@HabilaIshaq So no, it’s not that only Oyo are Yorùbá. It’s that Oyo dialect became the reference point during colonial standardization. Know the difference.
Know history before you narrow it.
Thank you🤝
@HabilaIshaq The Oyo dialect only became dominant after Samuel Ajayi Crowther translated the Bible using it, which missionaries spread widely. That’s what led to the standardization and the general label “Yorùbá” for all related groups not because only Oyo people were Yorùbá.
@HabilaIshaq If you’re serious about history not just making noise online I’m ready to go for physical research with you.
Know history before you speak and always remember f00ls also grow old.
@HabilaIshaq Lastly! The moment your source baba put Oranmiyan and Larubawa in the same sentence. That’s where I tapped out. it already shows the story is off. Yorùbá history and Arab history are not the same and will never be.
First get your facts right.
@HabilaIshaq I’m not talking from the outside I personally spent a big part of my life in Baruten. From Ilesha to Kosubosu to Chikanda, even routes like Dikidirou down to Gbani I know the terrain well.
Know history before you come online to rewrite it.🤏🏾
@HabilaIshaq Even the Ogbomoso axis you’re referring to, any Baruba man that held power did so because: he was a loyal warrior. he was appointed under Oyo structure not because the land belonged to Baruba from the beginning.
