Leave the boy, you didn't see the nonsense he wrote up there for me as evidence that ijaws are the oldest tribe



Bro it's in official records that up to the Atlantic ocean in some part of the niger delta was control by the Benin,Up till this day the biggest river leading to the Atlantic ocean in Delta state is still called the Benin river.....
Even the bight was named after Benin empire in the interior...c let's always admit the truth...
You don't compare the might of the ancient empire of Benin to ijaw...



I will have to ignore Ebi and the other moniker they are same person

Your mumu.
Ijaws are bigger than ibos in population.
Why didn't ibos use their false population and swallow Nigeria up already.

This is why I said igbos need to treat your nonsense once and for all.
You guys can't come from Ghana and be constituting yourselves into a big nuisance here..

Bight of Benin and not bight of Ijaw....

No European wrote about the ijaw,if they did nothing of significant...
Go and read European archive you would see Igala,Arochukwu,Benin,Ife

But can't find the oldest ethnicity in Nigeria in European archive...
Reason why I am referring to European archive because they would be the most neutral entity here

Oya answer my questions.
Why are Bini so far far far far away from the Atlantic ocean coast today, that if they don't pass many hundreds of Ijaw villages, they can't reach the Atlantic ocean?

You guys came from isreal according to Ibo mumu.
You followed the white man to this land as his loyal house helps. Basically helping the invaders. You then settle on every sea shore with your funny faces and strange language..
Now you have followed a new master; the crude Fulani. You now work happily and proudly as his pipelines guardsmen! And you do all that by insulting indigenous locals. Continue with your insults and We will soon remind you of your Ghana origins..

Then which time we come get to use una as slaves till we make una King.
In the case of Jaja.
Re: The Truth About The Benin People, And The Ijaws Of Edo. by Ebi2233: 7:38am On Nov 09, 2021
14 canoe houses from Ibani-Ijaw followed Jaja to form Opobo.
Inside this 14 only 1 is Jaja house, and all Jaja children have Ijaw mothers, and even Jaja was Acculturated as Ijaw first.
We accept even strangers as part our own, but Ibo discriminate even fellow Ibo and call them OSU or outcast.

Every group dealt with slaves to and fro during those years. Read your history.
It only becomes a later day bragging right for those groups dealing with cultural inferiority complex presently..

If you were the original inhabitants of the kingdom with a defined heritage and lineage, how did a "slave" end up your king? That's the question you should be chewing on..

If Ogbia is Ibo Goodluck Jonathan is from Ogbia, so why are ibos looking for another President, why did they say they haven't gotten President.
So what I'm trying to say is that anybody can write anything online, just tell me why the Bini are so far from the Atlantic ocean, when there were no record of war with Ijaw that pushed Bini back back so far away from the ocean.
