MelesZenawi:


I was only trying to let him ( Deadlytruth) know that Edos and Yorubas have same common history. infact both are highly inseparble...common history binds them together.


I deserve thank you from him and not insults.

A claim you are making without being able to adduce any supportive evidence?

This is a case of Ipob killing Ipob it's not our business

This is what happens when an android phone gets into the hands of a kid, boy ! just go back to the kitchen and bring maggi for for mother.

evidences are much ooo

stop arguing

What the purveyors of the argument did there isn't different from what you are doing here which is the repetition of sterotyped partisan politics based inferences without addressing the concrete and genuinely relevant contrary evidences placed before them.

With friends like this, who needs enemies?

The closest person to me in this world is my mother and I can't tell her my account balance. How much less someone not related to me in anyway?

The heart of man is desperately wicked and there are daggers hidden in men's smiles.

Oya, sebi this one is a faceless forum... Oya tell us your account balance.

Deadlytruth:


Elections are imperialist cultures and only in the mind of a wailing IPOBians can it become a criteria for ethnographic classifications and identies. I guess Bayelsans became Yorubas for voting for APC in their last guber elections? And Imo state became Oduduwa for voting for APC (Okorocha) in 2015? And even Anambra North Senatorial District became a Yoruba enclave for voting for Ngige the AC candidate against Dora Akunyili the PDP candidate in that contest?
And if we are to go by your standards, you Igbos are part of the larger Hausafulani family as you have since Independence always tilted towards the party of Hausafulanis than any other tribe.
In the build up to the 1959 elections you Igbos chose to align first with a Kano based party known as NEPU.
On getting to the floor of the parliament in 1960 you Igbos aligned with the Hausafulanis owned NPC and through that Balewa emerged prime minister.
In 1979 you again aligned with and voted for the Hausafulanis owned NPN.
In 1992 to 1993, your hearts were with the Hausafulanis owned NRC which swept the East in both guber and presidential elections in that era.
In 1999 you again went the way of PDP which was a metamorphosis of the Katsina Mafia owned PDM which leadership was domiciled in the Yaradua family. In fact in 1999 you Igbos gave bloc votes to Obasanjo because he was the North's preferred candidate and a willing stooge to the Northern Oligarchy.
So you are politcally of the Hausafulani family. No wonder the Fulani Herdsmen are all over your region today killing and maiming their Igbo brothers with impunity. Blood is indeed thicker than water.

your submission further lays credence to my assertion.

I am not against such related histories of u guys with west but only consolidating on it.

@melezenawi and @deadtruths please you people should sheath your sword. We are one only black race and one people. Shalom.

Unfortunately, he saw a thread about crime and all he could do was to turn it to a sociopolitcal matter. It shows he places politcs above the pain and injustice that befell he victim who happens to be his own brother even.

Okay, you now agree to my position that you Igbos bear stronger and even actual ancestral ties to the West. Okay. Thanks.

stop twisting my words....nothing like that exist today or even tomorrow

Haven't I dropped some of those facts already only for you to remain in denial without adducing any contrary facts or argument? There are numerous other threads in which such stereotypes and propaganda have been dispelled and put to bed with unassailable facts. Why didn't you equally reference them?

I only pigeonholed the whole scenario accordingly while correcting a moniker that the culprit tilt historically with him.


be guided on making frivolous claims.

Just as you twisted my words as regards my comment on your shared politcal history with Hausafulanis and the Sokoto Caliphate by implication.
I insist that Igbos share ancestral links with Yorubas. I have provided evidences from the words of a first class Igbo manarch the Obi of Onitsha. And mind you that all Igbos generally agree that Onitsha people are the genuinely full blooded Igbos. So whatever their monarch says about Igbo origin and history is the gospel truth.

Altrarecords:


Read the topic again slowly this time and see if you realize how stupid your quote was

And how would you know I didn't read the OP in the first place?

Now, read what I wrote from the beginning and tell me if it suggests or points at anything tribalistic? Does it? If it didn't? Now, go tell daddy and mummy at home and let them remind you how stupid their son is. Oh, or better still, let your younger brother who's now wiser than you remind you how STUPID you are.

I do pity you tho because you can't seem to read nor understand simple English.

And I explained that the monicker did so out of a similar ignorance/quest for politcal correctness which Igbos too are guilty of.
The mere fact that he is Yoruba but sees Edo as an Ipob enclave despite all glaring contrary evidences is similar to Igbos perception of Edo as Ooduans despite the preponderance of unassailable evidences to the contrary. This is the long and short of my argument.

if I am not mistaken both shows the convergence of bini and yoruba history. both are like siamese twins heavily inter twined.

if not such arguments can't keep coming up.

the link is more like an addedum to other two with strong evidence.

not wrong to see Edos as ooduas afterall oduduwa and oranmiyan has her history here and strong at that.

your argument is on sided. the correction I gave to the young man is the well balanced one.

ancestral links with Yorubas ends inn edo state. we have names like olusegun, tundein edo state? is that another twisting?

you just don't want to come out and stand plain with truth that Edos and Yorubas are same people

DON'T TRUST ANY BODY & ALWAYS KEEP YOUR SECRETS SECRET.

The youths glorify fraudsters and thieves who kill to make it. Their peers hail them for 'making It' by crooked ways and want to be like them.
Most parents even take the pride to say, 'my child has made it' without verifying the source of wealth.
Lazy and wicked youths who can kill for money, beware! God will judge you one day. After making all the millions, what next? Your entire life would be doomed! Your happiness mortgaged forever.

Righteousness89:
This is the Endtime Generation

An Evil Generation

An Unholy Generation
A Generation that hates God
A Wicked Generation
A Generation that hates the people of God.
A Generation that hates Righteousness
A Generation of Destroyers and Vipers
A Generation of Fraud and Corruption
A Generation that Glories in Wickedness
A Generation of Killers and Murderers
A Generation of People that Despise God
A Generation that hates People who are good
A Generation that Hates to Hear the Truth
A Generation of People that drink and eat Immorality and Celebrate Evils!

Listen to Me,

God Almighty did not Spare The Generation of Sodom and Gomorrah

God did not Spare the Generation of Noah

Except the people Repent and Turn to God and flee from Worldliness, Wickedness, Abominations and Evils of all kinds,

This Generation will Go the same way!!

Work out your Salvation with Fear and Trembling..

The signs of what is coming is Visible all over the World!

It is a Fearful thing to fall into the hands of an Angry God..

But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

Except you Repent! and Come to JESUS, you shall Likewise Perish!

They that Hath Ears to Hear!!! Let them Hear!!

Ogbeni calm down, our generation is never the worst generation to have lived. Make your researches. Anyway, which set in secondary school was not the worst set in their school.

Stop glorifying evil. The present generation of youths are something else.
They can kill for money and fame.

The same argument has started coming up for Yoruba vs Igbo. And unlike that of Edo vs Yoruba which emanated online from no identifiable authority, that of Igbo was stirred up by the highest traditional figure in Igbo land.

Edo State is actually home to different tribes, at least 17, which speak different languages and bear different cultures. So how does it even make sense that they are all related to Yorubas who don't even understand any of these languages?
Anyway, why would I even be surprised about it when it is coming from an IPOBian who claims to be a cousin to each and every SS tribe which are in themselves different from one another?

Yoruba shares ancestry with Igbo. Direct your pains over it to the Obi of Onitsha who so affirmed.

first of all obi of onitsha never said such
secondly your first paragraph can stand even 0.01 percent scrutiny meaning it will be dismissed with a wave of hand...

Slynation:

The person must have a next of kin... But since the family doesn't even know the bank s/he uses, then its well.... But some bank staffs are criminally minded people, once you come as the next of kin with the report like "The owner of the account holder is dead" hmmm... It's free access for them to steal some of the funds in that account, in fact any amount they give you just collect in peace...

my thoughts exactly. But someone already clarified that.
