KwaraRat: Please stop this. The Olukumi people are Igbos of the Niger Delta. Stop cursing your fellow Igbos. In fact, stop tribalism. The South needs to unite, not all this tribalistic nonsense. 2 Likes |

Thetruthsayer10:Olukumi has their present homeland deep in Delta part of Igbo Land. Name any other place in Africa where it is spoken indigenously apart from Anaocha Local Government in the Igbo part of Delta State. The other people that speak it are the descendants of the Olucumis that were taken to America during the Transatlantic Slave Trade. Olucumi is an ancient Igbo Language. 1 Like |

Thetruthsayer10: This is just wrong . There is no evidence that an person GAVE the name . That any person RECORDED the name allegedly is not the same as giving the name. The name Yoruba was generally applied to Oyo people and or close Northern Yoruba groups it did not Apply to Egba,Ijebu Ekiti etc. The evidence for this is in the Oriki of these groups and this is why we advocate teaching Yoruba to young people. A lot of these orikis are on YouTube study them. Whether the word Yoruba was applied to Oyo people by Ijebus,Ekitis Egbas or even Edo is debatable and would probably never be unravelled but the Oyo people exclusively used to be known as Yoruba and I have met in my lifetime old people (now deceased) refer to Abaja as Ila Yoruba(Oyo tribal marks) It is only after colonizatiion and Nigeria that everyone came to be known as Yoruba.In Benin for long they were know as Nago or Anago. It is Nigeria that forced this Yoruba identity on everyone but historically it was the Oyos and arguably this name was applied to them by any one of their neighbours whether from the Oduduwa group or not no one knows 7 Likes 3 Shares |

0monnak0da:that’s what I meant it was recorded by the Songhai scholar Ahmed baba and it’s typically associated with him as the giver of the name but i also doubt he gave it too coz my gf is from porto novo Benin and she told me that her own clan are know as just Yoruba nothing more like egba or ijebu just Yoruba so u could be very right but wat am certain is it’s not given by Hausa or Fulani and not every Yoruba is known as Nago too there are also more clan. Listen to zeynab song a Yoruba singer from Benin republic she refers collectively as omo Yoruba so it’s wrong to also say Nigeria forced it on us to a certain extent we accepted it coz we are one and the same people 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Thetruthsayer10: The more common description in Benin used to be Nago or Anago or Ana probably it has changed with the influence of Nigeria. These terms were used to describe now Yoruba peoples by the Spanish and Portuguese in their earlier records centuries ago It is important to emphasize the difference between language and identity Austrians ,Swiss,Italy Lichtenstein and Luxembourg is home to Deutsch speakers but they do not identify as German just as not all speakers of Arabic are not Arabs Generally the Yoruba language was known as Anago 3 Likes 2 Shares |
