Breaking News: Oduduwa Is Benin Word Not Yoruba, Dele Giwa From Former Bendel by ibadantiti(op): 10:27pm On Sep 17, 2015
Things are really unfolding these days against the claims by Yorubas. Just like it was highlighted that Lagos is owned by Benins, it is revealed that Oduduwa is Benin people word shocked One wonders if Yorubas are real at all ? Why borrowing words and claiming things that originated from Benin without any credit to the originator ?

This is also same when Yorubas, due to brevity of the journalist Dele Giwa, Yorubas are claiming he was a Yoruba man but the fact is that Dele Giwa was from Old Bendel state...

Oduduwa is Igbo word for last born. Odudu nwa.
Go figure which tribe came from which. BTW, they called God same name: Olisah/orisha.

Since when did Mohammed become a northern name?
Mohammed sallah of egypt is from north?
2)Amaechi's full name is Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi Easy to see that his first name is "Chibuike" and not "Rotimi" regardeless how popular he's always referred to as Rotimi Ameachi

grin grin grin
Guy, to whom brain is given, common sense is expected. You have not displayed your own common sense, here. sad Where in your Wikipedia citation, does it show that the Yorubas claimed Dele Giwa? And for your information, the report stated that he was born to a "poor family working in the palace..". It did not say his parents were indigenes of the place. Na wa o! shocked And to think 7 clueless people liked your post, and 2 of them shared it with others without even bothering to verify if it was true or not!! shocked shocked

Anyway, let me leave the Yoruba people to give you an answer on this one. undecided

Does it increase your lifespan?
Does it increase your income?
Does it make your olosho to give it to you free of charges?
Does it eradicate gully erosion from alaigbo?
Does it make aba the cleanest city in west Africa?
Does it cure you of your lisping tongue problem?
So, what have you benefited?! undecided
