Yoruba are Yoruba anywhere

Unlike some impostors

bigfish3k:

Igboho is in Oyo state
Igbogbo is in Lagos
Ijebu igbo is in ogun state.

一边在！是

IJOBA11:

Anthonyoz:
a warrior that fight his brother is that one a warrior , which external force has he defeated ,Fulani are still killing his people sending them away from their ancestral homes making them a refugees in a neighboring country ,and his a warrior for fighting over land dispute , Yoruba fighting Yoruba since ages but cant fight external aggression that cowardice and not bravely,we Igbos there maybe internal issue but we don't elevate anybody as a warrior for fighting and killing his Brothers as a warrior that a taboo.

Lol
The Igbo policemen dead by the hands of ESN are Yoruba??
And Igboho has always fought against oppression
Oppression can come from anybody....Even your father
So why can't he fight oppression?

You guys have a very stupid mentality


The thing about IPOB is that you don't think for yourselves...nnamdi does the thinking

And obviously doesn't do it well

hollah123:
Nnamdi Kanu is an angel he can never make mistakes,take that n know peace.

Even when he called their mothers prostitutes n called them bastards they still hail him

Even when he calls them pigs n idiots they still hail him.

An ipob miscreants once said he doesnt believe in Jesus again cos he wasn't born then that Nnamdi Kanu is his own Jesus n Messiah. check everything on FB or follow oyigboupdate n u will understand them better.

They call Boko haram members different names but they don't know they are suffering from the same brainwashing

I seriously don't understand
I see what they post on Facebook

They're really brainwashed

Makes me doubt the fact that igbos have one of the highest IQs

The amount of brainwashing

Nigeriabiafra82:
Thank you
I can speak igbo very well that means am literate
So what of you


But wait I hope you are not trying to say that English is my first language ?
I know you are ignorant but not to that extent

Lol
If you don't know
Your first write up was very very stupid
Any man that can't speak his language (the language guess for teaching him in school) is illiterate
Simple.




Or are you waiting for nnamdi to think for you?

catfrog10:
There is something wrong with the brain of an average Yorubaa person. They just don't reason well even when they are educated. I'm honest with this. If you listen to Doyin Okpe and what he ranted, you ask yourself, how can this big man, allegedly educated and served in such high capacity under Jonathan say such a thing? Tells you how an average Yorubaa man reasons. Even the interview Dele Momodu had with Kanu, some questions he was asking Kanu were so stupid and senseless that I knew Kanu was just being proper.

Even listen to the responses of the Yorubaas replying here. Even rejoicing at the military alledegly killing ESN, same ESN fighting the bandits killing and pillaging Yorubaland. I just don't understand Yorubas at all...are they okay mentally?Even after coming here to insult and malign Kanu, these same people will go to Igboho page that has done absolutely nothing but media fanfare and praise him. Are these these people okay in the head at all? Bikonu?

Lol
This one is hi on something

Keep analysing Yoruba while the army kills your people

Nigeriabiafra82:
Speaking English does not translate to literate
Please how do black people think
For Christ sake
Chinese don’t speak English
Illiterate in England also speak better English

Mr English
Please come again
What did you say literacy is?

What rubbish
If you can't speak your first language well
You're illiterate
Simple.




Stupid fools always defending their supreme leader

Rashduct4luv:
I have read it once before over a decade ago and don't intend reading it anymore. You are still at that level. We have moved passed Moshay's rantings.
And only a fool would call a system that collects Zakah from the rich to give to the poor oppressive.
The only form of Shari'a you know is where killing or cutting of body parts is involved.

There is no hope

Coconuthead126:
Lagos historically was first occupied by the Bini people who established their military outposts in some parts of Lagos where they traded with the early European arrivals to the ports who happened to be Portuguese, they actually coined the name "Lagos". The etymology Eko has no meaning in Yoruba language (I dare any Yoruba to tell me the meaning of Eko in Yoruba translation). Some parts of Lagos are owned by the Awori's( the real indigenes of Eko who are not yoruba by the way)... Yaribas just like every other Nigerians in Lagos today were among the early migrants to Lagos... They have the British to thank for handing Lagos over to them since they somehow outnumbered the other tribes that migrated to Lagos... so historically aside from the Awori's who are the true aboriginals of Eko, and to some extent the Bini who were the first migrants to establish trading routes in Lagos with the Portuguese traders... no tribe actually has a legitimate claim to Lagos... for now Yaribas control the power structure but that won't last for long because they are fast losing their influence in the socioeconomic aspects of control in the affairs of Lagos as Igbos are taking over almost everything (real estate, markets, businesses, civil service, landed properties etc). I see a major power shift happening in less than 10 years when an Igbo man will DEFINITELY emerge as governor of Lagos state, and the Bini people are now fully aware that they have as much rights to the true ownership of Lagos as the Yoruba MIGRANTS... truly Lagos is no man's land.

Lol confused individual
I dare you and the entire Igbo to tell me the meaning of “igbo”

It means Indian hemp in Yoruba

Roast the cows and have a feast!!

Mrbillionaire:
OK thanks

You're welcome
I'm still updating it though
You from Abeokuta?

Mrbillionaire:
OBJ is not Egba but Owu.

Read the write up well
It says He is from Abeokuta
Not he is from Egba.

Abeokuta was a sovereign nation for 20 years and 11 months before the British amalgamated her with the rest of Nigeria. She had her own laws, Police Force, Civil Service and was well organized. The Alake was the head of the defunct government known as the Egba United Government from (1 February 1893- 1 January 1914). The amalgamation with the rest of Nigeria did not go down well with the Egba people and this resulted in the Adubi War (1918).

Abeokuta was founded in 1830, with Sodeke as her leader. The initial name of Abeokuta was “Oko Adagba” meaning “Adagba’s farmstead”-Adagba was an Itoko farmer. Sodeke who led the Egbas met him there. Abeokuta means ‘under a rock’, signifying the protection which the Olumo Rock offered the Egbas during attacks. Since the discovery of Olumo Rock, no one has fallen from it. Not even once.

Call me whatever you want, we won't support your stupid republic! And Insha'Allāh, we would do all we can do make sure it doesn't come to pass, eyin eleribu!

But you are happy the way the north is islamising and fulanizing us in our own land

You are not meant to be alive

Whether you kill yourself or not
We are going



God punish you and your terrorism

Demmzy15:
I'm a Yorùbá Muslim and I don't support this their republic. They're all shouting "Fulanis" but after getting rid of the Fulanis Yorùbá Muslims would be next, if we demand anything they'll tag us as fulanis or extremists. I can't support a republic where we would be oppressed, all the issues with Hijab have always been with Yorùbá Christians. If they can't tolerate Hijab, do you think they'll tolerate the Muslims in general when they demand for their rights?

You are nothing but a terrorist
You are the real afonja
Traitors
I don't pity people like you
You think they love 'cause you're practicing their religion?

When they kill your father and rape your mother

Pray to allah

Conrod:
We understand ur fears, not ur fault,its the way of ur forbears,you prefer things as they are,even if its unfavorable.

In as much as things are bad
Secession is not always the way
We should first become an autonomous region under Nigeria before we secede
If we become

Oduduwa
Arewa
Nigeria

At this time
I can assure you that things are very likely to go south
The region of the Niger will be very unstable

Be rational not emotional

How I wish Abiodun and Makinde were like Aketi
SW will be very stable

He's growing wings
I hope they don't finish him

I'm beginning to dislike him

Disintegration of Federalism is the only way
