    It is an established fact that the Ewes settled in Nigeria before various groups migrate to wherever they're found today. So if you say Ewes are Nigerians, I don't think it's wrong

      Remember that there was no Nigeria back in those days. 😮

    Yes, the ewes “eves” settled in ile ife, and Oyo Nigeria. The Ga -adangbes “guin” settled in Ile ife and edo state: Benin city Nigeria. That’s why our language sounds familiar. Yoruba sounds like a mother language to all. Thanks for this video. One day we will unite once again. “Togo, Benin, Ghana, Nigeria”.

    Thank you for this. 🎉 In Nigeria 🇳🇬 there are several Eʋe groups. Not only at Ketu, and Gbadagri. The Aja are Eʋes, the Gun are also Eʋes. There are many within Rep of Benin and Togo as well.

    Yes the Ewes settled in ILe IFE in Nigeria. The migration of Ewes were made through so many places like Egypt, Israel, Iraq, Sudan, Nigeria and Togo .

    The Ewe’s are descendants of Ga’s….We split due to some traveling issues…When we came from Nigeria(Ga’s)we settled in Ho the Volta Region of Ghana but left Ho to settle in Accra but some didn’t wanted to travel anymore so they settled finally in Ho…we took the Ga language from the Yoruba people of Nigeria and changed it to Ga and Ga to Ewe…so after we split those at Ho changed the Ga language to Ewe but sounded almost same to Ga…This is also why most Ga’s and Ewe marry and have similarities in their Language…We harvest maize this is why we have food similarities too,Kenkey from maize and Banku from maize too…When we settled in Ho our main objective was to have farm lands and water resources…

    I've even heard some Nigerian last names that are Eʋe/Aŋlɔ in Ghana. I watched a Netflix story on Dr. Adadevoh. Her middle name is Ameyo: the first thing that came to my mind was she must be a Saturday-born. My grandmother's middle name is Afiyo (for a Friday-born).

      Dr. Adadevoh is a Ghanaian Ewe living in Nigeria. Her father lived in Nigeria and gave birth to them there.

    It's IE EFE and Oyo, then one other thing is Yoroaba means they have laid their mate , and we Ewe almost all our names are given based on events and ocerances, my take it maybe that the word Yuroba might the entire empire might have that we have settled here the Yuroba. Because in Ewe Oyo mean they or we have been called. Its really interesting.

    Ewe is from Nigeria originally,other countries like ghana and Togo actually corrupt the pronounciation of these words due to migration from Nigeria.Benin king were called Ewedo,another one was called Eweka.A popular roads in both benin city and onitsha is called Eweka road in benin city and upper eweka road in onitsha.Ewe is definitely Nigerian.

      @@tonynaye8127 What are you saying,there was Oba eweka or lweka and there is lweka road in benin and upper lweka in onitsha.Even the Nigeria Lady that is head of world trade organization is called lweala,or Eweala.Same word but spelt with the letter I instead of E.

      There are geographical names within Nigeria which are Eʋe names here are some and their meanings :
      Ketu (Within the soil)
      Keta (head/peak of the soil)
      Sokoto (Mountains of Soko) there are 88 mountains in this area.

      Wo is correct. Some Dialectical variations require the E. But the formal pronunciation and spelling is Wo.
