tosank: Edos are beautiful people. I understand the mainstream Yoruba share a lot with the Edos in history, culture and even language. I wanna ask if Edos truly see themselves as Yorub, and what percentage speak the mother Yoruba tongue, even if it is a second language. Someone should answer the freaking second question |

Alj Hareem, why do you people always like to claim the edos? they are distinct people and you should learn to accept that fact, that they answer youbas names doesn't mean they are Yorubas. Is Goodluck Ebere azikiwe Jonathan an Igbo man? please stop this rubbish, are the igbanke people in Bini also Youruba? |

tosank: How would you feel if someone asked you if Yoruba people see themselves as Nupe? Your question is daft and insulting. 1 Like |

Why do you Nairalanders always have this innate urge to annex other people's ethnic groups just because they're not as 'populous' as you are? I hope, for your sake, this isn't how you all reason in reality. Because if it is, then that is one seriously dangerous way of life 1 Like |

I don't have time for all this rubbish, I am waiting for real edo people not some Imo or anambra okoro man. I would not let Andre and co drag Igbos into this. Again I stated clearly that Yorubas are not claiming Edo people. We do not claim, Yes we share history together and they were part of the first empire. Now it is completly upto them to chose. Again we the yorubas don't have such complexes to be claiming, it is not for us. All we are doing here is sharing history not claiming edos are yoruba. Maybe some of you need to get reading glasses. 5 Likes |

Edos' are the beloved of the Yorubas, i grew up learning to see the Edos as people we share our cultural heritage with. You cannot separate Yorubas and Edos because we came from the same people. So yes Edo is Yoruba and Yoruba is Edo! You dig? |

It makes no sense that a thread which is a repeat of Obiagu's is on the front page when Obiagu's thread was itself on the front page. @ the original poster, if everyone said that the Edo were in fact Yoruba and that 1000% of them saw themselves as Yoruba, what difference would it make? Why do you even care? |

Anthony Enahoro's middle name was Eromosele. I don't know why somebody (alj harem) would just pick a random Yoruba name and claim it was his middle name. |
