So Oranmiyan did not got to Benin again abi No more Oduduwa is originally Ekaladerhan from Benin...

So Eweka dropped from the sky So 'Oba' came from where

Wherever you hear 'loooonatic', just say 'yes!'

Whether you like it or not, Oranmiyan influence is all over Edo till tomorrow...

Even though I'm Yoruba but I think Igbo language is far better than our language and I urge every Yoruba person to learn Igbo

VirginFinder:


Oduduwa is definitely from the Middle East. Ditto all Yorubas.

There are many arabic words in Yoruba - Alejo, Alubarika, Adura, Alubosa, Bukata etc

There was no Oba in Benin until Oranmiyan came over.

Nikiballer:


Is your great great great grand daddy from Mecca or he fell from the sky

If he is from Mecca and is brothers to bayajidda the Hausa folks,how come your cultures are not similar to the Hausas and you don't speak Arabic...

Don't see me as a tribalist,I just wanted to let you know oduduwa is from Benin and that is why our cultures are similar and not because "ODUDUWA is from Mecca"

Oya prove me wrong...

*Tik tok tik"

Why not prove to me with archeological evidence with written recirds that span from 1890 below
With prove oyo and ife had some ancestral contact

Balogunodua:


are you still around...

gregyboy:



You're madman for that

Can you prove the credibility that ife and oyo had connections in historical past

All this bs stories were writing in the 1900 to politically unite tribes under one ancestory

Oromiyan coming to benin was a big lie, if you want to dubt me bring any record of it from 1897 below......

You will see that there is non and that oromiyan history was made during when benin was still in the western region just to unite benin with the dominant yoruba tribe....
Benin accepted the offer but when it backfired they requested out from western region
When they succeeded they wrote their own myth saying the yoruba oduduwa was from ife, that was the benin counter history


Wise up, dont let the political chess game fool you


Use the last picture to cool your brain

gregyboy:




Ooh you report me for a ban now i see my enemies

My good ancestors who overseas me here in earth would never allow the evil plans from the yorubas befall me

VirginFinder:
Yorubas and Edos are 2 different peoples.

However, Oranmiyan and his entourage from Ife left an indelible mark in Edo till tomorrow.

That's the source/cause of all these...

Edos will NEVER stop bearing Yoruba names and worshipping Yoruba deities...

OsamaB:


First of all, Yoruba is originally in reference to the Oyo empire and it was the name Hausa people called them (i.e. Oyoruba). Meaning an Ijebu man is Ijebu and Egba people are Egba.

Second of all, Edo was another empire and empires can comprise of different tribe of people who may not be the same. So, even the Benin empire of today can never lay claim of Ekiti or Ondo, even though they were part of the Benin empire. Even Bini and Esan people are different but know they have a history.

Third, the idea of calling people bastards to claim superiority is very weak. The British dismantled the empires and the Nigerian government cancelled history but that doesn't give you the right to insult people who you don't know.

gregyboy:



Eweka was the man who organized benin and formed a monarchy government he was crowned oba of benin


The word ile binu is from itsekiris who described the edo people as angry people to the Portuguese who first meant them at the shores


If you notice it is only Portuguese who called us benin throughout history even the itsekiris called us ado, the other neighbors called us idu and other forms of the word edo


Itsekiris only describes us as ile binu(land of anger) to the Portuguese as a way of warning to the Portuguese to aviod edo


You can thank me later for opening your eyes

gregyboy:


Why not prove to me with archeological evidence with written recirds that span from 1890 below

VirginFinder:


Nonsense! Ile Ibinu is a Yoruba statement. Even Itsekiris will shudder at your anus-inspired version of Benin history...

Eweka was Oranmiyan from Ife's son. He was the first 'Oba of Benin'. Nobody can dispute that.

I don't care how he reigned or what he did.

Oranmiyan and his entourage from Ife created the Yoruba influence in Benin forever.

Nikiballer:


Bullshit,It is normal to borrow words,phrases from other languages

The culture,idol worshipping is that from Mecca too....

Does the middle Eastern serve olokun,sango etc too

Even though I'm Yoruba but I think Igbo language is far better than our language and I urge every Yoruba person to learn Igbo

gregyboy:



Then i have no choice than to punish with my assignment when any yoruba prove too stubborn


I want you to bring me any archeological finds or written records from European which attested to benin-ife relationships from 15c to 1897 when the benin empire fell, if you can do that then my account will be putto shame

Etrusen:



what about common kingdom

Erojepromise:

look oranmiyan is from an Edo father the one yorubas call oduduwa who was an Edo prince exiled from the ogiso lineage his name was Ekalardehan , from his sojourn he changed his name to izoduwa found his way to ile if and became known as oduduwa there.
a l between chiefs threatened the unity of the kingdom and a search party went looking for the exiled king to rule them, got to ile Ife , found the banished prince but he was too old to rule as a result gave them his son oranmiyan who followed them but still couldn't make an impact in ruling the kingdom as his arrival was met with stiff opposition by a chief .......
He (oranmiyan) got married in bini and gave birth to a dumb son , after a while oranmiyan got tired of the strife and troubles of the Edo people and called the land of Edo "ile ibinu" which means home of anger with reference to the difficulty in ruling the kingdom...
in summary; languages in Nigeria amongst tribes inter connect/ relate ....

Even though I'm Yoruba but I think Igbo language is far better than our language and I urge every Yoruba person to learn Igbo

Balogunodua:


From the custodians of the Ogiso tradition, one of the oldest families in Igodomigodo/Benin, The Ogiamien Family, have declared:
1) Obas of Benin are tenants while Ogiamiens are Landlords as evidenced by Ekiopa treaty
2) Oduduwa had no link with Ogisos
3) The tittle Oba, was forced on Binis by Oranmiyan
4) That the Obas of Benin are historically from Ife.

Who could have more facts than the Aborigenes who are descendants of the Ogisos, the Ogiamien?

They also debunked the Ekalerdahan fabrication as an attempt to hide the origin of the Obas, and confirmed Ife as older than Benin. Pls read it up yourself.

What is Oduduwa in Edo language?

Alaska90:




Please I am sorry you are spreading false narrative on internet

The places you mentioned were never under Benin empire at anytime in history

And if you think otherwise, please can give references so that I can learn more

There is a different between influence and being under an empire

VirginFinder:


Yorubas were expelled from the middle east for being into paganism. So we brought those things with us.

Edo/Benin was influenced by Oranmiyan and his entourage from Ife. Nothing was borrowed here.

It is common to see Edos bear Yoruba names, do you see Yorubas bearing Edo names

So says a Mallam from Damaturu who have never been to my tribe Yoruba land
