In the digital world, programmers and coders try to harmonize their codes such that people from all over the world can participate and add value. It’s never about who started it, but the impact it plays in producing products that are invaluable to human existence.

This current trend by the Lagos government is reinventing a wheel that is a total waste of time, resources and a distraction from more important issues. Nigeria is losing out on being involved in global decision making/ global value chain, can someone explain how knowing physics in Yoruba will aid in building a plane or car? Even China sponsored student to the US and UK to learn in English and bring value home.

The laws/legal system we practice is western and is such that everyone who lives in the region should be able to make use of it. Should all lawyers in SW re-enroll in a Yoruba school of legal studies and start over?

Build more museums instead, invest in heritage sites, build statues, modernize your local cuisines, sponsor carnivals etc.

To those who support this trajectory my question is, is divisiveness the only thing the Blackman is good at?

Translate it into the three major languages too, especially Igbo. Igbos are 50 percent of Lagos population, Hausas are 15 percent and Yerubas are 35 percent

Open a circus,bro...You be clown

MadPolitician:
Much ado about nothing..
Songs of inferiority complex.. Siege mentality..
I mean, do it already and stop with the shenanigans..This noise have been going on since APC came to power.

You can go the extra mile to tell all Yorubas in Lagos not ever transact anything with anyone who does not speak Yoruba. Put your feet down on that and stop disturbing us everyday with all these talk about the need to yorubanise Lagos state.

All I ask for is to have a new financial capital for the country in one of the littoral states. Calabar? Warri? Akwa Ibom? Lagos is tired of "accommodating" us , it is time the get tired of accommodating all the federal government largesse they corner every year..
There!

Sheuns:
LOL. Who told you that? Have you been to any Awori and Egun settlement to find out?

Dalohad:
If you don't comment on the thread, you will not die..

Stop being a retard and applaud the gesture.

Cho cho cho is not a sign of wisdom.

MadPolitician:
Is it Dalohad or DULLARD!?!?!

Dareal90s:
They speak Yoruba fluently, even their words are almost same as the general Yoruba just intonation that is different.

Hope the Yoruba's will not start crying when other states follows especially Niger-Delta

https://x.com/Mr_JAGs/status/1891593043792306656?t=ocRoUzSYDJEX02DYV6rgAw&s=19[/quote]Beyond these language changes, let the Lagos government intensify efforts to reduce non-regional workers from its workforce. It is pointless to feed your enemies in your own territory.

There are true immigrants who have shown themselves responsible for the institutions in Lagos state...there are some people from other regions whose efforts are to submerge the peace and progress that an average Lagosian is currently benefiting from the state...so, the government should do more in channeling the benefits of the state to aid the wretchedness and challenges of its people in its region territory first before considering sharing such benefits with some ingrates from other

Yoruba are people from Oyo. Aworis are not from Oyo.

Did Oduduwa call himself Yoruba?

Is there any Odu Ifa that made reference to the word “Yoruba”

When Ife kingdom was trading in wheat, cotton, ivory, glassbeads e.t.c with Mali in the 12th -14th century, people from (Ufe) Ife were referred to OloRIOba, ORUBA, yORUBA people & there is one king that is referred to Olori Oba till date i.e. The Ooni of Ife
More reading below from a book written in 1864.

EmperorCaesar:
He was saying that only Oyo people are Yoruba, meaning Ondo,Ekiti and co arent Yoruba...Oduduwa also wasnt Yoruba because he wasnt from Oyo

They have all this energy but can’t Channel it towards ending ritual killings and skull mining in SW.

GeneralPula:
Ibos are actually 500%..

statesman6:
They are going around to force themselves inside local government. Some of them forcefully break local government gate. One sacked illegal APC local government chairman vandalized pdp chairman candidates car yesterday in Ife east and ran away when they want to deal with him.

After translating to Yoruba, what’s the fate of the real indigenous people of Lagos Awori and Egun?

musicwriter:
Indeed, the law governing a people should be in their language. English should actually be a translation meant for outsiders if we were in our right state of mind.

Hemanwel:
Since this thread is about Yoruba language and translations, what is the English meaning of the Yoruba name, "TIÁRÁOLUWA"?
