RE: Hive just got a new user: My Introductory Post to the Blogging Community

Welcome to Hive and STEMsocial. Don't hesitate to ask for for help if needed, and we are looking forward to read your publications. I nevertheless have a question, when you write:

As you must have noticed from my name OLAWALE I’m a Yoruba from the largest city in Africa, Ibadan located in south western part of Nigeria.

Is your name fully specific to Yorobas? Does it mean that anyone having such a name has to be a Yoroba? I apologise in advance for the naive question (I am not Nigerian).

Thank you Lemouth. I appreciate your genuine comment and I will answer your question thus, ''OLAWALE'' is a Yoruba name and such names are borne from the southwestern part of Nigeria. No other tribe can bear such name, apart from Yoruba. Nigeria has over 250 ethnic tribes and Yoruba is one of the major ethnic tribe in Nigeria.

I hope your question is adequately answered.
