It's actually 'Igbekere' and it's native to Odogbolu, though it's now called 'Ipekere' just as we have now added 'k' to 'Ponmo' and 'h' to 'tatase' and removed 'n' from moin-moin.

Anyways, Yoruba are blessed with words in our language, we even have 2 to 3 different words for same thing while some people don't have even 1 and have to burrow and then pretend to forget it's not theirs.

Examples are

Old / New / English

Aya / Iyawo /wife
Baale / Oko / husband
Oole / moin-moin/ bean soufle
Iye / Iya/ mama / mom
Iba / baba / father
Ipeku / apoti/ box seat
Ile iwe / ile eko / school
Orisun / ibere / beginning
Sun / ke / cry
Bo / de / arrive
Eke / iro / lie
Ooyo / ewedu / jute
Odukun / anamo / sweet potato
Omu / Oyan/ breast
Inu / Ikun / stomach
Oka / Agbado / corn
Ewu / Aso / Clothes
Iwogbe / Jigi / Mirror

Lots of Igbo’s went to Jamaica. That’s true. So did Yoruba’s too. I think more Igbo’s though. There are Yoruba towns like Abeokuta in Jamaica. Akara is a Yoruba word, and Akara Aje or Akaraje simply means Akara meant for sale or meant for the market to make money. It’s not Igbekere but Ipekere. Just like Boli, a Yoruba word has now become Bole!

Nigeria has never been a nation and we welcome it's end, out of its ashes will 5 real nations rise to fulfill their destinies.

Trinity international university? Never heard of that. Ok, one of those schools without accreditations, a 2 bedrm apartment size university you can donate $1,000 to and get a honorary degree.

Where is the hot air?

Does the picture I posted look like McClure girl? That's Akuyili's daughter at her wedding.

For the last time, go and check the picture of Akiyili's (i already posted that) and Ngozi Okonjo Iweala's daughters, both married to white men and see what ugly is, stop acting dumb around here.

khiaa:
I'm not trolling, if you are talking about that McClure girl, she isn't a sister of mine.

And you are in torment of your miserable present and derailed future.

chichar1:
I can see that you are suffering from your misguided life

I thought I'm the one who couldn't find Tinubu's name on the list. It just goes to show how Tinubu has kept a whole tribe in pain. The low-news-day guguru at'epa reporter just had to hurriedly add Tinubu's name for the news to get attention.

dotedote:
Tinubu's name is not even on the list.
Reactions everywhere.

quote author=KINGOFTHEEAST post=70106487]for the first time I will agree with these Muslims to arrest the above name especially that imbecille cum frog eye thieefnubu

You are trolling, come back another time.

chichar1:

Abeg let the civil war happen already, it has always been an opinion, anything to help divide this country.

Go and drown in your erosion, liar! I know anambra to be a place where erosion is moving the inhabitants back to the forest of Cameroon where they came from, and the people are begging the Fg for my tax dollars to save their muddy asses. You can see your fraudulent way at play again, who is lying? Your leaders who are begging the Fg to be saved from erosion or it's you that now claimed "it's the work of a local firm handling the road project" either way, you don't mind your business, so don't expect me to mind mine. As you know Ijebu Ode is more important than all your 5 states combined.

chichar1:
ogbeni shut up!!!!!!!!! what do you know about anambra state? the incident that happened three weeks ago,due to bad work been done by a local firm handling the road project, so mind your business in ijebu ode and leave anambra alone

Don't drag others who have complete language to it, it's you Igbos who have
language problems and have burrowed half of your words from Yoruba.

Nightmareo07:
Language criminal..oh I forgot
U though Americans English

Thought Ethiopians Swahili.
And thought Ghaninas Twi

Ooh criminal

I just posted the picture of your sister that is even not as beautiful, so what's your problem?

khiaa:
LMAO Stop being stubborn, she's not a beauty but she is not ugly.

While some of your points are spot on, good for you that you have decided to let Igbos say what they want but you know you have no control over the kind of response they get here just as you can't control what Igbos say. Igbos are here to push falsehood and rewrite history which some of us have tolerated for far too long but not anymore.

This is no longer some innocent mistakes but a total takeover, Igbos have weaponised propaganda like we've never seen before and only the intelligent can see through it. I'm going to shoot lies down whenever I see it.

Corrinthians:
Calm down. I am not an Igbo man. Sincerely, I have said for worse things about them on the forum and of course they were in retaliation over what I perceived as their verbal attack against my own people. Check my timeline for confirmation.

But after a long ban and I came back, i did some soul searching and realise that all that ethnic bashing and hatred would do no one no good. Check am na.

Let's learn to love and accommodate one another please my people. Let love lead the way.

Make una take am easy abeg. We can't continue to hate One another like this. It just isn't right.

She is still better than 99% of the pastors out there.

Hypocrite, if this is "being mocked" what then do you call what Igbos said to Benue people and others about the genocide going in the middle belt? You guys have no hearts I swear!

Corrinthians:
Honestly. These are people in distress and I'm disappointed instead of sympathising with them, they're rather being mocked. We really need to check our behavior on this forum.

Erosion actually happens everywhere but what makes your case different is that yours is negligence, a man-made disaster waiting to happen.

You Igbos have all kinds of problems facing you as a people but you won't mind them, your eyes are on Yoruba. If only you can use the time and energy you exhaust on Yoruba to chart a way out of the erosion that's about to push you back to Cameroon where you came from.

Yoruba don't have erosion threat of this magnitude, just a few sink holes here and there.

You already know you have erosion problem and still not making drainages. You claim to be developing the world yet you can't develop your land.

It becomes my business when you are looking to get my money to fix your problem as you are already screaming for the Fg to come to your rescue when you have a governor.

Keep screaming Yoruba, at least your cry is not going to waste, we are giving you reason to this time.

Fatherofdragons:
Yoro stop been a hypocrite.

Erosion also occur in the South West

Again yoro stop been a hypocrite.

Language prisoner!

We actually have our language all over the Americas, from food to religion and everything in between, all Yoruba's ingenuity.

You know Yoruba is not Igbos mate in all ramifications, but your dishonest nature won't let you acknowledge it.

Nightmareo07:
Language criminal.
Yorubas thought Americans how to speak English too. !!

Haha!

BabaRamota1980:
Iboland is not meant for development. If you break ground to sink concrete for an infrastructure it will deplete the soil integrity and aggravate fault lines in the ground. Then when it rains the fault lines crack open and swallow surface objects.

If we build bridges across Iboland like you have in SW the whole biafraland will by now be in the abyss. You cant do that. The best approach is not to develop Iboland at all.

Any development meant for yanminri should be taken to SS and used to develop SS and Ibos can cross to SS and enjoy their infrastructure there. This is best for humanitarian cause so we do not completely loose alaibo to the abyss.

You are correct, they will have to start fishing people out of the gully soon when a whole street and its occupants are dumped into the red mud. Chineke God! Come and save your children.

Sure!

internationalman:
thanks for the insight

Show me a uglier Yoruba lady married to a worse looking white man.

khiaa:
I have seen less attractive people on Nairaland.

You are a liar, you know everything I said is true but for your dishonest nature makes it difficult for you to agree with me.

The earlier you come to terms with the fact that igbo language is incomplete, weak and you have to burrow words from Yoruba, the better for you to start developing your language.

All those words and over 100 more are Yoruba and you can't change that no matter how hard you tried, there's a reason why it's a Yoruba man by the name Ajayi Crowther that helped put your language together and wrote your first book for you.

Chinua Achebe doesn't belong in the same sentence with Albert Einstein, make that Woke Soyinka, who the world knew to be the real deal.

Bye falot!

Nightmareo07:
lolz ur comment is full of lies from the first word to the last, I dnt even know where to start from to correct u.
I dont know why u Yorubas are so so delusional seriously its funny at times to me.

U have shown that u are ignorant in every standard.,
But If u think foofoo, Ankara, egusi, ogiri ,
Then I will leave u to wallow in ur ignorance.
U are long gone into ignorance no1 can ever pull u out of it!! .

Even Abraham Einstein and Chinua Achebe, and all the intellectuals in the whole world can't pull u out of this ignorance!!
Byeeee

This is an example of covering Igbos leprosy and minding Yoruba's pimples.

Common gutters to channel drainage, the self acclaimed world developers can't construct, all waste water goes back into the ground and now going to sweep them away.

I even saw in another thread how Igbos are literally fishing their people out of erosion water with fishing rods.

Grow more and start making Aloe Vera juice for sale.

Atlanta.is NOT the cheapest state and most people can't afford to stay in Atlanta, it's actually expensive to live in the city of Atlanta or you are a serious city bug like someone I know. All the people saying they are in Atlanta are actually in places like Igando and Imota and then say they are in Ikoyi. There has been influx of people into Georgia lately.because of the weather and music culture of people who think to make it big in music, you have to be in Atlanta. Tyler Perry was one reason too, another reason is, they already have NE which is New York and west which is California, so it makes sense to try the south, the real south where the southern hospitality is better experienced. Georgia is where loaded "bless your heart" is always served with smiles. I still think Georgia is the best state to live in especially in this political climate. Georgia is where you feel safe in restaurants and bars, you can leave your home at 2 or 3 am without fear of being shot at. In fact you will think twice before you get involved in road rage in Georgia as it may be the last one you get involved in, everyone has a gun and I became a believer when a 68 years old woman had her gun on her cocktail table as if it was a pen or eye glasses you just leave around.

internationalman:
Atlanta USA is now the new Torino, Italy for Nigerians
.
Every Nigerian that wants to give birth in the USA usually goes to Atlanta.

If trump talks now....

the population of black in Atlanta is the highest of all the US state.

Is it the cheapest state in the US to afford.

She still hasn't shown her bare baby bump, smells fishy. From celibacy to those without wombs to 70 years old women are now all giving births in Nigeria. What is wrong with going through surrogate or adopting children publicly drama free?
