent in Yoruba history about Odu'a 's spoken language . In fact no Yoruba grouping even has ever lay any tangible claim to Edo as his or her historical ancestral home except via marriages and those that fused with Yoruba,history still have record of them pooh haa. Having said these,history has made us to know that Ododuwa was not imposed by anyone but chosen by IFA Oracle and not that he was a conqueror of a people,that meant that the man was part and parcel of the people..I am even more disappointed with you when you said Edo's history is shrouded in mystery because it is perceived as dating back to 5000 years. On Yoruba account, with great humility do I boast through God, why do you think it was easy to write the Yoruba Bible by one anointed by God, Samuel Ajayi crowded in 1844, do you think yorubas were Ordinary people? are the Yorubas the only the groups sold as slaves?“Capital No as answer ",but then because they know who they are, they never relent until they Excel. Do you think it was ordinary when Samuel Johnson wrote about the history of Yoruba in 1888/1895 when the publisher in the UK,having read throw it,was devastated threw it away or burn it and said it got lost?,it was because we Yoruba have history to back us up and you all hate the truth. Do you think it was easy to be the first to set up television station in Africa to be borne in Yorubaland in 1953?,History can not be distorted, no matter how, the truth will always prevail. learn more about Yoruba history, perhaps you will be enlightened more from the following book written in the past and more studying of Yoruba traditions by even WHITES THEMSELVES BECAUSE OF CURIOSITY ABOUT YORUBA nation. READ,:THE YORUBA SPEAKING PEOPLE BY ELLIS ALFRED BURTON 1894,REVISED VERSION OF HISTORY OF YORUBA BY SAMUEL JOHNSON 1921,ORIGIN OF YORUBA as THE LOST TRIBE OF ISREAL by Kierk Lange, The Black jews of Africa etc, I will advise you people of ogiso grouping need to do more emphasis on knowing where you come from before you can even be laying claim to another ra

Let me take it from beneath which is on the take of position of the ranking. The ranking is basically based on history and nothing to do with the present day Bini Kingdom. If it is true that the first Oba was crowned from ILE IFE by the grandfather of Owoka(Eweka),then you must accept that OOni is a senior to Oba of Bini. On the word called Oba(meaning that I have eaten/become the king) in Yoruba literally translation but deeper that what I wrote. If you need to know more, you will have to see and relate more with Yoruba traditionalist. Further more, the Ooni's throne represent the entirety of Yoruba Race wherever you are in the world and once you are pronounced as a king by the Ooni, you must not raise your sword on ILE IFE and any part of its territory. the first set of kings that picked their swords from IFE which Bini is included. The Alaafin is even the father of omo n'oba because oranmiya founded oyo empire. So you see if Yoruba claim that throne,we are in line, we( Yoruba)never invaded ogodomigodo but they came to plead with us in ILE IFE to beg Odu'a to come to their kingdom because brewing crisis. I will want you to do the analysis based on Alake's ranking even if the ranking wasn't true based on Yoruba pure and original ranking. Now,I have questions for you to ponder on,if Ekaladerhan(oduduwa)is the grandfather of oba of Bini, why do you say Bini King is senior?, in what languages did the chiefs from ogodomigodo communicate with oduduwa?, why didne he tell his son that he is from ogodomigodo?, if there was complexity in kingship in ogodomigodowhy did oranyan stay for some period as the ruler and to the extent of him marrying a princess in the same town for that long?do you know there is a crown of ododuwa in ILE IFE?,Honestly, it has nothing to do with superiority but historical facts as we heard it and stands. God bless yorubaland and ile ubinu(Bini)kingdom

Some of you who were probably wearing diapers when Tinubu was a pivotal member of NADECO lacked true credibility to even assert defeat to him simply because of ONDO state APC's election. Either his anointed candidate won or not. It has nothing to do with the respected icon whom you castigate.Have you thought about the location where Abraham came from and Akeredolu?, do your calculation very well if you know what I mean. It is obvious many of you are not Yoruba persons and I so much wonder what really concern you people with south west's politic and not mind your own Tribe's politics.Head or tail, Yoruba remain one entity and a person like Akeredolu will never at any point in time call Tinubu a bad brother irrespective of their differences and will never see him as enemy no matter what. Yoruba Race don't play do or die politics like some of your people in other part of your country called Nigeria . Tinubu represent the interest of Yoruba Race and so shall it stand even if he benefit for working to structure Yoruba politics the way you people had treated us in Nigeria. For the first time, we are at the centre of government,you see him as a betrayal to Goodluck jonathan whose issues will be narrated in another day . Some of you that lack what it takes to understand leadership role ought to go back to school and study. In Yoruba land leaders emerge naturally because he is appointed divinely,check our culture and history, nothing happens without a reason....This is the reason we are not like the rest of you people....Go to your village and study how position are worn and lost....lastly,God bless Tinubu, Akeredolu, all Yoruba chosen ones and Yoruba people in all geographical location in Nigeria.

The only thing I would want you to ask an average oworo indigene is the tribe he or she belongs,the answer will be thrown at you, and why did they kept requesting to be merged with western Yoruba state even if they are not given a new state?, go to the last national confab your former president set up and confirm their agitation. And For the benefit of others who want to know..

My question are these; why didnt Oduduwa return if he was a prince in Binin? why was the King's body part of the Oba of Bini(mostly the head) buried in IFE in ancient times?, why do Bini believe they came out from UHE(IFE)?,apart from UHE( IFE) that Bini also claim, where did they migrated from to the (UHE) IFE? why do Bini claim to migrate from UHE(IFE) if Oduduwa wasn't of Yoruba stock? correct the spelling of the the place of migration if it wasn't spelt perfectly..I am a Yoruba blood 100%...Let
me be informed

sometimes, I find some issues appalling because the reality is that the act of killing the “infidel"didn't start with the Muslims. In fact for clarity it started with the Israelites but in their days they don't just attack and kill in saying God“ is Great ”.However, looking at the trend today, you and I will realise people who are Terrorists or fighting Jihad do not even follow the saying of the founder of Islam but do things in their own way for evil purposes. Having said these,it will be hard to change the mindsets of a lot of people who had been brainwashed by the terrorists. whatever comes out from the vice president will never change anything in the mindsets of those that believes in conquering...After all the Arabs are children of Hagai, the estrange maid that bore Ishmael to Abraham the father of Isaac. So it is no news because God told Abraham the consequences of it all and that's what we face today. The reason Yoruba Muslims are largely different is because we had bonded from history and we don't believe in forcing someone to accept religion because it is a choice even other religions such as the Christian religion and traditional beliefs. That's the reason there has been God's peace in Yoruba's domain. The solution is with the leaders of Core Northern leaders of north west and North east breeds.... That's where it ends....

I truly believe in Yoruba common wealth but the so called leaders have gone the Nigeria's way i.e corruption and self centeredness. I so much wish they indeed understood the purpose of the great Legend in the person of late Chief Obafemi awolowo and his expectations. Perhaps we would have been far from the stagnant position we found ourselves today. God bless The YORUBA Race.
