Culture6 Popular Quirks Of Real Yoruba People by Revolva(op): 10:26am On Dec 06, 2015
Certainly one of the three largest ethnic groups in Nigeria and often referred to as a tribe, the Yoruba are known to occupy most of southwestern Nigeria as well as the Republic of Benin in southeastern and central Dahomey.

They thrive on unique traditions and a rich cultural heritage, and as such, the way of life, attitude and personality of their true indigenes are quite peculiar. While most argue that attitude and personality are not dependent on culture, it is irrefutable that your place origin of sets you up with quirks that single you out as unique.

Ever met a Yoruba person and immediately figured out who they were in mid-conversation or just by observing?



The ‘Aaah’ interjection

So many jokes have been made and skits produced on how frequently the Yorubas use the long “aah” sound as interjections, but it is no put-on. From joyful outbursts, complaints, sorrowful proclamations and stern commands or admonitions, real Yourba indigenes repeat the sound in nearly every conversations. If you find someone who does this, be amiable enough to let it slide.

The favorite curse word ‘Ode’


Ode literally translates as “fool”, and while it may not necessarily sound harsh or compare in abrasiveness with the regular western curse words, it is the Yoruba favorite go-to word for cursing out assailants. Matter of fact, it is so common that pre-teens around the area also use it in random conversations.

The “abi”, “shebi” and ‘ni’ end phrases

This is more like a cool thing for most Yoruba people now as it gives different meanings to different phrase and helps listeners gain different interpretations. It is now so widespread that they commonly adapt it in other languages like English and even French. Have you ever heard someone say something as absurd as “It’s my own ni” in an argument, or “Your name is Jennifer, abi?” that person is most probably a Yoruba person who thinks he is cool.

The silent “H”

The most famous quirk of the Yoruba which affects how they speak every other language is the silent “h” or as it is popularly called, the “H” factor. This is a dead give away for most yorubas. Note that while this is usually recognized in their articulation of English, it is also present in how they speak other languages including local dialects like Hausa and Igbo.

About the name being too igbotic: from experience i have learnt that the brand name matters but not as much as product popularity and acceptance. Once the product inundates the market and gets great sales, IVM brand can and would compete with any international brand.
International brand......lol e go Tey ooooo.......,a who wan buy am...lol.

With all these lecturers ...I think I will go with how kabba people I met see themselves as Yoruba

Yoruba is even a colonial coinage Yoruba most towns before colonial never identified with the term Yoruba and some still decided to stick with their clan identity

So why this headache
There is notin you can stop pls read dis

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kogi


And click the okun link n see where it directs u. To......oga I beg go n learn. I have visited kabba n it's yoruba they speak and behave like iys a very dry place so un developed....everytin I see there is yoruba ok no tell me anything bout there

Again you know notin bout igala idomas relationship with igbos...you are too political divided.....its bad......igalas r brethren to igbos....the late audu speaks igbo like hell....i know many igalas that do so..infact where in igbo land r u from?

Oga okay what of nupe that bear some names with Yoruba or these anonga people in Togo maybe you call them Yoruba also

The bottom line is that the few kabba I know are not seeing themselves as Yoruba .they don't believe oduduwa story and they don't look towards ife . no wonder they are not in afenifere but arewa

Let's respect their wishes ...some might see themselves as Yoruba while .any won't

That's life

Just like idoma and igala people bearing the same names with Igbo ..Igbo doesn't see them as Igbo
Well nupe is a tribe different...they own lokoja LGA n one other local govt....kabba okun pple r gar damm yorubas...ok its political time they say arewa even the arewa don't even give a damm about middle beltans..+k look know ur origin.....

Okun is a dialect in yoruba.....spoken by the yoruba kogis..+k that lady is a lost sheep...so where is she from and pls can I know her surname.....


Again igalas n idomas have ancestry lineage with igbos ok get that straight.....ok you should also know in northen anambra there r igalas community even in Enugu bit of idomas share d same..these are boundary towns.....even the diety the agu leri pple use is igala origin....so bros..cool down don't be a bigot....ok I bet if u see me the way I behave u will even think am igbo...I grew with igbos...do biz n they even take me as a brother...look you igbos r way too bigotry don't you know southern igalas n idomas behave like igbos. In my village we marry igbos n many of the igbos married speak igala...- know many ple. Tend to look the whole igala as Muslim...Noooo southern kogi state r not like the nothern kogi pple...where most politician come from don't u know ..in nature that's to tell u in ancient times.....somehow somewhere igbo land extended to there ..again there r yorubas in benin rep. N Togo. Ok if u don't know...4o why yoruba no go de kogi state....imagine....

What a tribe!!! These selfish and heartless people that are called igalla. Haaba!!! You started ruling in kogi state since the inception of the state, the okuns and Igbirras who are joint owners of the state with u people never for once complaint. None of ur government brought development to the state rather setback is all the state could account for still the true citizens never complain. U took away all the state's belongings to ur zone, these people still keep calm. U have been in government for over eighteen years these people did not protest or fight for the their right. What a shameful creature!!! Now wonder the meaning tribe in yoruba's language, igalla which translate to an animal called antelope. You are indeed animals in humans bodies.
Shut up there....wat do you mean state belonging to. Even apart. From the state capital lokoja which is owned by non igalas that is more developed..the next most developed town is okene - owned by ebiras...waat do u mean every good thing is in igala land...-itss wrong na....even igala land still suffer. The same thing other part suffer...

As for igalas ruling...I don't. Support another igala man to rule again let ebira. Rule....i. Will be happy but not a okun person....how can faleke who is a speaker in lagos state come n rule a state where he has not been part of....

I am igala by origin but lived in lagos....you guys should learn more bout the igala tribe before u start sayin nonsense
