Benin Republic Should Change It's Name Back To Dahomey by Nobody: 9:44am On Dec 27, 2018
Benin republic is the most confused country in the world. They left their original name and picked a slaved named..

It's a known fact the great Benin empire extended to their backward country that doesn't give them the right to claim the name.


What if Nigeria divides and we all go our separate ways? What country name should we now pick.

It must be Benin.

My Benin people of Edo State, Benin Republic has heard you and will stop making use of the name.

Tokyo had also envisaged that one day, a state in Nigeria would be created to bear the name Edo, that was why Tokyo changed its name from Edo towards the end of the mid 19th century.
