Hmm, we hope say these people no wan go claim kogi. Dem dun leave kwara now, dey come kogi.


Make e clear for left side and leeches, one inch of igbo place will not be left behind. The igbo sides of kogi no go get debate. Igbos are indigenous to some parts of kogi. If una like make una carry sharia come kogi, just know say, that sharia canopy no hover igbos. Thank you.

6 local government areas is a joke to you..
We are formally in Kwara before formation of kogi.

Once you reach kogi west areas, you will definitely know you're in yoruba land.

Proudly Yoruba!!!
Is this really why you Yorubads have been struggling like cockroaches since the Rivers Igbos reunited with their upland brothers.

Igbos have trade, they have businesses unlike Yoruba that are mostly skull miners....

When it's other tribes you Yorubas will be trying to divide them. Imagine the attacks you Yorubads have given the Ikweres for the last few day when they reutuned home as Igbos and reconciled with the upland brothers.

WIKE, Amaechi, Odili, FUBARA and almost all prominent people in Rivers are Rivers Igbo.

Anyways, Congratulations to the Ikweres and other Igbos in Rivers state.

In no particular order. As a Yoruba man from Kogi, I noticed there's less discussion about the Okun people. So I made this compilation of famous Okun people. We're one Yoruba people, this is not a competition against any other subgroup. Also, none Yoruba people should keep off, this thread is not for disunity, but just one more glory of the Yoruba people.
