Reno is Itsekiri. He just calls Yorubas Olukumi as that's what they call them in the Delta area. In Benin Republic, they are called Anago.
In Togo, they are called Ife Ana.
In Sierra Leone/Gambia, they call them Aku people.

Yorubas are not Olukunmi because 'that's what they call them in Delta'.

As a word, Olukunmi has been part of the Yoruba lexicon from time immemorial.

It means My Friend.

In places like Owo, and I think may be Okitipupa, in Ondo State and a few other places, till today, you refer to your friend as Olukunmi. People from these places don't instinctively use 'ore' as those from Oyo, Lagos, Ekiti etc do.

It is no coincidence that the Itshekiri and the Olukumi's migration from Yoruba land originated from or ed through Owo.

Omokery is Urhobo though

Tuale...this one na confirmed Yoruba no doubt

Kudos to my tribe itsekiri. Sadly I grew up at benin

The Olukumi shit can’t work,they are already acculturated by their Igbo neigbours and their land is not contigous to Yoruba land,except Yoruba will move them from their ancestral land and near to Yorubaland

Awesome

But ifeanyi from delta and amaechi from rivers are not from Igbo groups.

I learnt this guys were migrants of 3 families, are they trying to claim the land or what?

Let see how it goes

Itsekiri is not Yoruba Land grabbing is not good oil well stealing is not proper eem . . . eem . . .

Let me sound like some people today 😏

Gustavowhite:
Omokery is Urhobo though

Reno Has No Identity, He is Anywhere Belle Face Man, He Can Come From Iragbeji Today, Gambari Tomorrow And Next He is Ebira Or Ogoja

Some of you need help really, Delta North is Igbo and nobody's denying that. Let anyone identify with whoever they want. Olukumi is actually a pure Yoruba word meaning my close friend.

The same Olukumi people that they want to carve into Anioma state, Lol. We told them Anioma is multi ethnic but they are arguing.

Omokery is Urhobo though

Reno na itsekiri, from royal house

But you can see them here identifying with their ancestral kinsmen and not ibos. The fact that people are your neighbors doesn't mean they have to be ibo, that's why you are coercing SS minorities as ibos.

Olukumi = Ore Mi = Alabaro Mi

I thought the Itsekiris were originally from Benin?
