OsamaB:You have said nothing in this write up and answering Preye wont even make me take my foot slightly of the pedal , as I and other well meaning Izon otu continue to drive towards an Ijaw nation devoid of lies and marginalization by u and your likes Read carefully All this is written by non ijaws or will u still deny the most accepted bini historian cited E. Alademomi Kenyo, who in his book, titled ‘The Origin and Title of Yoruba Rulers’ (N.D) Page 3, stated: ‘Up till time, the Oba (in Benin) and his people were pure Yoruba and did not understand the language of the aborigines, who usually salute themselves and the new people (the Bini) Adoo, Dolo.’ It is an indisputable fact that it is only the Ijaws that greet Adoo and Dolo in Nigeria. “here is a bini mans Dr J .U. Egharevba’s book titled, “The Short History of Benin’ (1968) to back our claims, we equally referred to Prof. Alan Ryder, a British national and former professor of history at University of Ibadan in his book, ‘Benin and the Europeans 1485-1897,’ Page 27, which states inter alia, ‘Whichever of the slave rivers the Portuguese frequented, the people they first met and traded with, would have belonged to Ijo (Ijaw) tribe, which at that time dominated the coastal belt of the swamp forest, extending inland to a depth of 30-40miles in the region. IT IS CLEAR THAT UGHOTON WAS THE BOUNDARY BETWEEN IJAW AND BINI: "In the meantime he (Consul James Phillips) sent a message forward to the Oba, Benin's king, that his present mission was to discuss trade and peace and demanding admission to the territory in defiance of Benin law explicitly forbidding his entry. Unfortunately for Phillips, some Itsekiri trading chiefs sent a message to the Benin king that 'the white man is bringing war'. On receiving the news the Benin king quickly summoned the city's high-ranking nobles for an emergency meeting, and during the discussions the Iyase, the commander in chief of the Benin Army argued that the British were planning a surprise attack and must be defeated. The Benin king however argued that the British should be allowed to enter the city so that it can be ascertained whether or not the visit was a friendly one. The Iyase ignored the king's views, and ordered the formation of a strike force that was commanded by the Ologbosere, a senior army commander, which was sent to Ughoton to destroy the invaders. On 4 January 1897, the Benin strike force composed mainly of border guards and servants of some chiefs caught Phillips' column totally unprepared at Ugbine village near Ughoton. Since Phillips was not expecting any opposition and was unaware that his operation was being perceived with alarm in Benin, the contingent's only weapons, consisting of the officers' pistols, were locked up in the head packs of the African porters.[7] Only two British officers survived the annihilation of Phillips' expedition,[8] which became known as the 'Benin Massacre'." NB: Please note very carefully that the Iyase (the Commander In Chief of the Bini Army) did not send his soldiers to Gelegelegbene or any other Ijaw Community but to Ughoton which is precisely a Bini Community and Ughoton till this day is the boundary between Ijaw and Bini which tells you that they know their boundary. PEOPLE AND DEMOGRAPHY The main ethnic groups in Edo State are: Edos, Afemais, Esans, Owans and Akoko Edos. Virtually all the groups traced their origin to Benin City hence the dialects of the groups vary with their distance from Benin City. The Bini speaking people who occupy seven out of the 18 Local Government Areas of the state constitute 57.54% while others Esan (17.14%) Afemai compirising of Etsako (12.19%), Owan (7.43%), and Akoko Edo (5.70%). However, the Igbira speaking communities exist in Akoko Edo as well as Urhobos, Ijaws, Itsekiris communities in Ovia North East and South West Local Government Areas especially in the borderlands. Also, Ika speaking communities exist in Igbanke in Orhionmwon LGA. http://www.edostate.gov.ng/edo-people/ Facts first as always, thats how I roll |

There is a clear difference between a philosopher and an innovative person. Perhaps you can state your purpose clamor rather than you and other so-called devoted Izons choosing to abusive about your drive. While considering that your purpose, I sympathize with you for been marginalized but hope that you are talking from a tax-payers view not one who thinks he has the right to resources on the ground.

AdaFonju: NO! Those red assed basterrds are NOT and NEVER will be a part of SW, Afonja once helped them fight against fulani where they were defeated and about to be wheeled away as slaves, but what we get is twisting the History and claiming Superiority over the Afonjas, even claiming our prestigious EKO, so we pushed em to that fhucking geographical area called Edo state. I hate them with passion, they can run mouths and beat chests than the Igbos, there's always friction btwn a typical Afonja and a Bini, we never get along well- I prefer Igbo babes and abokki friends than those ashawo basterrds anyday. If Nigeria divides today, they will be on the causality side. With SW in their front and Ijaw at the back- WE will show no mercy. I'm sure the Flathheads and the abokkis will take many of their witches and ashawos as slaves. 2 Likes 1 Share |

AdaFonju: Propaganda exist in every news organization, foreign or local. You can have a thousand peres for all I care but you cannot demand that they become a burden on public budget. Left to me, government should de-recognise all traditional rulers as many are force of instability, anyone who wants a ruler must pay and maintain such from their personal pockets without forcing unwilling people to part with their money. 1 Like 2 Shares |
