So benin are Yoruba. ...that is a new one ..pls educate us how the benin Metamorphed and evolved to the almighty Yoruba
As of saraki I rest my case...I will believe what the man said about himself and his Fulani origin rather than you ..so pls forget this saraki issue
Gist us about how benin are now Yoruba ..we are waiting

You av the internet at your disposal,google it.Why is Oba of Benin "Oba" & not "King" of Benin

Johnrake69:

Gowon never issued any order in respect to Awo' s release. The order was issued by Ironsi before he was murdered and mind you Ojukwu who controlled the Eastern region was not bound by that. Ojukwu was in a position to keep Awo in prison till after the civil war.

Young man,you cant change the history of Nigeria.It is in the book of history

You know when a writer is not a kid.

Tanx bro
Many kids on nairaland
Some expressing ignorance
Some regurgitating thrash
Its a general forum though so anyone can comment in their own opinion

NewNigeriaMind:


so who is the Yoruba person that gave his father Olusola

Secondly, Saraki is actually a Yoruba name not a Fulani name.

Thirdly, the man is Fulani-Yoruba, that's just the Ilorin thing from time memorial and I don't see why there should be an argument about this.

To me the guy is Yoruba-Fulani and I guess he uses both heritage when it suits him.

Tanx my brother
You really have a newNigerianMind.
Just like I explained to him and all he kept saying was saraki is a fulani name and bukola is a fulani man that originated from mali. This tonychristopher guy is just so ignorant.

NewNigeriaMind:


You just made a fool of yourself, the Herbert Macaulay example is actually a pointer that you are not a serious person. Your argument holds no water.

Herbert Macaulay himself claims he is from Lagos state and even stated where he from in Lagos. You disregarded who Herbert said he is but you accept who you claim Saraki said he is, can you see the stupidity in your logic.

secondly, you claim Saraki is a Fulani, until we pointed it to you that is is actually a Yoruba name. In your new response you shifted ground that the name was adopted to control the people, so since you know this why did you lie the name saraki is Fulani name when it is not.

Thirdly you said his mother gave him the name Bukola, I asked you to please educate us who gave his father Olusola, no answer.

Lastly, saraki said he came from Mali, I wish to also point it out to you that there is part of Yoruba history that claim Yorubas came from Mali, I don't see how what saraki claim is different from this account.

All I see here is that you are a bigot and you will believe only the part of the story that suits your bigoted mind.

shalom.

Please educate him. This tonychristopher guy is just a clown. I don't know who told him herbert macaulay is from seirra leone. We all know those are names from the slave trade era. Yorubas up till now bare names like savage, dacosta, williams, crowther, wellington, cole, johnson, thomas, craig etc.

I don't know where "tonychristopher" got the logic that the mother named him bukola. Its common knowledge that fathers name their kids in yoruba land and most tribes in Nigeria. So the man called olushola that he refers to as fulani also named his three other kids gbemisola, olaolu and bola. Both Olushola and Saraki are yoruba names. Kwara is just zoned to the north central, it is made up of over 50% yorubas and other tribes like baruten, tapa, fulani etc.

Having said that please let us drop this tribal issue. Bukola saraki is a Nigerian and qualified to be senate president so also his deputy ekeweremadu from the south east. APC leaders should bring down their ego and support them so we can all enjoy the dividends of democracy. Otherwise buhari's government may fail... God bless Nigeria
