NOTE: THE AKOKO EDOS IN EDO AND THE ONES YOU FIND IN YORUBALAND WHICH ARE ALSO EDIOD ARE TWO VERY DIFFERENT TRIBES!! Igbo orunmila was ruled by the Benins hence the title of the ruler Ogienerimo 3 Likes 3 Shares

How exactly were they cursed? Did it manifest in the people? Akoko Edo people complain of marginalization and under development, could that be the effect of the curse? Someone she'd more light pls 3 Likes 1 Share |

In the entire history of Ijebu Ode right from the time of Obanta who founded the town, up till now, there has never been any Oba (Awujale) who went by the name Ogiebo. Besides, I doubt there was anytime in history Ijebu Ode was ever known as Igbo Orunmila. Itegboje is probably referring to another town completely. 111 Likes 7 Shares |

Post about Interesting festivals joor. Like the Orumaval of Bekuma and Lampese that is very similar to the Oro festival that Yorubas celebrate in neighboring communities https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQ6pwl8o1ho dominique: Yes it is true. They are the most Marginalised section of Edo state, the Owans come a distant second. Both groups are supressed and starved of development. They are seen as Yorubas in Edo state and to be honest a large portion of their ancestry is from Yorubaland. Hence, they are delibrately made to play second fiddle to the Etsakos (Auchi side) in Edo state. The best option for them will be to agitate for their re-inclusion into the South West where they will be welcome with open arms, together with the rest of their Akoko brothers already there. Imagine Akoko Edo are still managing one local government when their brothers in Ondo already have 4 whole local governments to themselves. 77 Likes 4 Shares |

Uneme towns are still blacksmiths till today, although most of the younger ones have migrated to big cities and no longer engage. For those who care to watch, here is a short documentary on Ekpedo, the chief Uneme town as narrated by Oba J.A Obabori. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNHSPPgguL4 14 Likes |

KingOvoramwen1: I read the article to see exactly what became of them after they were cursed and if there were any differences after the curse was revoked. My friend from Akoko complains that they're the least favoured in the state in terms of appointments and infrastructure. 1 Like |

![]() ![]() ![]() Whatever becomes too complex for a common man, he blames on "spirits". There is no such thing as cursed or blessed people but there are people who make effort to be successful and became successful and there are those who don't, then we say life happened. 11 Likes |
