I use to have a Benin friend called Ewe re.

FreeStuffsNG:

He is actually right.

The Omoonile of Accra, as in the true owners of the land which hosts Ghana's capital city today, are ethnically Yoruba and they used to bear Yoruba names. In the past, even Stoneboy would have had a clear Yoruba name that clearly identify him as Yoruba.

He, just like Emmanuel Adebayor, Angelique Kidjo, the Bini royalty etc, at some point weakened their Yoruba link but many of them , even those outside Africa, are now retracing their steps and roots when they found out how phenomenally great their Yoruba history and root is.

Wolexyoshi:
Ghanaian historians believed their roots is from the western part of Nigeria, Oyo and Osun mostly and that why those two states dominate The Yorubas in Ghana.

Welcome in Ghana language is Akwaaba.
Welcome in Yoruba language is E kabo.

YORUBA TO THE WORLD!

All.these people. from.Potopoto region will. rush this thread with their hateful comments....

They always think that Yoruba culture and people are theirs are at par...meanwhile... after their miniature poto poto region in the landlocked cursed region of Nigeria....they don't have any heritage. any other country.....

After the Fulani tribe...The Yoruba tribe is the largest in the entire Africa......Gbam!!!!

Yoruba are larger than Fulani

The Ewe of Ghana Togo and Benin Republic migrated from Oyo
They are Brothers to the Badagry Eguns
They speak the same language but different dialects
The Ga of Accra migrated directly from Ile Ife and took their Traditional Stool and Crown with them

Jerry Rawlings was from the Ewe Tribe

The Ga are descendants of the Oninana Son of Oduduwa

The Ewe migrated from Oyo but were also under Alaketu of Ketu

No.

If the Yoruba in Nigeria has not excelled, this celebrated homecomings will not have been possible. The Oba of Benin who is Yoruba and a descendant of Oranmiyan, a Yoruba prince, few weeks ago, came to Yorubaland to receive tutorials on Yoruba history because, according to him, he wanted to learn at first hand, how the Randle Yoruba Cultural Centre operates. Same thing was why the Yoruba built Orun Oba Ado in Ile Ife too.

The Yoruba conceived and built that centre. Same thing with our universities etc. Our successes keep helping to pull them back home, not by force. These strategies are carefully planned and executed to help bring back our talents back home. Success attracts more than failure

We can do better no doubt but the Yoruba are doing great.

If you go through how the Yoruba organized themselves after the annulment of June 12 Presidential election in 1993 by IBB and got back the Presidency without going to war with the rest of Nigeria, you will appreciate how truly sophisticated the Yoruba are.

Ghanaian President John Dramani Mahama, as a sitting President , went to Offa in Kwara state and declared that he is home and spoke in Yoruba. He identified himself as Yoruba but couldn't be as audacious as Stoneboy to declare he is a Nigerian. Which other tribe will have such clout? None.

Saying that you are Yoruba because you once belonged to the Oyo empire is like saying that all Nigerians are British because Nigeria once belonged to the British empire
