Humility is a Virtue we Nigerians really need to Start Praying for


Have you ever heard of Mansa Musa of the Mali Empire before

Well he was once the richest man on Earth

Yeah he was also great as well as Ewuare like the story said

Lol
You people really don't know anything outside your small Bini to think Ewuare was the greatest King in West Africa. If wealth, power and significance of reign is greatness

Where do you put Askia Mohammed, Sunni Ali, Mansa Sakura, Mansa Musa, Sundjata Keita, Idris Alouma, Oduduwa, Tunka Manin, Sultan Bello?

Bro I understand you ododuwa only have power over ife. But Ewuare was in control of what is now know as south west south south south east Nigeria he was the reason Bight of Benin was named bro u should go true his story no king control a large trade than him and Mansa Musa was the greatest forget Ododuwa he only gave birth to most king but he only have control over ife. Not like Ewuare who control down to lagos east boder by cameroon down to bight of Benin to the south ocean

This is not true by objective observation of the relics of those periods
We have evidence that Ife's influence and trading outposts during the century oduduwa must have reigned reached as far north as modern Kwara and Kogi states. That's why it was easy for his household members as well as those of other powerful figures in Ife could just walk up to places and set up dynasties.
This is largely a new study but from observation of evidence that survive from this period.

Secondly, Ewuare was not even the most powerful Bini ruler. Bini at its height was not Ewuare's reign
The height was the Ozolua to Ehengbuda reigns
The significance of Ewuare is that he set the stage for the later Obas. What you are doing is giving credit for the exploits of other Obas to Ewuare

@bold, lmao. That's just false. The entire Benin empire did not even have such a size. Cameroon ke?

Don’t believe me believe a slave that was taken there at that period and for Oduduwa he only ruled ife Ewuare has control over the full Nigeria south and his magica power and army was second to non he could single handedly defeat a nation

Ozulua knows as conqueror he conquered 200 states even in that he was credited for Ewuare still outshine him Ewuare conquerd 201 202 Ewuare was also successful in trading Bight of Benin empire was bordering Cameron in the east bordering Gold cost/ Dahomey in west this as far as what Ewuare set

You are very very stupid.

How could you Bini people edit Wikipedia and and write that Bini Kingdom had something to do with South East.

For your information Olaudeh Equino was from present day Delta North senatorial zone.
And Delta North had make it clear that they are not Ndigbo.

You first started with "Onitsha and Western Ndigbo are from Bini" but when you saw that it has been proved beyond reasonable doubt that the ancestor of these people is Eze Chima, you went blank.


Why don't you name the usual Bini princes or generals that over-ran South East.

Talking of over- running South East, if you think that Bini Kingdom could bring Ohafia, Abriba, Abam, Edda, Nkoro, Aro, Ezza, Ikwo etc to their knees, then you are living in fool's paradise.

Away with your Kingdom that you call Empire.

If you read about Mansa Musa and other rulers of old Ghana, Mali, Timbuktu, Songhai etc and you still come here to post nonsense, then you should be admitted into a psychiatrist.

To boost your ego, your people will start with "the white men bowed to our Oba". If you read up that the European were crawling like snakes before the rulers of the people of Southern Africa, you will know that the "bowing" wasn't genuine. If it was genuine, your old Kingdom wouldn't have been sacked.


Lastly, stay on your Lane. South East has absolutely nothing to do with your people. Don't mistake Delta North for South East.


Seun should start removing this false narratives from his site. The site looks like a primary school site.

Ok still explain the map

So I should leave fact and believe you?

2 history fact I brought to back my claim.
1 is the map of Bight of Benin empire or Kingdom as you said.

2 Is a narrative of a black slave that was bought in that environment at that time.

What history fact apart from igbo Write up that back this your claim before 19th century?

3thd the video is just a story that shows the greatest king of that falling west Africa kingdom greatness. And not to debate or reduce other Africa country greatness in history.

See, there is nothing much to explain in the map.

There were many great kingdom in Southern Nigeria before almagamation, but the route in which the Portuguese entered Southern was in Bini territory, so the Portuguese as a matter concentrated on Bini Kingdom.

This focus or concentration inspired them to conclude that Bini kingdom was the all and all in Southern Nigeria.
