Slizbeat2:
Not true.
When you hear Yagba, you'll know you are not entirely being truthful. The language is very distinct. The only thing is their association with the Yorubas. They might be classified as a part of the yoroboid group but being considered as Yoruba? Nah.
The Entire Okunland (Yagba West, Yagba East, Kabba-Bunnu, Ijumu) is very distinct
Every group have it's distinct dialect.

A Yoruba man from Ilesha, Ado-Ekiti or Offa doesn't need an interpreter to hear what a Yagba man is saying.

GDFO......am yagba and am proudly Yoruba............... You are just a hypocrite.
Most Yagba and Kabba people that i have seen have never claimed to be anything else.

I think the guy who the OP met ,if he truly met anyone is from Ogori-mangogo because some of them bear Yoruba names but claim not to be Yorubas.

HoR in Lagos state, governor hopeful in Kogi state. Desperados beget desperados.
As Nigerian democracy mature, expect to see more and more of things like that.


The wife of former Governor of Ankansas , Hillary Rodham Clinton was elected a senator in New York.


Jeb Bush was elected a Governor in Florida while his brother, George Bush was the Governor of Texas.

Aregbesola was a Commissioner in Lagos when he was elected as the Governor of Osun State.

So somebody is going to sit down and read 90 pages of projections.

But Tinubu urchins how far? The man no mention Tinubu o?

At least you should be happy that he didn't mention Tinubu and this mean he is a true prophet

This "primate" wants people to keep shaming him and other prophets.
This his prophecy would affect people's faith, and bring shame upon the genuine one's who does know about spirituality.
It is better if he's silent than pushing the game of guessing and probability out.

President na one person, but prophet dey list almost 20 names. So if one emerge, e go say e talk am.

Oo wrong nau!
At least he didn't mention the names the children of hatred love to hate. This mean he must be correct

They have their own minds but minds are easily manipulated. That Manipulation is reason why an Ikwerre man by surname, Okechukwu, can say he is not Igbo.
This has nothing to do with manipulation by the SW and North but everything to do with the human desires to be independent and examples of this abound all over Nigeria and the whole world but Igbos just chose to make it a big deal.

Manga people speak and understand Kanuri but they sometimes like to say that they aren't Kanuri. Isoko and Urhobo bear similar names and their languages are mutually intelligible.

Austria and Germany speak same language, bear same names and practice the same culture.

In Europe, you will see people bearing the same name or it's variants such as William/Williams/Wilhelm ,Henry/Henri, Alexander/Aleksander but belonging to different ethnic groups (countries).
Politics › Re: Christian Group Blasts Tinubu For Canvasing Muslim-muslim Ticket by oyatz(m): 12:32am On Dec 28, 2021
NaijirianKing:
Since PDP is choosing a Northerner and a SS/SE VP candidate, it would be better for APC to likewise field a Northerner in order to stand a chance of winning.

The reality is that a SW Muslim, with a Christian Northerner is not an ideal combination going by political realities presently on ground. It's a very tall order to expect Northerners to leave a Northerner to vote a southerner, especially one who will have a Northern christian, Northern christians have very little elective value when it comes to the core North.

Supporting an El Rufai presidential campaign would be a better bet, maybe pair him with a southern christian, and then that combination would have political leverage to defeat the PDP. If APC fields someone from the SW, that would implicitly mean that the SS and SE would essentially be in PDP's ambit as they have more to gain under a Northern President, than a southern president. The VP position comes to mind.

The SW should really look to throw their weight behind the North in order to be a part of the center.
Nigeria will triumph over tribal and religious bigotry.


Along the democratic journey, Northern-Southern, Muslim-Christian, Northern-Northern, Muslim-muslim, Southern-Southern and Christian-Christian Tickets will featured.

With time, tribe and religions of the candidates won't be issues.


And when did you start loving APC?

Crude oil in the Niger Delta is reason why SW and north divide the old Eastern region in other to separate Ikwerre and other non Igbo speaking areas in the SS from Igbos.
You probably assume that the Ikwerre and other non-Igbo speaking people in the SS don't have a mind of their own and have to carry out whatever SW and North tell them to do.

As far as I'm concerned APC/PDP may still keep ruling but i dont have anything good to say about any of their politicians. Everything they do is about their selfish interests. In this case, who do you mean by "he"?? You mean tinubu?? cheesy grin
There are many parties in the country, so there are opportunities to chose from several other alternatives.


I never mentioned any candidate, so you should name your candidate whom you believe can solve the problems and start campaigning for him because someone must become the president and this person is already existing.

I have a friend Abudullahi by name, who hails from Yagba, Kogi state. The day I called him a Yoruba man he became furious and nearly dropped me with a Drew-McIntyre-liked Claymore kick and after that day I came to the realization that most Kogites hates to be associated with Yoruba people.
This is not true.


If you want object answers ,go to the official Facebook page of Yagba, Kabba or the Okun people.

They will tell you who they wish to be identified as.

Big lie

Kogites will proudly claim Yoruba. Unlike ibos. A delta man from Aniona will tell u plainly he is delta and not Ibo.

I think for them it boils down to the way the real ibos have succeeded in tarnishing their image both locally and internationally. When it comes to fake drugs,drug trafficking,fake products,cheating,wickedness the Ibo man dey for front.

Be good and pple will want to identify with you.

I am not saying there are no bad eggs in Yoruba land or among d yorubas
It's not about the Igbos but a generalized mentality to be 'independent' in Nigeria but it's over bloated with the Igbo because they always go to the media (especially social media) to complain against or even start insulting these outliers for not being proud of or rejecting their assumed Igbo ethnic tags. The latter phenomena became very obvious following the emergence of IPOB.

Honestly what the OP said it's true though I haven't given any thought to it but I've seen many people claiming kogi state but they speak Yoruba and it have made me think that maybe kogi is a distinct tribe on its own but I personally know two people who claims they are not Yoruba but kogi, I live in Ogun State Atan to be precise and deals in plumbing materials and most of my customers are yorubas, so don't doubt me.
Kogi is a multi-ethnic State with the following three major ethnic groups;

*Igala (Mainly in Kogi East)

* Ebira (Mainly in Kogi central)

*Yoruba (Mainly in Kogi West).



There are however overlap of these ethnic groups in different towns/villages e.g Koton-Karfe = Ebira + Igala.

Ogori-mangogo= Yoruba + Ebira + Ancient proto-yoruba group.

Arda1000:
Am not from Kogi but Kogi is just a state so which means it's an artificial creation,if your ethnicity is Yoruba and you are from Kogi state it doesn't make you any difference from a Yoruba from Lagos yeah they might be a dialect difference,the same applies to Igbo and other ethnic groups in Nigeria.

An Hausa man from Nigeria sees an Hausa man from Niger more as a brother than a Yoruba or Igbo man
Even there are many prominent Yoruba men known widely in Nigeria that are not really from the S/West but from Kwara or Kogi e.g


Kogi: Pastor Sam Adeyemi
Late Prof Pius Adesanmi
Deji Adeyanju
Late Sen SB Awoniyi
Sen Dino Melaye
Hon James Abiodun Faleke
Smar Adeyemi
Debbie Rise

Kwara: Lai Mohammed
Bishop David Oyedepo
Joseph Ayo Babalola
Senator SS Ajibola
Pasuma (Wasiu Alabi Odetola)
Kollingthon Ayinla (Kolawole Ilori)
Senator Ibrahim Oloriegbe who defeated the Ex-senate President, Bukola Saraki.
Tony Tetula (Tony olanrewaju)
