That Anambla guy be looking for trouble, that's what they do on Twitter, when we return it back, they start crying Ronu up and down. Look how Lord of Warri gave him a dressing down. Make I go follow that on Twitter.

How does this have anything to do with Itsekiris being proud to be Yoruba. You can clearly see the post is talking about a shared history, is that Yoruba to you? And do you often see Itsekiris identifying themselves as Yoruba?

So tell me what is it about some Yorubas that makes them have this seeming need to claim other tribes as their own? Will you lose something if Itsekiri are a different tribe from you as they are? Saying Itsekiri "originated" from the same group as present day Yorubas and therefore that makes them the "same" ethnicity or that because they have similar language they are then one ethnicity is incorrect. Itsekiris have a different culture than the general Yoruba ethnicity.

Itsekiri as its mostly called by its people in quote are a lost tribe more like a lost poppy, they have really tried to convince the people as to where they belong, but one thing I know about these tribe is that, they are very hostile.

That is owned by a Yoruba,it’s a Yoruba propaganda page

If you want to know about the people of itshekiri,go to the streets of Warri and not a random on X claiming to belong to the Olu of Warri

Did the Anambra boy lie? Imo and Abia are oil-producing states and they are also in the Niger Delta; but If an Ìgbò man writes that they will use the oil of the Niger Delta to develop Igboland, will people not drag him on social media?

Is that why they eat ukodo, starch and gbafilo-spiced pepper soup? What’s Yoruba about that?
