You mean they are trying to differentiate Yoruba from those drug trafficking tribe?

On a serious note, I think the Yoruba tribe are starting to have more influence on the global scale. Most Western countries are now kinda positioning Yoruba as the anchor for the black race.
Early this year, one bulky kenya immigration officer detains me and my friend as we want to enter Nairobi.
He asked me and my friend which tribe are we as we said Yoruba.
He told us Yoruba are good people and Igbos are bad people.
I was so proud eh

Below is a survey done by the European Union (EU) home office and while gathering the Black/African race survey question, Yoruba is being spelled out.

What could be the reason for this? Could it be due to the number of Yorubas in EU countries or Yoruba people are so famous to act as the anchor for the Black race?

This is great. Yorubas are being respected all over the world. That is why being of good behaviour is a good thing unlike the drug pushing nzougbu nzougbu tribe disgracing Nigeria upandan.

Even though you spoke the truth, just know that it will not stop the drug pushing nzougbu nzougbu tribe from coming after your head.

God bless the north

Everything in the bracket is explaining the category of people from Caribbean being referred to. Yoruba slaves are the dominant slave population in the Caribbean. Read it this way:
1) African,
2) blacks,
3) Afro-american or
4) Caribbean blacks (including Yoruba)
The fact that a Yoruba man in the Caribbean is mixed race or light skinned because of inter-racial marriage doesn't make them white. So the emphasis on Yoruba could mean Yoruba Caribbeans are fond of trying to gum body with the white to boost their self esteem. But the whites are stylishly telling them that "we no be mate". Hence, the emphasis on Yoruba pointed out explicitly as black just to put the Yoruba back to where they belong

I know this doesn't please your narrative. Because you intentionally screenshot this because of a mental disorder called superiority complex. And you were expecting me to validate your thought process so your body can release some hormones of excitement
That screenshot really pained IPOB cannibals no be small.

I am a Northerner and I am not angry Yorubas are being recognised outside Nigeria. On the contrary, I am proud of them. It amazes me that SE people are so full of hate and envy that they are condemning and attacking any positive news to the Yorubas.

I guess it because Yoruba`s are the most enlightened, educated and law abiding tribe in Africa.
That’s what I was saying in another thread and the Edo boys came for my head like skull miners. Yorubas are the famous Africans in the whole of Europe in professions, education and other legitimate endeavours. Other tribes are either peddling drugs, doing prostitution and other crimes. That’s the truth, however bitter it may be. And this is just a generalisation.

Going through the comments, you will realise why AFRICA is designed to stay stagnant. Africans/ Black People have so much bad blood for each other.
Every generation is worse than their predecessors.

Black people are designed to stay Stranded.

Do not turn this into a tribal war. It isn't about superiority. It is simply that Yoruba is more than a geographical expression. Many Yoruba in Cuba, Brazil, US, etc pay homage to the Ooni of Ife and the Yoruba traditions. Yorubaness is clearly more than being born in the SW region.

But it invokes on every Yoruba person, the responsibility to maintain the eight pillars of "Omoluabi",

1. Oro Siso (Spoken word, the Yoruba accord great respect for intelligent and expert use of language)
2. Iteriba (Respect)
3. Inu Rere (Goodwill, Having a good mind towards others)
4. Otito (Truth)
5. Iwa (Character)
6. Igboya (Bravery) personified by an "Akinkanju"
7. Ise (Hardwork)
8. Opolo Pipe (Intelligence)

Abusing or denigrating others contravenes pillar number 3

Do not be sucked into culture wars - beauty attracts, anger repels. There are many other beautiful tribe-nations in Africa. Let's instead focus on building and transferring these beautiful traditions to our children.

The Yoruba, Bigger than Africa. Clearly, the Yorubas are an advanced civilization.

Leo Frobenius, a world renowned archaeologist carried out archaeological excavations at the ancient Yoruba city of Ife in Nigeria and published his findings in twelve volumes between 1921 and 1928. Frobenius theorised that the intricate bronze and terracotta sculptures he discovered at Ife were relics from the mythological city of Atlantis.
For you to really understand Yoruba, their Ancestors, history and development, you need to be open minded. There are 3 major Origins:
Urahurẹ (Ara wẹwẹ/kekere, they're the most ancient, they made those marks on the rocks in Ifedore LGA in Ekitiland and Ondo state. Also those archeological findings in Iwo Ẹlẹru, same area)

Ulesun ( related in origin to Kemet, and to some extent, Nok, etc. Some call them Atlantis.) They established Ife and they are the source of Yoruba religion, culture, art and sculptures. They're great people: the Obatala, the Ogun, the Orunmila, etc. Many traditionalists promote only these people as the source of Yoruba, they frown at every other fact, findings and history. They refuse to carry out researches and even look into the Ekiti Obas crisis decades ago, where Oore claimed to be number one but other Obas like Ewi said he's not Omo Ọwá but he was adopted by their grandfather, Iwa (Ọwá Oduduwa) on his coming from the East.

The migrants (Ọwá Oduduwa, his children and his people; few Phoenicians and Crete, Cushites, etc). It took them sometime to even intermarry with the locals. They were able to take over the ruling of every community. These people came with many innovations. The 8 day naming ceremony, circumcisions, twins seniority, etc. Phoenicians, who already got converted into Christianity, came through the sea in-between the period of the Semitic immigrations. The story of Moremi, her sacrificed son Ẹla on Ọjọ Ẹti, etc. they changed the naming of the days by the Ulesuns, reason you now have Ọjọ Isegun, Eti, Abameta, Aiku, etc.

The Uniqueness and greatness of the people refer to as Yoruba now is so deep. If only the people have revelations of who they are, they would never look back but pursue only greatness. Merging Yoruba with others in a country is the greatest evil Berlin conference and white race did to the people.

Yoruba are the anchor of black race and the standards others are measured by.

Yoruba culture is what is called Nigerian's. Most of what is African general culture today was pioneered by Yoruba.

If only the modern Yoruba know who they are.

Exactly, the caribbean contain, three stocks, whites, natives and black slaves, of which the later is made of mostly Yoruba slaves, largely sold into slavery by influential slave trading families like the tinubu's of Lagos till early 20th century, due to their large numbers, the probability of some lucky ones among them having children with the whites is high, culminating in a large no of coloured people,
Owing to the fact that being white comes with a lot privileges in these countries, this Yoruba coloured products tend to claim white to access those privileges, but the white Europeans decided to highlight the differences to put them in their place.
The reason is because those of them with Yoruba DNA in their blood tends forge documents and are also involved in identity theft to hide their real identify, also they are more criminally inclined.

You are jealous, I think you should be used to Yoruba uniqueness by now, it's like a smoke, you can't surpress it forever.

There's time for addressing everything, there's time to discuss politics and time to talk about who we are.

It's a big deal for you to see the name 'Yoruba' you hate so much make waves on the world stage. Yoruba should be made the Nigerian national language if not for tribalism, anyways the regional language should be made official and some.already use theirs.
Jealous? No! I’m trying to tell you guys it’s utterly ridiculous arguing over unimportant issues.

Kai, so this one too has become an achievement? Inferiority complex is your problem.

They mentioned Yoruba as an example of African ethnicities they're referring to. Do you expect them to start listing all African ethnicities?

They also mentioned Mongolian, Sri Lankan and others. Does it now mean these ones too are great?

When you don't have tangible things to celebrate, you're left making mountain out of molehills.

What a shame, spit!

Tinubu is Yoruba. Hushpupy, the most notorious fraudstar in the history of Dubai is also Yoruba. Many of those in Saudi prisons and those hanged for pushing drugs are Yorubas too. Many others too including serving politicians and traditional rulers from your region also have badly tainted record.

Anyways, you're free to continue being delusional.
