Sunshineg5:According to Jackson Omasanjuwa Ireyefoju and Florence Ejuogharanmakelesan Ireyefoju in their seminal work "Ife Oracle in Itsekiri Social System of Nigeria," Itsekiri people came from Egypt after the battle of Actium in 31 B.C. The Mahim arrived and settled in the present Warri Kingdom in about 28 B.C in Gborodo, Ureju and Ode Itsekiri. The leaders of the teams were Iset, Iweret and Ipi. This part of Itsekiri history is one that cannot be kicked aside as there are more similarity in Itsekiri language and custom with those of the ancient Egyptians than any other civilization in the world.

WeneDiali:I'm from Delta state. Ogbein-Ama of Bomadi LGA. It's so fascinating that I have learnt a lot from you and other factual persons in this thread. the Deputy Governor of Ondo State is from Kiriobo and the word "Kiribo" in my native Ijaw term means Farm. Also, from few research, I can affirm the assertions to be true. 1 Like |

Sammy07:if you have better term to acknowledge the Ijaws in Ese-Ode, Arogbo e.t.c other than your seemingly desperate "Yorubanized" term, I could answer the questions. |
Re: Video: Sorry State Of The A Ijaw Community In Lagos by Sammy07: 4:48pm On May 24, 2020 |
Afriifa: They are speaking Yoruba Tho some of them speaks both Yoruba and ijaw Their names are Yoruba names, some of them still have Ijaws names. Their dressing and culture are now Yoruba tho some of them retain their cultures. What else could they be if not Yorubanized Ijaws? ![]() They're not even closer to water as Ilajes, they're found mostly in Ese Odo local government. 1 Like |

Afriifa: Lol You just shoot yourself ![]() Cc: Sunshineg5 You're not from Ondo state at all. 1. It's spelt igbekebo not gbekedo. 2. It's one of the biggest town in Ese Odo local government 3. Their Oba is Yoruba and they speak Yoruba. 4. I've lived there b4 ![]() Yes, Arogbo is "Formerly an Ijaw town", in Ese Odo LG, they have been Yorubanized now. Cos they speak the language and have their names. If you check above, I initially state that there are still some communities that are Pure Ijaws and don't speak Yoruba and they have Ijaws as their king. I told you earlier that Ijaws are migrants / settlers in Ondo. They cannot secced with their brothers in Niger delta cos they are surrounded by Yoruba towns and communities so they can't carved them out. Okay? Bye bye. ![]() 3 Likes 1 Share |

Sammy07:despite your rumblings and forcely classifying them as yorubas, the undeniable facts still remains that they are Ijaw and that can never change even with your yorubanized mission. about names and dressing, oga don't deceive yourself. if you're closer to the Ijaws, you would know that Ijaws are not tribalistic with name-given. even in Nigeria, we are the only tribe with most foreign names. They can give any name that pleases them, it has nothing to do with being converted or that. in Rivers, we have Ijaws bearing Igboic names. that does not mean dey av been igbonized. see there is one prominent man called Barister Ajuwa in Ondo state, He's seemingly bearing a Yoruba name, but he speaks Ijaw eloquently than most ijaws in Delta state. Karinto is an Ijaw High life Musician from Ondo state, I have heard so many of his songs, and I can tell you, nothing is missing as Ijaw in them. oh as for the names, I forgot, even my Surname 'Afrifa' is not an Ijaw name but a Ghanaian name. I'm bearing it in all my documents. does that make me a ghanian? about the dressings, ask Tacha who is Ijaw but dresses like Ibo. ooh too far, ask Aunty Bisola who bears Yoruba name but Ijaw. 1 Like 1 Share |
