I don't know. I want a Nigeria where federalism will be practised instead of this unitary system we are practicing. Whether Nigeria divide or not is not really my problem. I just want make this country start developing.

The ruler of Ilorin when the British arrived was a Yoruba man Called balogun alanamu.

The last Emir Momoh had been defeated by the Yoruba Chiefs and had burnt himself alive inside his Palace

Ilorin has Fulani Presence only because the British reimposed the defeated Emir on Ilorin around 1897

Before that balogun Yoruba (Inakoju alanamu) was the actual ruler of Ilorin.

The Emir had been deposed by the Ilorin Yoruba Chiefs before the British arrived.

balogun alanamu fought the British and was exiled to Jebba after the British defeated him.

It was the British that reinstaled an Emir in Ilorin after the defeat of balogun Yoruba Inakoju alanamu due to Political Pressure from Northern Emirs .

The Emir of Ilorin had been defeated and deposed by the Ilorin Yoruba Chiefs before the British arrived.

The British left at Independence after an agreement was made to have a referendum Kwara State.

The Post independence Government of Balewa and Azikiwe frustrated that referendum by not carrying out the Kwara referendum which should have happened at the same time as the Midwest referendum in order to cripple Awolowo and his Party Politically after Awolowo had been jailed in 1962

Balewa and Azikiwe also didn't Carry out the other referendums agreed with the British before independence meant for the Eastern and Northern Minority Ethnic groups.

Ilorin still has an Emir because of Colonial and Tribal Politics

BiafIntel:
You are daft for thinking that those writing all this imaginary south south and niger delta are actually the people of the Riverine areas of Biafra. These are nigeria agents and we know them when they come up with their usual nonsense. They are usually afonjas and mostly the half-educated fulanis There are many coastal people of Biafra who want to join us in Biafra and those people must be given a voice via referendum and there is nothing you can do about it. Neither your or the nigerian agents have the right to deny them their right to a referendum.
If you want Igbo only Biafra, then start your own group and convince Igbos to follow you. So far as the present agitation is concerned, IPOB under Mazi Nnamdi Kanu leads while others follow from far way behind and IPOB's ideology is that of Biafra of all Biafra nations. You are a man i guess and you have penis like Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, so stop coming online here to disturb us with your Igbo-only Biafra nonsense. Get down to work like Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and let's see your followers.
Leave them alone

Leave the Yoruba name out of your madness
Yoruba has never wanted superiority

It has always been between the Fulani and Igbo
Yoruba has always wanted true federalism
That is why they call us tribal champions
We mind our business


Yoruba also has all resources including oil


So face the Igbo superiority madness

Leave Yoruba alone

Obasanjo was a Yoruba man but it didn't show
But let a Igbo man become president
You'll see how the SE will develop

Lol. if Itshekiris is Yoruba why didn't Oni of Ife intervene in their recent crisis? Why did Ayeri acknowledge the Olu after meeting the Oba? Have you seen the Itshekiris mascot and ancestral shrine?? I wonder if you've been to warri while I've lived in the palace. You talk of Ginuwa as the only connection to Benin but you refuse to acknowledge who Ginuwa is.


Oranmiyan didn't Originate Benin, rather, Igodomigodo gave birth to Oduduwa. lol....

Benin is far bigger than you think or you want to talk of the Lagos king stool?
I said Yoruboid not Yoruba
And all that elkaderen and igomidodo shit is 21st century concocted bullshit

Why does Itsekiri have OPC?
Oduduwa's people Congress?

Look at how jet black skin they are like Yorubas. These are majority Ijaws. The day I went to Nembe, I was shocked to how dark skin they are like south sudanese and Senegalese, and I kept asking the people with me, who are these people for God in Heaven? They don't look like native easterners at all, they look very different, more like Yorubas. I was told the Ijaws in present day Bayelsa and Ondo border from mixing with Yorubas had migrated to Nembe years ago. I said no wonder, they can't be native as they look different from Easterners native.

Etrusen:
Another craziness
This is on their Wikipedia page

The Olukwumi people is a subgroup of the Yoruba people of the Aniocha North area of the Delta State, Nigeria. The Olukwumi occupy eight communities west of the Niger river, and are together known today as the Odiani Clan in Aniomaland. Historically, the Odianis are the Yoruba clans in the Anioma cultural area. Ukwu Nzu (Eko Efun) town is the historical headquarters of the Olukwumi people and is traditionally headed by the Obi of Ukwu Nzu, Agbogidi The present Obi is H.R.M. Obi Ogoh 1. Olukwumi villages select leaders through the Okpala Obi system, which is the Okpala (gerontocracy) of the Yorubas. The Odianis today are seen as Igbos in Delta State, together with the Ezechime who and Idumuje clan . The Anioma people are the Igbo subgroup from Aniocha (Enuani and Olukwumi), Ndokwa (Ukwuani), Ika, and Oshimili areas of Delta State.

Igboid:
They are not Yoruboid.
Look elsewhere!
Odiani are bonafide Enuani people who accommodated Yoruba warriors and acculturated them into Igbo culture.
As I said if the people say they are Yoruboid

You have no say

This is the reason igbos are not respected

You can't force them

Do you know that most Yoruba in Brazil and cuba are called lucumi a curruption of olukumi?
Elliotwaveforec:
I have a friend from that part of Delta state; the dialect sounds like Ilaje. Being from Delta state, I took him as an Itsherkiri but said he is Olukunmi. I was surprised because the only Yoruba subgroup I thought existed in Delta state was Itsherkiri.
