Ileke-IdI:
Binis are not the only ones being influence. This is due to the large intertribal marriages between the Yorubas and people of Edo state.
Just like you have Cross River tribes influencing the Igbos cultural heritage, due to large intertribal marriages.

Something is wrong here, you gotta Flip that around. Bini influenced Yoruba and Igbo influenced Cross-River, etc.

^^^^^

Ileke-IdI:
It's something to celebrate, not sth to hate. lol. If the Edos (who are closer to Yoruba) can do it, anybody can.

Edo is not a group. Bini is closer to Yoruba, the rest aren't.

Ileke-IdI:
The one you're clearly and obviously displaying on this thread.
Chillazz, the influence is only going to spread more. First it was the attire, then they're not completing it with our traditional hat.

It's something to celebrate, not sth to hate. lol. If the Edos (who are closer to Yoruba) can do it, anybody can.

We welcome muti-culture but credit the right person.  SUDANO-SAHELIAN,  not Yoruba.

Ileke-IdI:
That's all you got to say?
So disappointed. Drink more hatorade so that I can post more pixs of Yoruba influence on Igbos to cause you more pain.

Sadly, I was thinking you'd be overjoy, to see cultural mixture. But anything Yoruba scares you, huh?

I know you want to turn this into an igbo vs. yoruba bigotry topic so i won't give you that satisfactions and I hope umu ndi-igbo will follow suit when they see this.

Which pain?  you be doctor? Abeg commot face for here,   I see no cultural mixture, all I see is a Yoruba woman trying to steal another man creation and claim as their own with laughable swag. 

Post a cultural mixture and i'll be overjoyed.

Aren't you suppose to have logged off?

Ileke-IdI:
That is alright. You dont need to The Yoruba influence is strong with this one.

Abeg, one more swag before I head off, will be back tomorrow

Ileke-IdI:

I see the influence well well now.  

Ileke-IdI:
From his head to his feet, Yoruba swagga!
Even Hausa/arabs cannot boast of it.  

If you say na .  

Don't Arab man see this claim claim you people are forming chest with

Ileke-IdI:
No mocking, as you say. Just enjoy the thread.  

No need to start hating Yoruba just because of simple cultural mixture

I do not see any culture mixture which defeats the purpose of the thread.  The only thing so far that supports the thread is the last picture with the man's hat and the woman's gele.  Gele being a yoruba creation is even debatable but we'll give it to yoruba since they are trying to take another man creation and claim na their own.

Ileke-IdI:
Another Igbo/Igbo wedding

I give you on the hat, everything else is not Yoruba influenced

Ileke-IdI:
Last time I checked my Bible. God was the creator of the earth and the sun. Only a foolish man would praise another man for God's creation.

Hey yoruba love to toast themselves.  No be praising, na mocking.  You took the Agbada creation from Arabs and claim na you make am, might as well take the land and sun from God too.

Ileke-IdI:
Obviously yes. A traditional attire.

Can you say the red hat is a Yoruba attire?

PS: Try not to get sentimental over this, just a lil cultural history for the big boys.

Since when?    Yoruba are now Arabs I guess ROFLMAO

Since when did those attire become a Yoruba exclusively dress style?  Did Yoruba invent it?  The hat, the beads, the wrapper, lace are all Yoruba? Okay ooh. Yoruba invented the sun shining on them, the sand they are standing on, and even the bird used to make the hats.

Ileke, did you smoke too much Igbo today?  Is that why you are so obsessed with Igbo or do you just envy Igbo too much?  Which one na?

It should be left up to the Child.  A mixed child can claim one of her parents lineage or both her parents lineage.

kandiikane:
Is the ijaws the same as the cross river state people? My aunt married last year(she is from cross river state) and her husband is Igbo but she wore what I am seeing here, the attire, including the hat in the second to last photo, beaded walking stick and heavy bead necklaces.

Cross River consist of Ibibio, Efik, Annang, Igbo, etc with Efik being the majority.  Traditional attires tend to be interchangeable among SE and SS region.  I saw hats I assumed was just an Igbo man dress style because its the type of hat worn exclusively among my community but I just learned otherwise.

Beads on the other hand is very common among Nigerian southern groups but the heavy neck beads is exclusive to River groups.  I'm not sure if the heavy bead is just an Ijaw dress style or an all rivers group dress style due to the fact I know a Rivers Igbo woman married to an Edo man and she was dressed in similar attire during her traditional wedding and another river igbo woman dressed the same way during her traditional wedding which Ijaw girl posted here.

@ Tpia
I see an Igbo woman picture posted up there as Ijo so maybe the one you think are Yoruba might actually be Yoruba dressed as Ijo.

@OP

Heya. I pray for the family ohh. There is more to this story, let's wait and see.
