Benin Origin Of Onitsha City! by Danladi7: 10:42am On Nov 23, 2017 |
Onitsha Mmili was known as Ado N'Idu by migrants who departed from the vicinity of the Kingdom of Benin near the far western portion of Igboland (near what is now Agbor ), after a violent dispute with the Oba of Benin that can be tentatively dated to the early 1500s. [5] These migrants traveled eastward through what is now Western Igboland and various towns also called "Onitsha", for example Onicha- Ugbo, "farmland-Onitsha". Folklore has it that, Onitsha was founded by one of the sons of Chima, the founder of Issele-Uku kingdom in western Igboland . Chima, a prince of the ancient Benin kingdom emigrated, settled and founded what is now known as Issele-Uku in Aniocha North Local Government Area. The eldest son of Chima eventually emigrated across the Niger River to establish the Onitsha community. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onitsha point of correction:This doesn't mean Edo people own onitsha like some people with low I.Q think of lagos(lagos Island per say,excluding lekki).by the way,benin people never founded lagos,they only ruled(lagos Island specifically not lagos state) and left with few of their descendants still in lagos island . 1 Like 1 Share |

SINCE WHEN IS WIKIPEDIA A CREDIBLE SOURCE ? In precolonial maps made in the 1400 Lagos is already pictured as being part of the Benin Kingdom ! So for you to make your bold claim about BENIN Kingdom, it would mean that you can time travel. Can you ? Danladi7: 1 Like |

NairaHercules:Hahahaha. Dem nor wan accept Benin ancient influence. Benin is not claiming any body's land in 2020. But we cannot allow people deny Benin history. Greater Benin is one of the most widespread people in Africa. |
