Ile Ife is where the Yoruba believe that life began as well as the place where the gods descended to earth.

  1. Oduduwa did not come down through any chain.
    When a foreigner get into a land and he is received and becomes wealthy, he falsify his record as time goes on.
    Oduduwa claim to come from Olodunmare only to deceive the people he met in Ile Ife and made them respect and fear him.
    Travelling from Ile Ife to Odogbolu wouldn't have change the language or moving from Ife to Okitipupa change the language.
    Oduduwa met the Yoruba people in Ile Ife, they receive him, foreigners are usually hard working than natives. E.g., MSc holder are care worker in UK today or taxi driver in Chicago. They wouldn't do that in Lagos or Ibadan. Oduduwa became successful and the stupid oracle that is easily manipulated choose the foreigner when the Yoruba leader died.
    He manipulated history to suit him and his children whom he appointed kings from that point. When lies is repeated for so long, after many generations, people take it to be the truth.
    The original Yorubas do not have records. I believe God created them where everyone is from the beginning. Go to a town call Ido Ani in Ondo state, maybe Ekiti state now, the Ekiti people in the same town do not understand any part of the language of Akoko speaking part of the same town. Is it food that change their language after leaving Ife or it's Orunmila?
    Ijebu is where the creator made them. The idiotic foreigner only send his son to be king over them. His stupid son adopt the people's language and became part of them with time.
    Oduduwa story is a TOTAL fabricated lie. He is the ruler but NEVER the father of Yorubas.
    Yorubas have being in existence before the arrival of Oduduwa.
    Olugbo of Ugbo challenge Ooni the other time that his fore fathers receive Ooni's father when he came to Ile Ife. Ooni keep shut for him.

  2. The ibos do have some Israelite priestly attribute and traditions; sending offenders outside the community as outcastes is an ancient Jewish tradition. As for the Yoruba tribe, there are myths about us migrating from Israel as part of the tribe of Judah and another says it’s from Egypt. And we shouldn’t forget the 3rd narrative of Oduduwa climbing down from the heavens to settle down and create Ile- Ife. I believe there’s a bit of truth in the different stories, it’s a puzzle that needs to the put together. It’s being told from different perspective as the wasn’t any written down and oral information gets distorted over time.

  3. If Oduduwa met some people in the land when they came,who were the people?,those people should be the real Abo- original so u can't say the yoruba's originated from Oduduwa.
