Trottle: Kwaran Jebba is NOT in Moro, it is in Ifelodun. Yoruba is what they speak, Nupe migrants there from across the Niger and from Edu speak Nupe or both. The Pako-Jebba (Kwara side) are Yorubas and speak Yoruba. Neither do they have an Etsu like all the other traditional Nupe settleents around. Only Jebba Niger (Mokwa L.G.A ) have a community head that is an Etsu Yankpa in person of Tetengi Mohammed. The Kwaran Jebba have their Oba in like manner. 13 Likes 3 Shares |

Zoolezoo: Update: Jebba is in Moro LGA. Yoruba is not the only language the speak. The perspective I'm coming from is that Jebba is traditionally a Nupe town. Obviously, the world is becoming very diverse, and Jebba is not ab exception. |

Trottle: "All cultural traits of the Igbomina people portray them as Yoruba. Although under colonial rule they were partitioned to the North and South, they still remained either in the Yoruba provinces of the South or in the Southern part of the Northern provinces–contiguous towww.academicjournals.org/article/article1381857172_Ibiloye.pdf Anyways, in a plebiscite , shebi it is the native people that will vote abi? No need to argue over something that the Jebbans themselves will decide. You know Yorubas are not known for "land grabbing" tendencies. We call Jebba the last Yoruba town before Oke Oya (Northern) for a reason, the claim is not baseless brother. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Trottle: This your point defines logic is lokoja and other towns not on that list ? Does that mean nupe owns lokoja ? And lokoja get emir why Jebba no get Even ilorin that was lost has emir 5 Likes |

Markfemi2: We are still running in circles here. Jebba was originally founded as a Nupe settlement and had remained so right unto Colonial times. But in the immediate post-Colonial era, after the White man singularly created a Yoruba race out of thin air... (Abdullahi and Ndace, nd). Excerpt from "the Makers of Nupe" |

Trottle: 1) you have quoted a northern source who still thinks today igbomina is northern and its 2003 2) no one is denying the influence of nupe on Jebba it's a border town settlement 3) until you can show us history of nupe ownership 4) list of nupe kings just how you can trace ilorin emir Your just making noise The white man did not install an oba if not he would have done the same for ilorin and added it back to west They came during a period of war And maintained status quo which is a lost Yoruba town surrrouned by Yoruba cities and added it to northern Nigeria to give them more political powers 4 Likes 1 Share |

Trottle: There are a few reasons why I can't take this list serious. For Example look at Koton Karfe that is quoted to be a Nupe town, eve though everyone knows that the town is Aboriginal to the Egbira Koto and is ruled by an Ohimege. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Trottle: Yoruba race was not created out of "Thin air" There were strong sociolinguistic factors and ethno cultural elements that determined what clans were Yoruba and what clans were not. Okene to Kabba or Akoko land inOndo state is less than 20 minutes on keke, yet the colonial masters did not label the Egbiras as Yoruba. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

Markfemi2: Sir you need to a crash course in history. Send your email, and I would send you a very detailed source. It is a book published in 1942. The forward was written by Lugard himself. It is almost 500 pages. Once you are through with it, I would send other reaources to you. But for now we are done with this argument. If you need additonal material, notify me. |

Viergeachar:They have done so when they proposed for Anioma state with Onitsha as the head quarters which would have expanded Igbo geopolitical tentacles seamlessly into Niger-delta but Delta state was created instead! |

Zoolezoo: Even the name "Yoruba" is a British invention to join various ethnicities with similar cultures and linguistic similarities together. The same applies to the other "Super-tribes". |

Markfemi2: Can you kindly send them. I'm more interested in Mungo Park's book. So far you are not a scholar with international publications that have been popularly cited in reference to this subject matter, the best you can do is counter-argue with your own facts. Thanks.

Trottle: I can say the same about Nupe that is not even a "super tribe" and conclude that the Dibos are not nupe, the Kakandas are not Nupe, Kupas aren't Nupe as well, Gupa, etc. Because all these groups have their different peculiarities. So you see. 6 Likes 1 Share |

The Nupe of Nigeria inhabit the "low basin formed by the valleys of the Niger and Kaduna rivers, between 9ºE 30' & 8ºE 30' north." They occupy an estimated total land area of about 7,000 square miles. With reference to a modern map of Nigeria, Nadel delineates Nupe's southern boundary to be a line drawn from Leaba, on the Niger, eastward to Kataeregi marks the northern boundary of Nupe land, another line drawn eastward from Shari (or Tsaragi) to Abugi and on to the Niger south of Baro ....http://scientiamilitaria.journals.ac.za/pub/article/view/151 That shows you that the Yoruba country on the East side of the Upper Ogun forest reserve axis actually terminates at the banks of the Niger 4 Likes 1 Share |
