Think yoruba first

[Unruly @pontrol_777]

They like Yoruba liberals gan!!!😭

The type of Yorubas that will say “abeg I am not part of them o I am different”anytime they are dragging Yoruba people.
Then the ibo bigot will now reply with “yes I know you are different”😂😂

Agbako buruku.

Fly God is talking about Yoruba’s side of history, suddenly he’s tribalistic and dog whistling ronu rhetorics.
Whether y’all like it or not, we will continue to talk about what took place in the past!

You guys talk about Biafra war and your own side of history all the time yet nobody calls you tribalistic or try to shut you up. You’re not the only ones that have a story to tell, so sit tight as we unravel because we’re not keeping quiet because of your cheap gaslighting.

You are heavily relying on Reverend Samuel Johnson’s 1897 manuscript (The History of the Yorubas), but you are reading it completely out of context and treating a 19th-century colonial-era text as an undisputed historical blueprint.
Let’s actually look at the hard historical facts, dates, and linguistic realities to dismantle this "imported" theory:

1. The Timeline and Archaeology Defeat the "Setilu" Myth

You claim Setilu brought this from Nupeland (Tapa) as an Islamic "Arab sand science." But look at the internal contradiction in Johnson’s own text: he records that Setilu was expelled from Nupeland by Muslims because his divination rivalled Islam. This places the Setilu narrative squarely within the era of Islamic expansion along the Niger.
However, carbon-dated archaeological excavations in Ilé-Ifẹ̀ led by Frank Willett and Peter Shinnie prove that Ifẹ̀'s classical urbanism, sacred potsherd pavements, and ritual authority date back to the 9th to 12th centuries CE—long before Islam ever took hold in the Nupe borderlands. Ifá was already the foundational philosophical institution of Ifẹ̀ centuries before any Islamic-influenced figures from the north stepped foot in Yorubaland.

2. The Linguistic Reality: Where are the Arabic Loanwords?

If Ifá were a direct "translation" of Arabic ʿIlm al-Raml, philology dictates it would retain recognizable Arabic loanwords. Look at Swahili or Hausa—they retain clear Arabic roots for Islamic astrological and mathematical terms.
Yet, every single piece of core Ifá terminology is strictly indigenous Niger-Congo / Yoruboid vocabulary with absolutely zero Semitic or Arabic etymological roots.
• Ikin (sacred palm nuts)
• Ọ̀pẹ̀lẹ̀ (the divining chain)
• Ọpọ́n Ifá (the wooden tray)
• Ìyẹ̀ròsùn (baphia nitida dust)
• The titles Awo, Babaláwo, and Àpètèbí.

You cannot claim a system is a "direct translation" when the language lacks a single linguistic footprint of the supposed source culture.

3. A Grid is Not a Civilization: ʿIlm al-Raml vs. Odu Ifá

You keep confusing the mathematical "alphabet" with the actual "literature."
• ʿIlm al-Raml functions through 16 figures mapped across 12 to 16 astrological houses (Dā'irat al-falak). It calculates geometric positions and carries no massive narrative corpus.

• Odu Ifá is an immense, unparalleled oral encyclopedia. Each of the 256 Odu houses hundreds of Ẹsẹ̀ Ifá (poetic verses) dealing with specific West African ecology, indigenous flora, local fauna, chieftaincy rites, and deep pharmacology.

A mechanical translation of Arabic sand dots cannot magically generate thousands of epic poems completely native to the West African forest ecosystem. To say the Yoruba didn't originate Ifá because the 16-figure matrix exists elsewhere is like saying William Shakespeare didn't write English literature because he used the Roman alphabet.

4. The Fallacy of the "One-Way Flow"

Your claim that "the flow of history only goes from North to South" completely ignores global mathematical history.

• The Maya independently discovered the concept of zero without European or Arab contact.
• Ancient China constructed the base-2 binary system of the I Ching (64 hexagrams) independently thousands of years ago.
• The Yoruba developed the Òǹkà system—a complex vigesimal (base-20) mathematical logic built entirely on internal subtraction and multiplication (e.g., Aárùndíngọ́ta / [20 × 3] − 5 = 55).•

A civilization that engineered an everyday spoken language based on abstract, modular algebraic calculations did not need an Arab caravan to teach them how to count to 16 or use base-2 probability.

If you want to counter this, show me a single Arabic etymological root in the names of the 16 primary Odu, or show me where Al-Zanātī's texts contain the botanical, medicinal, and ecological treatises found in Ẹsẹ̀ Ifá. Until then, sit down and study deeper.

Nobody cares! You started a war and lost! You did a coup that slaughtered leaders from the Western and Northern Regions while sparing yours. Your people in the North mocked the Northerners over the killing of the Sarduana. As if that was not enough, your people went on to end the regional system of government by fiat via Agunyi Ironsi's decree and planned to rule over others.
There was a reaction which led to the war you ultimately lost. Ibos are no victims! You are a deeply greedy and coveteous people who started what they couldn't finish. Unfortunately as a people, you haven't really learnt your lesson.

🚨 WHAT IS HAPPENING IN EDE, OSUN STATE?

Reports circulating on WhatsApp show operatives of the Nigeria Police Force's Cybercrime Unit conducting an operation at a student hostel in broad daylight, allegedly intimidating and harassing students.

The incident raises serious questions about police respect for fundamental human rights and the rule of law.
Was there a valid search warrant? Was the operation conducted in accordance with the law?
Fighting cybercrime must never become an excuse for intimidating innocent citizens or violating their constitutional rights.
Even suspected criminals are entitled to due process.

Tiki-taka will ALWAYS look more beautiful than a counter attack or a long ball. 20 passes will always look better than 2 passes on camera. That's just aesthetics.

But beauty does not equal greatness. And greatness does not have to be beautiful.

Football history proves it:

Pep's Barcelona in 2011 was beautiful AND great.
Mourinho's Inter in 2010 was not beautiful at all, but it was great. It killed beautiful Barcelona and won the treble.

Female patients think too highly of themselves. Imagine the sheer ignorance displayed in this video. Do these people understand what it means to do this job as a medical doctor?

Do you think I enjoy having to examine you when you come in with a complaint of foul-smelling vag!nal discharge?

If you present with a breast lump, I have to examine you to help arrive at a diagnosis. I wouldn’t be doing it because of personal desire. Every examination serves a purpose and is guided by medical necessity.

During our medical training, we endured learning and practising on cadavers (preserved human bodies). In our profession, we assess and manage patients irrespective of gender, always maintaining strict professionalism.

If you don’t want a male doctor to attend to you, save us the energy and stress by stating clearly what you prefer as soon as you enter the hospital. That way, you can avoid embarrassing yourself like this.

Shame on you and other women who think this way.
