gregyboy: I saw how you were schooling the transgender, of course they had to pull the plug on the thread. One of the lies of the transgender was that the book below written by the author below was written in 1889.

Truthbeatslies:You are foolish fatuous liar. No wonder you’re bald. ![]() I never said Adam Knobler’s book was published in 1889. Even though gregyboy too is a liar, he won’t have the heart to tell this kind of blatant lie. I kind of feel fulfilled when I saw your lie. It convinced me that you know deep down that Benin needs lies to NOT appear inferior. I made it repeatedly clear that Adam Knobler’s book was published in 2016. At no point did I mention that Adam Knobler’s book was published in 1889. Bald headed liar. ![]() 4 Likes |

Truthbeatslies:And I keep remembering to debunk your fake videos with classical documents. See below: (1) Regarding your bitter lies about the trans-Atlantic slave trade, the following piece-by-piece devastating refutation: (A) Contrary to your ignorance, captives weren’t taken from “all across Africa” as you imagined. Rather, captives were taken from Central Africa and West Africa — including people from Benin kingdom whom the Nupe, the Ibadan, Ogedengbe, etc. raided. (B) Contrary to your ignorance, the Yoruba people have long been known by the name Yoruba (and they’ve been living in their present homeland) for centuries prior to the period when ex-captives began to be returned to Africa. We know this because the process of returning ex-captives back ‘home’ to West Africa didn’t begin until circa the late-1700s. Whereas, there are manuscripts written in the early-1600s which list Yorubas (by their name Yoruba) among some of the ethnic groups of our region of West Africa. This manuscript which was written by Ahmed Baba in 1615 is attached below. The name Yoruba is shown in red highlight (among the other ethnic groups) as can be seen in the original manuscript as well as in the translation embedded below respectively: www.nairaland.com/attachments/12934148_5117c6d550154217817d7c66b5fa0fe6_jpeg_jpeg2a73d5172c14cf7a7da91ff200688e3e www.nairaland.com/attachments/12934147_3336ed29985b499e82c4e140b455b9fa_jpeg_jpeg62ecafabb59c692d4ba471597fdf16bb This translation was prepared by John Hunwick and Fatima Harrak for The Institute of African Studies Rabat, Morocco Oh, I should add that we know that this manuscript was written by Ahmad Baba in the year 1615 because he himself penned his date as highlighted (in the attached verso) below: www.nairaland.com/attachments/13082305_6e49d8d129844a578af9272699e1586a_jpeg_jpeg2d5891d724a6428e2c0f4e6898bd60cc The highlight here literally shows the wording “(the year) one thousand and twenty four (of the Hijrah)”. When converted from this Hijri “AH” calendar into our Gregorian “AD” calendar; the year 1024 AH falls into the year 1615 AD The formula “D = 0.9692*H + 622” proves practically useful for this conversion. In sum, your falsehood that returned-slaves (from all across Africa) are what became known as Yorubas is nothing but a but-hurt lie from a depressed bald-head. (C) These ex-captives who were of West-African origin and Central African origin were repatriated directly to Sierra-Leone and Liberia. Some began a new life there, while some decided to go back to their homeland from which they were taken ab-initio. Nobody was repatriated to south-West Nigeria, bald-head. A number of Yorubas among the returnees chose to return back to Yorubaland — just as many others who returned to their respective original homeland. (2) The only ethnic-group whom I know of who couldn’t fight their way to freedom and be returned back to Africa are ……. [take a guess]. They couldn’t think of returning until about 400 years later when some of their descendants decided to tap into the science of Genetics as a guide to finding their way back home. ~ See video. below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxDve0rwQbM The two attachments below also shows some earlier corroborative confessions made available to Dr. R.

Truthbeatslies: The one she sited as cyril punch in benin.. I guess?? That lady has disgraced and exposed yoruba lies to the entire Nigeria and nairaland by her actions and she thinks she is helping in her wide imagination Her actions will continue to hunt yorubas unity in the future if her obsession wasnt this deep we wouldn't have scratched the surface of benin prehistory till we even die... But her obsession led to a root deep research for our benin history we never knew she has forced me to read so many articles i wouldn't have gone to read on my own and hate the facts it kills my precious time but i cant help.. Her lies shouldn't be left unattended to She has successfully use her own hand to end the benin-ife myth on Nairaland that usually comes up daily she officially ended it with her madness She chased monikers like redbinsmith, fulamannn and co from culture thread, this were people known to be frequent back then on culture thread.... She drove them out with her obsession over great benin... She also made me famous and made herself infamous too, i have seen my comment pasted on some blogs outside nairaland benins on Nairaland now are taking a new dimension on their prehistory with Yorubas.... Again she forgets she will be the villain against truth in the nearest future and her over obsession in the face of truth would be worthy to study 1 Like 1 Share |

macof: Here you go again with the "naked emperor" type of scam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9mQoJU-6I0 You don't get to dictate the behaviour or thinking of the educated class, to which you do not belong by the way, you only pretend to belong, I see clearly through your different frauds. Also, nobody says those who call themselves yoruba today don't have ancestors. That would be silly, your deliberate lack of comprehension is legendary. What is being proven is that those who call themselves yoruba today are a mixture of several unrelated peoples: dahomians, oyo, brazilian slaves and some other peoples. Given the number of slaves who were dumped on our shores by the europeans, it is fair to say all yoruba descend from slaves. Perhaps there is a small percentage which doesn't. |

I grant you that you are a much better speller of english words than I am. But the problem is that except english spelling skills, your brain is empty. If we were to have a debate on english spelling, I would gladly throw a white flag towards you. But that is not what we are doing here.
