Cybaghost:
lol I suspected as much. Olise should be an Igbo name normally but I am not from delta to know if Urhobos answer same name. Guy is probably Igbo

He is not Igbo but a Deltan
Urhobo/Ndokwa ethnicity

Pootle:
he betrayed his father land because of some euros

Michael Orise the son of Sunday Orise is from Abavo in ika south local government area,Agbor in Delta state

Definitely from anioma i live in delta state i have never seen an uhrobo person bearing olise the father obviously has an uhrobo mother that's why he has an uhrobo middle name.

Thank God he dodged a bullet not playing for Naija...him career for spoil like our economy

Like lookman or Osimhen

Titogbanski:
I have seen Urhobo answering names like that? My friend family though Urhobo has strong Kwale background. Their father was taken to Kwale area at a young age by the mother and some of the children have Kwale names. Though Urhobo, they speak both language fluently.

Urhobo and Ukwuani interaction is very strong, I even heard that at a time the Ukwuani greeting was also Megwor/Vrendo in the Urhobo pattern before they changed it. I dont know how true that is but it only shows the depth of interaction between both groups. Many families in the Orogun/Abraka axis of Urhobo speak both languages fluently and sometimes bear names that cut accross

This is true. However, you have to pay attention to the surname to know the true identity. Their first name and middle name can intermix but the surname is the key. His father's surname is Olise and that name does not have any meaning in Urhobo Language. But then I agree with you that they share names due to geographical proximity.

Olise does not have any meaning in Urhobo language. However, due to geographical proximity with the Anioma people, it is possible that the father is mixed Anioma/Urhobo

Oliseh himself is not from Abavo. Abavo is his mother's home town.

Deltan is not an ethnic group and the Urhobos are distinctly different from the ndokwa sub-ethnic group. We the Ndokwa people are part of the larger Igbo nation.

Na lie

Orogun Kingdom in Urhobo land bear Olise too, they share boundaries with Ukwani people. Olise's father could be from there cos I use to have one of my teachers back then in primary school in the 90s whose name is Olise but she's not from Anioma or Ukwani but she is a full blooded Urhobo. So stop this tribal claim for he is of Nigerian heritage
