Omoawoke:
Okay, your opinion doesn’t change anything

The topic of that state's insecurity should be a topmost concern to you sir l

Kogi belongs to Fulani. Yurobas have since sold out

OneCandleAway:
Even Tinubu can't utter this statement.

Hon. Faleke is a Yoruba from kogi. He would have been the governor instead of bello had audu just remained alive to die after being sworn in.

In your wildest dreams he will never become governor of Kogi State as the two majority tribes determine that.

chiagozien:
There's no Yorubas in kogi, Yorubas are only in 5 south west states.

Smart Adeyemi is the current Senator of Kogi West. I guess Adeyemi is Hausa name

Shaketable:

Please ignore the guy.. He is simply employing dumb sarcasm to troll the Yorubas because I don't believe someone can be that ignorant after so many people have corrected him.

In these days of information overload on the internet and AI everywhere where you can get such information in the twinkle of an eye, I repeat, no one can be that ignorant except a jobless troll revelling in the unpaid engagements and cheap attention.

This is an advice coming from a full blooded Yoruba man whose dad is from Oke-Offin in Kabba Bunu LGA and whose mum hails from Aiyetoro Gbede in Ijumu LGA which are both situated in Kogi West..

I served in Jege village, Yagba east LGA and i can boldly say they're Yoruba people, Okun people.
He's indeed ignorant and not ready to learn

The day I hear say lukarawa enter ogbomoso.. that's the day I will believe Southwest is in trouble

Ferdinandu:

Name doesn't make one a yoruba.




Your in name is Ferdinand,are you from England?

That's your f**kin problem bro.. The people that are called Yoruba in kogi ain't complaining but you are here having headache for them.

tunary:
You call yourself a Nigerian, you have no knowledge about a particular location in Nigeria why not do a research about it instead of misleading people. I'm surprised you have some likes, meaning many of you have no knowledge about this.

Do not argue when you are not sure of something, instead, you find out online. Goggle is there for you.

why are you yorubas trying to forcefully claim other tribes.


Yorubas are not outside south west.

nwirinedu:
That is why I say leave your couch travel and know your environment.
Don't live your life on Google, most of the local information there is wrong and distorted.

I stay at kogi and they do say they are not Yorubas.

Why the attache by force?

Dagrace01:
Yagba east, yagba west and Kabba are yoruba speaking people. If you don't know something, try to learn

Lies, there's no Yorubas outside south west, that name sounds like Yoruba doesn't make it Yorubas.



People there never agree they are Yoruba.

Ruke1991:
They are migrant Yoruba settlers. Just because their parents migrated to kogi a century or two ago doesn't give them right to annex kogi lands. The Fulani emirate owns Kwara, kogi and the Hausa majority states. Any land where 40% are Muslims is owned by the sultan who conquered those territories long ago. Non muslims are allowed to live there as long they pay tax to the emirate. The bandits didn't step.out of their law. You have to respect the law of the land as enshrined by your host. The fulanis are only enforcing their ownership rights by driving out the Yoruba settlers who have trespassed and refuse to be submissive to their host by paying tax which non Muslims in conquered territories must pay or they face the sword option. In the far north, many conquered communities have agreed and negotiated to resume paying taxes to the fulanis as enshrined in the Qur'an. Yoruba settlers either negotiate and pay their tax or face the sword option. This is the Qur'an.

History says the Yorubas (Okuns) were already living in kogi state when the Fulanis came in the Early 19th century.

If history was part of school curriculum, some people would have been saved from their dumbness.

Christistruth03:
Dino Melaye who Obidients love so much because he opposes Tinubu is Kogi Yoruba
There are Yorubas in Delta and Edo too

Not only Delta and Edo.


Even in Anambra and Kano

So there are Igbos outside south East?

africanusvu:
And Sowore, a Yoruba man, is somewhere playing the dirty Nigeria politics of organizing protest for one Igbo terrorist, nnamdi kanu, he wants to fight for an Igbo terrorist to gain political relevance in igboland while his tribes men have been overtaken by same terrorists in kogi

okay he should fighting for Hausafulanis Terrorists?

ariesbull:
are these people Yoruba ? Bearing Tunde does t make one Yoruba ...Rotimi Amaechi isn't Yoruba

Bearing Ibrahim doesn't make you an Arabic also

Two can play the game

Tareq1105:
Fake news.

The writer failed to mention at least one name of any town or village that has been sacked by the bandits.

We all know that bandits are everywhere but at least if you actually see something then say something for people to know and it will be helpful to security agents too.

To me, the writer wrote this piece from his bedroom.

Open the Link for details.



I intentionally cut the text by half.

olabrad:
Lolz. Best way to know people with useless education. Even when facts stare them in the eyes, they still insist on being stupid than to accept their mistake . .

Attachment by for.

Kogi people don't have anything in common with Yorubas

Mrfeel:
There is Olukumi people in Delta that are yorubas

lolz not only in Delta even in Kano🤣🤣😂😂

Princewell2012:
Stop arguing about this, there some native and locals there that their language is Yoruba. This is very known fact.

That They speak language similar to Yoruba don't mean they are yorubas.


It just few words that influence their language because of Long time trading with Yorubas

Philosopher1979:
The solution is simole. If bandits try their nonsense then we yoruba will split from nigeria and declare odiduwa Republic. Its easy. We yoruba are the ones keeping nigeria together. Igbo have wanted to go since 1967. If yoruba wants to leave, igbo will join immediately and nigeria will come to an end. So let them do whatever. It will simply lead to thr dissolution of nigeria.

Chest beaters

Love800:
Okay. You are referring to the itsekiri people. You are half right though, because the itsekiris are sub-groups of yoruba.

Anyway, i appreciate.

Itsekiris tribe is not Yorubas.



Itsekiris is Itsekiris.


Yorubas is Yorubas

Crying 😂😂 because you were stopped from forcing other tribes to your yoruba tribe.

very incorrect, there is a yoruba speaking area in kogi
