Now I know why these Benin people hate Yoruba for no reason. Their oba is a Yoruba man of yoruba ancestry grin
So now you define history as "whatever a pro Yoruba blogger says" and whatever is speculated in a unknown, undated and un referenced paper ? So long it claims Benin is Yoruba.
For your info, the only reason an Edo would not like you guys is because of your unending harassment and your "I know Benin better than Benin people" attitude and your unending attempts at forcing your culture and fairytales upon others, that is also what made the Oba of Benin to lead the Midwest out of the western region. You guys are just crazy.

You clearly lack understanding of history and seem to believe the current political structure in the land mass of Nigeria has always been in place.
Let me open your eyes a little, here is a Precolonial map of Africa, locate Benin on it, and look for Ife on it. That will tell you the difference in importance between Benin empire and Ife village !
Do you know how insulting it is to say that the king of a large sovereign country got his crown from a village head called Oni of Ife ?

Most of you guys don't understand that Benin Kingdom/empire was a country ! Ab independent country until it lost a war to the UK! What exactly was Ife if not a village !
you failed to understand that Ife kingdom was a power block during the time of Oduduwa and Okanbi that gave birth to Oranmiyan that became the first Oba of Benin then passed it down to his son Eweka 1 .

These happened several years before British Invasion ,that Rome is a small country now does not mean it’s not one of the greatest empire ever witnessed in human history.


And the map you posted seems to be fake cos of the area kingdom of Benin covered even I couldn’t find Oyo empire that’s greater than Benin empire on the map not even the northern part of present day Nigeria.

As long as it is not in Ilorin, no problem. Instead of this Hot of Ife to provide palliatives for his Osun IDPs who are protesting, he is presenting crown to another useless monarch who has no purpose in modern society. Monarchs everywhere, purpose = nothing.

You say he has no purpose in modern society, yet you expect him to provide palliatives.

If he has no purpose, let him be.

What the yoruba people are passing through in Kwara state is a very sad one.

The principal King in ILORIN, the Emir of Ilorin is a fulani.

This is a state where the yoruba are in a sizeable majority.

As a result of the accident of history they are treated as minority.

The yoruba being a traditionalist by their culture are relegated to the background.

All the principal traditional authority is exercised by the Emir of Ilorin and the yoruba there have been living in Kwara state as if their basic right and freedom is not being trampled upon.

The Emir of Ilorin recently banned a yoruba princesses for attempting to organize a yoruba traditional festival which the Fulani king felt was feltish and against the culture of the Fulani Masters in Ilorin who are themselves muslims.

Even Professor Wole Soyinka had to respond to this ill treatment of the yorubas in Kwara state.

YORUBA STOP PRETENDING YOU HAVE A BIG PROBLEM IN KWARA STATE.

UNFORTANATELY EX-PRESIDENT OLUSEGUN OBASANJO AND CHIEF OBAFEMI AWOLOWO ALL PRETEND NEVER TO KNOW THE PROBLEM IN KWARA STATE.

The yoruba there find themselves in an unfortunate circumstances.

This shows your level of comprehension, insulting a whole tribe because of what one person wrote, do you even know the person's tribe?

What if this person isn't even edo, yoruba or an individual from the east.

None of your kings since Eweka I, the son of Oranmiyan ever denied their Ife origin.

The current British monarchy came from "inconsequential" Germans.
The pope with zero army in the year past were installing powerful kings in Europe.

BTW, there are many precolonial maps, it is dumb to ignore others and choose one that
suits your narrative.

Nobody is denying what Benin empire was but fact is fact!

Stop reading history upside down because you are yoruba. The first ooni of ife is a Benin prince who wondered away because he was the heir but because of politics he wasn’t made king. He went and started the Ife kingdom. Yes later, the bini gods were angry and they told the chief priest to go and locate him in ife to return home to his kindgom. He said he was too old when the bini delegation reach ife so he sent his son to come to Benin. His son came to Benin and started the oba dynasty.

Before the oba dynasty in Benin, it was the Ogiso dynasty , then the ogiame dynasty before the oba dynasty. Benin kingdom long existed before Ife kingdom. Also, Oba is a bini word not yoruba word.

Yoruba kings were never called oba. Yorubas copied it from binis. Ooni of Ife: Kabiyesi (his name) there was no oba. Same with Aalafin of oyo.

Stop distorting history.

Ooni, speaking in Yoruba, said, “The crown presented today to Oba Sharafadeen Babalola is from the Geisi Ruling House, Ile-Ife. It is the grace I enjoy, being the king. The crown will bring peace, harmony and tranquility to Ijagbo.
Aaşe wa!

Congratulations Kabiyesi, congratulations to the kingdom of Ijagbo. This is how most Yoruba Alaiyeluwa and royalty that was started by an Ile Ife Prince like the Yoruba Oba of Benin royalty in Benin etc, got their crown from Ile Ife.

Lies. For the record, the Oba of Benin did not get his crown from Ife.

I have been to the national museum in Benin city and Oranmiyan was written there as the first Oba . Even the current Oba of Benin publicly said it but the only addendum to your history is that Oduduwa is your lost /exiled prince .

Stop spreading ignorance. Historically there is Bini Kingdom but it's an appendage of Oyo Empire. It's Cultural diffusion that brought about the Bini dialect which is still understood by the Ijebus due to proximity. Is there any other place you have Bini colony except in Edo State because they are ethnic group of the Yoruba Tribe. The cultural elements of the Binis shows that they are from the Yoruba Tribe. Bini dialect is just like, Ijebu dialect, Awori dialect, Egba dialect, Ekiti dialect, Itshekiri dialect and other dialect of the Yoruba language.

First of all, there is no king in Bini before Ife grandson came to power!
Bini had Ogisos.
Ask yourself why Bini abandoned Ogiso for Oba title?

Kingdom or principality do not change their leaders title just for fun.
Oba title was in recognition of the foreign origin of Eweka.
If it was just business as usual, he would have been an Ogiso too.
It is not just the title that changed, Eweka heralded expansion of Benin
more than all the Ogisos combined!

The late Oba who felt slighted that his ancestor was from Ife concocted the
tale of a wandering prince.


The first ooni of ife is a Benin prince who wondered
I can now see you are very ignorant.
Oduduwa was not the first Ooni of Ife.
Ooni throne predate him and neither was he a Bini prince.
He was a full blooded local.
It is just like claiming that Alexander the Great is the first king of Macedonia
because of his popularity and legacy.

Bini chiefs having failed to solve the perenial leadership crisis in their land went to
Ife to seek solution. That is how an Ife grandson became the first Oba of Bini.
