You are welcome back from your incurable stupidity and unrefined idiocy which is in your DNA as evident in your progenitors who were not only brutalised, maimed and killed by the same Hausas/Fulanis who are your masters since Independence and continue to be your masters as long as they want. Remember, in real world except video games, you don't form an opposition against your Masters but that is exactly what Yoruba political elites and as a Nation has been doing over the years until we decided in 2015 to show you how to play the game without being ridiculed.

They-Hausas/Fulanis (mere school certificate holders) deputised your well educated progenitors in person of Nnamdi Azikiwe(as clueless as Badluck Jonathan) and of course one of the most useless and worthless VP of his time in Africa if not the whole world; Alex Ekwueme in what I called political show of shame.

The media has clouded your mind. yes they act crazy at times but don't we all do same? the fact that theirs is publicized doesn't make others saint.

I sometimes wish i was a northerner, their level of piety and kindness is way more compared to any other tribe

Yoruba get culture, like if u agree!
.

What is called culture when it applies to Yoruba is what tribalists call "witchcraft" when it applies to some other tribes like Benin.
As if traditional belief is not almost universal in Southern Nigeria.
Even most Juju in Benin like Ogun, Ifa, Sango, Olokun, Ayelala, Obatala are hardly different from SW ones.

1. According to Yoruba mythology, all Yoruba people are descendants of Odua or Oduduwa. And today, there are over fifty individuals who claim kinship as descendants of Odua/Oduduwa.


This very first one is problematic.
Ododuwa cannot possibly be the progenitor of all Yoruba people. As convenient and fraternity-promoting as it might seem, it cannot be true.

Oduduwa lived less than 1000 years ago. Yoruba people have lived in SW 9ja for thousands of years. Whether they called themselves different names depending on local identity or not.

Odua brought a better integration and a slightly more centralised system through his sons that founded many dynasties or replaced existing local ones. Even then, most of those Kingdoms only nominally felt under Ife influence.

I descend from a ruling house that claims Odua as progenitor by the way.
