Dapada. Guy, abeg speak for yourself because you are on your own. Oyo lo wa. Those people are not worth the stress.

Your brain is empty ; which people? Some nairaland guys live in an imaginary world , wake up idiot

Why do people continue to respond to you? You seem to know nothing but full of emotions and twisted every history just as your fellas. The Bini that is not even up to Ondo in everything now claiming West, East and South.
For your information, Ado was the Yoruba name given to Bini because Oranmiyan settled there. He gave you the name, Bini, prior to this, you were known as Igodomigodo and you were being ruled by Ogisos not Obas. Ado and Ido are Yoruba names for settlement. it's part of Yorubas' vocabulary just like Oba. So Bini also established Ado in Ota and all the Idos in Yorubaland? You people should hold on to your real history not all these sensational and emotional stories that never genuine or constant for one day you people are peddling around.

They're people enjoying hallucinatory existence. Ask them where they came from. They were so supreme, yet Nupe kingdom captured and retain the whole of Etsako and parts of Akoko Edo till colonial rule. Atah of Igala raided Bini as far as Ikpoba river. The Edo's are just getting educated, so the excitement is making them to commit historical blunders and intellectual Summersault. The empire that was not up to one tenth of the Caliphate is suddenly the strongest in our history. Yes, Yorubaland were raided, but you have to understand it was largely opportunistic. Have you ever read anywhere of Benin Kingdom(not empire at this stage) flexing muscle in the days of the mighty Oyo empire? Benin was a well behaved kingdom with no political significance. Benin had the opportunity to grow and feast on the towns and villages already in disarray as a result of the collapse of Oyo empire. In war, we lost to a formidable empire in Sokoto Caliphate and not a mushroom, hitherto unknown Bini kingdom. You will forever be the tail to the Yoruba no matter how much you envy us. We've already surpassed you in everything good

Guy, did Oranmiyan establish the Benin Obaship system that is extant today, a simple yes or no answer would suffice. Look, just so you know, I am not here to debate about whether or not Benin kingdom ever existed or performed exploits during its heydays. I honestly don't give a shyt bout none of that. I'm just here to terminate una lies about Oduduwa's origin, and correct the lies some of you are spreading about the ORIGIN of the 'Oba of Benin' title.

He did not.
