Gospel2Day:


Eko is NOT the entirety of what is now known as Lagos State.
Indigenes of Ikorodu, Badagry, Epe, Alimosho, Oshodi, etc were NEVER colonized by any Edo or Benin people.
Few people recognize Ọba of Lagos, his influence starts and ends in his small territory.
So saying Benin colonized Lagos is stretching and twisting facts.
Be properly guided.
Shalom.

What kind of rubbish is this?


Where did I say that the Edo (the broad group of tribes collectively identifies as the Edo) colonized Lagos state?

Obviously there was no Lagos state by then so why would your mind be fixated on Lagos state?

Ayomi90:

You know what? Edo and Benin people are inconsequential, you guys are minority, you don't even make it up to major tribes in Nigeria yet your crime surpasses the ones done by major tribes. Lazy Edo boi, ur mates are working hard to earn good income u are doing cult up n down.

skull miner, so mining human parts is what u call hardworking? Kidnapping children and even adults from their hotel rooms for ritual purposes is what u tag hardworking.


Keep doing the hard work.

Krismas:
Sex is like food. There are those who think they cannot stand hunger. They may even steal food if they can as a result. In the Bible a certain man sold his birthright for a plate of beans, thinking hunger cud kill him. Wen this people are faced with situations where they are forced to go hungry for a long spell, then they will easily find out, that hunger does not kill and the human is perfectly capable of going without food for 40days. As for invisible forces, it isn’t only in Africa, we believe in witchcraft. They are called wickers in England and they have a church in America. Am not going to ask u to believe witches exist and have diabolical powers. The fact is, that’s d case.

Fine, if you say so. Although people have killed just because of food, people have also killed because they are starved of food. When do people react even violently? When they are starved if you and i turned up in a middle of a dessert with no food and left to starve to death i am sure i would kill and eat you to stay alive so even if you see sex as food people could still harm other people co's of food. i know i would kill another human for food to feed my kids to stay alive if i have to

Witches are not invisible forces like you mentioned earlier, they are humans you can see them, witches are also a form of believe just because they call themselves witches doesn't mean they have some sort of supernatural powers (just like you may have watched in movies) if you shoot or stab them they will die. They are people! Wickers (i was born and bred in East london England ) are just people who pretend to be witches, just like people would dress up in halloween costumes and pretend to be dracula, the devil or Aliens. They may also have a church in America but their church cannot be any different from the ussual nigerian or african churches were people call themselves pastors while scamming their gullible followers with fake miracles, false hopes and fake healings. So all that "wickers" crap or witches church in America are all hocus pocus just like the unexistence so called invisible forces with the Oba. if they really are supernaturally powerful let them tell us how to cure cancer and other terminal illnesses. One of my youth friends also dresses up as a "Goth" as in "Gothic" (blood sucking witch) some sort of Harry potter movie believes, she believed she can fly at night and that, when she was being bullied at school because of it she could do nada! She is grown out of it now anyway. She slept in my house one time, i asked her so! where did you fly last night as a witch while you were lying drunk in my bed?

If you give me the details of the witches church in America i can go verify as i ve said numerous times on here i believe in facts.

If two people are left on an island, one may eat the other as u say. Wot am saying is, his education begins wen he has no option anymore. As in, no-one else to eat, den he will adapt to hunger. Ur opinion on Wicker is entirely ur own opinion. There are other opinions. I have watched some on Utube. In Africa, a witch needs to sleep first in-order to have astral powers. As for curing cancer, diabolical powers cannot be channeled to good ends. The devil cannot do good

FERNANDEZISBACK:
She might not have understood that Oba of Benin Omo N’Oba N’Edo Uku-Akpolokpolo OGIDIGAN, Oba Ewuare 2, ain't your regular politically appointed king..you don't joke with him..
Now that she acknowledged her mistake and tendered an apology she is forgiven...
Oba ghato kpere

Stop using she for it

What is special about that oba of benin that they are threatening to kill him/her?
Una know whether the oba na gay?

Mmm..... sounds interesting. why would one adapt to not having sex when they can have all the sex the can get? Why would one even starve them selves of sex? Tell you what! I am not going to pretend i understand it. Co's i don't



Again this boils down to believes, you believe all that fairies about witches and invisible forces, i don't i believe in facts, reality and what i can experience or touch diabolical is just a form of brainwashing too it doesn't exist. Why would i waste my time going diabolical on some one when i can just shoot or stab them to harm them? diabolical things doesn't exist, if it does countries wouldn't need Armies, police or weapons, just diabolic the hell outa your enemies, why have these diabolical witches in naigeria not dealt with boko haramites? as you said these witches are not into inventing cancer cures they only harms people... Diabolic cannot be proven in court. peharps because i wasn't raised in naigeria that is why i find these things ridiculous. You are allowed to believe them it's entirely up to you. Me? I don't believe.

If you give me the details of the witches church in America i will be happy to go there and find out. Or did you just made that shit up?

Bobrisky tenders an apology after Benin people slammed him for asking the revered Oba of Benin to come and marry him

Bob who is in Benin City for an event organised by interior designer Ehi Ogbebor arrived yesterday and as he was being driven in a convoy, he made a video where he was showing his excitement for being in the city.

While speaking, he hailed himself for being a "pretty woman" and then mentioned that the Oba should come and marry him.

Some Edo people did not find it funny and they threatened they were going to attack him if they see him.

He was forced to make another video apologising for his comment.

That's a myth, your story is only shared by your fathers and mother's, give me a link to anywhere else. A son can not give birth to his father. We are different fool, how are we alike?

Everyone knows there is a big difference between an Edo man and Yoruba man. Am not saying we are same people, am saying, an exiled Benin Prince became king in ile'ife, who is reffered to as Oduduwa. Check the timelines, what you are saying is stories old people share with kids...give me one link elsewhere that backs up your story. How can a lion and hyena be brothers, the difference will tell you. Stop sharing grand ma stories, built to sooth your egos, we need verified fact, from independent sources.

How can a Benin Prince Come to Yorubaland as being make the king if there was not any connection between them that you are all hidding.

Yoruba do things for reasons, we all accepted that you have thoroughly become a prodigal son and refuse to recognize your ancestral home.... But you can deny that fact that your people firstly settled in ile-ife which they pronounced as "Uhe".

I am telling you a good history that you have never heard about, I understand that it will shock you but you need to chill first, I you wanna learn from me.

We have different gods, Benin have their own names, peculiar to Edos, if you see any Benin with Yoruba name, maybe one of the parent is Yoruba, I have never seen a pure Edo or Benin with Yoruba name. The Oduduwa issue is the only similarity...we have different gods and sacrifices, different origins make up Itsekiris, if a part of them agree they are Yorubas, that's their own...I tell you categorically, Edo people have been in existence thousands of years, before the Oduduwa and Oranmiyan episode. This is fact. How can a son bore a father, or how can we come from you when we have existed as a kingdom before these episodes... common sense shows it does not match. Remember that Edo warriors use to tax merchants and people at Isale Eko...Erelu Dosunmu in an interview clearly stated she is Benin, even the Oba of Lagos clearly stated that the Oba of Lagos stool is an extension of the Oba of Benin kingship. This clearly shows you who the father is, and who came first. Check this link to see the Oba of Lagos narrative https://m.facebook.com/112331836013444/photos/a.112747775971850/163353094244651/

Who is father who is son??.... Don't pick the story off head, let's start from where you forefathers are coming down southward from Egypt.... They settled up with Yorubas and lived in ile-ife for hundreds of years.

That shows that, Yorubas are strongly existing before you..... The issue of Oduduwa came afterwards and we don't need to twist the story to make a point.

What I am saying is that, Your forefathers are living under Yoruba Government in "Uhe" (lie-ife) before coming down to find their tiny empire.

The story is simple but the hatred you have Yorubas won't make you understand.

What year, what century?

You are talking about living in Ile'Ife for hundreds of years, I agree, Ile'Ife is Yoruba land, but Edo people have existed for thousands of years before the Ile'Ife Oduduwa episode.

We had vast lands in Benin Kingdom, Ile'ife is not our land, now you sound shallow and uninformed about the topic

No one is claiming ile'Ife as Edo land, am saying an Edo Prince went there, Ile'Ife is Yoruba land of course. No hate here, just debate. I love Yorubas, the correct history must be known.

[b]The issue of Oduduwa happened in 12th century while some folk history are claiming that Benin Kingdom started in 11th century.

Obatala, the father of Eze chima who later found Onitsha has been rulling Ile-Ife from 9th century..... He ruled like pharao which make many people hate him.

Meanwhile The greatest forefathers of Yoruba people (Orunmila) give birth to Edo ancestor and the father of igbos (Obatala).[/b]

It is an undisputed fact that Oduduwa was strong man, he called him self the son of sky God and this make people to knew that his father is one of the son of Orunmila (the sky lord) that has found a new city in unknown location.

Oduduwa bravery with the support of Yoruba people contributed to how he fought a strong war with Obatala, he won and took the control of Ile-ife.

Obatala and his son escaped down to Igbo-Mokun in shame, they are the Ugbo people of today in Ondo..... Obatala died in Ondo while his son.. Eze chima went to Benin, he lived there for years before he found a new city called Onitsha.

One thing you guy don't know is that, Orunmila found ile-ife not Oduduwa, Oduduwa become a respected man because of his contribution in how he saved the people of Ife from Obatala and his son Eze-chima who are now are the founders of part of Igbo land today.

It's clear to see who the conquerors are, it's clear to see that we are very different people, but the Benin empire spread out to other parts of the South, collecting taxes and passage levies, this was documented by the Portuguese. You get the discussion wrong, the discussion is about Oduduwa and Oranmiyan, everyone knows Edo and Yorubas are different people, but seems only you don't, sorry keep believing fables. I don't argue with closed minded people, I made my point clear. Case closed. You are talking 12th century, am talking BC, before Christ. The Oduduwa episode happened just about 800years ago, the Benin empire has existed for more than 5000years. You clearly are ignorant and just spitting fables.

Ondo is use to be part of benin kingdom.... Yoruba people collect am, and even collect some part of Benin Kingdom to reduce it to tiny land.

We Gave you the name Bini that you are bearing, not less than 30 binin king are buried in Yorubaland before the prodigal generation grown and stop that traditions.

Yoruba no dey fight Benin because we see you as son of Orunmila that has lost his history and adducted fables and goat and dog stories..... Time shall come that you will know how might Yorubas is, you will beg to come back to us but we will kick you out.

It's all love bro, just history. Not trying to brag or anything...but believe what you may, we can agree to disagree. Yes I know we do have similarities South south and Southwest. But we are from different ancestry, this is my point. Take some time to trace the timelines, you will see you are mistaken in your account...of course we all know people disrupt history to suit their narrative, to soothe their ego etc, but it's important to use neutral narratives, that was why I mentioned Oba of Lagos, Erelu Dosunmu interviews, and the Portuguese documented narratives. These people don't have a reason to lie. Portuguese was a world power then, remember. Am a student of history, it's important we push the right narratives, just for the sake of it. History happened, that was then, this is now, nobody is dragging anybody's land. Lagos belong to Yoruba people, I only mentioned taxing at Lagos Island areas, and along routes to Ports by the Benin King then, to show the influence of the Empire, even down to the 16th and 18th century, the influence waned in the mid 18th century, 1850's period, due to the British interference. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Lagos It was the creation of states that led to Ondo, etc, people move, those people in Ondo today are indigenous Yorubas, over time people move from place to place. During the regionalisation a lot of movement took place and central government started taking shape, in form of regional governing authorities. There was no war to conquer land space from the Edo people, it was never documented, people move, geographics change over time, for varied reasons.

What kind of rubbish is this?


Where did I say that the Edo (the broad group of tribes collectively identifies as the Edo) colonized Lagos state?

Obviously there was no Lagos state by then so why would your mind be fixated on Lagos state?

Do you know the meaning of "rubbish"?
Good day.
