Well, it may be a good try but I definitely observed some misrepresentation and errors. Anyway, let me concentrate on the one way concern me. There is nothing like Sasaru-Enwa. Enwan in Akoko-Edo speaks Ehma some call it Emai . Proudly ENWAN

the British invasion of the benin empire in 1897 led to the destruction of the edo empire and their civilisation.
This is too recent to have caused the devastation he pointed out. Don't you think?

it's obvious that if there's anyone who should stop drinking it has to be you. What you just said should be moved to the joke section and see the replies you'll get. Who dash Urhobos 5th largest in Nigeria? Binis in Nigeria and in diaspora if calculated are over 7 million. Are Urhobos more than the Ijaws or even the ikwerres in total population? Are Urhobos more than the Tiv people of Benue? Don't allow tribal sentiment becloud your sense of reasoning. Urhobos that are not more than 2 million in total population are the people you want to compare with the Binis whose empire stretched to lagos and as far as benin republic. Urhobos have always been slaves to the binis and they'll continue to remain slaves.

No u gat it wrong.... we always give edo there maximum respect, cous we migrated from there, bt wen it comes to population we. re more than 5million, Google is ur frnd, cous of our polygamous nature.

we still av Urhobo in Bayelsa , our land is bigger than d Edo land in Edo state,. no doubt we re larger than u guys and popular too

What's this one saying?
Abeg, shift one side and stop giving yourself hope.

Igbo's are not claiming any Delta/Edo state, don't mind that dude dumb comment.
Only Anioma in Delta state and Ikwerre in Rivers state that we acknowledge as Igbo.

Well, Edo is more closer and related to Yoruba than Igbo.
Most people I know call Edo, Yoruba.
My Uncle's wife is Edo and she said that most of the older men in her village answers Yoruba name.
Only newer generation bears Edo name.
By the way, she's from Ake, Owan Local government.

The only states people refer as Igbo in South-South is Rivers and Delta state(not all of them, anyway) owing to the fact that they have Indigineous Igbo population.
