I listened and learnt from the source not your so called distorted write up. Thanks. 4 Likes |

absoluteSuccess:you have time to answer nigerman1 don't you see pain and hatred in all his respond to the topic.Somebody said they migrated from owo in ondo state he was still arguing blindly,changing what he red to his own interest.I can't blame him,his people can't trace their origin.How they are speaking ibo is not traceable.His interest is how yorubas migrated from Benin. But his hatred could not allow him to ask the total population of yorubas in Benin compared to the entire yoruba people in only in the south west not to talk of other extension.The only culture they have is how to make money from event like wedding. Also he should tell us how is tribe is from jews. 3 Likes |

OneNaira6: ![]() ![]() ![]() When yoruba slaves were distributed. The yoruba used olukumi to recognise each other.. I know because in Brazil, Cuba and other places where yoruba slaves settled they call themselves "Lucumi"... You can google it... Olukumi is 100% yoruba. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 6 Likes |

GodMode: Did you even read my post. Their ancestry is Yoruba, noone denied that including MY own post in which you replied. The common day Olukumi on the other hand DOES NOT see themselves as yoruba. I'm from aniochland. I've grew up around Olukumis and I've seen more than enough of their ppl in my own ppl terrority. They neither deny their origin but they neither see themselves as yoruba. A perfect example of an olukumi is Zeal from style plus. He's from there and throughput the time he was famous, how many times did he call himself yoruba? Did he or did he not maintain he was delta igbo. Please don't waste my time about the territory I come from. Oh btw: another famous olukumi is Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu...again, how many times was he ever recorded or seen himself as yoruba. Let make this as simple as u can. There is no part in Aniocha land Yoruba can claim. 6 Likes |

[quote author=ControlX post=33132809]Unique cultures like the Olukumis develop through a mixture of several similar cultures and show to us that we have the capacity to unite with each other and make progress with one another. But the Tribal bigots just wont get this. Igbo's, Edo's, Yoruba's and many southern tribes share a lot of similarities which indicate that we have been interacting with one another before the tragedy of colonialism. Take a look at these linguistic examples; Bag: Igbo-Akpati, Yoruba-Apoti, Mouth: Igbo-Onu, Yoruba-Enu, Ear: Igbo-Nti, Yoruba-Eti. These are just a few of our many similarities which no one can really explain how they came about. So why don't we forget our differences and celebrate our similarities. Zik once told Sarduana ; Let us forget our differences. "No!" Sarduana retorted, "Let us understand our differences". 55 years has passed on and we are yet to understand those differences of ours. Zik was right! Let us forget our differences and build on our similarities. That is the way forward for Nigeria![/quote okuko(fowl) in igbo, akuko(fowl) in yoruba. Gini(what in igbo) kini (what in yoruba) i believe we are one. |

Radoillo: Some delta ppl, not all, sometimes associate themselves with their maternal side as oppose to paternal especially if they feel more connected to their maternal side. Example would be be my greatgrand ma whose tehnically urhobo but grew up associating her self as an igbo due to her mother was from Asaba. The same situation with Don jazzy whose also technically urhobo due to his father being from warri at least according to him and his mom is igbo from imo but he deem himself as igbo rather than his biological father's origin. Some are like that. I can't speak for Nzeogwu. Maybe his family was the same way, idk, all I know is I grew up knowing his father was Ugbodu and mom Okpanam 1 Like 3 Shares |
