Wetin concern Easterners for Benin kingdom

Onitsha is part of Benin Kingdom

Movic1:
Where are those Easterners who said the Oba of Benin does not leave his palace and can never visit Oni of Ife? Your attention is needed here. Oniorisa is Oba Awon Oba. Kill yourself if you're not satisfied with it.

If you know, you know. My brother from the source.

Spot the ooni of ife at date 3:59 of this video of the coronation of the Oba of Benin:

The heads of past Oba of Benin buried in Ile-Ife says it all. Don't argue at your own disadvantage.
Give it to those wise ancestors of the Yoruba who insisted that their son's descendants heads be buried in Ile-Ife,they knew that someday some smart Alec will attempt to twist the truth.
Have you ever heard of an Ooni visit the Oba of Benin? The respected Oba of Benin is even behind the Alaafin of Oyo in ranking.
Long live Yoruba land. Long live Nigeria.

steveosaz:
These Yoruba guys of this generation are simply an embarrassment to literature and historical perspectives. Going down memory lane is a waste of time with them. You cannot bend an already dried fish lest it breaks.

But for the few amongst you who are a little bit above tge bar, I hope you know what symbolism means. Certain things are done to project or make particular statements.

Look at the chairs these two kings are sitting on and tell who is actually the baba.

Though I hate going down this low, but its important sometimes.
You give the high seat to your Oba even when he visits your domain. Buhari would always have the high seat whenever he visits a governor. That's the message being passed here. Open your brains!

See Logic!!

You need to change the oil in your brain. It is black

Onijagidijagan:

Falsified story..Oduduwa reigned more the 600years before Oranmiyan.

Which means Oranmiyan is the great, great, great and great grandson of Oduduwa

A stranger has never and will never dispose a Yoruba king in Yoruba lands.

Benin people needs to be educated about history.

Yet Nupe invaded Oyo (yoruba lands) deposed and chased out your monarchy ruled Yoruba for almost 100yrs.. and later came Fulanis who is still ruling yorubas till today

why are you paying attention to his rants ?
The guy uses the word history up and down and all he is doing is telling an unverryfyable story which keeps changeing.
There is still no prooof that "oduduwa" ever existed. But yoruba don't care about proof.

if oduduwa never existed then who is the elkhadaren or ilkhadaren or izoduwa depending on whatever lie u feel like telling that ur Benin oba said was the descendant of Ogiso and father of oranmiyan ur first king

What of Yaya Bello?

Well, what of Yaya Bello...? As long as we have old and brain dead Bubu, there will always be the likes of Yaya Bello. What we need is 75% youth and just about 25% brain intact and not too old Robert Mugabes

what self awareness the logic the guy use is a faulty one coz he tries to use where the king sat as a sign of superiority

davidnazee:

why not tell the whole story and which Yoruba land does Fulani except Ilorin which was not conquered but fell due to internal conflict

Look for your mistake.

Weird, your ooni of ife didn't dare say this trash in presence of Omo n'Oba n'Edo.
the only thing which came from ife is mental illness which you have in abundance.

but the current Ooni have said it before that bini got their king from ife. How far about oduduwa do u believe he still never existed.

What a day dreaming y.ar.i.ba says is non consequential. At least he is sain enough to not repeat that crazy claim when he is in presence of true royalty.
I don't need to believe anything about the oduduwa fairy tale, there is still no proof he ever existed.

Rexnegro:

yeah I think u are right , it's either the 2nd or 3rd son that went to benin , met people and rule over them after they got him angry then he named it Ile Binu now called Benin instead...once again u are right ..

not 2nd or 3rd but last son Oranmiyan

are u saying ur king Ewuare is crazy too coz he recognized oduduwa as the father of oranmiyan ur first king and if oduduwa never existed it means oranmiyan that u requested who is full blooded Yoruba still establish ur current Benin dynasty u are so proud of. https://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/10/pomp-pageantry-as-bini-kingdom-crowns-oba-ewuare-ii/

You can boldly make this fantastic claim while at the same time you accept the irony that your current ooni of ife's father was never ooni of ife, his father is still alive by the way.
Even your made up story makes no sense.

always mentioning me this foolish son of a foolish father who couldnt him anything

Kings say folkloric things in ceremonies. That is not a new thing. Besides, it is Oba Ewuare II.
And Omo n'Oba n'Edo said oduduwa was the first son of the Edo King. That part of the folklore is always lost on your likes.
Now back to a logical world: there is still no proof that oduduwa ever existed, but the mental illness coming from ife and its stupid ooni is very real.

Ise!!!



Those re-writing the history of the Benin/Ife are mostly kids of slaves returnees from Sierra Leone and Brazil. They needed an identity after the Kiriji war and started these nonsense of Oba of Benin is son to Ooni.

The same Ooni who was at the coronation of Oba of Benin, the same Ife that has a stool designated for only the Oba of Benin and its refered to our fathers stool.

Im sorry but that is very much false. There is no such stool in Ife.

You can take a tour of the Ile-oduduwa if you care for history and culture. There is no such special stool

Which "royal familly" ? yet in your wrapped mind, the father seniors the son. yet you accept that the ooni of ife seniors his father.
What sense does this make ?
Just face it, your politicians chose your ooni from a pool as large as they wish.
You don't have a monarchy, you have a chairman.
Your oduduwa tale makes no sense.

Onijagidijagan:

You people argue so blindly, sometimes required to be flogged 25 strokes before getting wisdom.

Have u ever read d history of Oba of Benin? the first king that brought Oba to Benin is from Ife.

And Ife was his ancestral home. Don't be impress with d ibos on nairaland giving you cheap likes you don't warrant.

All Obas in Nigeria and beyond migrated from IFE.

Furthermore, Oranmiyan reigned as Ooni at ILE IFE and was buried at ILE IFE. Where else would but befit Oba Bini to visit? ILE IFE with a radiant lordship and kingly title word known as Oba.

lol see how u contradict urself to sound smart. First u say oduduwa never existed I showed u proof that ur god oba of Benin believes it u said it’s folklore. So answer me if oduduwa never existed like u say that means the so called dlkhadaren u claim was lost and found in ife never existed too. But oranmiyan also ruled Benin and since there is no longer any bini claim on oranmiyan via oduduwa that means nonetheless a Yoruba man oranmiyan started the oba dynasty of Benin without no contest or u will deny oranmiyan never rule Benin and eweka his son continue his dynasty to this modern day.

sounding more foolish as u comment before there was governor created by the coming of the British we still choose the king the same way not necessarily by direct relation of the late king but a descendant of oduduwa

I think ignorant people like you should stop talking at once.
Every real king is Godly in nature, that is part of being a king. And the Oba of Benin is a true king.
His ancestor waged a war against britain for God's sake !

Don't mind those fools that relish in giving Omo noba a godlike personality that he himself doesn't lay claim to
