[center]THE BENIN ORIGIN OF ONITSHA[/center]

Most of the oral history one may get publicly from Onitsha elders and their Ndi-Nze will tell you that Onitsha is originally of Benin kingdom. This is true to some extent. The man Onitsha has the same origin with Benin who formed the Benin kingdom out of the Ancient Edo kingdom. Some Onitsha people were therefore part of the famous Edo kingdom, which had its headquarters in what is today called Benin City…

Although both Benin and Onitsha are of the same father, people regard Benin as a non-Igbo related kingdom while Onitsha is seen generally as a core Igbo kingdom…

The Aguleri account has it that Oba (third son of Eri) is the father of Edo, who in turn took over the kingdom from his father (Oba) after his death. Edo extended the kingdom greatly further westwards and almost established a boundary with the Yorubas at Ile-Ife, the land and kingdom of Oduduwa.

You see? Nobody is arguing because they know Benin owns Lagos geopolitically while Igbos dominate it economically. smiley

Yes! Ibos are dominating Lagos economy in their imaginary lifestyle but the whole of ibosjew land has the lowest IGR and contribute nothing to the nation's economy grin cool
totit:
Akiolu never said bini own Lagos... what he is saying in that video in essence is that the oba of bini is honoured during the coronation rite at Enuwa.


Also, the video is incomplete, if you watch the complete video(below), Akiolu said it clean clear that bini doesn't own lagos

Good evening fellow nairalanders. Pardon me for having to deviate from the topic...please I'd like to solicit your support on behalf of one of my protégés. I am a teacher.

The contest is a very stiff one. So please help her to take a step closer to her dream of being a movie director by following her unique link below and vote for her. You are free to also drop a comment. I assure you, your vote is not wasted. Thank you and God bless you. Here is her link;
