This Alaafin has not started on a good note. Yorubas are not known to do attache with anyone, let the Itshekiris identify as Yorubas, not forcing it on them

Fulanis are Yorubas too!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Fulanis are what Igbos wish to be. Just that they lack opportunity.

Itsekiris are shameless though. You have suffered marginalization but yet got the Guber seat when it was zoned to Delta South despite being the least in population in the district. Na people when not know Delta State go dey listen to una. Check the nominal roll of the Delta State civil service and tell me the tribe that dominates it.

You should have said this when Biafrans overran the Midwest during the war.

Go and ask about those who drove the Biafrans out of your land.
No where in this thread or topic was Biafra mentioned, but trust a Yoruba slimy worm to somehow drag Biafra/Igbos into a completely unrelated conversation. And for the records, the forces that pushed back Biafrans from the Midwest (after Victor Banjo had already sabotaged the Biafran offensive and momentum) were mostly from the Middle belt region and parts of the Midwest especially the Edo/Delta axis...yaribas in their usual main character syndrome complex always love to ascribe all the accolades of victory to themselves when historical facts have debunked those egocentric and duplicitous lies.

As you can see, the royalty came all the way to Oyo affirming their ancestry. It's not the other way round whereby a so-called majority tribe is crying and begging for validation, even to the point of drawing the minorities into a map in their pipedream.

The so called majority group u mentioned had fought a just war that could have saved Nigeria of all the headaches she facing today. All she wanted to was to leave Nigeria which would have helped the black race to fix many problems because Yorubas, Hausas, etc would have had their own nation and shine.
After losing the war, with the stigma attached to losing a war, losing all u had to the state, they saw u as second class citizen and denied u political positions, it was normal for those outside their main region of South east to also deny them to be safe else, they will suffer serious political isolation.
Well, decades later, many have started accepting the truth and itting their true ancestry. A very good example is the Igbanke people in Edo. It is a matter of time as my generation is well read, we will align better than our fathers generation that were timid and never asked questions.

The same Itshekiri people have been left to their fate by their so called bigger Yoruba cousins in the current delineation crisis they are facing with the Ijaws and Urhobos...Ijaws and Urhobos have been bullying them for years now and Tinubu and his kinsmen have failed to protect their interest.

Nonsense!

That was how they tried to include my people as Yorubas in the past. Thank God for our historians who debunked that baseless fairy tale. Itshekiri is Itshekiri, and Yoruba is Yoruba.

Every tribe, irrespective of size, has the right to exist without being coerced to accept another tribe.
UK is not Edo.

Nigeria would have been far better off, divided along ethnic lines.
Their is far more affinity and oneness among Ethnicity than Nationality.

In an African village I've seen people from different households fighting each other to death in an unending war. We saw several nations living in peace despite having different nationalities and ethnicity.

This how they have been forcing Yoruba on other tribes in south west.


Many times Aworis tribe, the real owners of Lagos have said they are not Yorubas,yet Yorubas Keep claiming Lagos to the level that none of them identify with their five Yoruba states again.



Everyone from five Yoruba states is now a lagosian grin grin

quilty conscience is killing you. You termed it a just war that could have solved all problems of today. How many wars in Africa has solved problems. If anything, countries that have fought wars havent healed a bit.

When Adaka Boro wanted to leave, why did Ojuku and Igbos stop them and even tried them for treason?

Others cannot leave but you can leave. See bare-faced akpu hypocrisy.

Itsekiri is a sub-group of the Yoruba.

Google the meaning of sub-group or check out screenshot below. I am sure you can see itsekiri on the list.
