His mother is from Edo but she is yoruba. There are yorubas in edo state, iyabo ojo, Olumide apata, dele muomodu etc are all yoruba from edo state. Burna boy is more yoruba than any tribe, i doubt he speaks other Nigerian language aside yoruba 38 Likes 6 Shares |

NoSmoking: That they speak Yoruba doesn't make them Yoruba by tribe. Many tribe in south south speak Igbo doesn't make us Igbo. I'm from Rivers state and we speak Igbo It's language of trade. Nothing concern Edo with Yoruba Burna boy promotes Yoruba music due to the influence of Fela and his mom. Also you're wrong Where his dad is from is where he is from... His dad is a Rivers man. Very from from Yoruba 1 Like 1 Share |

abdeefggh: So any one who speaks Yoruba now is Yoruba? But you Yorubas will fight tooth and nail to claim those who speak and carry Igbo names in Delta and Rivers aren't Igbos. All this double standards just to steal an artist 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I bet if Burna boy was useless and a criminal you people will reject him and even Tag him a Fulani man 4 Likes 1 Share |

abdeefggh:please stop taking weed. There is no Yoruba tribe in my Edo state but some part of the state like my local government speaks Yoruba as a distant third language especially by old people as this current generation can hardly speak a word. All the names you mentioned have nothing to do with Yoruba but their names. It's just like saying anyone that's bears English name is from England 3 Likes 1 Share |

Igbo boy you should be more concerned about your own cursed tribe and leave burna that proudly relates with yoruba and the language. Asake alone is greater than all igbo celebrities in this world combined 17 Likes 5 Shares |

BlackhatMentor:not all everyone who speaks Yoruba or bear Yoruba name is Yoruba alot of Eguns, ebiras bear pure Yoruba Names and speak Yoruba that doesn't make them Yoruba, in the case of Yorubas in Edo and Kogi states, there are full blown Yoruba towns in those areas, that the Ọba of Benin had sovereignty from Benin to Lagos does not mean every one in his domain were Edo no that's wrong, Alafin at a point had his sovereignity extented to Abomey today in Benin Republic with Eguns in it that doesn't make them Yorubas, Point is there are Yorubas in Edo states so also there are Yoruba speaking but not Yoruba people in Edo state too.. Where Burna Mother hails from I have no Idea.. But the guy sings in English and Yoruba.. That's undisputable and his Father is from Rivers.. Period. 6 Likes |

NoSmoking:please stop this nonsense already. I'm from Akoko Edo and we are not Yoruba except that we share boundary. We have our distinct language and it's nothing close to Yoruba. The Yoruba names came about because of the influence of Yoruba Christian missionaries who freely share and spread Christianity in that era and our shared proximity 1 Like 1 Share |

abdeefggh: That's a lie. They're all from Edo... speaking Yoruba as a language of trade.... in next 20 years many non Yorubas in Lagos will speak Yoruba... doesn't make them Yoruba. Even in Edo many sub tribes like the Igbankes speak Igbo and have Eze's ... you guys will claim that doesn't make them Igbo. 1 Like 1 Share |

masseratti: Most Nigerian artists irrespective of tribe sing with Yoruba as its first language of choice in Nigeria music other than English. That doesn't make them Yoruba |
