Dino Melaye is damaged goods that was imposed on Kogi state PDP by National to reward him for supporting Atiku during the presidential primaries. Even those PDP people at state level worked against him because they hated the unprincipled rascal.

Infiriority complex and low self esteem has destroyed your brain and you are a huge disgrace to proud Okun people. It is unfortunate that you think so lowly of yourself that you believe you are worthless untill you begin to claim what you can never be. It is only a bastard child that uses his left hand to describe his father's house. Only a low self esteem and bastard child that claims the family that he doesn't belong to.

The good thing is that people with infiriority complex and low self esteem like you are very very few because the Okun people that I know are very proud of their heritage.

The Yorubas that you desperately want to claim have always rejected that Okuns are Yorubas. Many even treat treat Okuns with disdain all thanks to low esteem and infiriority complex people like you. That you shamelessly claim a tribe doesn't mean you will ever be accepted. On the contrary, you will continue to suffer all manner of humiliation and disdain from the Yorubas for the rest of your life. Yorubas know themselves and will never ever accept Okun as one of them and that is the fact that low self esteem people like you will continually fail to understand because you are ready to be receiving insults from Yorubas.

I cannot count how many times I have seen Yorubas telling Okun people to their faces that they are not Yorubas. Those who don't tell you that you are not Yorubas are only being civilised by not wanting to humiliate you but I guarantee you that they will ridicule you and laugh at you behind your back but a low esteem and shameless person like you is content to be taking such insults just because you have infiriority complex. Only Omo ale jati jati will claim the tribe which treats him with sldisdain Only Omo atoun rin wa will deny his father's homestead. only and eru to be used as sacrifice will be shameless enough to claim another tribe. Only Omo iran kiran will be content to be receiving insult from the originals owners of a tribe. Only the child born into ancestral products of SLAVES will want to claim he is Yoruba while he is not. Don't think we don't know the history of SLAVES in Okunland. Kaba is a town where SLAVES were being bought and sold by royalty and freeborn Okuns in the olden times and even though slavery have been abolished, the slave offsprings are the ones claiming Yorubas so as to escape the slave contamination in their bloodline because no true royalty or even free born Okun person will deny his ancestral lineage. Go home and ask you father your true lineage and you will find the reason for your low self esteem and inferiority complex.

Is it not even laughable that you are using geographical regions and the word Oba to mean you are Yoruba. Don't other tribes also use Oba in Nigeria. Benin people use Oba also but are clearly not Yoruba and you would make the mistake of your life when you go to Benin and tell them they are Yorubas. Using geographic is the DUMBEST excuse ever because Okun are northerners except for some sprinkling of their population in Ekiti. Going by you low esteem analogy, we can call them Hausas since Okun are geographically northerners. You even went as far as calling Okuns an extension of Yorubas. How much insult do you want to heap on yourself all because you desperately want to attach yourself to Yorubas. Claiming that Okuns are close to Ekiti is extremely ignorant, DUMB&ST00PEED because not everyone in Ondo and Ekiti are Yoruba even though they speak Yoruba as second language and some generally have Yoruba names. Asking "where are the Okuns from if not youruba" is a special kind ST00PEEDITY reserved for people with infiriority complex because why not ask where are other tribes from. Other tribes like Fulani, Ijaw, Tiv, Ibibio etc

Nigeria is a large country with many tribes and you find those tribes being proud of their ethnic background and I know for a fact that Okuns are a brave and proud tribe that doesn't need to be in the shadow of any tribe to stand up tall. People like you who suffers from Low esteem and infiriority complex certainly don't represent the proud Okun people.

My final advice you are:-
1. Okun are not Yorubas and will never be
2. Okuns are very proud of their heritage
3. Try and seek medical help for your low self esteem and inferiority complex

Only the child born into ancestral products of SLAVES will want to claim he is Yoruba while he is not. Don't think we don't know the history of SLAVES in Okunland. Kabba is a town where SLAVES were being bought and sold by royalty and freeborn Okuns in the olden times and even though slavery have been abolished, the slave offsprings are the ones claiming Yorubas so as to escape the slave contamination in their bloodline because no true royalty or even free born Okun person will deny his ancestral lineage. Go home and ask you father your true lineage and you will find the reason for your low self esteem and inferiority complex.

In your useless bud to make everyone Yoruba you had to denigrate the Igalas by calling them antelopes. How would you feel if some other tribe called your own tribe by derogatory names.

Have you asked Igala people what the meaning of the word is? Their ancestors are hunters who hunt for game; they migrate to the land called Igalaland several centuries ago. The place known as Igala today served as abode for a lot of antelope then.

The people of your kind are always emotional about everything and will not allow room for knowledge. Do your findings as to the meaning of the word "Igala" and then come here to tell the world about the lie I told.

I will no longer reply to you henceforth; since you write like an ignorant person who hates knowledge.

I call their language Yoruboid which indicates that we have same ancestors. analysis of their spoken language in many fronts is much more Yoruba than any other language.

If you see me physically, you will not call anything about me "useless", but I understand your type and kind lack foresight and cannot see anything beyond the internet and the flatscreen you're typing from. I know you're a kid, naive and inexperienced (and mostly mentally).

What do you expect from a product of a PIIG. It is not surprising that they offspring of generational PIIG SLAVES lack brain function which is why DIS product of ashewo mother and a thousand fathers is incapable of logic.

After asking the rabid dog to show how late general Tunde Idiagbon remains Fulani even though he bears Yoruba names, the rabid dog, Omo ale jati jati, Omo ati oun rinwa is foaming at the mouth due to his epilepsi. Only a bastard, worthless dog will claim what he is not. The Omo aja dudu, Omo eran, Omo eru, oloriburuku, Omo lasan lasan, with a cursed SLAVE leaneage failed to prove his case.

How come Tunde Idiagbon and Bukola Saraki are still Fulani men even though they bear Yoruba names. There are loads of Fulani, Nupe, Igalas, Ebiras who bears Yoruba names and are proud of their ancestry but DIS PIG is too DAFT and suffers from deep low self esteem to know that bearing a name does not equate you to coming from that tribe. Even Rotimi Ameachi bears both Yoruba and Igbo names but he is neither Yoruba nor Igbo. The generational, worthless SLAVE offspring with a stiking dirty SLAVE bloodline doesn't know that.

It turns out that the Omo aja dudu oloriburuku, Omo ale jati jati, Omo eran, ati oun rinwa, Omo eru, Omo idi amori is also an extreme olodo coupled with his low sel esteem, bastard blood line is too DAFT to realise that Google search is not a proof of anything. He is such a brain dead to know that Google has an algorithm that pops up items based on searches and not proof of anything

The cursed bastard PIIG Omo ashewo of a thousand fathers wasted his numerous father's school fees and not only is his life a curse and worthless, he is also doomed to be a parmennent failure. They asked him to produce proof of his assertion he is barking like a rabid cursed dog and foaming at the mouth like a demented bastard Omo ale jati jati that he is. Oloriburuku Omo eran, Omo irankiran oti oun rinwa, idi amori, eru, son of ashewo mother and a thousand fathers, Omo to aja jeku, worthless PIIG

If you don't know History ask those who do

The British fought the Yoruba Ruler of ilorin called Balogun Inakoju alanamu in 1900 to take Over Ilorin

The Emir had already been defeated and deposed by him and his followers

Balogun alanamu was the Yoruba Ruler of ilorin

The rest is Tribal Politics

There are some Historians who even claim the real reason the British reinstated the Emir in Ilorin was because he was the one that gave Lord Lugard the information that was used to Track down and kill the fleeing Sultan of Sokoto Caliphate Attahiru and his Jihadist Army at Gombe
So the British reinstated hin as Emir of Ilorin as a reward

Many Fulani even see the Emir of Ilorin as a Traitor who sold out the Sultan of Sokoto Attahiru and his Sokoto Caliphate to the British

The Yorubas also deposed the Emir of Ilorin in 1934 he fled to Kaduna and was again reinstated by the British after 2 years

My friend u r mentally derailed so I won't argue with u but rather enlighten u and I don't even want to know where u r from, u just stepped out of line by trying to give me another identity, over the years b4 u were miserably brought to dis life we have been yoruba's just like the
Ijebus
Egbas
Ijeshas
Aworis etc, irrespective of the geographical manipulations kwara state and kogi state house the yoruba ppl in middle belt with great history, u can tell yourself anywhere u r from but not me no be by force coz we Egbe in okun r complete yoruba and we have history, yoruba is yoruba and theres nothing like yoruba speaking in d case of okun, like u said ability to speak a language like an igbo person or hausa will understand yoruba does not make them 1 but with dialect, our traditional rulers are called oba like in every yoruba lands,our names, traditions, food, gods dey serve, history etc, there r even okuns in ekiti that's to tell u having some okuns in kogi is geographical manipulations, we r not 1 of those tribes u mention that stand alone, from here to Benin republic to other countries that as well house yoruba tribes, if u google yoruba race it will show u different countries the yoruba's are domiciled, not to talk of okun, from my town to osun state is less than 30mins that's to tell u we r just an extension.
I can prove it to u that u r mentally derailed and u can as well discover that yourself by asking yourself where then are okun from if they r not yoruba?


With dis I will leave u to ur gutter believe to continue feeding them to only u and ur family.......ashiere na u wan tell me my tribe, what audacity, una go just come online like say una get sense saying something u can't defend, if person dey deceive u sef is ur brain dead to think properly
So I bear yoruba name for nothing, my towns and villages r in historical yoruba names, we r ruled by oba, my dialect is yoruba infused......oloriburuku ni bobo yi sha, don't just reply without reasonable evidence..

I have been expecting you to shift the goal post and drag the issue of kwara state into the conversation since you failed woefully in your attempted attempt to malign the yorubas race with the result of the just concluded Kogi state governorship election.

I wonder why it took you so long

You have been searching for the suitable comment to inject kwara into the conversation lol

You guys are very predictable!

Kwara state is not a SW state. Even though parts of the state belong to yorubas just like Kogi state.

I don't know what you people mean by saying yorubas should chase Fulanis away and take over the whole of kwara state.
Why didn't you guys chase away those non Igbos in delta state since we have some Igbos speaking deltas?

Tell you and your goons to stop bringing up this stale narratives about yorubas not taking over kwara state from Fulanis.
Your arguments regarding the illorin issue doesn't hold water. Kwara is more peaceful than any state in the SE at the moment.
Kwara state has 16 local government areas, 13 out of the 16 have yorubas as the LG chairmen. Yoruba is the major language in illorin today, even in the Emir palace.

Have you even ever bn to the emir's palace before?

Something funny is happening in Kogi state. This state has three major ethnic groups i.e. Ebiras, Igalas and Okuns (Yorubas). But sadly, since the creation of the state, only the Igalas and Ebiras have been ruling back to back. No Okun/Yoruba has ever ruled Kogi state since its creation.

In Delta State, there are three major ethnic groups i.e. Urhobos, Anioma/Igbos and Itshekiri. All of them have ruled accordingly. In Rivers State, both the Igboid upland areas and the Ijoid riverine areas have ruled.

So, why is Kogi state different? Even Dino Melaye, an Okun man who contested under PDP was disgraced. A major opposition party like PDP performed so woefully that ordinary SDP candidate almost won against APC.

SDP candidate was Igala.
APC candidate was Ebira.
PDP candidate was Okun/Yoruba.

Yet the contest was between SDP Igala and APC Ebira. Why are the Okuns maltreated in Kogi state?

stuffs2002:
The Okuns are the only people you will find a significant population of Christians in Kogi. Kogi West is larger than Okunland because even the state capital is under Kogi West but it is populated by indigenius Muslims.

The entire Kogi central is just a sprinkling of Christians and same can be said of Kogi East.
