No, you are mistaking.
The case has already been decided in court, more than 30 years ago !
And the ijaws are once again flaunting the decision of the magistrates.
I don't understand how it were possible for you to misunderstnad my statemet.
I clearly said that the matter had been decided in the 80's.

Yyeske:
If the case is in court the governor shouldn't have said anything about it, he should just go through the court and the the Ijaws people shouldn't have proceeded with the coronation of Pere until the case has been given a final verdict

historyworld030:
Keep playing with those people's lives, when the shit hits the fan, you will be the only ones to blame.
I am only wondering why they can't see that some people who claim to be their brothers are using them as sacrificial lambs.

if the Fg couldn't wipe the Ijaws despite all the military bombardments. what makes tiny binis think they can stand d ijaw-trouble wen it looms.. are really in a wasteland? we gonna send ur stupid Oba to exile in dis modern era,, try it bro.. Alah bless you bloody slave.

are u d only slave here?

Jupxter:


So the Edo people like the Urhobos?

Sorry no South south person should be asking this as the answer is too obvious

Yyeske:
From that link, it shows the Ijaws had lived in that area before the Binis and are aboriginal to the land

even the Portuguese confirmed this... now u see why It really hurts to see this online immigrants from italy making noise?

Those who are calling for peace, I hope you can see the onesidedness of these provocations. I don't think any edo person here has even insulted the pigs these ijaw slaves dropped by their senior slave jaja call king.
It is funny how you guys are so brave with the lives of your (I must assume) sacrifical lambs.
When the shit hits the fan, you will understand why the Edo were able to create an empire.
Let us get this started I am tired of talking, fighting is more natural for me.

Alexus23:

Please, stop this nonsense. Is it only in Ijaw land that oil is been drilled? What about Igboid areas in Rivers and Delta that oil is carted away on daily basis? No need even mentioning Abia and Imo. Ijaws are not the only region surffering from neglect and marginilization. Just don't involve us in your troubles.

Who be this one,we warlords dey talk,fly sef wan dance waist dance were we dey

Then the Ijaws should please allow peace to reign since it has been decided in the court or they can appeal if they are not satisfied.
Meaning the governor was right in threatening to arrest those involved in the coronation.

That's why i'm asking. I don't know. I really need to know

Ogbeni jabojo.

so covered because you are not my lecturer. u don't mark my scripts, so face the water if you know how to swim stop calculating the length.

I hope you don't claim your lecturers wife one day, anything stupid is possible with the ijaws, you know

just kill yourself bro, your life is a total mess and you're a disgrace to humanity. Traitors

Must you make it easy for them to fool you ?
So all they need as proof to convince you is just a "talk" ?
Is this the best nigerian schools can offer.
I have been posting historical documents, maps drawn hundreds of years ago and just one talk would defeat history ?
Jeesus, I am starting to understand why the "country" is not going anywhere.

Yyeske:

Thank you, I am sorry for being wicked with you on my last comment, you seem sincere.
But these ijaw problems are really annoying.
I have never seen a people who are so dull in my life, just going into your land, making false claims and then trying to take over your land and on top of that claiming that you are the aggressor.

My brother, I'm so confused with different assertions here from both sides but since the case had been deliberated on by a court and verdict given then it stands and the Ijaws should abide by it.

Provalker:
Ijaws own the land in contention, Benin people should respect themselves.

shut up your mouth, even king jaja who is the founder of ijaw nation was a slave from igboland , he later deepen him self into slave trade business some of this slave that he gathered and was unable to sell after his arrest are today known as ijaw ppl, ordinary ijaw does not have identity

The problem with Nigerians [Benin people in this context] is that reading & research is a far removed habit/culture from your lifestyles.

Your lost Binu prince story was a renaissance-esque thought that began in the 80s. A plant that sprouted from the question raised by Prince Edun Akenzua. He said ‘Bini kingdom is surrounded by several kingdoms. Why did Bini have to send to Ife for help to resolve their political imbroglio’ — this birthed the revisionism in Bini history which your Oba brought to full glare with his ‘Obedient servant’ book. Bini history prior to this had no traces of a lost prince, not even in the first indigenously written Bini by Egarevba.

The lost prince theory is hinged on noun rendition - Oduduwa to Izoduwa, two words meaning differnt things with different etymologies.
Oduduwa was an Ife resident, he resided in Ora Hills in More Quarter of Ife. His ancestral settlement has been combed and artefacts were found there but it has not been excavated for it is a sacred and secluded place.

After Oduduwa unified the entire sub-settlements into one, all occupants moved towards the palace [where Ife palace is presently]. Oduduwa moved his people to Idio [it was the previous palace but right beside the present palace]. His family and his settlers from his previous settlements all live there, worship him there and his shrine is there.

Oduduwa had an actual Yoruba name. His name was Osin-Ora. This name is usually guarded heavily, only those belonging to his family cult [non blood relatives could not join until few decades ago], the same way it is only in Ife we have Oduduwa cult and he is the only deity apart from the Supreme God who does not have an effigy. This secrecy dedicated to the man is why not much of his information is out there. The are other families in Ife holding information on Osin-Ora but Ejio family compound for example was the family that went out to meet Oduduwa and his family on the way to welcome him from up the hills - they hid this in the story of Sky Descent theory to prevent people from going to the hill for it is visited only when a new Ooni is to be coronated. He stays there for a while, walks the path Oduduwa took, stops at certain family compounds as he did and heads to his Idio compound.

Oduduwa was a nickname given to him for starting a new era in Ife history. It is different from and has nothing to do with your Izoduwa lost prince. Your theory is synonymous to saying the Ugbo or Igbos Moremi betrayed and triggered their evacuation from Ife are the present Ugbo-Ukwu or Igbo in presentday Nigeria.

Please look for your lost prince in the Atlantic Ocean.

Ife history is well documented in family cults/rituals, orikis & festivals. The latter which, in Ife, is never a funfair stuff but a re-enactment of actual events.

This your moniker is a respected deity in Ife-odan where I'm from. Your mentioned Ejio. We have Obajio compound here, also called Ejio.

Court verdict Well if it is true, then the best is to appeal. However, where is the evidence if ever there is an existing court verdict? wopu onu no okwu nha. Obgasigieyi.

Leave ijaw land if you want benin to still exist.

Dude, I keep wondering if it is actually possible to have a logical conversation with you guys.
I am not asking you to send me to a boook written recently and whose authors are pretending to narrate an event which allegedly happened some 500 years before the author was born.
I am asking you for a very simple thing: what was decorating the palaces of your "kings" when the british arrived ?
If you want to make a claim, provide historical documents to prove it !

You claim that "yoruba" taught Edo how to make Edo Bronzes, then where were the bronzes decorating "yoruba kings" palaces ?
Which of your "kings" were exiled by the british ?

LMAO, this guy is an olodo sha.

You'll have to read, it will help improve your 'Use of English' and broaden your mind with regards to the greatness of the Yoruba.

There's your answer. Except you can read, there isn't any other way I can be of help to you.

Look for historical documents, precolonial maps and so on, stop believing stories.
When people make statements don't believe unless there is proof backed by historical evidence.
Use your brain as you were taught in school.
Always be skeptical.
Don't ever rely on feelings or emotions, all that matter is getting to the truth, even if it hurts.

You've written well enough man, in both logical reasoning and garnered with facts too, anyone not laced and romanced with sentimentality and a biased mindset can easily pick out truths from your arguments and see how you've tryna defend your own from gallivanting cowards.

you should relax your fingers man and have a goodnight rest, all this their rantings will be over in due time.

You are a real joker. I can't keep telling you the same thing while you keep repeating your original response.
Stop claiming "yoruba" taught the Edo how to make Edo bronzes, the "yoruba"s couldn't even make such for themselves.
The ooni and the alaafin were not powerful, that is why they gave up without a fight. Not that their land were even big anyway.
The real king was Oba Ovonramwen who rightly fought for his kingdom and for all of you.
