ShymmexLion: I just checked his wiki page and you're right. He's Benin.

I need to jump on youtube, search for his tunes when I get home, and get jiggy to that this cold friday - Sir Victor Uwaifo is a legend!

Err...you need to post more often with fresh face and sexy eyes.

ShymmexLion: The name "Uwaifo" sounds Igbo, though. Perhaps, he's Igbanke.

But "Guitar Boy" and "Jolomi" are heavy.

Guitar boy, if you see mamiwater never run away.

ShymmexLion: I hear that. No beef - just thought you need to give Ghanaians some credit. Anyway, can you post videos of Igbo highlife? I don't really know much about that genre of music except Prince Nico Mbarga's "Sweet Mother" and the "Osendi Owendi" tune. I don't know if Sir Victor Uwaifo is highlife, but my pops used to play his music a lot when I was growing up.

abdulkayus: my guy, u lied. U can never found baby factory in d north. Dey dont even knw abt dat.
And also ur assertion dat no tribe encourage pre marital sex is false. In d south west, dey believe in pregnancy b4 marriage and even encourage it. Dat one is rare in south east sha. Bt in d north, dey abhor dat alot. Mind u, am a Yoruba guy, its in south west, u will c where a father will said he will nt accept a bride until she is pregnant for his son. WTF. Jus imagine dat. D rate of preg out of wedlocj in too much in south west cos it has been socially accepted, bt its still been look down upon in d south east and north. In SW, hardly, u will enter any house or compound witout seeing a bastard. Its jus too annoyin cos am frm SW. And d issue of cheatin married men and women in SW is anoda topic reserved for anoda day.

shymexx: ^^^Lmao... I was just messing about with the "commonwealth" thing - they're a different ethnic group now, and they should be respected for that... However, I just want the best for them because some of them might be from my extended bloodline....

Are you the one your profile? You've got a proper Yoruba face and the Afrocentric hairstyle looks like 18th century Yoruba hairstyle - me likey...

You should come on here more often...

shymexx: Interesting post, Valena... Anyway, are you Itsekiri?? I read somewhere that some Itsekiri families still maintain their Ijebu lineage family lineage, how true is that And what's the Itsekiri religion(s)

Also, since they have culturally been assimilated by these other ethnic groups that are in close proximity to them, why's there so much inter-tribals among them? - Itsekiri vs. Urhobo and Itsekiri vs. Ijaw?? And also the struggle for the ownership of Warri... I know they don't really have problems with Edo people and their royal crown is an Edo crown... Perhaps, Itsekiris should be carved out of Delta and added to Edo state - what do you think??

Anyway, Itsekiri is now a distinct ethnic group and they should be respected... Oritsebunmi...

shymexx: How do you mean??

I was messing about when I posted the comment... However, I'll like to know how they're cultural different when "olokun"(an Ijebu/Yoruba deity) is also an Itsekiri deity... Can you explain further, sis.. Cheers...

shymexx: Itsekiris are most Ijebus, they belong to our commonwealth...

Ikwikwikwi: Why do you chose a Yoruba man of all Nigerian men? You better remain single than marry a Yoruba man because he will definitely marry another woman

supaeagles: Like seriously, how can you live 'under a cave'?? Maybe rock or stone......ehh-heee
