Your grand mum is probably the one on the right.

afonjaheadhunt:
is that all you have to say to this very revealing and hurtful truth

YonkijiSappo:


Bleeeh.... boring
Real history is out there for those who want to explore. No be for yeye nairaland threads.
And of course, Ibadan isn't even that old in Yoruba history, who does not know that... duurh

afonjaheadhunt:
How will the new generation learn history when it has been removed from our school curriculum and calendars. The only history the see today is the falsehood now being promoted by the yoruba media as history, so it is left for historians like me and students of history to give clear undiluted accounts of truth behind Nigeria's history.

Secondly at least we now agree on something which is that Ibadan is not a old city and that it is only as old as the amalgamation of Nigeria and the first story building in Ibadan.

Ipob youths come and see another confession from an Afonja who now agrees that Ibadan is a modern day settlement with brown roofs that have not been changed for 100 years or renovated.

Thank you for your Sincerity we need more afonjas like you and thugcheetah

Dude stop wasting valuable time in displaying your hate against Yoruba. There has been Yoruba thousands of years before you were born, Yoruba sons and daughters are doing spectacularly well everywhere in the world today, Yoruba is setting pace for other tribes to follow in Nigeria, and there will be Yoruba thousands of years after you have gone.

Channel your energy towards something that will benefit you and people around you.

To answer your question, there are architectural structures of ancient Yoruba empires and cities such as Ile Ife, Ijebu and Oyo Ile

OP, I will like to ask what exactly you are doing to get Nnamdi Kanu out from the detention he is because I know of prominent Yoruba persons making moves in words and action, the likes of FFK and Fayose.

Yet you come online, conspisciously hiding behind the front of a laptop to spew chiit about Yorubas as if they are the problems to your existence.

The Hausa/Fulanis who want to die in power at all cost and play divide and rule are not your problems.

AkinPhysicist:
OP - where is your proof that anywhere in alaigbo was as civilized as Ibadan before the advent of the British?

Coolitempq:
do not derail this thread that is not the point of this thread you can create another thread for that I am sure the Op will oblige you there

Sad - I have to school another mumu: Read the post again, mumu. This time focus on paragraphs 4 and 5. Olodo, your education is a waste.

Coolitempq:
Wow, this thread have achieved the aim for which it was created.

1. To prove that Ibadan is not as old as being portrayed by Yoruba revisionist.
2. To prove that Yorubas lived in farms, bushes, trees, under rocks and mud houses before the coming of the white man.
3. To prove that Yorubas never set the pace of development in Nigeria, even after having early contacts with the whites.
4. To prove that Yorubas have long been overtaken in terms of development, Education, civilization, industrialization etc.
All this aims have been achieved on this thread with even Yorubas supporting my claims and providing the needed evidence.

Wow interesting, Mods you can now move this thread to front page please.

You keep jumping from one point to another like a chicken that has its neck cut off

You challenged Yorubas to provide evidence of where we were living before white people came. I provided you with an evidence that even states that Yorubas are the most talented and intelligent of all tribes in Nigeria but just like I expected, you started rambling about something else. Before I slap you with evidences to disprove what you are using your second mouth to say, I like like to point out that I didn't know you have a 2nd moniker. You must be spending a lot of man hours masturbating and fantasizing to Yoruba rich heritage, history, culture and achievements. In honesty, tell me how many monikers you have on Nairaland.

Now to disprove your wrong assertions



No Yoruba ever told you Ibadan is very old. It is all what is playing in you head. Every Yoruba historian knows Ibadan was founded by Lagelu in early 1800s. It was used as a war camp by warriors from Old Oyo, Ife and Ijebu. Ibadan name was derived from Eba odan which means it was surrounded by hills just like Rome. By the time the white explored the Yoruba hinterland in the mid 1800s, Ibadan has transformed into a metropolis so much so that it was the most populous city in Nigeria at that time.



I can't help but laugh at this your ignorant comment. To answer this your lie, I will quote a statement from Leo Frobenius about Ile Ife. I'm 100% sure you don't know who Leo was. Just fyi, Leo Frobenius was an ethnologist and archaeologist and a major figure in German ethnography. After he discovered the level of civilization and development in Ile ife he couldn't believe there could be a region in sub saharan Africa with such heritage, artistry and organization that he called Ile Ife the lost Atlantis. Below is an excerpt from Leo findings

A hundred years ago when German explorer Leo Frobenius visited West Africa and came across some sculpted bronze heads and terracotta figures, he was sure he had discovered remains of the mythical lost city of Atlantis.
He refused to believe that the sophisticated and ornately carved bronze sculptures were made in Africa.
In his book, Voice of Africa, Frobenius wrote: "Before us stood a head of marvellous beauty, wonderfully cast in antique bronze, true to the life, incrusted with a patina of glorious dark green. This was, in very deed, the Olokun, Atlantic Africa's Poseidon."
"I was moved to silent melancholy at the thought that this assembly of degenerate and feeble-minded posterity should be the legitimate guardians of so much loveliness," he added.
Frobenius was referring to the people who lived in the Kingdom of Ife and whose artists, in fact, created the sculptures over the course of some four centuries. Leading art experts believe they are among the most aesthetically striking and technically sophisticated in the world.
The Ife kingdom was believed to have flourished from the 12th to the 15th centuries in the lush forests of the lower Niger in West Africa in what is today the south western region of Nigeria.

This is just another expression of bile and hatred from you. You said Yorubas never set the pace of development in Nigeria but you couldn't provide an evidence to show the other tribe that did. Just to let you know, when it comes to setting pace for almost all fields and facet of life, Yoruba set the pace, still setting the pace and continue setting the pace. Is it in Medical field, Literature, Music, Architecture, Engineering, Education, philosophy, Religion etc. Just name the field and see a Yoruba man or woman being the first person or one of the first set of people to have achieved the milestone



Just another bile filled comment from an hater. At this point, I'm not even surprised at all. You say Yoruba has been overtaken in terms of development, education and civilization. Please show everyone with evidence that there is a tribe that is doing better than Yoruba to back up your wrong assertion. See the mistake most of you Yoruba haters do is that you see Agberos and Omo onile and assume that Yoruba youth are not different from others, but the fact remains that for every Agbero you see, there are more than 5 Yoruba young men or women living in developed countries like US, Canada, UK, Australia etc. As a matter of fact, and this is not exaggeration, If you go to these developed countries, out of 10 Nigerians you see, 6 are Yorubas, the remaining 4 are other tribes. Guess what they are doing? Working professionally, studying for post graduate, owning a business etc. So I'm wondering where you got your myopic assertion that Yoruba has been overtaken in those areas. When it comes Industrialization, apart from Lagos which is a Yoruba state, the 2nd most industrialized state in Nigeria by a wide margin to the 3rd is Ogun state. If you wanna know I will provide you with evidences to back it up.

Like I said earlier, stop wasting your time in giving yourself headache about Yoruba heritage, history, achievements and success. There is absolute nothing you can do about it.
