You guys always wanna hold something

You're saying thrash! I think you should check the meaning of "commercial quantity". The oil in Lagos,Ogun,Anambra,Enugu and Benue are not in commercial quantity, stop deceiving yourself

Thank God you know it's nonsense. Check Wikipedia for the top 9 oil producing states in Nigeria and you'd not see Lagos. Moreover, when you're analysing Igbo and Yoruba crude oil productions,don't limit it to SE or SW. Yoruba communities can be found in Edo, Itshekiri in Delta. Igbo communities can also be found in Upland Rivers State and Anioma in Delta State, and these are all Niger Delta States,put all these into consideration.

Aniocha North is occupied majorly by Olukumi followed by Enuani.
You are a big clown!
Olukunmi is just a group of 8 Igbo speaking villages with Yoruba ancestry, they are not even the dominant people in their ward talkess of a large local government like Aniocha North.

Far from home, Yoruba community makes home in Delta State
National Mirror, November 2011 — Not many people know that there is an authentic Yoruba community in Delta State. Well, there is. The Oloku Mi people who migrated from Owo/Akure area of the present day Ondo State have lived in a community known as Ugbodu in Aniocha Local Government Area of Delta State since circa 11th Century AD. AMOUR UDEMUDE visited the community and found a people eager to retain as many aspects of their origin as possible......



“We are a Yoruba speaking community and the name of our language is Oloku mi,” she disclosed. Finally the king, H.R.M. Ayo Isinyemeze, the Oloza (Obi) of Ugbodu, met the desire of the writer. The youthful looking, handsome royal father explained. According to the monarch who is also the chairman of the Traditional Rulers Council in Aniocha North, [/b]the Ugbodu Oluku mi speaking people migrated from Owo/Akure axis in the current day Ondo State between 9th and 11th Century AD to settle down in Benin during the reign of King Ogiso of Benin. They, however, had to leave Benin for their current abode after a particular incident which rendered them unsafe.[b] “The language, Oluku mi is a dialect of the Yoruba. Interestingly, we are not the only speakers of the language.

The blog alone shows the article is fake! Olukunmis don't speak Yoruba, they speak an Unadulterated Northern Igbo dialect similar to that of Anambra and Enugu, however they know they migrated from Yoruba land.

Olukumi speaks Igbo as second language but still retains their Yoruba language.
This is the most hillarous comment I've seen in years. For this comment, I'm 100% sure you've never been to Delta State talkess of Anioma. The Olukunmis may have Yoruba ancestry but they have lost the language, popular names Olukunmis answer are Nduka,Chika,Kachikwu,e.t.c, these are obviously Igbo names. However, they are trying to teach their people Yoruba so they can identify with their lost ancestry.
Olukunmis speak Igbo as their main language,you can't expect a small community that migrated from Yoruba land and surrounded by thousands of Igbo villages to retain their language and culture. The only trace of Yoruba culture the Olukunmis have is the oral tradition that says they are from Owo in Ondo State, they don't even call themselves Olukunmis, they call themselves "Odinani",an Igbo word too.
If you doubt me, conduct a trip to Aniocha.
