Sorry to burst your bubble; no she is NOT a NORTHERNER, but from EDO; furthermore northern Muslims will not incite their youths, under false pretenses into the foolishness of wanton destruction of lives and property, at the expense of jobs, regional infrastructure and economy, as we witnessed in the largely southern EndSARS riots - we leave that foolishness to you advanced ppl in the south.

You are right!
Northerners can only incite violence and act like mindless savages when someone is accused of blasphemy, or when their preferred candidate loses an election.
You will not see them protesting against the dehumanization in the north.
You will not see them protesting against the carnage caused by Boko Haram.
You will not see them protesting against killings being perpetuated by bandit and fulani herdsmen in the north.

That is why its important to develop native languages for it's obvious many Africans find it difficult to decipher an English sentence that is not straight foward.


Obi said, "Having being governor of Anambra for eight years, I cannot live outside Anambra state, never. The only place where I have a house officially built is in Onitsha. If you see any house anywhere in Lagos, Abuja belonging to peter Obi, Confiscate it"

This is In the context of Nigeria...That was why he mentioned Nigerian cities.

Where did you see abuse?

I'm trying to educate you here, so listen and pay attention.

You sound like a young child. Probably 15-18? Am I correct?

Ogunsuyi, Oguntope, Oguntola etc are all Yoruba names. Edos have been adopting Yoruba names and culture since immemorial. We get it, you look up to your big brothers, but don't start stealing from your big brother.

Thanks for the lecture, and do have a beautiful night rest.

So you now agree that Ogun was imported to Benin by Yorubas, but you don't think Ogunsuyi is a Yoruba name borrowed by Edos. Dudeeee grin

Why the abuse?
where did i argue Ogun is not a yoruba deity?
Are you saying the fact that there's "ogun" attached to the name makes it a yoruba name automatically?

OGUNkioya
OGUNrobo
IgbinOGUN
IgbinIFA
IFAkioya

note: The OGUN and IFA remains yoruba deities, but that doesn't dispute the fact that those are edo names

Is Ogun a Yoruba or Edo god?
No one is talking about Osas, Ovia and the other rubbish you're using as evidence.
Type Ogunsuyi on Google and see how many Yoruba names pop up.

Ogun is likely one of those many gods imported to benin from yoruba land just like ifa, sango, ayelala etc.
what do you mean by rubbish? why can't you show some decorum? We are all here to learn and not to be disrespectful to others view.
Trust me when i tell the binis bears Ogunsuyi (with meaning likely different from that of yoruba).
And I'm not disputing the fact that yorubas also bears the name Ogunsuyi (with meaning likely different from that of the binis).

Guy, no b quarrel na

What does it mean in Edo? And when did Edos start worshiping Yoruba gods?

Oba suyi = Oba is worthy of honour
Ovia suyi = Ovia is worthy of honour
Osa suyi = Osa (God) is worthy of honour
Ogun suyi = Ogun is worthy of honour

Notice the bold are either deity or a respected/valuable figures

Is omosuyi omotuyi,... an edo name?
Because we bear these names in my town here in ilaje ondo state

Yes to the highlighted. The Edos answers that name (the one with S). Take note of the S and T in those two names.
Some other time the S could be substituted with R.

Lmao. This is not the Benin Uyi. Benin Uyi is a short form of a longer name. Ogunsuyi is Yoruba through and through. The progenitor of that name was a Yoruba man. Ogun-su-eyi. Edo people may have adopted the name. But Ogunsuyi is a Yoruba name through and through.

Osasuyi
Oviasuyi
Ogiesuyi
Obasuyi

Are those also yoruba names through and through

I'm patient enough to say 8 years but in 4 years the direction should be clear. Right now I'm impressed with anti-corruption but will be totally satisfied when the indicted men return all our money or executed by hanging.

I am aware that PDP members are working tirelessly to make sure Buhari fails but he needs to be aggressive on them like a General. He should show no mercy to any [size=16pt]PDP member[/size] involved in economic sabotage.


And what should he do to any APC member involved in economic sabotage?

What is the point in being free
When you can' t get no job
What is the point in being free
When you can' t get food
What is the point in going out to work
When others can get for free
What is the point in being free
When you don' t have no home

I can also notice same trend being repeated in this present administration because of their hate for GMB.

GEJ government had come and is gone, Buhari government is here and will be out also but, every institution that binds us together as a people will always outlive any individual occupying Aso rock.

There is more to this. People should open their eyes and see bad this govt is.

No! you're the one sleeping. So, wake up!!!

6 years ago, there was no AU support.

6 years ago, we've been soliciting the support of our neighbors (Niger, Chad etc.) by helping to prevent these cockroaches from using their countries as hideout.

6 years ago, we've been doing everything we can to procure more ammo to wipe out these cockroaches but, to no avail (thanks to the all-mighty WEST).

Well, all that changes some few weeks ago.

THAT IS WHAT HAS CHANGED!
