Moneywomen17: none were using it before the 20th century.. before the 20th century, Oba Sijuade will be called Ooni Sijuade and not Oba Sijuade so also Oba Adeyemi would have been called Alaafin Adeyemi and not Oba.. none was using the Oba title along with their names till around the begining of the 20th century. That style was copied from Benin.. 2 Likes |

TAO11:lol this edo boys self. Always jumping from one post to another. Anybody with even half sense will know that the word oba is yoruba with all the evidence like the otunba, oja oba, abobaku and co. Even Joba when a new king is installed. It’s clear as Bleep. 7 Likes |

lawani: That is what I'm saying.. He was called Alafin Sango and not Oba Sango.. you guys should just admit.. the styling of Oba as a title was adopted from Benin.. The word Oba may be as old as your language just likewise as in Edo.. but as a title it is new to you. 1 Like |

Moneywomen17: All this does not mean anything if there was never a connection between both party They are so many documents of tribes benin people encountered in European document Even dated the time benin newly found eko But oromiyam, ife, and co was not mentioned even wen benin had to constantly travel to summit the oba head to ife no record was documented down What of the relationship between benin ans oyo none was recorded too even when oromiyam father migrated to build oyo If you aint seeing the conspiracy by your people Thrn only god can judge yoy here |

TAO11:fact. How can anybody say the word oba is not Yoruba and borrowed is very ridiculous. How can a word be borrowed when it has a meaning in the language and plenty of others in the Yoruba language relate to it. On the other hand how can someone claim a word if it doesn’t mean shit in ur language. 3 Likes |

[quote author=Moneywomen17 post=89398164] my guy TA011 already proved it to u. So don’t derail the point we are making regarding the word oba. Meanwhile the word Oba is yoruba cuz it doesn’t mean shit in edo language. [/quote Lol, no evidence Yoruba is a political canopy which was formed to escape oyo rule |

lawani: They are Obas (rulers) no doubt but were not using the word Oba as a title.. only the Benin kings were called Oba as a title.. The yorubas trying to equate themselves with the Powerful kings of Benin adopted the Oba title.. 1 Like |

gregyboy:if there was no connection how then did we borrowed the word oba from u. Why does ur oba claim his ancestors came from Ife. Why does he say he is number 40 king cuz oranmiyan was number cuz I don’t seem to remember Yoruba putting a gun to his head to say it. Why does ur edo son egrhaveba who wrote a book where his source according to him is the king and chiefs and lot of prominent families in edo wrote that ur king head is buried in ife and ur king came from ife. Cuz last time I checked those people are not Yoruba. 4 Likes |

Moneywomen17: The words ade, uwa, egbe, all have meanings in both Edo and Yoruba languages.. If tomorrow Edo uses any of these words as a powerful title, I bet the yorubas will immediately adopt the title too and start claiming its a Yoruba word only and Edo borrowed it.. we know what you guys are capable of.. 1 Like |

davidnazee:but oba doesn’t mean shit in Benin though. How can there be oba and they will not be called oba does that make sense to u. Yorubas in Benin called their king oba but I guess they adopted it from u a tribe in edo who they have never heard of in their life. Smh. 3 Likes |
Re: Benins Are The Owners Of Ogboni Confraternity and olokun worship by lawani: 4:42pm On May 10, 2020 |
davidnazee:they are not obas but they have oja oba and otunba? They have their orikis but oba is the only word for king. Only Lagos is doing what you are accusing everyone of. All Yoruba obas are addressed with their orikis or styles |

davidnazee:ade in Yoruba is crown what does it mean in edo. Egbe in Yoruba is like society or community I don’t know what u mean by uwa but if it’s iwa it’s character. With that said oba means king in Yoruba but in ur language it has no meaning so how does what u wrote make sense. |
