steveosaz:Yea I heard their pretty tribalistic. I grew up abroad, so I wasn’t familiar with much of the tribalism going on in Nigeria until I got to Nairaland. I knew it went on, but I didn’t know the extent. The Yorubas are coming on here acting like racial supremacists and stuff. Not knowing that there is a whole world outside of Nigeria. They need to get on America’s or Europe’s level before they start feeling all big and sh** America: $57,000 median salary a year Yoruba: $2,500 median salary a year You guys need to humble yourselves and stop acting all proud and arrogant, when ain’t sh** on a world level That’s how these Yorubas treat Egun people very poorly and as 2nd class. I remember reading an article 2 years ago about it 2 Likes 1 Share |

steveosaz: No mind them bro.. They don't even know when have been defeated. The only thing they are now dwelling on is Ekhaladeran.. They have nothing else to talk about again but to keep bringing up Ekhaladeran while we have thousands of true facts to throw at them. If this thread reach 1000 pages it is only Ekhaladeran they will be talking about because we forced them into that corner.. And I think it even serve a good purpose for us because now any curious spectator that want to find out about this Ekhaladeran/Oduduwa story will go online to research and they will only find 2 options... Is Oduduwa the same Ekhaladeran the Edo exiled prince, or Did Oduduwa descend from the skies with chains? we know which option is more real and which option sounds very foolish. So make dem dey shout Ekhaladeran, It serves our purpose. 1 Like 1 Share |

steveosaz: Can you please connect Ekaladheran to the Yoruba through the arts, cults, rites, divinities, dynasties, orikis, totems, guilds, arokin, naming and language of Ife. If you can do this successfully, instead of speculated theories, I will bow to ekladheran and accept him as Oduduwa. ![]() The ball is in your court..... 1 Like |

Y0ruba: Dude that nigga who quoted that is an eshan guy If a fellow benin man quote that i would even refuse is claims because the edo indigenes of olds never knows when the oba dies nor to say hiw he is buried that man is an ishan man who has no business to thread upon a royal history ...until the oba says it then we will all agree ...but what i still know is we havnt seen any bronze head of the oba of benin in ife or alafin head or what is it just the oba of benin alone burying heads there to show superiority. If its only him then sorry get comma ...because alafin is junior to ife,olowo is junior to ife so thier head are all suppose to ve there ....are they there ![]() 1 Like 1 Share |

gregyboy: In American homeland all decesead soldiers are buried in the homeland. In American bases outside the homeland all deceased soldiers are transported back to the homeland soil for burial. You understand that? Use this to process your logic on why descendants of Oranmiyan were taken back to their homeland for burial but his brothers sitting on dynasties in the homeland do not have to be transported anywhere. |

BabaRamota1980: Lol.....i thought said they birthed benin na so how come benin is not a yoruba homeland ...abi is it only the oba of benin they birthed only... Ok how come out of all the kingdoms surrounding Benin including yoruba territories like ondo,ekiti they didnt go find king there they probably wanted to stress themselves so they decided ife with no somehow connection.... If you can use the same america logic for explaining the former u shld use it on this one.... As we all know d king stool is a hereditary the ile ife own is divination now use this as a simple logic Mind u all both benin nd yoruba tho am benin but am a philosopher i reason outside the box removing fallacy nd ethnocentrism in my comment i dislike african history with passion except the egyptian history ...d oduduwas history with a philosophical reasoning you can deduced the truth from the fact.... 2 Likes 1 Share |

All you fake Yoruba people! How can Ife be your spiritual capital when it didn’t even exist until 1900s...the Ooni of Ife is a fake office.,might as well be an extension of the British empire. All the land inhabited by Osun people belonged to the Ijebu. Please see map 1892 2 Likes 1 Share

gregyboy: Bro I think you are wrong in your observations.. on the contrary it is the Yorubas that have been shamed and exposed of their lies. Edos unlike the Yorubas do not indulge in fairy tales. Yorubas are the ones promoting their fairytale about oduduwa descending from the skies, fairytale about mythical Oyo empire and after we slapped the fairytales out of their mouth they resulted to calling Edos witches, our women prostitutes.. we on the other hand have been presenting historical facts and accounts which are documented not fairytales. Saying Ekhaladeran is oduduwa is not a fairytale, neither is the fact that Benin founded Lagos a fairytale. Also saying Benin conquered and subjugated the Yorubas and ruled over them for at least 500yrs a fairytale.. it is a fact. We also conquered Eastern Yoruba lands. That their ancestors were weak and cowardly is not a fairytale. All these are true accounts of the Yorubas. So if you see the Yorubas doing all the shouting and doing long write ups it is due to the frustrations and humiliations we have subjected them to. We don’t need to shout or write long epistles like them. Everything is readily available on the internet and google search. So don’t let their shouting and jargons bother you, it is the cries of defeat. 1 Like 1 Share |

The fact that Eshans are Edo is not a fairytail. I am certainly not a guy who discusses fairytails. I brought out precolonial maps and that is all I needed for my arguments. The fact that yoruba are skilled at duping and lying is not lost on anyone. I have said it many times that an educated adult can easily debunk the yoruba lies and I have done so often. When you lack knowledge on something, don't replace that knowledge with some "assumptions". Sometimes, it is as if you actually believe that if an information about the Edo is good and you lack knowledge of that information, then it must be a fairytail and the reality must be much more sinister. You need to research things thoroughly before talking about them. And for your info, I don't care about what a calabar guy or a yoruba thinks, I only want my own people to know their history without filters and assumptions. I bet you didn't know that Benin City was only the capital of Benin Kingdom and not the Kingdom itself. We all learn everyday, no shame in that. gregyboy: 1 Like 1 Share |
Re: Oba Of Benin Visits Ooni Of Ife by Nobody: 4:51am On Jun 18, 2018 |
We have to be carefull on several things though. Oduduwa is a myth, a folkloric figure, there is no historical document of his existence. Rather it is a story being told with no proof to back it. Also, what people need to focus on are historical documents: documents describing historical events and written in the same period as the events. That is what it really means to document ones history. A lot of things are written in the internet which are lies and fabrication, in that category you can put almost everything written by a yoruba about african history. The yoruba filled wikipedia with fairytails and pretended that it was actual history. My 2 cents. Good day my brothers, I prefer to talk directly to you guys than to talk to the yoruba trolls. davidnazee: 1 Like 1 Share |
