There's also a a belief that the Queen of Sheba is the same Bilikisu Sungbo known to the Yorùbás ... There's a known monumental 160km wall built in the medieval times around where she is believed to have been buried and found in Ijebu-Ode...

Africans are very clueless about the pre-colonial history of the continent and the world. The European colonizers did a good job of hiding history.

Bakare is a Yoruba Muslim name
From the Arabic Bakr which means Young Camel or something like that

If there is a link, it’s more likely the present day Yoruba, together with one or more other ethnicities in present day Africa, are descended from this Pharaohs’ lineage! After all, we’re talking of more than 2,500 years ago and studies show civilisation started in that part of Africa. The indigenous populations of present West, Central and Southern Africa would probably have migrated from present day Egypt and Sudan.

If his name was Bakare, then Egyptologists could tell us what that meant in ancient Egypt of the time….and if the meaning is similar to what it means in Yoruba, then you’d have been able to establish some link between the two.

Can’t you just be Yoruba,which one be Egyptian again?

Which one is inferiority complex? The guy was thinking loud and imagining what probably was.. Now even if Yorubas were to have connections with Egypt, does it add or reduce anything from them?

Your post only shows you always develop high blood pressure. Hopefully, you get well soon.

The Yoruba sojourn in Egypt at least 4000 years ago. The history of Yoruba and her neighbors transcends West Africa.

The Ijebu were the earliest group of people to circumnavigate the globe, not necessarily through our concept of the globe today but as they understood it to be.

When we say Ijebu ode, ajagba-lura, we mean the Ijebu city, the people who connect the globe to itself. It was a defunct maritime culture, Ijebu means seafaring.

But that same ancient word resonates with the jebusites, isn't it? Logically, the Ijebu claimed to have existed before Oduduwa, meaning Oduduwa was much younger to Yoruba history compared to Ijebu.

Simply put, if the claim that Ijebu were a seafaring culture is tenable, it has to echo back in ancient history. Again, it has to be found in a source close to the sea and a secondary location equally close to the sea.

The globe is is a-gba: (the Yoruba source for agba~nla aye, or agbaye: earth, ultimately from agba~something round like a ball that moves around, such as igba), then they have actually circumnavigated Africa.

This perfectly explained the mystery of the origin of the name Ijebu. Yet that's not the only place name that shares cognates with the ancient Mediterranean city states. The Yoruba knew of Egypt,

@op, the Pharaoh could have been their kinsman. The group of black men telling you it's inferiority complex looking beyond the present have done a great research that ends in the "recent past" that means "antiquity" to them.

All their research could be that same statement. Do your own research, don't clamp down the right to curiosity and investigation of others based on your baseless biases.

so it then means yorubas adopted the name and not the other way round.
its simple.

When will you Black Africans stop this nonsense attachment.

Key thing is to find some similarity in meaning and a connection can be made with some degree of certainty! Who came first is less important, but as you said it’d probably mean the Yoruba have roots from Egypt or Sudan…formerly known as the land of the Kushites.
