There is no akpede tribe in Edo, unless you are referring to Agenebode in the Etsako region. Bro there are too many tribes in Edo, we even have towns where they speak Yoruba and bear Yoruba names, and towns up north like igarra, auchi - the region Oshiomole is from that are more inclined to the north in terms of having a huge Muslim population and answering northern names. The state is massive cheesy

He is talking about Agbede, the tribes are not so many the way you are making it to be. You have the Bini Majority in Edo south, You have the Esans in Edo central. You have the Etsakos which Include Auchi you are talking about, Agenebode, Agbede and several other Etsako towns in three Lgas in the North. Owans with two Lgas in the North alongside with Akoko Edo with several Edo tribes, Okpameri, Uneme, Okpe Ososo etc. Alongside with Igbanke and some Ijaw groups which however make up a miniscule minority

It is a sad thing not many people understand the Benin dialect or language. Benin highlife music (music for the mature minds and deep thinkers) is the best music on earth. Listening to any Benin old music teaches you a lot about life, values and the vanity of life. Good night legend.
