ODUDUWA is from Olodumare. How do we come about YORUBA?

He believes the shii that Yoruba was given to Oyo by Hausa, meanwhile there's no historical evidence to back up this claim

Only Oyo and Northern Yorubas referred to themselves as Yorubas before the 19th century.

It was people like Ajayi Crowther a returning slave who forged a single Yoruba identity amongst the "Aku" "Eku"(Today's modern Youbas) people which included those that referred to themselves as Nago i.e. Nago-jebu (ijebu), Nago-ketu (in Benin republic). Hence, even in Liberia, the indigenous Yorubas of mixed orgin who migrated there long ago still refer to themselves as "Aku" people.

FFK from Osun was never referred to as Nago, they were referred to as Ife.

Hence, Ife hunters who found themselves in Togo today are referred to as Ana-ife or ife-Togo, not Anago or Yoruba.

LegendHero:
Rubbish!

I have true source of historical fact (in real print) that made mention of the Yorubas as far back as the 17th century even before the Hausa/Fulani made contact with the west.

Those are well documented in the library of Congress Mr. Man.

FFK is a deranged fellow with little knowledge about history, all he ever known was majorly hearsays which do not have any historical backing.

How can the white man know Yoruba with the name as far back as the 17th century and FFK now came out to say the Hausa/Fulani gave the Yorubas the name in the 18th century.

Many are mad but few are roaming, FFK is one of the few!

africanman85:
Stop lying. Do you want to tell me that yorubas were Moslems b4 the conquest by the Fulanis ?

Kennyswagz1:
abi defender of biafra.. he carry biafra matter for head pass Nnamdi kanu.

googi:
Ignorance could be a debilitating disease.

FFK and those that defined him should not include YORUBA in their lexicon.

Yoruba has been in existence as a name of a people before Hausa or FULANI became aware of one another.

Amed Baba was the first that we know to put it into writing in Songhai.

imhotep:
LOL.
He is also a very good in-law

mercyville:
Hausas and Fulanis were slaves in the old Oyo empire.They made the bulk of those who Afonja gave freedom..
Igbo were the only known slaves of the I jaws and I galas....2 minority tribes...
Yoruba had never been slaves to anybody..
