It doesn't matter. The woman has no fault and I don't blame her for anything. The land you call home today, for forebears fought, killed and maimed others to hold that land down. The Queen is not a democrat. She was the leader of a kingdom, an empire. They don't smile. Everything they did, they did for the good of their kingdom first before considering others. That's how every kingdom was run in the days of old. You complain because your own kingdom was outgunned, outfought, outmaneuvered and then subsequently plundered. It's all part of the package.

Oyo empire, Benin empire, etc were warriors who also killed and plundered other empires. Don't be emotional about it. It's just how the world worked and still works. Your politicians are doing it to you now terrorising, stealing, and killing people via religious intolerance etc. The US is also doing it to the world. Russia is doing it to Ukrained and did it to Georgia. So long as the sun shines, people would always want to rule others.

It seems you know her very well to defend her, did you attend the same school?

I am Igbo , we never fought anyone to claim any land ...even the Igbo empire NRI never fought anyone it was a religious empire

Arochukwu had the opportunity to conquer most president day akwa Ibom , rivers but never did

When ndoki founded bonny it was uninhabited ...when jaja founded opobo it was uninhabited

Igbos are not known to fight other people's land

Did Igbos just appear in South East Nigeria, or they migrated to their present location?
Do you have the history of what they did or where they settled before migrating to Nigeria? Don't be too sure your ancestors did not kill others in the past.

Well said. I wonder how people pretend to be blind to this fact of life.
I use the word "pretend" because if the fortunes were reversed and their forebears were the conquerors, these same people would be feeling quite accomplished and proud of their heritage.
Even in today's world, might is right and only the strong survive. That is the reality of life and evolution.
All the tribalism we witness in our country today, is driven by this same quest for power and dominance and is a source of pride for some people.
Yet you see the same people calling for abolition of a people's monarchy while upholding and taking pride in their own.
They pretend not to know that our African empires were earned by war and plunder not by democratic negotiation.
They think our traditional rulers were elected instead of being from a stock of local warriors who plundered other peoples lands and resources.
How does your rant changes anything,are people not supposed to be mad at bastards that took Thier Fathers and mothers as slaves,killed and maimed them.
I hope someone tortures and kill your mother and your loved ones,let's see how happy you will be to talk about them in death.

Wow!!!

God bless you big for this raw truth Sir! This is exactly what I have been explaining to my people here who have been blaming the Queen and his forebears.

It's hypocrisy that a Bini man would blame the Brits and label Benin a great Empire. Same applies to Oyo, Arochukwu and the rest.

How did Benin grow from becoming a kingdom under the Ogisos to becoming an Empire? Did all the kingdoms that fell under Benin do that willing or was it by conquest? How did Usman Dan Fodio capture and conquer the Hausa city states? Who began selling and exchanging their kinsmen for common things like gunpowder, mirrors, combs, dry guns and the rest?

These are the questions a true historian should always ask himself to better judge history from the standpoint of truth.

Africans should let go of the past cause our ancestors did worse.

Story for the gods.
You guys are known for twisting history to your favor,
so rest with your distorted and twisted history.
Between the Ibibios and the Aro, which tribe first arrived at that place
And when did the Efiks join the Aros to fight their Ibibio brothers

Thank God the Ibibios even left that good-for-nothing place and migrated further southwards into the promised land.
imagine how you are trying to claim Opobo to the Igbos in this present era of civilization undecided

it is on record that some Aro merchants Igbo of extraction and their mercenaries captured and sold many Ibibios and other groups as slaves to the Europeans.

Aro-Ibibio Wars: https://military-history.fandom.com/wiki/Aro-Ibibio_Wars

Oh please go read your history ngwa towns has zero border with Ibibio maybe ndoki

UK is rooted in culture. They share the same royal culture as the great yorubas. It seems it was Scotand that birthed the british monarchy. All the queen's important ritual rites take place in Edinburgh. The other rites in london are mere formalities.

Those Edinburgh buildings are old but still standing solid. That's masterpiece cool

The same colonial fvckers that cut out my ancestors from human development. When people were making discovery in physics, medicen, biology. Cars were produced, train built, aircrafts manufactured...your/my ancestors were slaves, were under forced labour & working day/night in various plantation camps.


Thanks to the Tokugawa Clan in Japan & Meiji Emperor that rejected these wereys when they came to Japan disguising as missionary workers, they rather promoted Confucianism & the Shinto religion.

Oga please stop this! You're 100% WRONG! I am Igbo too and I'll tell you the truth.

NO TRIBE/PEOPLE/KINGDOM/NATION IS 100% HOMOGENEOUS. By virtue of the fact that humans are motile, it means that people migrate from different parts at some point in history to settle in their current locations.

You should go and read up the story of Arondizuogu in Imo so you can understand better.

My own clan migrated from somewhere and settled in her present location. In some years time, my clan dispossessed the original owners and claimed more land after the war. Some years later, the Aros (from Arochukwu came to settle) and my people disagreed. Battle ensued, my people formed and alliance with neighbouring 5 clans, an alliance which stands till today, and the Aros were defeated. Later on, the Aros came pleading because of the strategic position of my town to their trade and movement across Igboland, they begged to be taken as settlers and not indigenes. After much discussions and deliberations, they were given some parcels of land in the outskirts of 3 villages with the understanding that they would be integrated as kindreds in the villages but never allowed to form their own village because of the common fear in Igboland then about the Aros. These Aros are now indigenes of my clan today.

I'm just giving you a small rundown on our history so you can know that your/my/our forefathers fought and killed for the lands we have today.

Explorers:
The Crown of Scotland was placed on Her Majesty's coffin in Edinburgh's St Giles Cathedral as her son King Charles and his siblings watched on.

The sombre moment was part of the service in the heart of the Scottish capital this afternoon.

Made from gold, silver and precious gems, the crown is the centrepiece of the Honours of Scotland which are the oldest Crown jewels in Britain and among the oldest in Europe.

The crown was made in its current form in 1540 for King James V of Scotland.

In its earliest form, the crown dates back to 1503, when it was depicted being worn by King James IV.

The Queen had herself held the crown in the same church, St Giles' Kirk just after her coronation.
