Agba baller? Yoruba?

Sounds more igbo
What does Agba mean in Igbo?

Very irrelevant and childish argument all over the place. Leaders and politicians don't care about your ancestry when it comes sharing loot among themselves. Sport stars don't care also. They are more focused on what matters. But here, it's always this irritating argument all day long.

Agba Baller is actually Igbo slang
It's yoruba's slang coined by street Boyz in lag for assisat oshoala, used by flavour in his song

It sounds Igbo and Hausa i guess. Yeye thing.
Oga na Igbo boy.... Rio Chima Ngumoha from Abia State. Not even today that we all know this.
Ngumoha is is Igbo , Chima is Igbo so what's the argument here. If you like you can take him, it doesn't matter

Leaders and politicians are the ones that care the most about ancestry when it comes to sharing loot among themselves.

that's why the civil war was fought to prevent Ijaws from been extremely wealthy and share in the resources that was exclusively meant to go to Ijaw people then other Oil wells were found in other tribes and the laws used to corner Ijaw people's wealth was also used to corner Efik, Ibibio and other peoples wealth...

You mean like someone who edited his Wikipedia page to add Adigun without proper reference was caught out and the edit deleted eventually, right?

No, this is not Wikipedia but the product of a proven research, and it was not edited on Monday.

Don’t mind those guys that are trying hard to remove Adigun from his name by force. Maybe they know more than him that added it to his name on social media.

Somebody's official surname is Adigun and you claim people are claiming him.... anyway we'll leave that usual skill to una wey de claim Jesus and Obama.

I have seen his IG page. That could only mean his mother is a Yoruba woman or he picked it up as a nickname. Someone said his mom is also Igbo but it is yet to be verified.

Have you heard anyone mention the state in South West he is from?

Create a thread for that na. Everything no be competition

Which Nigerian Language uses the world "Agba'?

Does Nigeria even have one Language? All those borrowed Warri and Edo words in our Pidgin, does it stop them from being originally Warri and Edo words?

Yorubas dey claim anything at all? Abeg, mention one thing/or person wey no be Yoruba wey dem claim

Till today, I havent seen Yorubas forcefully claim Kabba in Kogi the way you claim PHC as part of Ig-boland

Thats rich, coming from you cheesy
IGBOS say oma *Agba* ball.

Meaning he knows how to play football very well so IGBOS can also manage this one too.

But in all ,the appreciation is welcomed. The effort is what matters.

Nice one Liverpool

I just showed you who edited Wikipedia to add Adigun as his surname. His father is from Abia State.

You can also:
1. Show who edited my source page.
2. State the state his father is from as a rebuttal (with credible evidence)

But Adigun is a strong, core Yoruba name.

😊

it could mean many things...

it could mean one of his parents maybe half igbo half yoruba.

it could mean his father is igbo and mum is Yoruba since it is the surname that will be on the back of his jersey.

it could mean he grew up with his igbo mum and his Yoruba father did not marry his igbo mum and was not present in his life so by igbo culture he then takes his igbo mum surname..

until there is a picture of him and his parents together with their names written then we would never know...

I believe if his father was Yoruba he would have a Yoruba 1st name.

I have seen Yorubas claim illorin in Kwara state,north central Nigeria. Which is a known Fulani enclave and state.
What is ILORIN in Hausa or any other Northern/Nigerian language? Tell me.
I will tell you what it means in Yoruba so you know ILORIN is 98% Yoruba in population.
I am Yoruba and graduated from the UNIVERSITY OF ILORIN.
Tell me your own perspective of argument and why you get the right to argue in the first place.
No Be Juju Be Dat?
