Default HAVE U NOTICED

THE SIMILARITIES BETWEEN THE IBO AND YORUBA LANGUAGES.

Here are just a few

IBO YORUBA
Dokuta Okuta Stone
Imri Omi Water
Okuko Akuko Cock

I think instaed instead of fighting each other ...we should really start researching on things that can bind us together as one entity ... It is obvious that the people of southern Nigeria Have a common origin ...I would just like to urge our historians to engage in more research and tell us how weare linked
