Those claiming Yorubas are weak or cowards need to watch this video of an Ijaw man narrating how he survived the Lagos crisis.
Today, Yoruba leaders have become more political than patriotic, that’s why there has been no coordinated response to the repeated attacks on Yoruba land.
One key thing he mentioned stood out: he said when the OPC captured him, they told him, “You’re disturbing our brothers in Warri, you’re disturbing our brothers in Ondo.”
That was the Yoruba way, an attack on one was an attack on ALL.
Make sure you play this video around Alimosho Federal Constituency so Yorùbás can see how Ife Salako @ifesalakooffice deliberately set Prof Wole Soyinka (A intellectual Legend from South West) up for online insults and abuse, all because je wanted to please his ob!diot mobs
Make sure he recieves the Gbadebo @GRVlagos treatment.
Igbos Now Want to Claim Yoruba Sacred Opele – Next They Will Say Ifa Was Invented in Enugu
A video is circulating on social media where Igbos are attempting to claim the Opele as their own. This is false and unacceptable.
The Opele is a sacred divination chain used by Yoruba Babalawos in Ifa practice. It is not a decorative object. It is not a universal tool. It is deeply spiritual and specifically Yoruba. The Ifa religion, from which Opele originates, is Yoruba. The language of Ifa is Yoruba. The prayers, the chants, the interpretations, the deities — all Yoruba.
This tradition predates the existence of the Igbo ethnic group as a collective identity. Long before there was any mention of Igbo kingdoms, Yoruba spiritual systems were already functioning. Opele has been used by Yoruba priests for centuries, passed down through generations of Yoruba bloodlines.
Attempting to claim Opele as Igbo is cultural theft. It is an attempt to rewrite history and erase Yoruba identity. We have seen this pattern before. From ofada rice to eko to akara, Igbos have tried to claim Yoruba foods. Now they have moved to our spirituality.
This is a disclaimer and a warning. The Opele is Yoruba. It will remain Yoruba. No amount of online revisionism will change that. Yoruba people must protect their heritage and call out this theft whenever it appears. The Opele is not Igbo. It has never been Igbo. It will never be Igbo.

Kindly face front, this is family business nothing to do with your tribe, okay!
