erusen: Ode! At least, you agree that Ogun and Orunmila that Binis worship belong to Yoruba. I am more interested in the whites learning/speaking Yoruba than Binis learning/speaking English/Portuguese. |

VirginFinder:give me proof they are Yoruba deities,Wikipedia proof abeg,since white people have been your language as it helped you in any way in your life?,tell me the first nigerian to speak foreign language? |

VirginFinder: Thank you and you people should please stop disgracing yourselves here. Leave bini thread and go look for yoruba thread, we dont need your insults. |
Re: Benin City, The Mighty Medieval Capital Now Lost Without Trace by VirginFinder: 3:56pm On Mar 19, 2016 |
erusen: Ode! Asking me to prove that Ogun and Orunmila are Yoruba deities is like asking me to prove that I am a Yoruba man. It is senseless! That white people want to learn/speak Yoruba rather than Bini shows which language is more value to the international community. That fact alone makes me feel good. Ever heard of Susan Wenger? |

VirginFinder:tell the first Nigerian to speak foreign language stamarer,so u still don't have proof about the gods,hmmmm,so u feel better because people your language,tell me the positive value it has added to your life,people learn languages in deferent part of the world,how did the European did business with Bini in the 15th century without learning the language? |

erusen: You are a dullard! I've told you that it gives me joy seeing whites learn/speak my language. What else do you want me to say? People learn languages alright but not Bini. The subservient Binis had to learn Portuguese in order to do business with them. Is that difficult for you to fathom? |

bokohalal: Then why are yorubas more than Bini people. Why do they have more states than Bini people. Why do Bini people have Yoruba names |

while our politicians i.e Adams Oshiomole and his wife are visiting tourist attractions like great wall of China ,here is Great wall Of Benin City decaying ...f**king leaders everywhere One can't even differentiate between Oba of Benin Palace and the commoners houses in the city while their governors are embezzling moneys and building mansions. Even the roads are bad #whatWENTwrong |

erusen:LOL! Bini's language that's eroding as fast as a squirrel is the one being learnt by Yoruba? In my yrs of stay in Uniben, hardly would you see a bini student speak in bini, only few of their adults do and when I say adult, I mean the old grannies. |
