The king decided to play inside mud. He opened his mouth waaaaa like a 5 year old petulant child.

Reno throwing shades

Can someone tell me what Reno meant by the bolded?

"I am not for or against what HRM Ewuare II said. I am just for HRM Ewuare II. "We do not say you should agree with him. But even if you must disagree, do so with the utmost respect. This is not some warrant chief created by the British. This is the scion of a dynasty that created the greatest civilisation in Black Africa. Show some respect!"

Racoon:
Let's see when the civilisation of our brethren started since the Benin kingdom is the longest existing empire in Nigeria that vehemently refused colonisation by the western imperialists.

Yet the British put his grandfather inside shackles with lock and key. Then exiled him to calabar where he eventually died never to see his village again.

Which of the King are you shading?

If Pre-colonial Nigeria had two or more Kings like the Oba of Benin, Nigeria wouldn't exist today and that would have been better for those known as Nigerians today.

Did anyone from present day Southeast Nigeria put up a fight against the British/colonialism?

None...

spoken like a dunce.
The igbos put up the greatest resistance against the British in Africa for 30 years. Get educated on the ekumeku war.

Oba should respect himself

He called for his current predicament

I am sure he expected the backlash

Draw nearer to receive sense resetting slaps. I can cure ya generational madness.

Greyworld:


If not foolishness, pray tell what the shade is about. He is pained he is not Igbo. The warrant chiefs or not Indirect rule failed in the east but we know whose kings bowed to the British queen (Princess perhaps) and those that where deposed and exiled.

We know also from history those who revolted against imperialism. If the East doesn't have Kings original is nothing to mock, Isreal never had kings but judges.

Funny enough, in Nigeria today a king can be deposed by a mare governor even the highly respected Emir/ Emirate of Kano so rest.

After they chained and imprisoned the father. The oldest son goes ahead and bows to those that disgraced and imprisoned his father.

Akenzua 2 bowing to the young Elizabeth in 1956. A conquered bowing to the conqueror.

Sense of diplomacy could v saved ofonrawen from that eternal disgrace.

Tinubu don disapoint this one he wan use style gain Bini and Igbo trust again

Reno is not mentality okay. Don't count on him.

Oba Of Benin must be Respected
Everyone agrees


Even though if Ooni of Ife should go to
Benin to Claim he is the owner of the Benin Throne and Kingdom which he rightly is
we will still respectfully ask him

Ah ? Kabiyesi Kilode
Baba a mo wipe oto ni
Omo yin ni Benin
Sugbon Baba e ba ma se be


Ah ? Kabiyesi Why?
Even though everyone knows it is true
that Benin na your Pikin
Baba , you don't' need to rub their faces in it

As a Christian I must say
It is one thing to mount a Throne
It is another thing entirely for God to give Power to a Monarch.
God Almighty truly Gave Queen Elizabeth of England and Great Britain Power
Somebody who entire Nations and kingdoms never set their eyes on
Yet she was effectively ruling them from 6000km away in London

That one is only God's doing it was not Ordinary

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA
THAT GUY IS DAFT
DID HE JUST SAY GREATEST BLACK CIVILIZATION

BINI THATS EVEN A COLONY OF THE YARIBAS
BINI THAT WERE DEFEATED SQUARELY BY AGBOR IN A SINGLE BATTLE IN 1770
BINI THAT WE CANT TRACE ANY MEANINGFUL BLACK INNOVATION OR TECHNOLOGY TO.
THEY COULDNT EVEN INVENT THEIR OWN CALENDER TO TRACK TIME IN REAL SENSE
THEY DONT EVEN HAVE THIER OWN GODS EXCEPT THOSE BORROWED FROM THE Yoruba LIKE OGUN, OBATALA, ETC
BINI THAT WASNT EVEN AN EMPIRE
BINI THAT WOULD ALWAYS LEAN ON THE Yoruba FOR MANPOWER IN TIMES OF WAR
BINI THAT ALMOST ALL THIER OBA MUST BE BURIED IN ILE IFE

BINI THAT CAME INTO EXISTENCE IN 1400s

Area father don drop quote.
Talk say the oba dey yarn okpata. Area father talk say APC don tamper with the Bini king sense.

Padipadi:
From the analysis, Reno just opened the anus of Ile-Ibinu and their King. He's not always sincere cos this post ended up shading Ile-Ibinu people and throwing stray punch to Yeèböws. Reno is an author of confusion. In fact, he was recruited and given broom since June 2022 but opposition parties and their supporters didn't know.
Also, Ile-Ibinu people, there's no price in being proud. Una proud somehow. Must you exalt ya culture to denigrate others? Write ya history the way you like, respect others when they write their own too.
In fact, tragedy of 1897 is enough to humble una. That unfortunate incident would v been prevented if Ofonrawen used diplomacy.
Na wisdom Yorubas dey use to survive o! That's why some ignoramus call them cowards but doesn't understand that youncioosebya battles wisely. It's he who lives to tell another day that won the war.

To nuke you dey hungry me. You v been nothing but a bigot. All your pains against APC is cos those you are ass-licking didn't win.
You can't do more than people like TonyeBacarnistar of 2014-2015 GEJ era. Only garri filled up ya brain. Bloody gay-tool of losing politicians!

If not for foolishness that runs in your family, how can you use a tribal slur against igbos and then accuse another of bigotry?

This is crazy

Where you blind when Reno Omocry used slurs against you n ya people.
You should be glad Yorubas are helping you to train Ile-Ibinu pipu cos they are loosed!
The post you quoted was to expose insult on you n ya people by Reno. Don't shift anger on me. I m innocent!

I KNOW ITS BECAUSE YOURE USELESS AND DUMB THAT WHY YOUR PARENTS DIDNT SEND YOU TO SCHOOL
THE OBA OF BINI IS A COLONY OF Yoruba LAND WHO WAS CONQURED BY THE BRITISH IN LESS THAN 3MONTHS
WITH THE KIND OF MIGHT AND TERRITORIAL INFLUENCE YOU LOT DELUSIONALLY ALLOT TO BINI KINGDOM ONE WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THEY WOULD PUT IN SERIOUS RESISTANCE FOR DECADES OR EVEN ONE YEAR OR EVEN DEFEAT THE BRITISH TO PROVE THE WEIGHT AND MIGHT THE KINGDOM POSSES AND LIVE TO ITS NAME

OR DIDNT YOUR READ OF ETHIOPIA AND HOW THE FOUGHT GALLANTLY AND REFUSED TO BE COLONIZED

BUT THE SAID KINGDOM WAS DESTROYED AND RAZED DOWN AND THIER OBA WAS CAPTURED LIKE SARDINE AND SENT ON EXILE LIKE ORDINARY CHIPS

ALSO IF YOUR PARENTS HAD SENT YOU TO SCHOOL YOUD HAVE KNOWN THE IGBOS TERRITORY UNLIKE THE BINI N YARIBAS DIDNT REALLY OPERATE A MONARCHICAL SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT BUT A THEOCRATIC AND DEMOCRATIC ONE. A MORE COMPLEX AND ADVANCED SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT AND THIS GAVE THE BRISTISH TOUGH TIME TO CONQUER

THRY FOUGHT EKUMEKU WAR FOR 30 SOLID YEARS BEFORE THEY COULD SUBDUE THAT IGBOID KINGDOM, THEY FOUGHT AROS FOR CLOSE TO TWO YEARS BEFORE THEY COULD SUBDUE. AND EACH ACCOUNT OF THE EVENT WERE DESCRIBED AS A "FIERCE RESISTANCE".

THE BRITISH EVEN AFTER VICTORY HAD TO CREATE WARRANT CHIEFS AND THEY WERE ALSO FIERCELY RESISTED THAT ITS EVEN LED TO A RIOT ORCHESTRATED AND CARRIED OUT BY WOMEN- ABA WOMEN RIOT OF 1929

THEY WAR BETWEEN THE BRISTISH AND BINI KINGDOM WAS NOT FIRECE. IT WAS MORE LIKE A WALKOVER FOR THEM

SO NEXT TIME SHUT THE HELL UP AND PUT SOME RESPECT TO THE IGBO NATION

LEST I FORGET THE BIAFRA FORCES ALSO CAPTURED BENIN IN LESS THAN 24HRS WITH THE OBA OF BINI AS HEAD OF THE TRADITIONAL COUNCIL. YOU DEY MENT

Lol. He avoided confronting yorubas and kept making veiled attack on Igbos. Clowns everywhere

sreamsense:
What is Omokri saying? Oba never respected himself by saying that kind of things in the public in the first place. He allowed igbo distorted history about Lagos to enter his head and came out to say that kind of things in the public. So, oba is also conveting Lagos to the extent of saying that kind of things out in this 21st century. Why saying that out in the first place since he knows such history can't achieve any meaninful result?

Haha, Igbo again. No content without Igbo

Benin was defeated easily, it was Igbos that put the strongest resistance

jmoore:
Reno the FOOL. If it was Igbo people, he will start saying how Igbo people don't respect people.

Why can't he use same words he used previously?

Let Oba try Igbos, he will be shred to pieces. Who cares what Reno will rant thereafter

Greyworld:


The guy is a dunce... like shading Igbo in a matter thats between two other tribe is petty. For crying out loud no body cares where or who first ruled any body in 2023.

The British prime minister is Indian, a Kenyan was American president for 8 solid years and no body knows the History, birth place or date, Parents or real name of Nigeria's current president.

Igbos remain their nemesis

Padipadi:

Not those ones alone o, it's time Yorubas tell Benin what the truth is and who influenced who past.
Benin has so many Yoruba names, insignia etc that they can't trace it's meaning in Benin language, words, alphabets, sentence etc except in Yoruba language.
The Olu of Warri that mad boy called Reno is taking about, what's the meaning of Olu?
Isn't it Oluomo? What's the meaning of Olu in Warri and Benin language?
Those Warri people too, are they not influenced by Yoruba cultures? No be the same culture wey colonised their Benins come spread from Benin to Warri?
If Olu of Warri is the son of Oba of Benin who's a Yorubaman by blood, then Olu of Warri sef ba Yorubaman. So if I say Yorubas owned Warri, I use my ogogoro resembled the Oba wey komot his palace go talk trash for Lagos.

To Lagos matters, all insignia, language of all things in Lagos depict Yorubas. The issue of Benin there is explained below with evidences.

Lagos (Lagos de curamo) is a Portuguese word meaning lakes. As you all know, Lagos has many lakes. Also, in Yoruba language, the word Eko or Oko means Farm.
Evidence: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Lagos#:~:text=Lagos%20means%20%22lakes%22%20in%20Portuguese,%22%20and%20later%20%22Lagos%22.

Ancient Lagos was used for farming by Olofin who was the first ruler of Lagos before Ashipa. Both Olofin and Ashipa are Yorubamen.
The first Oba of Lagos is Ashipa a man from Awori tribe of Yorubas.
He went to Benin as a war Chief cos he had dispute with Olofin, another Yoruba chief who was the ruler of Lagos at that time. Around this time, the Oba of Benin had trae routes from Benin to Lagos & probably saw it as an opportunity to annex Lagos cos it's a place where trade was booming at that time cos of it's nearness to the sea. It's to be noted that Ashipa had access to Benin palace via trade. So he was assisted with warriors who defeated Olofin. Ashipa, a Yorubaman became first king of Lagos and his descendants were kings till today.

So if the Oba of Benin that made recent talk must talk, he should only talk about the influence of Benin in Lagos Island which happens btw the fight of Ashipa and Olofin and not that Benins owned or founded Lagos.

Lastly, Lagos is Yorubaland. The language, culture, tradition and everything is Yoruba and it's foundation is Yoruba. However at various points, it has mixed with other tribes. Even in present day, Igbos, Hausas dominated some parts of the state and I hope in future, Hausas or Igbos won't come and lay some claims.

It's important to know history and understand history with common sense.
For Yorubas, a pdf of their history can be gotten here. It's named History of Yorubas by Rev Samuel Johnson. It's the most concrete do far as at 2023 AD. Forgotten Books

History of the Yorubas

Itshekiri and Aworis are yoruboid tribes that Benin subjugated

KingKO22:
Binin found Lagos fine but why are they not selling Land or collecting tax ?


The Binin come all d way from Edo through, Ore, Ijebu-Ode and Sagam the Yoruba lands then found Lagos that is sounded by Yoruba land 😄🤣😂😂 is that not Madness 😂🤣😄😄


Only brainwashed IPOBidients can believe this bulllllshiiit mhen 😄🤣

As usual, he direct his anger on the wrong people

Padipadi:

He just fired stray bullet to Igbos. Those ones sef don't know Benins and south south people detest them. It's Yorubas they ll be disrespecting.

All of you are same cowardly people looking for attention from your superiors. It's a big shame you don't know that powerful king is an inferior political evolution

Had it been it was Igbos that insulted Oba Reno wouldn't be this diplomatic. He's still trying to please Tinubu

Ogene001:

Itshekiri and Aworis are yoruboid tribes that Benin subjugated

Agreed.

ajailer:
Reno ended up making fun of the ibos, this guy is just something else. We dey talk about Oba of Benin and Lagos here but he still find way rub salt inside dem ibo injury, who doesn't know that the "warrant chiefs" he is referring to here is the one the British colonialist created in the SE for lack of who they can hold accountable for the administration in that area.

Op sef, lack of sense dey worry am.

Warrant chief became necessary as indirect rule failed woefully. Igbos had advanced democracy unlike primitive monarchist. How can someone praise monarchy? Why did monarchy collapse all over the world including Britain?

Ogene001:

Sharap! Blame Bini gay-tool boys with small dîck roaming internet saying trash like their king

Greyworld:


Why would I shade a king?? I dont care about them since a governor can chase them from their Ancestral home. My point is the warrant chiefs statement, its not relevant.

Thank you. Igbos believe in elected officers not inherited throne. We have advanced into democracy while they are still worshipping feudal kings

Greyworld:


And in your mind mentioning igbos will make you prosper? It's between yourba and Bini. Dont be too swift to mention igbos in everything. Don't be unfortunate.

Na their way. Fulani takes Kwara, Benin takes Lagos but he is focused on Igbos
